Do we really have to run?

[mreglamore]

Well, it is physical education.

[butterflygoboom]

But what do you actually learn?

[mreglamore]

Physical coordination and teamwork, to start.

2!

[rainbowbrush]

This is stupid.

[A pause.]

You're stupid.

Re: 2!

[mreglamore]

I'm just following the rules, Arrowny. What were you even DOING in there at that hour?

[rainbowbrush]

None of your business! Why d'you wanna know, anyway? I wasn't hurting anybody!

[mreglamore]

With some of the equipment in that lab, you could've hurt someone pretty easily.

I assure you, Mr. Eglamore, this is not necessary. I have everything under control here.

[True to his point, the...whatever-the-hell that is...somebody's Archon flipping its shit? Anyway, the big metal monster lashes around Eglamore's defense at the history teacher with a prehensile lash of some kind. Char calmly sidesteps the attack as if it was a leisurely backhand.]

In fact, if you'd be so kind as to get out of the way...

[mreglamore]

[He does stand aside, but as he does the white dragon glows and shrinks down to a bluish glowing sword and some extra armor that wraps itself around Eglamore appropriately, leaving him ready to fight.]

Like it was under control last night? Or the night before that?

[char_char_char]

Precisely! It's important to observe these things to find out where they're coming from and what they're doing. After all...

[Char's own hulking red humanoid-shaped Archon materializes behind him.]

...either of us could kill this thing in about thirty seconds if that's all that interested us.

[mreglamore]

[He sighs.]

You're not wrong. But I have a duty to protect the student body, and-

[The rogue archon lashes at Eglarmore, but is unable to penetrate his armor. He chops the end off of the lash with a lightning fast blow of the sword, causing it to recoil in pain as the wound drips with some kind of blue, liquid fire.]

-and I don't entirely trust you.

[Hector's not even looking at him. This isn't the first time he got in trouble]

What's the point? It's not going to stop anyone.

[mreglamore]

The POINT is that you can't just go walking around restricted areas at night without a care in the world! Aside from being against the school rules, those areas are filled with things that are extremely dangerous. You could have been killed.

I honestly expected better from you.

[temptestonaboat]

...

Least you expect something.

What I was doing is important, but I... can't explain it.

[mreglamore]

Try me.
