(Mind slowing down a bit, some of us have college and it's very hard to keep track of others posts, when other people are zooming. Give some other people a chance to respond please. Please and no offence.Please, and sorry. It's just really unfair to the other people who want to participate in the thread. Thank you and once again, I didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings, just please slow down a bit.)

Twilight looked at Yu. "Sagitarus." she said calmly. "It's also refered to as the archer." she said calmly looking at Yu. She knew alot about the signs down to the planet connected, the element connected, emotions, color, stone, lucky day, and lucky number. She gave a light smile. "If you prefer, to do yours, I got all the signs information memorized." Yu asked with a smirk, "Do you know the story of Sagittarius?" Yu said as he opened his book to the constellation, "His name was Chiron, a centaur. Most of the centaurs were regarded in myth as bestial--they were, after all, half horse. However, the ancient Greeks had a great deal of respect for the horse, and so were reluctant to make the centaurs entirely bad. In fact, Chiron was renowned for his gentleness. He was an excellent archer, musician, and physician, and tutored the likes of Achilles, Jason, and Hercules." He then continued as he showed the story of the constellation, "Chiron, however, was accidentally shot and wounded by Hercules. The arrow, which had been dipped in the poison of the Lernaean Hydra, inflicted great suffering on Chiron--so great, in fact, that even the talented physician could not cure himself. In agony, but as an immortal unable to find release in death, Chiron instead offered himself as a substitute for Prometheus." Yu continued as the story was being told, "The gods had punished Prometheus for giving fire to man by chaining him to a rock. Each day an eagle would devour his liver, and each night it would grow back. Jupiter, however, had at the request of Hercules agreed to release Prometheus if a suitable substitute could be found. Chiron gave up his immortality and went to Tartarus in place of Prometheus; in recognition of his goodness, Jupiter placed him in the stars." Twilight listened to his story with quite fascination. Even if she had heard it before, she was fascinated in hearing the myth of Chiron again. It was one of her favorites. "Fascinating. I see you know your mythology." she said with a smile. |

Yu made a small sad grin and said as he looked like he was thinking of the past, "Well, my father...he told me the stories of the stars. It made me happy..." He wished he could see his father and mother again and only if the fire hadn't start and maybe he wouldn't have a frozen heart he then realize what he was doing and said as he frowned, "But that was a lifetime ago..." |

Jim gave Honey Lemon a sly smile as she came over to him. "Hey yourself." He said with a slight grin. She was fairly cute and if her name was anything to go by, she was probably rather a sweet girl as well. There was also the fact that she was blond, he didn't know why but he had always had a soft spot for blonds. "So it looks like we're partners, shall we find a table?" Jim said as he playfully offered his arm to Honey Lemon, smirking as he did so. "I guess that's one way to put it." Jim said with a smile. If one thing was certain, it was that this girl had a lot of energy. He couldn't help thinking that it was kind of cute and somewhat endearing as he led Honey Lemon over to an unclaimed table. "So which sign should we do? Do you have a favorite?" Jim asked Honey Lemon as he pulled out her chair for her with a slight smirk. |

When she saw that he was flirting with her, she gave out a blush again and saw that he did look friendly to work with. She thought that this guy was definitely going to be a great working partner, as long as they were doing work, and not cooing the whole entire class. He heard his comment on the two of them working together, and she nods. "Yes, we sure are. Isn't this exciting?!" She comments, and slowly scoots her arm into his. "I guess that's one way to put it." Jim said with a smile. If one thing was certain, it was that this girl had a lot of energy. He couldn't help thinking that it was kind of cute and somewhat endearing as he led Honey Lemon over to an unclaimed table. "So which sign should we do? Do you have a favorite?" Jim asked Honey Lemon as he pulled out her chair for her with a slight smirk. He did look really nice to work with and she chuckled at the cute looking guy. "Yeah, I know. I like working with partners. The more the better!" She said, and follows him to a table where distraction won't occur. She quickly scans through her book and heard his question about what sign she wanted to do. He saw his smirk and quickly sat down and looks through the book again. So many signs means so many ideas. "Um, I..." She stuttered and felt her heart beating as she saw that smirk again. "Gemini does sound interesting.." She responds and shows him the ideas that they could use to write. "How about you?" She asked, with a heavy blush appearing onto her face. |

