Upon seeing Ginni veer off towards some odd newcomer, and then get teleported to the other side of the room, Ace leaps across tables, chairs, students and anything that else that gets in his way.
When Tamina and Dom suggest taking her to the infirmary, he says "I'm coming too. I've found out a little that might help them with her, but not enough, not yet"
"Well, anything helps," she said, glad that Ace was there after all. It had been hard to tell who was and wasn't there in such a big crowd of people, and she knew that Ginni tended to calm down better around familiar faces. "....does what Dom suggested about her hunger being like a vampire....does that sound like any of what you found?" [i]she asked, very worried now.
"Do you .. not do this as well?" She looks a bit surprised, continuing to eat her food some more. "How do you get through your day if you do not store your experiences in memory? Categorize, yes? Perhaps I merely stand out more, due to the forceful personality I have developed."
A bit of a shrug there, her hair falling about as it rests effortlessly on her shoulders, black waves of silken thickness.
Then a smile on her face as she says, "In fact, you are doing it right now, attempting to put me into one of your own boxes. So, I ask again, what is different between you and I in our manner that you bring this up? Is it the openness in which I move through the world, or how I am not like yourself?"
Another sushi, she does not appear to react to the use of his mask, while continuing to occasionally peer around, yet return her dark eyed attention towards his facial features. She most certainly doesn't appear to 'peek' at him while he stuffs food into his maw.
"Yes, I do... I am not saying that I do not, You seemed confused by what I meant when I said judge, I not only catagorize, I analize as well. You are already in a box, One that I constantly build around every person creature or thing that I encounter. I watch, listen and wait. I wait until action is required... and then act decisively to eliminate the threat or problem in the quickest manner neccisary."
Renkai's black hood rises and falls methodically almost unconciously, he doesnt seem to notice or care if you look or not... His plate is swiftly emptied
"Sorta yea. She's a soul vampire, or at least very much like one. I'm not entirely positive what that means, yet, but I am guessing that unlike a normal vampire who feeds on blood, she feeds on souls. I'm not sure what that means in regards to her always throwing up any soul she's consumed. Either she's grossly malnourished, or she retains a part of the soul, despite vomiting up the majority of it."
There's a nod or so, and then Anahita asks, "So, what were you asking me again at the beginning of your inquiry? I'm fairly sure I did not answer it as I did not grasp the full meaning of your question. Please, do ask it again. I feel much more prepared this time.. I think."
She looks to her food, eats another sushi, looks back up. A faint smile on her face.

"For the sake of simplicity, Do you ever do anything spontaniously? For instance..." turns to the side and spouts a short phrase and fires grow from the floor, stepping from these flames is a gorgeous woman with bat wings and pink skin two tiny horns sprout from her forehead and a long pointed tail hangs halfway to the floor
Perception check DC 30: you see his mask flicker to black
she curtsies there before him and asks in a sultry voice, "How may I serve you master?"
"please take my tray (our trays if ana is done)to the drop off zone right there and then return to your homeplane, you are not to interact with any person, creature, being or object except to do as I have commanded."
The succubus does as is ordered and then dissapears.
"Hmm. I wish I had a proper teacher for my bending if I did I may not be so ill-equipped to help. If things get to out of hand with er hunger it may be wise to find a way to give her a small piece of a soul. That direction could have dire-consequences. Since it gives an opening for this hunger to go out of control wanting more. I'm not sure if any of it will be the case however. I'm just peacing things together for folk tales. I not have the knowledge of tales my family does." He replied with a bit of a sad tone.
"To the best of my knowledge, Ginni has never eaten a soul. Anytime she's come close she's gone to the infirmary and they make her throw it up. So....maybe she's not a full soul vampire yet? If she's only partially a vampire...." She sighed, frustrated. "What we need is more information."
Dom steps forward positioning himself between Anahita and Dave. "Wow guys we're all friends here. why are we harshing each other like this and shouldn't we get Ginni to the infirmary to see if they can help her get control over herself?" He looks to Ginni with a sympathetic gaze.Smiling as Dom moved to interpose, Anahita seemed quite happier with the advent of someone gallant. She smiles and says, "Thank you, Dom. You are quite noble to seek peace and act in this manner."
