<font color='#000080'> Quarter: Mia Day: 4 [/B] ooc: This is a public thread, feel free to join Draco is a vampire... Just thought I'd let you know ic: <font color="green">Draco walked into his dormitory, quite happy. Â New dorm, comfy bed, what more could he want? He threw his bag on his bed. "Oy! What a day to be alive..." He fell backwards onto the soft pillows that were placed carefully on the bed. "Aye Red?"</font> <font color="brown">Red wasn't really listening, he was sitting on his own bed with his nose buried in a book entitled 'Janardan, a History'. "Hm? Uh, yeah Drake". A drop of sweat slid down his face, he was still getting used to the fact that his best friend had been turned into a vampire.</font> <font color="green">"Didn't think you were that interested..." Draco stared at the mirrior on the other side of the room from him, where an empty bed had been placed.</font></font>
<font color='#000000'>Saltamus had been in class today, for swimming lessons. The 'oriental pendragon' was good at swimming, but he was even better at drawing. But today one thing was on his mind. His 15th (or 1 500th) hatchday was coming up, in thirteen days no less. And with that, a new dormitory. He could only hope that he ended up with someone that was worth staying with. Walking quickly down the hall, Salty somehow failed to pay attention to where he was headed. Until now that is. Strange... surely I'd be out in the main halls by now. Wait... He looked up to see... Damn. I took a wrong turn. I don't usually do that. Grumbling he sat down with a thwump, enough to alert whoever was there to his presence. He took a notebook from his bag, flipped through it, and took a pencil. Time to practice shading techniques again. He began to sketch the unmistakable outline of a pendragon. Himself, in fact.</font>
<font color='#000080'><font color="pink">Shinra came to the dorm where Draco and Red had been. She barely knocked when the door flew open on its own.</font> <font color="green">Draco just looked at her, then gestured her over to the empty bed. His ears then spun around, facing the exact position of Saltamus. He peeked out of his dorm, to the source of the sound. "You lost?"</font> Shinra and Red just ignored him, they didn't really knowwhat he was doing...</font>
<font color='#000000'>"Guess you could say that. If I don't get enough sleep I'm going to end up taking so many wrong turns that I'll go insane... and I'm mental enough as I am." If anything, Salty didn't seem to pay attention to the fact that Draco's teeth looked rather... unusual. After all, Salty was probably the most unique pendragon around here. Put simply, he resembled the oriental dragons of the now-gone earth, although no-one knew why.</font>
<font color='#000080'><font color="green">"You want to hang in my dorm? The beds are much more comfy than the rock hard floor" He tapped the floor with his hind foot. "Plus a bit quieter..." He could hear the other pendragons chatting in the halls on the other side of the school, way out of earshot of any normal pendragon. He shook his head. "A lot of noise... You may not hear it, but I can... everything that happens in the school... big pain in the neck..."</font></font>
<font color='#000000'>Carefully he placed the notebook back in his bag and looked at Draco. "Thanks; I wouldn't mind that. It's been quite a day of wandering around, avoiding bullies and watching pendragons blink at me just because I'm 'strange'. Pfft." A passing 'dragon snickered at them, and Salty stuck his tongue out. However, upon seeing Draco's fangs, the 'dragon shuddered and continued down the hall. "See what I mean? I'm not different. Just unique."</font>
<font color='#000080'><font color="green">Draco tilts his head back and laughs at the passing pendragon. "Yeah, no one is different. You could laugh at him for being different from you, you could laugh at me for being a vamp, The whole world could laugh at itself! I don't see why people judge those by what they look like... It's just dumb..." He calapsed on his bed and pointed to the fourth empty bed near Red(ooc: I bet the dorms going to be full of empty beds once I am through with it lol) "You can sit there.. Red, what are you doing?"</font> <font color="brown">Red was now looking at his notepad with his eyes skrewed. "I can't think of a new story! Ack..." Red stabbed the book with his pen. "I should interview someone... but who? This is so hard!" He took the front piece of paper on the pad and scrunched it up in a ball and chucked it in his already over flowing trash can.</font> <font color="green">"Maybe you should interview someone you know..." Draco smirked. "Someone with an interesting past..."</font> <font color="brown">"I don't know that many people..." Red blinked, still having no ideas coming to mind.</font> <font color="green">Draco fell off his bed face to the floor. He looked up, very annoyed. "Someone in this room?"</font> <font color="brown">"Well Draco, Shinra ain't that inter-" He was buffeted by a rain pillows thrown by Shinra.</font> <font color="pink"> "HOW AM I NOT INTERESTING??" Her House Nymph, Scala, dove under the bed scared.</font> <font color="green">Draco sighed heavily"</font></font>
