Mingle Post! Our First Class Post~ [Action]

[netherworld_lolitics]

[You've all arrived by your own will or have been hustled into a classroom by a flock of stampeding prinnies. You've been in the room for a few minutes before your first teacher shows up, fashionably late~]

[It's some kind of effeminate flower person: Senator Trap!]

... why are you all here? This is class. You don't belong here.

[Sigh] Making my life hard.

Alright, whatever. I'm Senator Trap and this class is "Zen-Not-Giving-A-Care." I'd have prepared a lesson plan, but it turns out I'm already a master at not caring. So I guess that means you're all going to have to learn from my example as I spend the next hour and a half playing Tetris. [pulls out his myPhone.]

Of course, if you actually care about learning, you're already failing this class.

[Well, if this was a class about not caring, then Minato is going to get up to leave and take a look around the campus.]

[He looks botherable. Bother him?]

[cutestsuperweapon]

[Bother? No. In fact, Ifurita hadn't seen him. She was just floating and sweeping the floor innocently.

She hadn't seen him, which meant she didn't notice him, which meant she was about to collide into him about, oh, now!]

[foolish_seal]

[thunk. Minato takes a step back after the impact, to see what hit him. Least it wasn't at high-speed.]

Ah... Sorry.

[cutestsuperweapon]

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hit you!

[She sure was more surprised as he was, and flailed her arms.

While still carrying a broom, which was now drawing rather wide arcs through the air.]

[foolish_seal]

[Ookay, keeping an eye on that broom now so it doesn't hit him...]

No harm done.

...You a janitor?

[cutestsuperweapon]

No, actually I'm an ancient superweapon on a mission of evil, but I don't know where the thing I am supposed to conquer is! I think it was a city, but it might be a hamlet or a river instead. And I don't even know what a hamlet is!

[foolish_seal]

Ah.

[He's far too jaded to the likes of these things to be surprised.]

A hamlet's just a really small town.

[cutestsuperweapon]

Why would I conquer one of these? That seems odd. Maybe I got the wrong map again...

[She was quite glad for his help, though.]

[foolish_seal]

It's just as best you don't bother. No matter what you try to take over there's always a hero or something that makes things difficult.

[cutestsuperweapon]

Oh, I know, and I keep warning them not to come because they always make things so troublesome and then I accidentally blow them up even though I warn them. They just don't listen and tornado me and stuff like that.

[foolish_seal]

That's usually because they would rather you not do things like that.

[cutestsuperweapon]

Well I don't really do anything bad nad, like when I am told to destroy a city I tell everyone to leave first, because well, it'd be bad if anyone got hurt. And I'm not bad, I'm evil.

[foolish_seal]

And what if they don't want the city destroyed?

[thousand_curses]

[On the way out the door you can't help but pass one of the new arrivals who decided to contribute to the lesson by lounging against a wall and looking smug.]

First moment in class and someone's already on their iPad or whatever. Kids these days...

[foolish_seal]

[Well if they're gonna be like that... Have an unimpressed look in return.]

Tell that to the teacher.

[thousand_curses]

True, I guess it fits the lesson. Still, isn't it hard to hear what's going on around you with those earphones?

[foolish_seal]

Nah, not really.

[He just doesn't have them turned up too much.]

[thousand_curses]

You want any company if you're heading out? I think those penguins that shoved us in here had knives...

[foolish_seal]

I can handle myself, but I won't stop you if you want to come.

[thousand_curses]

[This earns an appraising look.]

If you say so. It's best to travel in groups, is all.

No telling what could happen if someone got lost, I mean.

[foolish_seal]

Whatever.

Name's Minato, by the way.

[thousand_curses]

[The demons running this place had bought the "Gas Station Attendant" gag, a fact that could be blamed on confusing forms if pressed, but this kid knew a lot more than they did - you could almost feel it coming off of him. Very interesting. Still, not worth inventing too much when a little bit would do.]

Satou.

[He(?) extends a hand for a handshake.]

[foolish_seal]

[Minato takes it with a small nod. Nothing can go wrong from this, right?]

[thousand_curses]

[Fortunately, "Satou" has the best pokerface in the universe, because behind it is utter shock at the power on the other end of this handshake.]

[This power was the Universe, wasn't it? How could he possibly...well, Nyx's presence warped time, but he shouldn't be here. He was...dangerous, like the other one was in the end. This was a problem, and she can't decide if it's a problem for her or for humanity.]

[All that, of course, goes completely unexpressed.]

Let's get exploring, then.

[foolish_seal]

[Minato, meanwhile, is none the wiser. He might have been able to get a sense of 'something's not right' were he more on guard, but that wasn't the case.]

Sure.

[And so he heads out the door. Doen't have a clue where to go first, but they'd probably find something if they just started walking.]
