(*softly butting into the thread because it seems like fun; I don't think either of my characters will be interacting much until any drama that's about to go down between Marissa and Sol, well, goes down*)

Reginald Cannery whooped with glee as he flew through the air above one of Ever After High's courtyard spaces. He was running through his aerial acrobatics paces--his canary form needed to be in tip-top shape for the Shapeshifter Triathlon to be held in the coming week! Luckily Tina had been happy to help him train by outlining a training regimen and timing his exercises. Although.... now that Regi thought about it, he thought he'd seen something afloat in her grin when she'd agreed to time him today....

As Regi pondered that and flew in loop-de-loops through the air, he suddenly felt a rush of magic run through him. 'Oh Grimm,' he thought to himself, panicking, because that could only mean one thing--Tina was changing him back! 'Oh no, oh no ohnoohnooHNOOHNOOHN-' he screamed internally as he quickly changed from a small bird to an average-sized human.

Who then began falling, of course.

"AAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!" the boy screeched as he fell through the air. Thankfully he wasn't very high up though so the fall was short. He made something of a squeaking noise once he reached the ground, falling flat on his face in the grass. He groaned in pain, then realized what exactly had happened--Tina had changed him back from bird to human while he was still in the air. Obviously he wasn't at a height where he could seriously injure himself, but he was still in the air, darn it! Indignant, Regi popped up to his feet and whipped around to face the girl in question. "wHAT THE HEX, Tina?!?!?!?" he cried out, putting his hands on his hips. (RPer's note: imagine these exclamations but like. as vaguely bird-like screeches. it gives me life tbh.) The girl in question didn't reply--she was rather occupied by silently laughing her head off, bent as she was at the waist and clutching her arms across her middle. Regi huffed in her direction and dusted himself off, finally surveying his surroundings to see if anyone had seen his... unfortunate fall. 'I swear to Grimm if she makes some kind of "ruffled feathers" joke when she's done laughing I WILL slap her,' he thought to himself as he looked around. He noticed a moderately sized crowd of fellow students standing under a nearby tree, but they seemed too engrossed in their conversation to have noticed his fall. He moved to turn back towards Tina again, but stopped as something caught his eye. He turned back towards the group, squinting as he tried to figure out what it was that he'd glimpsed, and once one of the group's members moved he finally saw what had caught his eye: A boy, seemingly in the center of the crowd, breaking up what looked like the beginnings of a fight and wearing what almost looked like a modified pink princess's dress. Intrigued, Regi moved closer to the group, curious about this boy who made a pink dress top work and who had pink streaks in his soft-looking, curled brown hair. As he closed in on the group, the curious boy turned more in his direction and oh. oH. OH. Reginald stopped in his tracks, struck by the unabashed beauty of this boy he's never met. The soft smile, the kind blue eyes, the masculine jawline... if there was a list of traits Regi found attractive, this boy checked quite a few of them off. (RPer's note: no wonder the boy is shook. someone save this screechy birb son.) Suddenly Regi felt a strong pull towards this boy, and no way was he questioning it, so he continued towards the group. As he approached, he overheard one of the girls making rather... biting comments towards another girl, then also overheard the second girl make some REALLY biting comments towards the first girl..... and that was the moment in which Regi thoguht, 'Ya know what? I think I'll hang back here and talk to the really pretty and interesting boy AFTER whatever fight between these two girls goes down.' And so he stayed a few yards back from the group and casually tried to NOT look like he was awkwardly waiting for a way to insert himself into the group. (Rper's note: he failed but its ok he'll get there eventually.)

(Rper's note: also Regi is happy to save any princes who may be locked in towers as it's also his "destiny" *hint hint wink wink* He'll save girls too but more out of a sense of duty than as a way to meet a potential life partner. I imagine he's the type of guy to "play it cool" and just slide himself up to a boy like "so I heard you need saving from a tower. what a coincidence, I'm in the business of saving cute boys from towers. *obnoxious eyebrow waggle belied by his cheery grin that's barely holding back his laughter*")
