   “Oh, you’re back soon. Ah, anything else ya need?” Ziggs blinked at the other, finishing up his wiping off the counters. He had inhaled some coffee grounds for a short moment; making a noise and turning to find a glass of water. Now, he was sure he was covered in coffee grounds at this moment. But, he had no intentions to clean himself up until the coffee machine was fixed.

   Now that he thought about it; did Flippz need to clean up? Surely she did...But he’d wait to see what she needed first before he offered to let her use the shower.

   The dust of the coarse blend settled quickly afterwards. Flippz used the counter for support and stood up, and then she turned to the Dean. There were tears in her eyes, although those were just a reaction to the airborne coffee.

   “S-sir, I’m so, oh goodnes, so sorry, you see, I…” she started stuttering, struggling to put together a coherent sentence. Her eyes darted between the Dean’s nose, her own hands and the smoldering remains of the coffee machine. It took her a few seconds before she made a sound other than “uuuuh”.

   “I, I can fix that!” she proclaimed first but then she immediately realized that she couldn’t. “Okay, maybe I can, uh, sweep the floor and wipe the counter? I mean, I’ve made all this mess…” she glared across the thin brown layer that had covered all surfaces around them, and then she finally looked into his eyes. She was looking for signs of anger and irritation, but she found very few of them.

   “Sir… you don’t look that very concerned?”

   “I am concerned, I was wondering if you’re alright. I mean, it’s okay. Sure I made the coffee machine from scratch at 2 o’clock in the morning, but ya know, look.” Ziggs left the room for a short moment, returning with a tissue for Flippz.

   “The coffee must have gotten in your eyes.” On impulse, Ziggs gently wiped the tears out of Flippz eyes, realizing what he did and just sticking with hand the tissue to her so she can finish. 

   “And uh, no need to worry about all the cleanin’, I can help too.” Ziggs shrugged, kinda looking around the kitchen at this point.

   Ziggs hadn’t turned on the TV like he was planning; instead, he was doing a crossword puzzle in the newspaper. “The noise a ruckus makes...Hm, there’s a bunch of words that can fit here.” He tapped the pen on his mouth; that was until he heard a booming noise from the kitchen. His ears straightened as he heard this. “Boom, huh, that fits...” 

   The dean scribbled down the word in the boxes on his puzzle, before tossing it all down onto the coffee table and rushing into the kitchen. He was met with a cloud of dust, some had gotten into his mouth; “Oh, well, this doesn’t taste that bad...” 

   He blinked, swatting the dust out of his face, “Miss? Ah...I see the switch wasn’t turned on.” He would  have been irritated; if it weren’t for the fact that now, he actually has something to do today. “Well, this fixes my schedule. Uh...” He noticed Flippz, and gasped. 

“Hey, are you alright?” He knelt down beside her, looking concerned.

   “Ah…Well, you see, there wasn’t enough room for another bathroom to be put in. So, I guess we’ll have to share one. I mean! I’ll respect that women need their space… So, uh, how do you ladies work bathroom schedule anyways? I heard that you might need an hour in the morning, and an hour at night… I guess we could work that out, depending on what time you need to get rent out the bathroom, that is.” The dean rubbed the back of his neck, obviously embarrassed. He had never had to share a dorm with a female before.

   But the courier seemed rather calm and…cool? So Ziggs assumed that Flippz won’t be as horrible as some of the women that his coworkers and students complain about. The thought was almost amusing to the dean…This will be fun, right? Yeah, he just has to make sure the courier feels right at home.

   “A tailor! I met one of those recently...Either way, I heard magic. Magic is pretty fancy, I’ve never had the niche for it...I find demolition more entertaining...But wow, magic! Do you have a magic trick for me?” He smiled at Laural.

The Dean tilted his head, "Hm, it's been a while since I've been to Bandle, mind showin' me around?"

Laural turned to the smiling yordle and returned the favor. “I’d be delighted to show you around Mr….” Laural drug out the last part of the question to get a name.

