The Classroom

[Freindhub]

Marissa sits down in the nearest desk and continues to fold her piece of paper, looking around for a conversation to join.

[Shi-Ures]

Shi wakes up and looks around, also not having anybody to talk to, so he gets into a more comfortable position and goes back to sleep

[Case Duo]

Casey grabs herself some paper and sits down near Marissa. She looks over at what Marissa is doing.

"Hey what are you gonna make with your paper?"

[Monstrosity]

"I wonder what it will behave like if it comes to life," he thinks as he continues his attempt to fold his paper into something.

[Yosah]

Yosah, meanwhile, was in the back of the class working furiously on crafting his masterpiece. The motions that he was making seemed repetitive, yet somehow desperate, as though he had a huge task before him. He was a man who had emersed himself completely in the Throes of Creation and would not stop until he had completed his craft.

Suddenly, there's a loud *SLAM* in the back of the room as Yosah pounds the table he was currently using. The successive concussion sends countless pieces of blurred origami pieces into the air. Yosah, waisting no time, leaps into the air catching the pieces and seemingly combining them in the same, rapid motion.

"I WILL DEFEAT YOU ORIGAMI. OH YES, YOUR DEFEAT WILL BE LIKE A FINE STEAK GRILLED TO THE PERFECTION, WITH THE MIDDLE STILL RED AND BLOODY. YOUR SADNESS WILL BE LIKE A FINELY BREWED ICE TEA THAT ACCOMPANIES IT ALONG WITH A BASKET OF BUTTERED ROLLS THAT THE WAITRESS BRINGS TO ME AND KEEPS REFILLING EVERYTIME I EAT THEM ALL. THOSE WILL REPRESENT YOUR UNENDING CRIES OF ANGUISH. YOUR TEARS WILL BE THE GRAVY THAT'S SERVED WITH THE STEAK AND SOPPED UP WITH AFORMENTIONED ROLLS. YOUR PAIN WILL BE LIKE A BOWL OF SEAFOOD PASTA THAT I ALSO ORDERED, WITH THE PARMESAN THAT THE WAITRESS SPRINKLES ON IT REPRESENTING YOUR FAILURE. THE CRACKED BLACK PEPPER WILL BE YOUR DOOM. AND OH MY GOD, WHY AM I SO HUNG OVER FOOD? I DIDN'T REALIZE I WAS STARVING. WHY AM I STARVING? HAS IT BEEN THAT LONG SINCE I ATE?"

He continues working as his fingers begin to horribly paper cut. The pain screams in his head as he continues working. The pain, however, is meaningless to him. He is no more than a machine now. He is a machine that was built for one task before it explodes into a blaze of glory and death. His DEATH BLAZE will signal the arrival of the beginning of the end, and all will shudder before it.

Once again, he slams his fist into the table sending the origami pieces flying into the air. Once again, his arms blur from piece of paper to piece of paper, each of them representing a part of the glorious puzzle he was completing. Before even a single piece has touched the ground, he manages to get them all, further completing his dark and terrible work.

His hands are now bleeding, though he can't tell anymore. His hands are no longer important. If his hands fail, he will use his arms. If his arms fail, he will use his feet. If his feet fail, he will use his legs. If his legs fail, he will use his teeth. If his teeth fail, he will use his head. If his head fails, he will use his body. If his body fails, he will use his heart. If his heart fails, he will use his mind. If his mind fails, he will use his spirit. If his spirit fails, HE WILL USE HIS SOUL.

Everything he's got, he's using it. Because once he's started something, he will finish it.

HE NEVER REFUSES A CHALLENGE!

[AgentXY14]

"Reminds me a lot like Fawful," Charles comments on Yosah's shouting. "So many hillarious similes. 'Mustard of your doom', indeed. That's a compliment, by the way."

