"Neat. Sounds good."
anyone with a high enough sense motive may notice he is hiding some worry, and that this is a nice distraction for him.
"Ya. Little bit."
He tips the chair back up and the bottom breaks and dumps him out to the side. He doesn't seemed phased by it.
"You OK?"
He gets up and brushes himself off.
"Sim room, can I get a new one of those, please?"
The chair puffs into smoke and a new one appears.
Before she tells her story, Sil tries to explain his poor choice of words to his sister "Sorry, yes, exiled, kicked out, banished. That was an incredibly wrong of me. I am still a bit distracted by being able to hear and understand all the sounds of nature. It is not an excuse, but my brain is not fully here at the moment."
Silinrul stops mid stride as his sister tells of all that happened after her being exiled. When she is done, he hugs her tight "Jai I am so very sorry. I tried my best to prevent your exile, but at the time, I was just another hunter, albeit a rather good one. I argued on and off for about a week, earning several duels which resulted in my getting my ass whooped. I was probably on the verge of being kicked out myself when I first manifested my naturalistic magicks. They weren't much, but the She-B$+~$ found out, and decided I was an asset for her to exploit.
Anyways, I am very glad you are doing much better. We should find this Tyrrin eventually, as I would like to personally thank her for helping save my sister"
"I'm sorry too. I know I've been pretty hostile since you got here. It didn't help that you said hello by punching my boyfriend, you know," she added with a wry grin.
"I'll be happy to introduce you to Tyrrin, but do me a favor and let me talk to her first, give her a heads-up. It's been an eventful weekend and I'd rather not dump all of that on my best friend in public."
"So...the nature magic stuff isn't new? I thought you said it was...I mean, it's been what, almost three years since I was exiled?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm used to blowing up."
she doesn't seem to think the statement is abnormal.
"oh are you a firebird or something" he says, "uh hold up just a minute let me focus a bit just need to get it under control"
1d20+10
after a little less than a minute he opens his eyes and the air turns pleasantly warm and more or less stable "better?"
"Much. Thanks. I'm Asha. And yes, I'm a firebird. Not really able to conjure fire though so I'm kinda a bit of a disgrace to my house...and for other reasons. But it's okay. They're awful. I'd worry if they thought well of me," she said with a cheerful smile, though it was a bit forced and she seemed rather fidgety like she was worried about something.
"What do you know, me too."
He flops back into the new chair.
"Usually when I do it, it's because these two are arguing. Guess they're shutting up for a while. Love it when that happens." He says with a grin.
"That's probably just because you didn't have a body until recently. And if the older girls are right sometimes boys...er....and girls...Morrivan doesn't like boys...anyways, sometimes it takes them a very long time to figure these things out I guess. I don't know. I try not to pay attention to much when they start with the giggling. I think they're all pretty silly."
"It is silly, but it's nice to... Wait... and girls? That's allowed? I wonder if it's allowed to like both?" Zilla thinks to herself, her tone was non-serious but her expression showed a bit of serious thought.
Ignace shrugged. "I don't know. It's probably better to ask the older girls...they'd know. I just know that Elle likes boys and her friend Morrivan likes girls. And I think the other two like boys...but Ginni and Morrivan giggle a lot when they talk about girls and Ginni giggles just as much when they talk about boys, so maybe it's okay to like both. I don't like either. Not like that. It still seems weird and a little bit...icky."
"I uh" his voice briefly flashes with emotion and the air becomes briefly becomes much warmer before it cools down a bit"briefly dated a firebird who couldn't use fire magic either"
The storm cracks a bolt of lightning down... leaving a smoldering patch of grass...
The clouds tear open, pouring Gallons and gallons of water down from the iron sky
"Yes, I am. You are planning to include the others who are going in this collective? It would be easier to explain what you're going to find to the entire group."::Yes, I do intend to add everyone who is going into the same collective. It is much easier to manage keeping people healthy when we are linked in that way. To be sure, if it was simply a matter of healing, I would not even need to go with them. I will form it with you, then go and add them straight away.::
With a gentle pressure in her mind, Phaezeriel forms a link between Ryleh and himself.
::There. I will go and add the others, Lady. Is there anything else you might require before I leave?::
"No, thank you, Phaezeriel. I will explain what I found in my scrying once you link the others. And I will continue to try to find more information, though I understand the urgency of the matter. I know that Vai will not want to wait for more information, especially once she hears what I've already found."