With a quick glance at the retreating Vare, puzzled look on Anahita's face, she seems to ponder what he said and shrugs, apparently unclear one way or another.
She glances back towards David, Dom and Tamina, seeing what will happen next, with a quick glance over at the new person, Settro, then back to Ginni and Tybalt. With a slight frown, looking back to David, she waits for any response.
"actually, the spell was a hold monster spell, I was not sure a hold person spell would sufice, and not long, I'm afraid, at my level of power it will only last anouther miniute, I can reappily the spell before it runs out," "I could use a curse, and leave her frozen in that manor, won't be quite as effective, but it will last longer, and be harder to resist, and they are my specialty"
"Sorta yea. She's a soul vampire, or at least very much like one. I'm not entirely positive what that means, yet, but I am guessing that unlike a normal vampire who feeds on blood, she feeds on souls. I'm not sure what that means in regards to her always throwing up any soul she's consumed. Either she's grossly malnourished, or she retains a part of the soul, despite vomiting up the majority of it."
"wait soul vampire, like yang-shi? I thought she was part sucubus?"
Ace flashes Tamina one of his better smiles and bows slightly "That, my dear, happens to be my specialty. After we settle her into the infirmary, will you please look after her? I know the staff there will do their best, but I don't want her left alone. I am going to hit the library with a vengeance to try and uncover something far more useful than what I have found so far."
Ace flashes Tamina one of his better smiles and bows slightly "That, my dear, happens to be my specialty. After we settle her into the infirmary, will you please look after her? I know the staff there will do their best, but I don't want her left alone. I am going to hit the library with a vengeance to try and uncover something far more useful than what I have found so far."
"Of course I'll stay with her. She's my best friend. There's no way I'd just leave her. Good luck, Ace. I really hope that you can find out how we can help her."
The tray that Anahita has, has ample more goodies for her to eat on, so while the Conjuring spell is conducted, the following happens for Anahita.
First, she is mid-eat of her next sushi, and she watches Renkai say his short phrase and gesture, she doesn't appear too surprised at the succubus.
A blink or so later, she says, "So you are an arcane caster. Interesting. Isn't that a bit abusive of a creature to merely carry out your trash?"
She then eats the sushi, chews it and says, "I would not do so, unless I absolutely needed too, no. As for spontaneous, yes, but not with magic."
She smiles lightly at that and looks back to Renkai's mask, hiding his face, which means she's looking at his face, which is hidden by the mask.
"AH. THAT IS MOST ENLIGHTENING. I NEVER CONSIDERED THE POSSIBILITY OF USING TEATIME FOR PURPOSES OF APPLYING SOCIAL PRESSURE THROUGH INTIMIDATION."
"GENERALLY SPEAKING, I BELIEVE PRIESTS ARE QUITE FASCINATED WITH DEITIES. WHICH SEEMS TO MAKE THE DEITIES HAPPY AND KEEPS THEM BUSY AND MOSTLY QUIET. AND OF COURSE DEITIES. THEY FIND EACH OTHER ALMOST AS IMPORTANT AS THEY FIND THEMSELVES."
"I think you would find Ryleh most interesting indeed. So find a priest, huh? There's alot of those that follow deities. Perhaps one of them has knowledge of a soul-cursed dragon. Thank you for your time, Boss." he goes to leave, then stops.
"I was only reincarnated once, right? Why did you show me in the mirror?"
Lang brings Chara back sfe and sound to the lakeside where they first took off.
I hope that was exciting enough for you I know how everybody around tries to be so delicate with you but I say lets have some fun.
Lang bows to Chara and goes back to the blanket and gathers his gift.
Chara, Sun will play some games with you for a bit I want to go see your sister Ignace. do you think she will be in the home ec room like usual?
