Elaine Fenyrr's Story

Elizabeth breathed in deep. The first time she was actually going to make some nice---try to make some nice conversation with other supernatural beings. She breathed in deep once again, and started to walk towards the Academy, her luggage in hand. She didn't have much, but what she could find over the past year...And the school uniform.
Elizabeth's steps were slightly sluggish, her feet nearly scraping against the pavement as she had gone forward.
"You better not screw this up..."
She had muttered to herself, remembering the crumpled piece of paper which stated her dorm room. She took it out, and sighed.
"Room 235. God help me if I have roommates."

Elaine:

Elaine had found the school a few months back, signed up for it, and lived next to it for a while. But still, as always when she saw the school, the impact of its large exterior hit her like a tidal wave. Her hand clenched the piece of paper which had her dorm room and hallway on it. Her ears and tail wanted desperately to pop out. But she suppressed the urge to let them do so.
She was going to hate the hallways, she knew. There was already a crowd forming outside the entrance of the school, talking and laughing to one another. Involuntarily Elaine let out a small hiss, and the hairs on her fox like tail, which had suddenly popped out, rose on ends. Fortunately for her no one saw, and she was able to make it disappear again. She scurried around the cloud and almost into a blue haired angel. Quickly as possible and mumbling apologetically, she darted away and into the entrance hall.
The hall was almost completely empty, although a few lost students wandered around aimlessly. Elaine was glad for this, and she hurried to the hallway in which her dorm was supposedly in and looked for her room.
She found easily. Engraved in a plague attached to the door were the numbers 233; easy enough to remember. She tucked her piece of paper into her rather large carrying case and opened the door.
At first glance it seemed no one had been in the room. But then Elaine spotted a small toy, perhaps a for gotten comfort item, lying on a bed. It seemed to be sitting up, although she couldn’t see it very well. She moved in closer and put her head down next to the body of the doll. She was now eye to eye level with the toy. It moved.
Elaine skittered backward a few steps. The toy, she realized, was not a toy at all. In fact, it was a small little girl, about the size of her entire face, with blonde hair. Elaine had had little to no contact with the supernatural world, but she at least knew what this girl was. Her roommate was a fairy.

The blond girl that had entered the room, unnoticed by Natalie, had gotten awfully startled when she had moved. Natalie folded shut the book she was reading and adjusted her position, standing up and facing the blond girl who had skittered backwards. As far as Natalie could tell this girl was human, so probably a Mage or Nymph. It didn't actually matter to Natalie what race she was, but she wanted to make sure she wasn't going to say something unintentionally insensitive. 'Whoops,' Natalie shook her head and cleared her throat realizing she was probably taking too long to say anything. "Hello! I'm Natalie, feel free to make yourself at home, if you need anything just ask," smiling and letting out a slight giggle she added, "Within reason, I doubt I can help you with unpacking anything.

(OOC- I can'tdo fancy lettering, on my ps3 right now. Mom's pc broke.))

Lucy went to her dorm room after coming back from the bench she was on, her face still red from embarrassment and sobbing. She wiped the last tear from her face and opened the door to the dorm room she was in. Not caring if anyone saw her stomach or beet-red face, she sat down and put her bag on an unoccupied bed, as a teacher came in and placed a wheeled crib in the room.The female teacher left as soon as the teacher came and while sighing, Lucy began to look at the crib placed near her bed for the upcoming birth of her child in a few months.

