"Ya. I miss her though. Lang let me say goodbye but it still hurts in my heart." She replies keeping a brave face on.
They arrive at her room and she reaches up to open the doorknob which is just below her eye level. She opens the door and walks in. She goes down to her hands and knees to reach under her bed and pull out a small blackwood box.
"These are very special things I brought from home. You have to pinkie promise not to tell people before I can show you." She says with a very serious tone.
"Maybe. I'm not sure yet. The wounds are still pretty fresh. When I found out you had betrayed me with another woman my heart shattered. And I think that what was between us broke too. But I think that if we want to we have a chance to build something better, that can last for longer. If you cheat on me again, I'm done. I can't go through this again. But I'm willing to give us another chance if you are."
"Um...since we're putting all the cards on the table here I should probably tell you that I kissed Ana. It wasn't sexual. It was...kind of a er...kissing lesson. Girl nearly got herself into trouble and needed some er...emergency sex ed. And I don't know about you but I do not have the vocabulary to teach kissing by talking about it. Anyways....I won't say there wasn't the slightest bit of petty revenge involved. I'm not perfect either. But it wasn't romantic in nature. And I'd rather you didn't find out about it later and think I was hiding something from you."
'I do want another chance - please. I want to... I want to make you as happy as you made me. Let's start again, let's build the better that you talked about. I want to know you. Not just your body.... as lovely as the latter is.' Is his initial response, before Jaiye elaborates on her interaction with Anahita.
'Wait. You and Anahita kissed? And I missed it?!' he /tries/ his hand at a joke, a shaky, uncertain smile on his face. 'There was more that happened this morning... I think I died for a bit. But since all the cards are on the table, as you said. I tried to fight a Marilith with a wooden plank. I chased Phaezeriel into the Abyss. What else... apparently there was some kind of demon mark on me afterwards, that flared disappeared when... when you met me in the hall. And... um. The girl... her father has been murdered and her shop burned down. Phaeze and I were trying to figure out what the hell happened when I got Anahita's spell.'
There in the infirmary Hew lay, while tears roll off Zilla's cheeks. Doctor's a nurses scurry about running test and add ministering treatments hoping to create a reaction from Hew unconscious body.
A nurse running the nanites calls to a doctor over seeing Hew. "Doctor his vitals are low but stable. I had the nanites run a diagnostic of his cognitive electrical pulses. It seems they are also low. It's as if his mind is not there anymore. His body still lives but there is no mental responses to any stimuli. I don't think there is anything more we can do with out a phycic."
The doctor looks over the computers read out before responding. "We'll contact Miss Blackscale then. She will know who the most appropriate psychic will be to deal with this situation is." He walks away from the the student and nurse. The nurse looks over to the weeping girl. "He'll be fine his vitals although low are stable." She strokes Zilla's hair try to comfort her in this terrible situation.

Lang looks up from his bed. at first he had no idea who it was then once the medical staff moved aside Lang realized who it was.
Lang gets up and goes to Hew's side. and takes a look. Placing his hand on his forehead. Hew? is your spirit with us? lang concentrates on him unless interuppted.

