Summary:
School can be hard, going to a boarding school? Even harder, especially when you're put into a special dorm and cram school for students who were less than normal, and much more than meets the eye. But you get use to it eventually.
St. Sea Angel's Boarding School for boys and girl was a school that housed and taught grades from Elementary through College, which has stood for more than a hundred years. But what a lot of people didn't know is that some of the student's it housed and taught weren't as human as they seems.
Otis was one of them, being born to a human mother, and a kitstune father, making him a half demon. And while being very docile compared to other demons, monsters, mystics and yokia, he was sent to the school in order to be taught to control that half of him that was demon, and live in human society. Easier said then done once high school rolls around, especially when not only do you have to live in a special dormitory far away from the other dorms that housed human students, but also went to a special cram school for half demons and those who could see the unseen.
Needless to say, school doesn't get any easier, whether you're a human teen or not.
It was still in the middle of the winter season, and where the school was placed, in winter, you got plenty of snow, and the summer time was blazing hot, but Otis tried not to complain.
That morning wasn't much different than any other since the school year started.
He got up early on instinct, like he did every morning, to start the day. So after brushing and tying back his long white hair, plus being careful not to wake his roommate, as well as his house guest, the fox went down to the dorm's kitchen to start on a breakfast for at least fifteen people, hence why he had to get up so early. He was the dorm's in house cook after all.
Students attending the school got a monthly allowance that was meant to pay for school supplies or other things, like special meals, or snacks and so on. Otis had applied to be his dorms in house cook after Zero scared the last one off, allowing him to get paid for his time, as well as having fun cooking for people, so he had no complaint.
The fox had gotten up before the sun had a chance to rise to make preparation for the meal ahead, though this was slightly before Zero, his roommate, got up for his morning run.
It was the weekend and everyone either had the day to themselves and were sleeping in, or were doing something else. The half fox was someone who was more or less a morning person, after he managed to wash his face and have his first cup of coffee, so after cleaning off the tables, and his cooking area, the fox teen got to work.
With his long fox tail gently wagging as he started preparing rice porridge, thing about the half kistune was, that his demon half had been conditioned to Japanese food, but honestly, Otis would eat just about anything considered food. Still, he tried to make other things too, since his other dorm mates tended to complain or make requests. With that in mind Otis started cracking eggs to make omelets.
To might be wondering why it was no one noticed that there were half demons attending the school, and the reason why was because even half demons could hide they're true appearance from people who couldn't see they're true nature, allowing them to live normally. Though things like his pointed ears and fangs never seemed to be hidden.
Said ears were perked up when he heard a small meow, looking towards the large window that lead to the eating area of the dorm cafeteria, Otis saw Peaches, Ryan's pet cat (who he later found out was actually a bakeneko) sitting on the window ceil, "Good morning Peaches, you hungry?" he asked and the can answered 'Yes!' she chirped, since they were both of the same origin, Otis could understand what she said, though despite probably being hundreds of years old, Peaches vocabulary was rather limited.
"Ok, I'll grill you some fish," he told her, and the cat started weaving herself between his legs purring, 'Fishy fish! Mushy Mushy!' the cat chanted happily as the half kistune got some fish out of the freezer. After cooking the fish, Otis masked it up in a bowl with some rice before giving it to the cat, who happily ate away.
As the minutes went by, those who were accustom to rising early started filling the empty dining area, either half asleep, or less than fully awake, Ryan being one of them, since he had slept over Friday night.
"Morning," Otis greeted as he poured the rice porridge in some bowls, "Good morning Otis," Ryan yawned, having stayed up pretty late studying for a test on Monday, "What's for breakfast…?" he asked sitting on a stool placed in front of the window's counter. "Rice omelets and rice porridge," Otis answered, his tail wagging happily. "Japanese style again?" Thomas an old not-friend of Otis' groaned annoyed, "Seriously? Can't you make anything else, like fried eggs and bacon like a normal person?" the teen asked sitting at one of the large tables.
