Tair turned his attention towards the front of the classroom, quietly taking in what the three teachers had announced. A battle using powers, it was something he'd been expecting the teachers to ask of them, but he hadn't expected it to come so soon.
He had a fairly good amount of control over his powers from learning on his own as well as the guidance his sister had given him, but had decided to come to this school to polish up his training and perhaps grow even stronger. He was somewhat sure he could hold his own in combat, though he would undoubtedly have a hard time with any fire-type users. He was quite sure that red haired girl he'd glanced over was one-
The 'heat radar', as his sister affectionately referred to his ingrown ability to feel large amounts of heat (a self protection skill), went off at the same time he heard footsteps entering the room. He quickly froze in place as he felt the rather large amount of heat enter the room and take a spot near the back wall. His fingers twitched a bit, the only sign of his discomfort at the prickling warmth, but he quickly willed them to stop and slipped his hands off the desk.
Entering the room, he'd felt a similar air come from one of the girls in the room, but this air held a bit more... hostility to it. He took a small breath then cast a quick glance over his shoulder to spot who had been emitting the abnormal amount of heat. His eyes landed on the rather dark looking figure leaning against the wall, a glare directed over Tair's head and towards the teachers in front. He studied the boy briefly before looking forward, hopefully before the dark teen had noticed his inspection.
After all this was over, Tair planned to take a long cold shower. Or perhaps just lay out in an empty area and create a small snow bank around himself. Outside though, he doubted his roommate would enjoy returning to a snow-covered dorm room.
