"A tree would be good." Flora replied while flying high "Can you show me?" Flora smiled following him, he is gentle atleast he.. she saw some bee and waved to them the bees looked at Flora and came back to the beehive, she looked at h im "Wanna see a cool trick?" she turned her head 360 degrees, the she tuned her head back from the old spot. "Cool right?"

 

[One Mean Ghost]

He laughed softly. "If I tried that, I'd need a serious appointment with a chiropractor" he remarked, flying towards one of the huge redwood trees on campus. About three quarters of the way up, some of the branches had been cleared away to make almost a room among the branches. He tucked his wings as he landed, sitting on a set of branches that seemed set up like a chair. "This is one of my preferred spots. Excellent for people watching" He nodded towards the opening in the branches, which overlooked the central courtyard of the school. "I'd show you some of my tricks... but my abilities are mostly.... well... destructive..." he murmured, rubbing the back of his head awkwardly.


-Besides my singing at least.. but I don't like messing with people's emotions....-





Then he remembered, he did have one trick that wasn't destructive. "Well, except this one..." Only, it wasn't his voice that came from his mouth, it was hers. Sound mimicry...

A part of Lilian wondered if this was what a normal person would do, or someone that was not like herself. Typical behavior wasn't something that she really was attuned to, which would become apparent in just the first minuet of talking with her. The sensation that the hand holding offered was different than when her mother used to do it when she was but a child, back then it was somewhat of a safe and secure feeling. Now it felt warm and strange, but it wasn't a bad feeling...it was just something that she could not wrap her head around. The sheer intricacies that she was experiencing right now was far more dumbfounding than any test or quiz that she has taken, and far more in depth than any report previously done.


When Masumi tightened her hand on Lilian's she simply double blinked, the notions of affection and attraction being somewhat known to her but only in their basic forms. She had read many things on them, most of them being rather explanatory...to a pretty wide extent. They however didn't explain the emotions or feelings that come along with such an attraction or the reasons behind them, Lilian understanding that such things are learned through action rather than reading. Her mother often said, 'Life lessons are learned through acts, not print,' and in this case it seems that her mother was dead on accurate once more.


With all of that floating around in her mind she looks up at Masumi and asks her eyes batting as she does so, "What emotions or feelings are related to ones attraction to someone else?" She locks eyes with her and holds up their hands, "At the moment I feel warm, is that one associated with attraction?" The question was point blank, it being slap in your face obvious that she isn't afraid to speak her mind about anything...

 

[Honeybee]

she laughed "Good trick." sitting on the branches, Flora was not heavy so she can sit easily, " I understand you. my skills are most for protect and attack, I'm like a wasp a bee, praying mantis, dragonfly, and etc ..all of it formed in a girl." she smiles, "I have another trick.."there is a ant behind you." she points the small ant.

 

[One Mean Ghost]

He blinks, checking behind himself, and sure enough, the ant was there. "That's a cool trick" he smiled back at her, still speaking in her voice. "My mother was a siren, so a lot of her sound based abilities I picked up..." He explained. He cleared his throat, and when he opened his mouth, this time a piano solo of "Moonlight Sonata" came from his mouth. It didn't sound like a human voice, it sounded like a piano playing it... Such a relaxing melody...

When Lilian inquired about how it felt to be attracted to someone, Masumi didn't break eye contact. Lost in thought for a moment, she considers the girl's question. "I.. I suppose you feel like there are butterfly's in your belly. And that you want to be with that person more than anyone else." She started. When she was growing up, she was never great at explaining her feelings to others, but it seemed like Lilian had it worse. As Lilian holds the two's hands up together, and inquires further about 'warmth' Masumi feels her cheeks grow warm yet again. If blushing was a Olympic event, she would be a gold medalist in it.


Glancing over at the two's hands, intertwined, then back at Lilian's ruby eyes she smiles. "Yeah, It can be." She says quietly. Looking down at her feet, she adds. "I also feel warm." This girl, this mysterious girl. Masumi wanted to know more about her. Wanted to be with her more, she was easy to talk to. Getting a idea, she leans down and reaches into her school bag with her free hand pulling out the candy bar that Lilian had given to her when they first meet. "I guess it's kinda like chocolate, you like it and always want more." It wasn't the best example, but she felt it was the best one that Lilian could relate to. "It's sweet." She added.

"You would want more," she stated aloud as she looked at the candy bar that Masumi now holds in front of her, the analogy making sense to Lilian in a way. If it was similar to how she likes white chocolate sweets then she does have a sort of understanding as to how it feels, in a mediocre sense. With that in her mind she cocks her head and simply stated looking into Masumi's eyes, he quite curious now, "So you want more of me then." The comparison that Masumi had just used sort of turned around as Lilian thought about it from the opposite perspective, her wondering if that was the same way that Masumi saw it.


