Courtyard (South)

[Moonduster]

Butterfly was more of an observer then a socialist and she caught on quickly about his unusual movements. At the same time watching the clear waters from the fountain come back to life the moment he left it. Making her to start thinking that he was a powerful magic user. Unlike her who focused more on physical strength then her shadow manipulations. Personally, she didn't think the name suited her at all but she wasn't about to contrudict his opinions that would've been rude to do so.

Watching him like a hawk as this Tallan moved towards her with slow graceful steps. She kept her place not about to move back from where she stood. The man didn't give any threatening gestures but she still kept her guard up. Turning her head to the right slightly to gaze off towards the shadows. It seemed like that of which he has mentioned was the number one topic people like to start off when it comes to her.

Butterfly wouldn't know if she would consider her loss a burden. But, the fact she has to uphold the family name and follow traditions slightly was. And the fact she had to learn the difficult ways of life at a very young age. Again she wasn't about to complain about such matters. She was never a complainer she just went along with what people gave her to go with.

"It would depend upon which subject of which you speak of Sir Tallan." her voice staying soft as always turning her gaze back to him.  

[Ceron]

"And does the subject truly...matter that much?" was the first response he gave to her. "Does not the mere fact that I am aware of the burden not tell you how heavily it weighs upon you? Others may not see it, you yourself may not see it..." he moved to her said with a rhythmic pace, glancing sideways toward her as he passed. "...by I certainly see it. I see...quite well in fact." he turned his back to her then, sliding his uncovered left hand into the pocket of his pants. His other hand raised to his chest, opened slightly but of course, kept from sight since he was turned away from her. There was another pause in his words, giving notice to the fact that the wind had seemed to stop. "Do you in fact wish to learn to control your abilities?" was how he broke the silence...  

[Moonduster]

Butterfly watched him carefully as he walked closer to the point where he was beside her. He wasn't that much taller then her perhaps about three or four inches higher. She guess it wouldn't matter to her much but the fact she would wake up every night in a cold sweat did make it such a big deal to her. Which is why she rarely sleeps. She didn't bother to turn around as he continued on pass her. Busy staring off at the ground as she kept her opinions to herself.

Her right hand instinctively coming up and playing with the black collar around her neck that hid the scar that ran across her throat. Having the need to pull it tighter but she had taught herself to stop doing that about six months ago. At least she wasn't afraid of men anymore like she used to. Her shadow flickered as her emotions raced inside her. Frowing she focused upon it and made it go still.

"I will need to sometime." she answered half turning to stare at the back of his head. "Why does thou wish to know?'  

[Ceron]

He stopped the moment she asked. And again, he did pause, turning his head only a little toward her so that she may see his lips, curled in a smirk as they were. Once again, his own shadow seemed to cast over the ground, but this time it was behind her. In that moment, the shadow became thick, it darkened and became as deep as the night itself. And, in that moment, two other figures, shadows identical to the first, split from the original and were now on either side of Tallan. "Hmm...I have no reason to have asked truly. I was...merely curious..." he moved closer to her, the shadows vanishing into the night air. He drew closer to her, much closer to her side. Without hessitation, incentive, or warning, he lightly placed his index finger under her chin and tilted his head so that he may have a better look into her eyes. "...call it a feeling..." he whispered, then took in a deep breath before exhaling. "...of instinct."  

[Moonduster]

Golden brand eyes watched the first shadow move into position then darken like that of the deepest hole in the stars above. It was as if something had taken something forever untouched and gave it texture had given it life. Then like the atom it was split to create more duplicates of it. Having the exact characteristics as the first one. It reminded her of something similiar to what she had taught herself but Tallan's trick involved a greater mass then that she was used to working with. She could already tell that she was far behind him when it comes to that level.

