Who I'm with: Scarlet (@StartingOver), Frank (@Pinkalyn), and Shard (@Mad Prince of Sanity)


What I'm doing: Shaking my head


"Mmm, actually, dear, my favorite is out of the school right now, attending to some business and he already got his pick."
Nishira held Scarlet securely and maneuvered to whisper in her ear. No one else would hear the next little bit. "Do not mistake my enjoyment of you for my unadulterated favor. If Shard wants Ivela the two of you will have to fight for her." The lich nibbled Scarlet's earlobe. "My word is law here. Perhaps you forgot in your time away. All I have to do is issue a command and you will fall over yourself to fulfill it. Don't ruin this for yourself, love."

Who I'm with: The nurses, Valian (@folclor )


What I'm doing: Feeling better, agreeing


The otter nodded, glad Valian hadn't held back or minced words. "Aye, an it be friendship, it be more den dat." The nurses finished aiding him and walked off, as if nothing had happened, chittering and hissing as they did. His foot felt better as did his arm, reaching out to his brother to help him to his feet. "I should 'ave a talk wit' 'er about it means ta be in me clan." Grinning as he set his weight on his leg, pleased there was no pain. It felt like new, except for the large scar on his ankle, he would never be able to tell he'd been hurt.


He chuckled and shook his head. "Nae, I've not toll 'er yet. Wanted te see 'ow t'ings werked out wit' lover boy." He frowned a little at hearing Why'nn's reaction. "May'aps I'll wait on talkin wit' 'er." Looking to Violet the otter smiled and slowly nodded with Valian. "Aye, she be a pawful."

What I'm doing-Interested.


Scarlet closed her eyes and let out a soft moan, not caring who heard. She opened them again and looked to Nishira a lustful look in her eyes, but also a gleam. "I think you forgot we are cut from the same cloth my Mistress." she made a move and kissed the women's neck. "I like to think thats why you let me get away with a little more than the others." she said in a low soft voice. "You understand me better then anyone, you get why I do things. I serve you not because you bind me, but because you are worthy to be my mistress." She pulled back and smiled. "As i said I get what I want, and if that includes earning it then who cares."She looked down to the arena again. "Isn't a meal earned better than a free one?"

What I'm doing: Having a bit of fun/Chatting


Nishira chuckled, stroking Scarlet's hair. "Always, dear. We'll see how things play out. Of course, teachers are allowed to take as they want from the student population. If you see someone you want to feed from, go ahead and take them." At some point, Nishira might've allowed the girl to feed from her, but she was undead and had nothing to give Scarlet.


"A few of the boys are very easily duped. Connor can be drawn into dubious agreements and James has made a couple Faustian deals with me. Ivela is certainly a worthy apprentice. As I said, though, if Shard wants her, too, the two of you will have to fight for her. Grim, the otter, can't be affected by your type of magic, so he's not worth pursuing. I'm actively ignoring Violet. Some of the other students have yet to make an impact. I would advise against going after Reagan. She's feisty, but not in the way you'll like. You can go after Why'nn. Just know that she is Delrick's apprentice and I don't know how she'll react."



---


Valian laughed. "I dunno... the little kid seems to like guys better. I think she might actually like it if you told her. But, yeah, might just leave her with her boy toy for now." He was glad to see Grim healed. "Yeah, she had an issue with lover boy earlier. Don't really know what happened there." He shrugged. "You wanna get a snack, then meet up with Violet and Ivela?"

Standing on his left foot, testing his balance he chuckled. "An I be 'Da Sof' as she said. So I got dat on me side as well." Nodding and moving towards the concessions. "Aye, a snack be gud." He looked into the arena and vaguely watched the electricity and giant sword. 'Compensatin fer sumpin.' Wrapping an arm around the taller boys shoulder. "Less dew dat."

what I'm doing- relaxing.


Scarlet relaxed into Nishira. She had a content smile on her face as she lounged with her mistress."You always know how to unwind me." she sighed feeling as if she could sleep. It wouldn't be the first time she had been rendered unconscious by Nishira. Most times it was like this, other times she stepped over her boundaries and was sent there painfully, she always awoke tucked in bed however. She looked over at the students with lazy eyes. "I can have them all." she said waving her hand dismissing the thought that she couldn't. "They all walk along my web, I choose when and if I want to feed." her eyes fell onto Violet. "Oh my... such power being used so freely. I could feed and she may not even pass out."

