"You want me to braid your hair? Okay." Keithia pulled a spare band out of her pocket and stood behind Ish, delicately braiding her hair.
(I'm gonna make a villian-ish character when I get home ^^)

Slingibg the 50 pound hammer onto his back, Jet looked at everyone and tried to spot a familiar face. As he watched, he spotted Keithia braiding Ish's hair and Shiro was involved with some dude with cyan colored hair. He looked over to the right and saw a girl flaunting a greatsword that could shoot flames and frost. He whistled, looking impressed at it "I ain't a weapon guy or and engineer, but that is pretty impressive. Being able to work the metal to not melt when shooting flames and also not damage itself when you freeze things with it as well." He stuck his hand out to the two girls "My name is Jet Tucker, I am also not from Vale, I come from Vacuo."
Robin Oiseau
"Hmhmhm...no name..." Robbie hummed as she thought, examining the blade with an appreciative eye. She had little experience in weaponsmithing - Thunderfall was a hand-me-down - but it couldn't have been easy to balance the forces like that. She had no idea how her own weapon, equipped to discharge electricity through dust, managed to avoid shocking the wielder.
Lost in thought, Robbie didn't notice Jet until he spoke up. And she paid him little mind until his final comment. Vacuo? Had Robbie been born a fanus, her ears would've perked. "Huh..." She took a moment to reevaluate the newcomer. Warhammer, eh? Robbie gave a funny little unreadable grin. "I'm also from Vacuo. Funny."

FEAR ME DORKS
I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY HERE OTHER THAN.... YAAAAANG!!!
(OOOOH!!! LOOK AT THIS! OOH! FANCY!)
"Okay, so, let me be honest.... I still don't know how I am gonna work things out. Let's hope... We end up on a team?" she smiled worriedly looking over to Cyan, she really wishes this would be so.
"Speech."
Ish's wolf ears couldn't help but pick up on the others' conversation. Something about a weapon not having a name. She was suddebly quite interested in it. Names were important, and she had taken months to name Dakaaniimad. It was one of Elder's first lessons, and she wouldn't let Ish practice alone without having named her weapon. When Keithia finished braiding, Ish thanked her, "Chi Miigiwetch Keithia!" And bounded over to join the conversation. "Boozhoo! You talk about... names? Weapon names?" She asked, not waiting for a response. "Yours is.. fire. And Ice. Not con-flick-ted. Balanced. Harmony. Names are important. Choose wisely."
I was thinking Great Harmony would be a really good name. Or Harmony Blaze in fire form and Harmony Frost in ice form.