"Hello! I'm Natalie, feel free to make yourself at home, if you need anything just ask. Within reason, I doubt I can help you with unpacking anything.” Elaine doubted this as well, but she didn’t voice this to the fair- no Natalie. “Hey, I’m Elaine.” She spoke in a rushed quiet voice. She hated being shy, but there was nothing she could do about it. So she always spoke to strangers, not looking at them, but instead the floor. She had also subdued her usual bright outfit as well, seeing that she didn’t like to attract attention to herself; not on the first day, that is. She gave the fairy a hesitant smile. Might as well warm up to my roommates, she thought. Then she realized she probably appeared to be human, a strange occurrence in this school. She blushed and started to explain herself, “I’m not human.” But she went no further as her foxlike ears and tail appeared, apparently from nowhere.
Elaine blushed an even deeper red and then turned to open the drawer that was hers. All it had was a folded up school uniform, a bit dull and not at all her kind of style, but she could always give it a little something. Maybe cut the sleeves, if that was allowed. She wasn’t exactly worried of getting in trouble, unless it was in front of people. That would put the spotlight on her, something she was extremely uncomfortable with.
But for now she was relatively happy. Her only roommate was a small fairy, barely the size of her face. She didn’t hate people. More of that she was uncomfortable near them. They scared her slightly, but that made perfect sense, seeing as she had lived on the streets for quite some time. Her ears and tails had disappeared, she realized, and now that she was calm and collected she felt more confident.
Elaine put on a genuine smile and, although her gaze still didn’t meet that of the fairy’s, it was an agreeable improvement. “Sorry about that, I’m a bit shy,” She explained “I really don’t like to be near people.” She forced her eyes to look up, but instead of watching Natalie, they wandered to the empty bed. She stood up abruptly.
“We have another roommate?” she asked in alarm. As if in answer to her question the door opend and in came another girl who appeared human as well. Her nails dug into her dresser, leaving faint scratches. Dry tears stained her face, leaving trails down her cheeks. A bulge in the girls stomach and the crib that was wheeled in after signified this woman was going to give birth. Elaine blushed slightly, as she had only watched her mother, a cat, give birth before. She decided it was impolite to mention anything and greeted the girl. “Hi, I’m Elaine. Nice to meet you.”
Her once high spirits had now sunk a bit. Too bad the third roommate wasn’t a fairy.
((OOC: Probably wont be able to post as often now that school is starting... D:))

Looking up, Lucy introduced herself quietly, "I'm Lucy Kirkland, and I'm 16." Then she added, "You can probably tell I'm giving birth soon." Lucy was hoping she wouldn't have to introduce herself, but at least she got it over with quickly. She decided to start unpacking her things she brought, which her baby blanket she had since she arrived at the orphanage and school supplies. Unzipping her bag, she started putting the white and gold striped blanket in the crib after setting the supplies on her dresser.

Natalie was going to reassure her roommate, who was apparently a cat-fox person to Natalie’s slight surprise, that being shy was fine. Before Natalie could form her words the third roommate entered the room, not looking to well either. The third new blonde sat on the other bed as a crib was wheeled into the room, she was pregnant was what the evidence was stacking up to. Elaine greeted the girl and the girl, Lucy, greeted her back. Neither of the girls talked much, sitting there in an awkward silence as Lucy unpacked her things and put a blanket into the crib.

The thought of making tea for the two crossed Natalie’s mind, but quickly was disposed of by logic. To make tea for these two girls would take ages of water transferring using a small cup. She doubted either of them wanted to wait forty minutes for tea, if Natalie was lucky enough a kettle was already on a burner even. Natalie had already unpacked herself; she had assumed the rest of the first little while would be spent getting to known her roommates. Unfortunately Natalie’s roommates were a shy and depressed, ‘Real sensitive Natalie’. Although she still hadn't introduced herself to the new inhabitant at this point it seemed Natalie had forgotten that she hadn't.
Natalie choose to get a glass of water for herself, a real thirst had built up while she had been reading. Grabbing the glass her had brought, with an entire set of fairy sized dining ware, she fluttered over too… ’Do either of you know if the tap water is drinkable?

Elaine smiled at the fairy. She decided right away that she liked her. She was small, considerate, and just… likable. Her stomach rumbled and, glancing at the clock, she realized it was already lunch time. “Do either of you know if the tap water is drinkable?” Natalie piped up.
No she didn’t know. “I’m not sure, but we can go down to the cafeteria and check if they have some water. Shall we go check? That is, if you guys are up to it?” She added hurriedly.
((OOC: That seems like where all the action is! :3 ARRG THIS POST IS TOO SHORT BUT I HAVE TO GET OFF THE COMPUTER!))

