[Standing by the directory is a redheaded man in a SeeD uniform, watching as all the people go past and maintaining a silly, amused grin on his face. He seems to be paying particular attention to the girls, especially the older ones, but everyone gets at least a little bit of attention - just memorising faces, people! It helps an instructor to know

[And here's an unfamiliar face. Tobias pauses once he realizes the man's looking at him, blinking.]

Are you one of the instructors that just got back?

[lightspears]

[Hello, random kid. Zelos is just gonna look down at you like you're offensive or something. It's purely because you're not a pretty lady.]

Yeah, I guess I am.

[heartcorrupt]

[It's not HIS fault, geeze.]

Nice to meet you. I'm Tobias.

[lightspears]

Right, right... are you in my classes, kid? Because if you're not, I'm not interested in talking to guys.

[fierybluebird]

I guess that's one word for it, eh.

[lightspears]

Well, I suppose so. "Swarm" could work.

[Swings his arms up behind his head, and leans against the directory, closing his eyes for a moment.]

Just as long as I get some especially hot chicks in my classes, I can deal with it. Can't go without my hunnies to brighten my day!

[fierybluebird]

There do seem to be slightly more hot chicks than any guys.

Well, maybe not recently. I don't keep tabs on the ratios. The hot redhead with the sharp teeth is mine though. [There's a very loud and clear unspoken "So hands off" look and tone that goes along with it.]

[lightspears]

[Oh Marco. You're assuming that Zelos is going to acknowledge Grell as female. ...he's not, because he's a dick who actually puts effort into being ridiculously shallow.

He holds up his hands in mock surrender, and teases a little.]

Huh. A little protective, are we? Not even a bit of playful flirting? Man, you're no fun.

[beginsoffstage]

[As usual, Gabs is reading a book as she walks through the hallway, completely unaware of her surroundings---and of course, she bumps into Zelos. With only a second to look, she jumps back.]

I'm so sorry, m'am! You okay? [... sorry Zelos. He's temporarily a she.]

[lightspears]

[Did she just call him ma'am? ...well, she has got her head stuck in a book. Rather than react with offense or anything though, he decides to make a show of looking around.]

Ah, were you talking to someone, adorable little bookworm?

[Bookworm isn't the cutest nickname. Hm. Better revise that.]

[beginsoffstage]

Oh, jeez. [she blushes, clutching the book to her chest as she nervously smiles back at Zelos] I'm sorry, sir. I didn't mean to---it won't happen again.

[lightspears]

[Waves a dismissive hand.]

Oh no, don't you worry about it! I don't mind pretty girls bumping into me at all - being called ma'am, though...? I'd keep your head out of the books while walking, hm?

[slowmohair]

[Kahlan quietly clears her throat, coming up from behind, some folders tucked under her arm.]

[lightspears]

[Zelos turns, grins like an idiot, and... well, you can practically see the heart emotes floating over his head right now.]

Yes, beautiful? You're looking for my attention, right?

[slowmohair]

[She finds herself amused oddly enough and it might show in her green eyes, but Kahlan keeps her "Your charms don't work on me" mask on.]

May I ask what it is that you're doing?

[AKA don't you have a class to teach.]

[lightspears]

What does it look like? I just got here - I've got to at least check out the state of the student body!

[shops_a_lot]

[Bulla pauses upon hearing Zelos speak.]

I'm not that new, but I don't think I've ever seen you before.

[lightspears]

[Oh, here's a cute one! But how old is she? Sixteen?]

Yup! Just got back the other day, in fact! Looking forward to seeing some pretty faces in my classes - Garden's latest influx of cadets sure looks promising.

[shops_a_lot]

[She is indeed sixteen and only turned sixteen roughly a month ago. Bulla laughs at the Instructor's bluntness.]

I don't think you're supposed to check them out until they've graduated and become SeeDs, sir. What are you teaching?
