(Did you want to rp out this lesson?)
Blue Lions | Rieka ❆
Rieka's ears twitched. She did intend to focus on authority and brawling but there was room for her to change her mind before training started in full. All the physical weapon skills interested her so perhaps she could find another skill that fit better with her fighting style than brawling. She looked around the class. Did they all have their goals planned out?
Blue Lions | Fion ♔
Fion already had his sights set on faith with reason and sword on the side. He would spend this first month getting a head start on these pursuits. It was important that he excel otherwise he wouldn't be able to perform well on the battlefield when the time came. It was his belief that most battles hinged on the healer.
Golden Deer | Professor Philomel ❀
Philomel nodded once. "Right then. We will move on, shall we?" He tapped the pot of tea leaves next to him. "Today, I am going to be teaching you how to make the perfect cup of tea or, more specifically, a cup of tea with unusual properties. You never know when such a skill will prove handy." Since this lesson wasn't a serious one, the professor had thought tea-brewing a good idea and one that some of the noble students would already be familiar with. He reached down into his desk and brought up a tray. On it sat a number of bottles of ingredients complete with labels regarding their effects, and one tea-cup for every student. One such bottle's label read 'for strength', another 'for healing', 'defence', 'energy'.
(Philomel takes inspiration from a teacher I had who actually did spend a whole lesson teaching us how to brew the perfect cup of tea. It was a maths lesson haha)

why couldnt i have a math teacher like that, and i would be fine if we time skip to end of the lesson) Orryn-Black Eagles Classroom-Students "Alright so no questions," he commented with a nod. The man watched them for a few seconds. "Alright since a lot of you have interests or ideas of what you want to do, I was thinking of seeing what level you all are at in regards to fighting," he started. "So I was thinking, that we head to the training area and I can partner you up or you can choose your own, and we can just use today for simply an assessment of sorts." Seeing where they all were at in regards to fighting would be helpful for his future planning of lessons, and how going on missions would fair. |

(I know, right? He was quirky, talking to his Ed Sheeran calendar and all 
Skip ~ it is now after class, full day-light and probably close to lunch time.)
Golden Deer | Professor Philomel ❀
Philomel dismissed his class and set to putting away all the ingredients and teacups. Sunlight was filtering through the windows now, the air growing a bit warmer. As soon as he finished up in the classroom, he'd head back up to the second floor to partake in the professor's meeting. No students had come up to him to express an interest in a specific activity so he would be divvying the tasks up randomly.
The lesson had gone well. Not every student had been thrilled to have their first lesson be about tea-brewing, but most had succeeded in creating drinks with useful effects. The stand-out had been a tea strengthened with a petal from the Duscur Roughblooms he had shown Imrie the other day.
Black Eagles | Grimm ✧
Grimm swiped his wrist across his forehead. He had just finished sparring with another student and was feeling very satisfied with the outcome. "Good fight!" He called out as he returned the training lance to the side and stretched his arms out above his head indulgently. Everyone else's matches seemed to be drawing to a close as well so it was likely close to the end of the lesson. If it were up to him, he would have one more fight, but he didn't need to be in a class setting for that, did he? He could always ask Silke or maybe Vincent. He turned to face Orryn. "Hey, teach! I'm a pretty decent cook if I do say so myself. Thought I'd mention it since I'm sure there are some people here who would sooner blow up the dining hall than create anything edible."
Black Eagles | Adora ➳
Adora had stuck with Nora throughout the remainder of the lesson. For the purposes of their training session, she had used a sword instead of her usual weapon of choice, bow and arrows. She had made sure to feign inexperience to avoid unnecessary questions. "Looks like we're quite evenly matched, hm? Had I used my bow, there would've been no draw, mind." She grinned and brushed dust off the front of her uniform. "Thank you for the match. Time for us to go for a leisurely walk around town!"
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯
Estelle called a 'goodbye' to Professor Philomel as she walked out of the Golden Deer classroom. Only after she left did she realise that she had forgotten to ask how she could get her letter to the Observatory sent. She cast a look around her peers. "Does anyone know where I could take this to get it sent?" She asked, bringing the wax-sealed envelope out of her blazer. Her father would be waiting for her correspondence and so it was imperative she mail it as soon as possible.

