The morning started off as any other following the summer break; sun shining, warm day, very few clouds in the sky with a light breeze causing the leaves in the trees to rustle on about... Birds chirping, the sound of traffic and pedestrians wandering around the small city of Renvomeir, definitely set the atmosphere that was to come. The black-haired, 5'9" teen had taken the bus, while at the same time, looking over his pamphlet to the academy he was to begin attending starting today. 'A mouthful for a name', is what James thought, which is why he was thankful for the abbreviation for it to be something incredibly simple to work with on the whole... Sure, its rules were unique when compared to other places he sent out applications for, but this place seemed to accept him, though wasn't the only one... however, it was the letter of acceptance he received from this place, as well as his father's surprised reaction when he found out, that James decided that he'd take this route. Sure, it likely would get rather breezy, where he was going... but, nothing to weigh him down save for a few rules? He could probably come to get used to it for the next few years, anyways!
James was in thought when the bus came to pick up a few more people to be taken to various other locations, though the academy was one of the stops, he just had to pay attention. The letter told him that there were only two days of the year where the academy's uniform was to be worn on academy grounds; the first day, today, and the last day before summer break... Strange, but he could get used to a school like that, so open to those rules. Well, technically, it expressed that the uniform was to be worn until told otherwise during the opening ceremony... which was in the morning, still some time away from now. The badge he wore on the uniform expressed where he was attending, and though he got a few looks at first, they seemed to return to their usual business soon afterwards; it's as if they seemed okay with it, really, given the academy and all in their backyard, essentially.
The bus finally stopped at James's destination, to which he stood up from his seat and wandered on out of the bus with his belongings, which... was a backpack, a laptop bag and a travel case; despite it, he didn't pack a whole lot for clothes, just some essentials as well as the requested books he was to bring with him for study purposes, though his laptop would be his means to get more familiar with the courses once he had an account for the academy's website, which is on a private server with no access nor registration option for people not part of the academy. It wasn't absolutely necessary, but being the curious guy that he was, James wanted to get to learn as much as he could about the place as a whole. Looking at the time on his phone, which very likely would be difficult to carry around for classes, not that he'd need to anyways, but he had a bit of time to spare just before the opening ceremony, so the teen decided to wander on about to try and mingle a little with the others attending, just to get to know them a little beforehand and see if they'd get along, or it'd be for the better to just keep his distance from them...
The academy itself was of a reasonable size, the property itself being quite large, about a few blocks all around the edges, and inside said grounds he could see a track field, soccer pitch, football field, in addition to the dormitories as well as the main building... It was impressive, that was for sure; James was rather glad he applied when he did. Sure, the idea of 'revealing it all' would be surprising when it should come up, but if it's contained within academy walls, at least it wouldn't be just James doing so... It seemed a bit more surprising that leaving grounds like this was allowed, though suppose if some people saw you in the uniform first day, they'd be sure to recognize their face and understand the situation with them and all. So much going on, but on the whole, with some getting used to this certainly would be a fun experience...!
