At another table, Haeda looks at his younger brother after he observes Aonung and the others.

Haeda- He sure didn't waste any time.

Rotxo- As expected.

Haeda- Are you really gonna try to get Neteyam? Seems pretty impossible to me.

Rotxo- I only said that to see if it would rile him up, but I guess he didn't care what happened since he was so glad to go and claim his little guppy.

Haeda- So what are you gonna do?

Rotxo- Hmm.

He begins to think, wondering how to ruin the peace Aonung and his friends seem to think they have. He doesn't want Neteyam, but he also doesn't want to leave Aonung alone just yet, especially after what Haeda told him.

Rotxo- How do you feel about messing with Aonung a bit?

Haeda- Sounds fun, but what for?

Rotxo- I want the guppy mad. If he gets mad enough, he'll come after us, and that'll give me a chance to crush him.

Haeda- Okay, I'll get it done.

Once the bell rings, everyone heads to their first course.

There's three months left in the school year, and two months until exams begin. Once the exams are over, they'll be out on a break as they wait for their results, which takes about two weeks. After results are in, the Gen 3 students will return to campus to start preparing for their graduation ceremony. It'll be held in a designated area just outside the city, near where the students practice hunting during the third course of Gen 3.

Speaking of courses, the first two go by pleasantly, with Aonung being right back at Neteyam's side again. Not because he's depending on him again, but because he enjoys his company and the extra secure feeling he gets around him when they're in the water together.

The bell rings, signaling it's time for the third course. They have to meet up with their teachers outside and ride their Ilu or Skimwing through this stream behind the school that leads to the edge of the city where they hunt. It's school property, so there's no traffic, allowing them to ride calmly.

As the new couple goes through the halls, heading to their meeting place, Aonung stops for the bathroom. It's a habit that their teachers encourage, to empty out before going into the ocean where there's no restrooms.

Neteyam stays leaning against the wall in the hallway waiting, since he doesn't need to go. When a familiar face shows up with two others, he averts his eyes as those boys enter the bathroom. Aonung told him there's no worries left when it comes to Rotxo, so he's not about to rile up Haeda and start trouble.
