Sora Marvell - Magnolia Tournament
Sora tilted her head as she tried to comprehend why he didn't seem the slightest bit angry towards her. She had after-all, picked him up and just deposited him in front of someone else, before taking off with just a few words left behind. Instead, he seemed genuinely concerned which made her smile sheepishly. " The feeling is mutual. " Her smile seemed to spread even more from his words, fists clenching cutely as she mustered up the courage to add more. " And I-I missed you a lot! I'm sorry for just disappearing. I feel a lot better... thanks to you. Whenever a sad thought bubbled up, you'd pop into my thoughts and make it disappear. " It felt like her heart was fluttering about wildly, the beating of it so rapid that she almost felt the need to clutch at her chest just to calm it. Both cheeks flushed deeply, a hand reaching outwards to attempt to grasp his lightly if he'd let her, but that hope was soon crushed as Maya appeared directly in front of her. Sora's eyes went wide as she took a quick step back in means to escape, only to be brought into a cripplingly tight hug from the woman. The scene she caused barging in-between them was terrifying enough without physically feeling like she was being compressed to death.
" A-Auntie! " Sora's voice was muffled by Maya's body, her arms flailing about at her sides to show her distress from being squeezed and publicly humiliated. She clearly wasn't going to get out of this one since Maya would continue to stare at her until her questions were answered. " Sometimes you act like my mother. " Sora grumbled, arms crossing defiantly across her chest as her cheeks puffed out in a silent retort. Both eyes slid to the side to stare off somewhere before she took a deep breath and returned her gaze to the woman's face. " I went home. My emotions were heightened and it kind of just happened.. slipping into Dragonforce is becoming easier and easier, like second nature, I wasn't even trying to. " A sigh was released, that realization kind of scaring her. When had her dragonforce become so easy to slip into? It was practically subconscious that time and that worried her a bit. " One of my guildmates asked me to teach him my magic and my mind went into a dark place from my past when I was being taught it. You know I can't recall the memory, I put it in the memory days book so I'd forget it. I'm sorry.... " She felt like she was being scolded but she kept her eyes locked to Maya's., though she genuinely felt horrid for making Lysander and Maya worry about her. It even appeared that Lysander hadn't been able to sleep which furthered the guilt that she was feeling. She'd have to make it up to him somehow after the tournament.
Maya knew about the incident she had forced herself to discard, it being too painful for her to carry, so hopefully her answer would suffice for now. Sora had scooted closer to Lysander during the interrogation, her hand reaching to grasp his without even really thinking about it as it'd quickly become one of the few things she found immense comfort in. That probably wouldn't escape Maya's gaze and she only hoped that she'd be spared even more public taunting. " I just came to wish Lysander good luck in the tournament since I heard he was in it and I wanted to let him know I'd be cheering him on. No pressure or anything! " Plus she really just wanted to see him and be there in case anything happened and he needed any sort of medical attention. Hopefully that wouldn't be the case and Sora had the utmost confidence in him, whether he won or lost. " Also I get to be right outside the battle area since I need quick access if I'm needed so I get the best view! " She beamed proudly, grinning over at Lysander. Honestly, she wanted to open up to him more and she made a silent vow to work on that the best she could. Opening up wasn't her strongest point but if she was going to learn how to then she was glad she'd chosen to try with someone as wonderful and caring as him.
