A'ine started chuckling. "Yup! You should have seen Alderic's face when I jumped out from behind the bushes! It was priceless!" She said excitedly laughing a little. "So what were you and Mitch talking about? It looked like you enjoyed the subject." She said rolling her neck as she sat on Ember's bed next to the reading girl.

Phinesa smiled and her stomach rumbled. She grabbed Saffy's arm dragging her toward the mess hall. "Food first!" She said sounding serious.

Alderic shook his head. "I'm sure you'd do alright. And Jora might help you a little too." He sighed as he flopped onto his bed his bags falling next to him. "Are you hungry yet? They're serving dinner now but I'm honestly still worked up from the whole lake thing..." He said shuddering a little at the random thought of it being Bergetia, Lilly or Tendance who had almost drowned.

(Goody! I really liked the idea of her the second I had it!)
Liz smiled as Jora went back into the bathroom to change again. She jumped up and grabbed her make-up case and hair stuff. It never happened where a girl would let her give her a make-over and even though she was a tomboy she was excited. A lot of non-vampires were phased by her half vampire blood and true vamps didn't trust her fully. Liz set everything up with one of the folding chairs from the closet and waited for Jora to come out.

Jora looked in the mirror frowning. She had no idea what she had been thinking agreeing to do this, She wasn't one who liked having her skin showing. The shorts went fairly high up her thighs and the tank top didn't quite reach the top of the shorts. She sighed and walked out of the bathroom to find Liz excitedly waiting to do her make up and hair. "Oh my garlic! You look even prettier than I thought you would!" She said pulling Jora into the chair. "Really?" Jora said feeling Liz starting to do her hair. "Yup! You look really nice." The girl said as she brushed Jora's hair

"Plays and books," Ember replied. She continued to read, but kept half of her attention on A'ine. She felt a bit rude, but her book was good, and if A'ine continued to talk she would stop reading. "Looks like Alderic's ego was knocked down a notch," Ember jokingly muttered.

"I'm not all that hungry," Orion said, grabbing his sketchbook and falling back onto his pillow. "How many sisters do you have?" Orion asked.

Saffy squeaked in surprise, and then ran after Phinesa. She grinned, "You're hungry," she said.

A'ine tilted her head jokingly. "What ego?" She said standing back up. "Well, I'll let you get back to reading, I'm going to go change. Are much fun as it would be, I don't think anyone would want to be smelling my lakey self." She said walking over to her dresser and pulled out some capris and a tee shirt and walked over to the bathroom.

Alderic laughed a little. "You asked last night; five, Bergetia, Lilly, Tendance, Treas, and Marcia." He said with a sigh as he pulled his hair back over his forehead. "What's your sister's name? I can't recall you telling me." He said feeling even more tired.

Phinesa groaned and looked back at the other girl. "Ya think?!" She said getting in line to get food. She shifted as she waited for it to move. "Gurrr... Well I like all music just depens on where I am and what I'm doing." She said answering Saffy's question randomly.

Jora sat quietly as Liz did her hair. "So... Leave any guys with broken hearts back home?" Liz asked her after a good minute of quiet. "No... Just my parents... It was a pretty small village." She said crossing her arms around her. "Ah. That's cool. You do know you're a good artist right?" She said randomly and Jora tensed up. "I'm really sorry but it got boring being nocturnal and your book was out." Jora didn't say anything as Liz put down the brush and started twisting her hair and the like.

Well you messed that up Liz... She thought to herself as she finished up Jora's Hair and picked out some make up colors. She cleared her throat and said the first thing that came to mind. "I just love your skin. It's nice and smooth and pale. I wish my skin was smoother...." She said seeing Jora's eyes widen a little. "No not like that! You're just really pretty! I don't do... that." She said sighing as she started with some blush on Jora.

Ember nodded, and continued to read. (*looks down at the broken ax in my hand*)

"Right, sorry, I'm pretty forgetful," Orion said, embarrassed he had forgotten already. "My sister's name is Artemis. And in the myth Orion and Artemis were best friends until Artemis accidentally killed Orion," Orion said. He was pretty sure his parents hadn't known that part of the myth until they named them.

"Besides Jubal and Saquia, do you know anyone here?" Saffy asked, grinning at Phinesa's impatience. Not that she could blame her. Saffy was bouncing on the balls of her feet again.

A'ine got dressed and rinsed her hair in the sink. She was wondering if the guys had gone to dinner yet or if Jora was there even. She walked out of the bathroom and started brushing her damp hair. (Here, have a vibranium one! ^^)

Alderic bolted up to a sitting position. "Well that's... dark." He said as he paused for a moment. He stood up. "What are you drawing?" He asked wondering and trying to think of what to say.

Phinesa shrugged. "The humanoid class teacher." She said moving as the line moved a little.

(Skiping Liz and Jora for now.)

Ember continued to read. Her mind began to wander and she put the book away. She wanted to start a conversation with A'ine, but she had no idea where to start, or how to keep it going.

Orion looked down at his blank paper. "Nothing at the moment. Do you mind if I draw you?" Orion asked, since it was always easier to draw a person when the person is in front of you.

Saffy nodded. "So you know I like to dance. What do you like to do in your free time?" Saffy asked.

(We keep getting caught in the middle of conversations. Should we skip soon?)

A'ine looked over at Ember and smiled. "Did you want to talk about something?" She asked putting the brush down and ruffled her hair with her fingers.

Alderic laughed a little. "Okay... but..." He began thinking for a moment. "You're going to have to draw a picture of Jora first." He said sitting back on his bed crossing his arms.

Phinesa held her stomach as it continued to growl. "I like baking actually... That and playing with Saquia."

(I don't know. Maybe...)

Ember hesitated. She did want to know about A'ine's sibling, since she liked hearing about other people's siblings. "What's your brother like?" she asked.

"That didn't.... that didn't really.. work out..." Orion said, still feeling guilty for asking Jora to transform just so he could draw her.

"Maybe you could tell me if you think this food is up to par. Do you think they have a cooking class here?" Saffy said. She was also wondering if there was a dance club.

A'ine smiled. "Well, he's always been a bit too protective of me. He's a little shy wen I'm not around. He's really good with katannas... What exactly did you want to know about him?" She asked rolling her neck a little.

Alderic tilted his head. "What are you talking about? I meant just draw a little picture of Jora..." He said confused as he stood up raising an eyebrow.

Phinesa nodded a little. "I'll try. I'm not too sure about the cooking class though... That'd be cool if there was one."

"I had a sister," Ember answered simply. "I was over protective of her too." she added. And look what happened! It's your fault you know. Shut up! Ember shot back to the accusing voice in her head while praying A'ine hadn't heard.

"...In her monster form. It was really stupid of me," Orion said, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly. "I guess I could try drawing her in her human form. Just not right now. I don't want to stress her out even more," Orion said,

"I'm gonna see if there's a dance club!" Saffy said excitedly.
