Lucy simply giggled softly at Ray's behavoir. If she had to sum it up in one word, she'd have called him adorably cute. And then he had to go and ruin it. She smiled softly as she picked up her Purrloin. The small cat meowed contemplatively but it was quickly silenced when she cradled it in her arms, petting it gently.

"Your no fun, you know that?" She replied, though she seemed more amused than disappointed as she walked towards the direction she assumed the exit was. "But fine, I shall restrain myself for now, even if you are adorable~" Here she was offering herself up on a silver platter for some fun times, and here he was being oh so rude and rejecting it. Well, that was fine. It was fun simply seeing his reaction anyways. For now, she needed to go about getting registered as a trainer, her ID, pokedex...that sort of thing. Though really, she didn't care about such a device at all. She wasn't really here to become some pokemon collector. Well, unless those pokemon were classy, cute, and carried a hint of elegance to them. "However, I do expect a date later, so make sure you keep that promise of yours~"

Thankfully, it didn't take her long to get to the pokemon lab and its exit. The registering process didn't take that long, once they reached the appropriate place. Pokedex, ID, and whatever she needed were easily obtained. Really, such boorish nerdy things weren't exactly her forte, and she could have easily done without them. She already had done her own research into the pokemon she wanted. Her first one? She wanted to get her mitts on a Goomy. They were just adorable, after all. That meant getting to route seven and the untamed wilds. She'd of course, gather some other pokemon along the way to help in her journey, but she wasn't exactly one to collect a lot of them.

"Well, now that that boring affair is over with..." She turned to Ray. "We are traveling together aren't we? 'Twould be a shame to travel alone...though maybe if you buy me dinner first I could overlook you leaving a lady to travel alone. After all, who knows what sorts of dangers one could face out there?~"

Lynnette listened with rapt attention to Alex. At least, she seemed to listen. Would be rude not too, after all, wouldn't it? Besides, she might miss some juicy information she could use against him. Well, that and listening to him go on and on was simply amusing. Her, inconsiderate? Please, she was just honest. She was a terrible person, and she knew it...and she loved it. She didn't let anyone get in her way, and those who did she simply made sure they knew better than to mess with her. And running? Her? How utterly laughable. And He was bringing that up? That dingy little thing she hadn't used since she was what, thirteen?

Oh her dear little Alex.

How much of an unrepentant idiotic imbecile could he possibly be?

The ghostly pale girl simply giggled, her voice indicating no small amount of disdain and disapproval for everything he had said. Unfortunately, it seemed as though fate would not give her time to reply as she would have liked, however. Such a thing was fine, fate was a fickle thing after all and not something that was to really be fought against in the end. Instead, a boy being chased by a group of rather vicious poliwag was heading right for them.

...and it seemed as though Alex wanted to play the hero.

Disgustingly typical.

"How boring...playing the hero as usual, Alex." She sighed, obviously bored. "Let's see just how well you do when someone actively hinders you, hmm?~" Without another word, for one, she conveniently stuck her foot out and tripped the kid as he ran passed them. Khata had plans of her own, it seemed as well. The Yamask suddenly appeared behind the other ghost type, making a terrifying face by glaring at it, and its shadowy arms extended towards the ball of gas, almost as if it was going to grab it and drag the other pokemon towards an untimely demise. It was a surprise Astonish attack, and while it may not have been too damaging it should have at least stunned gastly before it was able to use a hypnosis.

She of course, was conveniently sitting to the side, far enough away from the poliwag to not garner their attention at the moment.

I'll get up some replies tomorrow~

Pokémon: Nexus

@Rune_Alchemist
Do you think you could have Lucy push 'em along to the exit?

@LokiLeo789

Yeah, I can. I'll be posting tomorrow morning probably.

St. Sappho Academy, Medieval Magic Academy (Invite Only)

I did a thingy.

@RabidAnubis

yay, thingies.

now.

Just how badly will this date of theirs go?~

Pokémon: Nexus

Right, so

I dunno if I'm the only one here or not that doesn't like this money thing, as its kinda complicated and I'm not entirely sure I can accurately ever keep up with how much money my trainers have. Mostly because its a pain to update everything every time they gain money or spend something.

