"They always be talking bout what goes on in 'ere, I don't right put much stock by half of it, but tell me, what particular stories have you been 'earing, might be good for a right laugh"
"Yay."
She stands up and brushes her skirt off.
"We can do each others' hair all pretty."
Midori suddenly looks sharply at Renkai, and he can read an intense sense of violation from her - and can tell that she wants him to stop reading her thoughts immediately, something which she was about to vocalize when Zilla, Ignace and Sara all speak up and she looks away from him. She glances at her friend, and momentarily looks back at Renkai, glaring at the invasion of her privacy. A thought rises to the surface of her mind that says 'Get out.'
The little shinobi turns away harshly from her senpai, moving over to Ignace-chan, Sara-rin, and Zilla-chan, receiving the hug from her friend stoically for a moment. "Hello Zilla-chan. There's still something we have to show you Ignace-chan!" Midori says with slightly forced happiness.
"No, she was smaller. With a mushroom hat thing."
"I see. I'm not familiar with that person." Tyrrin says thoughtfully.
As the three of them enter the food line, possibly the best person that might've lined up behind them enters the cafeteria - Raelle del Sol. Unfortunately, one of her friends calls her from the side of the cafeteria, so she might not immediately come to line up. Still, Tyrrin bends down slightly to speak quietly to Pyry. "Do you see her Pyry? She's a firebird with dark hair, almost like yours."

Renkai dissappears in a blink
/to ginni/
"After the amazing evening, and then the talk with ...Ephebe? Time girl? Everything's gotten sour since. Literally-- but, damn it all, I can't tell if this is my normal response or not because I, honestly, cannot tell you who or how I a tend to react. I'm /pretty/ sure I'm not a jaded ass hat, though, I'm certainly feeling it."
Tryko'Sam said the words after Asha spoke, and it's clear he's not a happy person right now.
"Extremely sensitive to ...irritation, normal or not? Dunno. It's like I'm just wired to ...get angry."
Rena looks towards their friend with sympathy, still holding onto him and pressing into him, unsure how to help him feel better. She's stroking him gently if he doesn't shake her off or push her away. Apparently she's trying to make him feel better by physical sensations - her body, her hands. "I'm sorry, I don't know how to help Tryko'Sam. We're here for you. I know you've lost alot of memories.. and maybe getting them back wasn't all that helpful for you. But... I may have only know you for the past couple days, but you aren't quick to anger. You're compassionate and thoughtful and creative. You've even helped me in many ways. Not just last night either. You saw past my monstrous shape, and became my friend anyway. You're a good person." she says sincerely, still trying to make him feel better with nice sensations.
"Do you be thinking it be one of dem students? I never figured them for being that subtle"
"Not a problem, man. Kitty is my best friend and I'm not going to let anything bad happen to her if I can help it. And I should be around more now that I don't have to worry about protecting my friends from my Patron. Long story."
"Patron?" Repp asks curiously, standing to the side.
"What like a smoken crator or summit?"
"I am happy to see you too, Zilla," Ignace said, not even flinching away from the hug much.She smiled at Hew as well. "That went much better! You were able to do that so quickly!"
She looked warily at the older boy who was apologizing to Midori, but since Mrs Blackscales was here she thought she could handle it for a little bit. Although the room was getting a bit crowded.
"Umm...perhaps us girls should go get ready for our tea party? We don't want to run out of time before we have to leave to go to Lang's ceremony."
Zilla pulled back from the hug, a smile plastered across her face. "That's a great idea." She strutted over to Lang. "Thank you for being here Lang. I'm so happy that you all came." She continued looking to Sara then Grim. "Come on Sara lets go have our party!" Zilla grabs Sara's hand excitedly and drags her over to the other girls. "Where's Chara? We need to get her to come too."
As the three of them enter the food line, possibly the best person that might've lined up behind them enters the cafeteria - Raelle del Sol. Unfortunately, one of her friends calls her from the side of the cafeteria, so she might not immediately come to line up. Still, Tyrrin bends down slightly to speak quietly to Pyry. "Do you see her Pyry? She's a firebird with dark hair, almost like yours."
He tenses up, glancing quickly. Out of respect for Tyrrin than any need to see what the other firebird looks like.
"O-okay..."
** spoiler omitted **
Lang smiles acknowledging Zilla. glad to see back with us Zilla.
Lang keeps a wary eye on Renkai. he only briefly met him on the roof with Midori and Grim. but still he apologized. He seeks forgiveness and that was commendable.
Still keeping an eye on Kai, he then goes to Hew you alright? you need a drink or something? you did a really great job.
"A drink sounds like a good idea, Lang. How about we go to the luch room and grab one ofter here." He answers. He slowly stands up showing a little fatigue but not nearly enough to send him to the infirmary. "Thank you for the idea Ignance. It should help out in the future as well." He bows to her showing his respect.
Sara lets herself be pulled along.
"I don't know where she is. We can use the arrows to find her. I need to put my pretty dress on, still."
"After the amazing evening, and then the talk with ...Ephebe? Time girl? Everything's gotten sour since.