(Your teacher sounds weird and awesome at the same time ) (Is there anything in the game that says where students can send letters? If not, maybe there's something near the entrance hall or the market place.)
Konstantin | Knights' Hall
Konstantin watched the students putting the training weapons away and going about their day. Since the training grounds had already been occupied by the Black Eagles the Blue Lions had used the training area of the Knights' Hall for today's lesson. The class had been split up into two teams and the students had tested their skills against each other in a three-on-four fight. As the house leader Fion had picked the students for his group and decided whether he wanted his group to consist of three or four students, the remaining ones had formed the second team. The main purpose of that exercise had been to see if they could work together, come up with a solid strategy and, most importantly, if they could trust their leaders' judgement. Something that would be very important for any missions during the year. From what Konstantin had seen today there was a lot of room for improvement but it was a good start. Now he decided to wait for a while in case one of his students still had a question, then he would meet up with Philomel and Orryn.
Nora | Training Grounds | AdoraNora put away the training lance she had used and grinned to herself at Adora's words. "It would have been something else, that's for sure," she conceded. If Adora really was as good with a bow as she claimed to be it would have been difficult to land a hit on her. Even going near her would have been quite a challenge. "Still, it was a good match. It's been a while since I've used a training lance so I had to get used to its lighter weight again. Not that it would have changed much if I had used a different one." With that out of the way she glanced at her other classmates, wondering what they were up to now. Some of them looked like they would train some more and Nora woudln't have minded joining them. But today she had other plans. "Enough training for today," she agreed. "Looks like we're not needed for anything else so I think we can go." Vincent | Training Grounds | OpenVincent nodded to his sparring partner as he returned the training axe. "It was a good match," he said and looked around at his other classmates. Most of them seemed to have finished their matches as well. Now that the lesson was over he wondered what he could do next. Since fishing wasn't an option today maybe he would go to the library. ("some people here who would sooner blow up the dining hall than create anything edible." "Okay, first of all: f@#k you." Wait, no. Vincent wouldn't say that. But how else would he put it? "Fornicate thyself"? Probably not... Look, it's past midnight so of course I'd write weird stuff like that.) |

(Don't think there is. Let's assume there's a postbox-type thing in the market place.)
Black Eagles | Adora ➳
Adora dropped her training sword off with the others and made her way back over to Nora. The match had been exhilarating, a reminder that it had been all too long since she had been in a proper fight. Sparring wasn't quite what she was looking for in that regard, but it would do. "Is that so? Next time, we could use iron or steel if want," she joked, her tone mild. "I suppose they'll be expecting us to have a basic grasp of most weapons by the end of the year," she added, dipping her head briefly to Professor Orryn as they passed to leave. "Now then. Do you think there are any fancy restaurants? An inn? Maybe a tea house?"
Blue Lions | Fion ♔
Fion had chosen a team of three students including Agnar. He had wanted to challenge himself and the rest of his team by pitting them against the larger group. Since physical weapons had been the order of the day, he had used his own sword, Ambergris to fend off his opponents to varying success. He was sure that he had made mistakes, but the battle hadn't gone badly. "Well done," he called to the rest of his team, then to the others.
Blue Lions | Rieka ❆
Rieka had been on the opposite team to Fion and had, unsure of whether she was aloud to shift, used gauntlets. What now? She didn't have any plans for the rest of the day yet.
(Pfft.
The more you mention it, the more I want to see Vincent cook for everyone ^^
Don't worry, I can't cook either haha)

Nora | Training Grounds | Adora"In that case I should probably try out some other weapons too. I suppose it makes sense for us to not rely on a single type of weapon," Nora mused. She knew she wasn't good with swords but there was no harm in trying to get better at it. As they left the training grounds she briefly waved at the others. "Probably nothing too fancy but I wouldn't be surprised if we found all of those. If there are some good restaurants they would be a good alternative on days with... not so desirable food in the dining hall." She laughed lightly, only being half-serious about it. While she didn't like everything on the menu she would probably try it anyway, just to see if it tasted any better here. "Then again, all of us will be on cooking duty at some point. I suppose I'm decent enough, nothing impressive but not bad either. Let's just hope everyone else is on the same level or better."
Agnar | Knights' HallAgnar returned the training sword to the stack of weapons and nodded to his teammates. "It was a good fight," he said as he glanced at the other group. The battle had gone better than expected, considering this was the first time any of them fought together. He wondered if it would have changed much if more than just Fion had had a relic with them. While he didn't know for sure he suspected that quite a few of his classmates had a crest too. (I'm telling ya, he'll be banned from the kitchen in no time xD Haha, I'd like to say "same" but I wouldn't know, I only ever cook really simple stuff that's impossible to screw up. Oh well, I just hope I'm not a lost cause like Vincent and Konstantin.)
Callan | Golden Deer Classroom -> Courtyard
Callan followed the others out of the classroom. Today's lesson hadn't been nearly as bad as he had feared. A little strange but it also had been fun. At Estelle's question he thought for a moment but he wasn't too familiar with the place yet, so far he hadn't heard anything about where they could send their letters. He glanced at the others, wondering if any of them would know.
Julius | Golden Deer Classroom -> Courtyard
Julius made his way out of the classroom, glad that this lesson was over. He hadn't done too badly but he had hoped for something more interesting. Not that he let anyone know, he was supposed to be excited about trying out learning new things after all. He glanced around his classmates. Maybe he could join some of them in whatever they were planning to do now. When Estelle addressed them he nodded. "Sure. Just head for the market place. I heard you can get it sent there." He rolled his eyes with a slight grin. "You know, they really should put stuff like this on the bulletin boards. We can't just ask the knights for directions for everything."