She understood the aspect of wanting more chocolate but is that the same as wanting more of a person, her knowing what that would entail. Lilian may be only 16 but she is well read and her mother wasn't shy on aspects of growing up, her figuring that knowing is far better than ignorance of the fact. That is one thing that Lilian had taken to heart and the chief reason she completed all of the core classes early in her tenner at The Academy. With the statement posed she holds Masumi's hand with two of her own, awaiting a response Lilian quite curious at the moment.

Masumi's eyes widened in surprise from Lilian's statement. Though, she wasn't wrong in a way. Looking down at her hand, sandwiched now in-between Lilian's two hands, she felt calm. The feeling swept over her as she took a moment to think of what to say next. "Warmth.." She thought aloud. Never before had she felt this warmth, out of all her years of pyromancy, this was special. Looking down at her lap she speaks. "I do." Her mouth hung open for a moment, trying to think of something else to say, but nothing came out. She never wanted this moment to end. The two girls sitting in a open windowsill as the cool, crisp evening breeze blew into the room. Looking back up at Lilian, she takes her free hand, and places it on top of Lilian's head. "I do, because you're sweet like chocolate. You make me happy." She concluded with a nod, cheeks still crimson. Her hair was softer than she thought, and smooth like silk.

She watches as Masumi places her hand on top of her head and calls her sweet, that being the first time someone had called her such a thing. She knew what the word meant and what the comparison to a person would mean, although she never thought of herself as a sweet individual. In most circumstances she thought of herself like her mother of which most would not think of her to be sweet. Although Lilian could see that some people would have different perspectives on such things, her seeing her mother as loving and sweet. With that in mind she lets go of Masumi's hand and lets it fall, her replying right back to her as she pats Lilian on the head, "In that case I will oblige."


The prospect of knowing this girl better didn't seem like a bad idea, her at first glance being a rather pleasant individual. Lilian had a keen sense of who someone really was and in Masumi she could feel no malice or anger, which indicates that she is a good person. "In return," she says and then pauses, a light smile creeping across her face for the first time displaying quite an adorable visage, "I wish to have more of you as well." This being the one time in countless years that she had smiled, although it was in now way an indication that she would change whatsoever. At this moment she simply felt like doing it, it quickly fading back into her usual expressionless visage after the statement.

Flora listens to the song and she relax and looks at the sky "I like this song, it's calm." she looks at the sky and then looks at him, Flora grins when she senses another ant but in his head should I tell him? she took a moment to think, she picks the ant of his head and laughs softly, letting the ant go. "The ants like you.." she smiled.

 

[One Mean Ghost]

He laughed softly, his voice his own once again. "So I've noticed, they crawl on me a lot when I'm up here" He remarked shaking his head. He leaned back on the branch, just enjoying the peace and her company. "so what do you think of the school so far?" He looked out at the school, just watching the people below, unaware that one person in particular was looking back at him with malicious intent.


"There he is... the hellspawn of the demon Enferno and the Siren Rayna... Exorcists have been chomping at the bit to find him when they realized he still lived...." Alexander Salvatore licked his lips, watching Dante in the tree.. "Just think how much rep I'll gain from claiming his head... I'll be famous... and more importantly... I'll have all the girls after me, the Hero that saved them from the horrible demon spawn" He snickered, images running through his head. "Just a matter of time... once that girl isn't around..." He crossed his arms over his chest. Despite his hellbent intent to kill the demon, he couldn't let a girl get caught in the crossfire... that would just look horrible on his rep....

Letting out a small giggle as she puts her hand on her head, Masumi nods. "I'm glad. I wouldn't have it any other way." Knowing that she probably wouldn't show much emotion, she wondered if she was going to regret making this connection with the white haired girl. But, immediately dismissed the idea. She was too cute to let go of. Also, Lilian seemed to be full of surprises, and that peeked her interest. What hid behind those ruby eyes? Letting her hand drop back down into her lap, she looks into them once again. So deep, and intoxicating. She almost felt hypnotized by them. Snapping out of it when the girl in front of her speak again. "Return?" She questions. But, when a smile replaced the usual absence of emotion on the girls face. Masumi felt her heart skip a beat. Her mouth, hung open for a moment, trying to think of something to say but words escaped her. This, couldn't be a regular occurrence. Closing her mouth, she smiles back, and places her burned palm on Lilian's cheek and speaks quietly. "Deal."


