"Good morning, sir," Kim said gently to the instructor, still getting used to the new clothes - they actually fit her, unlike any of her previous outfits had ever done. It was
nice

Grintham Stoneshield
The Battle Mage's Quarter
Battle Magic
Grintham gave the orc a stare, deciding it was for that very reason they were always so cranky in the stories his uncles had told, then returned his gaze to Varathrien.
"Top o' the mornin' to ye, sir," the dwarf greeted, saluting the blood elf smartly.

Character
: Siber Antares, Dietrich Eisenfaust
Location
: the Spellbreakers' Quarter
The Dietrichs pulled out the already familiar encrusted gold rods.
"Before your day begins properly, there is one less than pleasant matter to be attended to. You are to become spellbreakers, and for that magic resistance has to be burned into your bodies. I shall keep the pain to its absolute minimum, but it cannot be avoided entirely."
Eisenfaust barked a word of power, and immediately several things happened to every student with a red ring. Siber gasped, the ring on his hand suddenly feeling so hot he was sure it had severed his finger and cauterized the wound. He felt like he had been punched in the gut with a sledgehammer by someone with the precision of a jeweler and the brute strength of an ogre, and to make matters worse the sensation was couple with the feeling of being dumped into ice cold water.
The sensory hallucination was gone sooner than he had fully realized it. The boy shook his head furiously, having great difficulties in standing upright rather than collapsing on all fours. He looked down, and, unsurprisingly, his ring finger was perfectly healthy.
Character
: Androw Kavendish, Varathrien Malaghast
Location
: the Battle Mages' Quarter
The Varathrien in the female's quarters snorted, "That would be 'Curator Malaghast'. This is your only warning, Azuresong."
After that, both elves held their arms in front of them, palms open and facing one another.
"Pay attention, students, for this is the exercise that will help you master the power coursing through you.
Everyone one of you has a side that is better at releasing energy, and one that is better at absorbing. And I mean literally, right and left side. It is similar to being right-handed or left-handed, but there is no direct correlation between the two. And though in time, much like with handwriting, it is possible to master both to an equal degree, for now you'll be better off relying on your natural tendencies.
In my case, my right side is inclined towards releasing and the left side towards absorbing. Half-flex your fingers on both hands like this, and slowly loose energy from the center of your palm, transferring it to the other hand. Closing your eyes helps often, though if you do rely on it, it will get beaten out of you sooner rather than later, so my advice would be to try and do it with your eyes wide open from the start. Long as this is the only thing you are trying to do with your power, the Overseer will gently nudge you in the right direction and to a degree prevent you from sidetracking."
The elf waggled his fingers, and what appeared to be a droplet of water shining with brilliant white light coalesced in the cup formed by his right hand. It bulged until it reached the size of a nail before smoothly floating away from his right hand and right into his left, where it got sucked into his skin in a much similar manner. Gradually, the droplets formed faster and faster until it was a continuous stream, a glowing white thread connecting his hands.

"Can't complain, though it was the first time I had dreams so vivid. What about you?" Eryan asked with a smile.

"Oh, I didn't have much time for sleep. It was the girl's dorm after all. It was mandatory for there to be a pillow fight while we all wore little more than our undergarments. But I'm su-ure you wouldn't want to know anything about tha-t," Vera said teasingly, affectionately mussing Eryan's hair.

Vera laughed and patted his head. "You are just a-dor-a-ble. Don't ever change. Oh hey! It's that weird quiet guy. Hey!" she called over to Callyx. "Wanna sit with us!" she called, already making her way towards the buffet tables regardless of his answer.

"For a given value of 'guy'," Eryan muttered under his nose, running his hand through his ginger hair with a vague hope it would miraculously become that much more ordered. Still, he followed Vera to the buffet tables - the boy was feeling rather famished.

"You seem interesting," she said, gathering up a plate of toast and scrambled egg. "And interesting people are generally good. To. Know." Having explained herself she turned about and sat at an empty table, leaving it to the others whether they would like to join her.

"Look at Stormbreaker, everyone! This is very impressive for someone's first try," Varathrien said approvingly. He was both praising the young orc and distracting the students, making it harder for them to perform the exercise.
"And Kavendish is not doing half-bad, either," the curator grinned, noticing a thin, yet stable thread between the short boy's palms. "If you are purposefully lowering the output so that it can be controlled easier, then you're a smart one."

"And knowing is half the battle!" Eryan said with a cheesy grin, sitting down with a plate full of various snacks, most of them somehow related to bacon, as well as a glass of orange juice.

"Alright then, Curator Malaghast." Elthalis replied to the elf.
Then she held out her hands infront of her with the palms up. She began to lighly flex her fingers and shiny, sparkly waterly energy in the color of lavender sprouted out of her hands, mostly out of her left and a tiny amout from her right.
The energy from her right hand get absorbed down into her hand and the liquid like materia from her left got pulled towards her right hand and was eventualy absorbed by the hand.
The magic continiued to come out of her left and then be absorbed by the right hand in a increasing pace.
Eyes open the entire time.

Kimberly Fraser
Spellbreaker's quarter
Kim felt the overwhelming unpleasantries and like Siber she only managed to stay upright with utmost difficulty. The momentary, crushing pain hardly lasted, but it was very noticeable and left her nauseous. She was glad she hadn't eaten, but mustered every ounce of willpower to focus on the positives: it was all to make her stronger.
Better.
The very best.

Having finished the meal, Callyx placed the tray in the designated stack and moved over to the table where Vera sat. "This hasn't happened before."

Elysia did as the instructor said, and seemingly out of nowhere, a cyan stream intersected with orange threads started flowing from her right hand to her left.

"Elaborate for those of us ignorant of 'this'," Vera advised, pointing a food laden fork at Callyx to prompt him before reversing it towards her mouth.

Grintham, not about to be outdone by an orc, followed suit. Initially all that appeared was a few sparks, though after a few moments they flared up suddenly and a strong beam of energy formed, flowing from left to right.

Kazhra looked around, trying to work out where she would sit, grasping a tray piled high with ham and various other meats.

"Another person, inviting me. I had concluded that no one here should take note of me but for my own introduction," Callyx mused.