(Just to avoid confusion, Ambergris isn't Fion's relic. It's only an heirloom c:)
Black Eagles | Adora ➳
Adora looked up, hearing the beat of wings. A couple of the knights were flying on pegasi above them. Training or surveying the grounds? "Different weapons for different enemies," she agreed and turned back to face Nora with a light laugh. "You'd think that the professors and the knights would do all the cooking, huh? And yet, here they are, enlisting the help of students who are 'decent'." It's crazy how easy it would be to poison half the student body in one fell swoop. These surface-dwellers are lucky that our mission isn't mass slaughter. She walked past the classrooms and headed down to the reception hall. "Personally, I've never so much as set foot in a kitchen so you better hope I'm as good at cooking as I am everything else I set my mind to. Just for future reference, what do you like to eat?"
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯
Estelle smiled at Julius gratefully. "Thank you! You are a life-saver!" She said, sparing no hyperbole, and tried to recall where the market place was relative to the classrooms. If I head south, I will find it eventually, I think. "Does anyone else have anything to send? I could take yours too," she offered with a wave of her letter and a questioning tilt of her head. Had Vincent written his letter to Sophia yet?
(Same, really.
I wonder if anyone's made real life recipes for the food in FE:TH?)

Silke | open
Silke, for once, hadn't been in the training grounds. After their class she'd been called to the main office. She returned with a frown on her lips and seemingly preoccupied with her thoughts. The last thing she'd expected was news from her family, yet here she was. And the news wasn't... great. Silke sighed and shook her head.
Megumi | open
During the fights, the taguel hadn't been giving it her all. She hadn't even shifted into her beast form. To her, it was a waste on these human students. When not fighting in her beast form is seemed she had chosen to use a lance. Megumi had fought with one before and could hold her own, even if she wasn't about to win a fight with anyone far more skilled than she.
Luca | open
The dancer was sat at the edge of the training ground, leaning back against a wall with a cool rag over his eyes. In his defense, he'd been staring at his battle partners beautiful eyes and hadn't noticed the weapon about to clonk him over the head. After that Luca had sat out of the fights and tended to the blooming bruise on the side of his head and cheek.
Rekka | with Estelle
The kitsunes ears perked as he walked nearby. He'd been finishing the cup of tea he'd brewed during class, and had just made his way out "Oh! Are you going to the marketplace? I want to come!" he chirped, bounding over. The class had been interesting, he'd learned a lot surprisingly. But the idea of wandering out also made him excited and interested.

(Yup. Checked the list again. But given the description maybe it could be mistaken for a relic at first glance? Oh well, Agnar isn't exactly familiar with most of the crests and relics, probably only the ones from his country, so he would definitely mistake it for one.)
Vincent | Noble Dorms -> Entrance Hall | Open
Vincent had gone back to his room to grab the letter he had written last night. He knew he should write one to his father too but that could wait. Since Friedrich expected him to write about his progress it would make more sense to either write him this evening or at the end of the week. His sister had no such expectations though so he could write her whenever he felt like it. As Vincent walked towards the entrance hall to get to the market place he wondered if any of the other students were writing to their families too. He knew that Estelle had written one but other than that he didn't know of anyone who did.
Nora | near the Reception Hall | AdoraNora only took a brief glance at the knights on their pegasi and shrugged. "I suppose we have to do our part, since we're going to live here for a year." It didn't seem so bad for most tasks anyway. But cooking? Why couldn't they just make a list of students who were good at it and leave it at that? She didn't want to assume too much but to her it seemed very likely that there were some students who couldn't tell sugar from salt. As they reached the reception hall she nodded at Adora's words. "I haven't cooked too many times so I'm no expert either. But I'm sure they'll have some recipes here so I think we'll be fine." She paused for a moment and then continued. "Hm. You can't go wrong with anything sweet. But most other things are fine too. As long as it's not too spicy or has a lot of cheese in it. What about you?" (Heh. Good thing I have a list of liked and disliked foods for all my characters.)
Julius | Courtyard | Estelle, Rekka (mentioned)"You're welcome," Julius said with a smile and a quiet chuckle. "And no, I won't be writing until half-way through the week. Thanks for the offer though." He wasn't exactly looking forward to it but since it was expected of him he didn't have much of a choice. Before he could say more Rekka walked up to them. The kitsune's eagerness didn't surprise him, he had seen plenty of that before class had started. He wondered if he should join Rekka and Estelle. Keeping an eye on Foxy was one of his priorities but he couldn't just stick to the same people all the time. For now he'd wait and see what the others were up to. (That would be fun! But if I'm ever gonna get a cookbook with recipes from some fictional worlds I'll have to start with the one for Redwall! I always get hungry when the woodlanders have one of their many feasts. And yes, Akakios gives dumb, uninspired and sometimes unfitting nicknames to the beastkin. Rekka is Foxy or Foxboy, Megumi is Bunny or Bouncy-Rabbit and Rieka is Wolflet or Snarly. Feel free to punch him.) |

