When Masumi places her finger on Lilian's nose she goes cross eyed for the moment it happened following the finger as she does it. Then when Masumi reaches for Lilian's hand she looks on with a slightly tilted head, her wondering what she was up to at that moment. Subtle movements of affection and flirting as alien as they could get, nothing short of a full on barrage would get to her probably. As the flame danced and sparked something new Lilian simply double blinked, it seeming that she was doing something new. The flame looked rather volatile as if this was what she was doing earlier, which would explain the marks and soot on the floor as well as the bang.


She glanced from the flame and noticed that Masumi was once again red faced, perhaps due to something that Lilian had done recently. However she did not think on that long seeing as how a firefly flew into the window and rested on Masumi's nose, her figuring that this would distract her from whatever she was doing. With that in mind she uses as little trick she picked up to get flies away to grab the firefly, a small tendril moving out to grad the bug. It encircles the fly and brings it back to Lilian it now resting in her free hand, cupped and safe.


With that done she glances back over at Masumi, and hopes that she didn't interrupt whatever she was attempting. The exact reason she had taken Lilian's hand not entirely clear to her, but she figured there was a good reason behind it. With that she simply sits there and awaits what she was attempting to do, the firefly safe in Lilian's free hand in it's darkness bubble for now.

Masumi sat still for what seemed like years. A little bug, rested on her nose glowing with the same light as the fire in her hand. The firefly beat it's wings happily. A excited expression swept over Masumi's face as she watched the little creature move around. A small shadow, crosses over her nose and lift's the firefly off, she looks over and traces it back to Lilan's hand where she carefully cupped it in her free hand. Looking back over at the hand that held the flame, it danced happily. Staring at it for a moment, she clenches her hand into a fist which extinguishes the flame. "I did it.." she whispers in disbelief. Looking back over to Lilian, she had captured the small creature inside a small orb of darkness. The creature glowed inside. Then looking down, she sees her hand entangled with Lilian's.


Jumping up, she doesn't let go and looks Lilian in the eyes. "Lili! I did it!" She laughs in joy, tears in her eyes. Now, she let go of the white haired girl's hand and fell to the floor laughing. It had taken her over 3 years to even get close to stabilizing that pyromancy. All it took was holding a cute girl's hand. Staring at the ceiling for a moment, she takes a deep breath. Clears her throat. Then stands up, whips her eyes and faces Lilian. "S-sorry." She chuckles rubbing the back of her head.

Lilian moves the firefly over to the opened window and releases it outside the tendril vanishing shortly after. At the same time she was doing that Masumi released her hand and sprung up and away, and for some reason she was looking a bit awkward or perhaps it was nervous....she wasn't sure. "Sorry, what are you sorry for?" Lilian simply asked, her double blinking as she looks back from letting the bug fly from the window. The exact reason as to why she was sorry didn't really make sense to Lilian, although that wasn't anything new.


She pondered for a moment on whether or not she was apologizing for the sudden outburst of tears and exclamation of joy, or maybe it was the hand holding. She paused her thought for a moment and also pondered on that it could be a combination of the two things, which seemed ultimately plausible to her. Neither thing seemed like they needed an apology though, seeing as how Lilian didn't mind them. With that in mind Lilian grabbed the girls hand in her own and said with a nod, "I have no problem with hand holding, or are you apologizing for something else?" She sat there for a moment with Masumi's hand in her own, not minding the touch whatsoever.


This girl was odd but Lilian didn't mind her being around, in truth she found her company to be quite a breath of fresh air...as they say.

There was an audible crunch as some fool riding a motorcycle drove right over Kit's foot. Kit quickly looked downwards at his broken foot, before looking back at the motorcycle fool. "Oi! Watch where you're driving! That freaking hurt!" Kit wasn't lying. It did hurt. Fortunately, he could already feel his broken bones healing.

 

[Bishop]

Gears bike jumped to one side as he heard a crunch. He almost fell off but stuck his foot out at the last minute. Holding the bike still, his eyes widened as he relised what he had done "Ah fuck! I am so sorry!" He kicked the stand out and approached the stranger "Yeah i know! i know! i am sorry! Do you need to go to the infirmary?" He asked this question with genuine care


"Good going idiot" He thought to himself "You wanted to make friends? Well this isn't how you do it! I hope hes not too hurt"


@Daimao

@Blacknife


Kit held a finger up, signalling the guy who just ran his foot over to wait a moment. Pausing for a moment, he smiled. "Nah man, it's all good. It's already healed," he said nonchalantly. "Man it sure would've sucked if I couldn't regenerate," he laughed. "Anyways, what's your name, Mysterious Man Who Attacked Me With A Motorcycle?"