Elaine blushed when she realized how pushy she sounded. Lucy hadn’t even finished unpacking had she? And Natalie was too small to handle the huge food anyway. Elaine’s ears threatened to appear, so she turned like the scared cat she was and fled the room. Great start, El. And now you have to get through the year living with them.
Elaine headed to the entrance of the school. She needed somewhere secluded where she could let her ears and tail spring free. She hated when they did in public. She was ashamed of her whole being, not a human, not a cat. So where could she be? The people shunned her, her fellow felines shunned her. She just didn’t belong.
Elaine had fully intended to head straight out the door, but her way was blocked with suit cases and a small black cat. Her demeanor brightened when she saw the animal. She crouched down to pet its sleek looking fur. The cat’s paw shot out and raked its claws down her arm. She jerked back a little, surprised by the sudden aggressive act. Still she reached out again until her hand was level with its nose. She let it smell her and then slowly moved her arm towards its head.
The cat’s fur was not at all as silky as she assumed it would be. In fact, it was actually soft and pleasurable to touch. A smile lit up her face as it started to purr quietly. She gave a small laugh and continued to stroke the small being.

Natalie felt horrible as Elaine rushed out of the room, here she was sitting thinking in her own little world and making other people feel terrible. Natalie probably would’ve refused the offer anyway, she hated going through those crowded halls, and a meal would feed her for weeks. Sitting there thinking how to word her refusal for… well too long it seemed. Natalie was about to rush out the door to apologize for being inconsiderate, flying up the door knob and grasping the knob. Natalie always hated human doors, the force it took to turn and pull back one those beasts was a great burden.
As the door slowly was pulled back by the force of the fluttering fairy she flew around the wooden mass to look outside it. The sudden realization of how unlikely she would be to find Elaine in these crowded halls was enough to re-surface the fear of being smashed by a careless passerby. Soaring away from the open door back to her bed. Natalie again began to realise why fairies tend to not go to this school and stay in their own cultural area. Not that she cared what other fairies did; personally she liked larger humanoids more. Sitting on her bed Natalie decided to wait for Elaine to come back to apologize, and she remembered she was still thirsty…

Milo stared at the girl for a moment, not sure what to say. He was always the awkward one when it came to talking to women of any kind especially impressive women like Sera. She seemed to radiate....something, he couldn't put his finger on what it was. Power? Evil? Strength? His ear flicked slightly and he finally opened his mouth to speak directly to her when she mention she'd found him and didn't want anything to happened to him. "He's upset with me, he ran off cause I almost hurt him."

Milo blushed and his eyes widened. "N-not on purpose! I tripped and....my suitcase is heavy...."
He trailed off and looked away. His eyes fell on the wolf. He wondered if it was thinking of him as a delicious meal or something. Look at those big paws....those could easily pin a guy like me down.... He swallowed and looked back at Sera.

"Um......I'm Milo." He said quietly His tail swept low over the ground nervously. Jon mewled and finally decided to forgive Milo for nearly falling on him. He wandered leisurely back to his dear Milo and purred nuzzling against his shin.

Elaine sensed, rather than heard, another cat not too far off. She stood, much to the animal before her displeasure, and wandered off to find the other one. She didn’t have a very long way to go, however, when she found the source of the mewling. Surprisingly it came with an intimidating girl and a dark haired boy. This boy was much like Elaine, ears and tail attached to his body. She wondered if they were permanent or if they pooped out at peaks of emotion.
A sense of excitement rose up in Elaine’s stomach. So far, she hadn’t seen any others like herself. She hadn’t had a chance to have much contact with the world of “unique” creatures, so she wasn’t sure exactly what species the boy and her would count as. She considered letting her ears free, but rejected the idea when she remembered the silver haired girl. She shrank back and stayed quiet, deciding one of them could make the first move.

