Mr. Duskrade looks at the others teachers before giving them a small nod as if to say 'goodbye' and then quietly walks off of the small stage that was put up for the first day of school. He walks to the teachers food table passing by the fruit almost making him lose his appetite as he thinks of the time he tried one. He speeds up his pace just a little as he passes by the fruits if you look close enough you can see just a little hint of disgust on his normal monotone face. That's the most emotion he gives now when he was little his face always had a smile on it now that he learned how cold the world could be just because your different he lost all pieces of happiness.

Von looks at the girl with a smile that spread ear to ear "of course i love music i mean who wouldn't" he chuckles at the girl forgetting about the question. She clearly didn't want to talk about it so he just dropped it i mean who would try to find out a question they don't really need to know about in the first place anyway. Wait scratch that a lot of people would he just wasn't one of those people who had nothing better to do then mess up peoples life over stupid reasons.

Von looks at her for a second "i like all kinds of music it doesn't matter what type" he watches her for a second. Looking at the small stage he sees that all of the teachers ave disappeared somewhere he doesn't know or care anyway. "i hope you know you have a really pretty smiles" he says to her nicely.

As Aryanna walks, she pulls out her journal and begins to write. "I just started at the new school, Mythos High, and everyone seems pretty ok. That fox-boy named Izzy followed me hear and enrolled too. He reminds me of Adrianna." She sighs and shuts her eyes as she remembers her deceased older sister, always so sure and confident and happy......and walks straight into Jora. Aryanna yells "oh geez, I'm so sorry! I was lost in thought," as a shy, embarrassed smile appears on her face along with a a lot of red. Aryanna, seeing Jora unconsciously inspect her, says "I'm Aryanna. If you're wondering why you didn't see me at breakfast it's because I sat at the very back of the room with my 'stalker'." She smiles slightly as lysytsya pops up at her shoulder grinning like an idiot as he asks "Hey Aryanna, I was wondering where you got to. Who are they?" Aryanna turns back to Jora and says "first of all, this is the stalker I was talking about, my friend Izzy," Izzy pouts at the name and the calling of him a stalker before Aryanna bluntly asks, "and second of all, who's the boy with the blue hair?"


lysytsya ran after Aryanna after he saw here leave and found her rambling to a confused boy and girl. He asked her who they were and she brushed off the question, introducing him as a "stalker" and using his hated nickname, Izzy. He pouted and thought Ariiiiiiiiii, why do you keep using that name! You know I hate it, and I'm not a stalker!. As he directed his attention back to the one-sided conversation, he realized Ari had stopped talking and he introduced himself. "I'm lysytsya, and I hate that nickname Ari used, so please don't call me Izzy" He noticed Ari mouthing "call him Izzy, he secretly loves it" And glared at her. Then he continued with his introduction, "I'm a Teumessian fox, and I'm NOT a stalker. I did see her swimming once though and just fllowed her here 'cause she looked lost. What are your names? Judging by the looks on your faces Aryanna just met you and started rambling without you knowing what happened." Then he started to bounce and practically yelled "I can't wait to get to know you!"

Before Orion got to react, Jora was bumped into by a girl. Needles to say she almost fell over....again. Are you really this unbalanced, Jora? The girl started talking and then a boy came around the corner and started talking too. Jora quickly got overwelmed, she never had more then one person talking to her at once. She managed to stammer out. "Ah, oh... M-my n-name's A-arnbjorg bu-ut I prefer Jora.... Uh-h, It's nice to meet you guys." She really was getting overwhelmed. There she was having a nice conversion with Orion, then she almost gets knocked over and starts making a fool of herself. She was shaking. She looked pleadingly over to Orion to take over.

"Hi! I'm Orion, chinese dragon," Orion notices Jora's discomfort and steps slightly in front of her, but not blocking her. He hoped the two new people didn't notice. I wonder where these two came from? And all this stalker stuff? "What's all this about stalking?" He asks, throwing on a friendly smile, a small one though. Weird. I seem to pull off a big smile only with Jora. He notices Jora's shaking, and takes a step back so he is standing next to her. He throws an arm around her shoulder, in what he hoped seemed casual. He turned and smiled at her.

