 † † Jexazra took notice as Tal got up in his seat and jumped over him, slipping on his helmet and saying that he needed to get some rest, grabbing his blade.
The elf walked out of the dining hall before Jex even got a chance to say good-bye, but they might meet again sooner or later.
Focusing back on the girl, Snow, he thought he had caught a slight grimace on her face, and she dropped her hands below the table before looking up at him.
She had blushed a rather bright pink when Jex had dropped his fork in shock to her question of him helping her, and he absently wondered if he was making her nervous or something.
When he agreed to help, she grinned up at him, saying thank you to him.
" You're welcome," he said, mustering up a smile as well, before he listened to her again.
She said that maybe she could get some help on adapting, as it looked like there wasn't much of a chance of Kindness going away, and asking him what exactly they were.
Jex reclaimed his fork after having previously dropped it in his salad, and ate another forkful of vegetables before he replied.
" From what Chastity has told me in the past, these 'spirits' or 'others' as they are called, go by the name of virtues.
They exist to help mortal beings do what's right in life, in your case, Kindness helps you with being more polite and kind to others, whether you like it or not.
There are seven virtues, Chastity, Kindness, Temperance, Charity, Humility, Patience, and Diligence, though of the whereabouts of the other five virtues, I have no clue..."
He paused, allowing Chastity guide him for his next words, before he continued, " Though I think another reason why the spirits of the virtues are here is because their eviler counterparts have started to roam freely in the mortal world.
The counterparts of the virtues are called sins, and unlike virtues, sins try to push their hosts to do evil acts, and try to influence them to feel the same way as the sin spirit so they can take over the host's body.
Likewise, there are seven sins, Greed, Gluttony, Lust, Sloth, Envy, Wrath, and Pride. Each of the sins and virtues are rivals of each other, for Chastity, her rival is Lust, and for Kindness, I believe her rival would be Envy, I could be wrong, though.
As a matter of fact, Tal and I had a run-in with the Sin known as Wrath and his host on the way here to Mitomi High..."
Upon speaking that last part, Jex shuddered visibly, and quickly took another mouthful of vegetables, a small portion of the salad remaining on the tray in front of him.
If Wrath was roaming out and about, no doubt still somewhere in the forest, who knew what other sins would be lurking around here... † †

 Zander threw open the doors to the dining hall and ran over to get him some food. "I can't believe I made it" he started to shoveled the food in his mouth, and nearly choking. He stopped himself when he noticed people where looking at him. He took a seat far away from everyone an continued to eat. He took a few seconds to take off the guns on his back, witch reveled a Cross on the back of his jacket. He already fell in love with this place "I thought I was going to die, I should have rode a train, like teacher told me too, but no I had to walk the 500 bloody miles" he laughed at the thought of talking to himself. He said a silent prayer before continuing with his feast.

╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ The moment her question came willingly from her mouth she wanted to take it back. She didn't quite want to know what this voice in her head. To ask so was to stop denying that she really wasn't just crazy. That problem at least had a potential solution: A lot of pills and a therapist. Once the words were out she could only ride the tide where it brought her. Snow fell into a heavy silence as Jex spoke. She didn't get what he meant about spirits mostly, or how come these particular sins and virtues as they were called had to reside in a sentient host. She Imagined blocking out his words and just being flat out denying about it, but the words still came and she still heard. "Wrath, huh?" Snow nodded, staring at Jex like she could see past him, or maybe inside of him to where Chastity may be. She figured she had been a good sport about it so far, but when she actually thought about it as it could be truth, she felt stunned, gummed up. She swallowed and nodded again for no reason, processing her thoughts as the silence stretched further. "Ok. Are you an omnivore? Just wondering. You eat pasta, potatoes and salad. Your teeth don't look omnivore to me." the words came out before Snow realized she was trying to ease up the pressure. The answer didn't matter much but at least it would work to force her thoughts to stop spinning. Even Kindness gave her a break from scolding her at the bluntness of her question. Already she had a good idea of what actions got scolding. ╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

