For a moment, Tesk second guessed whether to take the velvety chocolate, wondering if it was made from coco in the human world, or something else. But Tesk assured himself such a concern was not only irrational, but rude, and opted to take a piece of chocolate. It wasn't until Veronica had stopped speaking that he decided to eat it though. It was chocolate alright. "Do you remember when that portal first opened up?" Tesk asked rhetorically. "I remember watching that shit on TV. It stopped the entire world in its tracks." He paused, taking in a good hard look of the Headmaster to try and get a read on her, before continuing to elaborate. "I was seven years old when that happened. It wasn't a goal of mine to end up here, but I knew from that moment that I wanted to be with monsters. I can't explain it. It was just a feeling then. But as I grew up-. . .I began to realize that-. . . . Humans are just-. . . . ." Tesk paused again, looking at the chocolate for a moment, thinking about what to say next. ". . .Do you know how we make that chocolate? It's fucked up. And here I am. Enjoying it," Tesk laments out loud as he takes another piece to pop into his mouth, savoring it's sweetness. "Monsters, for the most part, are pretty honest about themselves." He says with a small smack of the lips, finally finishing his chocolate. "Ya'll take pride in being yourselves. What we consider morally abhorrent about humans, ya'll usually consider it to be just a fact of life. Ya'll dont hide the ugly, you wear it as a badge of pride. Us Humans on the other hand? We hide that shit as much as we can," Tesk said with a forlorn sigh. He hadn't realized, not until then at least, just how badly he needed to get all of that off his chest. Or how much that sweet chocolate helped sooth him during this interview. As the seconds passed, and as this reality began to set in, a faint hint of pink would spread across his cheeks when he noticed his rambling. Instinctively, he hides the bottom his face with a hand. "I guess I just want a place I can be myself for once", Tesk finished with a fully realized blush, adverting his gaze from Veronica's and to the floor for a moment.

Tesk stopped in his tracks and blinked, surprised to see the doors open when they did. He pulled out his phone, checked the time, and saw that they opened right on time. The display got an impressed huff as he slid his phone into his pocket, and stepped forward to the door. He was mindful not to cross its threshold, to show respect, until invited in by the Headmaster. Once inside, he couldn't help but start turning his head every which way to look around. Tesk was of decent height for a human, around 6'0 feet and lithe in build, and when he flicked his head about his long ponytail would bounce around with him. But perhaps the most striking thing in the room to Tesk, besides the architecture, was the Headmaster herself. Her brilliant white hair and crimson eyes caused Tesk to pause for a moment, before blinking away his mystifaction and taking a seat across from Veronica. "Most call me Mr. Watawa, but Tesk works just fine here," he said, casually correcting the Headmaster. "It's good to meet you Ms. Parnacel. You're running quite the establishment here," Tesk adds with a respectful nod, hinting to his amazement. "I'm honored to be in such a monumental place."

@Matty @JennyDK [Start Scene] Tesk walked around a large sanguine room, his posture well mannered and confident, arms craddled behind his back. But there was a hesitancy to every step he took. This place seemed so similar to something in his human world, but there was this slightly inhuman aspect to it. It was extravagant, like it was trapped in a lost time of decadence. But beneath that was an odd feeling. Like everything was two inches to left of where it belonged. It was definitely different from a U.S. ambassadors office, Tesk had decided. One of his trainers had told Tesk to expect such an uneasy feeling when first admirst with monster, and that it would pass, but it didn't change the fact that this was his first time coming face to face with monsters. He still couldn't believe the sheer diversity of them, in shape and breed. It all had him excited and terrified all at the same time, and he was doing everything he could to cover that up. Tesk was an experienced secratary, and he had come well dressed, and well prepared, so he was confident he will succeed with his interview. But a part of him still couldn't help but be on edge. It was like his fight-or-flight instincts were waiting on the edge of their seats, just waiting for something to make him jump.

