Welcome to Gaia! ::

Axel's eyes shifted upwards, having found Tehuti's face finally. Mostly he was reacting to his name. For a second Axel's ears weren't back like he was angry, but one ear suddenly perked up. This gave Axel a kind of curious look, not to sure about the situation. He continued to chew his food until he was finished. "Thanks, it's not a very common name." He said while scratching his arm. "I haven't really meet that many cat humanoids, but I have met a lot of other cats. They didn't seem so thrilled." Axel said his voice wavering for a second. He didn't really know how to feel about Tehuti, he was a bit odd. "Yeah, i'm from around here. It would be stranger if i wasn't, I mean someone has to be from this planet....heh." Axel said giving a small laugh at the end of his sentence. He ate some more of his fish. He thought for a second, seeming to having some strange thought. "You know for some reason your name is familiar to me...." Axel couldn't quite place where, but he felt like he had read it some where. "I feel like i read something or someone talked about." Axel's tail swished behind him, in annoyance.

Graves smiled and shrugged. "It kind of is. But it's to be expected when you aren't around for a few years." He liked Tenshi, he seemed like his kind of guy. Graves happily shoved another piece of charred chicken in his mouth, by now he was getting full. So he gently pushed what was left of the chicken away from him. Although he kept the fries close by, he maybe full but not to full to eat fries.

Tenshi swallowed his other forkful of food as he listened to Graves' answer, watching the zombie guy shrug a bit with a smile, saying that it kinda was a bad thing, but it was to be expected when one wasn't around for a few years.
" Oi yeah? Then per'aps I shoul' do a lil' more sleepin', eh?" he asked, a smirk on his face as he thought about sleeping until he woke up in the future or something.
" I don' suppose dat if'n yous got all dese fancy whatchamacallits n' wotnot, may'aps ya go' sum kinda time travelin' thin'," the wolf samurai added with a chuckle, thinking that such a possibility was preposterous by all means, but then again, that WAS how he and Tiamek ended up at Mitomi from feudal-era Japan, maybe...
As he polished off the last of his food, he watched with a sort of odd fascination at Graves eating the charred pieces of food, before pushing it away, his attention focused more on the zombie than on most of the other company present.
His ear perked up to attention as Mariya, who seemed to have finished with her food, was asking if anyone wanted to come and join her in training, since it was always better with a partner.
" Hehe, den I suppose ya won' min' me taggin' along, eh? Th' good ol' swords need sum practice every now n' den to keep 'em sharp n' wotnot, y'know?" he volunteered, unsure if Tehuti or anyone else would also come to join them.
" B'sides, we jes' migh' run into a certain crazy witch in th' near future, methinks..." Tenshi added in a more serious tone, glancing towards Tiamek as if to hint to her that she knew who he was talking about.
Tiamek quietly ate the rest of her sushi while she listened to Axel and Tehuti talk with one another, the Bastet saying that he had not met many cat humanoid creatures, moreso just cats, even though they didn't seem to be very nice company, while Tehuti said he was the opposite, even though he'd met someone like him, though she was more reptile than mammal.
Upon finishing the sushi, she concentrated on her mint tea, occasionally glancing over to Tenshi, who was making conversation with the zombie man, Graves, and Mariya, who was dutifully eating her honeyed nectar as if it was a bowl of rice.
Her gaze slid back over to the two cat people at the table, her ears perked in interest as Axel brought up that Tehuti's name seemed familiar, as in he'd heard it or read it from somewhere.
Well, they both were of Egyptian origins, yes? It is possible they may have known each other at some point, but, there was a chance they might have not, she wasn't entirely sure, but she kept silent otherwise.
Tehuti replied that he would be happy to hear if Axel got any recollection of that, and if not, then that was alright too.
Mariya then brought up the subject of going to train, to which Tenshi was quick to volunteer first.
" I suppose that would be good then, if you don't mind getting yourself all cut up," she said in a lightly teasing tone, flashing her eyes at him a moment.
However, as he mentioned the possibility of running into a certain 'crazy witch' in the near future, Tiamek caught his gaze, and nodded solemnly in return, though she was hoping such a thing would not happen too soon.
She did not voice on whether or not she would join Mariya and Tenshi to go training just yet, she wanted to see if anyone else was joining them, even though she knew she usually stayed around Tenshi almost all the time anyways.



