If he had made some interesting courses before for his students he was sure that this one took the cake. It was... It actually looked like a lot of fun and it was all that he could do while he was setting it up to keep Ter from diving on in and trying it out himself. It consisted of a LOT of bungee cord and a few trees in his classroom, a huge mess of back and forth, up and down, loop arounds to make a massive mess of things that one would have to squirm through, over, under, and around to get through. Within the area were his patented glass spheres to be found some of them up high hung up, others down on the floor, all over the place.
This all set up to work on the agility of the next student, Roule.
Should be interesting. Yay for classes that were on the ground and didn't involve flying.

Nev stepped in with a small, rather anxious pale boy into the teaching room. The boys' eyes widened at the arrange of cords arranged in the room, gulping. It wasn't his typical idea of a lesson.. No, he had expected to come to an organized standard room with a desk and a textbook and pencils ... and well, not bungee cords.
Nev grinned behind her hand and nudged the boy with her knee, pushing him forward. He stumbled into the classroom awkwardly, fumbling with his jacket. The girl grinned nervously and stepped towards the red-headed teacher, attempting to weave around the jittery child.
"Uhh, this is Roule's skill class right? I'm not sure if I got the room right.. I lost the notice." She flushed slightly, but held a hand out.

Orpheus nodded his head as he walked oer to them, taking the woman's hand to shake it, "Yep, this is his skill class." He said, "We will be working today on Agility." As if that would totally explain the mess of bungee cords behind him. He gave a smile, "It should be an interesting experiance."
He only hoped that he boy was as agile as the information he'd seen made his species out to be, or he would have to try to go through the bungee-maze himself if he got stuck. Not something thought would be very easy.
Well, here was hoping for the best!

Roule gulped nervously at the red-haired man, waiting for his mother to go away. He really hated the fact that he didn't seem to do anything right at all with the woman watching. Grumbling to himself, he attempted to shoo the woman out of the classroom, giving her a small, repressed glare. Nev quirked a brow, sighing.
"Fine fine, I'll be leaving then. When should I pick Roule up?" She asked quickly to the teacher before she forgot. Bad habit, of course.
The pale boy started to walk towards the bundle, attempting to figure out which way they went. It was so complicated... not that he was scared or anything. Of course not. He was a weasel, and they aren't scared of anything... at all.

"it shouldn't be more then an hour at the most." He told the woman, "It gives you time for errands and such." Or whatever normal parents did when they got a break from the kids.
He turned his attention to the boy that was inspecting the 'course' that was laid out before him, "Tell me when your ready to dive on in." He told the weasel child.

(uuugh, I'm so sorry Rayne. u______u;; *swt*)
Nev nodded, considering. She DID have some stuff to run for a few people anyways.. Provided Roule could stay there by himself.
"Yeah, I think I'll go do that. I gotta pick up coffee and some printing for boss." She grinned and looked at the anxious boy, "Roule? You okay?"
The pale boy blinked at his name, turning to his mother. Roule pouted slightly and nodded, fiercely annoyed that his Ma was treating him like such a baby. He was 7, almost 8. Geez.
Roule turned back to Orpheus, looking towards the mass of cords. "What am I s'pposed to do?" He drawled, walking slowly towards the exercise, just in case it decides to bite him.

(( Not a problem. ^_^ <3 ))
Orpheus dug into a pocket and took out a round, glass sphere, "Inside of the bungee maze there as some of these laying around." He explained, "You are to work on finding them all while moving your way through the bungee cords. It will help you to build up for agility. Maybe climbing and jumping as well thrown in as a bonus."
He moved over to catch up a small fanny pack and held it out to Roule, "Put this around your waist to put the spheres in that you find. You need only to go through there and find..." He thought on that a moment looking over the complexity of the maze, "How about five of them?"

Nodding slowly, Roule muled the thought over in his head. It was easy enough, well it didn't LOOK easy.. But well, the concept seemed interesting and was easy enough to understand. Taking the pack, he attached the belt onto himself, suddenly glad for the experience of wearing those huge belts with the big jeweled brooches. He looked towards the bungee mass and slowly crawled in, attempting not to touch much of the cords. Was the red-haired man testing on how fast he did it? Uhoh.

Orpheus was watching his progress but it wasn't with a critical eye, instead he looked almost curious about how the student would go about it. He'd had a hard enough time building the thing so he could only imagine having to deal with it from the inside. He believed the boy could do it though, "Don't worry about anything but finding the spheres." He called to Roule.
Best he got used to the maze before anything else, better then getting tangled up.

The weasel scowled, not really liking this exercise too much. He struggled around the cords, almost tripping over one. Tumbling downwards, he rolled into an.. ouch. That hurt.
Rubbing his head slightly, Roule got up to see a spherical shape, barely seeable because it was well, transparent. Picking it up, the boy examined it carefully before putting it in his bag, rather proud of himself.

Oprheus gave a little wince at the fall but seeing him recover brought a smile back to his face, "Your doing well Roule." He called, especially impressed when the boy picked up the first of his needed spheres, one down four to go. And a little glitter of light of sparkle off number two. It wasn't that far away from where Roule was now, or at least didn't give the impression of being far off though that wasn't taking into account all the cord between him and it.

Roule patted the pack fondly, and continued to plow through the boundless amount of cord. He was frowning unconsicously, as it was a natural reaction to something touch. Something sparkled dimly in the near distance, making Roule squint. He couldn't see what it was however, so shrugged and skipped over a large bundle of threads, almost flying over it. It was a weird feeling though.
Staring forward and attempting to dodge the strings as well, he found that the cords were getting harder to dodge as they were centered more upwards now, instead of being strewn on the ground. The weasel muttered something as he flutted some cords away from his face, attempting to multi-task and scan around for another ball.
The glimmer caught his eye again. It was higher up, apparently, but not impossible to reach. The pale boy reached the dim light, realizing it was the light reflecting an orb. Another one! Reaching up eagerly, Roulette clasped the ball in his hands, tail almost wagging energetically. He grinned and pulled it a bit too hard, tumbling towards the ground again. It didn't really hurt though, just a bit stunning.

Well he did find another one which was good Orpheus decided even if he took a little tummble. After all he had been doing well to dodge the cords, hopping over some of them even to avoid them. While it was a very weird set up the fact that he was getting his bearings and hopping through the maze. Natural instict kicking in maybe? That or just the want to get he class done with, either way he was getting it down.
Upon landing on the ground Roule would either count himself lucky for where he landed or (maybe slightly unlucky due to the landing) but found a third sphere sitting right there in front of him well within reach. It even sparkled slightly as if to say: here I am.

Roule blinked, slightly dazed. There was another shiny shape on the ground now, but it looked so blurry. The boy rubbed his eyes anxiously, getting another good look at it. What? Another orb! Wooow, he was lucky. Grinning, he stuffed the two orbs into the pack. The pack felt a bit weird now though, since he was filling it up nicely. Just two more to go till he was done. Kicking off a rope that had slightly tangled around his foot as he fell. Straightening, he looked around to see if he could spot anymore. Not seeing any of the bright specks, he started to move again, quicker and sharper this time. It was getting easier as he was getting used to it.

The teacher moved off to the side, around so he could get a better look from another point of view on what the boy was doing and how well. He was in fact getting rather used to the moving around through the many cords and ropes. In fact he was catching on better then one could have hoped, "Your doing very well!" He called, when Roule moved through a particularly tangled around.
There was a small tangle of rope to the right where several of them crossed and wrapped around one another. Sitting nestled on top of the mess was an orb, glimmering silently.
