Academy for Rejected Souls (Multiverse, OC)

Hallways


"I'll make it better I swear." Scarlet said softly holding on to Why'nn. "Imalia can help me. You trust me still? Then please put your faith in me one more time." She smiled and whiped her tears. Before leading Why'nn into the room.


"if it's anything mental I can help." Scarlet offered. "You know i'm strong." She thought about it and pondered it. "Making us free is risky."

The second Scarlet stepped into view, James summoned another dozen or so lances, which all pointed menacingly at her.  Meanwhile, a dozen or so magical alarms blared in everyone's ears, although James himself still had his own ears plugged with wax.  He also had built a small fortress of furniture around himself, which he was currently peeking over, fixing Scarlet with a suspicious glare.

He smirked at her comment about planning and nodded. " Don't tell me the owl is STILL judging you for that?" Raising an eyebrow at his own quotation. He stood in a relaxed manner. "Don't forget I was once Thayan as well. I understand well how much trouble she will have, and why I think it is important she experience them with supervision. Again you are correct the tome is not in Thay. A tenday is the minimum time needed. I would prefer two tendays in Faerun, but one will be enough to secure the tome." It was true he had hoped for longer, but ten days would suffice. "If got whatever reason this will take longer or we have not secured it within that time I will send her back and return when I have it." She would sense his honesty and earnestness in that promise. 


Delrick could feel the strong sense of confusion coming from Why'nn, through the binding she would feel a sense of calm and clarity. The aura for Nishira would not falter or change at all, in fact it would feel more comfortable as he focused.
 
Hallway/Mistress Imalia's Chambers

Why'nn had to think for a moment.  Did she trust Mistress?  She must.  Otherwise, why would she run so freely to her?  Why'nn allowed herself to be led into the room.  "Yes, Mistress."  Upon entering, upon seeing the door to James's room open, Why'nn gasped and broke away from Mistress, running toward the open door.  "JAMES!" she exclaimed.  Clarity came to her through the binding and she smiled as she knew Father was still paying attention, no matter how far he was away.


"No, it has very little to do with the mind," Imalia replied, catching the girl.  'You're an idiot,' she wanted to say.  However, both James and Scarlet had a soft spot for Why'nn, so the enchantress kept that little bit to herself.  "There are traps leading all the way up to him."  She now turned her attention to her apprentice.  "James, you may drop your defenses and come out.  Scarlet won't hurt you this time."  The door to her room closed, making sure they'd have no unwelcome entrants.

Nishira frowned.  "The owl has never stopped judging anyone for anything.  And, for some reason, Quill keeps leaving romance novels on my desk."  The lich gestured to the plethora of books with covers featuring men with bared chests holding scantily clad damsels.  "Two tendays...  You have my permission, I'll push the mission back.  If you don't have it in twenty days you are to send her back.  Though... that is almost a month, which means the mission will bleed into winter break..."  For a moment, she considered declining his request but... he was her favorite and she wanted to keep their relationship as it currently was.  "Very well, very well... you have your twenty days and you may take your apprentice.  If, for any reason, I should need to call either of you back I reserve the right to."

@folclor @StartingOver

James did't hear what Imalia said, but he could guess well enough from her posture and expression.  He pulled the chunks of wax from his ears, and began disabling the explosive runes he'd dotted the room with.  Then he stepped slowly out of his room, and wrapped his arm around Why'nn, hugging her close and he glared suspiciously at Scarlet.


"Hey Why'nn...  I'm glad you're okay."  James lowered his voice so that Scarlet wouldn't hear.  "She didn't hurt you did she?"
 
James's Room


@TommyGun15 @StartingOver


Why'nn hugged James tightly, taking a deep breath and simply relaxing in his arms, surrounded by his scent.  "I do not remember," she admitted.  "But I do not believe so."  Her words were as soft as always, meaning only James would hear them with her face buried, as it was, against his chest.  "I would like to kiss you, James.  May I kiss you?"  The girl had an overwhelming need for affection at the moment and, should he look into her mind, he would know that she desired more than affection.
 
My Room


@folclor @StartingOver

James nodded and gently kissed Why'nn, not daring to let go of her or a minute.  Opening his mind a bit, he saw that she was in the mood for something a bit more... affectionate, James drew her into his lap and began to cuddle her.  He spoke to her quietly


"I think this might be the most that is appropriate at the moment.  It would be rude of us to excuse ourselves at the moment, and I don't think Imalia or Scarlet would appreciate that sort of... affection... in their presence."


Still, James held Why'nn gently in his arms, letting her sit in his lap as he ran his fingers through her hair, stopping every so often to give her a gentle, passionate kiss.
 
