Class 1-B: First Day Orientation

[Autumn Madison]

“A peacock? I do believe I can manage that.” Autumn informed with a bright smile, excited that Yukie had given her something so detailed. Autumn found perfecting detail in her projected images a constant battle. Her Alice was like an art to her and she, raised by outgoing parents, was a perfectionist. She took a minute to vision the majestic bird inside of the confines of her own mind, mapping every detail and noting every color before even daring to conjure it for all to see.

“Concentration is key, after all,” her parents would say when she became frustrated with a math problem or troublesome vocabulary. Autumn found she could apply it to anything, including her Alice.

Autumn dared to take a different strategy on her presentation. In most cases she would focus on one point of the image she wished to relay and work of off that, building it adjacent piece by adjacent piece. This time, she decided she’d get the whole outline out in one bang, then let the rainbow palette in her head go to work. The peacock formed as planed in a sudden burst of black. No details were available, just a simple silhouette. Pleased with her progress so far, Autumn continued with more confidence, imagining the color and letting each haze her vision as she detailed the bird of tremendous tail.

After five minutes, which Autumn admitted was longer than usual for her hologram production, a peacock of royal purples and deep indigo blue tail feathers, dashed with hints of attention grabbing greens and a beautiful mesh of oranges and browns that glinted gold stood upon the ground, however unmoving, like a statue. Unfortunately, Autumn found she could not give movement to the bird without doing justice to it’s beauty.

“Ah…” Autumn sighed, brushing a hand down the length of her hair in a slightly nervous, disappointed manner. “I’m sorry it doesn’t do much more…but…it’s hard to balance movement and attention to detail. I guess “multi-tasking” isn’t a talent of mine quite yet…Not when concerning such large and grand creations anyway…”

[Yukie Uehara]

Yukie's eyes grew wide as the silhouette of a peacock appeared infront of her, slowly getting color as the girl named Autumn stood their concentrating. With each new burst of color and newly defined detail on the bird, more and more excitement shone from Yukie's face until after five minutes the bird was complete.

"Waaiii!! Kirei!! It's so beautiful Autumn," the Japanese girl excalimed while clasping her hands together and jumping up and down a little, taking care to not let her skirt fly up as she did so. "Can I touch it? And its fine that it doesn't do more than stand there. It's so beautiful!"

The girl looked back and forth from the peacock to the girl who had conjoured it with her two toned eyes while holding out a hand as if to ask again if it really was ok to touch it before she went ahead and did just that.

[Maximillian Bostalk]

((If you're having problems dealing witht he censor, PM me about it. But it's likely something you'll want to take to the Admin herself... Cuz I have no powers as a mod... XD))

Bostalk just sat back, watching the students in their little shenannigans. He was acutally the one to be learning today. Each student had their unique character, which effected how they learned. Madison was more easily intimidated than someone like Xhosa. And Endrin's reluctance would have to be balanced out by Yuuko's unbridled outbursts of emotion. In fact, his little "scare the students shitless" joke had a reason to it as well. People always showed their true selves when the unexpected happened. And around Bostalk, the unexpected was the only thing that could happen.

"I should introduce myself to you all as well." That smile that had seemed so unexpected because of his little act was now plastered on his face, like it was permanent. Another thing that seemed permanent was the closed state of his eyes. He only opened them for dramatic effect.

"My name is Maximillian Bostalk, your teacher for the rest of the year. I've only just begun teaching, and so I'm looking forward to learning with all of you. As long as we all can get along, I'm sure we'll have plenty of fun. I used to be in the military, until my Alice came up unexpectedly. And even though that was years ago, I still cannot control it. It's called the Chaos Alice, but some call it a disaster waiting to happen. This is because the Alice generates a completely random effect, with-"

The words were cut off imediately as a puff of white smoke repalced their teacher. In his place, there was a cute, little, fuzzy kitten, with a red tie still hanging loosely around it's neck.

"Mew?" The kitten's weak voice came out as it tilted it's head, puzzled.

[Yukie Uehara]

Yukie turned her attention away from the peacock saddly to listen to the teacher introduce himself to them. Raising an eye brow at the mention of being a "Chaos Alice" she looked around to see if the other students knew what he was talking about. But before she could get an answer - let alone ask her question - from anyone the teacher was suddenly a... kitten!

