[Now that looks fun. He watches the display of powers with unreserved interest, and when she manages to score a particularly impressive goal, he applauds.]

Phweet! [It sounds like he's trying to whistle but doesn't quite manage it, instead making a whistle-like sound with his voice.] That was really im~press~ive!

Yuui Fluorite | Shiritsu Horitsuba Gakuen (Clamp) | Prose

[the_saner_one]

Yuui's finding the school very difficult to manoeuvre in and he keeps getting lost. Of course, it doesn't help that Fai told him to meet him in the 'shiny place with all the cool stuff in it" before running off. Having known his brother all his life he assumes this meant some kind of chemistry lab. The problem is that he has no idea where this lab may be or if there might even be several of them, this is a rather large school after all.

Also his head was beginning to ache from all the english around him. It wasn't that he had trouble understanding, born and mostly raised in the states as he was, it was more that after having lived in Italy for nearly three years suddenly hearing a different sound around him felt strange. It also made him unfocused, as proved by the fact that he just bumped into his forth person for the day.

"Scusi" The Italian word comes out automatically and and he flushes lightly. "I.. I'm sorry."

[ooc: Yuui's identical twin Fai has been in the school for two years, without having mentioned that he has a twin, so please feel free to confuse them. The only difference between them are their choice of clothing and that Yuui has a bit longer hair.]

[ Have some rather enthusiastic applauds and a very happily smiling Yuui. It's been too long since he heard Italian! ]

Bravo! Very good. And it's nice to hear another language than english around here!

[ He speaks in flawless Italian but with perhaps the trace of an accent. ] 

[Intranet]

[the_saner_one]

[ Have a very kind, if slightly teasing, smile directed at you. You might recognize this person, perhaps even from your own chemistry class, but the person you've seen is more than likely his twin since Yuui is still very new to the school. ]

Ah... your parter's name wouldn't happen to be Fai, would it? If it is, I'm really very sorry for his behaviour. And if not, well you probably should accept him as a parter if he shouldn't volunteer.

I'm afraid I'm not very good with chemistry myself. He is but... well... flirting is sort of his default so he'll probably do it without even trying to.

N9 it's n9t, th9ugh I d9 appreciate y9ur c9cern and care ab9ut the well 6eing 9f my essay writing dev....er my key69ard.

This is just simply my preferred manner 9f writing 9n the internet. A way to differentiate me fr9m the rest 9f the faceless masses 9n the web.

[n99neescapes]

Did I? Thank y9u f9r 6ringing that t9 my attenti9n. I'll have it fixed sh9rtly.

[n99neescapes]

Unfounately, Kankri would not notice till he went to grab another piece of toast. There's some jam on his sleeve and face.

"What?"

Cue him chasing after the plate, tripping over the chairs, once he caught sight of it.

[diseasing]

[She climbs up onto the edge of the bench, kneeling beside Yuugi as she gesticulates even more vigorously.]

There, there—!

[At this rate, she'll just take the cloth and clean it herself...]

retroactively adjusting her typing style, don't mind me!!

[diseasing]

oh. so it's kind of like a signature? [...] why did you pick those numbers, though? it's kind of hard to read.

[diseasing]

She wasn't relenting, her smile still firmly in place.

"You can finish the book later."

[growing_pains]

You've got... fish parts or something, right? Or is it lizard...?

[growing_pains]

[ Yuugi leans down more, head turned up so she doesn't accidentally stab Yamame in the forehead or something. ] You're gonna have to show me, Yacchan.

[growing_pains]

"I do, now." As if Yuugi wasn't considering it up until that second, because she probably wasn't. Straightforward as always, all she could do was shrug a shoulder. "Don't really know what I'd be apologizing for, so I won't."

[diseasing]

[Yamame half crawls over Yuugi's lap so she can take the rag from her, fully intending commence polishing her horn for her if allowed.]

He~re!

