It was a sunny afternoon when a young man, blonde hair flowing in the gentle breeze, walked up to the school gates, looking up with a sigh.

He was in plainclothes. A pair of jeans complemented by a flat-bottomed pair of blue suede sneakers.
His shirt was a simple white button-up, with a black tie swaying in the wind.

"Ravencroft High, eh?" He mumbled, getting a sense of deja vu. "Looks like we'll be spending some time here, eh Mr. Cat?" He looked at his messenger bag, a pair of golden eyes beaming up at him. The Scottish fold popped his head up through the bag's opening, purring at an audiable volume.

"Maybe we can make some friends here, eh?"

There was a curious feeling in the teen's gut, like something BIG was going to happen. Something exciting and wonderful.

Just then, the wind picked up, carrying some leaves from the trees down along the sidewalk from the prestigious educational institute, carrying them down across the city of Rockport, where he would be living for the next few years.
Past the dorms they flew, criss crossing between other people walking along the streets before finally flying out into the bay.

It was the beginning of a new school year, and a new adventure for the blonde Englishman.

The heat was not exactly a certain bluenette's best friend, and the fact that his uniform was much shorter than what he was accustomed to only served to make him more uncomfortable as he walked up to the school gates, where a blonde boy with a cat in his bag stood, looking up at the structure before them.

"So this is it...?"

He muttered to himself, his voice was about as stoic as his demeanor made him out to be. With a sigh, he adjusted his glasses and tried not to seem so... bored, compared to the blonde next to him. Not only did he find other males pretentious, but he had a certain bias against cats due to one trying to scratch his eyes out when he was young. Of course, he could see, so obviously the animal had failed. Despite not trying to seem rude, his next words came out with a bit more of a cool note than he'd wanted,

"I didn't think pets were allowed on school property... I'd hate to see you get in trouble."

He glanced over at the blonde with his red-brown eyes, but soon returned them to the school that loomed before them. What would happen here? Would the classes actually be interesting, or would they be so boring that he'd have to cut classes again?

Suddenly there was another next to him!
Claus jumped a bit when the blue haired person spoke.
"Oh! H-hi there!" He chuckled, extending a hand. "Name's Claus." The blonde said, his accent kind of rough, but it was apparent English was his first language.

"Claus Lytton." He patted the feline's head, his oddly folded ears turning back, as Cat's ears usually do.

When the peculiarly-haired young man spoke, Claus's face visibly turned down. No pets?
"Huh. Well, I guess. But Classes don't start for another few weeks, right? I was just gonna give the campus a bit of a tour, really.

A bird flew overhead, perching itself on a nearby tree. Mr. Cat bounded out of the bag, climbing the oak. He sat himself down by the avian, tail whipping in a melodic tempo known only to the black-furred creature.

The one thing the Japanese student had so foolishly wanted was for the other boy to remain silent, but it seemed that wasn't the case, and he'd have to deal with him for now... Well, it was a good thing he had a calm demeanor...

When the other boy introduced himself and extended a hand, the bluenette shook it gently with one of his own pale ones. Then, he introduced himself, it was clear that English wasn't his first language, but he still spoke it with ease,

"It's... a pleasure to meet you. I'm Rei Takeda."

With that, he released the other's hand and put it in his coat pocket. At that point, he went into his usual smirk as the cat disappeared up a tree, and the Englishman explained himself.

"Oh, I see... I'm here for the tour as well."

Sighing, he made his way forward, taking his first steps on the school grounds. What was the Englishman's deal with his cat? Was he simply that attached to it, or was the cat the kind that followed around its owner regardless of where it went? If it was the former, how could someone be so attached to an animal?

It was just one of many things he didn't quite understand about people..

Claus chuckled.
"Kinda far from home, eh? Same here. I come from the old UK. Wales, to be precise." The blonde grined a warm, inviting smile. "And don't mind Mr. Cat. He just kinda follows wherever I go anyway. He's a pretty good cat, you know?"
The warm wind blew again, frazzling some of the Englishman's hair.

"So, the tour ain't starting for a bit, what should we do?" the teen puzzled aloud.

The place he was from was one he had heard of, but he wasn't quite sure where in the world it was. Judging from the fact that the other boy spoke English, he could assume it was more of a Western Area. This was something he did not bother to touch upon verbally, because his lack of geographical skill was something he did not bother to touch upon.

Then, his bit about the cat had been confirmed. Adjusting his glasses, the bluenette made his way over to a tree, and leaned against it in a nonchalant manner, before reaching into one of his uniform jacket's pockets, and pulling out a copy of "Around The World In 80 Days" as if to answer the Englishman's question.

