You decide to go talk to some of the students. After all, it'll be a good idea to get to know your potential classmates.

"Hey Dad, I'm just going to take a quick walk." You say, getting out of your seat.

Dad just nods absentmindedly as reads the latest reports of whatever he's in charge with. Typical.

You stand up from your seat and begin to wander to the closest student you see.

>>25269773
The Lannisters are obscenely wealthy. In fact, the kingdom is in debt to them by a good deal at the start of the first book. This is due to the vast amount of gold produced by the Westerlands, which they control. Thus, the oft-repeated jape that Tywin Lannister shits gold. In the end, he does not, as Tyrion can attest.

The first student you see seems pretty laid back. He's wearing a jacket over his regular school uniform, and looks like he's itching for the train ride to end already. You take a deep breath to gather some courage.

"Hey." You just barely manage to say.

"Huh? Oh, hey there." The other student says, now snapped out of his daydream zone.

"I'm Matthew Wellings. I going to Lanseal. You going there, too?" You ask.

"Yeah, I guess." The student shrugs, then reaches out to shake yours. "Luke MacMillan, though you can just call me 'Mac'."

"Nice to meet you, Mac." You say, returning the handshake.

>What do you want to talk about?

>>25269955

>>25270125
Moorcock references really aren't appropriate to the setting, sadly.

>>25269955
"So where do you come from?" You ask him.

"Ah, up north. Nothing special, really." Mac shrugs. "Lots of marsh and forest, and that's pretty much it. You?"

"Well, I live near Randgriz. Part of my dad's job, after all. He's a colonel -I mean- general in the army now."

"Whoa, dealing with royalty here." Mac whistles. "Should I start calling you Milord or something?"

"Nah, nothing like that." You laugh. "My dad actually worked his way up the ranks. Spent half his life in the service."

"That is some dedication right there." Mac nods sagely. "So why are you headed for Lanseal?"

"Well, uh, to make my family proud, I guess. I'm the first in our family to qualify." You say. "My family's mostly military, so it's a huge deal for us. How about you?"

Mac's eyes glint with a evil light.

"Why, the girls, of course!" He grins."Lanseal's supposed to have a lot of hotties enrolled there. And a lot of them have huge, well, you know..."

Mac makes a gesture over his chest with both his hands, making it plainly obvious what he's talking about.

"I-is that all?" You ask, a bit bewildered.

"Matthew, it's every man's duty to woo the girl with the shortest skirt and the biggest boobs!" Mac says proudly. "That way we can ensure future generations of Gallians will be strong enough to protect this country!"

"Riiiiggght." You nod awkwardly

"Well, I was a pretty good shot on the range, so I think I'm going to be a sniper as well." You say.

"Hey, fellow sniper bro!" Mac high fives you. "Hey, if we ever get in the same class, we totally have to pair up. We'd be the perfect sniper team!"

"Yeah, sure." You grin.

Suddenly, a loud squealing sound as the train hits its brakes signifies that the trip is over. You wait until the train comes to a full stop before saying your goodbyes to Mac and returning to your old seat.

"Hey man, remember, if you need someone to hook you up with the ladies, just find me!" Mac winks.

"Yeah... sure." You say as you return to your seat. Dad has already gotten up.

"This is as far as I go, Matthew. I know you wanted me to accompany you all the way to the academy, but something's come up and I need to return to Randgriz right away." He says.

"So, I guess this is goodbye then?" You ask.

"For now. Just remember what I've taught you. And remember to write me and your sister."

"I know, Dad."

"Good." Dad nods for a second before locking you in a bear hug. "Be safe, Matthew."

"I will, Dad." You say, returning the hug.

You both stay in the embrace for several seconds until both of you realize that Dad's guards are staring at you. He promptly releases you, brushes himself off, and salutes you.

"Oh yes, I almost forgot." He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a note. "It's from Samantha. Apparently you are to read it before you reach Lanseal."

You take the note and salute your father.

After the train leaves, you find yourself feeling amazingly lonely. The other students have already left for the academy, leaving you to make the journey up alone as well.