"Well, sorta. For the first year and a half, I wasn't able to do much. I covertly healed some wounds, summoned animals and elementals to carry out minor tasks, purified some water after it was poisoned by the snakes, stuff like that. The, I started to have odd dreams, where different spirits of nature would talk to me, instruct me. I would awake, and be able to cast a new spell or shapechange into a different form."
He pauses, chatting with a rabbit that randomly hopped up to him, and wanted his attention. "This talking to animals and trees, even the elements themselves is new. I could occasionally do that before, if I cast a spell beforehand, but its constant now, since I bound the Heart of Agartha to my own."
"I uh" his voice briefly flashes with emotion and the air becomes briefly becomes much warmer before it cools down a bit"briefly dated a firebird who couldn't use fire magic either"
"Really? I didn't realize there were others like me....well, in all fairness I was locked in a tower for the last sixteen years so there's a lot I don't know....ummm....I take it that dating thing ended badly?"
"I personally wouldn't mind taking you, but I'm not the only one to be asked"
"Umm...I can radio James and ask for permission if you think we need it, but I'm pretty confident that James and my dad would both okay this," she said with a shrug. "Shouldn't be a problem."
"yeah, you could say that, I accidently mind controlled a lot of people, her among them... she .. understandably didn't take it well .... Her name was.. is, Raelle... Del Sol"
lang waits patently for Ephebe to invite Lang in.
When she does Lang stands in the doorway he bows to Midori and then to Ephebe.
Looking to Midori Midori, I am so sorry for the trouble I caused, I only wish I never said what i said. I ruined your tea party, and I ruined my friendship with Ignace, and maybe you also. Lang has a hard time looking Midori in the eyes. If I never am friends with Ignace again, at least I know you will help her and encourage her.
Looking to Ephebe Master Blackscales, you told me about this and I didn't listen. I am also sorry for that. I need help with what to do now.
I will understand if nobody goes to the ceremony now, I don't even know if I deserve it.
"yeah, you could say that, I accidently mind controlled a lot of people, her among them... she .. understandably didn't take it well .... Her name was.. is, Raelle... Del Sol"
"Never heard of her...I know Fieri Del Sol....well, I met her once anyways after I got here...but she has a different last name now....she was supposed to marry my cousin Embre. But she got abjured instead, which I think shows very good sense. I didn't know she had siblings....huh....that might explain some stuff I heard in line when we were being evacuated. Lots of people were talking about the del Sols....a few blamed them for all of us having to leave the sun...and someone named Ardiente....and I know my parents were making some kind of snide comments about the Phoebus house not being able to control their children....so they probably did something heroic or at least good....I tend to think well of people my parents hate."
"Wait....mind control? Seriously?" she asked looking at him suspiciously. "So...you have that under control now?"
She looked thoughtful. "If someone else were being mind-controlled do you know how to stop that from happening?" she asked hopefully. "Maybe you could help Tryko'Sam....if we can find him," she added looking worried again.
"I was referring mostly to Mels here hadn't really thought about Jimmy boy"
ahhh...I was the one that invited her
Mel moves to put her arms around Arthur and Raelle and she will try to include Igni in a group hug. you guys are great, but we really need to get going there are many more firebirds to help.
"yes I have them under a mental mountain of a mental block, it'd take a lot to undo those blocks, and they should last for quite some time... I could try, and should I fail I know who is better, albeit busier I can try to help him to help himself"

"then lets not tarry, Allonzy!"
Ehos had walked along with Jaiye and Silinrul, keeping mostly to himself, watching the gardens around them peacefully while Jaiye talked with her brother. When she had told her story though, Ehos had moved a little closer, squeezing her hand more tightly to show his support. Of course, he had broken away momentarily when the hugging had begun, not wanting to intrude into Jaiye's family business, standing a little awkwardly to the side until it was over. As the first few drops begin to fall out of the sky, Ehos looks up and smiles. Tyrrin wasn't the only Denulia that liked the rain.
He does quickly stow the datapad though, not wanting to lose /another/ one.
Asha jumped as the first drops of rain hit her and then looked dumbfounded at the sky as water poured down from it.
"Does this happen often?" she asked, starting to shiver.