Who I'm With: Violet (@StartingOver )


What I'm Doing: Talking


Ivela chuckled at the friend that she had recently and easily made, though it was a bit uneasy. The last time she had been in a family setting of any kind she tried to kill her younger brother the instant the attention was no longer focused on her. She didn't completely trust herself to not try to kill one of them.


'You'll try to kill them.' Of course, her brother and Father were right.


"I don't really know about the whole clan thing, but friendship is certainly ok." She told Violet with a smile.

What I'm doing: Getting food/Musing


Valian grinned and led the way over to the concessions. "Hey Sieg! Can we get... uh... a bag of candied nuts and... ah... hmmm... What you got that's hot?" He smiled up at the undead cook.


---


"I told you. We're ignoring her. The only way I'd let you do it is if you keep her chained in your room and use her for food."
Nishira sighed and let the girl relax against her. "Scarlet... do you need to eat right now? If so, let me know which student you want me to call up here." She wanted to indulge, but the students could see her and it wouldn't do to make herself vulnerable here.

What I'm doing- Tempted.


"You saying no makes me want it more."Scarlet said grinning. "I can hypnotize her and feed from her if you like." she offered. Stopping to think of her request. "I'm not very hungry as of now, but if you want me to show you all of what I learned send me a pretty girl." she grinned and pointed to the back of the booth. "I can do it out of sight."

Violet nodded her head. "I get it, I don't have a good social life with my family either so I can get how it would be scary. " she was learning to be more accepting of others and learn how they reacted to situations.


"No matter what we can be friends."

Who I'm With: Violet (@StartingOver )


What I'm Doing: Feeling Relieved


Ivela felt relief wash over her like a wave. She was glad that Violet understood her refusal. "I'm happy that you understand. I am quite happy that we can still be friends." Ivela probably wasn't going to be the best or most supportive friend, and she didn't know if she should warn Violet of that or not.

What I'm doing: Thinking


"It's been so long since I've known your type... Tell me what it is again."
Oh, she was interested to see what her little girl had learned. Yes, her little girl. The only one she'd apprenticed. Of course, that little bit would be kept secret from the newer teachers for now. "Most of our girls have darker hair, I hope you don't mind." For the unlife of her, she couldn't remember what her little girl liked.

Sieghart pulled out the bag of candied nuts and placed it on the counter.


"Let's see, that'll be 1 gold... and..."


Sieghart looked through his booth.


"I can do 2 pretzels for 1 gold, funnel cakes and hot dogs for 1 apeice. Condiments are free."

What I'm doing: Buying food.


Valian slid a gold across the counter for the nuts.


"Ooo, funnel cake sounds good. Can I get a couple of those?"
He slid two gold pieces forward. Either he'd eat both or offer the second one to... someone. He shrugged at the idea. Both were decent options. It was lunch soon, but a little funnel cake never hurt anyone...
 
Shard


Location: Physically - Teacher Booth Mentally - Observing reactions


With: Why'nn @folclor Ivela @Lunaria Silver Unwise individual who struck back @TommyGun15


Action: Explaining, asking.


Shard gave Why'nn a slight wave despite her seemingly-displeased stance toward his actions. He paused for a moment before shaking his head softly to her "Be still in your worries little one. This is a mere test as your friends have caught my attention for private lessons, this is.... an entrance exam of sorts. They should be just fine-..." Shard felt the magic lance back at him from James' mind, and blinked, not at all registering the effects of the attack as they never reached him, for Shard had no mind to assault, instead his "MIND"-scape was merely a small link to the multiversal pool of Madness in all things. There was no psyche to break or afflict and Shard was what many would call IMMUNE or unaffected by mental assaults due to the nature of the force behind him. Indeed so potent and wide is this force that Gods have succumbed to it's grasp or quailed from it's presence, and while Shard may be but an agent of it's will, t'would take another multiversal concept akin to Chaos or Order to match it. Not any mortal or even immortal wizard no matter how powerful, from Nagash to Gandalf the White to even the vaunted Phoenix, could affect his "mind". His attention, in the meanwhile, turned towards where the magic had come from and Shard sighed "-..Unless they do THAT. As I have no even tiny modicum of control over what happens next. 'Tis the nature of existence that now responds."


