[ New Arrivals ] [ Vader had, with great reluctance, promised Halsin he would come to the ceremony that evening. "Good for his health," he had claimed, though he doubted that very much. There was no good to be had for his health standing in a dark corner and brooding, eyeing the new batch of novices with something like contempt, not that it could be seen from behind the mask he wore. His legs ached at where they were joined with the metal prosthetics that even allowed him to stand, and the temptation to just drink the pain away with blood wine was strong. ]
[ Instead, as always, he just silently watched, judging those from the Black Court that were taking on novices. There was no way to tell the true potential of a novice until their second season at the very least, and even then, it would take a number of times out on a hunt before Vader would ever even consider someone worth his time. The hunt was what separated the ones that had actual nerve from the ones that were better off sipping their blood from a glass. ]
[ A faint sigh escaped from him as he shifted his weight in an attempt to ease some of the pain, wishing he could just meld into the shadows he loomed in and escape this dreadful party. ]
[ Autumn Classes - for students ] [ If you're a student of his, you're expected at class, no exceptions. Even if it is the Silver Court running the symposium, he has no patience for those that would skip his classes for something so mundane. ]
[ Classes with Vader take place in the outdoors, regardless of it being a first season class or not. There was no means of learning to hunt from indoors, after all; not everything was a gothic fantasy of slipping in through an unattended window that the Blue Court seemed so dreadfully fond of. ]
[ After classes he can be found still outdoors, tending to the thin blade of his sword as he contemplates over the students he was teaching, almost in a meditative state. Though he can easily be broken out of it when approached, the dark eyes of his mask focusing on anyone that dares to interrupt him. ]
[ Pumpkins Gone Wild ] [ Vader swears that only the Silver Court could get away with this level of nonsense. ]
[ When he's not terrorizing his students, Vader can be found hacking away at the pumpkin vines, doing his best damage control that he possibly can on his own. It doesn't keep the occasional vine from sneaking up on him and tangling around a limb, but it only seems to bother him when they get around his right arm -- that is his only remaining intact limb, after all. No one could blame him for being a little more vicious with those. ]
[ Anyone that approaches gets the side eye, and if they are unarmed, promptly ignored. Anyone with a weapon gets an extra long glance, before Vader turns his focus back to hacking away at the vines. ]
