Basil smiled as she walked, trying to listen in without looking as though she was listening. Jace was cute, not really her style but she could totally see him and Anna together and if she wasn't going to do anything with Gunner, why not set her up with Jace. 

She looked at Anna when she said her name and followed her over to the bookshelf. She took the books from her and nodded, taking a seat, "Thanks,"

She opened them and was about to start reading them when Jace made comment. She was kind of happy that he made an excuse for them. She nodded, "It is totally boring... but," She shrugged, "I think my parents would prefer I'm reading up on how to bandage an arm than punch and Strigoi."

She looked back down at the book when Anna excused herself. She knew Jason and took classes with him but they weren't friends. Acquaintances really. Besides, he was there for Anna not Basil, so why not get a head start on her reading. She rested her head on one of her hands and started to read about how to deal with minor burns. If Jason was going to hang around, it was probably best that she keep up with the lie.

Serena looked at him when he started to speak Italian. Well, try to. She laughed a little, "It was.... But I understood you!" she nodded, "You're welcome."

They walked into the Gym and Sebastian made comment to Gunner. She pursed her lips, "You might want to... not the stabbing his own leg part... but," She pointed as the two dummies he had dealt with in class. One of them still had the stake lodged inside of it, "He is good."

She retrieved a second stake, leaving her fake one on her waist. She didn't want to get caught without it. She walked back to Sebastian as he asked how to stand. She looked at him, measuring him. She stuck her foot between his feet and moved them slightly. She nodded, "Like this.... It is the best position for you... but you might not be able to get to it. We will work with different stances... later."

She handed him the stake, her fingers wrapping his around the handle, "You remember what we worked on last time?"

She pointed at their dummy, un-staked, "If you can stake him more than ten times... In three different positions... I will fight you... let you try and stake a moving target that fights back," She smiled at him, "Sound good?"

Gunner glanced at the door when Anna and the others walked in. He looked at the guy with his arm around her shoulder. That was fast. Really fast. She had just kissed him and now she was off walking with a guy with his arm around her. Jealousy flared him in but he didn't look away, even as Anna slipped off to help Basil. He caught a look pass over Jason's face. Annoyance, maybe? What the hell did he have to be annoyed about?! Gunner's blood was boiling as he looked away from the guy and focused back on their surroundings. Seeing but not seeing. 

He looked down at Anna when she approached him, he hadn't noticed that she left the little group over there. He nodded curtly to her, removing his eyes to look back around the room, "I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?"
