[h2][color=421A8C]Sapphire Rode[/color] - Doctor Oobleck's History Class[/h2]
After talking with Ozpin Sapphire felt a little better though more than dissatisfied with the lack of answers and her own lack of participation. Something was going on, something big and the insatiable curiosity that within Sapphire demanded that she figure out exactly what it was. Of course there wasn't a lot she could do at the moment. Ozpin had listened calmly and told her he'd look into any connections between the boy and the Shelter as well as having Pops questioned about Sienna. Sapphire couldn't really ask for more than that though she sincerely wished she had more information about exactly what was going on. If only she'd been allowed to talk to the boy. His mouth was sewn shut but he'd shown the ability to manifest sound in the air, most likely he could speak with his semblance.

Sighing Sapphire set off for History class. He talk with Ozpin had delayed her from the last five minutes of math but her assignment was most done and she couldn't imagine anything else of interest had happened after she'd left. She'd finish up tonight and give it to Professor Fullbuster tomorrow morning. History was what she had to be concerned with now.

Sapphire was a bit late for Oobleck's class as such most of the seats were gone. She was forced to settle for one next to the red haired kid, Robert, if she remembered correctly though names generally weren't a priority for her unless they were mission related. Sapphire pulled out her sketch pad with the half finished schematic for the acrobatic enhancers she was working on, as she continued to sketch she'd glance up every now and again to see what was going on in the class. Generally this was how she got through academic classes, doing her own thing while paying a mild amount of attention to the teacher so that if they sprung a surprise question on her she would be able to answer without looking like a fool.

History itself was not exactly Sapphire's best subject. Math she didn't have a problem with, calculations had been part of her education even before her mother died. Sapphire's mother Melanie had attended Beacon. She and Janus had married a year after graduation. Once Oliver was born Melanie had decided it would be best that she retired from being a Huntress. Not that she became a housewife. Even at Beacon Melanie had been a tinkerer, she'd designed her own weapons and Janus' as well. After leaving the huntsmen she set up her own practice as an engineer. Sapphire remembered fondly the days she'd spend in her mothers workshop. Melanie showing her how various machines worked and as best you could explain to a seven year old the science behind each of them. After her mother's death Janus had hired private tutors so that Sapphire could learn the trade as well as her mother had. Though the girl in blue didn't have quite the same streak of genius she was still good with numbers and her inventions while perhaps not revolutionary were functional.

History on the other hand was a different story. Sapphire enjoyed reading but only specific types of tales. With History it was the same thing. If a period or event interested her she could devour all the information she could find on it and ace anything related to it perfectly. But if it was something she found boring generally she devoted herself to other things in class and performed poorly on projects and tests. While Doctor Oobleck talked about the Faunus Wars and various topics related too it Sapphire all but tooned him out as she concentrated on her design.
