"Well, would you look at that! Don't you worry! This'll only take a second." Nurse Hello than spat into her hands and rubbed them together with fervor before sliding them over David's wounds. They slowly began to heal, bringing down the swelling and easing the pain until it was no more. "There we are. Would've been even quicker if I did it the old fashioned way, but like I said, I don't do kids. Though I wouldn't mind trying it in a year or two. If you know what I mean."

Fascinating. The effect seemed to be ingrained into her saliva rather than requiring full lip contact. He briefly wondered if the nurse had or had previously considered making some sort of medical salve, before coming back to reality and sending her a mildly confused nod at her implied message. Once again, there was a notable lack of embarrassment, not so much as a blush.
“Uh... Right. Well, thank you. There's one thing; have you considered making some sort of healing mixture using that technique? It seems quite effective,” he asked, deciding to voice his inner thoughts as he pulled his clothes back on over his head. It was probably better to get them out there just in case.

Tell Me, Have You Seen the Yellow Sign?
Laurie's Office
Mahvash gave the therapist a small smile. "Oh excellency, the responsibility for that stress is mine. No student thinks less of you for your attire though, and they think highly of you to begin with."
The daeva eased off Laurie, giving her a small curtsy. "And you did help. Even if I had no reason to tell you the results of training now or say that I would try it back then. I'll leave you with that." She vanished in an abrupt blur of folded space only to reappear later with a tachinnote on a fancy dish. "And this too." Mibinametân.

"Yeah," said the Nurse, "but it doesn't really work that way. I can heal people with my spit, but it starts to lose it's potency as soon as it gets out of my mouth. It'd be nothing but gunk in a few minutes, and then it'd just be a biohazard. That's why most of the time I gotta get up close and personal. Not that I mind."

“Hm. Disappointing, but I thought I might as well ask. Well, thanks again anyway. I feel like I'm slightly taller than Lucy again now,” he said with a hint of sarcasm, before his skin frayed away with a crackle of energy, his form vanishing into little more than a slight ripple in the air and the occasional spark of greenish tinged lightning, which proceeded to rocket out of the room and through the door, presumably back to where the evacuees were huddled.

Class 1 Dorms — Next Morning
After the staff had managed to finally rush to the scene and figure out what the hell was going on, it was decided to call off Parents Night early and send everyone home. Or in the students' cases, back to their dorms. Though not before the staff gave Rosa a good talking to. From what they could tell, everything she said was true, though there were still some things she wasn't telling. In the end, they decided they had no choice but to let her back in the school, both to keep an eye on her as well as well as make sure she coughed everything up. Though they'd make sure to watch her like a hawk.
In any case, Parent's Night had come and gone, and it was once again a brand new day at Saint Academy. Not that it'd be any less eventful. Today was Training Day, and if their first day was any indication, it was going to be far from easy. On top of that, some students had special curriculums. Jasmine had ordered Sam to show up in front of the Green House first thing, no doubt to finally start getting his newfound instincts and abilities under control. Whether or not other teachers had arranged similar curriculums remained to be seen, but either way, it was sure to be interesting. If nothing else.

Random Ice Cream Parlor - Parent's Night
"...and then it turns out, a mustang is a horse!" Remix concluded the story he was telling his parents. Hanging out in the school seemed lame so he wanted to check out the town instead. He was probably having way more fun than everyone else back at that boring old gym.But by then, it was time to return, so he looked over both shoulders to see if anyone was watching, took off his helmet to give both parents a peck on the cheek, and then popped it back into place.
"Okay bye now!" he called to them, opening up the Lyft application as he skated away.
Gym - Parent's Night
Remix got out of the car, and waved to his Lyft driver. It turned out Ebrahim was Persian, so he was able to spend the whole trip talking to the hardworking driver about how he also had a Persian friend at school. Through their discussion, he discovered that while Persia was long gone, the Persian people still had a sizable population in the Middle East, and even made up the majority of the population of Iran. The world sure was an interesting place!One hand firmly gripping the metal carry handle on his hand-packed carton of ice cream, he waved at Ebrahim as the Lyft driver drove away, and he skate towards the school. If he remembered right, everyone should be at the gym....
Of course, as he got closer, he was starting to wonder where the gym was.
"I guess we all had a pretty exciting evening, no?" he said to himself as he skated by on his quest to find a freezer.
Cafeteria - Now
"Anyone like Orange Chocolate?" Remix asked, sitting himself down at a table for breakfast. In his left hand was a big carton of orange chocolate ice cream, and in his right hand were a bunch of spoons he took from the cafeteria's silverware collection. Cradled in his arms were a handful of bowls and napkins. Setting them all down on the table in an unceremonious mess, he grabbed one bowl and one spoon, then opened the carton and started to scoop."This is much better than breakfast back home!" he commented. "Too much potato...."
Parents Night, Nebulous Time Frame
Once they'd solved things, Overload left without much ceremony; he left behind a new phone (which was appreciated) and a stack of autographed pictures (which seemed rather gauche), apparently feeling satisfied that he'd 'done a parent thing'. Caleb for the most part was happy he was gone, though Harmony insisted on waving him off as he rocketed away.
School Grounds, A Bit Earlier
In a shocking plot twist, Caleb had woken up early. In an effort to be more civilized he decided to go for a walk but subconsciously ended up getting closer and closer to the forest and as he approached more questions started going through his head about the various creatures and peoples that lived there (and the overlap therein). As he wandered perilously close to the treeline, Harmony jolted him to attention.
Restricted. Area.
Oh, come on. Like you don't want to know more too?
Not if we start a war or get eaten! Or both!
Caleb sighed, non-verbally admitting that she was probably right. He spun on his heels and started walking towards the main buildings before looking at his watch and deciding to just fly instead.
Cafeteria, Now.
As Caleb walked in, he saw Remix already sat down; come to think of it, there were some questions to be asked there too. Like his actual name. And his face. And was that ice cream?
Caleb hesitated for a second, which Harmony used as opportunity to take control, walk over and sit opposite Remix.
"Morning!"
"...Is that ice cream? For breakfast?"
Caleb's face contorted slightly, the two personalities within not being able to entirely agree on a facial expression.
Surrounded by weirdoes
Sam considered the possibility of leaving without meeting Jasmine, but he knew it would end up with him getting dragged there, so he simply walked there, without any energy on his step.
"I am here" He said in a deadpan.
Wake me up at your own risk.

