"True form? Like a big dragon? Please tell me you're red, like on the flag of Cadwaladr! I mean, the flag of Wales." Rhiannon blurted. Every Welsh man and woman had a soft spot for dragons due to it featuring on their national flag and Rhiannon was no different. At Flint's suggestion she looked around and saw that no one, including those she presumed were older than them and had been here for longer, were in no rush to head to class.
"Well it looks like attendance will be pretty low so we could skip and relax for a bit? Although it might be interesting to see what kind of classes we're going to have here..." She knew she had not really given an answer but she did not mind; she was happy either way as long as it was entertaining for her.

"Oh I guess you can do that, what with your wings and all. Is it safe for you to fly carrying a person though? Surely it's hard?" Rhiannon finished her food, neatly tidying her cutlery and polishing off the last of her black coffee. She now felt considerably revived and the pain in her chest had already relinquished. As an Ellyll she recovered from illnesses quickly but not wounds, normally her race were immune to any kind of ailment or birth defect but as she was part human she could still suffer an ailment even if there were no lasting effects.
"I just bumped into old friend. He told me he was coming here but I didn't expect to see him so soon. He usually keeps to himself really, hiding from others. Also I heard we don't have to attend the classes if we don't want to, they're more optional than anything else. I guess that means if we have stuff we want to work on alone we can do that, huh?"

Rhiannon nearly bumped into another girl (Hunter) as she exited the washroom.
"Ah, sorry! You okay? Are you new here? A few of us have kind of banded together for breakfast if you want to join us. You can spot us by... well I guess my hair is probably the best landmark. Tara!" She gracefully slid out of the room and into dining area again. She spotted the rest of their group sitting at a table and approached as Flint called out to her.
"Diolch (thanks). Yeah, I just needed to splash some water on my face. Early start and all that." She said as she slipped into the group next to Flint and took a seat. "Ah, I should probably go get some food first, though." She skidded back out and skipped over to the cafeteria bench and peered at the various foods on offer before taking an English Breakfast, including the Black Pudding, and then returned to the group and started to tuck in, catching up on lost time eating.
"Not bad. I'm definitely going to be enjoying these breakfasts." She commented halfway through her meal, pausing to take a sip from a mug of black coffee. "What were you talking about before I came back then? Anything momentous?"

Aye! I'm good at providing synopses if people need catch-ups. I'm usually on here via PC or my phone most every waking hour (UK time - 16 hours a day) so I'm pretty available! (I can use my phone at work, hence why!)
Got the old team back together! Glad to have you back RR.
"So you're kind of... our age relative to how long we can live, then?" Rhiannon asked, curious. Then a familiar feeling welled up in her chest and she looked around them. "I'll be right back, you guys go on ahead. Just need to freshen up a little."
She skipped over to the ladies' room she had spotted and slipped inside before rushing, less gracefully, towards a sink and coughing blood into it. She groaned at the pain in her chest as she washed her mouth out, spitting it out into the sink before taking a tiny, refillable, tube of mouthwash from a pocket in her skirt and rinsing her mouth out.
"You should probably stop singing so much." The male voice would have made her jump but she was used to his random appearances, although she hadn't seen him for a few days now. Luckily there was no one else in the room. She looked up into the mirror and saw him leaning casually against one of the cubicle's dividers. Blond, her height and with a lean body, he had been her friend for many years now but still she knew so little about him.
"We both know that's not why it happens, Julius." She retorted as she patted her lips dry with a paper towel. The boy shrugged, acknowledging the point without a fight before he pushed himself off the divider and walked over to her, hands in his pockets.
"True, but it doesn't help your weak body to put strain on it by appearing more energetic and healthy than you really are." He prodded her chest for emphasis, highlighting the particular weakness she suffered from in her lungs.
"I'm an Ellyll, our bodies repair themselves. We don't suffer from the same illnesses as humans." They had had this argument several times but she always came out losing; always to the same point which she could never defy.
"Yes, but your mother was human. Your body repairs the damage but still receives the damage from human illnesses; you go through the pain but heal quickly. Is it worth pushing yourself just because you know it will heal?"
Before Rhiannon could reply another girl walked in, this one with massive angelic wings, looking around curiously.
"Were you talking to someone?" She asked as she headed to the sinks, preening her wings in the mirror. Julius had disappeared the moment the door had moved, without a trace. Rhiannon laughed nervously and shook her head as she walked out to rejoin the others.
"No, no. Just talking to myself, that's all. First day here and all that."

Poor Rhiannon! She's gone and lost her new best friend already T_T
I think it's slowed down a bit but it was going pretty quick the first two days....
Anyways, sad to see you go. It was fun!
At this stage I should mention that Julius will only reveal himself to Rhiannon and leaves no trace behind, not even scent. Nor will he ever appear when someone could see him nor will he speak when someone can hear him speak.

Did I just ninja post two people? Score!
Also apologies.
Also apologies.
"I suppose, without the side effects at least!" Rhiannon joined in, laughing at the accuracy.
Well, side effects for them at least.
There was something in what Alex said that confused Rhiannon but it took her a few moments to figure out as she went back over his words in her mind.
"'When knights were commonplace.' That makes you... old, doesn't it?" She instantly regretted asking, assuming it to be personal (and that there might be some dark stories Alex would not want to share) and danced her way towards the doorway. "Well let's stop dallying here. I'm starving!" She launched into the Men of Harlech, a Welsh ballad used for marching during the rise of the British Empire. It was a stirring tune which enticed everyone to follow her and on towards breakfast, their feet feeling lighter as if they wanted to travel.

More for Rhiannon to choose from! She's kind of an accidental flirt, I'm noticing.