 

[Bishop]

Gears tilted his head slightly before looking around on the ground for something that he could have run over instead of his foot. He couldn't find anything so he looked at the boy mouth wide open.


He straightened up before finally responding "Um...My name is John but um...most people call me Gears" He offered his hand for a handshake towards the apparently invincible man.


"So healing huh?"


@Daimao

 

[Daimao]

"Amongst other things," Kit replied with a grin. "Name's Kit. Well, not really, but I doubt you could pronounce my real name," he said with a chuckle as he shook Gears's offered hand. "I'm a basilisk. Judging from your smell, I assume that you're a human?" He asked with a grin, amused by Gears's amazement at his regenerative abilities.


@Blacknife

 

[Bishop]

Gears let go of kits hand "Pleasure to meet you Kit! Yeah i am human...Um...I am here because i am an Arcane Engineer" He smiled at Kit before asking "Other things? Like what?"


Gears was clearly kinda socially awkward but didn't appear rude or obnoxious. His experiences with other people always went...south.

[Honeybee]

After finishing talking with the bee about honey and books Flora felt observed, she looked around to see if someone else was there, Flora sees a figure near there, Maybe it is friendly? Flora thought, she used her insect vision to see better, she sees a handsome boy. Flora got up and started walking towards him, she smiled "Hello I'm Flora.." one butterfly lands on her shoulder "I'm new here.." she looked at the butterfly and smiled.


@One Mean Ghost

 

[Daimao]

Kit smiled at Gears's question. "Oh, you know. Normal basilisk stuff. Poisonous breath, venomous fangs, petrifying gaze. And obviously regeneration," he said with a chuckle. "So, now that I've told you mine, why don't you tell me your abilities. Other than running people over with motorcycles, that is," he asked, his aloof smile never leaving his lips.


@Blacknife

 

[Bishop]

Gears gave Kit a childish smile "Oh um...." He frowned. It was kinda hard to tell someone what he does sometimes "I can shift mass into something else. Like...I can use the ground to make a pillar or building or in some cases weapons but uh" He shrugged slightly "I don't believe in making weapons with em" He looked up and thought for a second "Um its better if i show you..." He span around and moved the bike before walking back and stating "Ask me to build anything you could possibly imagine! Ill make it!" Gears was smiling like a big child again.

Charlotte was taken back by the sudden creation of the flowers made into a circle, unaware of what the name was. Handing it to her, she was hesitant of what it could be but at the same time intrigued by the object. It was colorful and pretty, something that sparked an interest in her like Hide did with his two colored eyes, flower on top of his head, and flower abilities. He was strange but so was Charley so she quickly trusted him in taking the crown. "Flower circle?" Glancing up for only a few seconds to meet eyes with him before looking around the object. Once again, she was lost in what it could be.


@Col

 

[Daimao]

"Hmm," Kit tapped his chin with his pointer finger as he thought for something for Gears to make. Glancing around his surroundings, he searched for an idea. Suddenly, a spark of inspiration hit him. "Oh! I know! Make a statue! Of...um...uh...a...uh...bird, I guess?"

Dante slowed the beating of his wings, letting himself descend until his boots touched the ground ever so lightly. "I'm Dante, nice to meet you. It seems we've got a lot of new transfers lately..." He remarks with a trademark grin.


"I'm going to go out on a limb and assume your powers are insect related?" He inquired, tilting his head curiously at the butterfly landing on her shoulder. As a senior here, he had developed something of a knack for guessing someone's abilities. What would you expect from someone who regularly people watches at a place like this?


As usual, even as he carried on his conversation, music could be heard through his headphones, though he didn't even miss a beat during conversation...


@KPnightmare

 

[Col]

Hide gives a quick smile and gestures for her to put it on her head, "It's called a flower circlet, its like a tiara, but made of flowers," going back to petting the cat, Hide sees Charlotte gently rest the circlet on her head, seeing as she put it on wrong, he gestures for her to come a little closer, adjusting the circlet, he asks, "Does Charlotte like the circlet?"

Letting her hands drop down to her sides, she looks at Lilian's blank expression. The girl in front of her was the one solely responsible for her achievement. For a moment she stares at her as she let the little light bug go out the window. Her long, white hair flew as a breeze flew by the window. Her dark, ruby red eyes. Mysterious and powerful, yet intriguing and beautiful. Was it right, for a girl to like a girl? She felt her heart skip a beat as she asked herself that question. 'It feels right.' She thinks to herself, maybe that was all that mattered. Caught off guard by the question she snap's back into reality. "Oh, uhh.. Just for, everything." She told her. "The explosion, and.." She stops as the white haired girl reaches for something. Feeling the same, soft and warm hand as before.


