He knew Clovis was here. he had heard it of his family. He had worked his ass off to get good grades to come into the same school as his cousin. So he'd be damned if he wouldn't find his cousin on this school! And of course, with his luck... He had not found his cousin yet. The first day had been amazing. Tiring but amazing. He had met a lot of people. Sketched a lot of stuff. Had a small argument with a Faunus because of a lil' accident. All had been... Eventful enough.

But he hadn't found his cousin.

He knew that if it came to it, he should have looked for the most quietest places. He hadn't thought of that yesterday. He would keep that in mind now, however. Clovis probably banked up at the roof or something, knowing him and his little problem...

Tilting his head, he gave a light frown, inspecting the people that passed him by. That familiar mop had to be somewhere here. And he needed to look for those headphones. "Mmm... Now if I were--" he stopped, tilting his head a bit before finally grinning widely, raising a finger. "And there we have it." he commented, mostly to himself. Headphones found. Making his way forward, he made sure he was as quiet as possible. Before finally he reached out a hand and tapped the brunet on the shoulder.

"Knock, knock."

First day was proving to be very tiring for Clovis already, and he could feel the first claws of a headache coming on. He needed a roof to sit on, or just someplace quiet, preferably now rather than later.

Ugh...sometimes, he wondered how he was going to survive the rest of the school year.

With his headphones securely on his ears to block out sound, he picked his way through the crowd, already eyeing a nice building in the distance. A deliberate tap on his shoulder got his attention, and he turned around, not expecting to see anyone he knew.

Boy was he wrong.

His consciousness snapped to attention, and his eyebrows nearly shot off his face in surprise. No, it couldn't be....he hadn't heard anything about this!!

"N.....Nick....?" Flabbergasted, he reached up, ready to pull his headphones down to confirm that it was, indeed, his cousin who was speaking to him. "Nick, izzat you....? Wh.......what're you doing here....?"

"You know, you're supposed to say 'Who's there'."

Nicholas merely smirked at the sight of his cousin, staring at him like he was seeing a ghost. It caused him to raise an eyebrow. "You know, when the clock strikes twelve, your face is gonna stay like that." he purred out before giving a friendly clap on the shoulder, laughing softly. Careful to keep his face at a somewhat quiet tone in favour of his cousin's semblance.

"As for what I'm doing here. Come on. That's a silly question." he spoke, rolling his eyes with a smirk curling around his lips, shaking his head once.

He turned his cousin around to face the statues, finally stretching out his arm to point at them, eyes glistening up and a wide grin coming on his face. "That. Over there. To become a Hunter. Why else would I be here, right? I've been training hard for this, a'ight. I wanted to surprise you." he snickered, patting his cousin's shoulder once.

"How's the school treating you so far considering..." he trailed off, gesturing to the headphones.

Clovis let out a short laugh, rolling his eyes at his cousin's usual bad jokes. He carefully moved his headphones down to his neck, willing to listen and brave the din of the crowd, rather than have to lip-read. It was only courteous, despite how well Nick knew him.

He let himself be turned around, finding himself facing the statues of Kalos' Elite 4. Ah, yes...to become a hunter. Clovis knew the feeling all too well, and he knew that Nick knew that, too. Honestly, he wasn't...entirely sure he would be able to give a proper reason as to why he wanted to be a hunter...yet.

He turned back around when Nicholas patted his shoulder, slipping his headphones on again now that he was sure that was Nick's voice. "Oh, it's....alright," he replied, reading his cousin's lips. "I mean, it's almost as bad as I thought it would be. Almost. Which is actually pretty good, considering," he chuckled. "I've been taking lots of breaks...going to quiet areas and stuff like that. Like rooftops."

"How 'bout you? When'd you even arrive in Lumiose?" he asked, playfully pushing Nick's shoulder.

A smirk curled around the red-head's lips, one eyebrow raising at the sound of his cousin's laugh. A hand reached out to tap lightly at the headphones he had just moved down. "You know I understand if you want to keep those on, dork. I'll be sure to keep the talking to lip-reading level." he spoke, putting up a hand.