Rena had continued her sensual play during the brief back and forth between Asha, pressing her body against David's own and working her hands in David's wings, fishing for a reaction and coming back somewhat dissapointed. If the tables had been turned - if David had been doing this to her - she would not even be able to think properly. Still, she continues unabated... at least until Asha mentions Tryko'Sam's name. At that mention... Rena almost seems to jerk away from David, as if reminded that her friend was in trouble. So lost had she been in the feeling of David's skin and feathers, and his strong muscles and frame...
"Vare left didn't he?" Rena says, a little bewildered. She... she really needed to try and control these feelings. But it felt so /good/. She needed to... do something. Help Tryko'Sam somehow...
Rena looks up at the cloudy sky as a drop strikes her right in the head. She looks up a little worriedly - she hated wet feathers after all - but seeing as how David wasn't immediately making a move away, neither is she.
It is worth noting that she is wearing a white top... it will probably be see-through if it gets overly wet.
"Are we still going to wait to see if Tryko'Sam comes back?" Rena asks a little uncertainly, now standing a couple feet away from David in an effort to control this body's urges.

Midori is actually the one who gets up to open the door for Lang, looking a little serious for his sake. She knew she had a little bit of the giggles... all of her nervous tension having left in the last few minutes.
"Lang-kun, you told the truth, and even if it might have been poorly timed, that is always an honourable thing to do." Midori says gently, still fighting the instinct to start giggling. Nothing of this situation was all that funny, but she felt... much less worried, and that's how the worried-energy wanted to come out. "I think Ignace-chan will forgive you Lang-kun, but you can't rush it, ne? I'm still coming with you to your ceremony, and I'm sure most of the rest of us will as well." Midori says soberly, standing next to her friend and then putting a gentle hand on his shoulder. "Just because you made one mistake does not mean we're all going to abandon you Lang-kun. Have more trust in your friends."
"I believe you dropped you tracking device, that allowed you past the wards to locat the head master here. It would be very dangerous if it fell into the wrong hands don't you think"
holding it out he waits the the elf scribe to réclame it.
If or when he dos Royston will say
"I would be interested to know the construction prosses for such a device, if you know and have the incantation to divulge such information that is"If taken back he will bow again then step back to his place once again waiting motionless but observant.
You may get the impression he's talking not just to you but others in the room and beyond.
"Ah... thank you." Mr. Quillblood takes the spyglass back gratefully, sliding it back inside the black cloak he was wearing. "Truth be told, this is not my work, but that of High Seer Denulia. It is said that only the High Seers can rival one another, so I suspect that is the reason why it was able to penetrate the wards on the school. Since it is keyed to the Honourable High Seer Antarius, I suspect she must have taken a divinatory focus from him during one of her visits to the school. A single hair, or something similar. Pardon me for saying so High Seer." The last phrase is directed to Ryo with a slight bow from the scribe.
As the rain starts Amber and Opel get up and giggling walk outside into it, thans out the look up into the sky not minding at the as it pelts down on them, then they see the party on the roof and giggling again lotstep to it, appearing in the mist of it. They seem some what trippy,
"uh yeah, I guess it's rain, you know weather.... oh wait tower locked up, I guess you might not... uh yeah when fire burns or water evaporates water goes into the air, when there is too much of it, it falls out...are you cold?"
Midori is actually the one who gets up to open the door for Lang, looking a little serious for his sake. She knew she had a little bit of the giggles... all of her nervous tension having left in the last few minutes.
"Lang-kun, you told the truth, and even if it might have been poorly timed, that is always an honourable thing to do." Midori says gently, still fighting the instinct to start giggling.

Midori says soberly, standing next to her friend and then putting a gentle hand on his shoulder. "Just because you made one mistake does not mean we're all going to abandon you Lang-kun. Have more trust in your friends."
lang looks over his robes for something wrong as he looks a bit confused at her attempting to be serious. but there is something about her smile that causes him to smile back.
not sure what to do Lang just gives her a hug and whispers a "Thank you" in her ear.
It seems her cheeriness is contagious
"uh yeah, I guess it's rain, you know weather.... oh wait tower locked up, I guess you might not... uh yeah when fire burns or water evaporates water goes into the air, when there is too much of it, it falls out...are you cold?"
"M-m-mayb-b-be a lit-t-t-tle," she said through chattering teeth, looking rather miserable as the pouring rain had already left her soaked through.
