second lesson | How To Tell When You're Talking To An Aged-Up Ten-Year-Old

[protectshisclass]

[So some time ago, Negi regained a jar of red and blue pills, and had put them away just in case he ever needed them. Unfortunately, he'd almost forgotten about them, until he found them under his bed, hidden away so thoroughly he almost missed it the first time.

But these aren't your ordinary pills, oh, no. They're definitely what explains why there's an older-looking version of Negi coming down the stairs.]

[ACTION - on the way to school]

Nagi! Oh, hey there!

[Negi blinks, then turns around, smiling politely. It's a drone, of course, walking up to him with a sense of urgency.]

Ah, good morning to you, sir.

Where have you been, man? You've been missing for days!

[He...actually looks sort of taken aback by this.] What do you mean?

You know what I mean! Being absent for three days...the teachers have been throwing a fit over it.

But I don't--

Come on! You don't wanna miss school again, do you?

[Poor kid. He's looking ever more confused--after all, he attended school yesterday, so why would he be absent for three days straight? Someone should explain to him that since, technically, he's a teenager now, he should be attending high school.]

[ACTION - High School]

[So now Negi is lost all over again. It was simpler in elementary, really, and the fact that the drones treat him as if he's always attended this school does not help his confusion one bit.

So don't be surprised, then, when a rather handsome young man taps you on the shoulder.]

Excuse me, I'm sorry if I've interrupted you or anything, but I'm a little lost...

[Or, of course, you can encounter him during lunch break, eating on his own at the table. Feel free to sit down next to him, heaven knows he needs the company.]

((OOC: Just a heads-up, I'll be replying with bishonenteacher, for all the older!Negi [aka Nagi] icons.))

Comments

[Action | High School]

[detecting]

Not at all. I take it you've only recently arrived?

[bishonenteacher]

Not exactly. This is my first time attending this school, though.

[detecting]

I was not aware that another high school existed in Mayfield.

[bishonenteacher]

I'm sure there isn't.

[Let that sink in for a moment.]

[detecting]

[Well then. You've got Naoto's attention, sir.]

Were you returned home for some time? [People have gone home and returned to Mayfield at a further point in their own life. Perhaps that was what happened here...?]

Action

[nozomisitter]

[Ah lunch. And here's Rin with her customary huge piles of food when she notices the handsome teacher there. He didn't look like a drone, he was way too fashionable for that.]

Can I sit here?

[bishonenteacher]

Sure!

[Though...oh, gosh, that is a huge pile of food. And no, he isn't a teacher, apparently he's just a student. Granted, one who's smarter than the drone teachers, but still.]

[nozomisitter]

[Sitting down, Rin nodded at him before taking a bite of her food.]

I haven't seen you around before. Are you new?

[bishonenteacher]

I've been in Mayfield for a while, but this is my first time attending this school.

[It's so...different from what he's used to, both in the elementary school as a student and in Mahora Academy as a teacher.]

Action

[tennen]

[Shion tended to stay in the classroom during lunch hours, but seeing someone that didn't appear to be a drone sitting alone was too curious for him to pass up.]

Um.... excuse me, are you new here?

[He approaches the side of the table opposite of Negi.]

[bishonenteacher]

Um...I guess you could say that. I'm new to this school.

[tennen]

It's really not so bad once you get used to it.

[....]

You seemed lonely, so I was concerned.

[bishonenteacher]

I was just waiting for someone to show up, but thank you anyway.

[snacklist]

[Say what now? He turns at the tap on his shoulder, offering a smile to the nervous looking fellow student.]

R-Really? Where are you looking for?

[bishonenteacher]

The English class. Sorry if I've bothered you.

[snacklist]

It's no bother! I can show you the way if you like?

[bishonenteacher]

Really? Thank you! And...ah, I didn't even get your name. I'm Nagi Springfield.

[...actually it's Negi, but no one needs to know that right now.]

[ACTION - High School]

[swineprince]

[Ebony turns and blinks for a moment. Oh gosh, this guy is cute. Ebony offers him his most charming grin.]

You're lost? Where are you trying to go? Uhm... I might not be too good at helping since I've only been in this town for a few days, but I'll do my best!

[bishonenteacher]

History, actually. Thank you so much for your time.

[Even the guys want him. It's totally canon.]

[swineprince]

[And it seems Eb is no exception. Excuse him while he imagines dirty things for a moment.]

History? This period? That's where I'm supposed to go, actually.

[bishonenteacher]

Ah, great! Do you need any help with your things?

[That's right, join his harem--I mean, such a gentleman.]

High School

[drank_the_milk]

[Yuna sits her tray down across from Negi at the lunch table, tossing off a two-fingered salute by way of greeting.]

Yo~!

[bishonenteacher]

Yuna-san! It's nice to see you here.

[drank_the_milk]

Yeah! So, what's up? Did you miss me so much you just had to sneak into the high school to come visit?

[bishonenteacher]

Well, not exactly.

[He digs into his pocket and brings out a small container, full of Age-Changing Pills.]

I got these back a while ago, but I didn't think to use them until now. I didn't know I'd have to attend the high school when I did, though.
