"You know I would not if possible." he said, squeeing her hadn a little in reassurance


"If you two are about to make out, please get a room." Lishian asked.

Astra raised an eyebrow. *thsts getting old by now isnt it?* she asked Lishian
*Yeah* she said with a grin at nic*

"It's fun."

"Until we get back and I have Nani turn you into a harmonica for a few hours." Nicote grumbled.

*Ah yes, you would make an amazing harmonica.* Astra said with a laugh. *but then again how exactly do we get back...*

"I wish I knew." Nicote groaned. "I'm getting too much sunlight for one say."

[Oh ****** ****** ****** ******--- I'm so incredibly sorry for being..... *looks* --12 pages late xD We got incrediably busy yesterday, and I thought it was 9pm not AM. Then we started watching Schindlers List and it felt incredibly disrespectful to be click-clacking away on my laptop while the movie was going. Ahhh bad first impression on my part--- Anyway enough blabbering I'll get started. It seems like most of you have already formed groups (or one big group?? I'm going to be honest I only skimmed all my pings) so I'll just throw my boy in somewhere and let you guys do whatever you want with him xD]


Reuvan took a step and then literally fell through the floor. Right into the sky.

He was so bewildered he didn't even remember that he had wings, and crashed into a canopy of vines.

He groaned at the white hot pain that ran through his right shoulder. Immediately he tried to sit up, get a look at his surroundings, but as he shifted around the blanket of vines he'd been caught in opened up. The harpy let out an undignified yelp as he fell through, his foot catching and saving him from the fall.

And then it dropped him again. This time there wasn't enough space between the vine canopy and the forest floor for him to save himself with his wings, and he hit the ground even harder. On his right shoulder.

Dammit he hadn't even met anyone and yet he was already injured.

Reuvan pushed himself off the ground with his left hand and clumsily collapsed against a nearby tree. Think, think, think.

How did he get here? What had he even been doing before this??? The memory was kind of foggy... but he was pretty sure he'd just been doing training exercises with his group. Was this a test? He didn't think so, as dangerous as the Academy could get sometimes with its teaching, they'd never outright pitch students into an unknown situation. He groaned, and if it was a test he probably failed for getting injured in the first few minutes. The harpy poked his shoulder and hissed at the pain. It felt like he bruised the bone.

The only way he could have gotten here was a transportation crystal...right? But those were very rare, and even in the Academy, which was famed for its hoard of magical items, Professor Birch was the only person who had one. Professor Birch was nowhere near Reuvan when this all happened, so it must have been something else.... but what?

He shook his head a little annoyed, and glared at the bright, tropical mushrooms at the base of the tree. The forest was also hot, and humid, vines swallowing every gap. Reuvan certainly wasn't in the North anymore. He might have even been on another continent, somewhere South? The South was dangerous, untamed wildlife and riddled with curses. It almost debunked his theory of this being a test, too dangerous. Almost.

[The poor birdy doesn't realize he's not even on his world anymore]

(Nah its mostly one big group, if you want you could always interrupt nic, Astra, listrian because they are incredibly good at being interrupted xD)

(Also when you forget you have wings)

Astra heard a squawk and turned around behind her. *Doent they realize they have wings?*Astra said to Nico as she went over to the new comer. *Hello, Im Astra, who are you?*

She frowned as she looked at the harpies shoulder, she wasnt quite familiar in their anatomy but something seeemed off about it. Then again she should probably wait before commenting before she offended someone else.

Reuvan startled at the new person. God were they there the whole time? He certainly hadn't noticed them. Maybe he really was losing it.

Or maybe they where an illusion, a trick. Okay he had to be smart about this...

First, he wouldn't tell them more then necessary.

"A sorcerer-- where is this?"

I mean technically he hadn't graduated yet, so he didn't have his license and technically wasn't a sorcerer, but he hoped that that vague answer would be accepted.

"ANother one?" NIcote groaned, joining Astra. "Will they stop dropping from the sky?"