"oh here" casts flame sphere in between the three of them "better? er I suppose you want to go inside?"
Ignace shrugged. "I don't know. It's probably better to ask the older girls...they'd know. I just know that Elle likes boys and her friend Morrivan likes girls. And I think the other two like boys...but Ginni and Morrivan giggle a lot when they talk about girls and Ginni giggles just as much when they talk about boys, so maybe it's okay to like both. I don't like either. Not like that. It still seems weird and a little bit...icky."
She shrugs. "I don't know how icky it is. I just have been unable to have relationships with anyone, that I just want to see how it would be. Besides Hew is like family so that just sounds weird. Ether way this whole thing that happened I don't think Lang wanted to hurt your feelings or that he didn't want you as a friend, but if you want me to hate him, I will. We girls need to stick together." She nudges Ignace's shoulder hoping she doesn't want her to hate Lang. "Isn't that right Sara?"
lang looks over his robes for something wrong as he looks a bit confused at her attempting to be serious. but there is something about her smile that causes him to smile back.
not sure what to do Lang just gives her a hug and whispers a "Thank you" in her ear.

Midori finally cannot surpress the giggles any longer when Lang whispers ticklishly in her ear, and she bursts out into a fit of giggles, trying to hug Lang back but not really succeeding.
"oh here" casts flame sphere in between the three of them "better? er I suppose you want to go inside?"
You feel the spell falter... it appears after a short delay but only half as big as it sgiyld be...
"I. . . I told him that I like him... like like kind of like... I don't know if he feels the same... I think I messed everything up... it seemed like a good idea until I said it. You don't hate me too, do you?"
He still looks at the hedgehog, too despondent to look at you while he talks.
"Do I Hate you? Why would I. Gay, straight your still the same Tybs to me. Come on. Lets go get some lunch and get your mind off Dave. We can go talk about other boys if you like?" He teases hoping to get a smile.
"oh here" casts flame sphere in between the three of them "better? er I suppose you want to go inside?"
Asha huddles close to the flame sphere, putting her hands inside it.
"I cant leave yet...what if Tryko'Sam comes back? I don't know where else to look...he can teleport anywhere and someone is using magic to control him...." she said, biting her lip to keep from crying.
that's strange.. he looks at the fire
Rena's shirt is almost immediately soaked through, and she does not appear to be wearing anything underneath... David, Asha, Amber, and Opel can see through her top... to her perfectly shaped breasts. They are quite glorious. She doesn't seem to notice the show she's putting on though, and when Asha begins to shiver, Rena moves over and spreads a wing over Asha... though the firebird will have to bend down slightly, as Rena isn't tall enough to provide a decent umbrella if Asha stands up straight.
"Here, I don't mind the cold as much and I can protect you from the rain.. I'm staying here with you. Vare will think of something. He always does."
dave looks at her "uh tykro sam? this the guy you want me to see if I can fix? I'm not really good at divination, er finding people and stuff..."
She shrugs. "I don't know how icky it is. I just have been unable to have relationships with anyone, that I just want to see how it would be. Besides Hew is like family so that just sounds weird. Ether way this whole thing that happened I don't think Lang wanted to hurt your feelings or that he didn't want you as a friend, but if you want me to hate him, I will. We girls need to stick together." She nudges Ignace's shoulder hoping she doesn't want her to hate Lang. "Isn't that right Sara?"
"I don't know how I feel about Lang right now. I'm angry at him. He was my first friend and then he messed that all up and I don't know how to be around him now. It makes me feel all anxious and then the fire gets harder to control...I don't think you need to hate him. I just don't think I can be around him."
that's strange.. he looks at the fire
Nope
"I don't know how I feel about Lang right now. I'm angry at him. He was my first friend and then he messed that all up and I don't know how to be around him now. It makes me feel all anxious and then the fire gets harder to control...I don't think you need to hate him. I just don't think I can be around him."
"Just remember your my friend and I'll stick with you." She reminds her. "If you don't think you can be around him that's fine. Maybe some time you can go talk to him and return to being friends."
Lang just looks at her.
OK...what? is there something on my face? Lang tries to wipe his face like there is something hanging from his nose or in his hair.
Lang now tries to keep from laughing as well. but she can tell by his smile he is glad she is happy.
I don't know what I did or said, but she seems happy, maybe I'm not that messed up after all.
Lang just looks at her.