Butterfly's focus being drawn away from it when she noticed the faintest movement Tallan made towards her. Even when he came so close she forced herself to stay where she was. Though she did tense up more and her hand again went back to play with the collar. That was till his index finger came up beneath her chin which sent a chill straight up her spine causing the rest of her body to shiver so very slightly. Her breath coming out short as if something had gotten caught in her throat. All current thoughts simply vanishing into thin air like wiping a black board down with a rag. Finding herself gazing right back into his deep ocean pulls. With Tallan being so close now it was visible to see his own reflection but there was also a strange color surrounding the image of him in her eyes. A light azure color that seemed to be nearly blanketing him acting like a barrier of sorts. Yet, the color was no where on him in reality yet it was appearing in her golden eyes. Those pale cheeks of her got a small tint of rose in them.

"...That's...a good instinction, sir Tallan.." she whispered beneath her breath shakily.

Closing her eyes, Aegle listened to everything around her. It was amazing, she could hear conversation between others perfectly even though they were some distance away. It was like they standing right next to her speaking every word directly into her ears. She could hear the sound of the water from the fountain running, the birds in the tree as they flapped their wings to land and take off.
A large smile appeared on her lips revealing the tips of her fangs as she opened her eyes in amazement. A whole new world had been opened to her and she couldn't wait to discover it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

It had been several days since the boo bash and Siren had to admit that she had enjoyed herself and ever since she has felt a lot more at home here in Ria high.
She took her time enjoying her peace of mind as she walked towards the fountain letting her thought run through her mind.
I wonder how Dinah is? I haven't really spoken to her since that night in the Boo bash, i really should go and talk. hmm and did Maru catch up to Yusake, he seemed quite desperate to find him
Reaching the fountain she sat on the edge letting her hair fall to sides of her face and the tips just reaching the surface of the water.

A figure walked into the moonlit courtyard. At first it seemed that the figure was merely a shadow until the slender form of Kamaria appeared her slightly tanned skin being illuminated by the moonlight, the red birthmarks all over her shoulders and arms where clearly visible due to usual black dress Kamaria wears; the Dress was strapless and went down enough at the back to show her back birthmark before turning into a criss-cross pattern fastening to almost the base of her back getting narrower all the way. When the front and back of the dress reached down to just below her hips, the dress split into two pieces one at the back and one at the front however these two pieces where still held together by the same criss-cross fastening until it reached well past halfway down her thigh. The Dress itself was pure black which blended into the night, except for some white grey symbols here and there, the symbols seemed random but they where in a pattern, to Kamaria at least. As usual her hands wore three rings each and she wore at least two bracelets and one arm bracelet. Even dressed the way she was with now visible coat and only wearing her black shoes, she didn't seem cold...

Kamaria seemed preoccupied and when she was illuminated by the moon more it was obvious by what; floating in midair was a book entitled 'Ancient scripts' the reason it was floating in mid air was the fact Kamaria was using her Psychokinesis to keep it there. Every so often a page would turn on its own and her eyes would continue to read but she never seemed to walk into anything or even have to look about. The reason she wasn't holding the book by hand became apparent when the capsule like object from the silver chain around her neck was missing. In her hands she held the object and occasionally glanced down at the markings or tried to find a switch of some sort...  

[Magus_sista]

Suddenly Aegle felt the pinch in her stomach, like what she used to feel when she was hungry for food. But the only difference now was that with this sudden pinch her eyes flashed as she herad the heart beat of those around and coul almost smell the blood flowing through their veins. Her body shook as she placed her hand to her mouth and felt very uneasy.
What...no how i can be so...No is this what i'll go through all the time. This sudden urge to just grab someone and drain their life?
Quickly she stood up and glanced around trying to fight of the urge she had to prey on those around her.
Shaking she stormed off through the crowd pushing her wy thorugh and racing off towards the hospital, her long blonde hair whiping behind her hearing muttering from the crowd as she did so.  

[Ceron]

"Indeed?" he tilted his head a little more. "Is that how you truly feel? Do you...feel that my intuition is just? Or have I crossed a line?" his hand moved closer to her, the fingers moving up her cheek and his hand cupping around her chin. "Tell me..." he would tilt her head toward his just a little, bring her eyes to his and draw closer. His thumb slowly moved across her lips with a very light touch as he continued. "...what do you feel now?" his voice never once elevated above a whisper. And the more he spoke, the closer he moved, the more his eyes could envelope her's. The air calmed, and not the slightest sign of hessitation or pause showed as Tallan moved closer.