One of Milo's large black cat ears turned towards the sound of Elaine's movement behind him. He turned to look at her and he twitched his nose slightly catching her scent faintly. He was puzzled. She smelled....strangely like him but.....different. Could she possibly be what he was? No.....she doesn't have the ears or the tail... He frowned slightly. "Um.....Hi."

Jon's ears perked up and he padded lightly over to her and circled around her, nose working just as curiously as Milo felt at the moment. Jon mewled and pawwed at her, sitting back on his hind legs. Jon looked at Milo as if he where trying to get his attention. Milo tilted his head. He could understand his gestures of familiarity. Jon thought she was the same as well but..... She probably just likes cats. Cat people smell similar too. She probably has tons of them at home. "I um......I was just talking...to Sera here...My name is Milo....I'm ah....new here."

Milo looked down blushing lightly. Now there where two girls there. And intimidating looking one and a shy looking one. Milo was out of his league. He needed to go and fetch Max and his bags. "I ah....actually. I need to go get my bag. Max is watching it for me...." He said looking between the two girls. He started back towards the entrance hall to retrieve his suit case.

Elaine blushed a little when the cat started circling her. She wasn't sure if this signaled that the cat knew what she was, or if he was just interested in her. When Milo started down the hall, she stepped lightly in his direction, following him from a considerable distance. When they reached the entry way, Elaine realized that it would be considered weird for her to be following him. But she couldn't keep away. She was like a lost cat following someone home.
"Sorry, I was just curious. I mean you, and the cats and all, and I really have never seen another one." She started mumbling at the end, her words blurring together as her voice got quieter and faster. She was vaguely aware that she was making no sense, but she said it anyway. She wanted to make this stranger understand that she too had the heritage of a cat. Yet she couldn't word it. She felt like a pathetic whelp.
"Ah, I'm Elaine, by the way." At least she could still introduce herself.

Milo blinked and looked her up and down once. "Another one?....I'm....not sure what you mean by that."
He continued down the hall with her following and they arrived back where he'd put his enormous overstuffed suitcase. Max mewled, happy to see Milo back and leapt onto his shoulder when he bent down to grab the handle of the suitcase. He strained once more to lift the thing and walked past Elaine a few paces before he had to put it down again. He leaned on the suitcase and looked at her. "Hold on..you're......you're not a neko....are you? You....well you can't be you don't have the ears and the.....er.....tail."

He swished his own tail and it curled at the tip. He looked her over once more as if he'd expected perhaps he'd missed it when he looked the first time. He blinked and gave an awkward smile. "Nice to meet you Elaine."

Aaiden left the room. He couldn't stand being there alone anymore. He could almost feel the Nothing swallowing him back up. Besides he couldn't kill Simon and that bitch from there. Aaiden stretched magnificently and wandered down the hall, looking for a place where he could be still and observe his fellow students until he was prepared to take the next step. Aaiden hesitated on a stair well that faced an enormous window and narrowed his eyes. That angel boy, Ben was out there doing something with another student. He smiled a small suspicious looking smile, his eyes cold and empty of emotion. He continued walking down the stairs, passing Milo and his new friend and the entrance to the Cafeteria. He paused a moment to glance inside to see what Simon and his bitch where up to, he saw them sitting together conversing and smirked. None of their physical strength with have anything on him soon enough. He'd have them at his mercy soon. He continued on and slipped out of a nearby door without making a sound. He put his hands in his pockets and pretended to be taking a leisurely stroll around the yards, exploring the beautiful landscape. Out there in the sun Aaiden's aura seemed diminished in the bright glory of daylight. He almost appeared as a normal human save for his constantly slightly amused expression and his shifty eyes. He kept his ears open to what was going on with the Ben boy and Ciel and sped his walk into a leisurely jog.

"Hold on. You’re......you're not a Neko....are you? You....well you can't be you don't have the ears and the.....err.....tail." Elaine blinked in surprise, momentarily stopped in her babbling. Milo did not know what she was? Ah, but that was to be expected, seeing as she looked human. She concentrated hard, focusing on one emotion, specifically embarrassment, until it was at its peak. Although her face was flushed and pink now, her ears and tails had made an appearance.
“I-is that better?” Her tail swished around her legs, tickling her thighs. It had been a while since she had let this form out for more than a minute or so. It was slightly awkward. Elaine twirled her hair absentmindedly and spoke once more, “Sorry for following you, I was a bit curious.”
How many more times would she have to apologize today?