Outside Greenhouse
Jasmine was standing outside the Greenhouse as she basked in the first rays of the rising sun, reveling in its beauty as she waited for Sam. As soon as he came, she snapped to attention, making sure that everything was ready. "Right on time. Honestly wasn't sure if you were gonna show. Anyway, we'd better get started. You see that?" She gestured toward the field. It was filled with tall grass and wildflowers and small critters. Almost as though it was made for a big old kitty cat to frolic in.
"Flora whipped that up before she went to bad last night. If you're going to get a handle on this, you need to stop seeing this as a curse. You need to stop holding back, let yourself go! And that's exactly what you're gonna do. You're gonna step right into the middle of that field. Once you do, just take a deep breath, close your eyes, and let that kitty loose! And don't worry about going nuts or anything like that. If things get out of hand, I've still got my lute on me. Just let me know when you're ready."

Surrounded by weirdoes
Sam just looked at Jasmine with what looked like a questioning glance, but decided to keep his doubts to himself. Still, there were several things inside him that'd cause a mess once they get out.
You better be ready, or else this place will be a frozen wasteland before you can take control again
Stepping forward, he closed his eyes and gave Jasmine a nod. Here goes nothing.
Wake me up at your own risk.
Cafeteria
"Yeah! Orange chocolate flavor!" Remix said happily to Caleb. "I saw in a movie once that you eat that for breakfast here, I've always wanted to try it out, and I was at an ice cream parlor last night that sold cartons for take-home, so I was standing there thinking Remix, why not just take some home for breakfast?"He tapped on the carton, then on the stack of clean spoons and bowls.
"So I did! Have some!"
Cafeteria
Is that a thing?
It is not.
Caleb just stared for a few solid seconds.
"...Sure."
Caleb scooped some out and apprehensively started eating. If anyone was actually paying attention they'd notice he wasn't actually eating much at all.
"So... What's up with the helmet?"
A gooey tendril pulled a bottle of cola out of his bag and lifted it up before he reached backwards and grabbed it.
"Does... does it 'ever' come off?"
Cafeteria - Remix
"It keeps my head from getting turned into..." he waved one hand around, first as a fist, then he suddenly opened his hand and made an explosion noise with his mouth. "Kaboom!... if I ever get hit too hard there. Plus, I you want to wear a helmet when you rollerblade, ja? And since I'm always rollerblading... well then I'm always protected!"He laughed briefly and slapped the tabletop, as he shoveled in another scoop of ice cream through the tiny hole in his helmet that provided mouth access.
"Is good, no?" he asked, gesturing at the bowl of ice cream Caleb had scooped out for himself.

Field
"Oh, almost forgot!" Jasmine reached into her satchel and tossed Sam a blue metallic collar. "Put this on first! It'll block out your powers. Don't want you turning this place into a frozen wasteland, do we? Anyway, once you put that on, go nuts!"