† † Jexazra took note of Snow's silence when he started speaking, noting her expressions.
She seemed to not understand a lot of what he was talking about, but Jex didn't bring it up, at least, not out loud.
' This might take a while,' he thought, wishing he was at least as smart as Tal was, the elf could probably be better at this than him...
Chastity seemed to have gone quiet for the moment, which was good, he didn't need any more headcases for now.
He ate another forkful of salad, doing his best to stomach the leafy greens, knowing that his stomach, which was more for meat, probably wouldn't accept it very well.
Well, he'd probably have a bellyache to worry about sometime later, the worst that could possibly happen was having to vomit it all back up sooner or later.
But hey, food was food, and Jex wasn't going to let it go to waste.
He looked up as Snow spoke, saying something about Wrath, nodding as she stared at him, as though she could see into his soul or something.
For some reason, that creeped him out, though Jex was trying his damnedest to keep his composure, he only nodded back as he continued eating the salad.
Snow seemed to be thinking about something, maybe concerning Kindness, so he'd leave her to those while he finished up his food, a strange silence setting over the table.
He thought he saw Snow nod again for some reason, though he wondered why, he hadn't said anything else ever since having to explain about the sins and virtues.
After a few more minutes of silence, Snow broke the ice, asking if he was an omnivore, saying she was just wondering because he ate pasta, potatoes, and a salad, and that his teeth didn't look omnivorous to her.
Jex was caught slightly off-guard, and he straightened himself, " E-Eh? I...um..."
He thought for a moment, it seemed little more than a random question, but he decided maybe answering it couldn't hurt, " I, uh, I'm a carnivore, yeah... I was... was just really hungry is all.
I suppose maybe I'm....expanding my boundaries... but... most likely my stomach will punish me later for eating a salad..."
Okay, maybe he could've answered that question a bit better, but right now, his mind was slightly awhirl with thoughts, it was hard for him to focus as of now.
Sighing deeply, he finished his salad, grabbing his drink nearby and taking the last swig of fruity, carbonated beverage, licking his lips as he finished.
" So..." he said, his eyes wandering around a bit, before he looked back to Snow, " You said Kindness showed up around a week ago, right? Are you sure you don't have any idea of how she...um... inhabited you?"
As he asked that question, his fingers automatically went up to the cross-shaped scar on the side of his right eye, a couple of claws lightly touching the section where the flesh was exposed, though had long since healed over.
Even if it was only slight, the contact was enough to make Jex shudder visibly, memories of his punishment, as well as the very reason why Chastity was inhabiting his body.
He shook his head a bit, the hand on the scar pulling away and moving down to the locket around his neck, gently thumbing at it to distract his mind from the memories as he looked to Snow. † †

╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Snow looked at him closely as she asked the question, bringing the topic away from what was making her uncomfortable. He seemed taken aback at her question, no surprise, as it was completely out of context of the conversation they'd been having. She tilted her head slightly at his flustered answers and mentally apologized to Kindness for flustering him. "Don't over do it." She said with some concern, thinking back to her home to the neighbors dog that would be seen eating grass, if only to puke it up in their front yard. Then again, she couldn't just dump him into the dog category. She didn't know how his digestive system and body systems worked. Or much of anything about his species for that matter. She'd never met anything, or rather, anyone like him before. He probably knew what he was doing for the most part. Jex sighed, curiously, and opened his mouth to begin speaking, but not without pulling his eyes away from her and looking around the dining hall making Snow wonder what was on his mind. He brought up Kindness again, to her chagrin. Biting her lip softly, she shook her head.
"Not a clue." Well, that wasn't entirely true. There was that dream she had the night she came here, but she couldn't even honestly say she understood that, so it wasn't worth getting into at the moment. At that moment a ringing sounded from her person and she started, reaching quickly to pull out her cell phone and turn off the alarm. She hadn't realized she had spent so much time talking. "Sorry, I've-" She noticed him shaking his head and moving his hand from his scar to the locket hanging from his neck. She wasn't the best at reading his expressions, as inhuman as his features were, but his body language was clear enough. He was troubled. "I've got to head to class, but are you alright?" She looked at him as she began to get up and pick up her empty plate, and Jex's dishes as well, at a quick prompt from Kindness. ╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