"Rice porridge is easy to digest and is a good for you," The fox teen huffed as he started to add the egg covering to the steamed rice, "And rice omelets have all the protein you need to start the day, so don't complain unless you wanna be the one cooking," and with that Thomas shut up. Though he complained, it was mostly just to annoy the fox, because the teen usually ate everything on his plate. "I like the food you make Otis," Ryan chirped to cheer his friend up. "Thanks Ryan," Otis smiled, "If your going to stay another night, is there anything particular you want for dinner?" he asked as he got out some pickled vegetables to put in the porridge.
"What Is It With You Doting On Him!? Jeeze!" Thomas shouted annoyed, but Otis ignored him, "No, not really, like I said I like your cooking," Ryan gulped since he didn't really like being in the line of fire if and when the two started shouting at each other.
"Ok, than we'll have curry with rice and beef croquettes," that earned him an "Oh Come On!" from Thomas, the other two students just stayed out of it, too sleepy to complain about what they were being fed, and just tried to focus on not falling asleep at they're tables.
"What's with all the shouting?" Zero asked as he walked into the room, having finished his jog, "Otis making Japanese again?" he asked as he walked to sit at the counter, he got his answer when Otis started setting out the finished meals, "Oh shush, dog boy," the fox sighed. Zero had hell hound blood in him, though it had been one of his distant ancestors who had been the half demon in the family, the hound's blood was stronger in him than anyone else in recent generations for some reason. Oddly enough, despite this, the dog teen was a vegetarian.
"I won't complain so long as I can eat it," he replied starting on his porridge as the other students got up to get they're plates. Ryan took a bite of the fluffy egg and rice omelet and smiled, "It's really good," he commented making the half kistune smile happily, though it wasn't long before Peaches was meowing for seconds, "Ok ok, I'll make some more," The white haired teen laughed, "Peaches, don't bother Otis like that," the green eyed teen huffed at his cat, "It's fine," Otis chirped before making another bowl for her.
"Just remember everyone," Otis said in a loud voice, "It's also chore day, so make sure to get them done unless you want the dorm manager to get mad." He reminded them, making most of them groan.
Rolling his blue eyes, Otis sighed and started to eat his own breakfast.
"Are we late for breakfast again…?" A tiny voice asked as two little girls walked into the room, followed by a little black dog, "A little, but don't worry girls," the fox reassured the two sisters as he set out two small plates and bowls for them. The two girls were still in they're pajamas, the youngest one dressed in a pink night gown and hello-kitty slippers, while the other was in an over sized jersey working as a night dress.
"Not really, your foods still nice and warm," Otis told them as the two sisters climbed into the'yre chairs after the teen set down they're bowls and plates of food.
Rosa, and her younger step sister Desi, were in Elementary School, and seeing as they accidently entered a contract with a skull hound, they named Kuro Mori (or Kumo) the two were sent to St. Sea Angel, as well as put into the special dorms and cram school, seeing as they needed to know how to control they're yokia since they were too stubborn to break the contract, and had grown very, very attached to him, and vice versa.
Seeing as the boarding school didn't get as many "special" kids as it did in the beginning, the large, old dormitory housed boys and girls from different grades, girls on one side, boys of the other.
Desi, who was only 8, had already started to nod off before even putting anything in her mouth, and her sister, who was 9, had to shake her back awake, "Don't fall back asleep," Rosa told her before putting a spoonful of her omelet in her sister's mouth, trying to get her to at least eat before she nodded off again. "'m sowy sissy…" she muttered.
"Rosa, make sure Desi takes her bath today, I know how she can get," Otis reminded the older sister, who nodded, "I will, don't worry."