Milo's eyes widened slightly in surprise. "I...no it's....fine. I've....never actually met another like me...I didn't know you could hide them..."
Milo became curious. He himself couldn't hide his ears and tail and oh did he wish he could have in the past. The image of the kids pointing at his ears, pulling on them to see if they where real and making jokes. "They're really attached to him! What a freak!" Milo winced at the memory and looked away for a moment. He didn't want her to think she'd hurt him somehow. He'd often daydreamed about what he'd do had he met another like him, how great it would be, but now that he had he had no idea what to say. "Ah....d'you want to help me get this suitcase up the stairs to my room? Then we can like.....hang out a little...I suppose."

Jon mewled and pawwed at Max's tail. Max turned around on Milo's shoulder and reached down his back swatting at Jon's head. Milo chuckled. "And maybe we can relax outside. The sun is brilliant today."


Aaiden came to a stop after doing several laps. Sweat beaded his forehead and dampened his T-shirt, he bent over leaning on his knees trying to catch his breath. He then wiped the sweat off with the back of his hand and looked up at Ben and Ciel, hearing her distress from where he was Looks like he's scaring her off.....Let's play the good friend shall we? He stood and walked over to where they where sitting.

"Is he bothering you, miss?" He asked with a smooth, concerned tone, brow furrowed at Ben. "Hey why don't you leave 'er alone, obviously you're causing the poor girl distress..."

"Ah....d'you want to help me get this suitcase up the stairs to my room? Then we can like.....hang out a little...I suppose." Elaine smiled when she heard this. Perhaps her first day wouldn't be so bad. And it wasnt that big of a deal that she had run out on her roommates. She would just apologize later. After all, she seemed to be doing that alot lately. "Sure," she only hesitated for a fraction of a second, wondering why Milo had flinched but dismissed it as her imagination.
When he mentioned the sun Elaine automatically started a low barely audible rumble in the back of her throat. She stopped only when she realized she was purring, attempted to pass the purr off as a cough, and answered, "The sun sounds nice, and we can go round back if you want. It's pretty quiet there on most days." She smiled again and headed over to help Milo with the suit case. Although she had become slightly attached to this stranger, she tried to keep her distance. In the past the few people she had come in contact with found it wierd when she started touching them. And there was that one case when she had been in heat and rubbed against strangers in the street... Yeah, Elaine really didnt think he'd like that.

Aaiden frowned, as she shouted at him. "Hey I was just trying to help out here. God forbid I actually do something nice for someone." He said sourly. "It looked like he was trying to harass you. I'm sorry."
Aaiden shrugged and scratched the back of his head, still wearing a hurt expression on his face. He turned away and only when his back was turned to her did he crack a crafty grin at his small success. He walked back towards the Academy building hoping to find the showers in this place. He was all sorts of sweaty and worn out. It seems that something interesting is between those two. I'll need to keep an eye on that.... He thought to himself as he strolled though the midday sun.


Milo smiled awkwardly at Elaine. She wasn't half bad for a girl. "The back sounds like a great idea. I wonder if they'll let us bring food out there." He murmured just as his stomach growled. He blushed and took one side of the suitcase, lifting it with Elaine they made careful procession up the stairs. Jon took advantage of their hard work and leapt on top of the suitcase, proceeding to lick himself. Max took residence on Milo's head between his ears. "I wonder if they have salmon. I love salmon. Sweet juicy honeyed salmon." Milo's eyes glistened with desire. "And a glass of milk."

Milo's tail swished back and forth with excitement. The two of them got to where the dorm rooms are and Milo put the suitcase down for a moment to check his paper. "Room number.........210. Hmmh...Oh! There it is! Just three down from here."
