Detchitoyo High School: Freshmen Year, Q. 1

[Zack2216]

Once you make it to the third floor, it looks similar in size to the second floor, but not very populated. As you look around, it looks like you've gotten the attention of a couple students. A tall, lean japanese student walks towards each of you, wearing loose white clothing, walking with a curved, large cane.
Now that he is in front of you, you can see his brown almond eyes and bowl haircut, his hair stopping short of his jaw.

Asking in a semi-polite, arogant voice "Are you lost?"

 

[Kalanyr]

Lugh responds in a similar tone.

"Technically yes, I'm well out of my time, but since I assume you mean in the spacial continuum as opposed to the temporal, no I'm perfectly aware of where I am, this is the upper floors of the Detchitoyo High School eating area, no ? You wouldn't have seen Ryuoh would you ?"

 

[Festy_Dog]

Mentally, Thomas rolls his eyes.

Well, Lugh is happy to use too many words to an arrogant 'elder'. I'd best try and clean up after him if possible.

Thomas waits to gauge the older student's reaction, and reply, to Lugh's introduction, then tries to improve relations somewhat.

"You have the look of a swordsman about you. An admirable profession," Thomas says, "I take it you practise with that? Rather than risk harming your colleagues with a bladed weapon."

Hope that cools things a little.

He smiles at Thomas' remark "Ah,you have a good eye, but you see..." He presses a switch on the top of cane, and the swords sheeth unlocks, showing a glint of metal beneath the wood "My weapon is real. I just practice with a kendo stick..." He pauses a moment, then appears to have remembered something "Ok, stop changing the subject. I know you all aren't Juniors, so what are you doing here?"

Replying to Lugh "What do you need to see him for? I doubt he would know any of you willingly..."

Overhearing the argument, several students turn around to watch with a morbid glint in their eyes, a couple of them walking towards your circle, standing behind the japanese student, each of them with similar looks about them, half of them carrying a similar cane, the others appearing to be weaponless.

A couple more pipe up, with similar arrogant voices, asking "What are you doing here?" and "Why don't you go back downstairs with the other freshmen?" and such.

 

[Kalanyr]

" We're here because we want to be. Do we need another reason ? Maybe written permission from your club ? I don't know why the other's are here, I'm here to see whats going on and find out why there's the strange division. "

 

[Lichtenhart]

Replying to Lugh "What do you need to see him for? I doubt he would know any of you willingly..."

"It's a private matter, but thanks anyway for asking. Is he here?"

A couple more pipe up, with similar arrogant voices, asking "What are you doing here?" and "Why don't you go back downstairs with the other freshmen?" and such.

J.K. straightens himself up to face them.
"We're not looking for trouble. We'd just like to talk with Ryuoh and then we'll go downstairs, if it isn't too much of a problem."

"We're not looking for trouble. We'd just like to talk with Ryuoh and then we'll go downstairs, if it isn't too much of a problem."

"Of course," Kryptonite says off-handedly, "if trouble were to find us, then we'd be more than capable of dealing with it." She smiles slightly, and winks at the first junior who showed up.

Subtlety should do the trick... if they don't get the hint, I guess Hawk will get some exercise today...

"So, have any of you boys seen Ryuoh around?"

 

[Zack2216]

The voices get louder, but after a minute, a familiar face pokes in through the crowd.

Ryuoh "Uh, hey guys, how are you doing? I see you're getting accustomed to the school's castes." Once he begins talking, the others begin to disipate slowly, leaving you to speak with Ryuoh in peace, some of them grumbling things like "Stupid freshmen, they should know they don't belong anywhere near this level..." and similar comments.

Ryuoh "So, what bring's you up here?"

 

[Festy_Dog]

"Ah,you have a good eye, but you see..." He presses a switch on the top of cane, and the swords sheeth unlocks, showing a glint of metal beneath the wood "My weapon is real. I just practice with a kendo stick..."

Thomas nods, then lifts his briefcase in front of his chest and gives it a pat, signifying its similar purpose.

" We're here because we want to be. Do we need another reason ? Maybe written permission from your club ? I don't know why the other's are here, I'm here to see whats going on and find out why there's the strange division. "

Hahaha! He's curious about social division!? Did his parent's keep him in a cage in their basement!? Surely there isn't that much to humans. Heh, anyway, what do the Americans say? "Duck and Cover"?

"We're not looking for trouble. We'd just like to talk with Ryuoh and then we'll go downstairs, if it isn't too much of a problem."

"Of course," Kryptonite says off-handedly, "if trouble were to find us, then we'd be more than capable of dealing with it."

Well, if the others intend to stick around I'm not about to leave them as well, they've proven themselves to be decent folk.

Ryuoh "So, what bring's you up here?"

Thomas silently raises his arm and indicates Lugh.

 

[Zack2216]

Ryuoh: "Hmmm, interesting. Well, you can get away with hanging out up here, not many students up here are strong enough to take you all on as a group, and a couple of them don't care. However, until you get to know more people and get stronger, I recomend that you don't go upstairs further. Not even I go up there, not unless I'm sent on an arrand."

Downstairs, you can here speakers bing checked, and a blond standing in the center of the stage on the first floor. Ryuoh "Hey, looks like Christian is doing his usual beginning of the year concert. But you know, I was always curious about how he is able to avoid the mobs of rabid fangirls. He just says that he's good at being inconspicuous. Meh." He begins to trail off somewhat. "He hasn't released a new cd lately, I wonder if he will have a new song written for this occasion."