"Ano... Sensei-san?" She questioned softly knealing down while tucking her skirt between her legs to appear proper. Reaching out one hand she tried to call the teacher turned kitten over to her. She had to admit, the red tie around the kittens neck was adorable. Yet, at the sight of the cat, the sparrow on her shoulder flew away not wanting to become that day's meal for the fuzzy creature.

[Endrin]

Endrin let out a soft chuckle when his teacher turned in to a kitten with a red tie. He doubted that it was intentional since he said that he couldn't control it. He didn't know what to do in fact. Should they get another staff member to help or somthing? Could another staff member help? Or was he going to turn back soon. He had no idea on how long the effects could last because he had never seen anyone transform let alone do it unintentionally. Endrin looked around at the other students questioningly hopeing that someone else could step up or somthing and do somthing.

"Should we like take him to the nurse or somthing? I have no idea on what we are supposed to do in a situation like this."

If only this was a normal school with normal staff and students this stuff wouldn't be happening but then again he would probably be getting his lunch money stolen by now then. So this was probably the best situation considering the alternitives.

OOC: I still like the toad I suggested better =P

[Yukie Uehara]

"I don't know... I think he makes a cute little kitten. Let's wait and see how long he stays one before we do anything about it," Yukie replied still trying to coax the kitten to come towards her. Though, the thought of "petting" her teacher when he was a kitten and could suddenly turn human again at any moment almost made her not want to touch the kitten, she still couldn't help but find it adorable.

"Plus, what happens if while we were taking him to the nurse he became human again and smashed us all with his weight? American's are too fat," she commented wrinkling her nose a little. Well, what she said was kind of true... compared to Japanese like herself. Though, it was probably mean to call her teacher fat when at any moment he could punish her for it.

[Endrin]

Endrin was a litle taken aback by the comment as he was American and was pretty thin himself. He knew people from other countries hated them because his parents liked to talk about curent affairs and really did not care for the curent President though he saw no reason why not. Life seemed the same with him as it did with any other president. But, she still didn't need to be so rude to his people. After all he wasn't making comments on how weak Japanese people were since he seemed to be stronger then most of the people from Japan he had met so far.

"Hey! I am American you know. And, I am far from fat."

Endrin's normally shy nature was over come with his anger at the comment which he was probably taking to heart a little too much because he pictured her calling him and his family fat. As well as his old friends and noneof them had been fat all were fit and athletic.

[Yuuko]

"Wow, now there's an Alice for ya," Yuuko said at the appearence of the cat, pretty fascinated by the fact that it was there. Now, the question was whether or not the teacher was going to be stuck like that, or if there was a way to get him back to normal. She smirked and leaned back, knowing that at least she hadn't turned herself into the cow for a perminent amount of time. And even if she had, it was just the way she looked to other people, not her true appearence.

"You know, for some reason I'm beginning to think that the whole sprinkler thing wasn't quite all his fault," the redhead stated with a grin, finding the whole thing just to be so humorous. Who had a teacher that couldn't control his own Alice? She really hoped that he wasn't the teacher of the Active Class on Friday. Though she didn't think so, she had some other teacher she'd never met for that.

"Can we change his name? Oh, oh! Let's call him Mr. Mew! That way, they'll always know exactly who we're talking about, since I don't think I've got his name down." She began to chuckle a little, and then remembered what the students must have been wanting to call her in her cow appearence. A slight pinch of guilt flew over her, but it quickly evaporated. She was always the victim, it was somebody else's turn!

[Maximillian Bostalk]

His little kitten ears had heard everything. The fat American comment, the new name, all of it. Some of it was kind of cute. But, the kids would prbably never see the little kitten again. With so many possibilities, it was hard to see a repeat performance of any one effect. And this one was about to end.

In a similar poof of smoke that had brought them Mr. Mew, the real Bostalk popped back into being. No longer was he the adorable, tie-wearing kitten, but back to the same freaky teacher with the red eyes he kept hidden behind his eyelids.

