James regretted this entire decision. The second he saw pity, he wanted to cut her off, apologize for the inconvenience, and forget about possible medical files. But no, he wasn’t fast enough. Nemesis came barreling out looking like a B grade horror monster which sent Damien, like any reasonable chid, into tears because what the fuck? If the doctor was busy, he could have just said so rather than barging out here like the science experiment he was. And now Damien was crying and Casper probably would get overwhelmed if how worried he was at just holding their son. This was a terrible idea.

“We’re absolutely not letting you fu- fudge with our son like that. We just wanted to know if you did any check ups or had any information on the children left behind after the attack so we didn’t accidently kill them or something.” James snapped in response to the Doctor’s offer. He turned to Casper who was at least shielding Daniel from seeing anymore of this disaster. “Why don’t you rock him while you walk around a little bit? I’ll deal with the Doctor for now if you want to try and calm him down.” James suggested, pressing a kiss to his boyfriend's cheek.

The Shattering of Aegis

The Snakeburrow Woods

Early morning - Partially Cloudy Skies}

Katya evaluated the newcomers and dismissed whatever concerns she’d harbored again, though she took a little longer as her eyes lingered on the masked Tainted. Her concerns were alleviated apparently because she simply laughed off Ermes’ apology with a wave. “Don’t you worry your little head ‘bout that. Since y’all are all on your way anyways, let Aleka know I’m pickin’ up our order after a few tankards. Can’t wait to see y’all there.” Katya took a few steps towards Soft Haven and paused, turning to address the group. “Oh, and ‘fore I forget, don’t y’all think about wakin’ up poor Jenson, that’s the gate guard just down the road, or he’ll keep ya there for hours ‘til he’s satisfied you ain’t a horse. Don’ go asking questions, I ain’t got any answers but I learned real quick it typically involves lot a poking with the bad end of a spear so if he’s still sleepin’, keep him that way. Good luck!” She gave them a cheery wave and headed towards town, humming to herself.

The Soft Haven Bounty House

_{14th of the Full Autumn Moon, 1698 P.A.
Mid morning - Clear Skies}

The walk to the Bounty House saw the clouds thin away to the horizon, leaving clear blue and warm sunlight. Small game could be heard rustling through the underbrush, birds flitted from tree to tree, and the morning chill gave way as the sun warmed the Snakeburrow Woods. Those with some sense of direction would tell that despite the various twists and curves of the path, they were slowly drifting further east, almost in line with the Soft Haven graveyard by the time they approached their destination.

It was not long until the group could see a lake quieted away in the depths of the Snakeburrow woods. The trail skirted its shores, the foliage and trees denser the closer one got to the lake. Oddly enough, it was still on the lakeside. No creatures buzzed in the woods around it, no birds sang, no foliage rustled, nothing sat at its edge and drank.

However, it may have had something to do with the atrocious snoring coming from the end of the trail. In front of a decorative wrought iron gate, a man slept slumped in his chair, an empty bottle tipped over beside him. His hair had mostly grayed and fallen out, drool smeared across the deep wrinkles in his face, and the stench of alcohol wafted off him. His armor was of good quality, noticeable even beyond the dirt that marred its metal and leather, and a spear was clutched by white knuckles.

While only a gate in name, the wrought iron arch barely reached a few paces left or right before it gave way to the natural density of the foliage. Beyond it, a stone bridge wide enough for two side by side and flanked by lamp posts stretched out a hundred paces to an island in the center of the lake. A tall building sat in the center, composed of mostly stone, that would have been called quaint had it not been three stories tall and equally wide. Strange vines grew up the outside, clearly guided and patterned, as they avoided the large windows that flanked the double doored entrance. A raised porch circled the right side of the building, supported with elegant columns, and more windows peppered the second and third stories all the way around. Smoke curled out of several chimneys that were quietly tucked between sloping roofs and carved eave trim, though the fine details were impossible to discern at this distance.