(Yeah, makes sense!)
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯
Estelle nodded to Julius, then turned her attention to Rekka. "Yes, please do!" She said merrily, happy to have some company for her short trip to the postbox. "I believe we need to head down here." She pointed south to the dining hall and fishing pond. With that, she started to walk in the direction she had indicated, calling a goodbye and a 'see you later' over her shoulder to the rest of her classmates.
Black Eagles | Adora ➳
Adora smiled, taking note of her response. "For me... yes, sweet dishes, and I happen to enjoy spicy food as well. I'm not a fan of fish in any of it's iterations, but other than that, I'm not picky." They walked through the reception hall and came out in front of the market place which already seemed to have a number of vendors. The gate out of Garage Mach to the town below stood before them. "Here we are." The gatekeeper called out a friendly hello to them that Adora returned as they passed.
(Do you think they'd keep the door open in the mornings/afternoons? Or raise it every time somebody wants to leave?)
(Ohhh, Redwall. I've heard of it, but never read it. Would you recommend?
Okay. It's kinda endearing though c:)

Nora | Entrance Hall | Adora"That should be easy to keep in mind, then." Maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to ask her other classmates too but that could wait until when more was known about everyone's tasks. Nora just hoped that everyone's food preferences weren't too different. As they passed the gatekeeper Nora also returned his greeting, briefly interrupting her admiration of the entrance hall. Once they had stepped out and walked a bit further she glanced back for a moment and then quickly followed Adora. "Do you think they sell some books about Garreg Mach's history and architecture?" she asked, only half-joking.
Callan | Courtyard -> Training Grounds | OpenCallan nodded as Estelle and Rekka left, saying a quick "See you later" and briefly glanced at the rest of his classmates. He hadn't talked to any of them yet, aside from Julius, and while he knew he had to get to know them better sooner or later he definitely didn't want to deal with all of them at once. "So, uh..." he mumbled, not looking at anyone in particular, "I'll be at the training grounds. See you tomorrow. Or later? Guess we'll probably run into each other before tomorrow..." he silently cursed himself for his awkwardness, forced a grin and quickly walked off. Then he headed straight for the training grounds, planning on either practising with a weapon or his magic. He settled for the latter as he walked to one of the training ground's corners, not wanting to train right in the centre, and began by casting the Miasma Δ spell a couple of times. After a while he paused and tried to make some progress in learning to use his next spell. He knew how to cast a Mire Β, at least in theory, but in practice it was a lot harder to grasp.
(Let's say they keep the gate open. And is that everyone's favorite gatekeeper?)
(Depends on the individual book, really. And on what you usually like to read. Just keep in mind that the Redwall series is very simple when it comes to good and evil creatures, morally gray characters are a rarity. I can tell you more on the planning/chat page later if you want. I want to ask a few things there anyway so don't worry, we won't stray off-topic too far ^^)

Searc-Golden Deer Classroom-Open Searc had found the class today rather boring. He had learned how to make tea a long time ago, so he tuned out what the professor had been talking about. Was it rude to do so? Yes, but he saw no point in listening to something he already knew how to do. he debated on heading back to the training grounds to get in more practice either on his own or seeing if someone there would want to spar with him. Neason-Golden Deer Classroom-Open Neason exited the classroom, he had failed at making the tea. He would work on one part of it but than lose interest and cause for something to go wrong, be it adding to much or to little, or he just missed a few directions. But he shrugged it off, he preferred coffee anyways. He hummed to himself as he debated what he would do now that he was out of class. Ciarra-Golden Deer Classroom->Dining Hall-Open Ciarra headed for the dining hall, having grown hungry. She walked quietly as to not disturb others that moved about the path. She thought over the lesson, it had been fun to learn a new way to make tea, and she found that it tasted better this way. Maybe she could ask the professor at some point for another demonstration. Alastair-Training Grounds->Courtyard-Open Alastair left when class was over, the dancer was exhausted, it was hard to do the sparring when he was paired with someone that used a weapon, heading to the courtyard outside the classrooms. When he got there he laid down on his back as he watched the sky. He wasn't certain what to do with his free time, so he would just wait till he heard of something interesting to be happening. Elara-Training Grounds->Dorms-Open Elara gave a bow to her opponent, and watched as the boy left, she thought his name was Alastair if she remembered right. She placed the weapon away, and began to head for the dorms. She wanted to get changed, as she felt uncomfortable in the know dirtied clothing. She was planning to head to the dining hall after, and hopefully be able to sit with some house mates to learn about them. Orryn-Training Grounds-Grimm, Open Orryn had been taking notes as he watched the students, most seemed comfortable wielding weapons which was good. The house leader, Silke, seemed the best out of them so far. Part of him hoped that would lead to something good, but it could also lead to something bad just as much. He looked at Grimm when the student spoke to him. "Alright thank you," he said, writong it down with the notes he had. "I'll make sure to bring it up!" He gave a small frown at the male's words, he hadn't thought about that risk. "Hopefully no one does cause an explosion." Jason-Knight's Hall->Bridge-Open Jason walked around after the lesson, and found himself on the bridge to the cathedral. The church had a presence in the village he grew up in, but it wasn't as much as other places, from what he heard. So he never fully learned the teachings of Seiros, and granted he had questions in regards to the religion, he didn't want to follow it. He watched the fliers that were making patrols before heading back to try and track down any of the outsiders in his house. Pierce-Knight's Hall->Fishing Pond-Open Pierce headed for the fishing pond. Despite it being closed till tomorrow it didn't stop him from just wanting to go and watch the fish for a bit. He was starting to put an idea of what he was hoping to do with his free time, he would watch the fish for a bit, maybe grab something to eat and than to the library to do some research on one of the bordering lands, maybe he would choose Albinea to learn more about where Rieka came from, it might make it easier to talk to the wolfkin if he ahd an idea on her culture. Imrie-Knight's Hall->Reception Hall-Open Imrie walked into the reception hall. She was planning to head either to the green house, to see if the plants needed to be tended to, but shook her head, they were probably still fine from this morning, at least she hoped that was the truth. She thought about the library, maybe there were books on some of the plants of Fodlan, would be god to learn on her own instead of having to rely on other people to tell her what they were. |