…
After everyone had they're fill of food, most of them left, while the two sisters, who had table cleaning and sweeping to do, stayed behind with Ryan and Otis, who were washing dishes. "You don't have to help Ryan," Otis told the smaller teen as he handed him a few dishes to dry a put away, "I don't mind, you did help me study all night, than you got up and made breakfast," Ryan smiled, meanwhile Kumo was licking the messy dishes clean of food, and would later be let loose on the oven to clean up the burnt and chard bits that had gotten left in there.
Needless to say, this was a pretty daily routine the kids had become accustom to, and despite school being hard, especially when a lot of them were far away from they're families, they tended to have a good time together.
After the chores were done, Otis and Ryan watched the two sisters as they played in the snow with they're skull hound, while sitting on the front doors steps. "So, those two are really here because they have a-uh…" Ryan tried to think of the word as he stroked Peaches fur, "Yokia," Otis said and he nodded, "And yes, they entered a contact with him by giving him a name, Skull Hounds aren't near Hyper level, but they're still pretty strong, this ones still a pup, so it's no wonder two little girls were able to contract it."
Ryan, despite having a cat demon for a pet, didn't know all that much about the world his best friend came from, in fact he didn't even know his cat was a yokia till about two weeks into the school year when she accidently scratched him while clawing at Otis when they first met. He had learned that an injury caused by a demon or other kind of creature could almost always give a person the ability to see the true nature, leading him to be rather stunned when Otis and Peaches appearances changed almost instantly.
If that hadn't happened, he'd still see Peaches as a normal house cat, Otis as a human teen, and probably Kumo as a normal black puppy, though now he knew why not only was he invited to this school, but also why they allowed Peaches to come with him. So many things were clearer now, but now things got more complicated too.
"Are they going to be ok?" he asked a little worried for the two children, "When he grows up I mean."
"Rosa and Desi are attending this school to control his yokia powers, only time will tell if they'll be able to handle him." The fox told the teen, his tail swaying against the steps. "So why does giving him a name mean they're contracted to him?" Ryan asked. "Names have more power than you think, give something a name, you grow attached to it and gives them more of a meaning." Otis went on, "For demons and other creatures, giving them a name means you can claim owner ship of them, if you know a demons true name, you can force even a hyper level demon to submit to you if you have a strong will."
"And… me and Peaches?"
"Peaches is a very old cat demon, she's docile, and has already recognized you as her owner by the way she tried to protect you when she sensed I was a half demon." Otis reassured his friend, petting the two tailed cat as she purred. "Younger demons tend to be different, because they're too young to know better, and on top of that, having contact holders who are also very young can be a bit much at first." Ryan nodded, but both teens flinched when they heard a loud scream, causing Otis's tail to frizz, both turned they're heads to see that Desi had tripped and fallen, scraping her knee. The fox teen quickly got up and walked over to her as Rosa tried to calm her sister, "It's ok sweetie," Otis cooed picking her up and rubbing her back, the younger sister didn't handle pain well.
"I think now's a good time to go inside anyways, your nose is all red from the cold," Otis chuckled as Desi pouted burying her face in his shoulder, not really wanting to stop playing in the snow, "Meanie," she muttered, and the four of them went inside.
"After your all bandaged up, I'll make some takoyaki, does that sound good?" the fox asked, his tail wagging, thing about Otis was, he just loved to be the big brother/mother of the house. "What's takoyaki?" Desi asked and Otis explained that traditionally, it was octopus covered in a batter than fried into little balls, but they could also have cheese or hotdogs if she preferred.
…
Back in the dorm room, Ryan started to go over the studying material another time, following the notes Otis wrote him, which highlight what would probably be on the test, sitting at the small table in the room while Rose went over her cram school material, the two of them waiting for Otis and Desi to come back with the snack they were making.
The small table, which Otis had told Ryan, was called a kotasu, which had a blanket and heater for the cold weather to keep warm, which Peaches and Kumo curled up under it, probably asleep. "Is cram school hard?" the teen asked as he flipped through the notebook. "It can be, a lot of the kids are older than us too, but Otis helps us a lot." She replied going through the specially modified work sheets from class. "Desi doesn't listen very well though, she's always gets distracted or scribbles on her work sheets." Rose added, "But I know she's trying, because she doesn't want them to take Kumo from us."
