I used she as I was in half referring to Yui.
Tai Yang


"If you are uncertain what you are doing, you could head next door to the receptionist's office, or simply ask out loud for help and then turn a corner. I am told we have a ninja janitor who generally tends to hear such requests for help, and then she proceeds to assist by making a sign just out of sight around the next corner and then leaving before you turn said corner. I have not tested that personally, however." Tai Yang was unperturbed by the intrusions, following Yui's lead, and answered Alice.

((ALSO, EPIC FORESHADOWING OF INCOMING BIO. :P))
When you're in a school of supernatural creatures, being uncertain whether someone can walk through doors or not is a valid question.
Huh, I was unaware Alice could walk through closed doors without opening them.

Also, you guys are aware that if all the characters cram themselves into one office, we're just going to take forever to post anything because we're always waiting on someone? I was hoping to be able to get this scene done quickly and concisely. :/

We're all still waiting on Windel for now, but once she posts, the posting order will become much more complicated if more and more people enter.

I'm half tempted to make a main office (because Main Office does not mean Principal's Office) where a Receptionist simply tells Alice to take a number and wait for the other generic students in line to finish having their questions answered. :P
Wooh! All the human squad joining up all of a sudden!

Heh, with all the people likely to be barging in, Tai Yang's poor meditation lesson will likely have some bumps. :)
We shall do our best to accommodate, no? :P

As the only two humans, they will most likely be drawn to each other in friendship. I am interested in seeing how things progress. ^^


Heh, cool. :)

Tia Yang will be friends to any who wish it. He's designed to be an emotionally stable nice guy for others to come to when they need a straight man or a listener for their character.
Awesome! We have human Samurai, human Monk, now we just need human Ninja to complete the East Asian Martial Trilogy!

Sorry it took me so long to post, Windel, I went to bed right when the servers came back, apparently.. :/
Tai Yang


"Uh.. I..." Tai Yang seemed rather off-guard against the question of "Orange or Blueberry".

'Well... I assume the colors match the names.. But.. Who would name a flavor after a color? One has berry in it.. I'll go for that one.'

He hesitantly reached for the blue one. As he took it, he brought it closer to his chest, examining it as if he was a little unsure of how to eat this. He touched the lollipop with his other hand, feeling its hardness. 'Some sort of rock candy then?' His eyes flitted back up to Yui and how she did not seem to be chewing. 'Then.. It is left to dissolve rather than be chewed? I shall investigate further later. This.. Blueberry?'

Dismissing the matter from his mind and simply holding the lollipop, he spoke his mind. He seemed completely at ease with Yui's youth, as he couldn't remember any times he had met an old looking supernatural rather than a forever young looking one, other than the dragon he had only met once.

"I believe my presence was requested because I contain a certain quality many students lack. I believe "battle-trained" was the term used in the memo. I received the impression that you wished to investigate the possibility of using my services as an adjutant, to teach this trait to others." Tai Yang set his hands behind his back once more, keeping the lollipop from touch his Gi.

"There are two ways to achieve this. The first way to learn is quick and efficient, but in my mind stunts the growth of all but the luckiest students. That is to throw them in combat until it becomes ease. The second is to teach them how to control their minds through meditation. It takes time, but I believe the art of meditation granted me my greatest strength in battle. It also has the secondary effect of teaching them how to control their emotions in non-combat. I have seen hardened warriors fall apart at the table of diplomacy, because they were only trained not to fear combat instead of to combat fear."

He brought forth his free hand palm upwards. "If you would like, I could demonstrate my first lesson on meditation."
