Vare seems to be searching for something. He's looking around as he walks, seeming to mutter to himself as he does so. Picture of.. instability, with his scruffy hair, the muttering and the (still, despite Tybs' efforts) loud robes. Couple of screws loose maybe, though Tryko'Sam probably remembers he seemed to be perfectly coherent when he spoke.
Just this:
Ryo:::Headmaster Ryo, this is Phaezeriel. I apologize if I am disturbing you. Do you have a few minutes to meet with myself, Ehos, and Jaiye? There is a situation that has significance to Avalon, as well as to Ehos' family. Perhaps you could also ask Ehos' mother if she has time to at least listen telepathically?::

Picture of.. instability, with his scruffy hair, the muttering and the (still, despite Tybs' efforts) loud robes. Couple of screws loose maybe, though Tryko'Sam probably remembers he seemed to be perfectly coherent when he spoke.
"Excuse me sir?" Walking up a bit closer, glancing at the other two with him, Tryko'Sam peered back towards Vare to get his attention.
"Professor, any chance we can talk to you about the kids at that alleyway, last night? And other stuff..." He shrugs and smiles, waiting to hear if Ephebe or Vai have something to ask as well.
"Or if you needed help, there's that too."
Dom listened to the twins play. He wanted to know what kind of music they played out of curiousity. After he made his way to Tami 's side. "Hello there ladies. I'm sorry but I need to see your invitations. If you don't have any I will have charge this lovely lady a dance and kiss as a cover charge." He grinned mischevously about his little joke as he took her hand and kissed it.
Quickly he changed his tone as he acknowledged the others. "The there Rae thought you got detention. And who is your lovely friend." He reaches out to take Taron's hand to kiss.
"Taron Sunwake, the one who got her out." 'She' says politely, smiling as Dom kisses the back of 'her' hand. "But it usually get's shortened to Tare."
::That sounds fun, but I think something smaller might be better. Big parties never seem to end well here. Maybe we could do something in a sim room and whitelist people we want to come. That way the less savory people don't come ruin everything again.::
He stows his yarn work and pokes around the office. If there's a desk he immediately checks traps and then looks through the drawers.
"So its like a dress? I've never had a dress before. Thank you!"
She wraps Midori into a hug as they keep walking.

::fair enough, what does whitelist mean?::
He examines the room looking for magical auras, illusions and things our of place.
"Well, Fieri can admit we're better anytime she wants."
"I'm pretty sure she'd go play in snow first," Raelle said, laughing before getting pulled out to the dance floor.
"I am Kitty Tanaka," she responded with an answering bow. "And this is Haruka, one of my animal companions. Are you enjoying your time here at Avalon so far, Repparyn-san?" she asked politely."Yoroshiku onegai shimasu, Tanaka-senpai." Repparyn says formally, his manners utterly perfect. "I apologize for borrowing the manners of your homeland, I hope it put you at your ease."
The bleach-white gnome smiles at her question and nods. "Very much so, even though I have not attended classes yet, I am enjoying meeting people. There are so many strange and wonderous people, I am truly in awe of what the school has accomplished here."
"It was very thoughtful of you, Repparyn-san, and I truly appreciate your efforts...I've been here so long sometimes I forget my manners myself," she said cheerfully. "It really is an amazing place. If I am not being too nosy, what are you here to study? I came here to learn how to stop being invisible and ended up discovering a talent for working with animals."
"Apparently all the ones on your route are crazy." Ardiente puffed briefly, taking a long, deep breath though the nose. "Who would have thought a firebird would try to learn cold magic. Crazy. You're alright Fieri?" he says as they take a few moments to recuperate from the latest adventure.
"Yeah, I'm okay....lucky for us she was so bloody bad at it. And I think it hurt her more than us. Yeah...who would have thought all the ones living in warm climates are the mentally unstable ones," she sighed. "Well, I don't know about you, but I could use some charcoal before heading out after the next crazy. Breakfast was a long time ago."
"So its like a dress? I've never had a dress before. Thank you!"
She wraps Midori into a hug as they keep walking.
"Hai! I'm not finished it yet though, so don't thank me yet. We'll have to see if I can actually do it first. I only just started learning from Ignace-chan after all." Midori says modestly as the two girls gradually find their way into the library.
"Excuse me sir?" Walking up a bit closer, glancing at the other two with him, Tryko'Sam peered back towards Vare to get his attention.
"Professor, any chance we can talk to you about the kids at that alleyway, last night? And other stuff..." He shrugs and smiles, waiting to hear if Ephebe or Vai have something to ask as well.
"Or if you needed help, there's that too."
Vare stops and turns at the sound of the voice and looks over the three people who had approached him. Again, the strange, never-quite-fixed gaze is present, his brown eyes seeming to examine the folks who had interrupted him. His robes seem to almost be moving on his own, as if something was repeatedly poking him in the side as he talks. "Um... yes of course. What can I do to help you?"
He shakes his head at the offer of help. "No, that won't be necessary I think. Just searching for someone."
After a few more moments of the poking in his side, Vare turns his head to the side and says with just a slight bit of exasperation: "Yes yes, alright. Give me a second."
With that said, he makes several arcane motions and Rena materializes beside him.
Stands watch, rifle at the ready.
The shape of a long, feathered, blue-white serpent with feathered wings intrudes onto this Plane and instantly nuzzles Tryko'Sam, obviously happy to see him. "Hello!" she says brightly, her smile displaying those sharp teeth.
"It was very thoughtful of you, Repparyn-san, and I truly appreciate your efforts...I've been here so long sometimes I forget my manners myself," she said cheerfully. "It really is an amazing place. If I am not being too nosy, what are you here to study? I came here to learn how to stop being invisible and ended up discovering a talent for working with animals."
"Invisible? Some sort of permanencied spell I suppose?" he says, obviously curious about Kitty's abilities. "Personally, I have... some mental prowess. I am only beginning to develop it. I've already met Miss Jones and I look forward to working with her. She seems like quite the woman."

