Ingenium Academy: Capitulo Uno

[IHateMakingNames]

Being the last to sign up, Khan was also the last to get food. Normally, he just entered from the back and snuck into the storage room, and fed himelf until discovered, when he ran. But, today Khan was trying to fit in with his new clan. So he entered from the front and followed a few students who were getting seconds into a line.

After a few akward and confusing moments for the lunch staff, Khan came out of the line with a plate full of breakfast meats. One thing Khan prefered about this new clan was that they had an abundance of food. In his last clan, they had to track and kill everything they ate, and had to use every part of it. With this new clan, Khan didn't have to eat the less desirable parts of an animal, and it was always cooked.

Khan's next step to fitting in was to eat like everyone else. To figure out how they did this, Khan walked up to the edge of a table and stood right next to it. He stood their and watched everyone at the table eat, while they ate and wondered what the little boy was doing.

Once Khan got the idea of how to eat in this new clan, he needed a seat. In his old clan, food was distributed twice a day, and the entire clan ate together to bond. With this clan, food was always avaliable, and people ate whenever and where ever they wanted to. So, Khan found the first open seat and sat down. He practiced how to eat in his new clan by stabbing his food with a fork, then eating it.

Piotr watched as Johann just sat back in his seat and let an awkward silence envelope the table. Piotr realized he would need to interject in order for all parties present to save face. He cleared his throat loudly just once before speaking, "I do not know about Zane, but my stature belies my age as well. I am only 13." Piotr looked down at his plate of food as if to show shame for his youth.

That was when a tiny boy wearing various furs sat next to him and began gnawing on the meat he had. Piotr wasn't sure but he thought the boy was growling. "Hello there, whats your name?" Piotr was actually curious to who the boy was.

Elena's difficult to read expression didn't change when Will took his seat near her. "I'm not stopping you." She was nearly finished, anyways. More than a meal, Elena needed to know the layout of the academy to figure out some kind of route that would take her from class to class. The place seemed easy enough to navigate, but it never hurt to familiarize yourself with routine tasks.
And then she was finished. "Take care." Elena said, soundly a little more depressed and fragile than she would have liked, put the tray with the dishes where they belonged, and proceeded to her room.
The uniforms looked pretty good, but...
"They also provide underwear?" Elena asked, picking up a pair of panties. Elena wasn't the type to wear skimpy lingerie, and didn't intend to until she was at least 18, so she was sure if there were any regulations on undergarments, she was definitely within the acceptible zone. "Oh, well."
Elena undressed and donned her academy uniform, underwear and all. It wasn't as comfortable as her traveling clothes, but it'd do in a pinch. She gazed at herself in a mirror. After about twenty seconds, she had her verdict. "I think I'd look cuter if I cut my hair to only reach my shoulders."

"Youth is nothing to be ashamed off, and really it wasn't Johann's fault for assuming. Although if you must know I'm only about a month or so from my 19th birthday. Now you know why I'm a little sensitive about my height."

Suddenly noticing the little kid that had just sat down Zane was a little taken aback. The way he was stabbing his food like he had to kill it still and the low growl were a little unsettling. "Umm, something tells me he probably isn't going to be able to tell us his name. I could be wrong but he looks a bit feral."

Infisil had ran back and checked on his horse in the stables. He realised that, situation given, if he couldn't steal anything then he could always sell his horse and make quite a bit of coin. He comforted the slightly irritated animal, who obviously was not used to either him or travel. He had walked into the mess hall after getting directions from a guard, and after getting his food, which had gotten slightly colder than the hot breakfasts he had at home or at a tavern, a quick bite discerned that it was indeed edible. He looked around for the oddest set of individuals, the ones needing a sort of glue, a defining person whom they could all rely on. He had decided, after a brief look around, that a group with a small savage standing next to the table, one of the nobles from earlier, a short and tall boy, a rather nice looking young lady and a black haired boy would be the easiest. He moved over to the table with his eggs and bacon and sat next to the tall boy on one side of the table. He kept his eyes half-open, glancing around the table.

"This will be interesting. It seems folks of all types come here." He said quietly, but not so quiet as to not be heard. His slightly irritating tone was almost not present, but anyone who listened carefully would catch a condescending lilt to his voice. He cut an egg with the side of his fork and ate it quietly.

"Name" was one of the few words Khan had learned when captured by the merchants. When they had captured him, they tried to learn his name, and in the process taught that word. Khan could also tell the large boy was asking a question, based on his tone. He also recognized "hello" as a greeting, since everyone always said that when first seeing Khan.

"Me Khan!" Khan yelled out inbetween bites.

In a rather uncivilized way he began eating his food. Preffering to use his hands over knife and fork. Although it did not show, Allen listened carefully to both their tales as he ate his food. Without looking up he spoke, "fame and fortune are fleeting persuits. They set platues for you to reach, and once accomplished you are left in stagnation. Those who have truely found fame and fortune, rarely ever desired either."

[Tarrin]

Hearing the chatter return to the table, The steel also dropped from Zanes voice, Johanns head raised, His shining smile once again took its rightful place on his lips.
"Well my friends" Yes! Johann had decided that this group of wild miscreants would indeed be people he could see as becoming his friends.

"I will see you all later, As now i must go and get ready for classes."
Johann arose from the table and in turn gripped each of his new companions hands.
Making a mental to find Zane later and apologise Johann his way back to his room,Apon entering his room Johann found new clothes on his bed, Also someone had moved his hammock to a different place.
"Guess it's out of the way here", Johann thought as he placed the rope bed back to it's original position. "but here it gets the best breeze". The memory of seeing the old man on the floor earlier receiving a chuckle.
Yes this would be a good year.

Steve looked up to the guy who spoke.

Wow, I didn't even notice him here!

"Well said... um... I believe we haven't had the pleasure of meeting. Hullo, my names Steve Godrun. And you are?" Steve offered his hand for a handshake.

[Aerozord]

Taken another bite of his food, he then whipes his hand off before shaking. It wasn't a firm handshake, merely one as to not be rude. "Hi, my name is Allen Grey." His eyes then wandered to the lovely Emma. "And your friend is?"
