Legends of Zelda... and Everyone Else

Ravio was completely silent as he received his verbal punishment, waiting for the moment when they would start hurting him. Surprisingly, that moment never came, though they did rebuff his claim that what he did was necessary. Then there was the death threat that left him thoroughly shaken. Maybe definitely eavesdropping was a bad idea. As he sat in a slight shock over what had happened, he realized his boomerang was gone. He was remarkably surprised at the civility of Lady Midna outside of her conversation with Miss Fairy, and the brutal bluntness of Miss Fairy in both situations. Lady Midna was obviously trying to save face, while Miss Fairy had nothing to hide. Then there was the issue of that Zant fellow, who was quite obviously stated to be the possible starter of a genocide. Maybe he had gained a lot out of this. Ravio quickly returned to his room and, after taking inventory to make sure none of his other items were pilfered, slept. A few hours later, Ravio was awake and formulating a plan. Hmm, how could he get to Mr. Hero to give him all this valuable information? He could simply walk up to him, and just tell him. You always had to get the obvious solution out of the way first. He could also try sending a letter. No, that could get intercepted, and besides letters took time. Zant or Lady Midna could have made many attempts at his life before than. He could easily disguise himself. He was wearing robes, and no one had seen his face yet. He could sell the hero something, and slip in a note regarding Zant and Lady Midna. About thirty minutes later, Ravio was in much different clothing. His garish purple robes were now stuffed into the bottom of his bag, replaced by a simple beige pants and yellow shirt combination, with a small hat, and a slightly shoddily made Keaton mask pushed to the side of his face. He wished he could get one of better quality, but the best mask merchant in town had disappeared, so he had to settle for one of a worse quality. Due to the wardrobe change, he barely caught Mr. Hero as he left the town. Watching the group of adventurers intently, he wondered what item Mr. Hero would want. He also wondered if Mr. Hero even had enough money to make a purchase. "Ah, I'm sure it'll work out." Ravio mumbled to himself as he made his way a little closer to the gate, hoping not to be heard before he masked his voice.

Indigo sat surprisingly quietly through all of the conversation, simply nodding along and eating. This was kind of out of character for him, but people were making points, be they good or bad, and he wanted to hear them. Even though Ineko sounded wise, someone, Safire maybe? Had shout him down pretty quickly. Oddly enough though, Ivan immediately jumped to his defense. It made sense technically; Ineko probably wasn't one to defend himself, and Sappy or whatever her name was had insulted him thoroughly in her rebuttal. But it was Ivan doing the defending, which didn't make much sense. Then some dude slammed himself into the table like an idiot, almost coating Indi in a layer of noodles and sauce. He had played this game before though, and he was quick on the barrier draw. As he stared at his now wasted lunch, a slow rage started building as he stared up at the person who launched himself at their table. The person explained that there was food over at team Swansong's table, oddly absent of their leader. Indi's mood switched. Meat? Yes, so much yes. He heard out what the others had to say before leaving though. Sappy insulted someone yet again, and Ineko left. "Well since everyone who's not an asshole left the table, I might as well remove a dick from the situation." He said as he got up and walked over to Gren and Abel. "Hey Gren! Hey... other guy? Abel? Was it Abel? It was Abel, right?" Indi asked as he sat down next to Gren. He decided to kill two birds with one stone. "Hey, sorry about your hand dude. I know it's gonna be a little harder to entertain yourself for a bit. Hehe." He joked. How Gren responded to that icebreaker would be a good indicator of if it was used against him.

So what specifically will we be doing in Survival and Practice?

@Guess Who

Surviving and practicing, I assume. Nah, but in all seriousness if I remember right "Practice" is shorthand for "Target Practice." As for Survival, well, I think it's basic skills for surviving in the wilderness.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Ivan probably deserves it, he's a bit of a prick.

@TentacleLord

I kind of agree. Good character building. On another note....I can't decide between Practice or PE!!

@Psyrencalling

Flip a coin. 'S what I always do when I can't decide.

Jumping through the multi-verse

Matt smiled as his new friend cemented his spot as the deadpan snarker as well as, well, a friend. "I got you back." He said, and Matt believed it. With new found strength, he stared at the battalion of pokemon facing him. They were getting smarter and breaking off into groups of three. Crafty little buggers. "Okay, here's the plan; we need to gather up every person willing to kill these little hellions, and break them off into three groups. Fight fire with fire, as they say." Matt said to Jymni. At that point, Tylar ran past them screaming about an eldritch abomination. "Okay, that's not good. Go get him, and find my knife, will you?" He commanded, before running off, and trying to dodge all the damn pokemon closing in on him. It was harder with that slash through his chest, but he managed to get to some lady fighting a ma-somethin' or other. "Hey, lady! After you take out that pokemon, I need some help! There are way more near the lake, and you seem pretty capable!" He shouted at her, hoping some others would hear as well, and band with him.

