a voice that sounds like it's speaking through water comes from the slime.
"Hello. Why are you following me?"
Vakkler recoils. "You--" He sputters for a moment before regaining his composure. "Sorry. I...thought you were something else."
"I think it's kinda obvious what i am. I'm a puddle of slime, aren't i? Simple enough."
"Hey Sorun." Hew calls out while waving.
"Hey Sorun." Hew calls out while waving.
Hey everyone " sorun calls out
What's chess "?
"Chess is a game where you move pieces to other spaces. Except we have people instead of pieces. And you knock out the other pieces from the other side. The horsies move in L shapes. The big castle people move in straight lines. The pointy people move in dea- dia- digagnal lines. The king person can move to any square next to him, one at a time.
The people out in the front can only move forward and only one at a time and they can only knock out the people in digagnal lines to them. The queen can move in any way the other pieces can 'cept the horsies. If you land in the same square as a person from the other side, you knock them out, cept for the front people. You win when you make it so the other person's king can't move without getting knocked out. You can't just knock him out."
Sara does her best to give a basic synopsis.
"I think I understand why you like it up here so much Bradley." Rena tries to match the pidgeons' cooing, and is actually remarkably adept at it.Rena spreads some seed around one area and then leaves, to allow the more shy pigeons to eat as well.
"Did Anahita fetch these birds for you, Bradley? We talked about working together, but I was... well, I was scary then."
"Yeah. Ana helped me a lot. She got permission from the Headmaster for this place, went and asked a bunch of pigeons in town to come live here, helped build it."
He looked confused. "How could you ever be scary, Rena?"
"Chess is like a miniature war"
"Thank you, Ignace-chan." Midori says gratefully. "I..."
"I know a little of how you feel Ignace-chan, but my metal ability has never hurt anyone. But I know what it is like to not be in control. Blackscales-sensei will be there, ne? She can help you to control it, ne?" Midori says encouragingly. If Ignace is watching Midori, her cat-like pupils seem remarkably large during the conversation - usually a sign of adrenaline or similar excitement. Midori's heart was beating fast - Ignace had forgiven her, and was talking to her. Lang-kun was right... she was very pretty.
"Yes, that's true. Maybe I'm being overly cautious," Ignace said thoughtfully.
"Chess is like a miniature war"
"Oh..."
Sara seems to be seriously reconsidering what she previously thought about chess.
After a bit. Lang is really curious as to how things are going.
the door isn't hot, Midori is still talking and not screaming that she is burning up or anthing silly like that
Lang knocks on the door. trying to let Ignace and Midori know he is there.
Hello? Ignace, can I come in? is it safe?
Lang glances behind him to make sure nobody else is there
"Oh! Er...it is safe, but, Lang....you shouldn't come in to the girls bathroom unless it's an emergency."
Jiminy teleported onto the shuttle with Melody and Arthur, a beautiful blonde woman with an unpleasant expression that said that she was rarely if ever happy about anything in tow.
"Alright, we can take off now," he said, glaring at the passenger he'd brought aboard.
"Chess is like a miniature war""Oh..."
Sara seems to be seriously reconsidering what she previously thought about chess.
"oh yeah" grim says tactlessly "it's why mom taught it to me, she said it helps to teach strategy, cunning and ruthlessness"
when he wakes up, the first thing Pyry does is ice his door over from the inside. Then he sat back on his bed and started going through the chest again. He had a lot to unpack, honestly.
He finishes his food, stopping for a moment as a thought enters his head, smirking to himself his form shifts to that of a human wearing a blue robe, his skin fair as blue hair takes the place of feathers on his head, two small braids on either side framing his face and drawing attention to bright blue eyes.
"That's better" the voice that comes out is deep, calm, and full of life as he turns to Marcell and asks "How do I look?"
"Oh, wow, you look nice. Much less nerve wracking."

"Alright, we can take off now," he said, glaring at the passenger he'd brought aboard.
"sure thing" he grins flipping several switches before grabbing the intercom mike and announcing "this is your co-pilot speeking, we appologize for any delays, we are starting the takeoff sequence, sit back, strap in and enjoy your flight"
Hmmmm..... it sounds like Qushect....

"Oh, wow, you look nice. Much less nerve wracking."
He smiles, waiting for Carl to finish eating "Thank you for the compliment Marcell. This is what I looked like before becoming what I am now"
Sara was snapped out of her thoughts by Sorun.
"What's a Kushickt?"
"Hunh. Now that i think about it, i can't really Remember what i looked like very well. Ah well, doesn't matter."
"Oh! Er...it is safe, but, Lang....you shouldn't come in to the girls bathroom unless it's an emergency."After a bit. Lang is really curious as to how things are going.

Lang knocks on the door. trying to let Ignace and Midori know he is there.
Hello? Ignace, can I come in? is it safe?
Lang glances behind him to make sure nobody else is there
Lang pauses a moment But it is an emergency. I miss your smile, and its my fault. I wanted to make you smile again.
lang takes a cautious step in, but is still by the door.