“I’ll keep you safe from the big bad doctors, don’t worry.” James teased, wrapping his arm around Casper as they made their way into the hospital. James could feel his mood drop a little. It hadn’t been that long ago he was walking through these doors just to look at the faces of his frozen friends. It was reflexive now, the tightening in his chest, the involuntary swallow, the first stutter in his stride as they crossed the threshold, a permanent reminder of how dire the circumstances were barely months early etched into the very walls of these halls.

But now James could clutch Casper a little tighter, soak in the warmth of his boyfriend standing next to him, and remind himself that they’d figured it out, that everyone was out and living their lives, building a better tomorrow for each other. His apprehension wasn’t a warning, it wasn’t ominous, it was just a habit and he forced himself to relax. He steered Casper to the receptionist, hoping the Doctor wasn’t busy. “Good morning. We adopted one of the children orphaned after the attack and we were told that Doctor Nemesis was the one who cared for them during their time in the hospital. Is he busy at the moment? I wanted to see if he did any check ups or had any documentation on them before I have him scheduled for a check up.”

Fire Emblem: The Slumbering Goddess

The moment Clarissa pushed out of the classroom once more, she locked eyes on Lysander and Derec across the courtyard. “Professor Roland, you disingenuous boor! Rarely have I been so tempted to bear the colorful epithets of the sailors of Edmund against a man of your stature and yet your duplicity tempts me so.” Clarissa boomed, uncaring of those around them as the world seemed to disappear, leaving only her and the target of her ire, as she stalked towards Lysander. “In the name of common decency however, I will afford you freedom from such language. I expect you’ll learn from the example.”

Clarissa’s words dropped to a furious snarl as she approached, jabbing her finger directly into Lysandar’s chest. “How dare you abuse trust unconditionally given! How dare you wield your authority to violate our autonomy so blatantly in front of our peers! How dare you turn our Professors into goalers and hold a dagger to our throat in one of the most cowardly ambushes I have seen in my life!” She puntucated her points with sharp jabs to his chest. “Tell me, Professor, did you consider the consequences of your actions when you violated our autonomy? Did you consider our goals when you violated our autonomy? Did you consider the rifts that would form when you violated our autonomy?”

“Don’t bother answering. I don’t care to hear the well rehearsed lies of the delusionally self righteous.” Clarissa scoffed, dismissing whatever pathetic excuse the man may muster. “I am not naive enough to believe you unaware of our specific Crests if you know enough to stack your hand full of them and as such I am hard pressed to find any benign or ingenious intention that would lead you to believe your decision to handle sensitive matters with such callous methods ethically acceptable. I have goals and aspirations that, shy of the Goddess herself descending from heavens and issuing a divine edict against me, I am fully determined to complete and I do not need her servants sabotaging me on holy grounds!”

“And furthermore, I have not had the luxury of ignoring my Crest. Since I was barely to your knee, I was made full aware of the implications and the burden of mine. Every step I’ve taken, every breath I’ve drawn, and every decision I’ve made since has been in restitution for the sins of my forefathers and in service to the expectations placed on me because of it and you have the nerve to lock me in a room, expose me to the future’s most influential individuals, and then expect me to lean on a power tainted by failure and treachery? I cannot begin to fathom the depths of depravity through which you trudged to reach this inane conclusion.” She laughed mirthlessly.

“I foolishly believed myself safe here, above the petty politics of the world and the black mark on my family name. I suppose I should thank you for enlightening me.” Clarissa spat out and turned away from Professor Roland, her piece said and the edge of her temper dulled for a moment, to address Derec. “Join me for an afternoon ride with the Deer. A little distance and discretion will give you some opportunity to collect your thoughts and prepare for the tribulations ahead.”

Strixhave: The Lament

Guys, I'm so sorry, I complete forgot to add in one of the most important sections: The School itself. I've added a hider with 10 pages of school information (some not so shamlessly stolen from D&D) so please take a second to read it!

Here is the the RP OOC!

To answer your questions real quick Cao, other races are fine! I didn't make a hard list for them so we can be flexible in what we can do. It is modern and wands do have to be wands while I've put in some guidelines for familiars.