Wishing that the moment could last forever, but knew it could not Masumi stands and lets her burned palm drop from Lilian's cheek. Again, using the same pyromancy as before, a small ball of flame appeared between her palms. Letting it float out into the air, she holds her palm up the the flame. A warm, tingling sensation fills her hand as the once burned skin returns to its normal, smooth self. Taking her hand back, she rubs her wrist and looks back at Lilian. "Do you have any other classes today?"

[Honeybee]

She looked at him "Yes, the people are polite, and I met friend here." she makes a pause "you know it's you." after some minutes she felt observed "Hey have you been...bullied? I know it's a crazy question .."

 

[Mediocritys Muse]

@Ellie the Knight


She simply nods and then says with a double blink, "Yes I do." She pauses and then adds, "Although they are electives and do not require regular participation." That was what she was aiming for on her freshman year, getting all of the mandatory crap out of the way so she could learn on her own time in later grades. The headmistress of the school only allowed it because she thought that Lilian could handle the pressure and she was correct about that, Lilian passing each class with quite remarkable high marks. She wondered why she had asked her the question, it seeming to be leading up to something that was on her mind...although Lilian could have just be over thinking things.


Lilian dropped down from the windowsill and looked back over at Masumi, her asking with a slight tilt to her head, "Why do you ask?" In truth Lilian's classes that she had on a regular basis required no participation from the students, for the most part they are on a come as you please basis. So if there was something that Lilian needed to take care of she could simply skip them without any repercussions, which worked out in the way she prefers to do things.

Standing there, she brings her hands up to her chest and holds them there. "Do ya, I don't know.. Wanna do something?" She had practically spent the whole day with Lilian, but didn't want to just leave now. It didn't feel right after all that they just went through. Events that they could do together ran through her head. Usually, after school or practice, a walk would follow. It was a nice way to wind down for Masumi, no matter how the weather fared she would go. Snow? Jacket, scarf, and she would be fine. Though,she wouldn't blame Lilian if she had more important matters to attend to right now. As far as Masumi's day, it was over. She had accomplished more in this last hour then in 3 years. And figured that she could call it a day for now.Looking back over at Lilian, she turns her body more in her direction. Waiting for a response.

Dante




I laugh softly. "I figured it was. I consider you a friend too" he murmurs in response with a soft smile. He tilts his head at her question though. "Bullied? Not since I was young. When I was young I got bullied a lot... but then... well... I developed one hell of a left hook..." He smirks holding up his left arm as it changes into a Demon Arm.... "I stopped getting bullied after that. Getting hit with this moving at the speed of sound usually convinces people I'm not one to mess with" he laughed softly.

Alexander Salvatore


"Hideous... Flaunting his demonic nature like that.... Just be patient Alexander... that girl can't stay around him forever... and then you can kill him... It will be so easy... oh so easy... he will put the headphones on, and he won't hear me coming until it's too late... and then I'll have his head, my rep, and all the ladies I want..." Alexander Salvatore snickers to himself, nearly drooling at all the prospects that will open up when he completes his task.. As of right now, he's crouched behind a bush, out of sight to those in the tree, but not to others, who give him weird looks he seems not to notice. He's too preoccupied with staring through binoculars at his target...

Lilian replied rather quickly to Masumi's question, her cocking her head to the side ever so slightly, "Do something?" She double blinked up at her, wondering what Masumi had on her mind at the moment although she probably had no real idea. It was probably around 1 or 2 in the afternoon so there probably wasn't that many people out and about at the moment, other than the usual suspects hanging about. She figured that Masumi had something in mind and she didn't really want to go to the classes today anyway so she figured that it would be fun to simply hang around her for a bit longer today.


She simply added shortly after she posed her own question, "I would be okay with that, do you have something in mind?" In truth hanging around this girl was entertaining so far and Lilian felt a bit different when she was around, so in her mind this was pretty much a no brainer for her.

Smiling, Masumi started to walk backwards to the door, touching the handle behind her back. With a twist, the latch unlocks and the door opens, she stands in the doorway for a moment. "Come on, I wanna show you something." Slowly she backs out of the room waiting for Lilian to join her. Where they were going she knew, there was a place in the school that hardly anyone knew about. A meadow of sorts to the north of campus. She often went there on her hikes after school last year. It was deeper in the woods, so there were lots of tree's and other fauna. She had even strung up a hammock between two trees for napping when the weather was nice. The floor of the forest was covered in flowers, and a small creek ran through it."It's lunch time, lets go for a picnic." She concluded. They didn't have any food, or a blanket but it was the thought that counts. Or, at least that's how it was in her mind.