Keithia smiled at Ish as she bounded away, and then she frowned. There were four people in that conversation, and she didn't want to join it. She clutched Forest Branch close to her as she looked around the locker room. The only person who looked like they weren't apart of something was that cat faunus from before, and she wasn't about to go bother him. She sighed, hoping that the time to head to initiation would come soon.
(Those both sound like good ideas. Maybe Blazing Harmony and Freezing Harmony for the second one though? And then the base form could just be Harmony? We'll have to see.)
Kelsey Alan
"Mm-hmm," Kelsey uttered, watching Robbie as the other girl hummed in thought. Her gaze was pulled over to someone who was approaching them. A slightly embarrassed smile found its way onto her expression at Jet's compliment. She was becoming increasingly aware that she was likely drawing attention to herself right now... She hoped that she didn't look like a show-off.
"Thanks, it honestly took me a while to get it to work. My first couple of attempts were... not so successful, to say the least." She carefully sheathed her sword, then swung the sheath over her shoulder to let it rest against her back. She reached out and gave Jet's hand a quick shake, "Kelsey Alan, or Kay for short - I'm fine with either." She dropped her hand to her side, glancing at Jet and Robbie. Both of them were from Vacuo? Interesting. Another voice caught her before she could make a comment.
Kay turned to see the Wolf Faunus. The way she spoke. Was English not her first language? Still, her words made Kelsey's brow furrow in thought. "Harmony..." she murmured. Hmm, she could maybe work with that. She smiled, "Thanks for the advice, I'll make sure to put a good amount of thought into it." She tilted her head to the side, "What's your name?"
Cyan nodded back at Shiro, giving a grin. "I hope the same, but what can you do until you know, you know? Even if we're not on the same team I'm sure we'll be able to be buddies. I'm actually just excited to see who I'm on a team with. I'm sure they're going to be pretty great too!" He declared, looking around at everyone. "I mean, we have so many cool people here that I can't imagine having a bad team. Do you think we get to choose or will they choose for us?" He asked afterward, tapping his chin.
While he continued to look around he spotted Ish and Keithia, tapping Shiro's shoulder and nodding in their direction. "Have you met them before? I met one of them, the one who speaks the foreign language. She seems pretty interesting, don't you think?" This also brought to his attention the others, one holding a greatsword with flame and frost. "Dang, I thought I was pretty cool but this on another level." He commented in that direction, nodding steadily.
Serephina Roux Connell
FROM ONE TO AUSTRALIA HOW DANGEROUS IS THIS?
Roux swung her arms in a circular motion as she moved her body from side to side as she gazed at her weapon with a frown. Did she really need it? Sighing, she grabbed the overly large bomb before slipping it into the brown leather satchel. Puffing out her cheeks she rocked back and fourth on the balls of her feet as she hummed. "Down by the water", she sang quietly to herself while heading out to see if she could spot Azure who seemed to have vanished. "Under the willow", she sang to herself while swinging her arms as she stood underneath one of the trees with a sad smile.
Blinking, she reached up to pull at the corner of lips to reveal a smile as she slumped against the tree. Dropping her hands down to her side, she continued to hum the small tune she learned when she was younger. "Where is he?", she muttered to herself before shrugging her shoulders. "I'll see him later", she hummed while stretching out her legs. Biting her lip, she began to play with a piece of her blonde hair as she observed the things around her.
Her lips tilted upwards as she caught sight of Azure leaning against the wall sleeping. "Azure!" She shouted with a wave up stumbling to her feet; almost face planting before she regained her balance. "Of course your sleeping", she whined while standing in front of the sleeping brute with crossed arms. Her attention drifted down to where her weapon laid, her eyebrows furrowing in thought. "Guess I could fix it up before it starts", she muttered while slipping out the large metal bomb. "I should probably find somewhere isolated..." She giggled nervously while slowly inching away from her dozing brother until she bolted off.
Finding a more isolated area, she placed the mechanical bomb on the grass as she slipped on her goggles before she got to work reprogramming the entire core. Burn marks began to appear across her hands as she kept on sparking herself but she didn't mind. Her mind to absorbed within her weapon that she ignored everything else. Roux grinned as she began to extend the chain that was attached to it before humming in response. "I should start making an upgrades.. I need more chain but it'll do for now", she muttered while wiping the sweat that tricked down.
"Speech"
Azure Warrick Connell
TOUCH THEM AND I'LL SHOVE MY FOOT SO FAR UP YOUR A–
Azure groaned as he juggled his weapon from hand to hand, a bored expressions adoring his face. He probably should be practicing for what lies ahead but he could care less at the moment. "Sleep it is", he snickered while flopping down with crossed arms, his weapon laid on his lap.
Was he always this lazy? No. Sometimes he was but not always. He just didn't feel like doing anything but he was surprised Rou hadn't found him yet. Good riddance. He had some peace and quiet before she started rambling about stupid things. Not that he minded her rattling in his ear but sometimes it was to much for him to handle.
Body tensing, he over heard Rou calling him he pretend to be asleep until she left with sudden agile-ness. "Where the heck is she going?" He grunted while opening his right eyelid before shrugging. " Hopefully she won't destroy anything", he muttered before getting comfortable once more.