"I think I will stick around the infirmary, research makes my head hurt. Besides I have a lot of different healing abilities that could hasten her recovery." Dom smiles to them trying to make it look like he was joking.
"I am, are you?" Renkai questions slyly, "and it is a demon, they do much worse abuses on human-kind.... like torture... I think the creature taking out my trash is my little way of letting them know they can repent their evil ways..."
Renkais whole body resembles one giant grin, his languid stance and relaxed hands speak volumes and portray the grin under his blank featureless face-hugging mask
Seeing David following them, Ace stops "Get away from her, now!! Anybody who will just throw around a paralyzing spell is not going to be around my girl. Leave us or regret it!!"
settro simply watched this unfold.
Putting down her sushi, before she's about to eat another, Anahita says to Renkai, "Ah.. so you do judge then. I suspected as much. Evil is merely a part of the universe, just as darkness and light. I would call your actions arrogant, Renkai. Amusing, in a fashion, but .. dangerous. You seem to enjoy danger though, do you not? Your manner is almost flippant right now."
There's a smirk on her face, while she holds the sushi there, about to eat it, but does not just yet.
Looking over his face, then briefly down his figure, she looks back up and plops the sushi into her mouth, going back to her chewing.
"Do you enjoy danger, Renkai? Is that what you wish to share with me?"
She takes a moment to glance up at Settro when he speaks, furrowing her brow, then looks back to Renkai.
"I think I will stick around the infirmary, research makes my head hurt. Besides I have a lot of different healing abilities that could hasten her recovery." Dom smiles to them trying to make it look like he was joking.
Tamina smiles back. "Well I certainly wouldn't mind the company."
Seeing David following them, Ace stops "Get away from her, now!! Anybody who will just throw around a paralyzing spell is not going to be around my girl. Leave us or regret it!!"
"Ace, calm down! He was just trying to help! Okay, it was heavyhanded, but we can't let her eat someone's soul!" Tamina said, trying to interpose herself between the two boys before it turned into a real fight.
Seeing David following them, Ace stops "Get away from her, now!! Anybody who will just throw around a paralyzing spell is not going to be around my girl. Leave us or regret it!!"
dave seems frustrated, "five points, first, I was not the one who tried to grab her, two, I did so at the behest of her" waving to tamina "three, she'll thank me later, four I used expressly nonvoilent spells, ones that would not hurt her, but would work, it would have been soooo much easier to simply curse her till she could never move again" "and five, I'd like to see you try."
Lang brings Chara back sfe and sound to the lakeside where they first took off.
I hope that was exciting enough for you I know how everybody around tries to be so delicate with you but I say lets have some fun.
Lang bows to Chara and goes back to the blanket and gathers his gift.
Chara, Sun will play some games with you for a bit I want to go see your sister Ignace. do you think she will be in the home ec room like usual?
"Thank you so much, Lang! that was awesome! I wish I could fly like that with my own wings, but they're not strong enough....flying is the best!"
"Okay, Sun is fun to play with. Ignace will probably be in the home ec room. That's where she always stays. Good luck. She's gonna be grumpy with you."
Dom turning around to Dave and Ace. His face quite red now. "Ok that's it! Everybody helping with the girl keep walking. Everyone wanting to argue or complain go away!" After stating what he wanted Dom turns back around and keeps moving on to the infirmary.
Putting down her sushi, before she's about to eat another, Anahita says to Renkai, "Ah.. so you do judge then. I suspected as much. Evil is merely a part of the universe, just as darkness and light. I would call your actions arrogant, Renkai. Amusing, in a fashion, but .. dangerous. You seem to enjoy danger though, do you not? Your manner is almost flippant right now."

"Do you enjoy danger, Renkai? Is that what you wish to share with me?"
She takes a moment to glance up at Settro when he speaks, furrowing her brow, then looks back to Renkai.