Cafeteria
"...Yes."
Caleb ate some more, making a slow and obvious show of it.
Is ice cream nutritious?
You know it's not.
He mulled over the helmet comment for a while but decided not to press it.
"Sure. That makes sense. I just have powers."
Caleb stared awkwardly for a while before thinking of another question.
"So, you said you're not from here, right? Where are you from?"
"We can't remember where Caleb's from and I think I'm from space."
Surrounded by weirdoes
Sam just gave the collar an annoyed look before putting it on.
"Someone must really enjoy rubbing it in" He commented, as he closed his eyes again. Digging deep, his animal side, as he started to slouch and his face lost his stoicism, as more raw emotion came out of its shell.
That's where the problem was.
Sam's eyes, normally cold, showed a lot of rage, grief and sadness, and his face showed it clearly.
Falling in all fours, Sam let out a ferocious roar, scaring every small animal on the way, as he started tear through everything he could get his claws into with savagery no one would have seen coming from him.
The boy left, and only the beast stood.
Wake me up at your own risk.
School Halls: Next Day
Hei walked out of a shadow gate, absently chewing on a kebab he got somewhere. Last night had been hectic for him, as Jacob had gotten bored and decided to wander off, resulting in Hei having to excuse himself and chase after the waking disaster that was his friend. Thankfully, he managed to drag Jacob back without incident and said his goodbyes to Mei and Garret.
Where was I supposed to go again? He mused, pulling out his schedule for Training Day.
Tell Me, Have You Seen the Yellow Sign?
Training Room
Mahvash had made herself at home in the room before it could be booked up for 'Training Day'. Alas, binging Yu Yu Hakusho aside, her essence did not accommodate finger push-ups at least easily. Well, the daeva had other ways to work on specific impulse. That aside, this 'tulpa' trick proved stable, and looking at her body/medium under sensitive equipment just meant she could refine her releases, full power super div style.
In the mean time though... "..!" As usual, she betrayed only the slightest exhale upon hitting the ground. The toad hits hard... The bloated, bipedal toad-thing, she'd conjured out of hardlight hit hard and never hesitated to use those freed forelimbs—clawed, freed forelimbs.
The daeva grimaced upon rolling to her feet, holding her stomach and presumably important innards. "Just a demon, but, brutish is what I need." Everyone valued versatility, but a specialty always could be refined further and often faster. All the same, here she was in a basic scrap. Just like old times, when I had to scratch myself and and drip on things that I wanted gone. Or be struck and let my essence waft off like smoke.

As Hei checked his schedule, he noticed that the first order of business was heading to the Training Room. Even so, he still had a bit of time before then. Not that it'd stop him from going right to the Training Room if he so chose.

Training Room
Mikael appeared in a swirl of blackness, behind Matten. He strode forward, noting at her spar with what he assumed was one of her own constructs, and his crossbows rattled at his back. He was fully armed, though he still hadn't bothered to put anything on under his coat.
"Shadowboxing, are we? Foolish." He grinned mischeviously. "If you'd like a real challenge, Matten, how about you spar with me?"
What is so amusing about this? Why do you take lives? How can you forget?
Tell Me, Have You Seen the Yellow Sign?
Training Room
The daeva noted the sudden feel of demon— flesh and blood demon, rising, inverted, to her palms and soles and looking at Mikael. "More like 'light boxing.' One can't find the toads from Jade Empire in the wild."
She smoothly righted herself, tying her robes tight and just letting the steadily growing red stain add to her style while she turned the console, dispelling the hardlight toad.
When she returned, Mahvash slipped into a practiced if somewhat unnatural wrestling stance in the stead of keeping her hands on her hips for the purely mental effort of magery.
"Excuse me for the wait," she managed a quick curtsy while keeping readied. "As you wish." She beckoned him, returning his smile. "Your company is most welcome."
Surrounded by weirdoes
By the time Sam was done trashing and slicing things, a big patch of the grass was dug aside making a big hole, attempts to slice the greenhouse were visible, he had several cuts made to himself, his hands looked to be on bad shape and he looked like the rage was leaving him, leaving him to only collapse on the ground as some of his reason came back.
I had all of that inside me? He wondered, just before he fell asleep I am more messed up than I thought
Wake me up at your own risk.

Training Room
"It's training day, so the rest of the class is coming here anyway. I just thought I'd get a head start." Mikael shrugged and dropped his crossbows on the ground. He needed hand-to-hand practice, and he wasn't certain his bolts would do much to Matten anyway. "And speaking of head starts-"
Mikael was suddenly behind Matten, lunging at her back with arms spread wide. He swung his arms inward in a pincer motion, aiming to wrap his arms around her and dig his claws into her stomach from behind. A keen observer might have recognized it as an amateur attempt at a German Suplex.
What is so amusing about this? Why do you take lives? How can you forget?
Nurse's Office
“You're not... what? Oh. Oh,” David realised, the gears practically visibly turning in his head. “That's your power, right. I understand that.”
Removing his jacket, hoodie and shirt (one could swear he looked to have been wearing them in the wrong order) he turned his back to the nurse in order for her to see the affected area. It wasn't shockingly severe by any means, but it was lightly bruised and slightly swollen in a few places, mostly around the joints, so it must have been painful more in the irritating, dull sense than anything else.
“I got thrown towards a wall, but got caught via my dad's volcanic claw hand. Long story, but I think the whiplash got me,” he reported drolly, looking not at all uncomfortable for the situation for a boy his age. Granted, it's not like he wouldn't have ever gone to the nurse's office before, but there was almost always an underlying aura of awkwardness from teenage boys whenever they were in the presence of an attractive nurse. However, there was absolutely nothing of this sort from David.
