Where the heck am I?!
Who: Ryoga Hibiki, Open
Where: All over the god damn campus
What: Not all those who wander are lost, but he sure is
When: Early July.
A. July 4-7, Lumiere, Faculty Dorms.
[A teenager with a spotted bandana and a bamboo umbrella slung over his shoulders can be seen wandering the halls, stopping anyone who passes by]
Excuse me, is this the way to Aube 303?
B. Cross Fountain, quad

[A tiny black piglet squeaks and snorts wading before leaping right out of the fountain, shaking off the excess water from it's body]
Kwee?!
[The piglet starts running, trying to to somewhere - with hot water preferably, but having bad luck in actually avoiding anyone]
C. Legionnaire's
[This place, Ryoga somehow manages to find with little trouble. The young man can be found do quite a lot of weight training - with the maximum amount of weights on the barbells that he seem to be using as regular old dumbbells, doing bicep curls, or he's seen with a sandbag doing some kicks and punches, seeming to be practicing his aim more than anything else]
Hah...! Ngh!
[Between training, he's willing to talk, but if someone calls to him, he'll get distracted enough to get smacked in the face by the sandbag]

Re: A
Yes. I just got here, and need to find my room.
[It's a little more clear now that he has a rather thick Japanese accent]
no subject
I can lead you there, if you'd like. Welcome to Daybreak, by the way. I'm Lia!
no subject
[He follows close]
...How long have you been here?
B!
[Oh dear.
That is one very panicked looking piggy. And a very panicked feeling piggy for that matter. While Ryoga is running around all adorable pig-ly-like, Reira will slowly start to follow.
It certainly seems like a smarter than normal pig, so it's probably a Cool Pig, she's determined.]
...Are you looking for something?
[Maybe the pig lost something. This makes sense, to Reira.]
no subject
[She leads the way, a bounce in her step. She glances back to Ryoga with a sheepish smile.]
Not long, admittedly, just for about a month now. Just in time for finals... I can at least answer some questions you might have, though!
no subject
[The piglet's ears perked up at being addressed, starting as his head swivels towards Reira, snout twitching]
Bwee?
[Time to act normal, like a normal pig, nothing weird here! Really!]
no subject
Reira tries to seem as safe as possible, partly by crouching down.] Um...don't worry 'piggy'. I'm not going to eat you, there's lots of food in the cafeteria for that. So you're still safe to look for what you're looking for!
...Unless you're just doing other things. [After all, looking was just a guess, made from wandering smart pigs.]
no subject
[Oh he missed finals? A whole semester? Hopefully they won't be mad. spoilers: his parents anticipated this and enrolled him in the fall semester]
How are the teachers here?
no subject
[The snout wiggles, sniffing as he quietly trots towards her to get a better sniff, thinking. Even a small kid could traverse the campus faster than a piglet with tiny little legs]
Oink!
no subject
[Oh? ....Does...the pig want up?
Tentatively, Reira will bring her hands over.] Ummm...
...Should I...carry you?
no subject
[
Are Jailbreak.]... Really, really aren't.
C
What the fuck are you actually doing? Because I'm pretty damn sure barbells aren't something people use to curl. [Of course she's the asshole that would call over from where she is, she gives zero shits about anyone that's not her getting hurt, after all.]
C
She was kind of staring.]
Re: C
Huh? Oh... none of the dumbbells are heavy enough, and the modular dumbbells won't support the larger weights.
Re: C
Nggh-
[He pauses, noticing someone was watching]
Did you need the bench?
no subject
Ah, no! I just...how the hell are your arms not falling off?
no subject
'Cause I gotta say, I could swear there was ways to make these things heavier since we have non-humans all around here.
no subject
[the barbells were loaded up to 400 pounds. His Japanese accent is more pronounce now that he's talking more]
Apparently the heavier weights require a sign off - I did not feel like dealing with it.
no subject
[He pauses slightly, staring at Kohaku for a moment, as if trying to place if he seen that face before as he puts the weights away]
I am sorry, but do you have a sister?
no subject
Wh...what made you bring THAT up?
no subject
Also guessing you're Japanese? Before you try and starting talking that shit with me, I don't know jackshit, just used to hearing the accent. [So many Japanese students here, not to mention family members.]
... Shit, I didn't know that shit required signing off. That's dumb as fucking hell, what the fuck.
no subject
Sorry - you just look like a classmate of mine I had before coming here.
no subject
Did she hurt you?
no subject
She picks a lot of fights with me. Of course she doesn't want to hold back, while I'll get in trouble if I get too carried away.
[And he's got the bruises to prove it. Ryoga kneels to pick up the dropped weights, his physiology seems a little too sturdy, and just the overall sense of a feralness in his features, especially with the longer than average canines]
no subject
[He was curious, and he hopes none of them are too hard]
no subject
Ah. I will remember that... as for what I am. I am a - [He takes a moment to fish the english word out]
'Wereboar'.
no subject
You must be pretty tough to have shrugged all that off.
Also how did you know her?
no subject
Biiii!
no subject
I just got a familiar, so gotta say, your shit is kinda cooler than mine. [Also probably better in design, but that's totally not her fault.]
Uhhh. Name's Jolyne, by the way? I guess?
no subject
[He says the last in a mix of statement of fact and a point of pride as he replaces the weights]
no subject
[Look, he's a city boy and kind of dim to boot, but at introductions he gives a faint bow]
Hibiki Ryoga, nice to meet you, Jolyne.
no subject
[She scratches at one cheek.]
Anything with a practical element to it is great, I think! As much as I like reading, I don't want to spend all my classes staring at books...
no subject
And god, he really is Japanese.]
Was your plan just to do curls or did you have something else in mind? Admittedly, I'm bored as hell as there's only so many laps I can do.
no subject
[Honest curiosity:]
What are you, a werewolf? You look kinda werewolfish.
no subject
And from there, she's already starting to wander.] Okay, which way now!
[This can't possibly end poorly.]
no subject

[He gestures to the heavy and speed bags]

no subject
[He scratches his cheek with a half-shrug]
no subject
Hm. I take it you're a more hand-to-hand type of fighter? [Why is she asking. Stop it.]
no subject
[He folds his arm over his chest, nodding]
I've been learning some Ki attacks as well, still working on them.
no subject
I'm not a martial artist, but hand-to-hand's kinda my jam. If you want something a little more... fun than fucking around with inanimate objects, I've got some free time. 'Sides, with Stone Free here, I hit pretty goddamned hard.
