YellowPerch Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 Mac was content with his sleeping posture and the warmth the animals provided. However when he heard his name being called he began to stir. "Hnnn. Wha-?" Mac blinked his eyes and some of the birds flapped away only to land beside him on the ground. His vision was blurry at first and he saw a faint shadow beside him. When his vision cleared he saw Nova standing beside him. "Hmm, Nova? What are you doing?"

Undinevea Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 The flicker of his eyes as the boy woke up was absolutely adorable to him, making him unimaginably awkward on how to ignore the fact especially coupled with his sleepy tone. Even as the birds flew away, they did not bother to leave him and that fact was very peculiar for Nova. He had never seen animals so attracted to a human, stepping back as his attention returned to the bunny rabbit on Mac's lap. "If you're not already preoccupied, I was thinking of showing you around the campus." He exclaimed a bit nonchalantly though his heart was beating eratically with the cute creatures practically surrounding the boy, unsure where to look and ended up straight to the person's eyes.

YellowPerch Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 Mac beamed in his half drowsy state. He'd yet to really notice any of the animals around him. He nodded happily. "That would be great! I've hardly been through have the school, seeing the rest of the campus will help." He went to stand up then, noticing his legs were a bit heavy. He looked down and noticed a ball of fluff staring back up at him. He tensed a bit, knowing very well Nova was looking right at it. This he couldn't hide. It was then he noticed the birds as well, and the little chipmunk that came to rest on his side. He internally groaned. This was why he tried finding a secluded place. He should no better then to sleep outside however. He picked up the bunny and placed it gently next to the chipmunk who now stirred awake. Mac stood up then and dusted himself off. He tried laughing the scene off. "No wonder I was so warm." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undinevea Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 While some people would have been panicked at how animals swarmed around them, Nova wondered why Mac reacted differently. There was obvious tenderness when he picked up the furry animal, laying it down beside another that had been fast asleep as he could not help but notice how these creatures were willing and quite calm around him. A blink and a pause, Nova staring at the boy as he tried to register what had just happened. He did not want to question about it yet how the boy handled the situation seemed like he was used to it was somewhat interesting to him, not really able to remove it from his mind that easily. "Well, I'll show you around the main building first." With that, he turned around and motioned his hand for the other to follow before beginning to walk towards the entrance.

YellowPerch Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Mac didn't really think about the situation he'd be in when he fell asleep outside. It was just so natural to him and peaceful, that he had forgotten he was at a new school trying to his that fact from others. He was glad however, as Nova seemingly ignored the animals and took him on a tour around the campus. He beamed brightly as the other turned around and began walking away announcing where he would show Mac to first. "Sure! I'll just follow you okay!"

Undinevea Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Forcing himself to forget about the animals for the moment, Nova showed Mac around the classes as well as the existing clubrooms, gesturing the boy to the signs of the room before giving a short explaination of each room. With the varities of classes, basic lessons were held at classrooms while more practical ones were held at specialized rooms. Each floor was for different years so it was pretty much convenient for the students. He had also showed the boy around the academy's facilities to which were always maintained especially with the help of magic, sometimes looking at the other to figure out his reaction towards it. The last stop was the dormitories, males and females seperated which he only pointed out where the opposite gender was and warned the boy to never enter the territory as it was against the school rules. Recalling the reason for the patrols, students did not seem to be to obedient of it. Once they reached in from of the males dorm, he stopped and turned to the boy. "I'm sure you know this is our dorm. We have a curfew which is 10pm so be sure to be in your room by then." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YellowPerch Posted November 4, 2016 Author Share Posted November 4, 2016 Mac was amazed at everything and everyone who had crossed his path. The moral upon the walls, ceramic based upon tables, stone statues lining the hallways, everything amazed him. At one point he had lost himself to the comfort of his day dreams and soon found he'd missed a few things Nova had even said. But by what he had caught when he found himself again he had only figured the same thing applied to the other rooms. The specialty rooms were huge compared to the other classrooms, which he supposed was only necessary, seeing how almost an entire student body would fit into one room. By the time they returned to the dorms, which Mac saw in a better brighter light then last night, he noticed he was feeling more comfortable with the school. Of course, that could have been because Nova was there to guide him through it. When the other spoke up Mac looked over at him and nodded. "Ten, that's easy enough. And you don't have to worry about me going to the girls dorm." He brightly chirped. He noticed it was a little too late to take it back, but he was hoping Nova wouldn't take it the way it was really meant to sound. His magic abilities weren't the only thing that he got teased for. One of his classmates had found out he were gay and bullied him every moment of every day. Even on days when they didn't go to school. Mac twiddled his thumbs in his hands trying to ignore his own words. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undinevea Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Nova stiffly nodded at the boy's response, taking it as Mac was willing to abide by the rules. His words had somewhat assured him, able to perform his daily duties just a little bit easier with one student following his prokise. "I do advise you to refrain from sleeping outside," he calmly warned, recalling the recent event before the tour. It was quite odd to find a group of creatures in one area of the campus, concluding that the boy would be at fault to that. He did not want to think further anymore, pushing it off his mind as it was such a mundane topic to be hung up off. "Do you have any other questions?" He inquired after a moment of pause as his eyes never left the other's, hoping his efforts were useful for the boy and not so annoying when his face was the one that the person would usually be met with. Not being in a rush with not having anything to take care of in this instant, he did not mind on attending to Mac's needs if he had anything else to ask.

YellowPerch Posted November 7, 2016 Author Share Posted November 7, 2016 When Nova had made a note of possibly not sleeping outside anymore, Mac laughed anxiously. "S-sorry about that. The sun was just so warm, I- I couldn't help but sit down and fall asleep." Perhaps it wasn't the fact that Nova was saying no to sleeping outside in general, perhaps he was advising him that such a thing is unsightly. Mac twitched from the thought. He didn't want to think Nova was someone who would find something like that disgusting. When Nova asked if he had any questions Mac thought a moment. "Oh um, yeah actually, I didn't see a store at all for school supplies. Is there a place nearby that I can go to?" He tried his best to forget about the thoughts that overtook his mind. Concentrating on his question and the answer to come instead. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