[green_eyed]

"I'm not spelling this out for you!" Parsee growled, turning to face Yuugi, finally. Her make-up was running... make-up she wore for Yuugi in the first place.

"You know how I am... and you went and opened your stupid fucking mouth anyways..."

[green_eyed]

Parsee was used to being bumped into. She was small, often quiet, and in a school of mutants fairly easy to miss (something she was honestly thankful for most of the time). What she was not used to, however, was Italian. Her long ears visibly twitched, and she put on a confused look. The hell did that guy just say?

"You got a problem, pretty boy?" And of course her first reaction was to assume he insulted her.

[the_saner_one]

His general response to any kind of general anger, at least when directed towards him, is to smile kindly and act as calmly as possible. So that what's he going to do here, with an added hint of confusion because all he really did was bump into her. That wasn't that bad, was it?

"Ah, no? No problem. Well, I can't find anything in this place and my brother has run off to god knows where but I don't think that's the kind of problem you mean."

[green_eyed]

If he was covering up his earlier insult, it was done in such a way that Parsee might as well let it go. With a sigh, she let some of the tension roll out of her. After a moment, she turned her gaze downward, as if refusing eye contact.

"Where do you need to go?"

[crabtasticsentinel]

...Why do you type like that? It's weird.

[wisecracked]

Kenzi caught the plate and sat back, getting ready to finish off the rest of Kankri's meal. At least until she saw him coming.

[crabtasticsentinel]

Fish. [She pulls her scarf down to show the gill slits on the side of her neck.]

[cinnabarred]

[Cess looks over in the direction of the noise, her arms are still stretched out with the ball in hand. After a moment she retracts her arms and smiles.]

Thanks. How long have you been watching?

[n99neescapes]

-A miracle of miracles!-

I see. Thank y9u f9r y9ur input in this discussi9n. It's quite a seri9us endev9ur that they are d9ing and 9ne that can and m9st likely will negatively effect us all, and thusly sh9uld and must 6e the f9refr9nt 9f 9ur attenti9n. The cis-humans (very important, as calling them human d9es have the effect 9f dehumanizing mutants and meta's, as if they are less 9f a pers9n) d9 have a right t9 feel safe, 6ut n9t at the disc9mf9rt 9f every9ne else.

N9t t9 menti9n the impact this might have 9n metahumans. M9st cis-humans w9uld n9t 6e a6le t9 tell the difference right away due to the wide sc9pe 9f p9ssi6le mutati9ns and it c9uld lead t9 unf9runate triggering t9 9nes that d9 n9t want t9 6e lumped in with us. Why a wh9le new schism c9uld appear 9f Meta's vs. Mutants vs. Cis-humans. Which w9uld m9st likely end in pr96lematic and futile 6l99dshed, and take away fr9m the m9re imp9rtant issues and s9cietal pr96lems at hand.

6ut that is an unf9rtunate digressi9n, which I d9 ap9ligize f9r. Pe9ple in g9vernment l99king 9ut f9r all parties intrestes, w9uld indeed 6e the 6est way t9 ensure a 6etter law.

Re: intranet

[n99neescapes]

A very sensi6le p9siti9n. If n9t 9ne that enf9rces and c9ntiunal perpetuate the 9ng9ing pr9blems at hand. A unified fr9nt by th9se affected, as sh9wn by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Malc9lm X (Th9ugh his vi9lent ways sh9uld never be a plan, unless it's a literal last res9rt. A shame that Dr. King alm9st g9t swayed int9 his way 9f thinking, when he heard the man speak,) and 9f c9urse Mahatma Gandhi, usually yield m9re effective results.

No need, This guy is one too.

[n99neescapes]

S9rry. I sh9uld 9f kept my intelligence privileges in check. I'll be sure t9 l9wer the sylla6le c9unt, in any further disc9urses with you, Fai. D9 you require a friend t9 hug and keep you calm? We can c9ntinue this disscusi9ns later 9n, when you are feeling 6etter.
