"I will take that as a yes."
He opens his jacket and fiddles with something inside.
"It doesn't matter if you've got tails or capital T. A. I. L. Tails."
background music starts up, and he plays exactly the song everyone was expecting.
"... Alright, we done here?"
she pauses, then rolls her eyes."Yeah, whatever Nate."
"Ya. Sure."
He tosses the guitar behind him carelessly and it vanishes before it hits the ground.
He checks a watch.
"Still got a while before class. Anything else you want to do?"
"Right, I'll come see you afterwards, and tell you all about it, in the meantime, you concentration on feeling better." he says as he leaves following the arrows to vare's location,
"Don't die!"
He calls as Dave leaves.
He smiles after he's gone, happy that everything was mostly right with the world again.
Except it might end. In several ways. Just today.
But for now, things are ok... Very ok...
Dave laughs at this and calls back as he leaves hearing range, "I'd like to see them try, I'm basically indestructible!"
With Dave gone, Tybalt turns his attention to make sure Asha was gonna be Ok.
It would take a hell of a lot for her to not be Ok in the bubble, but it was still important to see her through.
"Ya. Sure."
He tosses the guitar behind him carelessly and it vanishes before it hits the ground.
He checks a watch.
"Still got a while before class. Anything else you want to do?"
"I donno. At this rate, I'll get bored of sitting here quick, so... Maybe walk somwhere."
"How bout the garden? Map said there was a lake."
He places his thumbs in his pocket with his hands hanging out.
"How bout the garden? Map said there was a lake."
He places his thumbs in his pocket with his hands hanging out.
".... Yeah, alright."
"Shall we, then?"
He places his right hand in a fist at the small of his back and waves to the door with his left hand open, leaning forward slightly into a short bow.
"Sure. Try and keep up, will you?"
she walks out the door at her normal pace. Her Noramal pace, being about double yours.
Rakki has to jog to keep up. Of course, there are tricks he could employ to keep up easily, but no need to waste magic on frivolous things.
Because he never does that...

Flourence eventually takes a seat (the farthest one from any people) somewhere out in the garden, quietly watching things happen.
The lunch at the Temple continues. and soon the meal is finished.
Sun arrives to escort Sara around the Temple but first drops off a a long object wrapped in cloth to Lang.
Sun escorts Sara to many areas of the temple showing her where the monks reside, the practice grounds where several young monks are practicing their martial arts forms.
After watching them for a bit Sara catches a lone man, he looks like a master based on how he is dressed. he practices his form on a stone balcony.
"So. Want to tell me more about yourself? I could tell you more about me. We could take turns. We could go for a swim if you want. I could dry us off after, no need to worry about wet fur smell. Any combination of those. Hm?"
He takes a seat next to her.
Sara insists that they hold hands.
She follows happily, watching the people go about their buisness.
"Who's that?"
She points at the one man with different clothes.
Sun looks at the man Sara is looking at, oh, that is Master Zhang Hong, He does not speak much and is said to be over 100 years old. rumor is, he was Master that taught Master Hito.
"So. Want to tell me more about yourself? I could tell you more about me. We could take turns. We could go for a swim if you want. I could dry us off after, no need to worry about wet fur smell. Any combination of those. Hm?"
He takes a seat next to her.
"Why? And I wouldn't have to worry about wet fur at all, if I didn't have them out.,
He sighs and looks up to the skies, staring at the clouds for a while.
Without looking down, he says, "... What would you do if you could get rid if them? Forever? Powers and all?..."
He offers a topic of conversation as he continues to stare at the sky.
"Wow. He's really old..."
She trails off, continuing to watch him practice.
He sighs and looks up to the skies, staring at the clouds for a while.
Without looking down, he says, "... What would you do if you could get rid if them? Forever? Powers and all?..."
He offers a topic of conversation as he continues to stare at the sky.
"Heck if I know. At this point, they've already done their damage."
"True..."
He slides off the bench and lays down on the ground.
"Have you ever really looked at the sky?..."
"True..."
He slides off the bench and lays down on the ground.
"Have you ever really looked at the sky?..."
"Yes, why?"
The old master stops his practice when he notices Sara watching.
he smiles and gets down on one knee, motioning for her to come over to him.