Yes Lang, and Ignace are there also
"Also, remember, Flying slow makes it harder."
"I will." Spreading his winga, Gareth flaps hard and fast to get into the air. "Yes! I'm flying!"
Grim's eyes glow "hew! What's wrong with hew!"
"Nice. Now, to get up higher, look for places with hot air. They take you right up."
A Girl, standing a little over 4ft, after hearing Lang and Grim rushes to them. "Hew collapsed while making me bigger. I tried to get him to stop and rest but he wanted to continue."
The nurse turns to the two boys. "I guess you are friends of his. He collapsed in the sim rooms. Currently we have some people looking in to what he was doing but Zilla tells us he was helping her. He probably of exerted himself. So he should be fine after a while." The nurse tries telling them to calm them down, but she has no proof of this being the case.
"That is your choice, naturally." Anahita says with a smile and kisses him again on the lips, equally brief and then brings a hand up to caress his chin.
"Your hair returns quickly..." A light kiss on the jaw, just above his chin, then followed up towards the neck before pulling back.
"So, you were upset? I apologize. I sought to find my calm before returning here in the forest. I ran into Jaiye with her state due to Ehos' actions. I'd prefer you not stop doing your noble task of teaching magic, Professor-- though, I feel this is a challenge we can over come with patience, or resolving the task. We should find a place to discuss it further. What say you?" With that said, while pressed against him, stands taller on her tiptoes, to kiss him once more, then pulls away with a teasing grin.
"Consider it a test of resolve, on both our parts, yes? I am .. also, practicing my ability to taunt-- or, tease? Tease you." Then there's more of a grin before it fades off her expressive face.
She's still dressed in that desert clothing since day one, looking clean and new as the...
"I can shave again if you'd like. I simply have not had time this morning to do so. I... slept in the forest, hoping you would return, that I might apologize." He says, his hands briefly feeling for - as a blind man - and then stroking, Anahita's long hair. Running his hands through it, smiling. "I... expressed myself passionately - angrily - to the Headmaster regarding his intrusion last night. He said that as long as I prove to him that I am simply... using you for my own pleasure, and we are discreet, he will not interfere again." he finishes with something of a... passive look. "I do not wish to stop teaching, truly. Perhaps it is foolish of me to give up such an opportunity to shape young minds so easily." he says again, with no preamble, though if Anahita's memory serves her - he is obviously speaking of his willingness to accept demotion in order to be with her.
He continues to run his hands through her luxurious hair, enjoying the feeling of it greatly. "Even in the Dream, your beauty is radiant. But I am... willing to test my resolve, with you."
"M-maybe you should get a psion and put some more like psychic energy back in his head that is how midori's body was made right?"
Gareth finds the updrafts with ease and soon is gliding several hundred feet in the air.
"This feels great..."
"Ya. I miss her though. Lang let me say goodbye but it still hurts in my heart." She replies keeping a brave face on.
They arrive at her room and she reaches up to open the doorknob which is just below her eye level. She opens the door and walks in. She goes down to her hands and knees to reach under her bed and pull out a small blackwood box.
"These are very special things I brought from home. You have to pinkie promise not to tell people before I can show you." She says with a very serious tone.
"... It hurts in your heart because it matters, Sara-chan. It may never stop hurting, and if it doesn't - that means she's always with you." surprising words from an eleven-year old. Perhaps she's experienced death before... perhaps several times.
When Sara brings forth the box, Midori sits down in seiza position opposite her. "Ano... Sara-chan.. what's a pinkie promise?"
She nods without saying anything. The feeling of hurt goes away if she stays busy and takes her mind off of it. At least it did with Mama.
"A pinkie promise is a very special promise that you can't ever break no matter what. We put them together and say we promise and then we never ever break the promise."
She holds her hand put with pinkie forward.
"Do you promise?"
She speaks of this as if it is the most important thing in the world.
"And so is this."
vriskra hugs you on the back of the neck, and looks on to your flight.
"You humans really don't know just how awesome you are."
"Hai. I promise, Sara-chan." she says somberly, mirroring Sara's action with the pinky forward, clasping them together.
Deathwatch shows that he is alive. Langs astral projection doesn't show signs of him being out of his body.
A Girl, standing a little over 4ft, after hearing Lang and Grim rushes to them. "Hew collapsed while making me bigger. I tried to get him to stop and rest but he wanted to continue."

He probably of exerted himself. So he should be fine after a while." The nurse tries telling them to calm them down, but she has no proof of this being the case.
Lang sensing that Hew is not spirit walking, releases him and backs away.
enough pain today, enough death, no more... Lang turns and looks at all of his friends. NO MORE!
Lang goes to find Ephebe.
"M-maybe you should get a psion and put some more like psychic energy back in his head that is how midori's body was made right?"
The nurse smiles to grim. "You maybe correct with that assumption and we are currently contacting a psychic to do what they can. Perhaps if one of you have the gift of psyonics."
"N-no Er maybe I don't know." He turns to zillia "you're pretty much made of psychic stuff right?"

"Lang, wait! There are easier ways to summon help from here, and I'd rather not have you wandering off considering that you have a lot of important things to say and there will be people wanting their questions answered shortly."

Lang goes to find Ephebe.
Lang stops I...feel so helpless right now, I hate seeing suffering, seeing pain. He goes to take a seat his head in his hands. This is so much all at once.
"N-no Er maybe I don't know." He turns to zillia "you're pretty much made of psychic stuff right?"
Zilla takes a step to race after Lang but stops not really knowing what to do. She looks at Grim confused by why he's asking. "My bodies made of ectoplasm. I think hew told me that is created and shaped with psychic energy but isn't made of psychic energy." she thinks for a second. "Do you think if I let my body fade away he would wake up?"
'I do want another chance - please. I want to... I want to make you as happy as you made me. Let's start again, let's build the better that you talked about. I want to know you. Not just your body.... as lovely as the latter is.' Is his initial response, before Jaiye elaborates on her interaction with Anahita.'Wait. You and Anahita kissed?