No sooner than the train leaves than you grab the envelope and tear it open. It's rare to get mail from Sam, especially since she's apparently globe trotting with that friend of hers. ("Not my boyfriend!" She'd always yell before punching you in the gut.)

In is all the usual. She misses you and Mom and Dad, and she's having all sorts of adventures, and getting paid for it as well. You're a bit glad that she managed to find a place of her own after leaving the house.

However, at the end of the letter, you see some curious words.

>Oh yeah, and me and Jager and sending over a friend of ours to Lanseal as well! Her name's Artya by the way. Make sure you look out for her! It's the first time she's been to an academy like Lanseal, much less Gallia. You'll be able tell who she is by the mask!

And unfortunately, even though you wanted to get there early, you end up getting lost anyways. Well, this was a GREAT way to start off the day...

You wander the halls aimlessly, not even finding any other students around you can ask for directions. Looking out the window, you can see another student in the courtyard below, his dark red hair contrasting against the white stones.

"HEY!" You yell down. "You have any idea where the Test Room is!??!"

"I HAVE NO IDEA! I'M LOST TOO!" The other student yells back. "GOOD LUCK THOUGH!"

The student below gives you a thumbs up and really stupid looking grin. Well, at least he was friendly enough.

Wandering aimlessly again, you eventually come across some sort of commotion. You see one student being cornered by five others, all female. Curious, you move a little closer to try and overhear their conversation.

"Ewwww, she smells even WORSE than a Darcsen!"

"What kind of peasant clothing is that? How'd you even get into this school?"

Well, you couldn't let this stand. If Dad taught you anything, it was to never let injustice happen on your watch, especially if you had the means and ability to stop it.

"Hey! There you are!" You say, casually sliding through a gap in the wall of bullies, taking the masked girl's hand, and pulling her through. "I've been looking all over for you! We need to get to the testing room right now or we'll be late!"

The masked girl cocks her head curiously, takes one quick look at you and then the bullies, and decides to take her chances with you, allowing you to pull her away from the little clique of mean girls.

"EXCUSE ME." One of the girls, obviously the leader, steps out. "If you must know, this... 'person' is violating one of the school rules. She must be wearing the Lanseal uniform at all times."

You take a look at the masked girl, and you can clearly see that she's wearing the uniform, though it's mostly hidden under the hooded poncho she is also wearing. But it's still there.

We're the son of Tywin Lannister. Our options are either being an epic swordsman with serious problems, or being the snarkiest mother fucker on the planet.

Is there a way to politely snark at her?

"Well, she IS wearing the school uniform, and before you say anything about her mask and poncho, there is no rule against anything worn in ADDITION to the uniform." You say with the utmost confidence. Dad made you read the school rules every night, after all. "Then again, I can't blame you. It must be amazingly hard to see anything in front of you with those twin peaks on your chest."

The words take a while to sink in, but the lead bully's face suddenly turns a crimson red when she realizes what you just implied.

"Y-YOU PERVERT! RUFFIAN! PEASANT!" She yells.

Her wingmates soon begin closing in, with very aggressive looks on their faces. Even though they're girls, they're still Lanseal students, which means they could probably kick your freshman ass in a fight. Plus, even with your "friend", they still outnumber you pretty badly.

"Well..." You say, the adrenaline surging through you blood is making your mind race like lightning. "My most sincerest thanks my lady. I know quite well what I am, but you forgot AWESOME! HEROIC! CLASSY AS HELL! Shall I tell you what you truly are?'"

The girls pause, confused by what you just said. Hell, you're not even sure what you just said. But achieves the current objective of causing them to hesitate, giving you the window you need to FLEE LIKE THE WIND, cackling like a madman, your hand still gripped on the masked girl's. Under your own laughter, you can hear an odd, rasping noise which you assume is her way of laughing as well.

Whether by miracle or pure dumb luck you manage to find the testing room, with time to spare. You and your partner take seats at the very back of the class, in case the bullies managed to follow you. However, those fears prove to be baseless, as they never appear.