"No, I mean really looked at it."
He laces his fingers and places his hands on his belly.
"Like you don't even think about anything. Just sit and watch the clouds move and appear and dissappear."
Lang takes the package that Sun gave him and gets up from the table. everyone that will be joining me, please follow me I will show you where we will be going. there is a reception hall at the entrance to the ceremonial chambers. come on I'll show you
Lang motions for everyone to follow him.
Sara approaches him as instructed, bowing like Lang had taught her. She does not let go of Sun's hand, holding it tighter now than before.
"Hello."
"No, I mean really looked at it."
He laces his fingers and places his hands on his belly.
"Like you don't even think about anything. Just sit and watch the clouds move and appear and dissappear."
"Yes... Sorta. It got dull, after a while. There isn't much to be seen there."
Sun looks like he is in a little bit of pain at Sara's grip.
Lang takes the package that Sun gave him and gets up from the table. everyone that will be joining me, please follow me I will show you where we will be going. there is a reception hall at the entrance to the ceremonial chambers. come on I'll show you
Lang motions for everyone to follow him.
Tarka (and presumably Lois) follow after.
The master nods but says nothing. he motions for her to stand in front of him, attempting to get her to let go of Sun.
he speaks only though his actions. and his actions seem to tell that he wishes to teach Sara something. and is asking if she is willing to learn.
"Oh, contrare. There is always more to see. It goes on forever and ever."
He pats the grass next to him.
"Join me?"
He offers.
"Oh, contrare. There is always more to see. It goes on forever and ever."
He pats the grass next to him.
"Join me?"
He offers.
"It continues, and remains dull. It may not be the same, but it's close enough to still be dull. I've never been one to sit still. The most interesting thing to watch is people. And since I've got my tails out, sitting helps keep people from noticing."
"People interesting sometimes. They're so fixed, though. You can see a person and know what they're about. There's no room to see things for yourself."
Nonetheless, he sits back on the bench and looks around.

Nonetheless, he sits back on the bench and looks around.
"I'd rather see a truth then an abstraction."
she quietly looks up nonetheless.
"Sorry," She says to Sun as she let's go.
She watches the master carefully.
"Different Strokes..."
She may remember hearing a song of that description before.
He hums the tune of it under his breath as he looks at the people.
Florence seems to have run out of things to say, just kinda sitting around. It doesn't take long for her to get fidgety.
"Would you rather be doing something else?"
He looks to her.
"Would you rather be doing something else?"
He looks to her.
"Yes. But I'd doubt you'd approve. Besides, people might see me."
"What wouldn't I approve of?"
He's acquired a ukulele from somewhere.
"What wouldn't I approve of?"
He's acquired a ukulele from somewhere.
"I want to hunt."
"Would you even have time to? Class starts in like half an hour..."
He hits a sour chord on the ukulele when she speaks, surprised when she says one of the few things he wouldn't do just to prove her wrong about him.
"Would you even have time to? Class starts in like half an hour..."
He hits a sour chord on the ukulele when she speaks, surprised when she says one of the few things he wouldn't do just to prove her wrong about him.
"Yeah, I can do it quickly. It's easy. Honestly, half an hour is more then I need."
"If that's what you wanna do, I won't stop you, but it's really not my thing. I'd slow you down."
"If that's what you wanna do, I won't stop you, but it's really not my thing. I'd slow you down."
"I kinda guessed. I really shouldn't, though. I already ate, and there's no reason for me to hunt."
Ace heads off to his room, with his four trays of food, plus snacks for Squeaky. As he does, he casts a quick spell directed at Tyrrin "Ty, when you can, come meet me in my room. Gotta talk, kinda important, involves murder, Ace."
Pyry pauses, then hurries to the bubble again, casting a spell on himself quickly.
"Press on the bubble and I'll get fire magic going! I'm safe from it now!"
Asha nodded and pushed on the bubble with all of her might...and looked frustrated as she realized she had discorporated again and the bubble was the only thing keeping her from falling into the basement again. She squeezed her eyes shut and concentrated really hard on being solid, pushing her hands against the bubble as hard as she could. She stumbled as she finally fell out.
