[center][h3]Seidoujima Island - Starbucks[/h3][/center] [@Lonewolf685][@Kafka Komedy] [hr] As the two high class individuals struggled with their order, the line behind them was beginning to fill. With the pressure mounting, Rodrick feared he may have to make an order regardless of whether or not it was what he wanted. It wasn't until someone cut in and asked if they needed help. A young man in the silver uniform of Silver Gate Academy, he and the girl beside him, Helena, took a brief moment to register who this person was. A student of the school they were here to attend. He took yet another brief pause to remember to use Japanese, [color=7ea7d8]"A-ah yes, that would be most appreciated. I fear I... Don't quite understand these terms. I simply want a coffee, but I had no idea they came in... Categories"[/color], he explained. Helena piped up too, also in Japanese. [color=2e3192]"Yes, I'm having the same. Coffee is not a common beverage from where we are, so we would like to try it"[/color]. It appears their problem was thankfully, rather simple.

He did thank Mason at least, with a simple, [color=aba000]"thank you..."[/color], a bit broken and struggling to say it properly, but he said it nonetheless. After he finished eating he left... And then came back after some minutes. Was he bored? He clearly had nothing on his plate. Mason feared he may be dealing with a troublemaker, a very unusual kind that didn't seem to be doing anything wrong, just lingering... But soon he returned when there were very few people. He seemed frustrated, before he went into speaking English, Arcanis dialect. [color=aba000]"Augh goddamnit, I should've studied, I can barely speak your tongue. But I can smell it on you, a demon right? You're a demon aren't you?"[/color], the outburst was unexpected to be sure, but given what Mason was... Was he wrong? Or was he simply trying to insult him. He appeared to be waiting for an answer, but the look in his eyes told Mason that he already made up his mind. [center][h3]Silver Gate Academy Library[/h3][/center] [@Celsius] [hr] [color=f7941d]"H-huh?! I'm 15! I stopped growing around 13 but I assure you I am 15!"[/color], he blushed in a combination of embarrassment and indignation. He has a bit of a complex around his height and general growth. As he calmed down, taking deep breaths, he turned back to Yasu, who had introduced herself. [color=f7941d]"R-right, I'm Elliot Harvingford, I'll be studying at this school starting this month... Although I believe the coming week is a holiday, so I guess starting next week"[/color], he answered, slowly taking her hand and shaking it. After that was concluded, he turned back to his books for a brief moment to calm himself down. [color=f7941d]"Anyways... I decided to start studying here in Earth, because I learned about Earth-styled magic, such as onmyouji that originates here in Japan, or the occultism of the United States from practitioners such as Aleister Crowley. The techniques found here are both similar and entirely different to that which is found in Arcanis, and I think there is a lot I can learn here"[/color], he began. [color=f7941d]"So Yasu, why did you begin studying here?"[/color] [center][h3]Seidoujima Island - Market District[/h3][/center] [@I-Am-X] [hr] The young raven-haired lady listened intently. Asta was in a sense of the word, quite carefree? Or appeared to be. She seemed easy to speak to, with such a soft expression. As she listened to Ultana finish, she gave her response, [color=6ecff6]"Oh, I am not so concerned with palate, afterall this is a new land, where I am free to try new things. Please, do share with me what it is you like, perhaps I will like it too"[/color], a graceful response as one would expect looking at her. Right down to her poise and gesture she had great discipline in the way she handled herself. [color=6ecff6]"I also came out here to do some shopping as well, not just to eat. You see my house normally is stocked by maids, but I learned quickly I had to go and retrieve food myself. I hear there is a delightful and convenient alternative called 'instant meals' here. I heard it from one of the other students"[/color], in layman's terms, she wanted to ask about instant food. [color=6ecff6]"Oh, but we can see to that after we share stories over a meal, please, lead the way"[/color].
