Uri feels a bit nauseated at the thought of being up so high. Even with the invisible forcefields making it "safe," (Uri watches a guy get absolutely blasted by a gust of wind, sail through the air until colliding hard against the forcefield, and fall smack onto the rock. Then, he gets up and laughs as if nothing happened), the thought of being literally in the sky makes Uri want to fall back down and hug the rock again. He gulps, pushing his fears away. If everyone else can do this, he can too. "I want...full contact!"

The boy nods and sets Sneasel on the ground.
"The rules are pretty simple. We fight until either one of us surrenders, or one party is completely defeated. We'll only be allowed to send out one monster. No switch outs. I'm ready to start whenever you are."

Uri decides to fight with Moxie! He and she spread out a bit and get into their battle stances. That weasel thing looks pretty fast, so Uri braces himself for its attack.

Sneasel takes the initiative, bolting closer to moxie for what seemed to be a swift strike. Instead, it abruptly stopped, looked moxie over, and just chuckled to itself, which puts Moxie into a rage Moxie was hit with taunt and is now enraged The boy followed his companion at a distance and laid out a large frozen domain, engulfing the field in frigid ice and snow. It is now Uri and Moxie's turn

Uri and Moxie both work in sync, targeting the boy! Uri sends a shower of stars to sail through the air and strike...um... (wait...what is his name?? oops.) Moxie takes his idea and casts a small bushel of leaves like throwing knives to hit Mr. Let it Go.

At the first strike of stars, the boy strikes up a long ice shield that soaks up the attack for him. He would be proud, if the attack wasn't followed by an equally painful series of powerful leaves. His body is covered in cuts, but he still sands. Both the weasel and the boy converge onto Moxie, striking with a pair of ice attacks 30 special ice damage
30 physical ice damage
both to Moxie Uri's turn

The fight ensued as described in PBP. The boy may have been confident in his capabilities, but then he realized that alot of his strategy relied on people moving towards him . . . which Uri and Moxie didn't need to do.
Before Uri could land the final attack on frost boy, Sneasal took initiative and dove between him and the attack. As soon as the frost boy saw his friend take damage, he immediately put up his hands to end the fight
"WAIT! STOP! We surrender ok? You win."
Sneasel is NOT content with the situation, but he can't do much to stop it. Besides, the boy was clearly hurt pretty badly, even after a potion, so he let it be. Sneasel walked over and helped give the boy a bit of support and walked him over to Uri
"You deal alot of damage don't you?"

Uri scratches the back of his head, kind of embarrassed. "Yeah...sorry about that. You're not too bad yourself." He gets on Frosty the Snowman's other side to help support him. "Moxie, you did GREAT! Especially against a double-disadvantage." Then, he seems to remember something. He says to Frosty "Wait- I don't think you ever told me your name??"

The boy looks up to Uri
"You never asked."
Bedwyr manages to find a table that has yet to get any other visitors. Ms Pink has picked up a number of meaty sausages still dripping with blood, and covers them in egg yolk and guacamole.
As for Secus, who had managed to keep to his lonesome effectively thus far, he feels minor, but distinct tremors in the ground below him. Soon, a large orc, easily over 7 feet tall stomps to a seat across Secus, shaking the whole table as he drops his entire weight on it. He then proceeds to eat his weight's worth in pancakes

Uri looks back at the boy, blankly. "Oh. I offered you my name without being asked, I figured you'd do the same. But if that's what you want, then would you mind telling me your name, pretty please?" he says playfully.

"It's North. Mom named me that in case I ever got lost."
It's becoming clear that North has trouble with social skills

As the table shakes with the approach of the newcomer, and orange that Secus had taken from the counter begins to roll away. He quickly catches it, before looking the large humanoid over. The wood elf stands, and then bows to the orc, saying, "Salutations sir, I am Secus Aeger. It is a pleasure." The appearance of this stranger was unexpected, but that was no reason to let manners lapse.

The orc cocks a brow at the wood elf.
"DaHell is wrong with you boy?"
The orc's voice is deep and bellowing. Very intimidating

with his plate having a mix of eggs, fruit and grains Bedwyr looks at Pink's food choices and cocks an eyebrow "Aiming for the Orc diet I see.'

"I appreciate your concern," Secus says in response to the orc's query, "but I assure you I am in good health." Secus doesn't mind people asking why he looks the way he does, the only problem is that he doesn't really know enough about the condition to explain it himself. "I have been this way for a year now. At first it was strange, but I do not often experience negative symptoms."

Uri helps North back into the school, then heads back to the rec room to grab whatever's left at the food bar and looks for Secus and Sorin. He wonders excitedly when classes are going to start!

Sorin squints up at the orc, that was rude, though not exactly unwarranted. Secus looked weird for a wood elf, Sorin had thought he was a kin at first, if he were to be honest with himself. Though he didn't know what animal had glowing purple veins, probably some creature in the depths of the oceans and seas. He felt like he should speak up, but honestly, he was far more preoccupied with the fact Mimikyu has a LIVE BIRD! "What are you gonna do with the bird?"
Sorin felt like he should stop it before it summons the gates of the netherworld, but honestly, would that really be so bad? Maybe he could find some new acts for Cirque Astra! Sorin kinda hoped that was what he was doing now.

Ms Pink takes a full sausage in one gulp.
"Orcs are one of the strongest races in the world, and have an unnaturally high level of endurance and stamina. Perhaps they're onto something"
Uri walked pretty close to the table, where a new orc companion seemed to be sitting, but notices something tugging at his sleeve. It would seem North is hanging on the end of it. Uri has heard of this sort of thing in ducks. Has North imprinted onto him?!
Back at the table with Secus and Sorin, The Orc takes more bites of his breakfast
"Not THAT nonsense. Look at me, I'm a green bean giant from hell. I'm the LAST person to be weirded out by appearances. I'm asking about that weird way you speak."
Mimikyu's puppet head makes direct eye contact with Sorin, then the live bird goes under the hood, letting out high pitched wails of agony before being silenced by a bonechilling snap

Uri regards North for a second...then seems to accept his new friend. "Come on, let's sit down." He takes a seat next to Secus (let's not sit next to mister scary orc...) and watches the interaction between them, munching on an apple. Moxi rests in his lap.

"Orcs are pretty strong no mistake there but they pay for that strength in their physiology. They consume more meats then most races because they burn more caloric energy then most races. In turn the enhanced caloric burn both enhances their physique and strength but burns away at the end of their life's candle. An orc might get, at max, to what a dwarf would consider his long-bearded age before passing if all things were optimal. But most fail to out-age humans." Bedwyr outlines to Ms. Pink. How other species ticked was always a favored past time for Bedwyr. Even if he had a sinking feeling about what the angel's little 'toy' had brought about, he relished in the chance to 'talk shop' as it were