Black Eagles | Adora ➳
"I don't see why they wouldn't," Adora replied with a cursory look back at the entrance hall. It was fairly grand, she supposed. Different to what they had underground which was grand in a different way. "Why not pick up some souvenirs whilst you're at it? Fund that beautiful architecture of theirs." They approached the gate, and Adora explained to the guards that they were going to town and would be back well before nightfall.
(Yesss. He transcends time and space.
Will reply to stuff on the planning page shortly.)

Black Eagles | Grimm ✧
Grimm swiped his wrist across his forehead. He had just finished sparring with another student and was feeling very satisfied with the outcome. "Good fight!" He called out as he returned the training lance to the side and stretched his arms out above his head indulgently. Everyone else's matches seemed to be drawing to a close as well so it was likely close to the end of the lesson. If it were up to him, he would have one more fight, but he didn't need to be in a class setting for that, did he? He could always ask Silke or maybe Vincent. He turned to face Orryn. "Hey, teach! I'm a pretty decent cook if I do say so myself. Thought I'd mention it since I'm sure there are some people here who would sooner blow up the dining hall than create anything edible."
I'll get some more character starters up later c:) |

He called out as he returned the training lance to the side and stretched his arms out above his head indulgently. Everyone else's matches seemed to be drawing to a close as well so it was likely close to the end of the lesson. If it were up to him, he would have one more fight, but he didn't need to be in a class setting for that, did he? He could always ask Silke or maybe Vincent. He turned to face Orryn. "Hey, teach! I'm a pretty decent cook if I do say so myself. Thought I'd mention it since I'm sure there are some people here who would sooner blow up the dining hall than create anything edible."
I'll get some more character starters up later c:)Fixed it! Thank you!) |

Golden Deer | Estelle ✯
"I do not know," Estelle admitted. "Maybe they sell weapons?" The fishing pond and greenhouse came into view. From there, the market place would be a matter of going either left or right. She didn't remember which.
"This," She lifted the letter to the light and smiled fondly, "is for my father and the other astronomers at the Observatory. I promised them that I would write back as soon as possible, set their worries to rest, you know?" The astronomers had been protective of her ever since she was little. With only her father in terms of blood relation, each of them had taken it upon themselves to treat her as family. Though Altair would get busy, there had always been someone for Estelle to talk to and always someone to coddle her.
Black Eagles | Grimm ✧
Grimm gave Orryn a thumbs up. "I wouldn't worry - you guys are probably equipped for that kind of thing." It would be fun to see the dining hall burst up in flame so long as he wasn't the culprit.
Brushing dark hair out of his face, he left on an aimless walk, not quite sure what he planned to do next, only to come across Silke. Does she look upset? She does, right? I'm not really the comforting type... He considered walking past her, not sure if he wanted to involve himself in whatever was upsetting her but decided to stick around anyway. Maybe he could get her to spar with him. "Morning, princess. Didn't see you at class."

Golden Deer | Professor Philomel ❀
Philomel walked up the stairs to the second floor. He noticed that neither of the other professors had arrived yet whilst he was returning to his own room to fetch the Golden Deer profiles. Papers now in hand, he decided to scan through them once again as he waited.
Blue Lions | Fion ♔
After class, Fion, had wandered in search of one of the monastery's many cats. He found a small, rag-tag group of them surrounding what looked to be a student sleeping on the ground. Quietly, he walked up to a round tabby and kneeled next to it, not realising until he was next to the sleeping boy that he wasn't sleeping at all. "Ah, my apologies, I did not realise you were awake," he murmured from where he crouched, stroking the cat.

