"Well that's good to know, but frankly I'd rather be more prepared than anything if I come across any of them.." Zuko states after being around his father and sister he would like to be prepared for anyone who wasn't exactly a model student, especially if any of them were his roommate or classmates. He just always feels like he needs to be ready for anything after growing up with an abusive and manipulative father and sister for most of his life.
"Ah mischievous, that I can definitely handle that," Catra a bit more laid back and smirks, she was a bit of a troublemaker herself but she wouldn't do anything like pranks at most she'll just bother people she knows if shes bored. Like the cat girl she is.

"Well, the worst they'll do is pull some prank on you or get you into trouble with them. Most of them haven't done anything too dangerous or stupid, but there's always new ones coming around." Blake explained, her cat ears twitching in annoyance as she thought of any new potential troublemakers from the new students, combined with the older ones.
"Honestly, you'll be able to tell who most of them are, because they don't really hide all their chaotic antics, though some of them aren't so annoying." Blake admitted. Considering one of her friends was one of said troublemakers, she had to give Val some credit. At least she didn't anything stupid, like try to bring alcohol into the school.
"I think it's rather funny, as long as no one get's hurt." Akemi said, smiling. Harmless pranks were fine, but she, along with a number of the staff, did not appreciate the more dangerous or humiliating pranks.

Zuko was put at ease seeing that the troublemaker students were too crazy and be easy to spot. It made him relax and he sighs in relief. “Thats good to hear to know that no one has done anything too dangerous or stupid.” The last thing he wanted was to be around anyone willing to do that.
“Really? That's good to know. Now I know I’m definitely gonna really like it here.” Catra smiles in joy. She was excited to try her hand at pranks and see what others have to do as well.

"Yeah, for the most part, just follow the rules, do your best with classes, and it's generally smooth-sailing for most of the year. Generally being the key-word." Blake said, finally sitting back down next to Akemi, letting herself relax for a minute before she headed back to the dorms for a shower.
"And if you're ever hungry, I'll always be willing to cook something up quick!" Akemi said, smiling. Nothing wrong with her making a snack and a bunch of extras for the students, right?

“Well that's good to hear, so I shouldn't have anything to worry about.” Camera smirks and then she starts to wonder about something. “Oh hey, Akemi, do you think the ice cream is done?” Catra was curious in seeing if the ice cream is done or not.
Zuko was gas to see this place is a completely different atmosphere then his old home life. It felt pretty nice to just relax and not worry. “Alright that's nice to know, thanks Akemi.” Zuko smiles softly.

As soon as Catra asked about the ice-cream, Akemi heard the timer she had set in the kitchen go off. "Oh, perfect timing! That's the ice cream right there! Just give me a minute and I'll get it out for you two." Akemi said, getting up. She looked at Blake. "Would you like one, too?"
Blake raised a brow at the mention of ice cream, Akemi had made some ice cream? Probably got a new recipe or something. Might as well try it, Akemi's recipes, her originals or ones shared with her, always ended up being delicious. "Sure, I'd love one. Thanks." The cat-eared girl replied.
The chef headed off to the kitchen, removing the mold from the freezer and taking it to the sink, running part of it under warm water to get a more-clean finish on the ice cream when she pulled it out. After doing that, she moved the mold to the counter and gently removed the ice cream sticks from inside, smiling at the smooth and clean tealish ocean-blue finished product. Placing them on a cold plate, Akemi brought it out to the three students.
"Here we go! Freshly made sea-salt ice cream! Dig in!" Akemi grinned, placing the plate on the table.

Catra looks in awe and smirks as she sees the teal-colored ice cream and picks one up, "Will done, Akemi." Catra smirks and licks it and she immediately starts to let out a soft but noticeable purr, the ice cream was really really good and she smiles brightly a bit. "MMM! This is amazing!" Catra smile happily seeing the wait for the ice cream was really worth it.
Zuko picks up one too and tries it and smiles a bit, it brings back some nice memories he had as he thought back to nice summer memories of his family. "This is great Akemi, I'm certain other students will love this." Zuko smiles as he continues to enjoy his ice cream. And Catra nods with him seeing his very right on this fact and the ice cream is really helping her keep cool since she is a cat person. Though Zuko was a bit surprised to see that Catra was purring he wasn't sure if he should inform her that she purring or not and just decides to let her be happy seeing might not be bothering anyone.