The girl... her father has been murdered and her shop burned down. Phaeze and I were trying to figure out what the hell happened when I got Anahita's spell.'
Jaiye just stared at him for a moment and then he had Jaiye in his lap hugging him tightly. "You idiot!" she scolded. "What were you thinking? With a wooden plank? Don't just try and throw your life away like that....I don't think I could bear it," she said her voice trailing off as she tried to fight back tears. The panic she felt at the thought of him being gone forever was enough of a reinforcement for now that she was doing the right thing in spite of the pain from today in giving things another chance with him. She still loved him too much to just walk away.
"I don't know, maybe, but you know him, wont he just try again if you do that? I think we should get a psion in here or something, if that doesn't work we'll try that next, sound good?"
"Lang, wait! There are easier ways to summon help from here, and I'd rather not have you wandering off considering that you have a lot of important things to say and there will be people wanting their questions answered shortly."
Lang sensing that Hew is not spirit walking, releases him and backs away.enough pain today, enough death, no more... Lang turns and looks at all of his friends. NO MORE!

Lang stops I...feel so helpless right now, I hate seeing suffering, seeing pain. He goes to take a seat his head in his hands. This is so much all at once.
"I know, but you don't have to handle things all by yourself. Let us help you. To start I'm going to talk to the nurse about who might be available and we'll get someone here who can help Hew. But I need you to stay here."
She shakes and then unclasps their pinkies. "OK now I can show you." She lifts the lid of the box inside is an array of simple objects. A marble, some red string, a butterfly cocoon, a silk patch and some buttons. She lifts one button in particular out of the box and shows it to Midori. "Mama gave me this one before she left."
She speaks about her mother 'leaving' in the same tone about her grandmother 'leaving.'
The button is small but bigger than Cariban's other eye and made of the same kind of wood as the box is. It depicts a tree and it's roots connecting to the outer rim of it like wheel spokes. The face is not filled in, light shines through the holes between branches and roots as she holds it up. A raised part with a hole sticks out on the back for thread to be put through.
Jaiye just stared at him for a moment and then he had Jaiye in his lap hugging him tightly. "You idiot!" she scolded. "What were you thinking? With a wooden plank? Don't just try and throw your life away like that....I don't think I could bear it," she said her voice trailing off as she tried to fight back tears. The panic she felt at the thought of him being gone forever was enough of a reinforcement for now that she was doing the right thing in spite of the pain from today in giving things another chance with him. She still loved him too much to just walk away.
Ehos is taken completely aback when Jaiye jumps into his lap, but his arms instictively go around her, pulling her closer. He sees the tears start to flow and does the only thing he can think of - seeing how the datapad is in a hand which has wrapped around her: kiss away the tears.
His silence is almost painful, but he holds her tight. How could he have ever done what he did? How could he have hurt her? He had to be better than that. He had to be better than this, if only for her sake.
"I know, but you don't have to handle things all by yourself. Let us help you. To start I'm going to talk to the nurse about who might be available and we'll get someone here who can help Hew. But I need you to stay here."
Lang nods in agreement.
He is clearly being overwhelmed by everything that happened today.
Lang looks up Grim, please, can you come over here?
Grim, Thanks you for everything, i was given a lot of information from Voltair today and then the fight in the temple, there is so much I witnessed today. I need your strength by my side through all of this.
Lang does not go into detail much about what he was shown but it clearly was very disturbing to him
"For now lets find something not related to demons to do. What do you say?" He asks hoping to salvage the rest of the day.
"At least it seems we can understand each others places. It seems that would be the hardest thing about arguments." He pauses for a second before continuing. "If you feel that meeting this... demon shall calm my emotions toward there kind. I will meet with them, but I won't be able to let my guard down around them."
"As long as you're not attacking students, I'm content to let things go. Agree to disagree and all that. It's not like we're always going to see eye to eye on everything...though I do foresee a few stimulating debates in the future," she said with a twinkle of mischief in her eyes.
"Hmm....maybe if we head a bit further out from the building we'll run into less students as we walk...."
"I don't know, maybe, but you know him, wont he just try again if you do that? I think we should get a psion in here or something, if that doesn't work we'll try that next, sound good?"
Zilla simply nods in agreement. Still with tears rolling down her cheeks.
Grim goes over to zillia and, if she allows it, gives her a hug, patting her on the back
When Lang calls him over he goes and after hearing what was said, hugs him as well.... briefly so as not to be unmanly.
"I can shave again if you'd like. I simply have not had time this morning to do so. I... slept in the forest, hoping you would return, that I might apologize." He says, his hands briefly feeling for - as a blind man - and then stroking, Anahita's long hair. Running his hands through it, smiling. "I... expressed myself passionately - angrily - to the Headmaster regarding his intrusion last night. He said that as long as I prove to him that I am simply... using you for my own pleasure, and we are discreet, he will not interfere again." he finishes with something of a... passive look.