I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY HERE OTHER THAN.... YAAAAANG!!!
Shiro looked over at Keitha ad Ish, smiling, "Yeah! Me, Keitha, and Ish were the ones that fought Roman Torchwick! And we got scolded... And we came to Beacon together!" she switched through a series of positive, disappointed and positive emotions all in one sentence. Immediately the intercom sounded. "Would all first year students please report to Beacon Cliff for initiation?" Glynda spoke not requesting, but, with a sense of command as she talked through the intercom. "Welp, that's us. C'mon." Shiro walked passed Cyan but grabbed his hand and pulled him along with her as if the two were siblings and she was that 'we're going when I'm going' sister.
"Speech."
Cyan looked, simply got to say “What?” And was then promptly dragged along by Shiro. It surprised him a bit, but he didn’t resist, deciding to wing it and just see where it went. She seemed to know what she was doing after all. At least, he hoped she did. “Why are we going to the cliff?” He questioned out loud. Of all the things a cliff didn’t seem exactly...right for a meeting with new students. Maybe that was just him though.

Keithia followed the crowd of students, and she ended up walking next to the cst faunus from before. Nervously, she hoped he didn't notice or care about her. She clutched her weapon tighter. It was almost time.
"Ishpaagonagaa. Keithia just call me Ish." She answered, pointing at her friend. Ish brightened up when the words came over the speaker. Although she didn't fully understand them, the fact that many of the students began making their way out of the locker room excited her. Orientation was going to begin. People had been talking about partners, but she didn't understand what a 'partner' was. She just kind of followed the crowd of first years.

FEAR ME DORKS
I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY HERE OTHER THAN.... YAAAAANG!!!
Every single student who has begun their first year of Beacon Academy filed out into the wilderness to the east of the campus, Shiro Kyanbasu's footsteps carefully tapped against the sturdy terrain below her. The natural, brown substance muting the general of the steps while the fickle blades of lush, green grass in the mid-summer bend with a considerable crack the more pressure was applied each step. The wilderness' cool and crisp breeze died out immedately as the scythe-wielder losened her grip away from Cyan's hands. Her mind was unconciously whirring about the pleasingly rough texture of his masculine skin as the tips of her toes at the soles of her feet clanked against the silver, metal platform of iron, glass and alloy. "Wow. This thing is pretty impressive, I wonder what it does." the white haired girl's silver--- no, blue eyes allowed her mind to mentally document the mechanical build. "That my dear, is a Beacon Academy state of the art launch pad." spoke the all too familiar voice that could be traced back to the intercom in the locker room, it was none other than Glynda Goodwitch. With her messily tied up bun, her ever so formal attire that she seems to where all the time even in the most casual of places and her captivating, emerald green eyes. Professor Ozpin took a sip of his steaming hot coffee in response. That wasn't even a nod in agreement. As the teenager looked up towards her superior, she couldn't help but blush as she took note of her refined and very well attractive features, she wss beautiful--- and she was totally not lesbian! Definately not!
Shiro shook her head about to rid her mind of such easily provoked crushes of anyone and everyone she sees at first glance. She has got to know them first anyway! Oh, what was she thinking?! The sun has rose over the horizon and shone boldly onto the vastly diversed valley. It's warm light cascaded just above the edge of the cliff that Beacon Academy has claimed as apart of it's territory and into the massive cluster of green trees below. With their chins held up but, not too much and their gazes unwavering in front of a row of what seems to be over fourty students (Beacon Academy gives off that university feeling instead of a small community college. I never understood nor am I willing to as to why there was only about ten or so characters for first year students in that episode.) stood a small handful of the faculty and staff. Glynda Goodwitch and Professor Ozpin stood considerably close together like they usually do. Hm, are they a couple?
"For years you have trained to become warriors. And today, your abilities will be evaluated in the Emerald Forest," Professor Ozpin began but, as always, Glynda was there to butt in with the youthful senior's unspoken permission. "Now, I'm sure many of you have heard rumors about the assignment of teams. Well, allow us to put an end to your confusion."
At the mention of teams and assignments, Shiro couldn't help but let a smile crawl onto her face.
"Each of you will be given teammates... Today."
Immediately that smile faded and was replaced with a timid frown, "What? Aw..." her whisper ended up trailing off into a hesitant and considerably squeaky whimper. Then Professor Ozpin resumed from where Glynda left off. "These teammates will be with you for the rest of your time here at Beacon. So, it is in your best interest to be paired with someone with whom you can work well." Shiro's crooked frown curved into a uneasy grin "Eh?" "That being said, the first person you make eye contact with after landing will be your partner for the next four years."
Crick- Crash!
Shiro leaned in as her expression remorphed into that of fretful worry. "What!?" this is terrible! Impossible! She doesn't even know who to look for!
"Speech."

