(Whee! So yeah, Zachary over here is a human, but remember to follow these rules here. I might rage if you don't. Just a warning. And it's annoying if you don't as well. These rules are here for a reason, please don't break them. If you think your character should be one of the three or four who know about Zacary's secret, PM me and I will think about it. Sidenote: I hate to do this, but I think I have enough threads with Logan so please don't attack Zachary too. K? Thanks BYE!) Zachary was up and out of the bus as soon as it stopped. He could get over excited like that, sometimes. The teen pushed his light green glasses up again, making sure his light brown hair wasn't too messy for his first day. While sometimes he didn't care too much about how he looked, he liked to at least make a good first impression. The brown haired teen swung one of his backpack straps over his shoulder, walking around a bit and admiring the campus. It was definitely bigger than he had expected. Briefly he wondered why there weren't already a ton of students here, but then he remembered how long the bus ride had been and figured that part of it was because the school was so far away. Good thing they had dorms here, then. He looked around again, bright green eyes scanning the clearing for somebody to talk to. When he saw somebody he started waving and shouted, "Hey!"

Aria Griffin was walking around the bus stop as usual, she liked to meet the new students. It helped her with socializing, and to make friends. She was wearing a cute little outfit, and her blue hightops. Aria kept on bumping into other half-bloods, which was uncomfortable. Then, she saw a boy with brown hair, bright green eyes, and green glasses. He seems kawaii cool, thought Aria. She walked over to him and said, "Hi! Welcome to the academy! I'm Aria, you could call me Ari if you want to. What's your name?" She hoped she didn't sound too perky, Aria didn't want to scare him off. (ooh, what if ari and zach become BFF's?)

Zachary let his usual grin weasel it's way onto his face as the girl he had been waving to turned around and walked to him. "Zachary Elliwood, at your service," he said, bowing in a joking manner. "Though my buddies call me Zack." He stood up straight again, pushing his glasses back onto his nose, still giving his signature grin. Once he noticed the brown wings sticking out of Ari's back however, his smile wavered and faded for a moment. He might act like it sometimes, but he wasn't a idiot. They were too lifelike to be fake.
Which meant she was a halfblood. What was a halfblood doing in a school for- Zachary looked around and spotted more pairs of ears, wings, and tails on everyone. Scratch that last question, what was Zachary doing in a school for halfbloods?!
"This is a school for halfbloods, right?" he asked, smiling again and acting as though he was just making sure and had already known that. He was rather good at lying. "I want to make sure I'm not stepping into a school filled with humans."

Aria giggled as Zack bowed. In return, she jokingly curtsied. "Nice to meet you, Zack! Oh, barely any humans get to this school. I couldn't imagine what they could do to me! Anyways, what do you think of the school, so far?" asked Aria. She shuddered at the thought of humans. They killed her parents, and nearly killed her and her brother! Anyways, Zack and Aria seemed like they would be great friends.
(lol my dad just walked by and he said, "Oh my god that dude looks just like you.")

Barely any humans? So other ones were here, too? Alright, small comfort, but there were probably like, 2 others? Yeah, things weren't looking so good for Zachary right now.
"Oh it's great!" he said, half-lying. "I think I might get lost in it. I never thought it was going to be this big," he joked. He could tell already that Aria wasn't fond of humans. As long as nobody figured out he was one, he should be okay...hopefully nobody would ask for a while. But something else was still nagging at the back of his mind.
"I hate to ask, but I have to know," he started. "What happens to a human if they are discovered at the school? Do they get what's coming to them or just get shooed away? Couldn't they tell anyone outside about Animalia Academy?" He was doing his best to put on a convincing act, and it seemed like it would work. After all, he had practice lying. His cheerful attitude wasn't always completely sincere, after all.

"Yeah, I've got lost in the forest plenty of times." said Aria rolling her eyes. "Oh, I think a human just get shooed away or something like that. I don't really know what happens completely, why are you so intrested in humans?" It wasn't really normal to want to know that much about humans. He's probably just paranoid. "I know we just met, but, do you wanna be friends?" asked Aria.

Why are you so interested in humans? As much as Zachary had thought of a game plan for his set of lies, he hadn't thought of a real answer for that. "Just curious?" he smiled shyly, shrugging. "I wanted to make sure they got what they deserved. I want to know that I'm safe here." It wasn't a lie...completely. It was that he wanted to know if he was safe even as a human here. Just keeping it a secret would have to do for now, though.
He pushed his glasses up once again, something he often did, then slipped his hands into his pockets. "Sure," he answered. "Why not?" Except that you kind of hate my species.
"So what kind of animal are you, anyway? Some kind of bird...?"