<font color='#000000'>"Yeah. Those who weren't able to laugh at me thought I was 'cool' and all that. I couldn't give a vokc for all I care." With a spring, the serpentine 'dragon hopped onto the bed and sat up, once again taking a pencil and notebook. Also, now a sketchbook. While he listened, his pencil seemed to take a life of its own, and soon he had the basic sketched outline of Draco. Then Shinra's yell came. Whoo boy. This could take a while. While he sketched, a thought briefly ran through his mind. A vampdragon? That's something you don't see every day, 'specially in Janardan.</font>
<font color='#000080'><font color="pink">Shinra calmed down. She picked up her own note book and flipped it open, and pen in hand. She started to think of some lyrics for her song. What in the world is going on? I'm feeling like I have done it all wrong. I kneel to the sky I pray for the end tell me tell me tell me tell me why's it got to be this way Shinra wrote down the chorus. That sounds good She looks at Salt, then to Draco I wonder if Draco knows the newcomer is drawing him... "Hey, I'm Shinra. Who are you?" Then she said wih an exagreatted tone "I'm sorry Draco has to be an impolite 'dragon..." She glared at Draco, She knew it was rude to invite someone in without at least giving her own name.</font>
<font color='#000000'>"Shinra? Never heard that name before." He paused, looking up from his drawing. By now he'd already done the eyes and muzzle. It wasn't too surprisng that he was good at drawing. "Yeah, well, he was polite to offer me in here. What can I say? I'd gotten lost again; I don't sleep enough. Oh, and I'm Saltamus. Call me Salty."</font>
<font color='#000080'><font color="pink">"Well, I have't been around for that long. It wasn't much of a surprise that you wouldn't have heard of me. Salty, nice name! You should get a good amount of sleep. You can get sick you know" Her eyes wandered back to her note book. Ok, I have a chorus, I need some verses... Daddy's gone to war and Mommy was taken from me. Don't you see I'm suffering Why can you not see Praise the lord I'm still alive, but why do i feel so dead. She went over the verse in her head a couple of times. Yeah, that sounds right.. But just one little change to the chorus... She ripped out the page she had written her chorus on and re-written it on a new piece of paper along with her first verse. Daddy's gone to war and Mommy was taken from me. Don't you see I'm suffering Oh why can you not see Praise the lord I'm still alive, but why do i feel so dead. What in the world is going on? I'm feeling like I have done it all wrong. I kneel to the sky I pray for the end Oh please can someone tell me why, oh why does it got to be this way Shinra's eyes sparkled as they scanned the page. Perfect! This is going to be great! She hugged her book.</font>
<font color='#000000'>"Well, at least you're not asking if I taste salty, Shinra." He shrugged, then he went back to sketching Draco. Within a few minutes he had done the basic details. Okay... next the finer details, and then the colouring. He remained silent for a while, then looked up. "I haven't been here long, and my hatchday's coming up. And with that, a new dormitory." He shrugged. "I do hope that I don't end up with pendragons that I'd either find really annoying, or who'd bully me. Preferably someone else who's unique. Oh well." He continued to draw.</font>
<font color='#000080'>A teacher dressed in a fine white suit slowly wandering into the dorm hall, where he incounted the loud noises of other 'dragons as they conversed. He shook his head slowly and wandered down the hall, looking up at times over the top of his shades that he wore over his red orbs. Sieben came to a hall that was nearly empty of the students then stopped suddenly as he sensed the presents of another that was like him. But this one was no where near being like him at all. Sieben smirked and one of his over grown canines hang over his bottom lip. Sieben flexed out his boned out wings slowly and strolled down to the opened doorway of the room then peered in at the four 'dragons that resided in it. Upon looking in he tapped his claws against the frame of the door heavily so that he would be noticed by the children. Licking his lips a bit and smiling at the bunch before speaking to them. "Hello my students...", his voice came out smooth but it was dark all at the same time. "How it feels me with delight to see that all of you have decided to say on with the academy for another time. I'm new this year and I was hoping to get to know a few of the warm bodies in the area, away from all the studies." His appearance of being a vampire wasn't very noticeable by the normal 'dragons in the academy, but by ones of the same stats as his.</font>