However when he had turned the other to face the statues before them, he could not help but wonder what made Clovis come to this specific place. What had drawn him to Kalos Academy? And even more exciting.. Would he be on a team with his cousin? That would be wicked. But perhaps, too luck for him.

The headphones were placed back to his ears, understandable. All the bustle around them. Nicholas didn't mind at all, he was used to it. But it could get noisy, especially for Clovis. They stood face to face again, he made sure not to move around too much. "I did imagine that you would." he spoke, gesturing up to the roofs. "I actually wanted to find you somewhere there. But I found you before you had the chance to do so." he stated, giving a wide grin before making a face at the question when he arrived.

"Way too late if you ask me. I would've loved to meet people before entering the school. But father wanted to ensure I knew everything. And mother was keen to have me aside her for as long as possible. The siblings were unhappy at the thought of me going too." he stated, waving a hand in the air. "You know how family can get.. But yeah. I missed days. I don't like that at all." he spoke, leaning back and folding his arms over his chest, brows furrowing.

"I arrived yesterday. Spent one night in Lumiose. Met one person and now I'm here, as you can see." he stated, spreading his arms and bowing once. "Atleast I met more people this first day, though." he added, peering back at his cousin. "What about you?"

"Ahh, yeah...your family..." he sighed, his smile straining a bit. He knew that Nicholas' side of the family meant well, but they were just so...strict? Overprotective? Limiting, to say the least. ...And a little uncomfortable, with all those Faunus, to be honest.....but Clovis couldn't just say that to them. They were family.

"Oh, I was in Lumiose for about...4 days? Most of it was spent cooped up in my hotel room, heh," he shrugged, not bothering to mention how bad anything outside his room was. Hell, even inside his room it wasn't all that great; the walls weren't exactly soundproof.

"I met a few people though, this guy, Benji? He seemed pretty cool," he smiled, also not bothering to mention that lousy good-for-nothing pickpocket he'd encountered. "Haven't seen him all day, though...maybe I'll get lucky and spot him tonight, though. Other than that...I've...been making an effort to stay away from people." He sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck, hoping that Nicholas wouldn't start chiding him, and quickly added, "But I mean, once it quiets down I'll definitely go and socialize."

"Anyway....where're you headed now?" he asked, tilting his head curiously.

His lips curved up at the look on Clovis' face, patting his back twice. "Come, come. I know what you mean with that face. But they only mean well in the end." he commented, hunching up his shoulders in a shrug. And in his own way, he had shown his worth. Every time again. He managed to do exactly what he wanted to do. Even if it meant scaring the crap out of his parents often. Not only his parents. Also the maids. Or the butler. Or the cook.. Gardener.. Guard-- Okay, so he tended to get himself in trouble a lot.

"Four days. That's longer than me!" he stated, eyes widening a bit. "Managed to meet anyone? Are you thinking of who could be on your team? I bet you're going to have a great team! You're going to end up amazing me, I'm sure of it!" he rattled on to his cousin, using his hands to make gestures.

When the other mentioned a guy named Benji, he stopped his own words and nodded, folding his arms over his chest and listening quietly to the other before giving a wide grin. Apparently, the other didn't have much luck finding him back though. "Are you surprised by that? I mean, have you seen how many people are around? A lot of Faunus too. Some don't seem too happy with humans on the Academy too..." he frowned a bit, tilting his head to look around. "They'll have to learn we gotta work together... If they want to take down the Grimm." he sighed before looking back at him.

"I guess I get that, though. It must've been hella loud for you today... Try to socialize later on though." he spoke, just as the other told him he would socialize once it quieted down. It earned a soft snicker from the red-head, who leaned back.

"Me? I don't know. I was about to look around the place a bit more. Might call it a day soon enough and grab a book or my sketch book to fill in the time until it's time to sleep." he confessed, giving a slight shrug. "I promised the 'rents I wouldn't cause any trouble on my first day." he added with an innocent smile, though there was a cheeky glint in his eyes.

"As if I ever would~"