Perhaps it is foolish of me to give up such an opportunity to shape young minds so easily." he says again, with no preamble, though if Anahita's memory serves her - he is obviously speaking of his willingness to accept demotion in order to be with her.
He continues to run his hands through her luxurious hair, enjoying the feeling of it greatly. "Even in the Dream, your beauty is radiant. But I am... willing to test my resolve, with you."
Pressing up against Vare while murmuring happy sounds, Anahita clearly enjoying the hair play.
"I fear we are talking too much-- but, I do need practice in that. I'm easily distracted. Perhaps too much-- the compulsion to learn, it seems, is strong. Mingled in with /this/." That said, she steps back and smiles up at him, arousal on her features and the breath she takes.
Then she pauses for a moment and looks at him, gone are the aroused features and such.
"Did you .. err, in speaking, Vare? Or did I hear you correctly? 'As long as I prove to him that I simply ... using you for my own pleasure? If those ... are your desires, I wish to confirm them."
There's a mixed expression on her face when she repeats that, a combination of confusion, plus, perhaps the pre-stage to anger, yet not.
Asch grits his teeth as his eyes flash red. He clenched his fists so tightly small droplets of blood splatter to the ground. After a moment his body seems to relax and he relays the information to Ace.
"As long as you're not attacking students, I'm content to let things go. Agree to disagree and all that. It's not like we're always going to see eye to eye on everything...though I do foresee a few stimulating debates in the future," she said with a twinkle of mischief in her eyes.
"Hmm....maybe if we head a bit further out from the building we'll run into less students as we walk...."
"I do have more self control that to out right attack a student." Slowly he takes her hand. "And what's a relationship with out a few debates." He responds with a mischievous smirk." Turning to walk with her away from the school grounds. "I think I like the idea of being alone with you."
Ephebe turned to Midori's parents. "I do apologize for the interruptions. One of the hazards of running a school, there are always crises to deal with.""Not at all, Blackscales-sama. I am glad you take such care of your students. It gives us peace of mind in knowing that you will take such care of our daughter as well." Yuki answers gracefully. "I don't believe we have any more questions. Is there anything we can tell you about our daughter that will help you?"
"Well, it would be helpful to know about any special interests she might have or holidays that you observe, things like that. We try to do as many little things as possible to make our students feel more at home, and making sure that we can incorporate some of the familiar things from home really does help. Especially for the younger students. Being at a boarding school can be very difficult for them at times."
"Ah, excuse me for a moment again. Yes, what is it?....Again?....And Phaezeriel isn't there presently?....Okay, call in Miss Zamarosok, she's especially good with problems of the mind. Tell her I'm available for consultation on this case....Yes, thank you and keep me informed."
"Again, my apologies. I have my personal comm channel set to telepathy so student information doesn't get broadcast to anyone overhearing. I may be interrupted again shortly as one of my students is in the infirmary."
She shakes and then unclasps their pinkies. "OK now I can show you." She lifts the lid of the box inside is an array of simple objects. A marble, some red string, a butterfly cocoon, a silk patch and some buttons. She lifts one button in particular out of the box and shows it to Midori. "Mama gave me this one before she left."

The face is not filled in, light shines through the holes between branches and roots as she holds it up. A raised part with a hole sticks out on the back for thread to be put through.
"And you are going to use that for his eye? Your bear must be very important to you. It's very beautiful, Sara-chan." Midori intones quietly. "Do you need me to help you sew it?"
::Oh wow.. yeah, I'm adding extra to this. Hair grows back after all... and her's looking like a rotting pumpkin.::
She giggled. ::It so does!::
Pressing up against Vare while murmuring happy sounds, Anahita clearly enjoying the hair play.
"I fear we are talking too much-- but, I do need practice in that. I'm easily distracted. Perhaps too much-- the compulsion to learn, it seems, is strong. Mingled in with /this/." That said, she steps back and smiles up at him, arousal on her features and the breath she takes.