Tryko'Sam said the words after Asha spoke, and it's clear he's not a happy person right now.
"Extremely sensitive to ...irritation, normal or not? Dunno. It's like I'm just wired to ...get angry."
"You weren't like that last night. When everyone else was running around and angry and upset you stayed calm. If...if your memories brought up some bad feelings because they were painful....do you think the enchantment was amplifying that?"
"Maybe I'm wrong, but I think the way you were before was more you. I agree with Rena," she said stubbornly. She was trying to convince herself as much as him. She didn't want to believe that she'd been wrong about him.
Mel, still chatting with Arthur notice Raelle rushing in for some lunch.
Mel hadn't seen her since the attack, glad to see she is alright. As she rushes past, mel waves to get her attention, hey there Raelle, want to join us?
"Oh, hey, Mel....yeah, I'll be right there. I have to actually get some food first," she says trying to yawn and smile at the same time and not entirely succeeding at either endeavor.
"A drink sounds like a good idea, Lang. How about we go to the lunch room and grab one after here." He answers. He slowly stands up showing a little fatigue but not nearly enough to send him to the infirmary. "Thank you for the idea Ignace. It should help out in the future as well." He bows to her showing his respect.
She smiles. "I'm so glad. Zilla has been a good friend to me and I'm glad I was able to do at least some small thing to help the two of you."

Sara lets herself be pulled along.
"I don't know where she is. We can use the arrows to find her. I need to put my pretty dress on, still."
"She's probably in the upstairs playroom with Dara."
sounds great Hew. just a minute first
Lang heads to Ignace before she takes off with the other girls. Ignace wait before you go
once she stops Lang looks her in the eyes I...ahhh....I just wanted to say thanks again for deciding to go to the ceremony. It really means a lot to me. it wouldn't be the same without you. Lang looks like he wants to say more but is a little afraid.
Lang takes her hands as he talks. blushing a little and glancing around to see if midori is watching (hopefully not).
"I can sense you-- Greetings." She lifted a hand and did a small wave, indicating a hello in standard non-verbal terms. "If you are intentionally seeking to stay hidden, I apologize, but I could not resist the chase. If you are not intentionally seeking to hide, and are in need of assistance-- plus can hear me, if you move to the other side of the hallway, as a 'yes', I shall attempt to assist, or find someone that might aid us."
Help her? An offer she couldn't turn down, not after countless years stuck like this, unable to interact without anyone. She hurried quickly to the other side of the hallway and waited.
The spell reveals nothing new to Anahita, save for the auras carried by fellow students.
"Let's just say some people just don't understand the nature of an accident and I'm much safer away from where I used to be, so I may have to look into a way to patch up my bike, perhaps find a place to stay, far from that homicidal orc. Then again, if there's job openings, I could always use the gold."
"We can always use new teachers, but I must ask that should the 'homicidal orc' you just mentioned come looking for you that you leave school grounds until the matter is settled in order to keep the students safe."
"Cor, Where you 'ear about this anyway?"
"Where was this place?"
"Yeah. S'what a lot of em's ere for. They's dangerous and come here to learn control theyselves er ta hide out from the less understandin folks."
"Less understanding, yes I think I can relate to that, so now we are here guild where are you taking me"
sounds great Hew. just a minute first
Lang heads to Ignace before she takes off with the other girls. Ignace wait before you go

Lang takes her hands as he talks. blushing a little and glancing around to see if midori is watching (hopefully not).
"Is something wrong, Lang? Your face is getting all red," she asked innocently.
The snake returns with a metal box in a section of its coils while the rest of it propels itself.
"Sir, Hal's homing beacon approaches."
It reaches Hermes' feet and he reaches down and fumbles around until he gets the boxes edge and sets it half on the table.
The box begins to fall, unbeknownst to Hermes.

