"Yeah, I was surprised how much we can get away with here, myself." Rust admitted, shrugging. "Though, you gotta admit, it makes sense to be hardasses straight away. What if the guy you just bollocked turned out to have the power to melt brains or something? You'd be scuppered."
Yawning a little, still feeling some grogginess from his evening nap, the mechanic continued to looked around for a bit before hearing Noel's reply.
"Why would it be weird? It's a school, first and foremost. They ain't gonna care that more people want to learn right?"
Chuckling a little at that, Rust continued to search before looking back at Noel, still walking.
"Christ man, how far in did you hide your stuff? We're never gonna find i-OHGODWHY!?"
SLAM! Rust was now face first in the sand, having tripped over Noel's shoes by a tree.
".....Noel, I found your stuff."

He can’t help but look at to Rust at that point of time – everything he had said so far seemed to chase away every bit of worry Noel had and it felt as though Rust was his older brother, someone whom he respects and look up to.
“Mm, point taken.” Noel grinned slightly and continued walking on, thinking of how his class would be like when Rust suddenly yelled.
He turned around just in time to see Rust tripping over his bag. Without even bothering to stop himself, he exploded and laughed so hard tears were beginning to form in his eyes. “W-W-What?!” He tried to speak but it was hard to get the words out of him mouth whilst laughing so hard.
“That was a great fall! I’d totally give you a ten for that graceful fall.”
Noel stopped for a moment and the image of Rust falling repeated in his mind again, and he found himself bursting into laughter again. Trying hard to catch his breath, Noel placed a hand on his stomach and walked towards Rust. With an out-reached hand and a wide grin, “Good job, Rust. I’ll reward you with a cookie later! You’d make a perfect hunt dog.” Noel can’t help but tease him and between laughter, he added on at the end, “just kidding. Thanks man!”

Hearing the mocking laughter, Rust, whilst still neck deep in sand, made the Astral Arm turn towards Noel, curl into a fist and then raise one finger.
It was a very expressive finger.
Picking himself up off the floor, the mechanic's expression was not a happy one. In fact, he was damn near pouting.
"Yeah yeah, laugh it up, Frosty the Snowman," he grumbled. "I already get cookies from a friend of mine so you're gonna need something special if you're gonna beat her."
Shaking his head and spitting out a bit of sand, he accepted the hand up and brushed himself off.
"Well, goddamn it. I now look incredibly lame. And just when I've gotten to the island too. Thought it'd be at least a week until I made a fool out of myself."
Reverting back to his grin, showing the grumbling had been a façade, he tossed Noel his bag and shoes.
"Slip 'em on and let's grab a few drinks. You're paying. Remember the bet?"

[/style] [STYLE=padding: 8px; font-family: arial; font-size: 10px; color: #2D2014; text-align: justify; margin-top: 0px; width: 276px;]Noel laughed when he saw Rust’s finger. He laughed so hard that his cheekbones were starting to ache.
“Frosty the snowman? Man, you have too much childhood. Let’s stick to Iceman, yeah? They should totally send me an invitation to be part of the team for the next Avengers movie.”
He gave a shrug and a wide grin, enjoying how things were going along between him and Rust. It felt as though a thick ice wall was broken down. “Beat her cookies? I’d totally pwn her cookies. I bake mine using ice… And would probably result in you baking cookies for your toilet bowl. But hey, full marks for creativity!”
Noel bent down and picked up his bag and patted a few times to get all the dirt off. “Nay, no worries. I’d totally help you advertise that amazing and beautiful fall you did there to everyone we meet! No worries! Free advertisement for ya.” He paused for a moment and started laughing again. It was so difficult erase that image. It just keeps repeating in his mind!
“Of course, Sir Graceful. It’s all on me. I provide free freezing services for your drinks too.”

"Y'know Noel? Sometimes, you can be a right asshole." Rust grinned at the ice wielder. "But you're the good kind of asshole, so I'll let that one slide."
Dusting the sand off himself, Rust de-summoned the arm, the light vanishing with a whisper of air. Getting used to the darkness again, he wnadered over and patted Noel on the back.
"Now then, let's grab some drinks. And we can talk a bit more about something I've got planned coming up..."
(End topic after you?)

“Were you trying to compliment or insult me? I’m just going to take that as a compliment regardless of which one you meant.”
He bowed a little and held out a hand, imitating a butler, “Definitely. After you, Sir.”
(Sure, x) That was fun, thread again soon!)
