Welcome to Gaia! ::

((He's in a medical lab in the medical department, reading a book.))

Zoll looks up from his book at the girl, removing his feet from off a nearby stool and settling them onto the floor. Closing the book, he places it onto the table.

"Hello, again. I didn't get your name the first time." Those dark eyes stared at her again, making it a mystery once more what was going within that closed-off mind of his.

He reaches out, grasping her hand in return. "Nice to meet you, Meridith." Once more, he had a way of making his words sound sly and sort of malevolent.

Returning his hand to himself, he looks around the room, filled with many charts on the human anatomy and chemicals of various medicines. There were other medical supplies around, too, the slight smell of alcohol and other nostalgic smells coming from the experience of being in a hospital room.

"I was just reading a book, that is all. This is where I will mostly be for my stay here at this school. I am a medical student in training under Miss Ella. She is gone on a business trip, so I am left in charge until she returns, it seems."

Zoll stands to his feet, stuffing his hands into his pockets as he begins to slowly stroll around the room, his hand often touching bottles and other objects that just happen to be in the way.

"The power to save a life...and the power to take away a life. That is the life of a doctor. A doctor's main priority is the life of others. They must make split second decision during a crisis, and quickly determine whether they should do this or do that, and the result will lead to life or death."

He stops and faces toward her from the other side of the room. "I love having that power, the thrill of the challenge that such a life brings you. Only doctors are the ones who stand in the way of the grim reaper, and we can change the fate of the divine. But just as easily as we can preserve life, we can just as easily destroy it. We hold methods of killing a person, from slowly to quickly. You are right: there are various poisons in this room right now that can potentially kill you if used right. Even the air you breathe can be used to kill you."

He then steps back toward her. "So you see, the life of a medical student is not as monotonous as you think."

"A telekinetic with an interest in fire. Pyrokinetic, then, I take it?"

He turns around, walking over to lean against a counter. He gives a laugh to the comment. Many have called him creep. Others, weird, gothic, and downright a mystery. He never showed dislike to any alias or name others gave him. Or, he just made it seem so.

"My medical field? I have no specific interest. Everything is capable to me."

His right hand opens, looking at it. She could see that on each of his exposed forearms were a series of black tattoos, markings that showed no distinct shapes other than being curves and different spots here and there. The same markings lied on the back of his hands, with runic symbols on the palms. Aside from his fingernails being painted black.

((If Colin ever gets a chance to meet Zoll, he will cotton to him sooo quickly. Speaking of ever gets a chance, turns out I won't be back til august 3. sad I've got today though, if Ialo shows up he & Colin can bicker or something for a bit.))

Cocking her head to one side as he laughed she shrugged. "not much of late. But a few months back the headmistress went on rampage, killing students and a few teachers. She was stopped by a few teachers and students. Apparently she was trying to get the 100 tears to open the way to the mystic fountain which used to stand on these grounds. Other than that nothing else." She spoke it matter of factly and watched his entire body for any sort of reaction. She could feel the flammable objects in the room. This shocked her a bit but based on her sense of unease around this "doctor" she thought it was fitting.
