Unfortunately for Yuu, he was resummoned, to be honest he liked small spaces but a coffin was...he didn't like to think about it. An odd scratching came from outside the confin, Yuu ever so gracefully kicked the coffin open and half stepped half feel out. He heard a small high pitched yelp then, from under the lid. Bending down he gently lifted the admittedly heavy lid up to find...a cat? This cat like thing was gray and dirty, and had blue fire in his ears and a pitchfork tail. The little things cute tho oddly familiar. Picking the cat up, Yuu places the lid back to sit on the coffin and wait for Crowley. He methodically picks out the dirt in the cat's hair, humming quietly.

The door slowly opened to reveal Crowley and various people behind him wearing ornate robes...and a tablet? Was that the word? Yuu always has trouble with the odd technology of this world. Honestly, they look like a cult.

"What are you-" A red-haired boy started.

"Yuu darling, I was distressed when you vanished" Crowley interrupted as he walked up to Yuu, petting him. "*ehem* housewardens please stand by as I greet our new students"

The red boy looks between the masked fool and Yuu. " The Queen of Heart's Rule 23: "One must never bring a cat to a formal-"

"Yuu's above that" Crowley snaps, not even turning.

The red boy sputtered and they all looked pissed. "Excuse me-!"

"Yuu. Is. Above. That" Yuu is quite startled by Crowley's unrelenting insistence, but he isn't complaining.

The all half glare half size up Yuu as Crowley goes around and unlocks the floating coffins to let out the students. Yuu just continued to clean the cats' fur, uncaring of the ceremony. As more students get sorted various people eyed Yuu, whispering about him. It wasn't until the end that the cat woke up.

"Mmm..." they slowly open their bright blue eyes, looking at brown green eyes. They freeze. After a quiet moment, the cat panics, squirming in his arms.

"T-the hell...! You...you human! Let go of the great grim!" The now known as grim hissed. Yuu raised his hand to make a ball of water.

"What peculiar little fires you have, it would be unfortunate if they were put out" he holds grim by the scruff as he threatens him with a blank expression.

"I'll burn you-!" Before grim can do anything, Yuu places the bubble around their snout, effectively drowning them. Grim is thrown into a frenzy before Yuu lets them breathe.

"Be a good cat and I'll spare you" Yuu pets grim.

"I'm...I'm not a cat" Grim whined pitifully. Yuu just nodded before looking at Crowley.

"Can I keep them?" The Half demon held Grim like a child asking to buy a plushie.

"Fledgling, are you sure you wish to keep a monster?" Crowley picked up grim to look at him.

Before the prideful not cat could respond, Yuu corrected him. "They're not a monster, their grim."

"Very well, for I am truly sympathetic to my child's wants. You may have grim" Crowley hands back a baffled Grim. The students around them look equally perplexed. Honestly Yuu forgot about them. He thinks he hears some variations of 'who is this bastard'.

"Does that mean I can be a student" their big blue eyes were practically glowing in excitement.

"I'm afraid that's a bit far, you weren't summoned by the dark mirror" grim looked like they had their dreams shattered when the arrogant bird spoke.

"No! Look, I'll show you! My spells're the cat's meow!" Grim insisted, hoping out of Yuus arms they spit bright blue fire causing the surrounding people to panic. Blame it on his demon blood but he started giggling at the chaos. In his defense it was hilarious to watch all those arrogant little shits scurry around like ants. After having a nice laugh Yuu snatched grim by the scruff to scold them, pinching their cheeks as he threatens them with water.

"Well, that was quite the unexpected fracas. I hereby declare that orientation has concluded. Housewardens, please escort your students back to the dorms. ...Hm? Come to think of it, I don't see Housewarden Draconia of House Diasomnia anywhere." Crowley looked around for this Draconian. The newer students look disturbed. Looking at the Diasomia section Yuu noticed a young looking man with short choppy black and pink hair, something felt...strange about him, he felt ancient.

"And that surprises you? Dude's a total recluse." The lion man sounded utterly hateful and bitter.

"Wait a sec... Did anyone even invite him?" A red eyed boy spoke with a disgustingly sincere voice.

"If you're that worried about him missing out, maybe you should have told him yourself." A handsome guy had that 'I'm better than you tone'

"Maybe, but I don't know him too well either..." the red eyed boy lamented. He reminded Yuu of a rabbit.

As they discussed the less important students whispered among themselves. Yuu had heightened hearing but they got quite good at blocking out unnecessary chatter but he still caught something along the lines of "Draconia... Like, Malleus Draconia? THAT Draconia" he guessed this Malleus Draconia was feared.

The young looking boy then walked up with silent footsteps. "Ah. Just as I'd expected. I figured I'd come down and see for myself whether Malleus had made an appearance. But once again, he was evidently not informed that his presence was required at an official ceremony." He had a deep voice and sounded quite disappointed.

"You have my sincerest apologies. I assure you, this oversight was in no way intended as a snub." A sly boy apologizes with an utterly terrible facade of sincerity.

"I mean, you must admit, he's not exactly the easiest person to strike up a conversation with" the red boy defended. A very prim and proper fellow.

"No matter. All who were assigned to House Diasomnia, follow me. I just hope he doesn't sulk about this." As Diasomia was gather so we're the other houses. It was a tad disorganized but they got out eventually, the most orderly was the red head's group. The lion boy was complaining about the waste of time, the handsome boy was fixing his makeup, the red eyed boy was happily greeting the new students as another guy with braids mixed in a ponytail actually guided them, the sly boy still hand his fake business smile and the table just floated away. Crowley then turned to Yuu.

"What do you think of my students dear?" The bird chirped.

"Emotionally stunted arrogant pricks" the half demons response was flat.

"You truly are blunt my darling flower" Crowley sighed. "Unfortunately I must agree, I've been truly praying for someone to help nutre companionship between all those fools" he laments dramatically whipping away fake tears.

Yuu rolls his eyes, still holding grim. He found that scratching their ears gently calms them down, it was so effective they were sleeping now, very cutely may he add. Crowley continued to complain about how self-centered his students were as they left to the now set up dorm Yuu was staying in, quiet hypocritical if you ask Yuu. Passing by main street and down the stone path an out of the way building peaked behind the many tall trees. It was a large building with sharp navy roofs, a small turret, the walls were a light stone and many arched windows. Walking on the porch Crowley gave him the key for the building, grim still quietly sleeping against Yuus chest.

"The ghost will help with house maintenance though be ready for mischief alright" Crowley ruffles Yuu's purple hair teasingly. "The medical kit is in the main bedroom bathroom and exta towels are in the drawers and if anyone suspicious call me and get the ghost and I'll be back with food and your favorite tea and-" Crowley rambled anxiously.

"Yes yes don't fret I've lived alone perfectly safe for a centuries" Yuu assured, exasperation evident in his voice.

"Darling...darling your 16, that's neglect"

"Oh hush i turned out fine now collect my meal you mother hen" Yuu smiled before walking into the building as Crowley walked away, Turning on the warm lights in Yuus first proper home.