As the blue haired boy pulled out the book, It caught the blonde's attention. "Eighty Days? Dude! I love that book! Haven't seen it in ages, though. Lost my last copy in a move. Movie was brilliant, though." He chuckled. The wind whistled through the branches of the tree, the leave's hues and paint like colors swirling in the evening light.
Some more of the dainty light-collectors flew off, their stems crushed by the invisible hands of the air.

Meanwhile, Mr. Cat had nuzzled the bird, purring slightly. The bird was terrified for its life, but the feline had no harm in mind for the avian.

The fact that the Englishman had read such a book was a legitimate surprise for Rei, and he honestly made no attempt to hide it, for he felt there was no need to. Well, if there was one thing they could discuss, it was books... anyway.

"I see, so... if you don't mind my asking, what's your favorite genre of literature?"

He took no notice of the wind as it toyed with his hair and some of the more loose parts of his uniform, but he did take note of the cat's purring. Despite this, he did not check to see if it had eaten the bird and was now content, or if it was something else, instead assuming the former.

Favorite genre? He never really thought of that before! The blonde dug through his brain-pan, deciding on a whitty response.

"Personally, I don't really have a favorite. I like everything! Besides this godawful twilig-"
Suddenly a rather lean man, scraggly blonde hair an d a bit of a goatee growing walked up to the gate.

The older man scratched his chin hair, looking more bored than a 2x4. "You the kids I gotta show around? Hell's Bells, this shouldn't take too long." His dull tone was enough to tell the two that he was bored out of his skull.

Mr. Cat hopped down from the rather high tree branch, landing on his owner's shoulder.

The blunette nodded when the blonde's response came, well... it seems they could agree on something, though... what had he been referring to when it came to god awful books? Obviously, whatever it was, it wasn't exactly popular in Japan and therefore he had not heard of them. With a short sigh, the bluenette looked at the newcomer, and nodded at the question.

"Yes sir."

Naturally, he could relate to the man's lack of enthusiasm towards his job, as someone who was also EXTREMELY bored. Not only that, but also the fact that he'd probably done the tour several times and therefore found it to be routine...

To Claus, he decided to respond in a tone that was slightly more friendly in comparison to the one he'd been using,

"I see. I'm a fan of everything except for... romance novels, and manga. Everything else is great."

"No manga?" The blonde's grin grew a tad smaller. "To each their own, I guess." the grin returned, sunny and friendly as before.

"You two dinguses done? We should get rolling." The elder spoke in a jovial tone.

How rude! The younger blonde thought to himself. He could have at least been a little nicer!
His smile turned to a frown rather quickly. "That's not very nice, you know.."

The man's choice of name for the duo was not something Rei took kindly to, for it insulted his intelligence. For a moment, the expression on his face was one that masked quite a bit of annoyance at having his intelligence insulted in such a manner, though it soon returned to a smirk

If it happened again, however..

"No, I don't care for Manga. I've rarely come across ones that I've actually enjoyed. Mostly because standard Shonen seem to follow the same pattern, I refuse to read Shojou, or Ecchi... and I haven't found any Seninen, Mecha, Supernatural, or Drama that have piqued my interest yet."

"Dude," He chuckled, facing the bluenette as the taller one ushered them inside. "I can feel ya for the Ecchi stuff, but there's some pretty good Shoujo out there. Most of 'em can get really interesting if you're looking for something different, ya know?"

The older blonde fellow chuckled. "You're talking about girly comics? Jeez, I wouldn't mind if the girls were talking about this, but you're, what? Eighteen? And you're talking about it? Ah well, no room to judge. My apologies, kiddo." He grinned a simple grin, his teeth showing.

"..."

To be honest, Rei had to agree with the older man, for once. Even if some Shoujo wer interesting as the blonde had said, now was neither the time nor place for such a thing. Though, the disrespect that was shown towards both himself and the Englishman would not be tolerated much longer.

"Can we not discuss such things, Claus? Thanks. Hm, what about the other genres I mentioned? What can you tell me about those, I mean... anything that really stands out besides the copy and pasted storyline and over-dramatic art style of Shonen, of course."

The blunette ran his fingers through his hair lazily as they walked and talked.

Claus's jaw dropped.
"Cut and paste?" He mumbled to himself in disbelief.
"Well, bud." he started his long winded rant on shonen manga of interest, puting quite the bit of detail on the differences of plot objects, making sure to put extra emphasis on studio gynax's works.
"-Gann was an excellent kind of super robot series," He continued after a good ten minutes of droning.
"All about manlyness and growing up. Speaking of growing up, FLCL is one of the best anime I've ever seen! It's a tad surreal at times, but it's nothing but sweet dream fuel, I promise."

At this point, the senior had gotten fed up with the other blonde's rambling. Thankfully, the stop they were looking for was directly ahead of them.