"I already said that I judged people...and creatures." Renkai laughs, which is a deep laugh that rises and falls through a remarkable vocal range, then through his chuckling he regains control of himself... "what gave you that idea?" his left eyehole briefly dissapears and reappears (wink)
he throws the abyssal phase casually over his shoulder

"you seem interesting. you said i wore a mask? well. just how perceptive are you? what does this "mask" hide?" his tone is rather cheerful, and kept well in line, as to not be offensive. it probably is anyway.
bluff
"You mean how I kicked your butt in that duel? Yea, cept this time it'll be much worse. I know how to counter you now. Just walk away. Oh and threaten Ginni like that again, and you'll wish you're parents never Fu*#@d"
IDK but Treisdan is going toward the source of the shouting...
Tamina threw up her hands in disgust as she hurried after Dom and Ginni. "Boys!," she exclaimed in disgust. "I don't know what you and Raelle see in those two," she said to Ginni even though Ginni was still paralyzed and couldn't answer her.
...Nodding at what Tamina says, Anahita seems to understand after her question. She says, "Thank you."
...Looking calmly up at David, Anahita says, "I would like to point out that my question, was not a judgement, but a query for information- so the person right now, being judgemental, is yourself. Consider your own actions, David. At no time did I judge. I have often found in my travels that those who are quick to point out flaws in others, are they themselves the most guilty of the flaw. A sneaky tactic used to distract from their own failings, by the speaker. Consider that for a moment in this place of learning."
With a bit of a stern look to David,
A faint furrow of her expressive features, and Anahita sits there eating some more sushi.
dave rolls his eyes "semantics, if this were the only instance that statement would have been sufficent, let us break down the entiretity of what I said, starting with your distaste for masks and illusions, firstly illusion is noble art, secondly some people truely have things to hide, not because they desire to decieve others, but because they have little choice, I once met a person who disguised himself as human he was a charming fellow, kind as any you would ever meet, you want to know why he disguised himself, what he looked like in his true form, his true form was a skeleton, an obitu, a skeleton animated with positive energy, you want to know what most people's first reaction to a walking skeleton is, their first reaction is to flee or to kill it, there are many dragons at this verry school for example who likewise almost anywhere but here depend on maintaining a human facade or be hunted down like animals, but no, to you masks are only to decieve not for survival or for anything else" his voice raises and becomes more empasioned as he speeks, his hair begins to smoke, he closes his eyes and breathes heavily and the smoke dissapates "I appologize for my outburst, it has been a long day and I need to vent or meditate or something, at a lator date, if you are agreeable I would be happy to debate with you on the subject, but for now I feal it is best that I leave, have a nice day"
"Words are fairly meaningless, unless the actions of a person consistently match what is said. Would you not agree, Renkai?"
She looks between the two men there, both with 'masks' of one sort or another adding, "It is considered ill manners to speak in a language that may not be understood by other company, however, I can understand if you either wish to hide from or test the awareness of others."
Then, looking back up at Settro, she raises one eyebrow as if to suggest without speaking, 'Are you kidding me?'. "Please sir, we do not know one another- but you are mocking me. Your own words are false, spoken in a language of demons and other creatures. Why pretend what you are not? You remind me of others that were masks here, most likely for the same silly reasons- to protect, or keep a secret." She practically snorts at that.
Looking back at Renkai, she adds, "Your attempt at humor gives you credit, oh previously sullen one, but I cannot trust you, since you wear a mask. Perhaps in time, this may change." She picks up another sushi and eats it. There's a faint hint of a smile on her face though, it's not clear whether it's the food or the thoughts she has, given that she's masticating right at the moment.
"You mean how I kicked your butt in that duel? Yea, cept this time it'll be much worse. I know how to counter you now. Just walk away. Oh and threaten Ginni like that again, and you'll wish you're parents never Fu*#@d"
"you got lucky, and I know your tricks too, and I've learned a few myself, I didn't take you seriously, that was my downfall, I admit, were we to fight again it would be different, and it wasn't a threat, I said what I could have done, I do not wish to harm her nor to let here harm herself or others, so I acted in the most effective, and least harmful way I could think of," dave continues to walk with them to the infirmary, ignoring ace's attempts at intimidation.
Opens his eyes a frown already forming on his face.