Jiminy teleported onto the shuttle with Melody and Arthur, a beautiful blonde woman with an unpleasant expression that said that she was rarely if ever happy about anything in tow.
"Alright, we can take off now," he said, glaring at the passenger he'd brought aboard.
Mel looks to Arthur then to Jiminy.
she take a look to her new passenger.
Hello. I'm Melody Waverider. I would first like to apologize for the accommodations Jiminy and i worked very hard to make you as comfortable as possible. You must really be someone very special to him. I mean all the effort he goes through just for you.
Mel turns back to the controls. taking off
Carl..This is Mel. VIP guest is aboard. heading down. see you on the ground.
and we are off. Mel takes off and starts her final decent for the morning.
Once in flight. do you like music? if so do have any favorite kind?
Mel is trying her best to make her guest as comfortable as possible.
He nods slowly "Well, this is who you are, for the moment at least"
lang takes a cautious step in, but is still by the door.
"Yeah, and i don't mind a bit... Aside from how hot wearing clothes on top of fur is, not to mention itchy."
"Mr.Promethium is taking lunch in the school currently. I am remaining here to escort you when you arrive."
Hermes' voice comes on over the intercom.
The whine of a drill can be heard in the background.
"Yeah, and i don't mind a bit... Aside from how hot wearing clothes on top of fur is, not to mention itchy."
He laughs, shaking his head "You'll get used to that, for now, just bear with it"
lang takes a cautious step in, but is still by the door.
"Good on ya Hermes, turn on your radar beacon so we can get a secondar confirmation on our landing coordinates... What are you drilling, is that the punch card thing?"
"Thank you, Sir." He pauses for a moment. "The beacon is now active and transmitting. I boosted the output last night and it should seem stronger than previous at your distance.
I am currently making improvements on the data pad that Mr.Promethium obtained for me. Yours is also here.I am also writing a program to become an interface for later improvements to The Hammershaft. The drilling is an exoskeleton being applied to the outside to make it both shielded from extreme temperatures, electricity, shock, water damage, and most radiations as well as improve battery duration and integrate efficient solar paneling to the background.
I need to remove and adapt the case, as it is producing too much excess power for the pad."
"Yeah, and i don't mind a bit... Aside from how hot wearing clothes on top of fur is, not to mention itchy."He laughs, shaking his head "You'll get used to that, for now, just bear with it"
she laughs with you.
"From what i can tell, i doubt I'll have time to. Namely because at the end of this day, if the trend keeps, I'll be changing again."
"But into what? That's the fun part"
"We'll life's all about change as the coin said"
Carl chuckles
"Sorry old dwarf joke, hobbies, mining and making coins mine, o and poker, I likes a game now an then"
Coming into view from the east two flying creatures come into view.
as they get closer to the school region it is apparent two giant owls each saddled and bearing a single rider robed in sky temple robes.
unless stopped they proceed toward the school gardens
"I'm not sure what it is, but i would have panicked if i was anything like i used to be. Thinking back, it seems my personalty is a little mutable depending on my form too. Yet, i think I'm going to have fun with this, even if it does cause me a few problems."
Reaching into his pouch, Lyere pulls out a gold coin "That's the way, not all changes have to be bad" he turns to Carl "heads or tails Carl?"
"I'm not sure what it is, but i would have panicked if i was anything like i used to be. Thinking back, it seems my personalty is a little mutable depending on my form too. Yet, i think I'm going to have fun with this, even if it does cause me a few problems."
"Unstable, ya should see me when I lose me temper, but I feel sorry for ya, not having a true you, could be its just hid, that rune thing may be doing it, but if ya happy with it then nee problem"
Dave's bed is already empty and made, skeets is resting on a crystalline pedestal
Reaching into his pouch, Lyere pulls out a gold coin "That's the way, not all changes have to be bad" he turns to Carl "heads or tails Carl?"
"I always have heads no point showing the world ya arr-ss"
When the alarm sounds lang steps back out alright...alright... I'm sorry.
he holds the door open so he can still talk
Ignace please, can we talk? I really am sorry for making this so hard. but you see, when it comes to you I get all wacky. I say dumb things, I do dumb things. Please i really want to talk without yelling through a door.
"Alright" he flips the coin in the air.
he catches the coin, uncovering it after a second has passed "Tails, looks like I go first in poker Carl"
Sara was snapped out of her thoughts by Sorun.
"What's a Kushickt?"
its a strategy game where you protect your reef with sharks and anemones and all sorts of creatures....
You set up with 20 defense and your opponents have 40 offence
The defensive pieces are stronger but not as mobile and there are less....
Reviarti, Tural and Lim-Môr are in the cafeteria.
Now that lunch is being served, after making his annoyance that he missed getting waffles know, he settles for a BLT and chips.
"So what are you guys interested in? Hobbies, music, that kinda stuff."
He asks with a couple chips in his mouth.
"I make constructs, study... And make explosions... Lots and lots of explosions."
"I don't... Have any hobbies. I'm just kinda here... Maybe i should try and find one."
~It won't be Death's Champion....he doesn't have the talent for managing people. We shall see...the longer they go leaderless the easier things are for us.~
The mouse sniffs. ~ Well, it's hardly any of my business. All the same, let me know if you get any ideas. Always nice to have a tendril in things. ~
It turns and bounds away into the foliage.
Tybalt eventually decides to get up and resume being a productive humanoid being.
He removes and tosses his dirty and ragged clothes into a hamper that wasn't there a moment before.
With them out of the way he works a minute or two in the nude to throw together a pale blue tank top and a pair of fairly short black running shorts, not much longer than a pair of daisy dukes. Not much fabric, not much work.
With that done, he taps at where Skeets rests.
"Are you awake? Rocky?"
"I think it's kinda obvious what i am. I'm a puddle of slime, aren't i? Simple enough."
Vakkler scowls. "I can obviously see that. You're hardly unique, you know--I can think of three other ooze-like entities in this school off the top of my head. Mind your manners, student."

"For one, i wasn't rude. For two, I don't care if I'm unique. For three, could you tell me who these other oozes are?"
he forms into a humanoid shape. he is still green, and seems to remain amorphous, And is wearing no clothes. It is built like a male,and has no genitals. he is thin, and drips occasionally. He has a glow of pestilence in his eyes.