"I'm sure that won't happen, I doubt Otis would let it," with that reassurance, the brunette girl smiled, "Yea, I know."
A few minutes later Otis and Desi came back with a plate of tokayaki, "We're back! And we made lotsa takoyaki with different fillings!" Desi chirped happily as Otis set her down along with placing the plate on the table, along with a bowl of chopped fruit. "Careful, they're hot, so I'll get some picks you can use to eat with." Otis told them as he went over to his dressed, taking out a little box. When he opened it and placed the content on the table, the girls eyes lit up, "So cute!" Rosa smiled. It was a little bird cage shaped toothpick holder with colorful reusable toothpicks that had little birds at the top, sorta like the tiny swords you sometimes get with your sandwich. "These are so cute!" Desi cheered picking up a pink one.
"They make all kinds of cutesy things like this where my dad's from," Otis told them, "Like those pretty chop sticks you got us!" both girls chimed in smiling, "Yea, just like those, spoons, forks, chopsticks, anything really, Japanese love making things all showy."
"Like those bento lunches you always bring," Ryan mentioned, recalling how fancy Otis lunches always looked, always almost too pretty to eat. They all laughed and started to eat after Otis left for a quick moment, to bring back some mugs of hot chocolate. They all enjoyed the takoyaki as a nice snack before lunch.
"I'm back," Zero said entering the room, tossing his bag on his bed as he was followed by Britton, who had just happened to be visiting. Rosa ran up to Zero hugging him, "Hi Zero!" she chirped happy to see the hound.
"Hello," Otis greeted along with Ryan, "Hi," the blonde said and the two joined them at the table, "What're you eating?" the hound teen asked before taking a strawberry from the fruit bowl. "Takoyaki!" the youngest squealed loving how it turned out. "There's cheese, squid, hot dog, veggie and seaweed!"
"How do you tell which is which..?" Britton asked, tilting his head, "Just open one up."
Zero picked up a takoyaki that had a hotdog inside and set it on fire with his hell flames, were a bright green, being of hell hound decent he could easily smell what had meat in it. After the dumpling was burnt to a crisp he tossed it to Kumo, who had come out of hiding when he smelled something burning, and quickly ate up the charred food happily. "Good boy," he chuckled and tossed a seaweed filled on in his own mouth.
"Zero, no burning stuff inside the dorm room," Otis growled, his fluffy tail frizzing a bit, "You're going to set off the smoke detector again."
"Calm down, Otis. Don't get your tail in a knot." The hound rolls his green and red eyes with a grin.
The rest of that evening at dorms went on like it always did since school began. Otis made lunch and dinner, and everyone enjoyed a hot meal, even though Thomas still complained. And when the day came to an end, it was back to bed for everyone. Life at St. Sea Angel's wasn't so bad, but that was probably because it felt like a home away from home.
Is Python and Kyu’s wedding be a Kitsune no Yomeiri? And I am impress that you know that Kyu and Kitsune are fire type mystical Kitsunes as there are about 13 types of mystical kitsunes - Celestial, Darkness, Wind, Spirit, Fire, Earth, River, Ocean, Mountain, Forest, Thunder, Time and Sound.
I could definitely see their wedding being something like that since Python would just go along with whatever Kyu wanted. Python wouldn't really care about the wedding ceremony at all really. Probably would have been a foreign concept to him and Typhon at that time lol.
Yeah, I always dabble in some research regarding the characters with mythical backgrounds. But I'd say Kyu is Time and Sound and Kitsune is fire (though that's mostly influenced through his auntie Amaterasu's blessing).
And Hikaru's type is a secret to be revealed... (She's only used her weapon so far, so who knows what type of kistune she could be!)
