Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Rip walks in with the rest of Team Kaiser, grabbing one of the notebooks and taking a seat. He marks his name on the inside cover before turning his attention to Professor Rokoran, though he remains silent at the instructor's prompt, considering that he's quite aware of his Aura. He looks forward to getting this class underway; even if they don't make much progress in this, their first meeting, he has a feeling that future engagements will prove highly productive.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Getting a detailed map of Aurum's aura, essentially his soul, is a task that'd have most anyone retching all over the ground or wincing in pain or horror. There's a whole bunch of nasty emotions constantly bubbling under Aurum's skin... Hate, Anger, Jealousy, Depression, Loneliness, all bundled up by an intense drive to cause pain and rule over others... All these terrible emotions are kept underneath a thick layer of cold-blooded detachment. Aurum is literally layers of hate bundled in an uncaring merciless mindset, topped off with no small amount of malicious sadistic intent... It's frightening, and certainly sickening. Right now, however, Aurum is gleeful. Which, actually, might be even more sickening. He appears to be completely at peace. Better than that actually. He'd be whistling if he wasn't required to be silent to be allowed to watch. He appears to be thinking about a few things that can be easily detected due to his weak aura. Currently he's thinking of having a conversation with Caelynn later, and his thoughts are on the continuation of experimentation upon himself regarding the magnetic metal he created... Of how sweet the scent of copper crimson would smell before all was replaced with the feeling of power. He was willing to slice himself to bits, all for power over others.
It's a twisted thing. A possible weakness. If his aura was music, it'd be this...

Mogrym takes a look at the mic in hand, and raises his metal limb to grab at the mic, his sharp cold fingers possibly thoroughly unpleasant against Hameth's skin. He pockets the device before removing the pistol from his coat, and setting it on the table with a bit more roughness than necessary. Ash you should be. You shpoke out of turn and undermined my lesshon, caushing the othersh to shimply follow your wordsh. I expect reshpect from a shtudent. Do you undershtand? Apology accepted.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Aurum looks up from his papers and speaks, giving off an obviously fake smile. I am simply assessing the students in this class. I need to know the strengths of the students seeing as I am to build and provide suitably challenging mechanical Grimm to train said students. After all, it is my job. Go ahead and go back to yours, I won't interrupt. Pay no notice to me. I've permission and all. He glances back down to write at the papers, not really caring for a response.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
"You can't honestly think she ever held that against you..."
Barlowe watched her leave. He just couldn't win with that one. He'd gone toe to toe with some of the nastiest Grimm in the books with little more than his fists and a smile, but Zira knew how to shut him down like nobody else. He was absolutely powerless against her.
Ah, well. It could be worse. If she was going to focus on anything from that conversation, her parting words with Rayne were the least of his worries. If he was lucky, she would just have to make peace with it and move on. Then she wouldn't have to get mixed up in the rest of it.
He could hope, at least.Spoiler: My inventory:

