Zeno Albion stood outside the school, their bags over his right shoulder, his right hand holding a school pamphlet to his eyes. His wife Libby by his side, he looked over at her, it was still strange thinking he was married. It was common for weapons and wielders to be married young if they had feelings for each other, but he was still adjusting.

"We'll have to get our dorms set up," he said calmly, he rarely showed emotions, though that wasn't an issue with her. "I'll seek out employment tomorrow."

"Ugh, Why?" He was a prince, why did he need to work? It would be much more fun with him and her both together, like a husband and wife.

Which they are. She couldn't believe it. 16, married and a weapon! *inner squeal* This was better than she could have dreamed! Libby knew Zeno loved it too, but in true Zeno fashion kept it to himself. But he was definitely thinking it!

Grabbing his hand, Libby ran forward, not caring for their luggage. "Come on, lets explore!"

Florinda was skipping class. Again. This was a treat she afforded herself once every few weeks, as a pat on the back for a job well done. Just a day to relax and not have to put up with the stuffy confines of classrooms. And to give the other students a break from her aura.
She was practically dozing off in the boughs of a tree, enjoying the cold air and the sunshine.

She was brought back to her thoughts though from the brink of sleep by four words that made her bolt right up.
Come on, let's explore!

Seeing the young couple walking along, Florinda got up and say on her branch until they were nearby. Then she would swing down so that she hung from the branch by her legs, directly in their path. Her hat fluttered to the ground, but the cheery sloth demon didn't seem to mind one bit.
Staring at Zeno and Libby upside down with a big, friendly grin on her face, she offered a wave. "Ohmigosh are you guys new students? Is that why you're exploring campus? I can totallyshow you guys around, I know this place like the back of my hand."
She looked at her own hand for emphasis, but never really stopped talking a mile a minute, even seemingly to take a breath.

"Oops, silly me. My name's Florinda. Florinda Vibrant. But you can call me Flo. It's short and easy to remember. And is kinda sounds like 'flow' and I go with the flow, you know?"

Murphy grumbled irritably as he paged through the pair of dossiers that the office had dumped on him and told him to handle. It was far too early to be dealing with another set of self absorbed high school kids who were probably used to being a big bloody deal back home where no one- huh... a prince? He skimmed a few more pages and raised a brow. Royalty was hardly a rarity in a place like this but his circumstances appeared to be... unique. First things first he had to actually FIND the pair of them and new students had a tendency to wander about if not immediately provided a guide. Ah well, he'd surely find them eventually.

He took the stairs two at a time but paused when he saw Florinda harassing a pair of...new..students... huh, that had been easy. "Miss Vibrant, shouldn't you be in class, or at least have something better to do than beleaguer our new students?" He asked with practiced sternness. Turning his attention back to the new pair he relaxed and offered a handshake. "Libby and... Zeno, correct? My name is Murphy Banks and I will be your guide today. I trust your trip here was uneventful?"

"I don't to have to rely in my father's funding," it was no secret that he resented his father, that he had never gotten along.

Then in usual Libby fashion he was pulled away for exploration. He sighed a bit as they ran, "I'll take you to city later, look at some of the shops," he said, the corners of his mouth threatening to pull up into a smile, "we have plenty of time to explore." He loved this girl, though he rarely showed any emotion, "we'll get dinner."

His eyes went wide as a girl popped down from a tree and quickly introduced herself, him pulling Libby to a stop to avoid a collision. "Uh...yes. Just arrived, I'm Zeno Albion. This is my wife," he said motioning to Libby. He wasn't sure why but he was feeling happier, not to say he wasn't haply, it's just the circumstances of their coming here wasn't the best. Either way he found a small, calm smile on his face, and his free arm unconciosly wrapping around Libby's waist.

He looked to his left as someone he believed to be a teacher appeared and introduced himself, "yes hello sir." He gave a small bow, "and yes, the portal transported us very quickly."

Oh No! She had forgotten Zeno's and the Kings Relationship was quite rough. maybe try not to mention it again?

Libby sensed him smiling as she ran, even as he tried to find a way to make her stop. "I mean the school now. not everyday we-"

A girl popped out of the sky, Libby thought, but it was just from an overhanging branch. "Hiya Flo! Can you really show us around?" Her talking speed almost matched Flo's. "Is that a way of saying things here? 'The Back of my hand.'" She giggled, such a funny phrase.Plus Zeno put his arm around her waist. She gave him a peck on the cheek to show she loved him.

Eager to continue conversing with Flo, but another person showed up. not quite as happy as Flo. He also used bigger words, like beleaguered. "Hiya Murph!" She giggled. So many people!

"Oh, hey there, Murph! How are ya, buddy!" Florinda slipped her legs from around the tree branch, falling onto her back before almost immediately bouncing to her feet. She threw her arms wide and beamed, "I'M OKAY!"
She patted Murphy on the shoulder, smiling pleasantly. She knew he couldn't really enforce her to do anything like go to class. "I'm just offering to show them around campus. Your tours are kinda boring, no offense."

Flo picked her hat up and held it above her head briefly before putting it back on. "DING! I just had an A-MAZE-ING idea. What if you and I both show around the new kids, Murph?"
She nodded excitedly, clearly thinking this was an amazing idea. "You can give them all the official info, and I can tell them the fun stuff. It'll be great!"

"A pleasure to meet you both." Murphy bowed slightly. Royalty was an odd thing on the island. Technically no single individual held any sort of royal political power here but it was still wise to treat them with respect just the same.

He bristled at the pointless shortening of his name but maintained a polite smile. Flo was a special kind of headache for him, she was one of the few people who'd actually bothered to find out whether he had any really authority or not... and he definitely did not. Still, she was a bright enough student from what he'd overheard. Perhaps recruiting her to help guide new students would give her a bit more focus.

"I suppose that would be acceptable, Flo. Perhaps we should start with the basics, however." He turned back to Libby and Zeno, "How much do you know about the academy and the greater island area already?"

"The pleasure is ours," he said in his usual calm voice though he still felt happier than usual. "The bow isn't necessary though," he wanted to be treated like any other student, being royalty has been nothing but a headache to him.

He blushed for just a second when Libby kissed his cheek, she was the only thing that could make him blush. They hadn't even kissed yet oddly enough. He gave her a smile, and sent her a few thoughts confirming his love for her.

"We do not know much," he cleared his throat, "just the basics, it being a safe haven for the supernatural." Their timeline's contact with MC was minimum, "we had to come here quickly so we didn't have much time to gather information beyond the accounts of a few past visitors."

Unsure of how to act, she just smiled and listened to the greetings around her.

Libby smiled even wider when Zeno sent the thoughts to her. it was so sweet of him! She sent some back.

Libby agreed with Zeno. But there was something she needed to know. Turning to Flo, seemingly the Fun one, she asked. "Are there any parties here in Manta Carlos?"