indeed James would feel what was once his own power, or rather an equivalent to it, launched back at his own mind with the same force and fervor with which it had been sent towards the Shard of Madness. It was in all ways an equal mental attack to the one he had launched, the only difference being it was now another mind-wrenching assault of Madness upon his senses. It was no more strong or weak than the one he himself had conjured, and should be able to easily tell as such should his abilities remain intact. Shard hummed, before twirling his cane and turning to Why'nn "Well, once James has that sorted out I shall attend to him. For now though, I believe I shall pay Ivela a visit. Would you like to accompany me? It will require no physical movement of course." With that, Shard turned on a heel and began walking, his cane making the same clacking noise it made on stone despite there being nothing beneath him as he went. Ivela would, unless she was deeply distracted, be able to feel the approach of that same unstable energy that had assaulted her mind approach it again, only this time it gave the equivalent, as he had at Why'nn's mind, of a knock and cleared his throat "Pardon me Miss Ivela! My name is Shard and I am a new teacher here, and I apologize for the inconvenience to your mind, you see I have selected you and others for private tutelage! Now, I am respecting your privacy as a person by knocking, but asserting my authority as a teacher by coming in anyway!"


After a brief moment, Shard attempted to enter her mind. Should he find himself "locked" from her mind, he will/would launch another mental assault on her, of varying degrees of power depending upon how fiercely she resists, if at all. Should she not resist or when he gains entry, he will greatly subdue his Madness to but a mere odd whisper once in a while in her mind as he enters it to speak to her.

Scarlet tapped her chin with her finger. "Hmmmm well I like all girls." She let out a laugh and smiled. "How about you pick mistress. Dark hair is fine. " she wiggled her shoulders some slowly.
 
Character: Frank Estello


Location: Arena


Doing: Listening closely


With: Scarlet @StartingOver and Nishira @folclor


Frank remains stoic as he listens to Nishira and Scarlet's discussion. He almost seems to take personal offense at some of Scarlet's implications, but he knows all too well that his devotion doesn't earn him the top seat on Nishira's list of preferred people not to die. If it came down to necessity, he was just as disposable as the next person that could do what he did. The pained look on his face washes away at that thought. He didn't mind the idea of being disposable... if it meant he was useful to Nishira in that moment he would do anything. Still, he can't help but glance over at the pair as they continue their conversation, despite his efforts to remain focused on his pocket watch.
 
Location: The Arena


Who I'm with: Uncle(?) Shard (@Mad Prince of Sanity) and Ivela (@Lunaria Silver), then Headmistress and someone new/Scarlet (@StartingOver) and Frank (@Pinkalyn)


What I'm doing: Accompanying, then being summoned/Deciding


Why'nn was curious. Though she wanted to support James, she found herself following the Mad Friend.


"Sir... Will you be my uncle?"
she whispered, half hiding behind Shard, tugging on his coat. In fact, she seemed to be holding onto him tightly. She would even follow him into Ivela's mind if he led there.


---


Nishira glanced at Frank and noticed the expression. First she would attend to Scarlet, then to him.


"All right. I'll give you Delrick's bird."
She snapped her fingers, teleporting Why'nn to her side and jarring the girl out of the mindscape. The lich grinned. "Girl, go with the new teacher."


---


Why'nn blinked. She gathered herself and, unable to do anything but follow orders as she was caught this unaware, stepped toward the new teacher. She glanced over and saw the doctor.


"Sir, do you know what is going-"



---


"No questions, girl. Go."
Once Scarlet and Why'nn were on their way, Nishira turned her attention to Frank.


"Come here, Frank,"
she sighed. "What's bothering you?" She offered her hand, obviously in a more motherly fashion.

"What's your name dear girl?" Scarlet asked taking Why'nn to the back of the booth. She kneeled down and smiled petting the ground I'm front of her.


"My name is Scarlet and I'm the new teacher here at the school. I'm going to have a lesson with you."

Who I'm with: Someone attacking my mind (@Mad Prince of Sanity )


What I'm doing: Trying something different


(Technically, Gandalf is the physical avatar of Mithrandir, which is sort of like the God/Sentient Embodiment of Wisdom, or Knowledge, or something like that... I'm not quite up to date on my Tolkien lore.)


James had expected another attack might occur, so when he felt the mental barrage of madness hurtle towards him, he met it with just as much force, mentally knocking it back to it's source once again. Unfortunately, another attack soon followed. Judging by the speed of retaliation, this person's mental abilities must've been much stronger than his own. Without many other options, James tried to improvise.


When the next attack hit, James wrapped it in a sort of barrier again, and used it to attempt to shape the concept of Madness into one he was more familiar with, Knowledge. He attempted to force it into a form he could understand, and hopefully he could use this to find out who'd attacked him, and possibly even replicate the attack.