[hexplosively-hectic-blog]

   Ziggs nodded, then smiled, “Well, there’s juice boxes and coffee and whatever in the kitchen...Make yourself at home! Ah...I’ll be in the living room. Holler if you need anything.” Ziggs nodded again, then walked off. 

He very much so did not know how to treat guests. He was used to being by himself most of the time. Though, there was the occasional traveler looking for a place to stay. Other than that...

   Ziggs blinked slowly for a moment, before smiling brightly. “Oh, alright! Nice meetin’ ya then!” He hesitated for a moment, before turning to leave as well. 

*Kiba sniffs the strange yordle and looks confused.* "Hello. you have the smell of sulfur ... are you all right?"

   Ziggs grinned from ear to ear, “Why, that’s because I’m about to explode! Boom!” He laughed, and put a hand on his hip, “Nah, I’m just pullin’ your leg! I’m actually a hexplosives expert, so I tend to work with a lot of sulfur…”

[hexplosively-hectic-blog]

   Ziggs giggled in return, “Well, that’s alright. I can get a name later…Anyways! I am Ziggs, the Dean of Demolitions! How are you, my fellow, kind, sir?” He giggled some more, holding out his fist for a fist bump.

*Kiba sniffs the strange yordle and looks confused.* "Hello. you have the smell of sulfur ... are you all right?"

My three favorite yordles! ❤

   “When have I ever been careful? Heh!” Ziggs laughed lightly. “Either way, what’s your name?” The dean smiled in a more friendly manner at the other.

   The dean was about to doze off at his desk; right before he heard chatter outside. His ears perked up, and Ziggs immediately put two and two together to assume the situation. 

   He stood up form his desk, and stepped outside the classroom; to see that what he thought was going on, was going on. “So…Boys, any reason why you have the poor girl cornered? You know that’s no way to treat a lady...” The dean crossed his arms; obviously not impressed.

"Want to see a magic trick? It will...blow your mind away!" Ziggs laughed.

Karlah clapped her hands in excitement. She had just arrived at the university for her first class in Hexplosives, ecstatic to see the renowned yordle. The other students seemed rather lukewarm from his question, not really paying attention to him.

“Yes! Yes! Show us something!” she squeaked, drawing the gaze of the other students to her.

   Ziggs nodded, then lifted his arms up, “All yours...for measurements, that is.” A giggle followed. “And, note that I am ticklish. But yeah, yeah! Those sound good to wear, guess it’s a good thing my clothes got blown up after all...”

"My last outfit got burnt like no other! Ah, while I'm still in Bandle, do ya mind helping me out?" Ziggs gestured down to his old pyro-uniform; which was covered in dirt, and other stains he received from various hexplosives., "I've been wearing this one since I got nothing else, heh." A nervous smile adorned his ash-smudged face. "Basically, I'm wonderin' if you can make me something new."

“Hm? Sure, I can make you something,”Kiyn responded,”Just tell me your preferences for the style you want. Also, please try not to dirty anything. I’ll get a rag for you to wipe yourself off with.”

Kiyn grabbed a towel-like rag from underneath his counter and scurried towards the customer. He then handed him the rag and became curious.

“So… How did you and your clothes get into this condition, Um…,”Kiyn said,”I’m sorry, but I forgot to ask for your name, may I ask what it is?”

[hexplosively-hectic-blog]

"You're pretty nifty lookin'! Hey, you're not one of those...wizards, are ya? I know a wizard, he's a pretty goofy guy...Ah, he sure does make me laugh...Either way! Show me a magic trick? I'm an expert at magic tricks myself, but I wanna see what you got!" With a laugh, Ziggs clapped his hands together in excitement.

     The yordle’s ears perked into the air, and his normal ashen cheeks turning a deep crimson. 

“I am!.. I mean, kinda. I’m only an apprentice, and I sorta have to cheat when it comes to magic!” 

     Sol put a hand on the back of his hand and rubbed it anxiously, A big, doofy smile spreading across his face. 

“I-I’m not really one for magic tricks though! Tell ya what, uh… tell me what ya wanna see! I’ll try my best, but like I said, I’m kinda limited on what I can do!”