"Sorry about that children, but from the sound of it, you rather enjoyed my moment as a kitten." He looked like he was about to say something else, but instead he sneezed. During the sneeze, he covered his nose with his arm, and a poof of confetti came from his nose.

"Well, that was new, yo."

[Yuuko]

Yuuko chuckled a little as the confetti came out her teacher's nose, but she was so intrigued. This Alice was something she had never seen before, and it held such power. Not to mention that he could probably relate to not being able to control what happened and at any given moment could shift into one thing or another. At least that explained the whole sprinkler incident, which she was happy not to repeat.

"Sir, I must say, that is an amazing Alice. Do you ever find that it brings you closer to your students to not have control over it? Oh, I didn't mean any offense at all by that, sir, I don't even know if you can or can not control it. I was only rushing to assumptions. My apologies..." she sighed, not wanting to offend the teacher or anything. There was a new respect in her voice for him, whether the others understood it or not.

[Endrin]

Things where getting stranger and stranger all day. His teacher was no longer a kitten but back to his normal self and he just sneezed out confetti. It seemed that he really was telling the truth about his Alice being chaos. After all his effects seemed to hold no pattern except for happening at really bad times. It was humorious for sure though he felt a little bad for the teacher because it must get annoying to have stuff happen all the time. Endrin wanted to know how he dealt with it so his spoke up his voice starting to lose it's timid tone as he started to become more comfortable with the others.

"Sir... how do you deal with it? Like not knowing what is gonna happen and when. It must be tiresome."

[Yukie Uehara]

Yukie looked over at Endrin and smiled. "You're also a kid still. I didn't say really mean that all of them are fat... just most of them. That and he is a lot bigger than any of us. I'm sorry to offend you," she replied politely while standing up and fixing her skirt a little before offering her hand to shake hands even though it was well... different for her, but she might as well show some sort of culture respect. "Accept my apology?"

While she stood there waiting for Endrin's responce the teacher had turned back into a human again which made the young Japanese girl jump and blush. "Eheh... Kon'nichi wa Sensei-san! Ano... gomen ne about calling you fat.... but...." she tentavely poked his side. "You are bigger than me."

But as soon as she finished poking him he went to sneeze causing her to jump back again and let out a little scream as confetti flew from his nose. "Sensei-san, are you ok?"

[Endrin]

Endrin gladly took her hand and shook it with a smile on his face. He would hold no grudges with her since it was an honest misundersanding and she did seem sorry. He felt better though since she did apoligize that really meant a lot since he was from a political family and took pride in his country.

"Of course I accept it. Friends?"

[Maximillian Bostalk]

"Well, Yuuko, you all are really my first class that I'm going to be teaching full-time. So, my lack of control hasn't really been a boon or bane to my work. But, I'm glad that you're not still sore aobut the sprinklers. The school probably put me in charge of an elementary class because I would be able to relate to them though. Hopefully, we'll get along just fine, yo." He suddenly had a lot of questions to answer from inquiring young minds, and he was more than happy to give them a few answers. Hopefully though, by the end of thier time together as a class, they'd be able to find their own answers.

"Yukie, don't worry about it, yo. Just watch what you say around those that might be sensitive."

"Endrin, at first, it was pretty frustrating. I lost my job over it, too. But, after a few years, I've learned to just 'go with the flow' of the Alice. Now, you may think I wouldn't be qualified to teach others how to control their Alices, but... I have tried every known way to control it. And through all my experimentation, i have a deep understanding of Alice control, even if I can't apply it, yo."

But now that he had the big questions down, he had one of his own.

"Yuuko? I was planning on getting a cat... Do you mind if I use the name you made up, Mr. Mew? It was really cute, yo."

[Yukie Uehara]

Yukie smiled happily as she shook hands with Endrin. "Hai! Friends!" Giggling softly she turned to face her teacher and listened to what he had to say to her. Nodding she gave a polite bow, her hair falling over her shoulders again along with the ends of her ribbons. "I'll be better about what I say in the future Sensei-san," she said obidently. Though, why she was only refering to him as Sensei-San she had no clue, especially when he introduced himself to them.