Eh...I guess I'll get over it, but I can't guarantee the amounts will ever be 100% accurate.

that said. Lucy's probably got some decent amount of cash with her.

...Lynn stole everything she could from her parents, so yeah, there's that xD

Anyways, suppose I'll see if I can get to work on a post.

Pokémon: Nexus

Don't care about a larger group at all, really. Lucy'll definitely not mind xD

St. Sappho Academy, Medieval Magic Academy (Invite Only)

This assumes Maoin knows Swen. XD

@RabidAnubis

Oh? I thought they had met or something? something about Maoin discussing that the whole affair would be slightly problematic.

St. Sappho Academy, Medieval Magic Academy (Invite Only)

I'll be at work for the next 5 hours so...

They looked for the class that Gwynn is in I guess. Luna petting her every now and then when she feels bad. Or whatever XD I dunno

@Pyromania99

And this is when Maoin sees Gwynn and Swen together in class, and assumes they are getting along well xD

St. Sappho Academy, Medieval Magic Academy (Invite Only)

Heeey, I did a thing!~

So, all teachers should be at this little meeting now...students can do whatever they want since it's after school~

~Livia Fiore, Lyssa, and Myrilla Sathanus~
~Semester 1, Day 1~

"You've had a pleasant day, I hope?" The female dressed rather elaborately across from her asked with a friendly smile. Despite the friendly and casual tone, even Livia couldn't help but to feel a little intimidated by her. Not that she was going to go around saying such a thing though. She wasn't one to easily give into such things as intimidation.

"It has gone as well as one might expect." Livia replied with a sigh, setting down a teacup and leaning back in her chair. "The first day of any semester has its fair share of problems, especially with the new students. Some running off and...causing problems for the locals." Livia glanced around her well decorated office. A plush carpet covered the wooden floor, several high quality chairs dotted the room and bookshelves lined the wall. A fireplace to warm the room stood against one of the walls, and

"Oh, I understand." The pink haired woman said, a small smile forming on her lips. "Paperwork, making sure everything is in order...we have similar work, after all. The only difference is that I'm one of the heads of an entire race of people. Oh sure, there are seven of us but running an entire civilization by ourselves especially considering the state we're in after those accursed holy wars is no easy feat." She was speaking of the Crusades that have taken place over the past few centuries. Livia was quite well aware of the happenings of that time, even if she wasn't anywhere near old enough to take place in them herself. If you looked hard enough though, you could find people to tell you stories...and the dead were surprisingly talkative if you knew how to speak to them.

"We lost so many people. Filling in their shoes and the power void left behind has left us in no small amount of disarray and yet," Her crimson eyes narrowed at Livia, their vertical, snake like irises would have likely made any other human run in absolute terror. "I still have time to make sure my precious little daughter is behaving herself." Livia simply sighed at this. She had already received word about what happened at the pastry shop earlier.

"Of course, I would expect no less from Lady Sathanus." She narrowed her own eyes at the demon in front of her. "However, maybe if you didn't spoil your child, she wouldn't be causing so many problems to begin with. After all, if she just waltzes around and does whatever she wants...its more of a reflection of the parents rather than the child. Besides, she never even came to classes before then. I can't very well watch her if she doesn't even introduce herself."

"Oho...those are some good excuses for a creature that can barely be called a human at this point." The demon harshly replied.

"Resorting to petty insults? How very appropriate for the demon Sathanus. Can't even come up with a proper argument."

"One doesn't need to argue when they're right, do they? There's no point in trying to convince stubborn, saggy old hags that they're wrong. It would be better to put them out of their ignorant misery."

The tension the two were creating in the room was thick enough that there was an oppressive aura of aggression coming from the room. Of course, it was simply the usual routine for these two. They hadn't quite come to blows yet, but considering both of their dispositions, if things continued like this they likely would end up eventually fighting one of these days.