What I'm doing: Serving food


Sieghart quickly served Valian two fresh funnel cakes, with powdered sugar on top. Then he took the 3 gold coins and deposited them in the cash box. The money was going towards buying some better cooking equipment, and possibly higher quality ingredients. Sieghart gave Valian a few parting words before the young man left.


"You have fun now. And stay out of trouble."

Who I am with: The teacher Scarlet (@StartingOver)


What I am doing: I want Father!!



Why'nn did as she was told, following the teacher into the back. However, she did not sit as directed. The girl, instead, shifted uncomfortably and circled around to the side, glancing around as if considering her chances of surviving the fall with little injury.






"My name is Why'nn, Mistress," she replied. Her tone was hesitant and soft. "What sort of lesson? And why did it force me to be drawn away from my friends?"

What I'm doing- stringing her along.


"Oh Why'nn you're very cute." Scarlet said. "I couldn't have asked for a better partner. I'm not teaching you dear actually you're going to help me." She smiled lying through her teeth. "See I'm about to get a job here, but Mistress wants me to show her what I can do." She used clever words like mistress to make it seem like she was just like Why'nn. Trying to trick the girl into looseing up.


"Will you help my please!" She said in a silky smooth voice.
 
Character: Frank Estello


Location: Arena


With: Nishira @folclor


Doing: Not much


Frank steps over smoothly, putting away his watch out of respect to Nishira. She deserved his full attention, after all. "Ah, bothering me? Nothing, really." he offers a sly smile, but knowing that Nishira won't accept that answer he continues, "I've just got a lot on my mind. Setting up my network again has been a bit stressful. And, well.. I can't say I've really had a chance to stretch my legs in a while. That will come after the tournament, I'm sure, but before classes I hope." a bit of black, gaseous fumes escape from his mouth as he speaks, and then suddenly there's an eye in the middle of where his mouth should be, bathed in inky blackness that seems to lead nowhere. Frank seems, now, unable to shut his mouth and slightly distraught by the fact.


Something not his own voice starts to speak, "Niii-shiii-raaaaaa! I'm huuuungry!" it almost sounds like a whiny child, but Nishira would know better. This thing has lived for a very long time, and is only attempting to be annoying. "And he's sooooo booooring! I wanna play too! Everyone gets to play but-" Frank forces his mouth closed with a finger, and the muffled sounds of struggle inside might prove somewhat amusing, but Frank looks entirely unamused.

Who I'm with: Mistress Scarlet (@StartingOver)/Frank (@Pinkalyn)


What I'm doing: Father, where are you?/Growing concerned



Why'nn shook her head vigorously and took a step back.






"You are a liar, then! You just said you are a teacher, and now you refute that idea." The girl reached for the railing around the booth. "And Mother said I do not have to submit to women like you anymore!" She climbed up, onto the railing. It was clear what she wanted to do next.


---



Nishira's expression darkened and she swiftly stood and pulled Frank into a hug.






"I've told you before, Frank. You're like my own son. Now tell me what's going on." At this she drew back, looking down at the man. Concern was written on her features and she was not the headmistress anyone knew before. This one and Delrick were the two who could get her to this point.
 
Location: Arena and Mindscape


Who I'm With: Violet (@StartingOver ) and Shard (@Mad Prince of Sanity ) Sort of anyway


What I'm Doing: Blinking


Ivela frowned, while blinking. Something was trying to assault her mind again. Then, she felt something like a knock, and heard Shard's voice. Well. There was no use fighting a teacher.


"Excuse me Violet." She stated before sitting back down, leaning back and closing her eyes. She entered her mindscape, which happened to be the room given to her when she reached the 150th floor at the Heavens Arena. It was a luxury room with several couches and a kitchen area.


She didn't try to stop Shard from entering her mind, as he was a teacher and that would only get her into trouble. Rather, she sat down on one of the couches and waited. She had a couple of questions to ask.

Who I'm with- Why'nn(@folclor


What I'm doing- trying not to lose her.


"Why would I ask someone to submit when I clearly asked them for help." Scarlet watched her. "Would you really wish to embarrass me


In front of Nishira. Would you defy our headmistress?"Scarlet stood and started moving her fingers up in front of her in a rhythmic partern. She started to say a powerful mind spell meant to ensnare it's victims quick and strong at first but wear off fast. She needed the girl to come closer.