"Whoa, that was a close one." You sigh. "Actually, I never caught your name."

The masked girl slips you a note, obviously prewritten.

HELLO MY NAME IS ARTYA. IT IS NICE TO MEET YOU.

"Ah, my name's Matthew Wellings." You say. "My sister Sam sent you here, didn't she?"

Artya nods rapidly and hands you another note.

SHE IS AMAIZING. AND SCARY. MOSTLY SCARY

"Yeah, that sounds like her, all right." You laugh.

"So Artya, where are you from? And how did you get into Lanseal?" You ask. You're genuinely curious as to how this masked mystery ended up in one of the most prestigious schools in Gallia.

I COM FROM USTIO. HOME WAS DESTROYED BY IMPERIALS. WAS FIGHTING THEM SINCE VERY YOUNG.

You wince. You know Gallia had it pretty hard during the invasion, but that had barely lasted a year. It sounded like Artya had been fighting all her life, which would explain a lot of things.

"And that mask? Your voice? Were you hurt or something?"

Artya shakes her head.

VOICE BORN LIKE THIS. MASK FOR GOOD LUCK. NEVER DIE WHILE WEARING. PROOF IT WORKS.

"Uh huh..." You frown. You thought Sam's "friends" were quirky from how she wrote about them, but Artya definitely takes the cake.

JAGER STURMFUHRER WAS NICE. CALLED FAVOR FOR ME.

Well, that made sense. Sam's boss was noble born, so he'd have some pull with the school administration.

"So how's Sam been doing?"

Artya pauses for a second before scribbling furiously again.

FIGHTING AND KILLING IMPERIALS. SHE ENJOYS JOB. ENJOYS BEING WITH JAGER. LIKE BROTHER AND SISTER.

The last words stung you a bit. You know Artya didn't mean it, but it reminded you about Tristan's death.

SOMETHING WRONG?

Apparently, your worry showed up on your face.

>Tell her about Tristan.

>>25274000

We just met the girl.

>>25274000
>Tell her about Tristan.

>>25274000

Too early for bonding.

>>25274000
>Tell her about Tristan.
She told us about herself, we tell about ourself.

>>25274000
>tell her about Tristan

>Tell her about Tristan.

Artya's comment might be sort of damning if not for the fact she doesn't know of any real bonds beyond that.

But this is food for thought besides the implication of Sam having some sort of brother complex.

>Tell her about Tristan

>>25274000
>Change the subject
Let's not make the girl feel like shit, she was just sharing.; Any conversation that ends with talking about ex-relatives is one that should be stymied, at least until we're ready.

>>25274000
You debate on telling her. She was still practically a stranger to you, after all, but she's been honest to you so far so you decide to return the favor.

"Tristan was our brother. The oldest. He died last year trying to defend Gallia against the Imperials. We all took it pretty hard, Sam especially." You say.

Artya stays quiet(?) for a while, before writign up a new note.

LOST PARENTS WHEN YOUNG. UNDERSTAND FEELINGS.

"Thanks. And I'm sorry for your loss." You say.

Artya nods.

However, a commotion draws your attention to the door, where you see Mac sauntering in, a palm shaped injury on his cheek.

Alright Mac, time for your first bro test. Do you immediately attempt to seduce the mute gas mask chick?

I have a feeling he ran a foul the same oppai monster that Matt/Artya ran from.

"Hey! Mac! Back here!" You wave at Mac. He catches sight of you and makes a beeline for your desk.

"Hey man, good to see ya!" Mac says.

"Yeah. I see you got a makeover since we last met." You point and laugh at the slap mark.

"Hey man, it's a badge of honor, not a mark of shame!" Mac huffs. "If you must know, this hand mark belongs to the prettiest and most well endowed girl in all of Lanseal!"

"Let me guess. Tall, strawberry blonde, assets that could supply the entire Gallian army twice over?" You ask, an ugly feeling in your stomach.

"H-how did you know?" Mac gapes.

"Just a guess." You shrug.

