[@Agent 47]

Several thoughts rushed through Kobalt's head as he waited for the airship to reach its destination. First, he considered the possibility of his brothers and sisters being students at Beacon Academy - it was more likely than not, considering the Zaffre family's origins in Vale. Kobalt knew he'd the answer soon enough, though.

However, Kobalt's mind quickly wandered to somewhere else. If he was going to be a student of Beacon, then he was going to be sorted into a team with three other students, just like him. All Kobalt could do was hope they were going to be good teammates, though - as he was going to be paired with them for quite a while. An unskilled person could prove themselves to be a liability, a possibility Kobalt wasn't quite fond of. [i]'[color=2e3192]Too soon to make a judgement, I guess. Should probably just wait and see... and anyways, everyone here's accomplished in some way... probably.[/color]'[/i]

It was then that Kobalt felt that something was amiss, jolting him out of his thoughts. He noticed something that had previously went unseen. What Kobalt noticed... was that someone else had seemingly appeared out of thin air, next to him. This person's sudden appearance gave Kobalt quite the surprise. "Huh?!" He gasped for a second, before quickly covering his mouth. "Damn... don't know how I missed you there. You're one hell of a sneaky one, you know that?" Kobalt spoke to the person, placing a hand onto his cap as he angled it ever so slightly downwards into its original place - where it felt just right.

It was a bit of a pleasant, yet unexpected surprise for Kobalt to have someone approach him, especially in such a boring time. The person was a lady with both blue eyes and hair - Kobalt assumed her hair was dyed, like his. She seemed to have an aqua motif, causing Kobalt to dub her 'Aqua' in his head. Such a name made perfect sense to Kobalt for reasons that would strike most as obvious. However, he didn't know her real name - so 'Aqua' just have to do for now. The woman had also spoken to Kobalt, too - greeting him, and addressing how he wasn't particularly chatty. '[i][color=2e3192]... She figured it out pretty damn quick[/color][/i],' Kobalt thought. '[color=2e3192][color=2e3192]That isn't surprising, though... guess it's about as subtle as a brick to the jaw.[/color][/color]'

[color=2e3192]"Yeah... I guess you could say I'm not much of a mingler."[/color] Kobalt answered with a glance over at the blue-haired lady. [color=2e3192]"Never really been one. Gotta say... sounds like I'm missin' out, though. Maybe I'll give this 'mingling' stuff a shot. Maybe."[/color]