As Indi continued to slurp down spaghetti and water, he was astounded at Ivan's description of history. "Not so good at the history, though. Listening to the recounting of dead people doing dead things isn't really my cup o' tea." He said, and Indi just couldn't comprehend. History was conflict! War, and generals, and Grimm, and politics, it was all just a bunch of people fighting. That was so cool! How Ivan could not see it was dumb. But, whatever, some people had opinions, and he had to accept that sometimes he was the only guy with good taste. "I was holding back, obviously. Doesn't make for a good show if I display all my tricks on the first day." Ivan explained. So many Johns, dude. What was the point of a damn fight if you didn't give it your all? Ivan was probably just talking big. Merlin was a caster too, he wasn't some massive hulk like Gren with a semblance that was, essentially cheating. Indi had an excuse to tie, even if he could have fought better. Ivan didn't. Ivan then had the guts to insult his opponent even after it was proven they were equals. Indi shook his head in annoyance; This guy was kind of an asshole. Ineko then greeted them (what the hell is with all these I names?) with a simple acknowledgement of their names. While doing that fries sandwich thing that made the sandwich taste much better, Ineko said something that was an odd mix of pessimistic and optimistic. "First day of class gents, and we're not dead yet. I'd say so far it's going pretty good." He commented, in between bites of his Chicken-Fry sandwich. "Pity I never got to see either you or the foxy lady's fights. We may know each other's names, but we haven't been formally introduced." Ivan spoke, sparking up conversation. That reminded him, he needed to ask Ineko something. After shaking Ivan's hand and responding with his own introduction. "Indigo Kafka, working to be the best fighter. Ever." Indi turned to Ineko while chugging some water. "Speaking of fights, why'd you throw yours? I mean, might as well try, right?" He asked, a hint of disappointment in his voice. "I mean, I would have won if I had a little less aura, Ivan would have won if he wasn't 'holding back'." Indi said, adding emphasis on 'holding back' as to accentuate that he didn't really believe Ivan. "And Seibs won! Your whole team is pretty decent, at least. I'm sure you would've put up a great fight." He lied. He wasn't sure Ineko would have done so great against Jayden due to his suit's bulk. Still he should have at least tried. "By the way, can you remind me to whoop that douche Rakim's ass?" He added afterwards, remembering his friend's fight.

So for the fights that didn't get finished, did the class end before that, or did they still happen, and we're just skipping over them? If the latter, I need to know the result of the Seibler/Rakim fight before posting.

@Kafka Komedy

Seilber won, Goodwitch hospitalized Rakim after he got angry at his lost and tried to set off a gargantuan explosion.

@Lugubrious

Thanks.

Indi sighed to himself as he entered the lunch line. His mind was racing with issues, and his headache wasn't helping. It had at least dropped down to a dull drone of pain so he could focus better. Still, it wasn't that way in math, and he'd spent the entire period staring at a paper doing nothing except cursing himself for wasting all that effort on a damn null game. He was sure if he wasn't on the brink of a brain hemorrhage he'd understand the concepts, but the battle before that class had destroyed him mentally. Then there was the Gren issue. Well, he hadn't been expelled yet, so that was a good sign. Maybe the staff here realized he was a great fighter and, you know, things just got a little out of hand sometimes? Or maybe word simply hadn't gotten to them yet, and Gren was going to level this toward him as a sort of blackmail? As if it wasn't like he already had enough to deal with just to get into this damn school... Indi shook his head and breathed deeply to refocus. Lunch, that's what he was here for. He quickly grabbed some spaghetti, as a sort of joke, and some water. He rarely drunk much other than water, just the occasional glass/carton of milk. Soda's were much to carbonated and sugary, and they made him want to vomit. Fruit juice didn't really grab his attention either; drinks were supposed to wash down a meal, so why have a taste to the drink? Anyways, after grabbing and paying for his food, he stared idly around the cafeteria. Seibs hadn't seated herself yet, and neither had Ineko (they were probably still in the line grabbing food), he decided to take a seat by his new teammate, Ivan. As he placed down his tray next to his obviously very hungry acquaintance, he struck up a conversation. "So, did you get any of the stuff in math class? My mind was just absolutely fried." He said in between slurps of the noodles. They were decent, but the sauce was kinda watery and bland. 6/10. "Oh, and ain't it weird that both of our matches ended in a tie? Our team must be the average-st of the above average or something." He said, waiting for the rest of the team to join them.
