The Rp~~ [Toulouse Academy of Refinement~Year 2]

Winnie sighed deeply, "I can't seem to have what I want...." She looked at Luna, "I'm sorry about Nichole, but...I don't think...Dimitri would leave her. " she told luna cryptically then chewed on her lower lip. "Thank you for the comfort, I'm going to go find my boyfriend now. " she stood and began walking out.


Axel watched her a bit and wondered what her reaction would be to the German novel she held. It was a WW2 romance novel that would probably be the least likely thing people would assume he'd be reading.

Luna sighed softly. "Its alright winnie. She'll just need some time.." standing and picked up her books going to her dorm humming. She wondered what her sister was doing now seeing the bed empty.
 
Alex smiled as she read several pages of the book then looked at him. "I didn't think you were into romance novels," she said with a smile as she sat it down. (Off to the movies tag me!)
 
"Daijoubu, Naota-kun." She smiled at him, waving it off as though it was nothing. Why did she see a brief flash of her Uncle? He hadn't ever done anything like that to her. No, now was not the time for that. Now she had to talk to Naota. "Hey so umm... a couple of papers dropped two weeks ago, do you want them back?" It wasn't like she needed them, and really she should have asked him first. Besides, the sooner she was more composed the better, she didn't like that look on his face. Her nightmares were not taking part in reality.
 
"Papers...OH THOSE!" He'd look on the papers on the table, but the look on his face was more surprise than happiness. "Didn't know you had a few...I got a big box of stuff like this from my parents, but I can't...really read them." He'd still been ashamed of it, I mean it's been so long, he's had time too study, but no language really appealed to him, even if he could speak multiple right now. Still, he'd been wondering what she'd been doing with them for so long. Sliding them under his door, or maybe in class, yet nothing. She might have been, studying him? "Uhm...would, you like the others too?"
 
"Oh, I'm sorry, it's just... there was some interesting information on it. If you want I could give you translations for any in Japanese?" She hadn't known for sure they were his, and now it finally occurred to her that she should have asked him first. Still, the information, and the law books... she already had several, so there wasn't any harm in giving them back. "I just... there was... kinda... this one," she took out the first paper, the one that had caught her attention, and the translation for it as well, "it's a birth certificate. Of yours."
 
"A...what?" Birth Certificate. He'd never heard of the word, then he'd take a look at it. It was definitely his name on the paper, yet that's all he understood. His name, then everything else was a blur, what could have happened? Why would someone need this, especially if he was from all the way in the jungle like he was. "You can keep it...I don't need it for anything. In fact, I don't need any of that stuff." Conflicted, he'd just sit down, wishing to forget about that piece of paper.
 
"Birth certificate, proof of the moment, location, and parents who gave birth to you, required for any official actions. Without this certificate you cannot A) do anything in a government building, B) apply for citizenship, C) get married, D) apply for an ID card, or E) Receive any inheritance from a dead person's will. But ok then." She shrugged, sitting down next to him. She rubbed her forehead then asked him, worry evident in her tone, "Are you ok?"
 
"I don't need or want any of that stuff...it's useless." He'd sigh, somehow feeling angry at himself for some odd reason like he was supposed to know something, the aching feeling in the back of his head telling him that should be important, but why would it. He'd go back too the jungle after he got all he needed from this school, or at least too his parents. There was no point in even thinking about other things. Yet the aching feeling didn't subside, not in the least. "I just...I know who I am already. I don't need anyone too tell me...so why do they want me to...it's stupid..So Stupid!" A slight rumble in the ground beneath them, though only slight enough too make a book or two fall from the shelves.
 
"Naota-kun, Naota-kun." Saphire, being Japanese, noticed the Earthquake, and since he'd just gotten upset... and they weren't near any fault lines, she figured it was him. So she moved over, taking his hands in hers, looking at him with calm, warm, sisterly eyes. "Naota-kun, calm down. Tell me what's wrong, I can help, I'm sure I can. So please." Anata wo tetsudai sasete kudasai, otouto. She didn't say it out loud, the way he'd reacted to the idea of them being related last time... it would only make things worse. "Naota, I'm right here."
 
"I don't need help...I-I know who I am." He didn't want too her too leave, not at all. In fact, a hug probably would have made him just stay calm & make him fall asleep right there. Her eyes, & her hand made him also want too jerk away & just run off, this sort of confliction, was she really important too him for some reason? "So...why waste it being worried..." Thankfully, the former, hugging her, burring his face in her stomach, not crying, but just wanting the comfort.
 
