Hearing her name being called, Karin turned her head to face her Meister partner, curiosity written on her face. Dante seemed like a good partner, as she had only been wielded by him a few times before, and she didn't know much about him. She knew that she would learn more about her partner in time, and had no worry about losing sync with her partner. 

She nodded with a small smile as he approached her. "Hai. Yes, I'm excited bout getting back into the swing of things. It's been far too long since the last time I fought or used my weapon form, and I'm eager to get training from such an odd teacher." She spoke with her typical Japanese accent. At home, she always used her native language, as her mother was slightly paranoid of Karin losing her roots to American soil, or something similar to that. 

She always liked the odd and crazy teachers over the normal ones. They always had more things to teach and in more ways, offering multiple possibilities of battle styles. Going by the book could help at times, but fighting was something that was learned through feeling, not reading. At least, to her it was.

Alistar watched the class with focus, silently picking out all of the weapon and meister pairs that he wanted to spar against, with him being the meister in the battle. All of the others that he had little interest for could go to his brother. Some of them had actually been listening to the teacher and his assistant, both of which he found fairly interesting. and the rest of the students were of their own devices, thinking about other things than school-related things. 

He was too focused on the students to get up and move along with them, and was snapped out of his thoughts by his brother's words. The weapon looked at his brother and nodded with a similar, but more wild smirk. "Yes, and hopefully we can befriend a few of these pairs." He spoke as he got up and walked as well, following behind his brother.
