Asura Bailey stepped onto a plate as Professor Ozpin started explaining what would happen. As always, Brilliant Sky was wrapped around her arm in it's compact form, so the winged Faunus had no obvious weapon.

Some of the other students were craning their necks to take a look at her, or just simply gawking and staring. Asura was used to it, however - people did that everywhere she went. After all, it isn't every day people get to see a heterochromiac, winged Faunus. Not to mention the fact she probably seemed inappropiately dressed, wearing a light sky-blue, knee-length dress and sandals, and didn't seem to have a weapon. When Ozpin got to the subject of teams and partners, however, most everyone's heads turned back towards him.

''So we're going to be paired with the first person we meet? Okay'', Asura thought, confident she could get along with anyone, as long as they weren't a jerk.

Soon, Ozpin was finished, asking if anyone had questions. A fellow down the line raised his hand and asked about landing strategies, but Ozpin just gave a criptic reply. When she saw the kid still confused, Asura went to answer herself.

However, before Asura could say a word, the pad beneath her heaved, and she was launched into the air.

As the initiates were launched one by one, Hari Adva seemed calm and relaxed, not paying much attention to the winged Faunus down the line. Lightning Flame  was in sword form, in it's sheath on the left side of the Huntsman-in-training's belt, while  Auto  Bales   was on the other side in it's holster. He was calm, though the part about partners had surprised him.

So... pretty much zero chance I'll be paired with anyone I know... Hari thought. Well, at least I'll get to know someone new! his thoughts went on, trying to be optimistic and cheerful..

Then, as he saw that it was getting close to his turn to be launched, the mechanic got into a ready stance, and just in time too. A few seconds later, the plate jolted forward, sending Hari up into the sky.

(Yes, I put in Jaune. XD Also, a good description of Auto Bales, quoting Kimi: " Something akin to a watgun type design. Slightly bulkier than a traditional firearm, with a open scoop at the top, that looks like a square version of those funnels you use to not spill anything as you pour liquid into a bottle." The barrel itself is simply a steel pipe. )