Aryanna notices how she's been rambling and gives sheepish smile while the body language of Orion and Jora shifts to discomfort. Shoot! The first people I meet and I'm scaring them. Smooth, Aryanna, smooth. I may not end up being friends with them, but I don't wan them to have a bad impression. OH GOD! WHAT IF IZZY DOESN'T LET UP! "Sorry, I was rambling. I'm new and you're the first people I've met besides Izzy. As for the stalker bit, I just call him that. In my past some, um.........some stuff happened so I left. I'm a selkie, and I ended up swimming near Izzy's home. He saw me take off my seal skin and introduced himself about the same way he did just now, but more hyper. I explained why I was wandering and then he just, kinda, followed me." I hope they're not overwhelmed now, I wonder why they're out here? "Why are you in the hallway?" Aryanna asks, curious. lysytsya mischievously buts in with wiggling eyebrows saying "were you trying to get some couples time to kiss?" Aryanna turns to him shocked before blushing and elbowing him. "Izzy, I doubt that. Stop trying to embarrass them."



As Orion and Jora shift slightly and Orion puts his arm around Jora, Aryanna looks like she's floundering and started to indirectly apologize before explaining the "stalker" thing. I wonder why Ari's nervous. It's just a couple that wanted alone time. I bet they cam out here to kiss Iysytsya thinks. Izzy hears Aryanna ask why Orion and Jora are out here and decides to voice his opinion. Thinking he's hit the money Iysytsya wiggles his eyebrows while he says "Were you trying to get some couples time to kiss?" to them. Aryanna seems not to like it and elbows him and scolds him at the same time. When Iysytsya looks over at Aryanna he sees her blushing profusely and becomes even more confused. Why is stating the facts bad? They're a couple, aren't they? Actually, maybe not. Shoot. His eyes widen as he says "Oh! Sorry, you guys aren't a couple are you! I tend to jump to conclusions sometimes. I'm just going to, um, head back to the, uh, mess hall" He begins to walk away the way he came to the mess hall with his held down and his face rivaling even his hair.

(FYI I had this done before you posted Nixie!) Jora was glad Orion had steeped in front of her. Really what have I ever do to get such a good friend like him. She was still shaking but was feeling a little better. She suddenly notices that Orion must have seen her shaking. She was a little mad at herself for being so overwhelmed by two people, even though they were a little quick when they spoke. Suddenly Orion steps back..... and puts an arm around her shoulder! Jora tensed for a second, surprised, then relaxed, her shaking subsiding. Orion turned and gave her a reassuring smile. She smiled back weakly. Then thought something. Oh, I hope this isn't uncomfortable or awkward for him. I wouldn't want him to be embarrassed because of me.
__________
Jora's mouth just hung open in surprise. "Uh... Um ... No... We're.... not... a co-ouple." She was so upset that Orion probably was too embarrassed to talk, she ducked out from under his arm. Oh, no! I probably just hurt his feelings! But if I stayed there he probably would have gotten uncomfortable. Oh, what do I do now! She was getting upset just thinking about how awkward Orion might feel around her now. Dang it! My first friend ever! She rocked on her feet trying to use some of the bent up energy in her, trying to think of a graceful way to excuse herself.

Orion tilted his head back and laughed. When Jora ducked out from under his arm, he let it drop awkwardly to his side. This is getting awkward. Misewell act normal. "I actually just met her. We barely know each other. I actually don't know anyone here. And what about you two? Are you a couple?" he said, trying to turn the tides. Not that he actually thought they were. They did obviously know each other. He glanced at Jora, knowing she'd feel embarrassed. What's it with me and getting her into embarrassing situations. Maybe if I hadn't put my arm around her.... He felt slightly guilty, but shook it off.

"I doubt that," said Ember. Maybe she gave her self-esteem to her brother. I hope she thinks about herself. Not like I'm one to talk. She wrapped her arms around herself.