Rekka | with Estelle
"Oh! That's fun! I hope they get it soon." he smiled. His tribe didn't take outside mail, so he hadn't even thought of writing something. It didn't really bother him, there was so much to do here he didn't want to sit down and write a letter. Rekka looked around and tilted his head to the side "Hm, I wonder which way we need to head down. We could just choose one and go, it would be an adventure!"

Golden Deer | Estelle ✯
Estelle laughed gently. "Alright! Lead the way," she said to the kitsune. There was plenty of time for them to explore and for her to deliver her letter before dark. "So. Your tribe. How many of you are there, Rekka?" When she envisioned the tribes, she assumed that they must be as big as towns and full of kitsune. "Oh! And do you all have ears and tails?"

Rekka | with Estelle
He hummed thoughtfully, choosing a path at random and making his way down it "Probably about as many as a medium sized town. Many of them are younger, our older generations spent much time fighting with humans." and fighting with humans lead to death. It had taken a while for their group to recover after the final fight with humans that led to the hesitant peace. Thankfully only the oldest of their tribe held deep seated grudges "And yes! Everyone has a pair of ears and a tail at birth." he flicked his tail and ears. Whether or not you managed to keep them through the years depended on your general life safety and fighting skill.

Alastair-Courtyard-Fion Alastair looked briefly to the voice that spoke. He didn't recognize the body that voice belonged to, but thanks to the uniform he could at least piece together that the male was a student at the Officer's Academy. He turned his gaze to the cats around him, he had been content in the position, and when cats had come around it caused him to stay around as he didn't want to scare them off. "It's alright," he said, as he carefully held a hand out to one of the cats to sniff, and when his scent was accepted, he carefully scratched under the cat's chin. Orryn-Training Hall->Professors Rooms-Grimm(briefly) "We do," he said and gave a brief wave as Grimm took off. "It's a good thing there is a good source of water near by the dining hall if it does occur as well." He commented the last part mainly to himself as he thought about the fishing pond being in front of the dining hall. he headed for the Professors rooms. He hoped this would be were the meeting was, as he couldn't recall if Professor Philomel said where they would be talking. |

Nora | Gate | AdoraNora gave a quiet laugh and shrugged. "I just think its architecture is fascinating. It's definitely something I want to look into some more." She waited as Adora talked to the guards and gave brief wave, just so they wouldn't think she was ignoring them. Once they were done she grinned at Adora and walked on ahead. "Alright, looks like we're good to go now!" Vincent | Marketplace | OpenVincent left the entrance hall and was now strolling through the marketplace, looking for the postbox that was supposed to be there somewhere. He glanced at the various stands, people selling weapons and other useful stuff, even a blacksmith was there. Maybe he would check out the weapons later but first he had to drop off his letter. Callan | Courtyard -> Training Grounds | (briefly with the other Golden Deer), OpenCallan nodded as Estelle and Rekka left, saying a quick "See you later" and briefly glanced at the rest of his classmates. He hadn't talked to any of them yet, aside from Julius, and while he knew he had to get to know them better sooner or later he definitely didn't want to deal with all of them at once. "So, uh..." he mumbled, not looking at anyone in particular, "I'll be at the training grounds. See you tomorrow. Or later? Guess we'll probably run into each other before tomorrow..." he silently cursed himself for his awkwardness, forced a grin and quickly walked off. Then he headed straight for the training grounds, planning on either practising with a weapon or his magic. He settled for the latter as he walked to one of the training ground's corners, not wanting to train right in the centre, and began by casting the Miasma Δ spell a couple of times. After a while he paused and tried to make some progress in learning to use his next spell. He knew how to cast a Mire Β, at least in theory, but in practice it was a lot harder to grasp. (unfortunately he's not the type to approach others on his own)
Julius | Courtyard | NeasonJulius waved after Estelle and Rekka and nodded as Callan headed for the training grounds. Then he turned to see if there was anyone left. It seemed like Neason and Searc were the only ones. As they were neither beastkin nor outsiders they weren't of much importance to him but keeping an eye on the house leader wasn't such a bad idea either. Especially considering what he had heard from Cora and Levin, his "siblings". Those two had told him something quite... interesting. Not that he could let them know, of course. But he had experience with that. Pretending and acting. With a grin he looked at Neason. "Hey there, leader," he greeted him. "Pretty unusual lesson, huh?"
(Since we agreed on the planning page that they have met before as kids I thought I'd try to somewhat use that. But in Searc's profile it says that he and Neason only went into town in disguises. Depending on how good they were maybe Julius and his siblings suspected something at some point?)
Agnar | Knights' Hall -> Bridge | JasonAgnar decided to go back to that bridge again for a bit. He walked through the reception hall, briefly waved to Imrie as he passed her and quickly headed for the other door. As he exited the hall he suddenly stepped back, having almost walked straight into Jason. He gave a quick apology and shot a glance towards the bridge behind the other student. "Didn't expect to see anyone here," he said. "I thought I was the only one enjoying hanging out at that bridge." Konstantin | Professors RoomsKonstantin was heading for the professors rooms where he expected the meeting to take place. He briefly went to his own room to drop of the notes from today's lesson, as they were only about his observations about their fighting skills and no one had voiced any wishes for any particular tasks, and to fetch his students' profiles. Jasmine | Stables -> Dining Hall | CiarraJasmine had returned the horse she had been practising with to the stables and was now making her way over to the dining hall. She was quite happy with today's progress, she and the horse seemed to work pretty well together now and had built up enough trust over the time she had trained with him. It had been difficult at first but now she could barely imagine that. Practising with Hephaestus, as she had named it at the blacksmith's suggestion, had become almost as easy as her training with axes and gauntlets at the training grounds. That didn't change the fact that she was hungry after training. And today's dish was one of her favorites, no way she would miss out on that. On her way there she passed one of the students, only noticing her right as she was about to enter the dining hall. "Oh, sorry," she said quickly as she stepped aside to make way for Ciarra. "Didn't mean to cut in like that."

