ANNOUNCEMENT 004

[intercom_voice]

[Bet you all missed hearing from the lovely lady over the intercom, yes? No? Well too bad, because she's making her scheduled announcement right now, as indicated by the screeching of intercom feed.]

I do hope you're all enjoying the fresh air. I know how stir crazy some of you have been getting. A little fun in the sun never hurt anyone. Maybe now we can cut down on the property damage, hm? [Her tone darkens a bit.] And the fires.

You're welcome.

[Because clearly she's doing all of you a favor!]

And remember, don't spend all your time taking in the sun. You have studies to get to! "Only the educated are free"~

[The announcement ends.]

SPEAK TO THE VOICE

[intercom_voice]

[holydemon]

[Jabbing the button.]

It was an accident, okay? Am I seriously never going to live that down?

[intercom_voice]

[No Nero, you won't. She will passive aggressively remind you forever.]

An accident born from carelessness.

[holydemon]

[As if he didn't have enough passive aggressiveness directed at him already.]

You're being pretty careless yourself, you know. That's bound to cause a few accidents. [A bit of anger edges into his voice.] Like for one, bringing me here.

[intercom_voice]

[Dryly.] There are always a few delinquents in the bunch.

[But then her tone sweetens to a sickeningly fake degree.]

We'll see how long you keep that attitude.

[moderndaydragon]

"Only the educated are free?" There's no classes or anything going on here.

[intercom_voice]

Have you not been learning new things?

[moderndaydragon]

Only not to try running with a gash in my side.

[intercom_voice]

A very valuable lesson indeed. See? Your classes are benefiting you already.

GENERAL MINGLE

[When the announcement comes Pegasus was actually not in the building or even on campus grounds this time. No, he'd taken the liberty of pilfering through the West Wing's supply cabinets from the art room and made his way out to the oceanic cliffside earlier that day, where the horizon line of where ocean and sky met could easily be seen with the sun setting down into the waters.

While it's been a little time since last he'd taken up the brush, but with idle time passing away and the island open for them now to explore, on a whim he'd felt the urge to set up his easel and canvas and come out into the open.

It's been a while too since he decided to do a landscape scene, Pegasus leaning forward in a chair he'd set up while he set to dabbing his detail brush in the various greens and blues of the water to create the waves crashing against the shoreline. As an accomplished artist it wasn't altogether a difficult scene to capture, but one might say alone time like this was kind of therapeutic. In any case he didn't expect to be interrupted any time soon, so he put his concentration into it, contented at least to use the afternoon light in this way.]

[blueyesfanboy]

[Well, expect to be interrupted Pegasus, because here's Seto Kaiba to do just that. Although to be fair, the CEO merely approaches the man when he notices him, but doesn't say anything just yet.

...And then after a minute, he decides he has something to say after all.]

Enjoying the scenery? [It was sarcasm. Bitter, even.]

[mister_foppish]

Hmm? Oh~ If it isn't Kaiba-boy. Hello.~

[He lifted his head at the sound of the boy's approach, a fleck of blue paint on his cheek. Clad in his painting clothes instead of his usual suit Pegasus relaxed for a moment, sitting back in the chair.]

Mm. Yes, well. It's quite preferable to being confined to the indoors.

[moderndaydragon]

[Karasu's wandering had eventually lead her to the same cliff (if breathing a bit hard, ow, maybe this had been a bad idea), but when she sees Pegasus, she halts in her tracks. She... admittedly had not expected to see a painter up here. Though from what she can glimpse from her position a ways back, she can guess as to why he's here.

A part of her wants to go up and see. The other part doesn't want to interrupt him. So, for the moment, she just stands where she is, watching him.]

[mister_foppish]

[He continues to let the strokes do the talking for him, painting in the flecks of sunset color into the waves and making them reflect from the ocean's surface on the canvas. If there was anything he was particularly good at, it was painting.

Funnily enough he doesn't appear to notice her approach from so far back, but if she doesn't say anything he was going to continue his work.]

[mrthunderbolt]

[Just because Jack was seemingly stuck in this weird school, he didn't see a reason to stop his training, but with no VR facilities around, Raiden decided to do it the old-fashioned way. He threw yet another watermelon into the air while being outside in one of the yards, slashing it into perfectly portioned sizes.]

[shoutingmatch]

[The Dragonborn had more or less the same attitude. If anything, being stuck was more of a reason to train. Which is what brings her outside as well where she catches Jack's impressive work on the watermelon.

Although she finds Jack himself more intriguing in the "what in oblivion is he supposed to be" sort of way.]

[She crosses her arms, keeping her tone casual. She didn't want to sound too impressed.]

Not bad.

[mrthunderbolt]

Thanks.

[The cyborg put down his sword momentarily, his one eye looking over at her. Yet another who didn't view him in disgust, because of what he was. It always surprised him.]

Want a piece?

[Not like he could eat it.]

[cybrid]

[ While considerably less impressive than if a human managed to slice the watermelon into pieces, Leo has to give some props to this person's precision with a blade. Even being outfitted with top-grade tech, it takes some adjusting; not everyone can pull off what he just did. ]

Nice moves.

[mrthunderbolt]

Thanks.

[Raiden looked over at him, instantly spotting his cybernetic parts. He didn't recognize them, staying on the defensive in case he was an enemy. Was he a mercenary? A cop? Some other type of special forces?]

[He picked up a still whole watermelon.]

Want to try it for yourself?

[Was Jack trying to see what weapons this guy had on him? Yes, he was.]

[moderndaydragon]

[Thankfully, if there was one good thing about being a dragon, it was that her injuries tended to heal rapidly. Her side was already giving her a lot less pain, even if it wasn't anywhere near time to cut the stitches, which meant that Karasu can actually wander around the island now.

It would be so much easier to learn her way around the outside here if she could actually fly, but she's afraid of transforming at the immediate present -- she isn't sure if the stitches will carry between forms, or at least remain on her human form. There's no real way she can risk it.

So she's ended up just throwing on a hoodie, jeans, and boots, carefully picking her way around the building and the ways outside and looking more than a little lost and irritated.]

[shadowscall]

And Kai's wandering around outside too, not lost, just thinking. Mostly about what he wants to do to whoever is keeping them here. The majority of his thoughts along that line aren't very pleasant, so to distract himself he's tossing a small ice sphere from hand to hand as he walks. As such, he's really not paying attention to much else.

Here's to hoping he doesn't literally bump into anyone.

[moderndaydragon]

[Unfortunately, he does, and it's on Karasu's wounded side. She hisses sharply, almost inhumanly, as he does, recoiling back and cringing.]

Watch it!

[holydemon]

[It's not hard to spot that white hair, much like his own. Nero remembers the girl from the roof fire he'd caused, and the way she ran off with a limp.

She seemed okay now, but still...he was a little concerned. Despite his arrogance, Nero felt it was his duty to protect others. He wouldn't have become a Knight if he didn't.

That and he liked fighting, so, you know...win/win.]

Hey, you!

[moderndaydragon]

Huh?

[...Oh, hey!]

Ah, it's you again! You're okay!