"Uhm..h-hello?~" Suddenly the tension was cut off by a pink haired girl, Lyssa poking her head into the room. "I was told to-mom!?" The young girl was obviously a bit surprised to see her mother their, apparently not expecting to see her for some time. "Ehe, w-what are you doing here?" She continued, sounding more than a little nervous. This was going to take awhile, wasn't it? And she even had a date with Lukas! Ugh, she was going to feel terrible if this took so long and it looked like she ditched him. That was just bad manners and not fun! She'd miss all the sweets!

"Ah...my little Lyssa. I simply came to see how your first day went. Any problems? These humans haven't given you any trouble I hope?" Any hostility in her voice immediately left when Lyssa entered the room.

"U-uhm. Well...I uhm, got rather intimate with some sweets and made a pretty cute friend, but um, other than that nope!~" Myrilla sighed, though said nothing. Her daughters habit of twisting the truth to try and get out of punishment or something was a bit of a bad habit.

"At any rate, you fill her in on what we're doing." Livia sighed, glad that little farce was over with. She stood from her chair, giving the demon a dismissive wave. "I shall tell the staff what our goal here is. Both of you shall be present, and I do hope you intend to introduce yourselves."

"Of course, Livia...that is why we're here after all, and I would hate to cause more work for you~" Livia simply shook her head, and walked through a door that lead from her office to the meeting room. Lyssa had no idea what had just happened, and simply looked at her mom, then to Livia, then back to her mom again with a quizzical look.

---

Upon entering the meeting room, Livia quickly regained her composure, walking over to a podium where she would address the gathered teachers.

"As always, thank you for coming this evening." Livia began with a smile. "I will try to keep this meeting short, but there are some...developments this year that will require the utmost attention from everyone present." She went on to list a few of the usual things. The schools budget, which was as ever, unusually high for a school of even their standing. Many had to always question where the extra money came from, and there were many rumors regarding it but there were never any answers regarding the subject. After that, came an overview of any major events this semester. Festivals, school held events such as magic shows, art galleries things of the scholarly interest such as those. A few mention of some troublesome creatures causing trouble across Europe, that would need students or teachers dispatched to take care of them.

For the most part, it was business as usual until they reached the end of their agenda.

"Before I move on...I would simply say that if anyone here is highly religious and have anything against demons, you might as well resign now."

That was certain to get their attention.

~Gwynn Foghlú~

The rest of the class passed rather uneventfully for Gwynn. She made sure to at least try and behave herself in class, but that didn't mean she had to entirely pay attention. She wasn't exactly one for the academic arts. Reading, maths, things like those. She really could have cared less about them. The only one she was even mildly interested in, was history, and for once she was even motivated to take some rather detailed notes herself when that subject came up. For the most part though, she simply ended up doodling or fiddling discreetly with her ice magic.

When the afternoon break came, she made sure to meet up with the kid she was sitting next to so she could give him proper advice on how to woo the ladies.

1. Confidence! People, liked confidence. Confidence in anything was key. She made sure to demonstrate such confidence on a passing girl herself. She quickly got rejected and slapped, but that was fine! It led to point two.
2. Accept rejection! Not all people are going to be so easily wooed, so he shouldn't trouble himself over a rejection.
3. Persistence! Now, as long as he didn't get creepy about it, and the target of his didn't give him a straight up no, then he should flirt a little and pursue them.
4. Flirt! Be a little roguishly mischievous. People liked impish behavoir as long as it wasn't anything straight up bad stuff. Make them laugh, be humorous but not overbearing.

And that was about it really. Well, that's what she did to flirt with pretty much everyone. Would it work for him? Well, she was curious, but unfortunately since she promised Maoin she would give this 'Swen' guy a chance, she couldn't exactly see how her new best friends date went. Instead, she was propped up on the bed in her and Maoin's dorm, spinning a diamond shaped piece of ice on her finger as she idly waited for time to leave for this date that she was pretty sure was going to end up being terrible.

Ugh, she really wanted to just skip out and go do her usual vigilante work and kick someones butt. But nope, she was stuck here.