Stepping out of his room, Phaezeriel crouches and leaps into the air, his wings beating powerfully.
"Is something wrong, Lang? Your face is getting all red," she asked innocently.sounds great Hew. just a minute first
Lang heads to Ignace before she takes off with the other girls. Ignace wait before you go

Lang now gets even redder since she noticed.
i... ahhhhh.... ummmm.... no nothing is wrong. I just am glad you are going, and i....i... ahhh.... lang looks around again to see if others are watching.
He takes a step closer, he seems to be sweating a little, possibly the heat ignace is giving off.
Lang leans closer like he is telling her a secret
lang whispers to her i really like you
he then quickly kisses her cheek.
Lang then quickly tries to leave
Arthur looks to Mel at Raelle's departure "she a friend of yours?"
well, sort of, we were just getting to know each other better when the attack happened.
Through the use of his excellent ears and quick mind, Royston manages to hear a small rustle in some undergrowth near to the entrance of the school. His extra senses and magics, however, do not pick up on any trace of what caused the rustle. Perhaps just a woodland creature or similar, but it may bear investigating.
::"Guild do not react this is Rorston, something is by the gate of the school, if you have such powers or magics that could reveal what is there now would be the time to employ them"::
Royston waits a moment the manifests his Pistols and go's to investigate.
Ignace looks confused and upset and the air around her starts to rapidly heat up.
"That's not funny, Lang," she said, looking like she was about to cry.
There is a distinct heat shimmer in the air now.
::Hunh? Oh. Ya sure. Have fun.::
It is inspecting the label on the vodka.
Midori had turned away a bit jealously to talk to Zilla... or maybe Hew or Grim when Lang had closed the distance between himself and Ignace. There were too many conflicting emotions inside of her and she didn't know how to handle them, so the best thing she could do way face away from it - pretend it wasn't happening.
Raelle got into the lunch line, grabbing a tray and heading for the charred food section, and waited impatiently as Cindrus the normally wishy-washy was taking even longer than usual to make his selections.
He tenses up, glancing quickly. Out of respect for Tyrrin than any need to see what the other firebird looks like.
"O-okay..."
"You don't have to talk to her if you don't want to, but I thought you should know you aren't alone, there are other firebirds who are different too. Maybe not in the same way as you are. Let's get some lunch, alright?"
Sees Pyry tense up a bit, and recalls his reaction to Raelle's name earlier and happily pursues the change in subject. "So, what kind of food do you prefer, Pyry? What tastes good slightly frozen?"
Ace and Keme head out, making their way to the animal shelter. His normal staff has been transformed into the scimitar he prefers to wield in serious combat situations.
"So Keme, now that you have a new lease on life, what plans have you?" He says, a bit bluntly, though Keme can tell he's being genuinely curious.
Royston waits a moment the manifests his Pistols and go's to investigate.
Royston gets the faint scent of pine needles from somewhere in the copse of bushes ahead of him along the schoolgrounds... which is extremely strange, since this area is definitely /not/ coniferous.
Ignace looks confused and upset and the air around her starts to rapidly heat up.
"That's not funny, Lang," she said, looking like she was about to cry.
There is a distinct heat shimmer in the air now.
Lang doesnt get far before feeling the heat.
He turns around please ignace, dont get upset. I really just wanted you to know. I...never wanted to.... i thought that you ....
Lang goes to reach out, afraid to get closer
Please dont cry, i thought that it was a good thing... his voice trails off.
Lang looks like he is about to cry as well. am i that horrible?
"Where was this place?""Called Millerstone I bleve... been riding like the devil was after me... it's say... 4-5 day travel normly... maybe longer...
"Cor, ruddy unbelievable, you got any Majiks to see what coulda done sucha thing or you just get the 'ell out of dere"

"are you ok midori? You look kinda mad, did that older guy upset you?"