"Dude." Mac draws you closer in. "I just got slapped out by JULIANA EVERHEART. You know big an honor it is to even be NOTICED by her?"

You take a quick glance back at Artya, who seems to be hoarding pencils and paper.

"Eh, I don't think it's that great." You say.

"Yeah, well, you'll see. Great things are in store for me this year!" Mac grins.

>Warn him that Juliana is kind of a bitch.

Artya looks fine as she is

>>25274455
>Wish him luck.

Wish him luck, he'll find out what he's in for soon enough.

To be honest, I was hoping to meet shy sex hair darcsen but maybe she appears later.

>>25274455
>Warn him that Juliana is kind of a bitch.
>Introduce him to Artya

>Warn him that Juliana a major bitch.

A real bro would warn him of a bad pursuit. Goddamn that sort of thing (just wishing him luck) is something to you do to someone you don't like as much so you can see him suffer, not a true friend.

>>25274455
>>Wish him luck.

May you provide us with many merry amusements.

>>25274455
>>Introduce him to Artya.

>>25274520
MC did say he would try to avoid Class G (i.e. no Magari sadly)

Matt and Mac seemingly confirmed for Tomoya and Sunohara at this rate.

>>25274548
No man like the Clannadman.

>>25274548

>Tomoya and Sunohara

My ribs they are moving on there own.

>>25274455
>>Warn him that Juliana is kind of a bitch.

While he might not listen to us at all, the least we can do is at least warn him.

That way, at least he goes after her with both eyes open.

Also because we can endlessly make fun of him when it goes back and say, "I told you so" constantly.

>>25274633

Goes bad, I meant. Must be far more tired than I thought, my writing is far worse than it usually is.

>>25274455
>>Wish him luck.

Eh, comic relief is comic relief.

>>25274455
"Mac," You say with as much conviction and truth you can muster, "I truly wish you luck on your endeavors."

"Thanks man." Mac grins, then catches sight of Artya. "Hey, who's she?"

"Whoa, you can tell?" You ask, surprised. With the mask and poncho, it was actually a bit difficult to determine her gender.

"Hellooooo, magic eyes, remember? I know a girl when I see one." He squints at Artya, who just stares back at him curiously. "Hmmmm, A, maybe double AA. Knee length skirt. Can't see the face which skews the rating system, but based on existing factors she's not a priority to flirt with."

Artya hands you a note.

IS THAT BAD?

>Yes
>No

>>25274674

I'll be honest, I'd rather have AA than those monsters Everheart is packing. It just looks freaking awkward to me.

>>25274740
My point was not to judge her by her appearance more or less. That and not everyone has massive Metro: Last Light fetishes. Some of us want to see what's behind the mask, even if it's briefly.

>>25274674
>Don't listen to him.

>>25274674
>Don't listen to him.

>>25274674
>Don't listen to him.

First of all, he's walking around with a slap mark on his face. His opinion is invalid.

Second of all, the whole mystery mask thing is totally cool.

>>25274674
>>Don't listen to him.

"You're just fine as you are, don't mind him."

>>25274674
Put a hand on her shoulder, sighing. Nod twice. "Don't worry, Artya. You'll bloom soon enough. It is the twilight of your youth, I see a shining future ahead of you. Just be patient, my dear." Tears stream out of our eyes in sympathy for the poor girl.

>>25274816
That and it's like a reverse trap in a manner of speaking (as one lucky guy would see their feminine side)

>>25274674
"Don't listen to him, Artya. He doesn't know what he's talking about." You say to her before turning back to Mac. "Oh right, I forgot to introduce you. Mac, this is Artya. Artya, this is Mac."

"Hey." Mac gives a friendly wave.

Artya waves back.

"All right, everybody. Sit down and quiet down! Test will begin shortly!" The teacher announces.

The gathered students all scramble for seats.

"You will now be administered the written portion of the entrance exams. This will determine which class you will be sent to. Please answer each and every question to the best of your abilities."

You watch as the teacher hands you the question packet. Picking up your pencil, you take a deep breath and begin.
