"... Hmph." Childishly, the Cardinal looked to the side, puffing her cheeks out and pouting with her moment ruined. Maybe not the most appropriate, but she thought to have a bit of fun now that she had someone to share her antics with, saying something that sounded straight out of a play... Her...

An alleyway close to a suspected kidnapping
October 18th, 1029
Cecilia had just an hour ago sent Peri off with a few letters and the materials her companion had 'borrowed' yesterday, giving the girl an uncharacteristically strict warning about the confidentiality of...
"That... Would be a, yes." The Cardinal, feeling awkward about the bizarre sight in front of her, could only eek out that thought as a response. As for why her companion had enough blades and items to arm a small squad on her own, she didn't know, but she could imagine that it was something the...
When prompted Miki's head turned, and she breathed a sigh of relief as the on-edge feeling faded away. She wasn't entirely sure what 'chivalry' her roommate was talking about where she had just been startled and uncomfortable, but she didn't really know how to ask and didn't much want to linger...
"N? Ah-" The statue started to move as she looked to the ground, feeling a bit uncomfortable with the development. All the sudden, she understood Veronica's words, though it felt more like she was the one getting in trouble. Or being swallowed by it. Either way, with the wake up call she fully...
"What?"
Ceci stared at the inquisitor with some color coming to her face as she processed what was said, thinking of what she had under her own vestments.
Or, well, the lack thereof besides some finer pieces of cloth.
Her flower-dyed imagination was brought under control quickly though as...
Veronica could only sigh when she realized the state that this fox had opened the door in to answer a teacher, staring her straight in the eyes as she asked, "Are you trying to get me in trouble?" This teacher was one of the few individuals that had no inclination towards the Russian heiress and...
"Nn." Miki gave a light wave to the departing class rep, feeling like they might be able to get along in the future. At the very least, Pandora seemed like a nice girl, even if her name was a bit on the weird and foreboding side. Who knows, maybe her parents just had an ill sense of humor...
Cecilia was offput by how the inquisitor seemed mostly unstained given that she hadn't taken any time to clean herself far as Cecilia had noticed, but her curiosity was redirected by the information that the drought was affecting more than Bursa. It made sense, given that she hadn't seen any...
"Just tired." Cecilia brushed off the concern as she spread another ward, using the dresser to help herself back up with the most discrete push she could manage. "You... Saw me last night. I'll be fine, in the morning." ... It seemed, whatever progress between the two there was today, the...
"Introduce myself?" Miki, unaware of the moment of tension in the girl that had come to personally greet her, considered the idea for a moment as she looked back at the Fushimi girl that Pandora didn't seem to have the highest evaluation of. "... Well, that'll happen tomorrow. V- Miss Snyders...
While not as on edge as her companion, Cecilia did have a split moment of hesitation when the door cracked open without warning. That moment's hesitation of getting the door, apparently, led to quite the scene as the Cardinal sat with an awkward smile, watching Peri slip past her companion and...
Cecilia had a growing frown on her face as she understood the severity of the situation, not a complete stranger to the mess that seemed to be taking shape here. "It seems I'll be writing... A very different letter than planned, to the Choir." While the numbers and statement of the amount...
"History?" At first, the idea of the missing books being all ancient, dusty books full of uninteresting factoids was surprising, but after the knee-jerk reaction she found herself returning to her initial misgivings about the missing books. Knowledge in all forms is a tool, and one that can be...
While the flood of attention was quite unreasonable, up until Pandora's interference Miki held her own quite well, singling out questions and statements that stood out from the clamor around and responding on her own time. She seemed to have a sort of smile about her lips as she greeted...
So, it wasn't that something happened. Her companion had simply remembered the brief words of last night, and worried on not seeing her here at the inn waiting.
Just a bit, Cecillia's smile trembled a bit as she held back her emotions to avoid another unprompted delicate moment, simply humming...
"... The library?"
Cecilia's voice came out in a quiet breath as she stood just in front of her bed, listening to the inquisitor start her report in a most unexpected place. Her eyes reflected a glint of light from the window behind her companion as she shuffled forward imperceptibly, thoughts...

"Teach's late."
"Did she stay out late drinking, or something?"
"... Kinda feels like she would?"
For twenty minutes, they'd all been patiently waiting for the woman - maybe this sort of conversation was a bit overdue to start...
Cecilia remained bewildered as she watched the inquisitor hold eye contact for several more seconds before looking around the environment, keeping some paces ahead. The encounter overall was rather strange, but at least her dilemma seemed to have come to an answer of its own. Now, she and her...
