Kiros just grinned roguishly, as the woman spoke. Is was a second after that when he pulled himself back to his own feet.

He knew at this point he was risking getting dangerously throttled. If he had listened to his better judgement he would have just grabbed his tray and went to another table. Another table far far away from Alex and her fists, but he found something far too amusing about the entire situation to just let it slip away.

"It is pretty hard to forget a man you fell that hard for, isn't it?"

02-21-2005, 11:37 PM

"Ohhhhh..."

She groaned and facepalmed herself.

"Not again... Look, just let me finish my lunch in peace, all right? You've had your fun, now let me have my food..."

OOC: Felt like posting something, so some NPC activity.

"Cookie cookie cookie cookie cookie cookie cookie cookie cookie cookie!" Kalal continued to scream as he ran away from the snack bar, holding a giant cookie in his hands. A female student who was working at the snack bar today given it to him free, because she thought he was cute. This made Kalal very happy. When he reached a table, choosen completely at random, he got into a seat and quickly began to eat the giant cookie like a gerbil, a rapid fire of mini-bites.

---

Inside his room, Nora was preparing a large banner. He couldn't leave the room during the day, since the sun would burn him, and the halls had windows. The windows in his room where blocked out, which Nora always does when his roommates leave.

After adding the finishing touches to his banner, Nora hung it across the room, so it would be easy to see when someone entered. He sat back and admired his work.

Remember, today is Naked Wednesday

Kiros's grin widened into a smile, as his michievous side kicked in fully, and he pulled out a chair next to Alex, sitting down in front of his food. Within a moment his deck of cards had made its way out of his pocket and onto the table.

"How about a game," he said, his teeth flashing, "Any card game you want, even if it's as simple as drawing for highest card. As many hands as you want... but, of course, we'll make it interesting. You win and I take this tray of mine and find someplace else to sit. If you want I'll never talk to you again. Hell, I'll even throw in 300 big ones. However, if I win, we meet in the commons tonight at 8, for a date."

In truth, he didn't care about the date at all. Well, that was an exagerration. He cared a little. She DID have a nice ass. That was all secondary to him being an asshole and having fun, however.

He reached out and opened the box the deck was in and fanned them across the table. "I'll even let you shuffle and deal."

He just hoped Mr. Silorian or Callous-Paw didn't show up to point out that it was against the rules and serve him with a punishment. In reality, he'd rather it be Silorian if they WERE caught gambling. The guy was a prick, yes, but that just meant he'd let the girl lose before interrupting. He was big on 'natural consequences of one's actions', or so he claimed. Kiros still figured he was just a prick.

"Hrm... All right. I'll bite."

Alex looked the cards over, then quickly plucked one out. She smiled.

"Queen of clubs. Prepare for a good thumping, Mr. Any-Card-Game-You-Want."

Krylo · 02-22-2005, 12:30 AM

Kiros faked a frown, playing a bit of a bluff, like he used to do when gambling in bars. You couldn't let people know you were winning or they'd fold before they bet the big money. It was always best to pretend like you were down. Of course, in this case he was doing it just to amuse himself.

He reached over to the deck and drew a single card, without even looking, and then rotated it over in his hand revealing the king of hearts.

The grin he had been wearing the whole time quickly returned to his face as he tossed it down on top of the queen of clubs. "King and Queen, looks like we're meant for each other, eh... I didn't get you na..."

It was then he felt a slender fingered hand on his shoulder, and one landed on Alex's too.

"Mr. Sitharian and Miss Walker. How nice to see you both... breaking the no gambling rule," the icy voice paused for a moment, allowing the proper ire to gather, "AGAIN, Mr. Sitharian. And, of course, abusing your powers... as usual. You know you can not lose these games," the words were almost a hiss, the 's' sound was even elongated. Of course, despite Sai Silorian's attractive features--due completely to his being fae, almost assuredly--it all seemed quite natural coming from his thin lips.

Sai's hand then clenched a bit on Alex's shoulder, "Of course, you DID accept his bet, Miss Walker, and the school does not appreciate dishonesty, nor do I. In addition to whatever punishment the disciplinary committee assigns you two, you, Miss Walker, are to be expected to pay your debt to Mr. Sitharian." The voice suddenly changed, seemed ALMOST happy with itself as it finished off, "You shall both learn far quicker from the... natural consequences of your actions than from any silly job the committee assigns to you."

The impeccably dressed faerie then turned around and left the two to sort out their differences, which, of course, would be extreme given the knowledge he just imparted. The students in front of him could see a cruel smirk over his normally straight face.

Kiros turned back to Alex and grinned weakly, letting out a little nervous chuckle. "...Not in the face...? Please...?"

02-22-2005, 12:37 AM

"Christ... am I in for it now."

She held her head in her hands. Looking over, Kiros could see the beginnings of tears forming in her eyes.

"Well... I"ll see you at eight, then, Mr... Kiros."

SHe stood and walked away, leaving her half-eaten lunch behind.

Gineko · 02-22-2005, 05:54 AM

Clara was walking along side of Dreamos to the part of the building that was devoted to mental and gift control. She was staring inquisitively at him.

"You're not a possession case, are you?" she asked him. He looked at her strangely, she guessed it was because he was wondering why she asked.
"Just curious, you needed to find Mr. Hunter and he specializes in mostly possession cases. But you're not..." she looked in his eyes, "you don't have someone else looking out through your eyes." Then she realized how weird she must sound, and she giggled. "Sorry, I do that sometimes."
All the time you mean. Freak. Her ear twitched, and she stared out of focus at a spot right above Dreamos's shoulder, Shut up, I see you've calmed down. No use in being angry at the moment, now that the neverending story has been silenced. She smiled, then looked at Dreamos again. "So, what is your gift?"

Rayinne · 02-22-2005, 06:37 AM

"...and you can take two of them and shove them up your ass!"

Jerod looked up. He knew that voice. Not its owner so much, but he knew the voice. She was incredibly annoying, shouting like that half the time, but she could be counted on to provide a more accurate measure of time than the cafeteria clock, which was always getting messed around with by prank-playing telekinetics.

Hearing it meant he didn't have long to finish his meal and head for his Magic class. His food was about done anyway, so he just picked himself up and walked out. On his way out, he took a glance back and saw the girl being reprimanded by a professor.

This distraction, small as it was, broke his concentration, and a bolt of electricity shot from him. By all rights, it should have gone for the person he was walking past, but as that happened to be Kiros, it settled on grounding itself into a metal trash can.

He'd have rather it hit Kiros. Bastard had cleaned him out not two weeks ago.

Bailey · 02-22-2005, 08:48 AM

Draemos shrugged
"I sense peoples emotions, and now its getting stronger, to the point that its giving me problems. I heard that he had a similar gift and I thought that he could help. So does the two sets of emotions mean that you were possessed? If so, there's more possession cases here than one would think likely. Was it you that was so angry or the other you?"