† † Jexazra had noticed Snow tilting her head at him slightly when he shakily answered the rather sudden and seemingly random question.
His ears flicked up as she said not to overdo it, he merely nodded in reply, " Right, I'll try not to..."
When he questioned her a bit more about how Kindness had come to be in her body, she shook her head, saying she had not a clue of how it came to happen.
Jex sighed a bit, and shrugged, " If you say so then, I'll take your word for it," he said, his eyes meeting hers once more.
Yet, he had a sort of feeling that she wasn't telling him something, but decided to just abandon the matter for now, not wanting to stir up Chastity again.
Besides, Snow didn't seem like she wanted to continue talking about Kindness either, that made two of them, for the most part.
A sudden ringing sound came from her, making Jex jump in his seat as his ears went up in alarm, his gaze still on her, though his eyes were wide, as if in fear.
His eyes followed her hand as it quickly reached into a pocket or something, pulling out some strange looking device, from which the sudden ringing noise was emanating.
She pressed something, and the noise immediately stopped.
Jex sighed a moment, relaxing, but kept his eyes on the strange device in her hands, trying to figure out what the hell it was.
His eyes shifted to her as she spoke, starting to apologize and say something, but paused before she could say anything more.
She seemed to be staring at him for some reason, Jex wasn't sure why, but he shrugged it off, continuing to play with the locket at his neck.
His eyes returned to hers as she said she needed to head to class, and asked if he was alright, starting to get up, grabbing up her empty plate, as well as his dishes.
Jex stood up, a small grin on his muzzle as he shifted the hand that had been thumbing his locket, moving it to brush some imaginary dust off his shoulder.
" I'm fine," he said, giving a rapid nod to her, " But thanks... if you want... I could walk with you to class, since I've nowhere else to be right now, either way, most likely I'm gonna go find a place to just chill and cool down, if you need someone to talk to, I'll be around, somewhere," he gave a sheepish smile as he spoke the last sentence, though Chastity had prompted him to offer to walk with Snow to class.
It was fine if she wanted to go by herself, since Jex would just go find a place to rest and relax either way, especially after all the crazy events he'd gone through today. † †

╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ The plates clattered against each other as Snow stacked them up with each other and balanced them with one arm as she pushed in her chair. She glanced at Jex as he nodded, claiming himself fine while brushing the fur on his shoulder. She gave him a long look, a question in her eyes before shrugging.
"Alright. As long as you are sure." She smiled and listened to him as she stepped a few feet away to set the dishes on a conveyor belt that took them back to the kitchen to be washed. She Shrugged at his suggestion.
"You don't really need to. It's basically just two buildings off of here. If you want to though." She said as she slipped her bag over her shoulder and started heading out the dining hall doors. ╚═ ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

† † Jexazra's ears flicked about as the plates clattered noisily as she stacked them, balancing them with one arm while pushing in her chair.
He noticed her glancing at him as he said he was fine, brushing his own shoulder quickly with a paw, and thought he caught a sort of inquisitive spark in her eyes.
She then merely shrugged, saying as long as he was sure, stepping away a bit and placing the stack of dirty dishes onto some strange moving rail-thing.
Being from a rather medieval styled realm, with mages, stone houses, loud, noisy taverns, and cobblestone roads, most of what he was seeing was new to him.
His mind instantly flashed back to that strange device Snow had pulled out earlier, it had been making an odd sort of ringing noise.
As much as he wanted to ask what it was, Jex decided not to concern himself with things like that.
His attention refocused to Snow as she shrugged, saying that he didn't really need to walk with her to class, since it was just two buildings away from the dining hall, but if he wanted to, he was welcome to join her.
She then put her bag over her shoulder and started for the doors.
Jex stood there a moment, unsure of whether or not he should go with her or go off on his own now.
In his mind, he felt Chastity nudge him, saying for him to go along with Snow for now, and then he could find somewhere to wind down.
He sighed, shrugging his shoulders slightly as he adjusted the axe holstered on his waist-belt, and walked after the girl.
With a few strides, he came up beside her, " I'll stick with you for a bit longer, I'm not really in too much of a hurry to go anywhere, really," he said, grinning sheepishly, before they went out the doors of the dining hall. † † (( Exit ))

Talnar came through the dining hall doors a few minutes after jax had left. He walked by the wolf man but didn't bother him since he seemed to be heading out. Upon entering the hall, talnar stood at the entrance and looked around. It actually looked decent for a non eldar place. he sighed, a metallic echo leaving his helmet. '' i guess this will have to do. i just worry that if i should even eat food touched by the hands of a mon-keigh.'' he said to himself. he turned around to the entrance and waited for kana or kaya, who ever was in control.