Again, her cheeks felt warm. It was easy to fluster Masumi, but this was different. This time she looked at Lilian in her eyes, rather than away. This time, she didn't look for any emotion, or change. She just simply looked. Tightening her grip lightly around the other girls hand, she smiles. "Yeah, me either." She spoke softly. Time seemed to slow, as she stood there holding the girls hand. For a moment, she wondered if the girl felt attracted to her to. Or if she was just along for the ride, and didn't really know what was going on. It was hard to tell with her emotionless stare. But deep down, she was sure there was a person under that face, who felt just like she did. At least, she hoped so.

As Hide adjusted the tiara on top of her head for her, Charley watched his movement with her eyes. Leaning back after he had fixed it, she responded with a blink or two. She tried to look at the crown with her eyes looking up at the head but only saw her own bangs. "Thanks you." Charlotte responded as she reached her finger tips up to feel the petals around her head, pressing gently so the flowers wouldn't wilt. "Flower magic pretty." Thinking back to her own flower which wasn't pretty but rather practical than anything.


@Col

 

[Honeybee]

"It's too obvious?" she giggles whispering something to the butterfly, the butterfly flew and landed in his head, then it flew off, back to its house. " Yeah, you can say that...what about you?" she smiles and thinks about fly seeing his wings "Want to fly with me?" she was excited.

 

[One Mean Ghost]

"When I caught you talking to a bee, it became rather obvious" Dante remarked with a soft laugh. At her second comment he stretched his wings, letting his eyes close as he let himself remember the true thrill of flight.


"That sounds fun. I was shocked when I found out how few here were actually able to fly" He explained, his wings giving two strong beats and lifting him up into the air. Of course, He was aware he couldn't fly at full speed. Even those few students that could fly were unable to keep up with him when he did. And that was not even breaking the sound barrier...


"But before you get the wrong idea, I'm not an angel, fallen or otherwise" He explained shaking his head. Given his dark plumage, it was incredibly common for people to get mixed up... No one ever guessed he was a siren, or a demon. Pretty much no one ever was able to accurately guess what he was... At this point, Dante was incredibly accustomed to correcting people's misconceptions...

[Col]

Smiling at Charlotte glancing at her flower, Hide gently says, "I think your flower is very pretty," he gestures towards her flower, and then his own, "Look, were just like twins," hoping the sentence would illicit a response from the doll like girl, he continues talking, "So, may I ask why you are here, or what your species is, I am myself a Electric Purple Dusk Rose Dryad, my real body is this flower," he pauses to gestures towards his flower, "If anything hurts that flower, I will be put into a coma and possibly die," He smiles strokes the cat, and waits for her to respond.


@Defective Kitten

 

[Honeybee]

"I did not think you're an angel." her pale butterfly wings came out of her back, levitating in the air "There are more far creatures with wings." she smiled, and flew close to him "I like your feathers." she gently touches his wings with her delicate fingers, "sorry..they are very soft." she gave him a warm smile "Do you know some place to relax?" Flora asks.


@One Mean Ghost

 

[One Mean Ghost]

Dante laughed softly, clearly not minding having his wings touched. "I'm glad you approve of them, I can't exactly get rid of them" he remarked laughing as they flew higher into the air. "there are several places to relax, actually, personally I usually choose the trees, but there are several rooftops you can only reach by flying that work too" He remarked, nodding to a few buildings and some particularly tall trees. There were perks to being able to fly. This girl seemed nice. She was certainly friendly at least...


@KPnightmare

 

[Defective Kitten]

It took Charlotte a moment or two before being able to decipher what he meant but ended up understanding in the end, the first part that is. "Charlotte is a puppet, she has soul in..." Reaching to her chest to point where her heart should be,"...here. She controls things with strings." As she spoke, she used demonstrated be using a little of her own ability to create small wired puppets that danced around each other until she made them unravel to retract back into her fingertips.


Hearing the rest of his introduction, she couldn't quite process what he meant by coma and death. "Hide will die? Hide is sick?" Reaching up to place her fingers on his always rosey seeming cheeks, "Hide warm so will die?" Asking him as she reached just a little higher to stroke one of the petals on his flower gently. Today was the second time that a boy was sick due to flushed cheeks, does every boy just get sick easily and do they die because of it? How worrisome.

Somewhat of what she was doing

"Hide won't die unless someone hurts him, Hide is not sick, you don't have to worry Charlotte, I will always be your friend," Hide smiles before checking the time, "Damn," he mutters, "I need to go to class," Hide gently places the cat on the bed so he would not wake it, and stands up, "Charlotte, c'mon, you can pet the cat later," looking at his schedule, he sees that he is in science, gesturing for Charlotte, he heads to his classroom.
