Welcome

Jade Mountain Academy welcomes everyone who walks through the doors, whether they are here of their own choice or by order of their queen or parent. All new students and teachers will have received a map of the school, their schedule (prone to change due to the magical nature of the school), and school rules. With the war still fresh in everyone's minds, tensions are still running high, but everyone is doing their best to make Jade Mountain Academy a peaceful place for all tribes. While it may run like a typical school, the unique make-up of students and teachers make it far from typical.

Prompts

Dorm Life

Perhaps you're used the sharing barracks with other soldiers or dragonets, or maybe you've always had your own room. Regardless, now that you're here it is clear you're expected to share your space with others, most likely from tribes other than your own. Whether these dragons will be your best friends or worst nemeses is all up to you. Upon entering the school, you'll be directed to your dormitory to drop off any personal items and meet your future roommates. Each dorm has a designated space for each dragon, but that doesn't mean there won't be squabbles over who gets the bed by the window, or if someone brought their obnoxious pet.

Class is in Session

At the end of the day learning, or teaching, is what you're all here for. Everyone has their own class schedule, but no matter when your class starts you're expected to be punctual. Even the teachers. Especially the teachers. Some classes may be routine lectures, but you never know when you'll have a pop quiz, paired flying exercises, or collaborative art projects. Every day is a bit unique.

A Place of Study

The library is a hub for student activity, with tables and study nooks throughout, and is open at almost all hours. It's a popular spot for study groups, though of course quiet discussion is encouraged so as not to disturb other students. The tall racks of scrolls offer a plethora of reading material on a wide variety of subjects. Though some scrolls may be in higher demand as tests approach, and maybe you weren't the fastest one to check it out. Hopefully the person who was is generous enough to lend you a claw.

Alucard allows himself to feel a little relieved at Professor Raptor's response. There were absolutely worse dragons to run into during these nightly escapes.

Still, some part of him clings to the hope of getting through this without revealing his identity, and he keeps his scales camouflaged even as he answers. "Oh? And what if I were to be honest in admitting I'd rather not say?"
strawberryredgrave: (Oh well.)

"Then I guess I'm taking your word for it. Don't need a lot more than 'Nightwing wants some time out in the night' anyway. You ever tried keeping a Seawing out of the swimming hole? You're not going to." Who is he to deny a dragon their natural element, anyway? Raptor will keep his distance from the wall the other dragon is currently slinking against and makes his way towards the school entrance. The silent invitation to walk with him is paused occasionally so he can serve as a lookout.

"It is a nice night, I'll give you that. Clear skies and everything."

Alucard huffs out a small sigh. Having a conversation with someone while you're camouflaged already feels strange, and the professor could probably figure him out easily enough if he wanted to.

So he drops the pattern to shift back to his usual black and gold scales, stretching out his wings a little now that he doesn't have to hide up against the cave wall. "Hm. Is that what you're doing, then? Going out for a night flight? Or is this school business? Patrolling the area and so on."

He takes a few tentative steps towards him, like he's still not quite certain he's actually getting off so easily.
strawberryredgrave: (I saw how you looked at me.)

"Column A, meet column B." Raptor lightly claps his hands together to go with his statement. Alucard still blends in with the shadows, but the gold scales make it easier to spot. There's a faint nod from the Skywing, the silent appreciation that the student's willing to step out of cover around him. "I'm used to moving around a bunch. Sleep gets pretty erratic because of it and even when I set up base, I wasn't always there. This time, I got obligations. Ain't just me I gotta look out for, you know?"

He's looking up towards the sky lights and the nearest exit while they walk. "Not that everyone needs the help, but a little direction can do a lot for you."
