☋1 [action; hallway near the lobby area?]
[ Rock practically stuck out like a sore thumb as he wandered down the halls of the Garden, his distinct metal footsteps almost as attention-grabbing as the blue metallic armor he was wearing. Not that he was paying attention to any of that right now, what with the course catalog he was currently skimming through as he walked. Of course, it probably wasn't a good idea to not look where he was going, but right now? Looking through all the classes this place had to offer was working to be a good distraction. A distraction he needed.
After all, when you go from being stuck inside the deactivated core of a dying synthetic planet, to being stuck in an alternate dimension thanks to a time compression caused by a sorceress? You need a little bit of time to process all that without making your head hurt. Especially when the entire situation is explained to you all at once. ]
... The classes look nice, at least. [ Pause, as he turns the page. ] I wonder what the Professor would think...

What are you thinking about taking?

Huh? Oh, uh... I guess I'm not sure yet. I've never actually formally been to school.

That makes two of us. Growing up in a forest close to farmlands doesn't lend itself well to school. I'm Ryu.

My name's Rock. Rock Volnutt. It's nice to meet you, Ryu!
no subject
It's nice to meet you, Rock. I promise, you'll get used to this place... eventually. I still haven't yet.

bb, i'll be slow tagging, going on hiatus for con~
But annie hu. A certain sound pings her attention. What's this? More metal? She hurries around the corner, tapping her foot against the floor to get a better view of the newcomer. nfgjdfgnfjkd A metal suit? oh my freaking spirits.
So. With a determined stride, Toph walks up to Rock, stopping and pointing at him.]
You! How in the world did you metalbend that kind of suit?!
S'COOL /o/
H-Huh?? What do you-- [ Okay, he could KIND OF guess she was talking about his armor. But that one word was throwing him off. Metalbend? ] ... Are you talking about my armor?
no subject
[Stomp stomp stomp. Toph has no concept of personal space at the moment, so she's prodding at his armor with a finger, not looking at him.]
It's really nice craftsmanship; even I can't get my metal armor that smooth when I do it!
no subject
Um... t-thanks? I guess? [ And now back to that one word. ] What did you mean by 'metalbend' though?
no subject
You're welcome.
[Pause, and she steps back, looking at something like you've grown a second head.] You don't know what metalbending is? [Wait, it clicks in three, two...]
Lemme just show you. [Oh man. Commander Leonheart better not come around, otherwise he was going to kill her. A few simple and practiced movements, and a piece of the metal wall comes outward.]
That is metalbending.
1/2
And stare.
And stare.
To say that Rock had been left wide-eyed and speechless would've been an understatement right now. ]
W-Was that... [ A piece of the wall coming out of the wall seemingly on its own accord? Yes. ]
2/2
[ Congratulations mysterious short girl, you've officially distracted Rock from all the worries that came from the headmaster's explanation of the situation. You are now officially the best person ever. ]
How'd you do that??
no subject
Metal is just refined earth, right? I'm an Earthbender. I can move the earth.