The first person I make eye contact with?! Keithia nervously thought. Please be Jet, please be Shiro, please be Ish! Even if they aren't my partner, please let me be on the same team as one of them!

Olivine looked in horror at Ish and Keithia. "Anyone but them..." he muttered under his breath. "Please be anyone but them."
Mora was watching over the students, seeing them on edge she was hoping a gentle smile might put them at ease. To bad the smile looks more of a creepy smile then a pleasant one.
Jet grinned "You are from Vacuo too? Well, looks like I have something in common." He said, before looking at the group moving "Looks like we are moving out, I guess I will see you guys later." He said, before moving closer towards the center of the group. When everyone stopped moving, he moved to the front to get a good view of the Professors. His eyebrows raised when Ozpin talkrd about how the partner teams would be formed First person to meet eyes with, huh? That is an interesting way to help people step out their shell. He pulled out his hammer, resting thr head on the ground as he leaned against the handle, and raised his hand to ask a question "So does that mean you are going to shoot us into the forest? Because if so, that sounds pretty entertaining."
First person to look into their eyes. Ish understood that much at least, as she stepped onto a platform. It was hard, metallic... she didn't like it. But she loved the view of the forest in the morning sun. It wasn't snow-covered like the one she knew, but forsts were like home to her. She clicked her boots together, ice crimps poking out from her soles. If they were going to go into the forest, Ish wanted to be ready, and the crimps on her boots would help her climb faster than a squirrel back home. "What is a 'lonch'?" Ish asked the professors, repeating the word. She noticed students were assuming poses down the line, as if getting ready to fight.
[Have we decided who's going to meet up with who yet?]
Robin Oiseau
"Harmony...I like it. I like it a lot." Robbie nodded in appreciation. "Ish, Jet. Later," Robbie said after the announcement filtered through. A shiver traveled down her spine as the whole room of students shuffled out. What could be waiting for them at the cliff? Robbie couldn't wait to find out, and yet dreaded it all the more. What if she failed right then and there?
Robbie took a deep breath and shot a wry grin at Kelsey. "Let's go meet our fate, shall we?"
Outside, even the breeze held its breath in anticipation. Robbie rolled her shoulders, unable to take her eyes off the stunning view of the forest below even as Ozpin spoke. Goozebumps traveled down her arms. Evaluated in the Emerald Forest? That she could do. But Robbie, like so many others, perked up at the mention of teams. So it wasn't a rumor after all.
The shock of their next statement was enough to jerk Robbie's gaze away from the forest. The first person they made eye contact with?! But that could land her with anybody! It was pure chance! What if she met someone with whom she didn't get along? Robbie sputtered and found herself looking up and down the line of students. Could she trust anyone to be on her team? Would anyone even want her?
But a different panic soon replaced her fretting over teammates. As Robbie stared into the Emerald Forest, her brain finally kicked into gear and made the calculations. Forest below...cliff above....metal plates in the ground...."Aw, hell."
Robbie grabbed for Thunderfall and braced herself for launch.
(Ish was going to meet up with Olivine, leavong Cyan and Shiro to meet, Jet and Terra were going to meet with Marble and Keithia and form Team MAJK, but Marble and Terra's player has been dormant. Robin amd Kay could fill those slots rather easily, if they continue to be inactive. Back to team JKKR I guess? XD)