James's Room


@TommyGun15 @StartingOver


Why'nn grinned as he drew her to him, kissing him back with as much passion as she could.  She snuggled in close, but did not fight him on his logic.  "That makes sense," she replied, resting against him.  In truth, she liked the attention and the affection more than was, perhaps, prudent and this was only bolstered by her love for him.  She wouldn't attempt to move from him and would likely become hostile if either Imalia or Scarlet tried to separate the two of them.
 
Nishira's Office


@folclor


Delrick held his smirk, but refrained from commenting the pile of smut books on her desk. 'He knows something, obviously.' The monk nodded his understanding of the time limits and restrictions. " Of course Nishira. That is only prudent, though we shall be back before you must recall us and with the tome." He smiled as he repacked the papers, scrolls, and maps. Once he was done he looked to her and nodded. "It would be best if we set out within the hour. But if you would prefer we could leave after this evening and our chat." He knew she would be torn, but would most likely, in his time with her, lean for the mission to begin right away. She generally didn't like to wait once things were even close to being ready. But she had surprised him in the past a few times. 


The feeling of calm and clarity would continue to fill Why'nn and help give back some of her focus.

@Grim Wraithe Stjerna


"Find someone to deal with your classes, then leave.  The sooner you leave the sooner you get back.  If you can't figure out someone to teach in your place you will have to leave your apprentice behind so she can, at least, lead the first year meditation."  She still didn't like the thought of him leaving, but she'd already given permission.  Nishira took a deep breath and recommitted herself to this course of action.  She wanted to grab onto the monk and make him stay, but she let it go.
 
Imalia's room.


"I'll make it very clear."Scarlet said. "I don't trust you at all James. I'm very much aware of what you've been doing, however Why'nn likes you. I won't punish her for my personal feelings." She turned away from them now and walked over. She smiled as she sat down on of the chairs.


"I remmeber this chair, I feel like I've spent a lot of time here."

Cafeteria


No-One in particular 


Brask'hal'azhura was , as usual , among the very first students to arrive in the Cafeteria. She consumed the same food as all other students (who didn't require special diets) , though she did feel it should be optimized for nutrional value as opposed to taste. After wordlessly receiving her food from the Chef , she quickly chose a seat farther from where most of the students tended to congregate - indeed , she was alone at the table she had chosen. The Chiss Woman preferred to eat her food slow and methodically , which was just what she did. In her mind , it was best for keeping a steady energy throughout the day. 
 
Nishira‘s Office


@folclor


Delrick nodded to his mistress, grateful she was granting him permission, and he could tell she did not want him to go. She had never been good about hiding her feelings from him. Though he would never admit that insight to her. "I will Nishira, i was thinking of asking Geralt since he's back and his senior students wee teaching his classes anyways. " Before he left her office he picked through the pile of books and after a moment handed her one with a sunset background on the ocean with a blonde haired man in a ripped white shirt, holding a dark haired beauty in a tattered bodice dress, and handed it to her. "This is a good one try it out." The warlock said with a wink as he stepped out of her office and into his own room. Chuckling at the thought of her throwing the book after him.

@StartingOver @TommyGun15


Imalia shook her head at the pair.  "I don't think it'd be wise to keep them apart.  Nishira has plans."  Still, she did make sure the door to James's room closed so she wouldn't have to see the gross display of affection between them.  "Yes, Lettie, you have.  That's always been your favorite chair.  James prefers the couch"   The enchantress shrugged and sighed.  "So you want to be fixed...  As I said before, I can make you how you used to be.  I wouldn't mind doing so, but it would make Nishira come down hard on both of us."


My Office


@Grim Wraithe Stjerna


Nishira nodded at his observation.  "The Witcher is currently in the Ritual Room.  He's putting a few students through a trial."  However, as he handed her the book before he walked out the door her mouth fell open in shock.  "Wha- You!  HEY!"  He stepped into his room, just narrowly missing the book that would've hit him square in the face.  The headmistress appeared to blush.
 
Imalia's room


"I don't scare easy or at all frankly." Scarlet said  shurgging. "Nishira wanted a apex predator, but now I'll make her regret it." Scarlet smiled. "Give me what you deem necessary but I want to keep the spider. You won't be around much longer Imalia. Someone needs to protect these kids. Think of me as your legacy." She smiled. "Nishira loves me, I'm pretty sure I can get away with being myself and still being every thing she wants."

James frowned slightly as the door to his room was shut, hating the feeling of being left out.  But, at least Why'nn was here, so maybe they could keep each other company.  Actually...  he did have an idea for a game he'd sometimes play by himself.  He supposed Why'nn might be able to play it with him, so maybe it was worth a shot?  He kissed Why'nn again and spoke to her with a mischievous smile on his face.