"That was..."
He shakes his head
"Death thinks you could be some kind of minor deity that has been cursed or something." he says to Kezzin.
"You will need to ask those that follow deities, or research in the library for tales of your plight."
Then, looking back up at Settro, she raises one eyebrow as if to suggest without speaking, 'Are you kidding me?'. "Please sir, we do not know one another- but you are mocking me. Your own words are false, spoken in a language of demons and other creatures. Why pretend what you are not?

Anahita smirks initially when David brings out his initial points, and towards the end, she nods and says politely, "As you said, semantics, David. Deception, or other, a mask hides. That is the truth of it. It obscures. I welcome the chance to speak another time on this."
She returns her attention to the other two beings with their masks near her.
Lang brings Chara back sfe and sound to the lakeside where they first took off.
I hope that was exciting enough for you I know how everybody around tries to be so delicate with you but I say lets have some fun.
Lang bows to Chara and goes back to the blanket and gathers his gift.
Chara, Sun will play some games with you for a bit I want to go see your sister Ignace. do you think she will be in the home ec room like usual?
"Thank you so much, Lang! that was awesome! I wish I could fly like that with my own wings, but they're not strong enough....flying is the best!"
"Okay, Sun is fun to play with. Ignace will probably be in the home ec room. That's where she always stays. Good luck. She's gonna be grumpy with you."
I know, thats why I have to see her you remember that tradition? thats why I have to see her.
Lang takes the still unopened present to go see Ignace I wish I could tell her the truth but she is still to young to understand, maybe I'm to young to understand? either way. Ignace is too important to me now. I have to try and help her, to help me
Lang tries to keep from being to emotional as he heads to the Home Ec room he knows he is about to place Ignace outside of her comfort zone, but maybe that's what she needs.
as he walks his mind filled with the events of the past 2 days, Ignace's smile the giggle, and maybe even once he thought he saw her eyes light up when he came to see her early this morning.
Lang finally reaches the room he peeks in the window to see if she is there, takes a deep breath and knocks on the door.
As Johnny thinks about finding Sun Tybalt states "i haven't seen him but if you need I can blink to him."
Putting down her sushi, before she's about to eat another, Anahita says to Renkai, "Ah.. so you do judge then. I suspected as much. Evil is merely a part of the universe, just as darkness and light. I would call your actions arrogant, Renkai. Amusing, in a fashion, but .. dangerous. You seem to enjoy danger though, do you not? Your manner is almost flippant right now."

"oh ana, you wound me..."
Then, looking back up at Settro, she raises one eyebrow as if to suggest without speaking, 'Are you kidding me?'. "Please sir, we do not know one another- but you are mocking me.

"You picked perfectly. The food looks delicious....well, I could do without the carrots, but Tyrrin insists that vegetables are important so I try to eat a little of them with every meal," she admitted sheepishly, taking a bite of the steak. It tasted wonderful, even better than usual thanks to the company. The feel of his arm around her waist made her feel all bubbly and happy.
'I'm sure Tyrrin researched the dietary needs of lycans before making this suggestion?' he posed the question, a little unsure. Tyrrin researched everything, but the thought of a hyena eating carrots was a bit weird to him. He squeezed Jaiye a little closer.
"Tonight? Well....I was hoping maybe we could continue where we left off in the library...not actually in the library again....maybe somewhere more private," she said, blushing.
'Hmm.' Ehos displays, something of a twinkle in his eye. Clearly the idea appealed to him as well, as his fingers were gently tapping Jaiye's waist in a rhythmic manner, almost like an instrument. He really wished he could talk. Trying to be romantic with the datapad was... clunky at best. 'Even if Tyrrin rarely comes into the room, I feel as though my room might not be the best... do you share a room too?'
Johnny comes back looking for Dom just as it all hits the ...
The sound of the sewing machine stopped momentarily at the knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
"Ya know what, I've had about enough of this, ya sparkly little b*!&~. See ya!" With that, he takes ahold of Ginni's hand and teleports them both to the infirmary.
