[SRP] Memories

[Gee-chan]

Putting aside the failure to answer the third comment (there really was no reasonable answer to that and he knew it), Edward could not help but be slightly intrigued.

Dr. Menson was a well known member of staff in the school for more than one reason. As a history teacher, he was fantastic (although the fact that he seemed to be old enough to have seen much of what he taught first hand was suspected as a reason....jokingly of course), but was notorious for having rather high standard for his students in their academic performance. If even Menson was interested, then she must be good. The other thing he was known for was being a bit of a pervert (the joke being that he refuses to retire until he manages to get a class made completely of attractive girls....this may or may not be true....), meaning the rumours about the new girl's looks may have something behind them as well.

'Perhaps there is a chance she may be different' whispered a little voice in the back of his head, but he quickly dismissed it.

It was at that moment that the door to the classroom opened and someone stepped in. The fact that everything went very quiet caused Edward to look up in curiosity.

Nick looks around curiously as he notices the old woman is gone. He turns to his co-workers. "Her, did you see where that old lady went?" he asks.

[Kumi-chan]

Keith looks around upon hearing the meow. Looking for the cat that he is thinking would be around.

~ Zeke ~

The unexpecting young gang member cries out in surprise as Zeke barges past him. "Hey, get back here!" he calls after him. The ponderous boxer doesn't seem to be that quick on his feet, so Zeke is soon pulling away... But ahead of him there's more people he recognizes. More people from their gang... fighting with some of his own!


~ Lloyd ~

"Hm?" The voice sounds curious. "As I said, I tried the others, and none of them work..." He or she lets the words trail of hopefully...


~ Hal ~

Unfortunately, his coworkers finish their conversation with a laugh, returning to their work. After walking the short distance to the coffee machine, he quickly spots the forgotten cup besides it. Seems it may have been an honest mistake afterall. He also finds a tall brunette drawing a cup from the machine. As she glances in his direction, there's something in her eyes that momentarily takes his breath away...

By the time Hal recovers, the woman approaches him. She's dressed in fairly casual dress, and on closer look is not exactly beautiful. Pretty, but not beautifull. She's too tall, for one, and her smile is lopsided as her big hand offers him a cup (a fresh one), holding one for herself in her other hand.

"Here. I believe this one's yours?" she asks in a soft, fairly low voice. There's something about her that's... almost electrifying. Like something's on the tip of his mental tongue, and needs only a little nudge to become clear.


~ Edward ~

And in walks... Dr. Menson! He takes in the room with her mean, little eyes. They momentarily seem to hover on Edward...
"Alright, people, to your seats! And be quick about it!" He heads to the lectern, and slams a hand down, startling nearly everyone. "We're gonna have a little quiz. Just to see if you're all up to my standards. Which I doubt." The last part was probably meant to be a private comment, but was spoken in the same loud voice as the first part.

[Hint: do not try to take over GM'ing your own character. Bad things happen. Always.]


~ Nick ~

"The old woman? I think I saw her go outside," one of his colleagues replies. She smiles at him sympathetically.


~ Keith ~

His intuition proves right! There's a small, black cat sitting behind a trash can. It looks up at him curiously, with big, sad, kitty eyes. "Mew...?"

[Alissa of Someday]

"Err. . ."

Pausing stupidly, Hal stares at her, not quite sure what it was she reminded him of, and even less sure why he was staring. After a moment too long, he nods abruptly.

"Oh--yes. Thank you. What was your name?"

[Blaze]

Zeke growled as he spotted some of his boys clashing with other gang members. He grabbed one by the scruff of the next and pulled him into an empty alley.

"What the hell is going on?!"

[Shadowmaster]

"Alright, thanks." Nick says as he heads out the door, looking for the old woman, wanting to know why she had left so abruptly.

[Zoey]

Lloyd seems a confused. "Wait... thats the only one that works in your home?!"

[Harri-chan]

"Watch where you're going, jerk", snapped the teenager before lifting her head, eyes widening in suprise, "Oh...", she murmured. There was an awkward silence as she looked up at him before her scowl returned, "Can you blame me for being in a bad mood? I've just had class with Miss Johnson. She's so jealous if me, it's pathetic!", she complained, grabbing the boy's hand. "You can walk me to my next class".

[Jacqueline]

~ Hal ~

"The name's Mariah. Nice to meetcha." She offers a hand, big for a woman.


~ Zeke ~

"Zeke!" the boy cries in surprise. "We thought they got you! Everyone's been looking for you all over!"


~ Nick ~

At the door, he nearly runs into someone. It's the old woman. She's carrying two ice cream cones!
"Oh my~!" Due to the sudden stop, she is about to lose her balance.


~ Lloyd ~

"Err... No, actually, none of them are working. I'm not getting a response from any of them," the voice says.


~ Jessica ~

The boy grins. "Sure, hon." He lays his arm around Jessica's waist and escorts her to the next class. He's taking the scenic route, however.

[Blaze]

"What's going on? Is it a crackdown? A turf war?" Zeke asked, assuming to role of the leader.

[Zoey]

"Huh?!"Thats odd..." replied Lloyd suprised and a bit disturbed. "Then that is a job for an electrician, sir" he tried to say to him politely.

[Shadowmaster]

Nick, upon seeing that the old woman is losing her balance, does his best to keep her from falling. "Sorry about that." he says. "I was just going to see where you disappeared to."