Blake took one of the ice-creams, and taking a small bite, immediately smiles. "Salty..sweet, too. Amazing work on these, Akemi." She said, looking up at the chef. The ice creams were definitely delicious, and she was sure once all the other students knew of them, they'd all come running over for some.
Akemi smiled brightly and clapped her hands in delight. "Oh, I'm so happy to hear you like them! I'll definitely have to make sure to add these to the menu, then." Her friend had given his permission for her to use the recipe for the school, so it was perfectly fine for her to do so. Besides, the most important thing was that the students liked them!
Blake had an amused look upon noticing Catra's purring, but like Zuko, didn't say anything. Some of the students did stuff like that, and nobody had ever really been given trouble for it, well, besides bullies giving people a hard time. But usually, no one made any comments, at least not to Blake and her friends.

Carta smiles a bit, she never really had ice cream before considering her previous Homelife was like it was a great first experience, “Maybe I should take up cooking too if so I can look to make amazing stuff like this.” Carta was joking but was considering maybe taking up some cooking classes. Especially in the future when she eventually does graduate from school. “An you two could join me some cooking!” Catra laughs a bit and takes another lick of the sweet and salty icy treat.
Zuko chuckles a bit at the idea of him cooking he knew his uncle tried to teach him how to cook, and it always ended badly for him. “Ha… Yeah that a big no on that front best leaves that to the professionals.” Zuko states and takes another lick of his ice cream and smiles a bit enjoying it. He really loves how this is all just really nice and relaxing. He just hopes this is how the rest of the year is like.

Akemi smiled. "If you ever want tips or tricks, just come see me! I'd be happy to teach you!" Another person getting interested in cooking is always welcome, in her mind. "I'm sure you'll do well, as long as you follow the recipe." She advised.
"I'm not much of a cook myself, but I know a few people who would be willing to taste-test." Blake chuckled. Val would definitely be fine with free food, and Kuro would be fine with it, too. Well...as long as they don't get food poisoning or it doesn't taste too bad.
A nice peaceful atmosphere filled the room as the students munched on the ice creams, and Akemi took one for herself as well, humming happily at the taste.

Zuko smiles a bit thinking maybe cooking would be good for him. And he nods, “I’ll have to take you up on that some time. It would be a nice surprise for my uncle for when I come back for the holidays that can actually help him with making dinner instead of... Well... The opposite.” Zuko states as he thought back to the last holiday season and he tried to help but he got frustrated with it and it caught on fire.
Catra raises a brow as she continues to eat her ice cream. “What do you mean by the opposite?” Catra tilts her head curiously and was interested in hear more. Zuko rolls his eyes and continues enjoying the ice cream.

Blake raised an eyebrow at how Zuko phrased his sentence. Opposite, huh? That kinda implies he wasn't that helpful around the holidays, though he was a polite and sweet kid so far. Probably something to do with a hidden temper, magic or very possibly, both. Some students definitely had problems like that.
"Now, Catra." Akemi smiled, waving Catra down in an attempt to stop her curiosity from pushing Zuko into answering something he didn't want. Wouldn't do for a fight to break out. "I'm sure Zuko would prefer to answer that when he's more comfortable here at the school. You both just arrived after all, right?"

Carta sighs and nods seeing Akemi is making a fair point, Zuko also heard her as if they were both new here and he nods as well. Her curiosity was getting the best of her as she was kinda pushing Zuko to answer he question. An she knewn that wasnt exactly fair of her so nods. "Yeah, you make a fair point Akemi." Catra says and looks to Zuko seeing she does kinda owe him a apology. "Hey sorry for asking Zuko, no hard feelings?" Catra smiles a happy toothy friendly smile to Zuko, and he decides it wasnt that bad seeing she is apologizing for her actions.
"It's alright Catra." He tells her he can imagine there would be some people curious as to his past. Though he just wasnt really ready to talk about his family or unpleasant experiances.

Akemi smiled as Catra and Zuko talked to each other and decided there were no hard feelings. It was always good to attempt to talk things out before they got too bad. Some simple communication is always good to keep in mind.
Blake smiled herself as she watched the two, reminded of when she and her other friends sometimes had fights, they always eventually talked and made up. Hopefully, Zuko would one day be comfortable enough to talk to others about some things.

As Catra was enjoying her ice cream, she then felt something purring against her leg. She looks under table and sees a dark purple cat with green eyes. She tilts her head in confusion. “Um... Who’s cat is this?” Catra looks to the others and of the table and Zuko looks confused and sees the purple green eyed cat under the table.
“Not mine. I don't own any pets.” Zuko bluntly states as he didn't know the cat or of the owner cat. Till he hears the door to the cafeteria open.
Suzaku rushes in, he had dropped off his staff in his room. When he let his pet cat Arthur out of his cage he turned around for like 2 seconds and he was gone. His been looking all over the campus for the cat. “Has... Anyone seen... A purple cat?!...” Suzkau asked as he ran in out of breath.