[Yuuko]

Yuuko nodded to Mr. Bostalk's explination of control and how he was able to qualify as a teacher for controlling the other Alices. She was not quite aware of the methods used, but she had heard a few terms used here and there. The one that scared her the most was the term "limiter" which she really despised the sound of. To limit something was never a good thing, to keep something good in check so it would not become a bad thing, was good.

"Well that sure would make sense," she said quietly to herself, nodding slowly to the whole thing. Alices were such a fascinating subject, and she wanted to learn more about them. However, that would come on her Friday class, she knew that. Sometimes she wished that she could at least peek in on the Special Class so she could see some of the more unique Alices. But what she really wanted to know deep down was how they worked and why certain people had certain Alices.

"Oh? You want to use the name Mr. Mew? Why, I'd be honored, sir! I've never had a teacher like a name I've created before," Yuuko beamed and nodded immediately when asked for permission to use the name. She was so glad that everything was going over well at this school, even turning into a cow. Yes, she and this teacher would perhaps get along well after all. He wasn't as scary as before, he was just another person who didn't have much control over his powers. She understood that, and now, he didn't seem so intimidating anymore.

[Yukie Uehara]

Turning to Yuuko, the young bird pheromone alice smiled. "Well, it was a cute name after all," Yukie said matter-of-factly before turning back to her teacher. "Ne, Bostalk-sensei," she paused and wrinkled her her nose at how difficult it was for her to say his name before continuing "What exactly are we going to learn today? Surely something more entertaining than what they teach us in regular schools. Like about our Alice! Or do we have to wait for our special classes to learn more in regards to Alice?"

The young girl didn't really care too much, but she was eager to do something besides standing there for hours on end, which indeed unnerved her, especially when she could be doing something productive.

[eddie]

((OoC - I am going to make my guy fall asleep so DONT FRICKEN WAKE HIM...cos I aint here ok!))

I was in shock, I think I had blown my funny fuse. There was this 'military man' who had just poofed himself into a kitten. The girls and lucky were talking about new names and I was...stuck. Between a point of an uncontrolable urge of laughter and the fact I was much mopre weaker than i cared to admit. With a snort I fell backwards. Eyes wandering through the sky, as I slowly drifted off to sleep...not caring to talk (or listen) anymore. With in a few moments I was asleep dreaming of an ice cream palace, as me as it's king. It was a good dream!

As I slept in the sun light I gave off a faint bluish glow, the sun was being conducted while I sleep. I really had little control over it. A small snoring sound escaped my chest.

[Hajime Kilota]

Kalki ran into the class, he bowed to the Teacher.
"I'm very sorry for being late, Sir."
He sat down in the closest free seat and looked around, he saw the sleeping person and shrugged looking to the front.

[*^Nancy~۞]

(OoC: Sorry if I'm late to post. Didn't get internet access during the trip to Florida.... >.< And aren't we still outside?)

Her eyes wide with terror as she stared at the floor when she walked. This would be the fifteenth time she was late for anything. She was embarrassed that she was late, and that she was wearing the boy's uniform. She didn't know how they would react to a girl wearing a boy's uniform. But, she still didn't care that much either. Then.... The sprinklers. Great. This just made my day. First, I'm late, then I get lost, now someone started a fire AND SET THE SPRINKLERS ON THAT GOT ME FREAKIN' WET.... Reminds me of the time when I was in the second grade... Now THAT was funny.... She quickly, and swiftly, got outside. Still nothing to do. She didn't know where her class was. All she knew was that she was in class 1B.

Bored, she extended her jaw outwards and blew upwards, making her hair fly and then fall as she fell into the earth. It seems she should ditch the first day. Her parents wouldn't know, until they get a call from the academy when they find out, so why not? When she fully was in the ocean of dirt, she swiftly moved and came up for a breath of air. She opened up her mouth and gulped down some air. Oh. If you had saw this scene, you'd be thinking, "What the hell?" right now. She forgot that the only thing above the ground was her head, and since she was near a group of people, she believed she might've scared the heck out of them. Nervous and embarrassed, her head sank quickly as she came up for air somewhere else. This time, her upper body, 'bout to her waist, came up with her head as she pushed herself up with her hands.