"Or if you needed help, there's that too."
"Professor Vare? I'm Ephebe Blackscales. I'm in charge of the elementary school. We haven't met yet. I wasn't able to be at the last staff meeting due to an emergency involving one of my students. It happens.....actually it happens a lot."
"And this is Vai Sunwake. You've already met Tryko'Sam before. And you are...Rena was it?" she asked the serpent creature. "I think that's what Tryko'Sam said your name was."
"Yeah, I'm okay....lucky for us she was so bloody bad at it. And I think it hurt her more than us. Yeah...who would have thought all the ones living in warm climates are the mentally unstable ones," she sighed. "Well, I don't know about you, but I could use some charcoal before heading out after the next crazy. Breakfast was a long time ago."
"Hah, yeah that sounds tasty. I haven't had charcoal in a long time. Master forbade junk food." Ardiente says, cheerful despite their setbacks. At least they were actually doing something to help. Yesterday with Raelle had been wonderful, but he had also felt so.. useless. Helpless. He had to rememdy that.
As they walk along, Ardiente briefly wonders what, if anything, the Avatar discovered on the Sun. "How's your husband doing with the evacuations, Fieri?" Ardiente asks conversationally.
Tryko'Sam did what any sane fellow would do with a flying serpent that just nuzzled him, he gave her a stroke along her torso and a scratch of her forehead or jaw. Like a cat.
>> [i]How does one greet a talking snake person, I wonder? Can't just nuzzle her back, might mean we're kissing or something. Wild.[/b] <<
He stood waiting though, waving hello to Vare briefly.
Dom listened to the twins play. He wanted to know what kind of music they played out of curiousity. After he made his way to Tami 's side. "Hello there ladies. I'm sorry but I need to see your invitations. If you don't have any I will have charge this lovely lady a dance and kiss as a cover charge."

Quickly he changed his tone as he acknowledged the others. "The there Rae thought you got detention. And who is your lovely friend." He reaches out to take Taron's hand to kiss.
Tami laughed. "As if you had to even ask, melnestae...you may have as many dances and kisses as you please," she said with a mischievous smile.
"Taron Sunwake, the one who got her out." 'She' says politely, smiling as Dom kisses the back of 'her' hand. "But it usually get's shortened to Tare."
"Ugh, tell me about it...this family is obsessed with nicknames! And I hate it! Well....I guess I can tolerate being called Elle....not like I have any choice....but then my classmates start calling me Rae...which doesn't even make sense! Rah-elle....how the blazes do you get Rae from that?! And it's not like I have a long name. Two syllables. Is that really so much to ask?....okay, so I'm a little weird about nicknames," she admitted sheepishly.
"Now I have to use 'Rae', you know that right?"
::I picked the term up somewhere. I dont remember. Whitelist means that only people on the list are allowed in and blacklist means that everyone but the people on the list are allowed in.::
He keeps poking around the office looking as if there is no conversation going on.
::hmm should ace be black of white listed:: there is an air of amusement in his mental voice.
"It was very thoughtful of you, Repparyn-san, and I truly appreciate your efforts...I've been here so long sometimes I forget my manners myself," she said cheerfully. "It really is an amazing place. If I am not being too nosy, what are you here to study? I came here to learn how to stop being invisible and ended up discovering a talent for working with animals.""Invisible?

I've already met Miss Jones and I look forward to working with her. She seems like quite the woman."
"Sort of...I become invisible if I attempt to deceive. So I have to be always very honest."
"I have heard of Miss Jones, although I've never taken any of her classes since my abilities don't tend in that direction. She is supposed to be very strict, but her students learn a lot. I am sure you will be able to advance a lot in her class," she said encouraging.
"Yeah, I'm okay....lucky for us she was so bloody bad at it. And I think it hurt her more than us. Yeah...who would have thought all the ones living in warm climates are the mentally unstable ones," she sighed. "Well, I don't know about you, but I could use some charcoal before heading out after the next crazy. Breakfast was a long time ago.""Hah, yeah that sounds tasty.

