i'm still not sure what i stand for
Academy life resurrected feelings of home for the vet. Having spent a large part of his developing years living on an university campus, he was reliving the experience, in a way. At least here, he wasn't studying out of some duty, some qualification, no, he was studying his own notes here, and the ones Jigano had lent him, purely for his own interest.But there was only so much studying one could do by the light of the fireplace, before one felt like tearing his own eyes out. Longnight had so far delivered as promised - an extended period of darkness, of deathly cold if one stepped outside, and of being crammed up in one place.
Since arriving in Halo, Chuy had adopted a pretty active lifestyle. He was lean and lanky before, but the constant lifting, walking, woodchopping and otherwise active work had layered him up with a healthy amount of muscle. His body craved movement, it needed it. So he moved.
He left the room that he and Kia and Auni shared, to once again walk the halls of the Academy, to explore, to marvel at the great structure. He'd never completely belong here - magic did not run through his veins in the way it does to those mages called Abandoned, and so he would never be permitted to enrol and learn from the masters of the magical arts directly.
His explorations led him to a room, which was much like every other room, except for one clear difference - it had a guard standing outside. "Shit mate, don't you have anything better to do?" He said as he approached, shaking his head slightly as he connected the dots as to whose room this was.
Shrugging, Chuy stepped around the guard and knocked on the door. "Hey Nez, it's Chuy," he called softly. "Want some company?"
why don't we break the rules already?