(( OOC: Bit of a short post x3 had to try to get back into character with these two ))

X{♪} Time to rock & roll!!
Sweeping her blue tinted hair off her face, Mariya smirked playfully when Tenshi offered to spar. She had no idea of his skills though, but that just made things interesting...
"Not at all comrade, but it wont be easy work out mind you. I am sure you can manage though... Probably, hahaha!" She laughed mockingly, trying to rile up her partner even before they had begone. Mariya's eyes flashed with competition, almost dangerously, at the prospect of blowing off steam against an opponent instead of targets. It really had been a while since she had a chance to 'spar' with anyone other than Chaz or Tehuti.
"Well then, we shall go! wasting time standing here." she shouted cheerily and half jogged towards the doors. Trying to contain her excitement and energy was sort of failing as the adrenaline levels in her blood began to rise, it took all her will power not to explode into fits or laughter and shouting, leaving her with a beaming grin under her sharp, dagger like, eyes. She meant business, and she was going to enjoy it.











Tehuti sighed lightly as his friend bounced towards the exit. She was like a lit firework, there were sparks but no bang... yet...
"All I can say is, that I wish you luck Mr Tenshi. Please, do not hold back against her, it is unlikely she will be as courteous to you." Tehuti's tone of voice almost made his words sound like a warning, but the smile, well if you could call it a smile, on his face said otherwise.
A part of him wanted to go along and watch, but that would just end up with him being dragged into things, probably... No it was definitely a bad idea, he had already been for a morning run anyway when he caught breakfast, and wasting any more energy would go against Tehuti's cat like nature.
"However... I do believe with Tenshi leaving, Miss Tiamek would be left without a companion? Would it be rude of myself to offer some company miss?" He said pleasantly, he almost bowed for some reason, but decided against it. He was only offering to hang out for a while after all, not become a bodyguard or anything, not that there was much of a chance of her being attacked anyway, well... There might be, Tehuti was none the wiser about her circumstances... But generally people didn't do that sort of thing much in this day and age, well in his experience anyway.

((Exit to training hall for Mariya too, shoulda said earlier... Derp sweatdrop ))

Grave was glad to have had the company during breakfast this morning. It wasn't a normal occurrence, but since he joined Mitomi it's the norm. He was glad to have meet so many people so far. They all seemed so lively, even Tiamek and Axel, who didn't seem to talk that much. Mariya seemed very excited that Tenshi had except her offer. "Have fun you too!" Graves yelled after the two, but it seemed they had already left. He could only smile after them be fore returning to the others. "well it's been nice talking, Tehuti, I believe it's Excel and Tiamex....." He stopped for a second with a very stern face at both of them for a second. A lop-sided grin came to his face. "I got that wrong didn't i? Man, i bad with names sometimes....." He said with small laugh and stood up shaking his head. He was laughing at himself more than anything.

Axel waved bye to Tenshi and Mariya as they left. He was glad he didn't want to go. That ghost really did do a number on him. The running while severely injured didn't help either. Axel's pale green eyes searched around not looking at anything in particular. Of course hearing Graves messing up his name, Axel's tail puffed out a bit and his eyes narrowed on him. "It's AX...el..." He hissed slightly, he wasn't angry at Graves, just a little annoyed. "Your closer with her's....it's Mek not mex." He added huffly.