The Master of Transformation is remaining quiet, not out of any desire to be unheard, but because the pain from his foot eats words.
It is at least bandaged, so that was something he was able to swallow his pride over remaining stoic in the face of injuries about.My Homestuck role is Thane of Space of the Land of Insanity and Frogs.
The Malkavians would be proud.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
[Rokoran's Lesson]
It makes sense to Rip that Aurum has infiltrated their class, but it surprises him that he didn't bother to send someone else to do the job instead. He did notice someone unfamiliar in the room before he had taken his seat, but he had simply written it off as another student he hadn't met yet. The boy is clearly two steps ahead of him in many regards; the archer would probably just embarrass himself trying to get the drop on him. Rather than try to make a scene of it, he minds his own business and waits for the actual lesson to begin...
Rip facepalms quietly at Kaden's outburst. (Please stop trying to draw his attention,) he thinks to himself, wishing he could say it aloud. (We've already had enough trouble without him looking for new ways to kill us...)Last edited by ImpSyndrome; 2014-01-22 at 05:07 PM.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Rokoran's Lesson
Kedra considered the question as she grabbed the notebook. Was she supposed to answer affirmative for herself, or was she supposed to answer for the entire class? Was it just to ask if SHE was awakened or awakened enough to tell if everyone is too? Uuugh, he probably means the former. Just write down that you are awakened, Mogrym's lesson is just making you paranoid.
Then she saw Aurum.
"Oh come on..."
She muttered to herself.
"First the stupid scarred vet teacher with a dogma to throw around, and now the return of Tuxboy. Worst. First. Day. EVER."
She continues muttering darkly as she sits down and begins writing, trying to ignore Aurum's existence.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Rokoran's classroom
Are you now? Let's try breakfast again, shall we?
Hameth shifts his grip on the meat-puppet of Aurum's soul, searching for intentions, actions.
Spoiler: OOC:Hameth is specifically looking for "what Aurum is writing." Privacy? What's that?
Mogrym's office
Hameth shudders as the fingers scrape his palm, shadows of their implantation flickering across his memory. His face falls. I know that, sir. I... He sighs. I didn't mean for it to happen like that, but I asked about a highly painful memory without regard to context or consequences. I set off the Dust-keg brewing there and you paid the price. It won't happen again. He sneaks a glance up at the professor's scarred face, focusing on the organic eye. Thank you for listening. Feeling dismissed, he turns toward the door. At the door, however, he turns back, mouth working as though trying to spit something out. Kaden and Rip agree with you, sir. I heard them talking to their teams on my way over. And for what it's worth, so do I. He turns and leaves before his nerves get the better of him.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Aurum actually seems to look up and seriously pay attention to the question. Was fun... a good sign? Or did that mean the monsters were too easy? Hmm. He wasn't sure, but he was here for a reason. Though he probably shouldn't interrupt the lesson any further, it was Rokoran's time. As such, he very quietly responds. It is conceivable. Allocate with me after your classes. Perhaps you can offer suggestions, and if you're respectful about it, perhaps I may even consider your injunction.
Aurum will effectively ignore her as well, just raising an eyebrow and jotting something down quickly.
His intentions are quite simple at the moment. He's filling out Personality Assesment papers. On them he has a plethora of information dug up relating to each student and his or her family. Connections, "Pressure Points", Sexual Preferences, Opinion on Faunus, Possibly Blackmail Info. All that sort of thing. There's.... quite a lot of stuff written down already, but currently he's working on Kedra. He's currently writing in his beautifully spidery cursive, "Weaknesses: Temper, Lack of Judgement, "Hero" Complex, Insubordination, Bad Attitude, Strategic Incompetence." He has Strengths written by that, and currently there's, "Strengths: Possible Hunter Connections, Physical Prowess, Natural Leader, Likable." It's rather strange stuff, but it IS Aurum writing it.
---
Mogrym listens to the boy, his sour mood slightly improved. I'm impresshed by how you're handling thish. From what I shaw of you, I hardly figgered ye the type to apologize, nor the type with the ballsh big enough to confront me alone. That'sh admirable. But if you get yershelf in trouble again, there will be conshequencesh. He does take the information provided to heart, and will proceed to sit there and mull it all over...

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Aurum is obviously not about to move. Your permission is irrelevant, sir. It is a requirement that I am to asses all students for their skills and feats in all areas. Combat, Aura, or otherwise. If you have a problem with me doing my job, write a formal complaint or something. Now PLEASE continue your lessons and pay me no notice. I wouldn't want to distract your younglings. He goes back to writing, certainly frustrated.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Rokoran's classroom
Hameth starts copying down Aurum's notes, to be delivered to their targets later. Looking up, he decides to roll the dice once more. It's not like he's hurting anyone, yet. If he doesn't interfere with your job, I see no reason why he can't be allowed to do his. Still furiously writing, he scribbles "Aurum's notes" across the top of the page, in case of onlookers.
Mogrym's office
Hameth nods in agreement. I broke things, in that class. The least I can do is try and fix it. He heads off towards Rokoran's, confident that a sort of peace between the two of them had been established.
Spoiler: OOC:And scene!

