Clary gave a smile and a nod. "Def. I totally at least owe you lunch." She said as she took up a nacho, and when Heather asked if the new guy was at least cute she gave a nod. "I mean, for a guy. He was totally cute, plus he seems really nice. But I mean, I did only talk to him for like a minute." she said with a small laugh before listening to Heather. She pulled out the notebook that Heather needed to borrow while she listened. "Oh ouch. Sorry babe." When she said the name Cain, Clary thought for a moment. She'd heard the name before. That had to be the one that Cole had been talking about last night. "Oh! Cole knows him. He's an ice drake, I think she said. She knows him because of Drake. I could always find out more if you wanted me to." she said with a wink and when Heather brought up making time to hang out this year she smiled widely and nodded very quickly. "Totally do! We need to have girls' nights with all of us. Those are always fun! Especially when we all get to drinking." she giggled, taking the chip and offering Heather some of her nachos. "Oh! And we could totally invite more girls to join in. Ez is back, and Erin will be back, and when you put them with Maggie they're a total riot. And Randa should be game. It's always fun to have us all together. And plus then, the more girls nights we have, the easier it will be to plan on more hanging out!" she bounced a little in her seat before she phased through the bottom and giggled as she caught herself with the edge of the table. "Looks like you're not the only one with chair issues today." she laughed. -- Alex was grateful for what Jo was trying to do, but there were some things she would just have to learn along the way with him. He gave her a gentle nod as she spoke. And then after she said what Devin had said to her, he could only feel himself get more mad. When she explained what she did, he nodded and smiled. "That really is useful. Thank you." he said to her. He smiled a little more when she told him about the paper and he gave a nod. "That's great! I'm glad that you did." he said. It had been a while since he had taken the formal class, but the teachers that taught it had been sending students to him for tutoring ever since. He couldn't take all the credit from them though, he had been on earth and in human society for so long that he was forced to learn how to coexist with humans early one. He was one of the better integrated ones. He looked at her work and asked her what she was looking for before chuckling a bit. "Sorry... This just made me think of the first person I tutored for the class. She had issues all around with the class." He looked at where she was looking after a second and he started reading over it. "It doesn't help that they have all this worded funny. You may need to look on the next page for it." -- Miles was very glad to have finally found someone to help him who didn't seem rushed. This place was huge and he hadn't had a lot of time to look over the map he had received. He followed her directions and when he got to the door she was talking about he gave a knock before poking his head in and looking around. His eyes caught a dark haired woman with pretty eyes and he smiled. "Hi, I'm sorry to barge in Professor. The Arch Mage told me I should come and talk to you while you had a free period and..." he trailed off when he finally got a better look at the woman before him. She looked [i]young[/i]. Sure, witches were known for appearing much younger than they were, like most, but she just had a young feel to her even. His eyes wandered around the room for a moment and he was astonished at the amount of books and stuff. He looked through his things that the Arch Mage had given him, looking for the page that he was told to show her when the thought came to him. -- Aren sighed a bit as he headed out of his office after the new arrival stopped in and left to put his bags in his dorm. Then after dealing with Alex Sanders, he had Billie start reading through a few things he needed her to know for their lesson today before he went off to find Kane. He was getting tired of all of the new arrivals changing the schedules. At least Harlow had let him know that come the weekend his nephew would be coming, but all he would need was a dorm assignment. And then he had gotten word of another new arrival coming next week too. He was just glad that the angel girl had called last night to let him know she would be here after classes ended for the day. And then the Scottsons were due back today. Today was going to be the end of him. However, it seemed there was a bit of luck on his side when Samantha stopped him in the hall. She apologized to him and he waved his hand a bit. "No worries, Samantha. I understand, and perhaps I should have told you sooner, but you know how it gets." he said. "Just like today. One of the new arrivals got here a little earlier than expected and I had to send him to your office to meet with you. I was just on my way to let you know because he said he wanted to drop a few things off at his dorm first. So I thought I had a few minutes. Sorry that this keeps stacking up." He sighed a bit. "The girl will be here this evening, but she said she could always meet with you whenever is best for you. She knows she's coming early and doesn't want to disrupt you if she can avoid it. Then I just got word of another new one coming next week as well. And Julian's nephew will be coming in this weekend, but at least him we won't have to worry too much about." he said, shaking his head and rubbing a hand over his face. "And I am also sorry about all the changes going on, but these tests became necessary far quicker than anticipated." Aren looked at his watch. "I have to run, I'll try to come by later and talk more." he said, waving her off.
