Week Thirteen: Tuesday
Who: Kim and Peck When: After classes Where: The Pool What: The making of a new friend
Halcyon. Magical, grand, the top of Supernatural learning. And all bullshit. This place was like a Hogwarts full of muggles. Peck, he would have undoubtedly been in Slytherin, thanks to his less than expecting ways of those different from him. Yeah.... don't even ask how he knows about those books. Long story, and the truth of which he would deny. He had found the place to be thus far, really disappointing. The number of humans, or former humans didn't exactly help his mood, but... even those from supernatural families seemed to be very human. He thought here, or all places he could be himself, but no. It was just like being back home, only you couldn't really escape someone if they pissed you off, you had to see them in the halls, or worse, in class.
Not to mention, most of which were annoying. They all thought they knew everything, and that they were never wrong. So much arrogance in less deserving races, it made him ill. In truth, he wasn't sure how long he could stick it out here. Already he wanted to report back to his father, and tell him just what sort of school this was. How the students were. There was no way he would be pleased with such news. Then again, he wasn't really sure how to contact them. They didn't have a phone, and not really much of an address. He was stranded on an island, miles upon miles away from his clan, with no way to call for help. He was fucked, for the most part. At least until this next... break, where he heard that students could request passage back home. Uh, yeah, he'd be all over that.
He couldn't bitch too much, there was the sea. Oh wait, yeah he could, the water was cold compared to home. That would take some time getting used to. But, they did have this indoor pond, the water of which was a lot warmer that the ocean. Problem still stood that he wouldn't transform in it, fresh water, and what not. Plus, you really couldn't recreate the ocean, but, he was willing to give it a try. After attempting a couple of assignments, he slipped on a pair of red board shorts, flip flops, and slung a towel over his shoulder. After being lost for nearly ten minutes, he came upon the pool, a few people seemed to be just coming out of it. He watched them carefully for a moment, not speaking, but rather glaring. Once it was all his, he laid his towel aside, slipped from his shoes, and sat down at the edge of the pool.
He allowed his feet to dangle in the water for a moment. Nothing happened, he would have to swim like a human. As disgusting, and unnatural as it was to swim with legs, he knew how. Slipping into the water, he allowed himself to sink to the bottom, he floated there for a long moment, his eyes moving around the naked tank. What was the appeal? There was nothing interesting to see under here, no one to talk to. Boring. When he finally resurfaced, it was to find that he was no longer alone in the room. A hand moved to his hair, pushing it up, and out of the way, before he spoke to her. "You're in one of my classes." He called, swimming to the edge of the water. "Kim, right?"