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Kedra's eyes widened then narrowed. She mentally noted to act as if Faunus Girl Fancy didn't exist tonight. Then her mind began working: If he is assessing their strengths and weaknesses, it meant that she could not let him know about how her Aura actually works. It would be too easy for him to steal her armor or to go for her when she is vulnerable. Mogrym was one thing but Aurum entirely another. Mogrym has rules, Aurum doesn't. Aurum cares not for philosophy and will only see it as a weakness. Aurum would be entirely willing to kill her and all that she cared about if it meant winning.
She needed to come up with a plan fast. or he would devise a way for everyone within this classroom to die. and she needed to do it without him catching on.
Question is.....what plan? He had permission and everything...

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Meanwhile, Kaden is happily scribbling down notes under the heading Things I Want To Fihgt. The list is quite long, albeit poorly spelled.
If Rokoran attempts to catch her not paying attention, however, she will recite any part of his lecture verbatim. It may not look like it, but she is paying attention.Spoiler: My inventory:

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
"In that case, I will submit a report in full to you. I asked you nicely, now I'm telling you: get out."
He snaps his fingers. Aurum will be lifted up and chucked out of the door, which slams and locks behind him, unless he has some way to counteract Rokoran's Aura powers.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Hameth is torn between amusement at the ballistic tycoon and annoyance that his source of intel has been bodily ejected from the room. He sighs lightly, completes the sentence, then tears off the page, folds it, marks it "For Kedra's eyes only, from Hameth" and stows it in a pocket.

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
Well, Aurum has just a few sentences left before he's apparently bodily harmed. He seems a bit gleeful, as if he's somewhat enjoying taunting the professor, though really he'd just like to be left to his work. This needed to get done. Oh no, sir, you need not submit any sort of report to me. I have little power over you. However, I aquired my permission from The Headmaster, your higher-up. He won't like it that a professor of his is not letting others working for the greater good of the students and hunters here. So, kindly rethink your attitude befo- Well, with that, Rokoran effectively attacks and throws a disarmed and defenseless fifteen year old boy out the door and onto the stone ground outside.
Aurum lands outside on his arm in an awkward position. He'd grabbed his papers and held on tight with his left arm, but he'd landed on his right. The boy had fallen just right so that the arm he fell on is now twisted apart. A small bit of bone can be seen pecking through the skin. Aurum cries out in pain, but the door has already locked and closed behind him. He grits his teeth and fights back tears, formulating his next move. The Professor had used his own personal malice against Aurum to first stop him from doing his job, then attack and viciously injure and degrade the boy to the point where his arm was broken and the boy was in intense pain. Oh yes, that'll sound great to the faculties ears... Just a few little strings need to be pulled and I can make this very useful... He thinks to himself, before he tries to stand and groans in pain again. Eventually, the boy gets up and hugs his broken right arm tight. He'll pay a very quick visit to his room, where he deposits the writings, before moving off to the infirmary, looking as sorry and in as much pain as humanly possible....

Re: [RWBY] Sanctum IC Two: Cool For School.
[Rokoran's
SideshowLesson]
Rip watches in disbelief at the events unfolding in the classroom. (Haven't these people ever heard of politics,) he wonders incredulously as Aurum is hurtled from the room. (If he takes this public, it won't matter if Rokoran's in the right or not: the Academy will be labeled an institution of maniacs and barbarians, and the headmaster will have no choice but to place the responsibility on him. He could be kicked out of the school or excommunicated from the Huntsmen, if not worse...)
Suddenly, a sound issues forth from one of the Shades in the class. Is he applauding Rokoran? Indeed he is, and several others soon join in, their claps resounding triumphantly at his deposition of Aurum. Rip would love to join in, but he can't possibly condone those actions, justified though they might have been; knowing that Mortemus is manipulative and cruel, the sniper believes that Rokoran may have just condemned himself and possibly all of Sanctum...
((New thread coming soon!!))
