Question: should I write up my next post with the speech or is there still a post or two before that?
Post is away
I look forward to reading the monster post

“So I am to give a speech about the overview of the school year to everyone?” Adam asked more for his own thoughts then for clarification. He would have never believed that he would be asked to do such a thing, believing his reputation would cause worry about what he might say. That meant the head master was not as opposed to how Adam learned then he originally thought. With a shrug he spoke “I’ll have to think up the speech on the way but it shant be any real issue”
The thoughts of public speaking pulled old memories to the surface, back when Adam was younger and much more criminally inclined, conning people was one of his best resources to get money. He was always more skilled and reading and convincing people then he had been at lifting goods from them. He found it rather humorous that a skill from his past life would come in handy now. It got him to thinkinking on what other mundane skills would be useful for a Magestrava to have. Ruefully he realized that answers he had been seeking earlier were dropping in to his lap left and right all because he had slipped in his control.
Brushing away thought of his past he fixed his gaze on the Headmaster “I know the entrance ceremony is due to start soon so I shall follow your leave” After that proclamation he returned to staring out the window, no longer see the landscapes however, now he was forming his speech. It was a novel experience for him he had never been tasked with vocalizing to the school at large; he couldn’t help but wonder what some of his class mates would think when they saw him at the podium. At the same time he realized that he couldn’t just say what he thought about the whole experience, not without upsetting a fair amount of people. Absently he wondered if politicians ever had similar thoughts.

It took less than a second for Adam to truly decide if he would take the Headmasters offer or not, he was going to, but it still took a few moments for him to answer. This was because he couldn’t clearly recall what the opening rites entailed as he was normally reading during them. “I’m willing to help; I just would just need to know what it is you need me to do. I’ve spent the last few rites brushing up on my reading so I’m not sure if it has changed since the first one.” He spoke up finally as he fully turned to face the other man.
As he conversed with the Headmaster Adam was running calculations in his head. He knew better than most that healing magic was not all powerful, not if you lacked intimidate knowledge of someone’s body, even than there were something’s that it would just not be able to fix completely due to the ever changing nature of the human body. Thus he was figuring out which of his injuries he would have to pay closest attention to after he was healed as to not agitate a still healing injury. Karma inflicted injuries tended to heal the cleanest; Xi was a mixed bag and Sakra injuries tended to last long after healing even if treated in the traditional sense. So he was likely to be dealing with chronic migraines for weeks if not months as well either sense of touch or smell would remain dulled for some time as well.
None of those prospects really bothered Adam; he had dealt similar consequences before, and likely would again knowing him. He was getting better at estimating what he could get away with magically as well as how long it would take for him to heal. In fact was it not for his inattention earlier he wouldn’t have had to come to the hall today. And if you asked him what he gained out of the ordeal was much more then what he lost. A plethora of remembered avenues that he could take his studies as well as a rather fascinating new discovery with his magical senses, If anything he would have backlashed worse if he knew what would have happened if only to see what else would come of it.

Adam was quiet as he looked out the windows of the Hall of Healers; some might think he was admiring the scenery as he was seen sketching landscapes from time to time as he healed up. That wasn't too far off either; he was admiring the way everything looked when he was fully extending his magical senses. It was a serene and surreal image, as he watched magic flow throughout everything he could see. It reminded him of the dream that set him down this path. Offhandedly he noted that everything seemed to ebb and flow at the same tempo of his migraine, later he would experiment but for now he was content to just watch the world spin for a moment.
Since he was just passively watching both with his eyes and his senses, Adam was aware of the headmaster a fair bit before he knocked on the door. He was tempted to look upon the head master and see what he looked like with this new found sight, but thought better ‘if Aoife had been blinding, the head would be damaging’ slowly he retracted his magical senses, fascinated with how the energies would blur out of sight as he did. Taking one last moment to savior the images he had seen, he collected himself and turned to look at the door as the headmaster walked in.
"Ah, Adam, what a coincidence, I was just on the way here to visit dear Miateae, but as it happened I've also been searching for you"
“Greetings Headmaster, what can I help you with?” Adam asked doing his best to keep his rasp quiet. Internally Adam was, uncertain; He never knew where he stood with the Headmaster, having never really talked with the aged gentleman despite knowing his reputation as the most knowledgeable person in the academy. Adam always felt like he was walking on ice around him, but could never place as to why. It was an instinctual feeling, one that he had learned to trust while living as a street rat. Regardless he was quite interested as to why the Head master had searched him out.

I've got a post up, smaller then I wanted, but life is not letting me relax very much at the moment so it's the best i could due with my time constraints. I'm still here hopefully life will slow back down soon
Internally Adam sighed, if the healer had just used magic to help he could have been on his way already, but it seemed that he had gotten one of those that felt that natural healing was the best treatment. He could understand the logic of it; no one would learn to be careful not to injure themselves if all it ever took was a wave of the hand to make it all better. Never the less he was annoyed there were things he would much rather be doing at the moment, mostly studying, but he was stuck here for the foreseeable future it seemed.
Behind him he heard the doors to the hall once again open up, turning partially, he was greeted with the sight of another Magistrava that he had dealings with a few times, Rin if he remembered correctly, not that he truly cared at the moment. With a shrug he returned his gaze to outside.
“So, um, how’s the weather?”
Alas it was not for long as Adam once again turned his attention to Miateae a questioning look on his face. “Seems well enough to me” he replied as he once again turned to look out the window, not caring about the silence, it had never bothered him.

guess this means I should start working on a post unless hanged wants to have the head master show up instead
Works for me, He will just try his best to weasel something out of being forced coerced in to giving the speech
Okay, finally have had enough free time to read up on all the ooc that I have missed.
Glad to see you have joined us Impy.
I'm up for jumping to the opening ceremony, not sure if I stated that already or not, And Adam isn't quite incapacitated. He just is a little on the crispy side with a short fuse, there is no way that would impede him standing in front of a large crowd of people that he doesn't like to say things he likely doesn't believe in. :p
In truth though Adam still could be the one to give the speech, his wounds aren't so extensive that he would have to say longer then a few minuets I would think, but I'm not sure if he would want to with out proper incentive
