A fight? Already? Avery turned up his wrist to glance at his watch. It hasn't even been 10 minutes yet! These Beacon guys really are rough around the edges. Not even the Vacuan and Mistrali were doing anything of the sort, he thought, completely ignoring the fact that he was also a part of a band of bandits and he had just attempted at causing a minor disruption. Sigurd's comment about dueling certainly stung, but he knew it also had some truth in it based on some of his peers. Given this, he briefly wondered if he should get himself involved but decided to sit back and let them resolve their own issues, and they seemed to be doing fine...-ish by the looks of it.


It would be a lie to say that Airi wasn't disappointed that the magician had decided to remove himself from the stage so quickly, especially for something as trivial as a friendly fight. But she supposed that that was what everyone here was for, after all, so it couldn't be helped. Well, at least Sovereign...was still here; she never thought that she'd think such a thing. Still, at least she could keep a better eye on him now that Galileo was of the stage..

"... This place is a madhouse..." Sherwood says aloud as the Magician and ruffians head outside. All throughout their exchange Sherwood's brow rose, an subtle yet quite clear expression of his amazement. And not the good kind of amazement. "Dust help me I don't end up on a team with those guys..." He mutters as he turns back to the boards. Despite the glowing opportunity to take missions despite being students, not many seem to be looking at them. A few dedicated people had to be better than the chaotic events going around the rest of room.

With that decision in mind, Sherwood heads up to the closest observers of the boards, a girl with long blonde hair next to a boy with different colored irises and black hair. " X'cuse me. Either of you happen to know if brand new students can work this missions? My figuring is you need a team before you can officially take missions, but... Can't hurt to be sure." He says with a small wave.

The stage had become significantly less interesting since the cross-dressing magician left. Mint didn't want to be rude to the Atlesian still left on stage, but she really would've preferred to go somewhere else, maybe take a mission from the board. She looked around her to see that nobody was really paying attention to the stage anymore, and guiltily returned the card. "I'm sorry, but I should get going. I'm sure your trick was really cool though!" She smiled and walked backwards a few steps before turning around and briskly walking toward the mission boards.

[NotSurprised]

Sovereign frowned, as he watch his magician friend go away AND audience disappear. Now it wasn't any fun, since there was no one watching! At least he made a killing out of it. Subtly using his semblance for a second, he flicked the deck back into position. With a brief smirk, Sovereign quickly runs through the deck through complex cuts and shuffles to pass the time.

"It's a shame the other magician left, he looked like quite a nice fellow." He wasn't salty at all! It would be a lie to say that he was slightly salty. Sovereign was just simply a little mad about the other magician's performance being interrupted for a fight. Fights aren't fun! On the other hand...

Sovereign expertly puts away the deck with a flourish and it seems like it's nowhere at all in any of the pockets Atlesian Uniforms provided. He pulls out a wallet, then the wallet's ID card as he reads it aloud to himself, "This belongs to one... Austin? Huh, no last name."

As if he was saying "What can you do?", Sovereign chuckles as he remembered how he bumped into a student on the way to the stage and swiped their wallet. He chucks out the wallet that still had a few lien in it and left it behind on the ground

With a grin, Sovereign quickly started to walk away  and made sure no one was looking before stealthily checking the lien he stole from the poor bastard that he was going to use for the trick. After a few seconds, he found that there was about 50 lien. Not so bad for a steal!

... Stealing was fun.

Until Sovereign happened to pretty much run into Airi. Uh oh. With a slightly uneasy grin (you never know with Avery's friends, he's such a downer), he quickly stashes the lien away before doing a shaky wave and flirtatious smile.

"U-Uh... Hiya!"

[Evilparsnips]

"Huh, what do you know!" Yngvarr muttered, surprised to find the strange person wasn't lying about his gender. He stood for a while in his thoughts before he realised the others had begun leaving. He quickly darted after them, making his way through the crowds that were now watching him.

Airi crossed her arms and stared at Sovereign. "I can't believe you. Well I can, but really? I hope you weren't planning om doing anything with those two." She might as well have been his mother at this point. She held out her hand. "C'mon, hand it over.." Her voice was stern and authoritative.

Meanwhile, Avery was smiling, internally chuckling as Airi of all people managed to bust Sovereign. It sure made up for the failed magic show.

[NotSurprised]

With a frown at being caught, Sovereign hesitantly reached for where he had stashed the stolen lien. Suddenly, Sovereign was struck with the greatest of ideas! He channeled all his charm into his face, with it amounting to as if Sovereign was a kicked puppy. Sovereign had intended to overwhelm Airi with his charm, after all, he was sure he truly had the cutest of faces!

"P-Please~?"

Hoping that could also serve as a suitable distraction, Sovereign slowly started to inch towards the nearest exit with the cutest expression on his face. He fully intended to book it if Airi didn't fall for it. Sovereign worked hard for it damnit! He deserved to keep the lien that was hard to steal off some poor shmuck.

"Created a platform?" Catalina thought, "He's a senior and he has a similar semblance to me. I could learn a thing or two from him..." Not hesitating, he shouted aloud running where he last saw them walking out, "Mister Galileo, you here? I want to have conversation with you."

(Gonna have to start a thread if I got to him, if only because he's talking to someone else...)

"Come along person calling my name! I'll take after the fight!"

[ArosFarron]

Having arrived a bit late, Liliana saw what was going on and and watched. Even though she was a former pop idol, she had never really seen this show of force before. She scratched her right ear and moved her pink hair from her face. She walked up to the crowd and stood next to a student. "What exactly is going on here?"

[Kaliot]

"Oh no no no no no. That cutesy act isn't going to work on me and," Airi's hand shot out and grabbed Sovereign's arm, "Don't you think about running, either." She had caught on to his game, pointing two fingers at her eyes remind him of what she was in case he'd forgotten. "Let's go."

She dragged Sovereign all the across the room, not the authorities but to Avery; Atlas' reputation was at stake, after all, and she figured it'd be best to keep it on the low. "Your brother picked up a wallet. Get it and make sure he doesn't pull any other stunts." She made sure to stay as hush as possible. "[color=#3E5AB]I'll be back.[/color]" With that, she disappeared into the crowd.


As soon as Avery was sure she was gone, he said, "All you were supposed to do was entertain the people and instead you got caught by Airi of all people. She's relentless if you haven't figured it out already." He placed a hand on his chin as he thought of how they should proceed. "All she cares about is the wallet. If we just leave it here on the ground, she probably won't be bothered to come after us."

[Siuwa]

"Yes! Exactly what I wanted. This is gonna be fun." Catalina rushed to catch up to them.
