Thread: [Middie] The Replacement [Vali]

Kael hadn't turned away from the teacher in time to notice the cute look she put on her face. The male's eyes remained on the female, before she finally got what she said. She had looked quite distracted before, perhaps overwhelmed by the amount of potential choices available to her. The students wandering around had begun chatting with the senior enchanters, mostly older humans and younger looking elves who were likely twice as old. A few of the male students stared at this new replacement instructor for a moment before blushing and turning their eyes away, as kael had moments before. The male almost turned around, though Madame Night's voice distracted him. The demon questioned where he was going, then suggested that she take him as her apprentice. The male blinked once, then smiled brightly. He had been so worried about ending up without a master or mistress, as there wasn't nearly enough seniors to teach all of the young apprentice mages, the rest would all resume group education, essentially stopped in their education for another few years. Kael was momentarily speechless, managing to squeak out a startled really? before the female strode over to him. The woman rested her hands on his shoulders, causing n odd sensation to fill him, his back straightening a little against his will. Okay, thank you... Mistress Nite The male smiled sweetly at the instructor, this was good, he was going to have a teacher! Kael momentarily distracted himself with thoughts of advanced magics, perhaps one day he would even be able to get that summoning done right? Kael was taken out of his little daze when he felt the woman's hand touch his face. The boy's eyes refocused and his ears twitched, listening to his new teacher's question. before realizing her hand was on his cheek. The boy blushed, his cheek warming under her hand before she moved to brush his hair out of his face. My name? I am Kael... The young male looked up at Nite, smiling sheepishly, her work in moving his hair out of his face was undone when he tilted his head to the side, his ears moving, twitching slightly in a cute expression. Kael was glad that he got a teacher the first time during his first meeting, most of the students wouldn't, since the teachers usually had a free for all in an attempt to grab the best students for themselves. Kael looked at nite, still having a hard time not staring at her, she had asked him to become her student, which put butterflies in his stomach. Kael smiled shyly, still blushing, he never dreamed that a senior could be so young and attractive, it was literally hard to not stare at her. Nite announced that they would have a lot of fun , that she would teach him things he never knew existed, which he assumed she meant by magic. You are right, I can't Kael smiled, resisting a smirk as he caught several jealous looks from other students and even a couple instructors. You just netted the best student you can get, I won't let you down, I promise. Kael's hubris was starting to show, he was very pleased he got an instructor, even if nite was just being lazy or whatever. The male smirked, his eyes glancing back to the instructor, a deliberate attempt made to keep them away from the areas he shouldn't be staring at. The elf moved, stepping towards the exit of the garden, satisfied that the business today was concluded. Kael looked at nite, smiling softly So... um... Mistress, the second step, would you like me to move into your quarters with you or would you prefer it if I stayed in mine? It was up to the instructor if the apprentice was to move into their quarters, live and learn with them as their apprentice, some instructors didn't like that, and instead just met with their apprentices whenever they wanted to to teach them. I can go get my things unless you are eager to teach me something This woman looked quite young, perhaps she was just a new instructor am I your first student? The male stepped closer to his new teacher, he could follow her to her quarters, which had likely been converted from madame Valen's quarters since she dissapeared. So, would you like me to go get my things? I could also show you to your quarters, you can teach me there undisturbed. Kael smiled innocently, he couldn't wait to get started, it was a little naive, but also quite cute of him.