"Charles turns over to Zero. "That's kinda the point, isn't it? My archrival had a potion that could amplify your body, and what does he do? He tries to use it on everybody in town, hypnotize them, and take over the world. Butchered the stylus outta science." He thinks to himself. "Actually, those devices sound kinda cool, if a bit excessive. I'll pay for customs, if you have them. Or in exchange for product testing, whaever."

[Wartooth]

Hrothulf arrives in class ashamed that he's late, but within a single moment his eyes fill wide with wonder at Yosah's display. Truly, there is mastery. His soul wishes nothing more than to bask in such a beautiful dance of blood and creation, as beautiful as any battle of steel and muscle, but he cannot help from look around the room.

He sees...well, the only ones he recognizes are Enkidu, Yosah, Karn, Oliver, Zero, and then of course there's the gaggle of legion and their associates.

And a 14 foot tall brick house made of naga. There's that, too. So much naga, in fact, that for the first time in almost 70 years of living with humans he actually has to look up. It's a big deal.

"I am going to need a Bigger Hammer," he mumbles.

With a sigh so heavy it shoots frost out from under his helm and a look down, Hrothulf speaks: "I apologize for my lateness, teach.....er....is that you Gwen?" Hrothulf says to ms. Tulip-Blossom in a case of mistaken pixie-identity.

I've never seen more than half of these people. Maybe my friends are in here, just...differently than they were before.

...Damn that's a lotta snake woman.

[Gravemind zombie]

Zaka sighs, now bored that her date is pretty much speechless and her teacher has moved on to new students.

[Makkitotosimew]

Alexis decides to intervene in her sisters conflict, starting with a hug for Roe. Please sisters, we should share our love, not our rage....

[Rockstar]

Veronica stares blankly at Calypso, seriously considering her offer.... "You think we could work something out? Like you get me some booze and I'll give you an autograph?..." Alice looks over to Alta and Andreos. Her face has 'help me' written on it.

[Freindhub]

Marissa turns to looks at Casey. " I can't tell you, you'll just have to wait until I'm done." She smiles, then continues folding.

[Monstrosity]

"Oh great, another booze hound," Oliver muttered to himself as he continued folding, "I couldn't give less of a damn." He then says to 'Veronica', "Seriously, you're not famous around here. As far as I know, you're a generic nobody whose name isn't even known. As for the liquor, I doubt you even need it. One sip of that stuff, boom! Wake up with a headache and the feeling you did something very wrong." Oliver doesn't really care if he angers her. She's nothing to him.

[Zero Confidence]

Zero listens to Charles. "I see, well nothing is too excessive after you've spent some time in this school. Things around here get very dangerous, so being a little overly prepared is actually what puts you in the honor-roll. But no worries, I'm sure you'll experience how the school is eventually, then you can see for yourself just how prepared you need to be."

Zero pulls out a list of all that she's currently able to make a device for.

Element Spells Learned:
Fireball 1
Flaming Weapon
Ice Shard 1
Heal Damage 1
Minor Alterations
Sex Change
Bone Shooter
Wind Blast 1
Earth Spike 1
Entropic Blast 1
Light Beam 1
Sonic Blast 1
Synaptic Enhancer

"Those are all the spells I've learned that I can make devices for. If there's a particular spell your interesting in having a device for, I can tell you the price. However if your a new student, I suggest finding a part-time job first, cause my devices run on batteries that cost $1 for each unit of energy power. With my current skills you can get one or two shots for free before needing to refill the device with a new set of batteries. And anyone can use a scientist device, even those that have lost their ability to cast spells, seeing it's the device that's casting the spell for them." She says and explains, and advertises as well.

[pneumonica]

Zade heads into class, and looks around, getting a perspective on what is to be done. Paper folding was a technique used back on Azif, although it was occasionally associated with the paper mages - odd ducks, even among the esoterrorists. He raises his hand, asking for the teacher. "Uhm... can I just fold a lantern? Would that be cheating?"

[10ebbor10]

Ebbor gets a paper and,unfamiliar with origami but understanding the general idea, decides to make a random geometrical figure.
