Hello!

[It doesn't matter who you are, teacher or student—while you're at lunch, suddenly, a large young man with a thick Eastern European accent (Russian, for those who have an ear for such things) suddenly plops his tray down on the table next to yours. He smiles broadly.]

It is nice to meet you! I am Ivan Olegovich Braginsky. I am a new student here.

[As if it isn't obvious.]

[It's not too infrequent for students to be called in to see the school's legal advisor. For this school, there are endless legal issues to consider. Students get in trouble, or their families do, or there are custody issues... And that's not including the teachers, who sometimes present the most serious problems.

The headaches never end, really, but Yuri seldom loses his composure. He offers a slight smile as his next "client" steps into his office.
]

Ah, thank you. I imagine you have some idea why I've called you here.

[ooc: Characters can also have appointments with Yuri regarding school matters, as he teaches criminal justice and pre-law courses, in addition to serving as a legal advisor.]

Larsa Ferrinas Solidor | Final Fantasy XII

[Larsa was a little unsure of this new place. He had never factored in being sent away to a school like this, not including the mutant aspect of it. The bulk of his education until now had been via highly thought-of tutors who taught him with the sole view of being a leading figure in the Empire.

Now, all that could be in jeopardy, even the seat of House Solidor could be in jeopardy if it became public that he was a mutant. All in all, despite his new and unlooked-for current situation, he was concerned for his friends back in Rabanastre and hoped that Vaan could keep his light fingers away from any more Archadians lest he and Penelo end up in trouble.

Trying to focus instead on his own situation, he finished unpacking and headed out in to the corridor to try to familiarise himself with his new surroundings.

[ The entertainment industry of Japan is quite far removed from that of America, but sometimes news do travel between circles. A certain idol briefly made waves when he was ousted as a mutant and was forced to retire - and ardent followers of the J-pop scene might know of rumours that he had traveled out of the country.

If anyone ventures out onto the school grounds on a certain sunny day, they would find a youth singing on a secluded corner of the lawn. It's evident that he is a very good singer, with perfect pitch, rhythm, and an overall velvety tone. He doesn't seem to be carrying anything other than the headphones over his ears - no speakers, and yet there is instrumental accompaniment to his music.

You might have recognized his appearance, or just want to talk - as the last note fades into the clear air, he removes his earphones and hangs them around his neck. It might be appropriate to approach him now. ]

Professional ethics suck sometimes. I'm just going to say that now.

For those who don't know me, I'm Carlyn Caimbeulach, I work at the library, please spell my name correctly, and I've just gotten back from a very large number of very complex jobs. Please do not ask. Just. Don't.

... Anyone of appropriate age want to go get ice cream or something this evening? I could use something resembling a sane social life for once.

I was wondering if there's a crafts club.

[The speaker is a young girl, her brown hair in braids. She looks to be about twelve or so.]

I like sewing, knitting, embroidery... oh, and felting!

[She holds up a little felted corgi.]

Or, if there isn't a club, would anyone be interested in starting one? I'd really like to talk about project ideas and swap patterns and, well, just talk shop.

Art Room

[Anger issues were always fun to deal with. At least, back when you were actually able to act upon them. Now that she's been brought to the Institute, Shandra's been finding it very hard to curve her violent tendencies. Three fights in the last month alone wasn't exactly a shining beckon of goodness on her record. However, most attempts to try and help her ended in failure...except for hobbies. Physical ones like baseball, track, boxing, and even...sculpting.

There was just something about hitting a big piece of stone with a hammer and chisel that made her feel relaxed. Except for right now, judging by the broken chisels lying around at her feet.]


Worthless pieces of junk! How am I supposed to work when they keep breaking in my hand? It's not even like I hit them that hard!

[The door to the room is open, allowing everyone in a...surprisingly large distance to hear her fit. Everyone else in the room high-tailed it out of there the second she arrived, but will you investigate just what's going on? Surely Shandra can't possibly be as bad as the rumors would suggest.]

[You may have noticed the girl walking into the classroom before, having been delivering the bread to the school Cafeteria for a good while. I mean it's hard not to notice the bakery truck with the flying pig for a logo.

You also might have noticed her during the attack, exploding in blue flame after having been caught during the attack with a stray blast, causing her mutant power to activate for the first time.

She's sheepishly standing in front of the classroom to introduce herself.]


Um, hi. I'm Alicia. I'm a baker at Alicia's Bakery. It's good to meet you all.

[the camera turns on and is clearly in the schools kitchen. Alicia with her hair in a single ponytail tied back with her usual red bandana as she kneads dough and starts forming it into what the ingredients to the side tell you are about to become delicious, fluffy cinnamon rolls.

She looks at the camera with a kind smile on her face.]


I've been noticing since I got here, there is no food program. I was wondering if anyone was interested in forming some sort of baking club for after class. To make treats and things for everyone?

[she looks back down and starts rolling out the dough across the counter]

[She still didn't know why she needed to be here. She'd been getting by at skill, and any discipline and training she needed she was getting already. Perks of having a loving father in an army family. And yet, abruptly, she had been arranged and set up here. To, in his words, "keep her safe".

Yeah, the massive attack the school had just suffered really gives it a safe vibe.

She kept to herself mostly. Classes, touring the campus, acclimating. She did that all by her lonesome. But there was one thing she couldn't shake. One thing that she missed being able to do.

And she saw no reason not to do it here.

Which was why, at the break of dawn, Jacqui was up and out on a three mile run around the school grounds to get the day started. She might not be home anymore, and dad might not be there to take the lead, but she knew the drills well enough. And it was a chance to get some things off her chest.

Which would explain the intense look on her face and the angry chant under her breath that was probably a little "too" vivid.]
