Go, Go, Go.
The grey-haired young man opened his eyes. With a few rays of the rising morning sun shining through the window, Robert wasted little time in getting out of bed and readying himself for the day ahead.
"Early to bed, early to rise. Right on time, I reckon." He quietly remarked, getting into his adventuring garbs, a flexible and waterproofed jacket, hiking boots and resting a knapsack on his shoulders before strolling out of the room.
Now, if he remembered correctly, something was happening at that there Grand Hall, looking at roughly sketched map of the campus as he headed off.
Hope you weren't expecting anything witty here. Maybe some day.Tempestas on a Tempestas Morning
Tempestas Aurion, leader of Team WNTR woke up bright and early with a slight yawn. It had been only yesterday that he had been named leader of his team of Atlesians, and he was ready to begin his first actual day at the academy, eager to learn. After dressing himself in his usual attire and packing Sol Divider and anything else he might need into a leather case, he looked around at his fellow teammates.
"Good morning, everyone.", he politely said to Wayne, Kraken, and Reymond. "I trust that you all rested well?"

Gerhart had gotten little rest the night before, the unfamiliar setting and being amongst three people he didn't exactly trust didn't make rest any easier either. So when he felt the first rays of dawn, Gerhart rose to his feet, pulled a tabard on, belted his sword on and began to rouse his teammates.
Approaching the foot of each teammate's bed, Gerhart would quickly and violently shake all three before growling "On your feet, we've a long day ahead of us"

The Faunus awoke bright and early as she usually did. She didn't want to presume she knew what the others wanted to eat for breakfast, so instead Nonie set herself up to read the rulebook cover to cover. It took an immense amount of mental willpower to not fall back asleep.

The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing.Morning
Vasilos rose slowly, returning to consciousness in much the same way a whale would breach the water. He yawned and stretched, noting Robert was already up and ready to go, and that Nonie was reading the Beacon rulebook. Sanfar seemed still asleep.
Vasilos took a moment to dress himself appropriately. Regular robes today; he didn't feel combat gear was necessary or warranted. He then approached Sanfar's bed, a gleam in his eye visible that was clearly evil in nature.
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."Wayne at least returned Tempestas' greeting with a nod. Getting out of bed, he looked disdainfully at the Faunus waiting at the door to their team's bath, and the idiot he assumed was bathing inside.
"He better hurry up," Wayne commented to Tempestas as he stretched. "Class begins in about an hour and a half, going by the sun."

The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing."Agreed, and I would rather us all not be tardy for our first day of class.", Tempestas said, ignoring Rey's somewhat rude response to his wake up call. "And that took little time at all.", he commented as he saw Kraken exit the bathroom.

"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Good. Don't care. Not changing in front of you." Rey popped the door open and disappeared inside. "You two probably don't need to bathe, right?" She called through the door, running some water to pour over herself. "Squeaky-clean all day every day. Blood of any Faunus you've got on your hands doesn't need washed off anyway."
Ovid shot up in his bed and immediately threw a knife which missed Gerhart's face by a few inches. The young man glared at his partner. "Dammit, Squire. Don't do that. I lack the time or the desire to deal with your horse shit." He said, crossly.

Ovid didn't bat an eye at the insult. "Oh yes, my great amount of horse shit I display by being a more competent fighter than the rest of you and insisting we get back to Beacon to make sure the school was ready for an imminent horde of Grimm." The fighter placed and hand to his face and leaned backwards dramatically. "However shall you all live?!" He declared before springing out of bed and jabbing a fingure into Gerhart's chest.
"Maybe instead of acting like I'm a hinderance you should be thanking me."
-dramatic music ensues-SMMR
Looking down at the finger jabbed into his chest, Gerhart muttered "I seem to have struck a nerve" before gently pushing Ovid's hand aside. His face twisting into something that could only be described as a smile if one was being generous, Gerhart said "Since it is growing ever clear that we will not be getting a long for quite some time now, how about we just pretend that we get along for the sake of this team?"
Lord Vladimir didn't react positively to being shaken awake. He had in fact tried to push Gerhart away out of instinct before he realized that this was his teammate and not some sort of foe.
Way to go, mongrel, He thought, sitting up as his teammates bickered. You certainly should have handled that better.
Mistrali Team Room
Sanfar found herself awake, and yet her eyes remained closed. Such a thing was rather common for her. She doubted anything important was needed of her, so she lay there for awhile longer, merely listening to what was going on as she contemplated going back to sleep. As such, the incognito woman did not notice her teammate sneaking up on her as she lay there with her eyes closed.
"I am nature's weapon. You are unfit to carry on your species, and I shall ensure that you do not do so!" - Charles Darwin, XCOM SniperDO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS?
Vasilos walked up alongside Sanfar, placed both hands along his team member's body, and then shook like a bad metaphor for shaking somebody rather violently.
"Wake up, oh Sanfar! The sun rises in the sky and our day begins soon! If you want to be a Huntsman you must rise from your funk!"
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."SMMR
With his expression returning to its usual grimace, Gerhart muttered "I do not think that is a promise I can keep my 'friend', but I will try" before approaching Vladimir. "Get yourself ready for the day and meet me down in the Grand Hall when you are prepared."
With that, Gerhart left the dorm and began to make his way down to the hall.

Wayne scoffed at Rey's base insults as she disappeared into the bathroom, turning to face Tempestas. "As if I'd get their blood on me..."

"What is this?" Gareth exclaimed when a man bear the royal seal stood in his way, keeping him from following after Gerhart.
"His Majesty requests your presence at the Royal Palace immediately."
"But—"
"It is a matter of great importance, Prince Gareth." At least the man had the decency to refer to Gareth by the title passed down by his father's blood. After a moment, Gareth sighed, turning to his teammates with a regretful look.
"I am sorry, but my brother the king summons me." And with a quick gathering of his materials, he followed the servant in the opposite direction of the Grand Hall, not knowing why Galatine had summoned him or for how long. And now Lord Vladimir was alone in his first trials at Beacon.

"To be honest, I've never killed a single Faunus in my life. What reason would I have for doing so at all?", Tempestas politely stated, matter of fact. Besides, he had taken a shower before the others had woken up, so he was all prepared to head to the Grand Hall when everyone else was ready.

A New Day at an Old Place
The sun rose on the fifth day of Tempestas, and it was time for the new students of Beacon Academy to wake up and face their first day with their masters. The school week was structured as such: Monday through Thursday would see the students meeting with one master before noon, and one after noon. Friday was more or less a free day, since Master Oscar rarely appeared to hand the entire academy a task to complete.
So, today's the day! Wake up and head over to the Grand Hall!
A note: everything up until here
is still mostly canon. Players who joined during that Initation now have it so that their characters were the "real" ones the whole time.