Lilian watched as Masumi walked over to the door and opened it, it seeming like she did indeed have something in mind. She said that she wanted to show Lilian something which caused her to double blink, her not really knowing what this something was. Regardless she moved over to her and responded with a nod, "Okay, lead on then." She had not been around the school that much, more times than naught she stayed in the library or the music room when not in class. The simple reason behind that being that she didn't really have a reason to wander around campus, it seeming pretty fruitless to just wander around.


She awaits Masumi to lead her to wherever she had in mind, Lilian a bit curious at the moment seeing as how this day had taken a turn that she did not expect in the slightest. The unknown was one thing that Lilian seeked, learning something that she previously did not know being one thing that she lived for...and at the moment this girl was the unknown.

Once Lilian started to approach, Masumi smiled and disappeared into the hallway. It would be nice to have someone to accompany her on a walk for once. Usually it was just herself. Walking down the hall, she turns her head to make sure Lilian was still on her tail. Once satisfied with the fact that she was, she turns her head back to the front and continues down the hall. The old wood planks of the floor squeaked under her feet as she walked. Sun beams shined in through the windows, casting shadows on the wall next to them as they walked.


Once at the stairs, she carefully jumps down the steps to the lobby of the school. Again, she took notice to the quiet and emptiness of the school. As everyone must have been in classes at the moment. Once at the entrance of the school, she opens the door and leans on it, keeping it open as she waits for Lilian to exit as well.

Lilian followed Masumi through the school and thought it odd how quiet she was at the moment, figuring that she was just lost in thought at the moment. That was one thing that Lilian seems to do often so such a thing isn't so hard for her to imagine. It seemed that they were taking the path through the older side of the school, it being the part that has been around longer...it pretty obvious just by how creaky the floor was. The way that Masumi was acting seemed rather gleeful, Lilian thinking that this maybe fun for her...or something similar.


With that racing through her mind she steps out of the entryway of the school and looks back over her shoulder at Masumi, the sun catching her hair as she does so, "Lead the Mi." Lilian used a nickname for Masumi, figuring that is what those close to each other do and in a way she figured that they were somewhat friends. At this moment they were near Alexander who was hiding in the bush quite poorly. Lilian didn't look in his direction though, her simply awaiting Masumi to lead on yet again.

Alexander Salvatore



​

Hearing voices nearby, Alexander turned his binocular gaze towards them. "Hello cuties...." He snickered, examining them up and down with the binoculars, failing to realize that he is not only in plain sight, but also not far away from them.... As in close enough they could hear his remarks... "Once I kill that demon Dante... girls here will absolutely fawn over me for saving them from that beast....." his lips curl back in a lecherous smirk as his mind roams, his binoculars still practically glued on the two girls in his distraction.

Gears looked around for a second before stomping his foot into the ground. A rush of what looked like electrical energy surged from his foor and then the floor just in-front of them jumped alive and changed into a large human sized statue of an owl with its head slightly cocked. The detail in it was amazing. Gears sat on the side of the fountain "Well! Theirs your bird" He was smiling like a child on Christmas.

The sunlight felt great on her skin as she stepped outside with Lilian. Holding her hand up to her face she blocks out the sun, but the glint off of Lilian's hair still semi-blinded her. How she made it shine so, she didn't know, but she did know it was beautiful. Chukling lightly at the new nickname she was given she nods as she steps down the stairs "Alright Lili. This way." Stating the nickname she had already given Lilian. It was delightful to be giving a nickname, she had never been given one and liked it quite a bit.


About to turn and start walking to the dorms to pick up a blanket and some sandwich material, she overhears something coming from a bush near-by. Her usual happy and energetic face fades into a more curious one as to what was lurking around. Moving to the right a little she can see a glint from a pair of binoculars. Her blood ran cold at the thought of being watched, and reaches inside her schoolbag and pulls out her pyromancy book, aiming it in the general direction of the glint. "CREEP!" She yells as she throws the book. Reaching back out, regretting the decision at throwing her most valuable possession.

(What time of day is to currently?? @Mediocritys Muse )


Charlotte stood up, waving bye to the sleeping cat, "Bye bye kitty.." The volume of her voice almost a whisper. Trailing behind Hide as he lead the way to the classrooms, she made sure to attach a very thin, soft, but durable wire to his wrist so she wouldn't "lose" him. Along with being a good buddy, Hide was especially good with cats, perhaps that one was his? "Is Kitty Hide's kitty?" Charlotte seemed to had already named the furry creature 'Kitty', something that only a... special puppet(or 5 year old) would do.
