So Many Books (OPEN)

[Kirameki]

Lissa smiled. She didn't like going outside but today seemed nice. She twirled around, looking at the sky.

[Kiki]

"It's not a bad thing to be outside, you know. In fact, it's proven to make you healthier." He smiled and sat on a benc, taking a pair of magnets out of his pocket.

[Kirameki]

Lissa looked at him blankly. "I am healthy. Very healthy. I don't like the outdoors."

[Kiki]

"That's one reason you probably can't use magic very well," he said. He was just stating a fact, not looking down on her. "If you want to use magic, you have to be connected to nature."

[Kirameki]

Lissa stared at him, feeling her anger flare. "Well," she snapped, "excuse me for having suffered allergies for the passed 3 billion years! I've never learned magic. It's never been high up on my list. I have been content practicing archery. The only reason I want to learn how to use magic is because I have nothing better to do!"

[Kiki]

He just blinked at her, clearly unfazed. "I can cure your allergies if you'd like."

[Kirameki]

Lissa glared at him. "Yes," she snapped sarcastically. "Because curing my allergies will cure all of my problems lickety split!"

[Kiki]

"If you don't want my help, then fine." His voice was cool along with his expression. he turned around and started to walk away.

[Kirameki]

Lissa covered her face. "That's not it!" she called after him. "I'm just... I can't talk to people. Or this happens. I'm sorry. I do want your help. Please?"

[Kiki]

He turned around. "I also have to apologise. I get upset when I offer to help people and they get snappy."

[Blade]

A teenaged girl walked out of the library, a complicated book on magic under her arm. She looked over the area, but her gaze traveled back to the two she had overheard in the library. They appeared to be the most amusement she'd get for awhile. "Aw, well. Anything's better than that academy. At least Nagi finally showed up, the oaf." She continued thinking about recent events, "How unfortunate that when I'm finally free from my imprisonment and drop by Kiki's place, the group have gone off to an unknown realm for awhile." She sighed, "Well, not that I would have expected to be invited, anyway, not when I'm sealed off like I was." She had sat down and started flipping through the pages of the book, skimming through it's contents.

(Just so you know, she's softly talking to herself.)

[Kirameki]

Lissa ran her hand down her face and she smiled apologetically at the boy. "It's my fault. So..." Lissa trailed off, moving her gaze from Jalen to the girl that had walked outside, her eyes lingering curiously on the book she held. Even from afar, Lissa could sense that it was a book about magic. She shook herself and looked back at Jalen. "Uhn. Where do we start with training? I've never even thought about what magic could do... Or how to make it do it..." she trailed off, wondering if the other girl could hear her.

(OOC: super sorry its late. My fault.)

[Blade]

The other girl could hear her. "Magic can do almost anything." She answered boredly, "And it merely takes practice and study to be able to use it." She noticed Lissa watching her book closely, "You're not ready to learn what this book holds. Don't even think about it. The spells in this book are for advanced magicians only." She got up, "You're still years away from being able to preform one of these."

[Kiki]

"Just keep your nose out of business that isn't yours," Jalen said curtly.

[Blade]

"When it's questions addressed to me, whether directly or indirectly, it is my business." Eva retorted, "Besides, you should probably thank me for stopping her there and then. Had I allowed your pupil to attempt one of these advanced spells, it likely would have blown up in her face." She turned on one heel, tossing as an afterword, "Additionally, if you don't want people to overhear, don't talk so loud. Nobody likes noisy people." She stepped away a couple feet to a bench, where she sat and opened the book she held. She sighed. Come on and return already, all of you. How long does simple wedding take, anyway? At least you aren't half as annoying as some people in this city...

[Kiki]

He shook his head. "We can start as soon as possible," Jalen said to Lissa.

"Well, depends how long it'll take for them to recover so they can get back here." Hora was leaning on the bench Eva was sitting on. She hadn't been there a second ago. She was the most powerful seer on the planet, never wrong.

[Blade]

Eva huffed. "It appears that I shall never complete my research, not with all the yappy people about." She muttered, then turned to Hora. "Who are you, anyway? And don't give me any of the overly dramatic crap." She kicked a leg out, staring at her shoe. "I can tell you're not as goody-goody as the Yushima family, with your use of mind reading."

[Kiki]

Hora shook her head. "Not mind reading. I'm a seer. And don't speak bad about them. You owe Kiki and Daisy your life, Eva."

[Blade]

Eva shrugged, "Life isn't worth much to one who has seen it waste away many times over." She stared Hora in the eye now, "A seer is just a fancy word. You still use magic. And so, you still have not answered my original question. Who are you?"

[Kiki]

She shrugged. "Believe what you want, young one. But I am Hora, this world's most accurate seer. I've never been wrong. First human actually created by Mother on this world." She pushed her sunglasses up.

[Blade]

Eva leaned back, "Hora, huh? Not a bad name. So, if you're right, then that means something's happened to them." She seemed not to care much, but actually she hoped they were all right.

[Kiki]

"Physically fine except for Kiki. Emotionally, destroyed."

[Blade]

Eva seemed a little happly to hear the report. "Well, I should hope so. One can't claim to love someone and not bother if they are injured."

[Kiki]

[Wait, waht does she mean? Just the wording is confusing since I'm kinda tired right now]

[Blade]

(She's happy that Yushima is not physically well, as she thinks it's only an injury. What she means is that she'd expect Night to worry about Kiki, because he said he loved her. And seeing as how he says only what he generinely believes to be true, she thinks the chance he is a "bad" person, leaving the person he claimed to love when they're injured is minimal.)

[Kiki]

She shook her head. "I should have been clearer. Kiki's dead."

[Blade]

Eva looked shocked, then grim. "I see. Well, it always happens to the good ones while they're young." She sighed, "That's something I learned way back when."

[Kiki]

"She was just in too much pain from her training with the Primordial. But she's been reborn in two different forms, one more complete than the other. I do not see her getting together with Night at all, though."

[Blade]

"Hmph." Eva stated. "Whether she is reborn or not, favors with me end at death. I owe her nothing." She rose from the bench, walking a short distance away from Hora, symbolizing she was finished with the conversation.

(You should get to the original point of the thread - along with Kirameki.)