As they walk along, Ardiente briefly wonders what, if anything, the Avatar discovered on the Sun. "How's your husband doing with the evacuations, Fieri?" Ardiente asks conversationally.
"Don't tell anyone, but the charcoal in the cafeteria is nutritionally enhanced. When I was pregnant I couldn't bear to eat anything but charcoal so they started trying to make it nutritious for me, and then they just kept doing that since it's hard to make sure all the firebird kids get adequate nutrition and eat more than just charcoal. So you don't have to feel bad about eating it unless you want to."
"James says that it's like trying to organize butterflies. His pilots are starting to get pretty frazzled. He's thinking about calling in Mithros although that would leave us without anyone able to take a suit up if anything did show up in our star system."
"Now I have to use 'Rae', you know that right?"
She sighed. "I have a perfectly good name, you know. It's not even long....could you at least go with Ra?....at least that's actually part of my name instead of some weird derivation loosely based on it..."
Dom stands up straight and glances to Tami. Across his face is a mischievous matching Tami's. "I may have to steal you away for a time before your girls night."
After flirting Tami he pulled her close but he turned his attention to Raelle. "If you don't like Rae them I won't call you Rae." Lovingly her looked to Tami embraced in his arms. After letting his love flow through him he looked back to the "two" girls. "If you would excuse me I am going to collect on my dances and kisses."
Taking Tami out on to the dance floor where he does collect.
Taron smiles, holding back a laugh.
"Kamenwati is going to get a kick out this..."
::Heh. You know, even if what happened wasn't his fault he's still kind of an @$$. He makes everything about him and he's so full of himself you can actually smell the conceited on him. So . . . Definitely out.
And its not two lists. It's systems. With blacklist more people are in and can come but with white we get just the people we want. Which means you can either go bigger or safer.::
:: I'm thinking white list, but a big one, sound like a plan?:: he keeps looking
:Let's make it happen. I'll ask Mel if she can help me with the sim allowances. Then I'll set up the inside. You're gonna have to stay out so I can work with it. It'll be a surprise that way.::
"Thank you for thinking about me at least. I hope we can make it right." :)
::a suprise eh? How are you planning a suprise party when I do most of the guest list, oh on that note invite whoever you want, as my best friend you get that,::
::The stuff in of can be a surprise at least. It's a party for you I can't let you do all the work. And if we're gonna do it for your birthday we have to do it right. We do the guest list together and then you go and wander around like tradition until I tell you I'm finished. It'll be great trust me.::
Though there is a small needle trap in the desk, Tybalt handles it easily. Inside, Tyrrin finds a jeweled pair of necklaces* and several pieces of fireproofed paper that detail the entire temple... a close examination reveals something strange: a large section unworked right in the middle of the temple.
:: Fair enough, any ideas yet?::
Dave waves anyone off of touching the necklace or anything else "wait they might be cursed, this is my specialty,"
Jeran stands guard, watching warily as the others search the room. Ghalen seemed to have the door covered so he wandered around the rest of the room in case there were any other entrances they didn't know about yet.
Jiminy gets a call over his radio from a familiar voice.
"Uhh...I dunno what your call sign is boss, but this is Sunbeam. I've got more than enough sim and flight time in today. Do you need any assistance, over?"
Dave grabs one and puts it on after telling Skeets to be prepared to resurrect him.
Eats his latest meal, this time a fawn who couldn't run fast enough. This should last him a couple days, he thinks. Good thing too, as he thinks he's managed to scare all the animals out of this area too. He sighs. Is this his life now? Is this what he has to look forward to? He clears the thoughts of dread and despair that come far too easily, and begins to respectfully clean and skin the small creature, asking it's spirit to strengthen him, as he ritualisticly prepares it for consumption.

"Uhh...I dunno what your call sign is boss, but this is Sunbeam. I've got more than enough sim and flight time in today. Do you need any assistance, over?"
"Copy that, Sunbeam...I need all the shuttle pilots I can get right now. I don't like not having anyone flight ready in case of a crisis, but Io's hoard, it's a mess up here. Get a shuttle out of the hangar and attach a cargo crate and get up here pronto."
"Roger."
"Uhh...can I grab a container with the big boy? I could probably carry two of them..." he asks excitedly...
"Roger."
"Uhh...can I grab a container with the big boy? I could probably carry two of them..." he asks excitedly...
"Negative. Nuh-uh. Absolutely not. These containers are primarily going to be filled with people and I am not taking that kind of chance since they would not be properly secure. Use a shuttle, hot-shot."
"Ooh shiny."
"Onei, you did say this place was totally abandoned, right?"
a mermaid swims through the air, looking out to the nearby woods.
"Such a nice day."
she watches animals run panicked from something, but has no clue what.
"Negative. Nuh-uh. Absolutely not. These containers are primarily going to be filled with people and I am not taking that kind of chance since they would not be properly secure. Use a shuttle, hot-shot.""Roger."
"Uhh...can I grab a container with the big boy? I could probably carry two of them..." he asks excitedly...
"<sigh> Roger that. ETA, 30 minutes..."
"It's supposed to be..."
