"O' course I be havin' a map," Rae says pulling it out of her satchel.  "They be right .." she points to room 15, "... Oh...."

"Oh?"  She asked, the level of incredulity and concern in her voice rising in the course of the monosyllable.  "Oh?!"  She blurted more accusatively.  "What were you thinking, taking the map?"  She demanded.  "I... we... We might never see."  She started mumbling under her breath, the perceptive noting that she was counting slowly backward from ten.

"You know,"  she continued after calming herself down.  "They'll be all right."  And more quietly, "They have to be all right."  And again out loud.  "This was a school outing right?  I'm sure there are safeguards, or something."

Rae makes calming motions with her hands, "heave to an' belay that, Marty," she smiles, but her smile is aimed toward Crystalline, making sure the dragon doesn't get agitated.  "We had t' be leavin' t' be gettin' Crystalline out o' that horrible situation she be in.  Besides, it were about t' be gettin' very hot in there, an' she couldn't be near that.  Leo be okay," she continues, then mutters, "but I not be puttin' too much faith in the 'supervision'... Leo be havin' t'Nee an Frances an' Unit an' some new friends. We found the source of the dungeon's turn, an' I be sure they be returnin' t' port any moment now."

"Well, I hope they're safe."  She allowed herself to be pacified.  "That they're all safe."

She gave the dragon more attention.  "I'm sorry."  She told the creature.  "It really is nice to meet you.  I've never met a dragon before, though I've seen them in flight.  And I hear there are several here on campus, but they mostly look like people.  Or so they say.  Can you do that?"  She asked.  "Look like people I mean?"

"Dragons can be lookin' like people?" Rae says surprised.  She folds up her map again and puts it in her satchel as she looks to Crystalline expectantly.

A furball makes itself known by hopping onto Jennifer's shoulder.  Hi!  You smell like fire!  I like fire!

Jennifer gasped, clutching her hand to her mouth as she stared at Blue in wonderment. "Oh by the fiends below! You're adorable!"

Her hands seemed to be twitching as if she wanted nothing more than to grasp hold of the hamster and cuddle it until Sigil itself had fallen from the spire, but her judgement restrained the impulse as best it could. Her hands still twitching, she cleared her throat as she addressed the small bundle of cuteness, there still being a great deal of forced restraint in her tone.

"Hello. My name is Jennifer. It is a pleasure to meet you. I am a devotee of Lord Asmodeus in his role as the lord of the ninth pit and the Master of Hellfire. So that is probably what you are smelling. I... I, would like to ask if you would mind if I pet you? Please?" Anyone could see that Jennifer was approaching the limits of her willpower.

Re: New Kid on the Block

"Helping them attend..." Birenda's face twisted in a combination of reactions. "Rats and bunnies can't attend school! Do you not comprehend the difference between sapient and non-sapient creatures?"
"We're... kind of specialists," Gary adds.

Crystalline, having enjoyed her conversation with Jennifer, but feeling left out of the reunion taking place, answers Rae's question. "It's really the metallics who can take human form at will. There's other magic that can allow it, and some of us seek it out, but it's not innate for chromatics."

Re: New Kid on the Block

Rae frowns at Birenda, "it not be like I actually be readin' yer Articles o' Agreement, how would I be knowin' what yer Code be? I thought Gary could help 'er out, but I be guessin' not."

When Crystalline answers, Rae's dejection grows.  "That be ok. I guess when Marty be sayin' 'people', she be meanin' 'humans' anyway. How borin'... Humans can't fly. Ye're better off in this form anyway."

Finally, she nods toward Jennifer, "D'ye be findin' a new friend f'r Satin?"

Re: New Kid on the Block

Marty listened to the varying threads of conversation, picking up bits from each.  "If hamsters and squirrels can be sentient, I see no reason rats and bunnies can't"  She argued.  "And we have a sentient hamster right here.  - Hi Blue!  You doing okay?"  She looked him over carefully to see how he was recovering while patting herself down in a search of her person and various pockets for something sweet or salty.  She didn't really have the appetite for snacks, so she didn't carry much around unless she planned on heading someplace without restaurants or food vendors.

She found nothing - she reminded herself to carry some cheese or nut snacks in the future.  "Not only sentient, but Blue is enrolled in EssPee."  She added.  "And I recently met a sapient squirrel with lightning powers almost as impressive as Blue's fire talent."

She had to grin at Jen's reaction to Blue.  It was much like her own, or Maki's.  Or most people actually.  "You want to win his heart, give him one or a few of your deviled eggs."  She advised the tiefling.  She addressed Blue then,  "They are great, but really hot!  I mean smoking hot.  Kinda literally, though that might have been steam rising off them and not smoke.  Do you like spicy food?  I figured you might, as much as you like fire."

She switched conversations to interject "Well, humanoid anyway, if not strictly human."  She corrected Rae's impression of what she meant by people.  "And Humanoid is pretty broadly defined according to my Basic Anatomy of Creature Types and Their Vulnerabilities professor.   Who comes up with these class names anyway?  All that class really is, is how to get better sneak damage."

She nodded at Crystalline's reply.  "Well, Leo recently tried to help a dragon - blue I think or maybe green, but those are both chromatic. Anyway this dude had a crush but no game, and Leo tried to help him out.  And if he couldn't learn game from Leo, he's hopeless.  But the point is that this dragon is enrolled, and he's usually in I think elven form.  You should look into how he does it, if for no other reason than convenience getting through doors and tight hallways."

She didn't actually stalk - didn't usually stalk - or track down rumors about Leo.  But there was a whole tablefull of girls that sat together in the cafeteria and talked about little else but Leo, his band, his activities, his whereabouts, and who he'd last been seen with.  She might - occasionally - overhear some of their conversations.

Re: New Kid on the Block

"Oi, Gary, thank ye anyway," Rae says, "Be keepin' me in mind if ye want t' pillage some summoner's collection.  I guess we best be navigatin' our way t' the Administration buildin'." Her ingrained distrust of authority shows through when she says "administration".

She listens as Marty mentions Blue and sapience. She raised her brows but didn't say anything.  It would be terribly rude to ask a sentient being if they were really sentient, but she still was surprised.  Also, Jennifer talked to Blue like he really understood her, so maybe he had said something to her and Rae just didn't hear.