Hakari sat on the ground and leaned against a tree and closed her eyes.Her long light purple hair glided in the wind as it blew.Her dark purple eyes closed as she layed back and rested and her hands on the side of the tree.She sighed and slowly opened her eyes and looked at the sky im so bored, there is nothing to do when im bored she mutted to herself.She layed on the tree and felt the tree's life force and growth she then sighed once more and closed her eyes again.  

[Moonduster]

Butterfly didn't mean anything of the sort and he certiantly hadn't cross the line....yet. Why she didn't brush his hand off her cheek she didn't know. On any other day she would've so what was it that was stopping her? That frightened her slightly not knowing why. Her fingers getting a more firm grip upon the collar to calm down her nerves that seem to be going balistic. Taken back by how soft Tallan's touch was upon her cheek and around her chin. Unable to take her gaze away from those eyes of his. As if they had somehow invisible ensnared her in and weren't quiet ready to let her go. The tilt cause the loose strands of red hair to brush down against her cheek and his hand to rest along side her ears. Small breaths she took in some of them coming in a bit shaky from time to time.

Her warm breath gliding over his thumb while it ran over her smooth soft lips. Trembling slightly it could barely be noticed unless you were fairly close like Tallan was. What did she feel? If only there were enough names to title the things she felt swirling around in the pit of her stomach right now. In a sense a warm feeling was flowing through her almost fuzzy like. Frighten...perhaps just a hint of it but not very much. The top feeling was curiosity wondering what way the man was going to respond next. She had notice how every time after she answers him he seemed to be drawing closer and closer. By, now they were mere inches thats the closest she has gotten to a man that didn't involve violence. The second she belive was a 'want' sort of feeling. She rather liked his touch and the way he spoke she didn't want him to end it.

"I...' she started softly finding herself draw a complete blank after that. She HATED it when that happens. It always happened at the worse of times too. "..feel..curious and..a strange tingle sort of feeling...'  

[Sakura_DeVara]

Ria cocked her head slightly. She chuckled breifly. The girl was slightly funny. Ria finally decided to help the girl with her embarrassment. SHe reached down and firmly grabbed Keila's wrist and pulled her out. "Hello Keila. I'm Ria. Maybe we should get you back to you dorm so that you can change?" Ria looked Keila over and then looked around. She bit her lip and looked back at Keila. "Let's get you out of here before people notice. I'm not so much worried about people not noticing me but more along the lines of noticing you."  

[PrincessHazuki]

Hakari leaned on the tree and held her hands on the trunk of the tree and with one hand she moed it in a hand combination growing the grass near her.  

[Ceron]

He didn't speak at first, pausing for a few seconds more as he often did. His smie slowly broadened, and through his closed lips came a chuckle. He leaned in closer still, until finally his lips were a less then half an inch from her own. His eyes were still locked onto her own as all movement stopped. "...Good." his hand slid off of her face, and his head leaned away. With a simple grin instead of his broad smile, he turned his back to her and walked about two feet before stopping. "A sense of emotions is needed in order to understand how to release the greater depths of one's own abilities, whether they be physical or..." he turned his head back to her. "...otherwise." something very sudden came to mind, a spark of sorts. It showed in his eyes, the slight change in expression as he thought it over. Tallan held down on his chin and tapped his elbow with his left index finger. "Hmm...I am not one to pry, but you are not entirely...experianced...in many, more personal matters...are you? Ahehem...I do not mean to be insulting, it was simply...an observation." he adjusted his collar slightly and took one step forward, drawing close again. Both his hands folded behind his back, his right clasping his left wrist. "Mmm...yes, simply an observation. You are young, and you are not...familier with many, deeper feelings...?" he asked, arching a brow to her.