 ☯☯ Somewhere along the way from the dorms to the dining hall, Kanakami had felt something tugging on her.
It had, of course, been Kaya, who had decided she was finished standing on the side-lines, and wanted out, and so, Kana had let her other come back out without any complaints.
Kana's black hair, triple horns, clothing, and stone-hard expression morphed into Kaya's white hair, lupine ears, her kimono and obi, and her long, white wolf tail was back.
In her mind, she listened as Kana relayed to her what had happened ever since after the fight at the courtyard and pond.
" So you see, this Talnar guy isn't so bad, he's just confused and sad because he was sent here forcefully, and has no way to go back to his own world," said the black-haired demon girl mentally, giving a nod at her own words.
' I can see where this is going, so, he wants us to help him get adjusted to life here in Mitomi High?' asked Kaya, her red eyes seemingly distant as she followed the Eldar.
" Pretty much...." stated Kana, her voice trailing off a bit when she sensed a shift in Kaya's thoughts, " Still thinkin' about Axel, eh?"
Kaya sighed a moment, before answering back, ' Y-Yes... I feel so terrible for our leaving him alone with that ghost... I hope he's alright...'
" Don't worry too much about it, okay? I'm sure he's fine, though who knows, he could still be fighting the ghost... last time I saw before I led Tal to the dorms, the fight seemed to be starting to get pretty ugly," replied Kana nonchalantly.
Her other's words seemed to strike something in Kaya, who mentally growled back, ' Not. Helping!' saying that Kana's words, and the tone in which she spoke them, did nothing at all to reassure her that Axel was 'fine.'
So engrossed was Kaya in her own mind, as well as her conversation with Kana, she was suddenly brought back to reality when she bumped into Talnar, who was standing at the entrance as they entered the dining hall.
" O-oh!" exclaimed the white-haired girl, quickly bowing to him, " Sorry!"
Her red eyes looked to him, then she turned, observing the inside of the huge building.
The place was enormous, no doubt to hold what could be thousands of other students, teachers, and staff at this school, and the lights were dim, giving the dining hall a certain atmosphere, similar to that of a fancy restaurant, elegant, yet with a strange, homely feel.
It didn't take too long for the menagerie of delicious smells to assault her wolf-like sense of smell, and her glowing red orbs lit on the buffet-style setup.
" So much to pick from~!" she gasped in awe, not knowing where to even start, her eyes looking back to Talnar again. ☯☯ (( OutrageouslyOddChinchillas: ----- ))

Talnar took a step forward to cath his balance from Kaya bumping into him. He looked at her and noticed the change in features, the horns now gone and replaced by what seemed animal ears, her hair now white instead of that deep black that represented Kana's personality in a way. And if he could swear, he just noticed that the girl now had a tail. Hearing her apology as well, he looked at her and just nodded.
Unfortunatly for Tal, unlike Kaya who could pick up the smell from all the gourmet food, Talnar's helmet didn't allow him to smell anything as it filtered all the oxygen he received. But, from what he could witness in her reaction, she seemed delighted with the food options. After she had looked at him he didn't say anything but began to walk up to the buffet. Seeing as it was later, the amount of students was less and thus there was no line at the moment, just a student here and there coming for seconds.
He looked over the options and was confused at what any of this stuff was made from. Looking at the stuff, he saw a chicken cordon blue and picked up the cheese filled chicken breast and held it close to his helmet, observing the piece of food. Seeming displeased with what he was looking at, he tossed it aside, almost hitting another student. " I Don't know what I can consume here without having a chance to falling ill." He said as he looked from the pastas, to the pizza, to the skirt steaks, desserts, ect.
His gaze turned to Kaya, and he sighed. " Child, please help me here." That metallic voice of his coming out politely towards the girl.

☯☯ Kayakami's red eyes watched Tal as he stepped forward a bit when she had bumped into him, looking to her, and, after a moment, he simply nodded in response to her apology.
The delicious smells of the food tingled her nose, she couldn't exactly recall the last time she'd gotten a decent meal, though it seemed like maybe weeks ago.
When she looked to him, he did not speak, and simply walked over to the buffet.
Glancing around again, Kaya noticed that the dining hall seemed a bit emptier than she had expected, of course, since it was pretty late at night, not many students came here, except for maybe a midnight snack, or meal.
There was no line at the buffet, which was good, as she did not really feel like waiting to get food, the only people at the buffet were a few stray students coming to grab seconds.
Her gaze fell back on Talnar as he seemed to be examining the variety of foods the place had to offer, picking up what looked to be a chicken cordon bleu, holding it up towards his helmet.
After looking at it a moment, the Eldar tossed the piece of chicken away, the hunk of cheese and meat almost smacking into another student.
Kaya couldn't help but giggle a bit at that, it had seemed almost comical, but then quickly recomposed herself, brushing her kimono and adjusting her obi quickly.
She caught Talnar looking to her, hearing him say politely, in that metallic voice of his, for her to help him out.
" Coming!" Kaya replied hastily, moving over to join him at the buffet, grabbing up a plate as she approached.
" Need help with deciding what food to get?" she asked him curiously, tilting her head at him.
Telling from his reaction to the food, including the chicken cordon bleu he had tossed away a moment ago, he was probably a bit unfamiliar with what they served here.
A question popped to mind, and she glanced up to him again, " Well, if you don't mind me asking, what exactly do Eldar eat back on... craftworld Ulthwe?" she asked of him, pausing a moment in midsentence and allowing Kana to give her the name that he had called his old home. ☯☯ (( OutrageouslyOddChinchillas: ----- ))