She asked, with a heavy blush appearing onto her face. Jim frowned thoughtfully as he sat down and thought about the answer to Honey Lemon's question. Before he answered her though, Jim decided he wanted a better look at her book for information. In order to see it better, Jim gently placed his hand over Honey Lemon's and pulled the book closer towards him. After a few moments of quickly reading and scanning the book for information, he nodded. "Gemini definitely sounds cools. I think it could be neat to research Libra as well." He said, his hand still resting on Honey Lemon's. |

He said, his hand still resting on Honey Lemon's. She saw that he wanted to learn at the same time as she did, which was a nice sign, and even wanted to look at the book for further information, which is another good sign of a good partner to cooperate with. She felt her hand being touched by his, and she felt herself blushing, as she did not expect his skin to be really gentle. She then saw that he was scanning for more information regarding the sign that they want to write about. He saw that his idea was about writing about Libra, and she nods. "Well, Libra does sound pretty cool to write about." She said, agreeing with him on his part. She still felt his hand touching hers, and the heavy blush was coming back, but, did not want to create an embarrassing scene for the both of them in the class, especially in front of the professor. |

"AQUARIUS?!" His eyes widened in shock of the star sign as his voice boomed all over the room that he could saw some got jumped because of his voice, he clasped both of his hands to his mouth and sunk down to his seat in embarrassment. He looked at Tadashi and gave him a sheepish smile "Sorry...I just got a little excited." He quickly flipped to the pages of his notebook to find the Water Carrier, Aquarius. "I've never met a person who has Aquarius before. The books I read from Greek Mythology that Aquarius is used to be the Trojan Prince Ganymede, it's said that he is the MOST HANDSOME AND ATTRACTIVE of all men in his years that the God of Thunder Zeus got attracted by him also. He said that no human or god would have him ever, he even KIDNAPPED him to give Ganymede immortality and given a job as the cupbearer of the Gods. I am a little bit confused why boys are attracted to him rather than girls, though." He rested his chin over his hand in thinking of the reason, then he flipped the pages to where Pisces, the Fish Constellation was written in. "My sign is Pisces, my sign was after yours. I've read that Aphrodite and Eos are trying to get away from a monster named Typhon, they turned into fishes so they can escape. They tied their tails with a cord so they wouldn't get separated from the currents while they were swimming, lucky them." He sighed in sadness, until suddenly he realised something from the two signs like they have something in common. "Mr. Tadashi, both of our signs has something to do with wind and water! And no, your sign isn't completely involved with water because you only CARRIED water not BEING water. My sign involved when...getting in the water? Hmm...but there is one problem, which one of out zodiac signs should we choose? It can't be both, it's against the rules..." He placed his head to his table facedown, his mind was throbbing a little painfully for the first time. A thing called "Stress" is the one he just experienced for the first time in his life. He saw that this student got really excited over the fact that he was an Aquarius and he slightly chuckles. He thought that this kid got excited over anything, just like his brother, as he could imagine him and Hiro getting excited in Callahan's class. He heard him apologizing for getting excited and he gave out another slight chuckle and pats his back. "Hey, no biggie. Nothing wrong with getting excited." He said, with a small smile. He then hears him describing what that star symbol in Greek Mythology and he nods, and it did sound like it was a lot of information than he learned before he came to this class, and as he nods, he gives the boy an impressive smile. "Wow, you sure know your Mythology." He comments, and playfully gives him a wink. He then hears his sign being Pisces and hears him talking about another mythical story, which did sound really relatable to the lesson that the professor was giving out and he was right, by the sound of them, they do sound like they have more in common! "Hm, you're right, they do sound like they are similar alright.." He said, and as he heard his question, he thought about it and decided to go with Scorpio. "Scorpio." He suggested and wrote notes down from the both of them to show the professor. "I have a question though. Just how exactly are we going to show it? She said we have to use technology to tell their story, we just don't know how." Boboiboy asked Tadashi with a new problem. Choosing signs would be easy, BUT SHOWING IT is another story. Prices, Aquarius, and then Scorpio are all connected to water. Now if water is the element of the signs, then they have to show it by using water. This is tricky. Storytelling would be nice to the students in showing it, maybe showing art? "Mr. Tadashi, have you heard of paper marbling? It's like painting with water as a canvas. Maybe we can show the story of Scorpio by that, a little modern technology would help too. If that is okay with you..." |