"Hey Why'nn, want to play a quick game that I made up?  It's simple.  One person casts a spell, then the other person casts another spell in response and they take turns.  If the two spells combine or react to each other to do something interesting, the second person gets a point.  If the spells do nothing or cancel each other out, that person loses a point.  And if the spells backfire, or cause an explosion or something like that, the second person loses a point.  Want to play?"

Imalia sighed.  "Oh Lettie... You can't be what she wants unless she owns you and you know it, as much as you try to pretend.  I was, once, in your position.  I was her pet, her plaything.  That was long before you came along..."  She shook her head.  "You don't think you have fear until she lets you have it again.  She took that away from you...  So she can give it back again.  You still have that brashness, that overconfidence.  You should work on tempering that."

"A game?"  Oh!  "The only game I ever played was..."  She shook her head, dismissing it.  "Yes, yes, I would like to play this game with you!"  Why'nn smiled wide.  "Do you wish me to go first or shall you?"  She did take a moment to steal one more kiss before she hopped out of his lap, posturing herself for this game.

@folclor @StartingOver




James smiled as Why'nn hopped out of his lap to begin the game.  He gathered his Will in preparation for casting a spell.


"I'll go first.  I don't mind, and it'll help you get an idea of how this game works."


James pointed into the air about halfway between them, and a mote of fire floated in midair, about a foot above their heads.


"Alright, now you cast a spell."
 
Imalia's room


Scarlet laughed some. "So I was always a cocky bitch." She shurghed. "If being owned allows me to protect them then I will be owned." Scarlet sighed. "I understand the weight of what i just said Imilia, but i'll put those kids over myself." She started to laugh hard. She paused after a moment l. "Being selfless feels kinda good."

@TommyGun15


Why'nn watched and found herself struggling to think of anything to cast.  "I... do apologize in advance, James, I do not know how to cast spells that are not... exactly what the tomes state so... I will do my best."  She concentrated, whispering her spell as she moved her hands as necessary.  Finally, she jumped up and touched the fire.


For a moment nothing happened and Why'nn worried that, perhaps, Lord Jergal had turned his favor from her.  However, a moment later iron burst forth.  At first it seemed it was going to attempt its usual form, but mixing with the power of James's Will it formed an iron ball wreathed in flames.

Imalia took a deep breath.  "I see...  We'll have to work with that."  As the enchantress spoke, she realized her feet were disappearing.  Her use of so much elemental magic combined with the game the children were playing was sapping her energy.  Thinking quickly, she made sure the lights weren't so bright and made sure to keep Scarlet's attention on her upper body.  "Do you think it wise for me to give you back yourself this morning?"
 
Imalia's room


Scarlet gave a nod. "Give me whatever you wish." She stood. "Hey Imalia, you think I could give enegry instead of taking it?" She gave it a thought. "Who knows I'd like to try it if you don't mind." She had zero  idea if it would work, but if it gave imalia, a few more hours then it would be worth it.

Imalia sighed. "I don't know the extent of your powers. If you mean to give it to me, however, you shouldn't try. I don't have life energy as others do. I am pure arcana. If you wish to give to others I suggest you figure out how to accomplish this technique before trying it. It could work well... Or it could be a harmful force."
 
Imalia's room


Scarlet smiled. "You're always so rooted in reality Imlaia. " She walked back over to her and looked at her.


"So where do you want to do this?" She looked around the room. It felt warm and welcoming to her. She felt at home, which made her assume that she was right. She had spent many moments in here.

James's Room


@folclor

James grinned as Why'nn cast her spell, watching the all of molten fire carfully so it didn't go out of control.


"That was so cool Why'nn.  That's a point for you.  Alright, now you cast a spell, and I'll do something in response."


James snapped his fingers and focused his will on getting rid of the molten metal.  Slowly, the fie died as the metal cooled into a lump of melted slag.  James picked up the hunk of metal and set it on his desk.  It would make a nice paperweight.

No one / @TommyGun15


Delrick chuckled to himself for a moment before getting a fresh cup of coffee. He did miss talking with and having Nishira as his friend. He would make good on his promise to spend time with her talking at night. Once his cup was filled and the papers and scrolls packed into his bag he focused on the a Ritual Room and stepped there. 


Delrick seemed to step out of nothing sipping his coffee. He looked around and spotted Geralt tending to almost a dozen students. Speaking quietly, but loud enough for the alchemy teacher to hear him he knew. " The Trial of Grasses is it? Which one will be yours?" The monk knew the monster Hunter wouldn't be conducting the trial unless he'd finally chosen an apprentice.