Grave cringed slightly at the hiss. "Terribly sorry.....Axel. You mind kind of goes when you have no pulse. Also i guess one strange name a day is my limit." Graves scratched his head as a impossibly low frequency caught his attention. "speaking of tengu...." Graves said to himself. Apparently Tengu had warning calls in case they got into trouble and it seemed Raven was trying to get him to come home. He only learned it by listening to Ray do the screech at close range. For some reason it seemed to work better now that he was dead. "Oh...sorry it's seems Raven is trying to get me home. I guess until we meet again." He bowed while rolling his right hand lazily, before he jumped over the divider and into the other the booth. Taking whatever he thought should be thrown away, but his crisp chicken which he left on the table. Graves headed towards the door.

Axel shoved the last of the fish in his mouth when he heard something. he couldn't see for about ten seconds, but magically his 'sight' seemed to come back when Graves mentioned being called. 'geeze...if that how they call remind me not to be on their contacts....' Axel thought as he blinked a few times. There was a slight movement from his case which seemed to unlatch and open slightly. Nothing seemed to move out of it other than a papyrus scroll falling out. Axel had yet to notice, because he was waving good bye to Graves. He was a strange man, jumping over the division between booths rather then just walking out normally. And that bow was quite the way to exit. Axel was kind of lost in his own thoughts, even with Tiamek blushing and Tehuti wanting to accompany her for the time being.

(sorry felt like writing)

If relaxation was the mood, then Tehuti usually headed out towards the courtyard for fresh air. But considering they had just came from there, and the fact that it was one of the busier areas of the school, put it lower on his list this time.
"Hmmm...." He said in thought, his voice rumbling a bit as it hit some lower notes. "I suppose, outside would be good... However, I am guessing neither you not Tenshi know the layout of the campus yet? In which case I suggest the roofs of the dorm building. It is a location with height that gives wide views of the surrounding area." Tehuti mused thinking over the different locations in his head.

The roofs were a good place to start, plenty to see and lots of fresh air and sun too. It had been a while since he had ventured up to the roofs...

Tiamek's ears flicked as she caught a little bit of Graves laughing, just as he disappeared through the huge doors of the dining hall.
Looking to Axel, she thought she saw him get this rather odd look on his face when she had momentarily freaked out at what she had said, perhaps he found it amusing? Not that she didn't see any humor in it, she was just curious, this was a different time period, so, maybe social interactions had changed too? Then again, it was probably just her mind making idle assumptions, as it sometimes was wont to do.
The Bastet then looked to her, saying that if they didn't mind him tagging along, it sounded like fun, to which the kitsune gave a smile, " But of course, you're more than welcome to accompany us~"
When she had picked up the scroll and unfurled it slightly, she noticed it didn't seem to have anything on it, save for a small image of an Egyptian styled cat in the left corner of the page, strange...
It took Axel a moment to register that she was holding the scroll, and said it was his, and that it must've fallen out of his case.
Tiamek didn't question about the single cat symbol on the page, smiling and handing it back to him as he reached for the piece of parchment.
Her eyes drifted back over to Tehuti as he gave a sort of rumbling noise while he thought, no doubt trying to figure out a good spot where they could go to relax and just enjoy each other's company for a while.
The cat monster man then spoke, saying that he supposed outside would be good instead of just being confined to the dining hall, though he guess neither she nor Tenshi knew the layout of the campus yet.
To this, Tiamek nodded slowly, knowing it was true, listening as he suggested going to the roof of the dorm building, a location with height that gave a good view of the surrounding area.
" It sounds lovely, similar to how I would always go up to the castle's highest balcony, and be able to see over the expanses of gardens we had~ The roof it is then~" she answered, nodding to confirm her agreement with Tehuti's suggestion.
With that, she started to rise from her seat, checking to make sure she had all of her bearings, before she smiled to Tehuti, " We should be leaving here then, yes? Please, lead the way, if you will, Tehuti, since you seem to know how to navigate well around here~" she said to him politely, gently pulling out Axel's chair and taking his hand to help him up from his seat.