Black Eagles | Adora ➳
Adora nodded. Everyone had their hobbies and if Nora needed to go to a bookstore for hers, Adora could certainly find something of interest there too. "I'm sure they'll sell books somewhere," she asserted, returning her grin as they passed the guards and entered town proper. "Ever considered becoming an architect yourself? I suppose it must be gratifying, seeing buildings you've built stand the test of time." Assuming they aren't razed to the ground. "I'm too far down my path to becoming a star actress to consider doing anything else."
Blue Lions | Fion ♔
"The cats seem to like you," Fion said, watching Alastair for a moment. Something in his face made him think that the other boy wasn't from Fódlan but whether he was from Sreng, Albinea or Morfis, he didn't know. "I am Fion Lamaire, Blue Lion house leader," he introduced himself politely. "We have a couple of cats back home so it is nice to see so many of them here." And they seem to be thriving, he though with a look at the plump tabby.
Golden Deer | Professor Philomel ❀
Philomel smiled warmly at the other professors, one arriving shortly before the other. "Right! Shall we begin?" He gestured towards the three rooms in turn. "I was not sure which room you wanted to use." In one hand he held a pot of Crescent-Moon tea as per Konstantin's suggestion, in the other he held the Golden Deer profiles of which he was now fairly familiar with.

Rekka | with Estelle
He grinned and swished his tail to the side "You can touch it if you want, I'm not so old fashioned that I mind." Rekka was simply friendly, and he wasn't worried about Estelle trying to skin him for his fur. He doubted she'd do such a thing "As for fun, we like to hunt and run. Oh, and play a game kinda like hide and seek. Since we can shift it's a bit more engaging than a normal game of it though." extreme hide and seek was a go to for the children and young adults of the tribe.

hmm i feel since they were kids it wasnt anything to elaborate, probably them dressing in what would be considered 'peasant clothing' with them being noble children, and than lying about their names, but if we want they could have told just Julius and his siblings of their true identities??) Neason-Courtyard-Julius Neason looked over at the sudden voice, snapping him from his thoughts. "Oh hello," he greeted, with a cheerful smile. Something about the boy seemed familiar, did he just have one of those faces? Neason looked closely at the boy's face as he tried to pin point where he knew him. it wasn't from them being classmates, he knew that much. He shook out his head, hopefully talking with him a bit more will help him figure it out. "Yea it was interesting, especially for it being the first day. But I suppose it was nice to have an easy day for it no?" Ciarra-Dining Hall-Jasmine Ciarra blinked at the sudden presence of the knight. She gave a small bow. "No it's alright," she said, gesturing for the knight to go through first. "You got to the door first." She didn't mind having to wait to enter, after all the knights worked hard to help the church and keep everyone safe. Jason-Bridge-AgnarJason jumped caught off guard from the voice. Looking to see Agnar, he studied the boy quietly befor efinally speaking. "I guess," he said, rubbing the back of his head a bit. "I'm kind of just walking around getting familiar with everything still." But so far he liked the bridge out of everywhere else, maybe it was just the feeling of the wind or just the scenery around it, but it had a calming effect. "Does anything in particular bring you here though?"
Alastair-Courtyard-Fion "I'm glad that they do," he said, carefully sitting up. Alastair carefully picked up the cat he had been petting and placed the furry creature in his lap. He returned to petting the cat, after letting it figure out if it wanted to remain in his lap or leave, but he was happy when the cat choose to remain. "I'm Alastair Umbra, a Black Eagles student." He perked at the last comment that the house leader made. "You have cats at your home???" So they can be found all over Fodlan?? Man does Albinea suck sometimes. He thought to himself, sure he loved his home but it was to cold for cats to be able to live in the country. Orryn-Professors Rooms-Other Professors Orryn gave a bow to the two older men, when he entered the room with his own student profiles after retrieving them from his office. "I don't think it should matter, the rooms should be quiet as the students seem to be exploring still so we shouldn't have to worry to much about getting interrupted," he said. "But maybe the infirmary just in the event someone is injured?" i believe this is all if not feel free to correct me and i will get one up when i ahve the chance, im going to be attempting an all nighter to do some stuff for school so i should be around should i not pass out) |