I don't think I saw anything saying otherwise

Yeahhh. I guess I could just make a customer chara anyways? And if I still need to make a staff chara I could do that too

Oh I checked. Every members character is staff

Howdy! I'd like to make a character here, but I see there's a lot of staff characters already. Do I still need to make to make a customer character or would it be okay just to make the latter?

Name: Tesk Watawa Position: Secretary Age: 32 Race: Human Sex: Male Personality: Tesk is two parts fire, one part air an all parts a walking-talking furnace. There isn't much of a difference between his rational mind and his emotions, making him prone to giving to them quite easy. However, Tesk is still quite cerebral, so he does his best to remain composed, opting for tact. If he can help it, that is. This is most obvious when being flirted with. He can take charge in the midsts of intense negotiations, and he thrives in the anxiety of covert office politics, he can even throw a pretty decent right hook. But throw a midly flirtatious charmer at him and all composer begins to melt away. In a nut shell, Tesk is intelligent, observant, philosophical, charismatic, instinctual, tactful and empathetic. But at times can be stubborn, volatile, sassy, emotional and melodramatic. Abilities: [1] Adept organization/Logistical skills Being a Secratary, Tesk has to possess powerful skills of long-term planning and strategising. While he's a moderately decent tactician, his real prowess lays in his ability to plan ahead. [2] Powerful Skills of Observstions There aren't too many details to fly under the radar for Tesk. For the most part. Of course there are things WELL out of his perceptions, but so long as he isn't distracted, he is paying close attention to anything within his five senses. [3] Specialized Training Just prior to his employment at the Monster Academy, Tesk was given training by specialists in specific areas of combat, those being; hand-to-hand combat, firearms training in both close and medium range combat, as well as physical and mental conditioning for paranormal or psychic attacks. While by no means an expert, he's been taught to fight smart, quick and dirty, so he's no slouch. [4] Fast Reflexes Tesk just has fast reflexes. It's not something he really honed, not until his training, it was just a sort of thing he was born with. When working on things, something might fall and he'd suddenly catch it. Or fists thrown at him seem unusually slow. That sort of thing. Nothing inhuman though. [5] High Intelligence Tesk is well studied, but he's quick on the uptake as well. He went from working as a secretary for an ambassador to Beijing to being the secretary to Monster Academy, meaning he had to learn a number of different cultures and bits of languages to do so. This means he's quick to learn in most areas of life, but that doesn't make him any less stubborn.

Ngl, was kinda hoping we ( @JennyDK, you, I and whoever else wanted to), could plot something out together? Since we're looking to introduce our characters around the same time, I thought maybe this might be a good opprotunity to do that ;;>>

Mk! I just had my Thanksgiving so ill go ahead and give everything a once over before making a character. Should I dm you if I have any questions or is here just as fine?

Cap'n! I have questions! Like a lot of questions actually << Like, how defined are these staff positions and how much I making up for them? Such as the history teacher, is there lore here that id use or would I'd be making it up? Or the librarian, can i say that I'm a spirit who haunts/maintains it? Etc etc. Just wondering about the possibilities here so I can decide what might interest me the most

Aye aye cap'n!

Honestly I think it's a great idea. It's a good way to keep things fresh and alive. And it sounds like a fun way to get different characters to interact, i imagine itll have some pretty funny moments. When I hosted a club, the idea of fun events like that never crossed my mind, so I'm definitely stealing that if I ever host one again lol As for the staff positions, what positions are open exactly? Are there like, actual positions to fill in, like PE coach or w.e? Or is it more like there's a numerical limit to the amount of staff and there's a few slots open? Asking for reasons >>

Ahhh, I'm excited! I'm definitely gonna have to check out the staff roles, and then your characters, cause a 3 person scene sounds great =D

Thank yooouuuu~~~ I've got two characters that I think could work here, so I should be fine just copying over ya'lls character templates. Unless there's a limit on how many characters we can have? Besides that I think I just need help getting into the rp since I don't wanna just interrupt or join into an ongoing one. I hate when characters just appear lol. Maybe since @Kitsuyumia and I are both getting into this we could use that as an opprotunity to introduce some new characters together? Food for thought?