"I'm a brown falcon, more commonly known as a brown hawk. What's your animal?" asked Aria smiling. She didn't see any tails, ears, wings, or anything on the boy. Maybe he was one of the unlucky ones?

"Mouse," he lied without missing a beat, rubbing the back of his neck as though embarrassed by it. It would give him a reason for not transforming as much, at the very least. It would be embarrassing. "I think I'm gonna count myself lucky for it not being so obvious. It's kind of embarrassing, in all honesty." He chose the mouse, though, because a mouse with light brown fur would be the same as his hair color. It seemed like his best option. He would probably regret that later.
"Please don't eat me," he added, joking a bit, once he realized that mice were on the list of prey for hawks and most other birds of prey.

Aria giggled. "Hehe, I'll try. It's not that embarrassing to be a small animal! You could fit into small places, and you get to be really fast! It's nothing to be ashamed about." said Aria, hoping to encourage him.

"Pfff," Zachary made a sign for stop, smiling. "Aww, stop that. You're making me blush." The brunette's face was a bit pink, actually. There was a small blush there, even though Aria was giving him credit for something he really wasn't. Even when you got praise for something you never did, though, wouldn't you still be flattered, though?
"You have any siblings here?" he wondered aloud due to pure curiosity. "I'm an only child, but I don't mind."

"Yeah, I have an older brother, Adam. He's half hawk." explained Aria. "Wait, how old are you again?" Zack looked like he was as old as her, but he seemed younger in ways.
(I don't really know what else to say.)

"16," Zachary chirped. "I guess I'm kind of tall for my age. Never would have expected that, given my animal half, huh?" Hopefully height wasn't one of the things that was determined mostly by your animal half. Things wouldn't be looking to good for him if somebody noticed.
(I don't either! xD)

"Cool! I'm 16 too!" said Aria happily. "Yeah, but height doesn't really matter. It's all part of your DNA, so if your parents were really tall, then you would be pretty tall too. Your animal half only notches it down a little." I'm rambling again, aren't I?

Zachary shrugged. "I guess my dad was kind of tall," he admitted. "I don't know about my mom, though. I don't remember too much about her. My dad tell me she was great, though." He pushed his glasses up again, then readjusted his backpack. "Know anywhere I can set my stuff down?" he asked, then pulled a small piece of paper out of his pocket and read it. "I think I'm in Dorm...10? Yeah, that's it."

"You could put your stuff in your dorm, I can show you where it is." said Aria, smiling.
(I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO SAY)

"That'd be great," he replied. "Shall we go, then?" Zachary started walking, turning around and waiting again since he realized he had no idea where to go. "Maybe you should lead..."

"Hehe, yeah." said Aria as she reached out her hand, hoping for Zack to hold her hand.

(WOO. Getting a bit flirty, are we, Aria? I apologize, but I like more slow-building romances. I know I'm a bit slow-paced for you, as I saw how fast Adam and Rosey got together. It took one thread. Cecelia and Dami? I lost count of their threads, and they still aren't official yet. xD)
Zachary noticed Aria holding out her hand, seemingly waiting for him to take it, but he opted for acting to be that clueless ditz of a guy who didn't notice. Times like these he was lucky to be a very good actor. Was he just paranoid? Did he really think something so simple as touch would give away who he really was? Maybe.
Maybe it was something else.
So he just followed her, smiling shyly.
(SHOT DOWN.)

(LOL, I wasn't going for that! She just wanted to take his hand into hers and then she would go running off like those cute friend movies.)
Aria shrugged when he didn't take her hand. It was okay if he didn't take her hand, she was just doing it to be playful. She started to walk toward the dorm building, hoping that Zack would follow her.
As she walked, Aria thought of something, What if Zack didn't take my hand because he thought I liked him? That would be soo cool Aria! I mean, he's super cute! You rotten teenagers getting all lovey dovey? Dagnabbit you have to do it the old-fashioned way. You just got to-Shut up old man. Shut up guys.

Zack did, glad that Aria didn't seem to notice his reluctance to...well...touch her in any way. (PLEASE DON'T MAKE THAT PERVY D:) He sped up a bit to catch up to her, slowing down again once he reached her side. He pushed up his glasses once again and followed her to the dorms.
(End thread?)