Golden Deer | Estelle ✯"Really? You are sure?" Estelle's eyes rounded. She waited for his confirmation, then gingerly reached out to run her fingers through the soft fur of his tail. "It's sooo soft," she murmured half to herself. I wonder, does he comb it to get it this silky? After a moment, she drew her hand back and resumed walking. "I bet playing hide and seek with our whole class could be fun! Maybe you could show us how the kitsune play it!"Black Eagles | Grimm ✧Brushing dark hair out of his face, Grimm left on an aimless walk, not quite sure what he planned to do next, only to come across Silke. Does she look upset? She does, right? I'm not really the comforting type... He considered walking past her, not sure if he wanted to involve himself in whatever was upsetting her but decided to stick around anyway. Maybe he could get her to spar with him. "Morning, princess. Didn't see you at class."
(𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚛𝚔𝚜𝚌𝚊𝚝𝚝𝚎𝚛 ^)Blue Lions | Fion ♔Fion looked faintly surprised. "Are there no cats where you live?" Cats were rather common place, no? Faerghus' capital of Fhirdiad certainly had a lot of them. He continued to stroke the lazy tabby at his feet, thinking about whether he should go to the library after this conversation. Meeting Alastair and Agnar had him wanting to learn more about the countries (continents?) outside his own. Golden Deer | Professor Philomel ❀
Philomel shrugged. Technically, the Infirmary was connected to his room so he had no issue with using it for the meeting, and the other professor did have a point in regards to injuries. "Is that alright with you, Konstantin? If so, I will get to brewing this lovely tea," he said, giving the pot a shake.
(Take care, Ember! Get some good sleep after that all-nighter c:)

(Aww, no cats in Albinea? Guess it's really too cold for them. But just imagine... some super fluffy mewling kittens that are more fur than cat!
Sure, we could do that! I guess after some time they figured they could trust them with their identities.)
Nora | Town | Adora
"Hm. It's a nice thought but probably nothing more than that," Nora said as they reached the town. "My father has always wished for us to have a higher standing so he wants me to marry into a 'well-respected' noble family, with my main purpose being a good wife and mother." She snorted at this and rolled her eyes. It wasn't like her family commanded no respect, they actually were some of the better known minor nobles. But she guessed for some people that just wasn't good enough. "How about I make a list of all the other nobles in our class and write down why he wouldn't want to be associated with any of these guys? I'm sure I'd find something for him to complain about!" She quietly laughed to herself at the absurdity of this idea. There was no way that could work, she was sure of that, but it definitely helped to lighten the mood.
Julius | Courtyard | Neason
"It wasn't bad, I guess," Julius agreed with a light chuckle. "I don't know much about brewing tea so I'm just glad that I made something decent. Gotta show that us commoners can keep up with you guys!" As he spoke he gestured in a deliberately over-exaggerated proud way and then let out a laugh that was carefree but not disrespectful. Then he turned a bit more serious and looked the other boy over, as if he was wondering about something. "So uh..., sorry if that might be rude, I should probably know at least who the nobles in my class are after all, but I don't think I got your name. I haven't really talked to anyone yesterday. Spent too much time exploring the place."
Jasmine | Dining Hall | Ciarra
Jasmine hesitated for a second, wondering if she should insist in letting the other girl go first, but then nodded and went in before her. She didn't want to get caught up in an annoying and overly polite series of 'No, after you's that would get them nowhere. "If you say so. Thanks." With a friendly smile she looked at the other girl as she went to stand in line for the food. So far Jasmine had only really interacted with one of the students and she was a bit curious about the others as well. Most of them, at least. "First day of class, huh? Compared to the rest of the year the first days are pretty relaxed so use them to get familiar with everything here."
Agnar | Bridge | Jason
"Ah, I see." Agnar had already explored most of the monastery yesterday so he more or less had an idea where everything was. At Jason's question he nodded. "I suppose I just like the view from here. It's not the only place but it definitely has the best one. I guess you could say I'm fascinated by how everything here looks. Fódlan sure is different from Albinea."
Konstantin | Professors Rooms | Philomel, Orryn
"I have no objections," Konstantin replied with a small nod and smiled at the prospect of tea. Orryn had made a good point in regard to where their meeting should take place. While he liked to believe that none of the students would do anything crazy enough to get themselves injured, at least in their freetime, he knew not to underestimate their... creativity when it came to sparring and exploring. While the rules were clear about how weapons and magic were supposed to be handled there were always some students who had to learn from experience that those rules were in place for a reason.
