[center][h1][color=f26522]Walt Grismer[/color][/h1][/center] Walt watched as the teachers began to talk and introduce themselves, his teacher Mineryna Startoucher, seemed nice, however he saw her hand come out offering a handshake. Walt wasn't keen on physical contact, it was something that bothered him pretty bad, his hand started to thumb Avelines hammer, not cocking her but just fidgeting. [color=00aeef]"It's ok Wally, don't worry, she is a teacher, she is here to help you."[/color] Avelines voice is calming for Walt, a something about it never failed to get through, but, in this case, it wasn't going to help. Walt somewhat took a step back from the teacher and avoided eye contact, [color=f26522]"Aveline is clean, reassembled her this morning after reapplying oil and setting the powder, powder scale is unseemly."[/color] [color=00aeef]"Ouch, it isn't like I can help it."[/color] Walt looked to the gun and his demeanor, previously so guarded, shifted the moment he started to speak to Aveline. [color=f26522]"I didn't mean you are unseemly, that's why we perform maintenance, my lack of care reflects my own habits, if I can't properly maintain, I can't...."[/color] Walt realized he was speaking out loud again and his focus returned to the teacher still holding out a hand, he quickly took the hand and shook it slightly, before letting go and putting it right back to the handle of Aveline. [color=f26522]"Walt Grismer, and Aveline, I...."[/color] But that was probably going to be the most he was getting out at this point. When the other teacher walked by and made a comment about worthiness, all Walt could think about was Burdreau, worth was a topic he had brought up a lot, and worth was something that Walt wasn't going to give anyone, however Miss Startoucher quickly set down the law, she seemed nice, hopefully she didn't mind his neurosis, but then she started to mention making new clothes, and instinctively he looked at his outfit. Walt was wearing his good clothes, granted that was just a white button down and black slacks with suspenders, and of course his holster and pouch, he thought he looked pretty nice, but perhaps a second outfit was in order. For now, Walt merely stepped towards Miss Startoucher and awaited their departure. [@Shamrocknroll] [@FalkiThomas]
