Saved By The Bell

Who: Open to all students
Where: School!
Summary: Mandatory education means school time shenanigans.
Warnings: Teenagers being teenagers?


Ever since the Compulsory Visitor Education Act was passed, the Visitors of Hinoto-Ri have had to attend classes at a variety of schools according to their age and inclinations. There's always something happening in the schools, especially since even demon children are students there!

1. Homeroom! The teacher hasn't arrived yet, so the students are free to chat among themselves, review their schedules, or browse the Network.

2. Lunchtime! It's the perfect time to kick back, relax, and chat with your friends and classmates. There might even be a classical love-love confession on the school rooftop!

3. Physical Education! Get those bodies moving! What better opportunity to show off your athletic prowess exists?

4. School's out! Do you have a club to attend? Do you need to pack up quickly to make it to your part-time job? Do you just want to leave?

"Apparently! Seems like if a Pixie gets strong enough, it'll turn into a High Pixie? One of my classmates has a contract with a High Pixie, anyway."

[eyewillprotect]

"So... it's not a drastic change, is it?"

[unbroken_chain]

"I'm not sure! If it's anything like Pokemon, it'll probably change one more time, but that might just be projection."

She nibbles at her sandwich and takes a sip of juice before continuing.

"I know that some Pokemon are drastically different between evolutions, at least?"

[eyewillprotect]

"It's just... a little hard to wrap my head around, sorry."

She'll take another bite, chewing thoroughly as she figures out how to word her next question. It's only after she swallows that she finally says it: "Is it normal for Pokémon to evolve twice, then?"

[unbroken_chain]

"I think so, yeah...my team is mostly Pokemon that evolve once, but Tomoe and Tesla are the kind that evolve twice, and some of my secondary teams are exclusively pokemon that evolve twice."

[eyewillprotect]

"I... see. What exactly is it like? When they evolve, I mean."

It's still so hard for her to imagine...

[unbroken_chain]

"They kind of glow a bright white and...expand? It's hard to describe, honestly."

[eyewillprotect]

"Um... Expand?"

That... doesn't... normally sound like a good thing, though...

[unbroken_chain]

Nod nod.

"Yeah; evolved Pokemon are usually larger, so the process...it's like they become a flood of light and you can just kind of watch them...fill in their new shape?"

[eyewillprotect]

...That actually sounds mildly horrifying.

"...Maybe it would be different if I saw it for myself. It just sounds so... different from anything I know."

[unbroken_chain]

Kotoha nods.

"Yeah, even back home there are a lot of non-Trainers that have never seen a Pokemon evolve."

[eyewillprotect]

"I... see."

You learn a new thing every day.

"What about the demon... ah, evolutions? Have you seen one of those, too?"

[unbroken_chain]

"Nope! But Saki said it involved lightning and purple fog?"

[eyewillprotect]

"Purple--"

She's had bad experiences with purple fog. But hopefully, this was a very different case from that.

"I see..."