There's a mixed expression on her face when she repeats that, a combination of confusion, plus, perhaps the pre-stage to anger, yet not.
"Oh..." Vare looks slightly horrified that he had missed such a key word. He shakes his head almost desperately. "Dear gods no. I apologize - I did mispeak. A key word - I meant the negation of that sentence: that I do /not/ intend to use you only for my pleasure. The former is what the Headmaster feared... my apologies."
He smiles though, withdrawing his hands from her vertable blanket of hair. "Did... you enjoy that? My hands in your hair?"
"Again, my apologies. I have my personal comm channel set to telepathy so student information doesn't get broadcast to anyone overhearing. I may be interrupted again shortly as one of my students is in the infirmary."
"Do not allow us to hold you from your students - especially if one is injured. We are patient. Please. See to them." Koizumi says graciously.
"I do have more self control that to out right attack a student." Slowly he takes her hand. "And what's a relationship with out a few debates." He responds with a mischievous smirk." Turning to walk with her away from the school grounds. "I think I like the idea of being alone with you."
She blushed and smiled. "I do believe you are getting the hang of this flirting thing," she teased as they started walking towards the wooded area near the edge of the school grounds.
"Do not allow us to hold you from your students - especially if one is injured. We are patient. Please. See to them." Koizumi says graciously.
"Again, my apologies. I have my personal comm channel set to telepathy so student information doesn't get broadcast to anyone overhearing. I may be interrupted again shortly as one of my students is in the infirmary."
"It's not an injury per se. He's overextended himself again. Miss Zamarosok is better with treating these cases than I am, but she may have questions for me since I've treated him before. If I do need to leave I would not hesitate to do so. Especially in an urgent situation regarding a student's health. But I am confident that the best person currently available for the job is taking care of it."
"Oh..." Vare looks slightly horrified that he had missed such a key word. He shakes his head almost desperately. "Dear gods no. I apologize - I did mispeak. A key word - I meant the negation of that sentence: that I do /not/ intend to use you only for my pleasure. The former is what the Headmaster feared... my apologies."
He smiles though, withdrawing his hands from her vertable blanket of hair. "Did... you enjoy that? My hands in your hair?"
Anahita nods a few times and considers Vare for a few moments, a mixture of thoughts on her expressive face.
For the most part, though, she's completely ignoring the where or who is near the two while standing outside the observatory.
"What are we to do now? I am anxious -- yet, uncertain." She gives no reaction to the initial question and response just now, at least, not on this plane of existence.
"Excuse me, Ryuzo, but it seems that I need to go to the infirmary. One of the students in Ephebe's class need a psionic healer. I'll be back as soon as I can," she said apologetically before teleporting to the infirmary.
"Where is the patient? Er, the one you asked for help with? His name is Hew Ward."
"He is important. He teaches me magic like Mama and Grama did. Today he taught me this."
She moves her hands and speaks the words he taught her. She pulls some things out if the bag at her side and it turns into a weasel. It scurys around and sits on the box between them.
"Can you really fix him? Mrs.Ephebe says she can but she is busy right now."
"He is important. He teaches me magic like Mama and Grama did. Today he taught me this."
She moves her hands and speaks the words he taught her. She pulls some things out if the bag at her side and it turns into 1d3 a weasel. It scurys around and sits on the box between them.
"Can you really fix him? Mrs.Ephebe says she can but she is busy right now."
"Hai, I think so. Ignace-chan has been teaching me to sew. I like your magic, Sara-chan. Can he teach other people to do that too?" Midori says looking at the bear with... suspicion, but that tone does not enter into her voice.
Ehos is taken completely aback when Jaiye jumps into his lap, but his arms instictively go around her, pulling her closer. He sees the tears start to flow and does the only thing he can think of - seeing how the datapad is in a hand which has wrapped around her: kiss away the tears.His silence is almost painful, but he holds her tight. How could he have ever done what he did? How could he have hurt her? He had to be better than that. He had to be better than this, if only for her sake.
She stays there in his arms for a couple of minutes, holding him tight, reassuring herself that he was in fact still there. Eventually she does draw back a little.
"Okay, I didn't follow all of that too closely after the part you said you kind of died for a little while. I think you might need to repeat some of that. You went to the Abyss? And got some kind of demon mark there? That went away when you saw me? I'm a little confused here."
She blushed and smiled. "I do believe you are getting the hang of this flirting thing," she teased as they started walking towards the wooded area near the edge of the school grounds.