She blinked, surprised at the sudden change in position, but returned the hug anyway. Resisting the awkwardness she felt she simply patted his back, hoping that doing so would maybe calm him down. After all, that used to work for her, so long ago, why wouldn't it work for him, "Then you don't need to know." No, he didn't... because she would take care of it, make sure that their Uncle didn't get what was rightfully Naota's, if it turned out to be true. And then he would be cast out of the family, assets and everything else connected to the family frozen or wiped clean.... whatever happened she wouldn't stand for his actions. Uncle, for attempting to hide my brother, I will not let you win. And I'll do it without telling Naota about it... he doesn't deserve the pain.
 
"Sorry, I'm sorry." He'd back out of the hug, reluctantly, the wish too still be there apparent on his face. Once he'd finished here, everything would be alright. "Thanks for...idk. But more so, we need to get you something to eat, You look terrible & food always helps me get better." Him not releasing her hand, without taking the documents, he'd begin too try & bring her too where he was just once, the cafeteria.
 
"w-wow...." She.... his... the papers! The precious evidence of his relationship with her! THE BOOK. F-food was important, yes, and they'd probably still be there if she didn't grab them, but... but... it grated on her. Wait, he'd apologized, for something not his problem. That's not right, "Naota, it isn't your fault. I don't know what it is, but it's not your fault."
 
"Shush." He'd quiet her, bringing her into the cafeteria for something too eat. "No matter what was going on, your body's needs are more than anything else. You can't help anyone if your not ready to help even yourself." A nod, he'd tone out everything for now, letting go of her hand, but only doing so too get a plate & start piling it up with fruits & veggies. Protein isn't an issue right now, so that'd be less likely too help her, though these will at least get her body going again.
 
A soft sigh, nothing she could do about it now. She was here, in the cafeteria, and there was still food here? Maybe the staff liked Naota, or something, because she'd thought they would have hidden the food or something similar. Wow, that was annoying, she'd look up some other words in a thesaurus later. Japanese was so much more simple... no, stomach, stop growling.
 
"I have a big appetite...so they told me too come during breaks whenever I felt hungry. They'd just leave left over food from breakfast out for me." He'd then go off too a table, then offering a pear too her. "Here eat because..." She seemed off, this was a school for those who'd awakened too whatever gift they'd gotten, yet all she did was read books. It was strange, yet he felt as if it wasn't her fault. It was light correct, or something of the sort, "We're going to train." Outside, a beautiful Autumn day, with everything happening, bonding time with friends, with the only thing he knew how too truly do, train. "I want too get stronger...I feel like, you can help me somehow."
 
"I don't know how I could help, b-but... I suppose training would be nice. I... I certainly do need the practice..." She looked down, mumbling the next part, "I don't exactly have useful powers for combat, after all..." And honestly the only reason she was thinking of ways to do it was because she wanted to be able to defend herself. Their parents hadn't died peacefully after all, and... watching the other students? That weird thing two weeks ago? She wanted to be able to defend herself, and unfortunately she had to find a way to use her powers for it... Without realizing it she'd begun to eat the pear.
 
He'd take a few banana's from the tray along with a pomegranate. He'd not really found the use for, well, not fighting. Of course he could build shotty earth buildings, but practical problems like homework or just even making someone happy, that'd be difficult for him. "We'll fill up first, then you can tell me about your Gift outside."
 
"S-sure..." She grabbed another bit of food, chewing calmly but quickly, feeling like she's gotten more energy than before, if only because she now had something in her stomach. Which meant, of course, that she had forgotten to eat again.... how many times was that this week? Two, three? Nevermind, that's not what was important.
 
A nod. "Oh right." The pits in his pockets, only found out from actually eating more fruit. After he'd finish the Banana's, he'd take out the pits, crush them as much as he could, & shoot them into the trashcan, wishing to make a game of it. He'd more or less shoot them all in before heading back too breaking open the Pomegranate & instead of eating it the traditional way, begins too squeeze them together in order to make a juice, struggling to do so.
 
Saphire giggled slightly, it was kinda... what was he doing? Trying to make juice? That's kinda funny, but not like she could do anything with it. Nope, in fact... she... couldn't even figure out why. Another fruit, how many was that? Three... no, four. "What are you doing, Naota-kun?" Some kind of game, or something? Actually, how much were they going to eat...?
 
"I don't know. I saw it on a big screen once, that & some guys kicking a ball around, but I liked this." He'd give a smile before finishing off the juice, & throwing it away as well, it was more him finishing off all the fruit than her, but still he'd stand up ready to go when she is. "I just like to stay active...might be a bad habit of mine."
 
"I don't think it's particularly bad, but... maybe not good." She stood up as well, finishing off her last fruit and throwing it away. "I-I mean... too much and you won't be able to keep up with school. B-by the way, I... I could teach you to read, if you wanted. Japanese, whatever you want... If I know it." Since he would need to be able to read in any regular world thing. Not that she knew of any, but still... learning was important. "So, outside, right? Anywhere in particular?"