<font color='#000000'>Salty had simply continued drawing the young vampdragon, managing to catch the minor details though he had to look at him occasionally. Now he had one thing left to do... the fangs, which were not so obvious. Carefully he drew a curved line, then another one. Dang... that's fairly off. He sighed and tried again, this time getting more exact, but still off. And then he heard the hard tapping, then Sieben's voice. Salty's white-tipped ears flicked, and he quickly but carefully put his pencil and notebook bag in the bag. Then he looked up to see a black pendragon that looked rather... unusual. But he decided not to pay any mind just yet. The way he talks... that's actually quite disturbing. Maybe the white vampdragon here isn't the only vampire... Despite these thoughts, he managed to speak calmly and clearly. "So you're going to be a teacher? Seems that you could be a fairly interesting one, though everyone has different tastes in teachers. You know, some might find you boring, and some may dislike ya." He tossed his head, showing his branched, antler-like horns. "But I'm getting off-topic. Then again... I can't remember what I'd originally intended to say." ((OOC: Salty is so much like me that it's scary. ))</font>
<font color='#000080'><font color="green">Draco looked up. He didn't really like the sound of the 'dragon's voice and he knew he was a vampire. He could smell it. He spoke in a very dull tone. "Yeah, but you could have easily told us that in class. Why are you interupting mine and my friend's time?"</font> <font color="pink">Shinra lifted her pen from her paper, then turned to the teacher. Hm.. I don't really like the sound of that teacher... and judging by Draco's voice, He doesn't like him either..</font> <font color="brown">Red just continued to write in his notepad, paying no heed to the teacher's words</font></font>
<font color='#000080'>Upon hearing their replies, Sieben grinned evily and lowered his face away from view. Reaching his hand up taking hold of the shades he wore then placed them into the pocket of his coat. Looks back to them once more and drags his claws down the frame of the door, cutting into the wood. "As I have said before...I'm just looking to get to know a few warm bodies outside of class. Which from the way that all of your reactions towards me so far, is plesant." Draws his hand back from the door frame and flexes out his bare bone wings, popping joints and such.</font>
<font color='#000080'><font color="green">Draco muttered a few words and the door automatically repairs itself. "Do I have to get the principal? Purposely destroying the door will get you in a lot of trouble." He knew what he was up to, but he had to trip him up. "So... What class do you teach?"</font></font>
<font color='#000080'>Walks into the room more and places his hands into he pockets of his coat. Looks about slowly in the room and swings his lupe like tail back and forth as he walked. Came to the center of the room and closed his eyes lowering his head to the floor. "I will be teaching Sorcery...if no one else hasn't beat me to it yet." Shakes his head a bit and flexes his wings slightly and slides his toes along the floor.</font>
<font color='#000000'>"Sorcery... I won't be in that class. And it might be good thing for me." He sighed, going back to drawing Draco. Carefully he studied it... the paw was a little large, and the not-so-obvious fangs a teensy bit off, but other than that it was pretty good. Quickly he wrote his signature on the pic so that Draco would know that he'd done it. He paused a few moments, then looked at the older vampdragon. "Just out of curiosity, what kind of sorcery will you be teaching?"</font>
<font color='#000080'>Sieben walked over to where the artistic 'dragon sat then looked to his drawing of Draco. Smirked at it then nods thinking back to the question that was asked to him. "Dark...my young lad. I mean there isn't much for such stuff out there nowadays, but I'm sure a few 'dragons wouldn't mind studying it." Looked away from the drawing and walked back over to the center of the room where he began from.</font>
