Week 14: Saturday Afternoon
Greetings everyone!

My name is Ita.  I'm a new student, a bit late to the semester, but I didn't even know Halcyon existed until recently.  Anyway, I'm a born water elemental, and I loooove to cook.  Why are there no cooking classes?  My mom and dad taught me what human schools couldn't until the end of high school, so I decided to come here after I got my degree in culinary arts, and my Aunt Lissa told me about Halcyon.

So, since I'm a bit late, I need notes and such.  I'm in - Magic Use: Water (morning); Magic Use: Energy, Light, Life (mid-morning); Magical Weapons (mid-afternoon); Defense Against Magic (evening).  Any takers?  I can make food for anyone who bites.  Hehe.  Ok, so lame joke, but the food will be good.  And yes, I am totally not below bribery, of the food kind anyway.

[Private to Axel Hecatomb]

Professor Hecatomb,

I understand that you are my guide teacher?  I just wanted to drop a note to say hi.  Do I need to meet with you?  I'm trying to arrange a way to catch up in my classes, so I think I will be good there.

-Ita

PS  What is the proper title to address you by?  I wasn't certain.


[Private to Catalina]

Catalina,

I noticed on the staff page that you are the school's cook?  Is the kitchen open to students?  And why are there no cooking classes?  Is it possible to start a cooking club?  If so, do we need a staff member to supervise?  I have a degree in culinary arts, so cooking really is my life!

Thanks!
Ita

Only missed the first two weeks. But then so did I. Welcome to the school, if its not breaking some form of etiquette for the kid who's been here three days to welcome someone someplace.

Sadly, I don't have any of those classes, but I always enjoy being bribed. Especially with tasty meals of all sorts, though there are lots of vamps and weres, the biting jokes might get you all sorts of nibbles. Good and bad.

I certainly don't think it's out of place. ^_^ At least, I would never think that being friendly is out of place. And, good to hear I'm not the only one who's a new student after the beginning of the semester.

Ha! I did think of that, but I enjoyed my lame joke too much not to post it. And I am not available for nibbling, just to clarify. ^_~

Oh! What's your name, and if it's not rude to ask, are you one of the aforementioned vamps or weres? I've never lived around supernaturals other than my parents.

There seems to be a deluge of new students here within the past few weeks. It's like the second coming and whatnot. And no, being friendly is never out of place, except when it is.

No nibbling? Well, that just takes the fun out of everything. Everyone should be around to be nibbled on. Makes life much more fun.

No, not a vamp or a were, sorry. I nibble on cute girls for other reasons. Born and true bred demon here. Xander Wilson, pleasure to meet you.

Honestly, I can't say I've ever understood the enjoyment factor, when it comes to cooking. Then again, I was a spoiled child, one who's mother, and grandmother would create a amazing feast, whenever she requested it of them.

Sadly, we do not share any classes, but I will welcome you to Halcyon none the less. I'm Vivian Roth, a vampire.

No worries! Enjoying the end result is no problem in my book.

Thanks for the welcome, Vivian. ^_^

Welcome to the school Ita. I'm Alice. It looks like we have Magic Use: Energy, Light, Life and Defense Against Magic together and I'm perfectly fine with sharing my notes as long as you promise to share yours if I'm ever in need of them. ;)

Of course I will. And Pocky?! I love those little treats! Even though I love to cook, I am a closet junk-food-aholic.

Hello, Ita. I'm Starbuck.

I'll be in your second class, and last quarter I took Water Use, so if you have questions, feel free to ask. We're both in Aquatic, I'm assuming, so I'm sure we'll see each other plenty.

Uh, about me, since you gave a lot of info there... I'm 1/2 water nymph, 1/4 water mage, 1/4 witch (with healing abilities). I was born and raised in Maui. Um, not sure what else. Welcome to Halcyon!

Hey Starbuck! I will probably take you up on that offer. To be honest, I'm not a stellar student. -_-

Wow, that's a mix. Ooo, Maui! That's so cool. Er, hot? Whatever. It's neat! I can only do minor healing, but I'd really like to learn more. It just seems really important to develop that kind of ability, you know?

Thanks for the welcome!

Ita,

I am the school's chef in residence, yes. And yes, the kitchen is open to student usage, the front part of it in particular. You're welcome to use any proteins, produce or other ingredients kept in the open cabinets/refrigerators and any appliances there. Anything not meant for students is locked up, don't worry. As for cooking classes, I couldn't tell you. That's more a question for the higher administration - they decide what classes will be offered. I'd ask them about the cooking club as well, though I don't imagine it'd be difficult to start.

Welcome to campus, by the way.

Thank you so much, Catalina - for the use of the kitchen, and the advice on the club and classes! Not all chefs are willing to share their kitchen.

Welcome to Halcyon, Ita.

I'm Easton, an air mage and resident of Zephyr House. It appears we have Magical Weapons together, I'm sure I have some notes laying about that you're more than welcome to copy and food is my weakness, so bribery is most welcome.

I could go for a practice session of Magical Weapons right now. *steams* Ugh, why do people try to start fights when it is totally unnecessary?

I apologize. You certainly didn't want to walk into that.

Thank you for the warm welcome. What sort of food do wish to be bribed with? ^_^

Hello Ita, I'm Kate. I'm afraid we don't have any classes together, but I thought I'd offer up a few words of welcome anyway.

I'm a gifted human and resident of the House of Fire. As I'm sure you've already heard, much of the kitchen is open for student use, though the food here is quite wonderful. I'm sure you'll enjoy getting settled.

Hello, Kate! Thank you for the welcome!

And, yes, I sent a message to Catalina, the chef here, and she told me about the kitchen.

May I ask what you mean by gifted human? I'm not entirely sure what that entails.

Welcome to Halcyon, Ita. I, unlike everyone else, have nothing particularly clever to say aside from that.

Private to Ita
Don't tell her that I said this because she would be very pissed off at me if she knew I had, but try not to take Cissy too seriously. See, I've known her for a long time, and I know how she is with everyone. She was the same way with me when I first met her. It's like her way of getting to know someone, testing them and seeing what buttons she can push, so as to understand whether or not they're going to mesh well with her. I have to say, you handled yourself quite well, even if you probably don't need to hear it from me to know that. And I know that it's not really any of my business but I don't really want to see her written off as being just some bitch. She's a very sweet girl underneath everything else, and even if it doesn't translate well, I think you passed her test.

Thank you for the welcome, James. No need for a clever saying - a kind welcome is quite enough. ^_^

[Private James]

Thank you, James. I don't particularly like having my buttons tested, even if it leads to a sweet girl later on. However, I think it speaks well of you to want to make sure I know there is more to her. I will try to keep this in mind.

Welcome Ita! I'm Vinnie, a fire mage and a fellow newbie like yourself. Just arrived here last week. I also think that I've got Magical Weapons with you so I can help you with the catching up and stuff if you want.

And I apologize about Cissy. She's my cousin and she can be a huge brat sometimes.. Don't mind her at all.

Thank you for the welcome, and the offer to help. Easton and I are already meeting tomorrow, but I'll check with you if I need any more clarification.

I noticed. And I don't take it personally. I just find it rude.
