Yuu vc: ...do you want me to take you to that café Tsunotaro?

Ooc; Just ask directly 🤣 he doesn't need to hint hint nudge nudge.

[gamenu]

         "Correct me if I'm wrong dear, but last time we spoke you mentioned something about a tree-picking talent?" Beryl's mouth purses as she tries to recall whether that was the right descriptor or not, but she keeps stitching away at the cloth spread out across her lap. Tricky business to sew and stitch under the sea, but she'd gotten rather good at it over time. Now she merely wanted something to do with her hands as she rested against an outcropping of rock, finding the back-and-forth motion of the needle soothing.

         "How does that work, if you don't mind me asking? How does any fairy know what their talent is, or do they have to find out over time like other species do?"

                                                  -- @wishkept ( feat. Beryl )

         "Yup! They're tha ones who go off an' pick fruits an' nuts from tha trees. They somehow know when everythin' is ripe an' fresh. I appreciate everythin' they do, but I sure enough don' envy 'em. 's a very dangerous job." Too many stories Naira has heard of her fellow fairies only just barely missing being crushed by a falling apple, or anything around that size or bigger. Or even worse, some of the stories of those who weren't fortunate enough to fly fast enough out of the way.

          To a Clumsy, it would be like having a massive rock dropped on them. Crushing them completely and killing them instantly.

          While delicious and enjoyable in every way possible, even getting food can be an ordeal for a fairy. But, it's what makes them happy no matter the danger, so Naira won't complain. Especially when it means she can enjoy some apple cake, or some roasted nuts when they bring them back!

          For her own activity while Beryl is sewing, Naira is once again practicing her counting and currancy usage. The flash cards Azul had made for her were getting a great amount of use. Matching prices, subtracting, adding, rounding, everything. It was a lot, and she swears she could feel her eyes being tired. But at the very least, she was getting a little better at it. Naira was getting a lot faster than she had been months prior.

          The fairy looks to her companion for a moment, a long, thoughtful look. How long had it been since she's last seen any new arrivals on the island? Every time she goes back home, there's new faces for her to meet before having to leave again soon. Still, she gives a gentle shake of her head as an answer. "We know as soon as we appear."

          There's another pause as she picks up a coin, thinking back to her own arrival day. "--We're carried by tha wind from tha clumsy that laughed us. Mos' times, we cling ta flowers an' such tha' become our arrival garments. Tha Fast-Flying fairies create winds when we're close enough ta guide us. . .an' then when we ge' our first cup o' dust, tha actual fairy comes out. I. . .remember meetin' tha Queen firs'. An' then I remember meetin' Mom. Mother Dove."

          Putting the coin back down, she begins tugging on her bangs in thought. Trying to remember as much as she can, while not overwhelming her other mother figure. "An' we jus' know. Sometimes if we're confused, they'll let us touch thin's tha' belong ta other talents ta see if i' reacts. When we find tha one tha does, tha's who we go with. So we know tha momen' we're 'born', basically."

"Say, Leona-shi..." Idia makes a face, shifting so that the others wouldn't notice him addressing Savanaclaw's housewarden over their own bickering. "Do any of these people have magic that you can pick up on? That Jack guy or... any of them?"

@wishkept

At the other's call, Leona offers a glance, hoping that the other wouldn't start rambling about isekais once more. At the question, he shakes his head before Idia can even finish. Since the skeleton had popped up, he hadn't picked up even a hint of magic from him. The only unfamiliar magic that stunk up the place was that badger bastard they'd only now met. Whatever was going on in this world they'd stumbled into he'd yet to figure out. Maybe the town could offer more answers...

Before he can share any of these thoughts, his attention is snapped away when the lizard says his own name, Malleus sharing that he sensed no magic in this new world they found themselves in. He rolls his eyes, but nods in agreement, once more looking at Idia as the group continued to speak. "It's like horns said over there. No magic. Whatever's happening here nothing that makes sense in our own world. Either way, don't go getting caught up in any trouble on your own. Can't be too careful when there's weird monsters running around."

Now if only they could find someone who made even a lick of sense around here...

"is this an audience or a mosaic?" Maleanor to Baur

Being within the presence of royalty meant there was a large amount of formality and maturity expected from him. Though Maleanor's words did force the knight to turn his head slightly and stare almost confused from the side he was standing at. It was fairly obvious to him, and he believed her to, but being incredibly blunt as always hardly goes down well even with the General. The princess? He would be a fool to even utter something slightly wrong even if at times it came out that way.

"An audience, my lady. The humans wished to speak on some matter." He had to force down his own opinions. If he could, it would have been a rant on how they could never be trusted to even talk a sentence within the royalty's presence. "General Lilia will be here shortly, I believe. Just in case."

[pomfiores]

@wishkept said: He has been presented a rare chance to learn more from a direct source. It would be the height of rudeness and folly to misuse the opportunity.

folly... you forget who he is 😤 he listened and listened well, that doesn't mean he won't acknowledge the fact malleus kept him longer than necessary

"You like apples, right?" They say, pushing an apple into his hands before (gently) offering Gidel one as well. "Welcome to the dorm. You want a room on the ground floor or upper floor? And no, you can't turn the building into an attraction. I won't stop the ghosts from pranking you if you try." (From the Director)

" You know what they say, an apple a day keeps the doctor away ! " he hums in a sing-a-song tune as the apple in his hands is thrown for a spin, safely landing right back into his hand and rolling smoothly across his whole arm and coming onto the other. Warm orange hues glance at the other apple rolling towards Gidel as the child gently stops the apple on the table then silently glances up at him. A small nod of his head is granted and the child offers him a warm smile back and takes the apple into his hands, wasting no time in taking a few bites.

" Tsk figures, oh come on my friend, where is your entrepreneur spirit ! You have a nice little spot on your hands, you should make the most out of it ! "

@wishkept asked: hc + 🚬 for a headcanon about a bad habit hc + 🤥 for a lie-themed headcanon

Thematic Headcanons. || Open

🚬- Another bad habit of their's is that if their hair grows out they tend to take a strand and chew on it. It's something that they do subconsciously and usually happens when they were studying. Outside of cutting their hair regularly to sell, this is another reason they keep it short.

🤥- Thinks lying about their identity is a hassle but knows having a female student in an entire campus full of boys is a recipe for disaster. It's one of Crowley's very few good ideas. Too bad a majority of the main cast have figured it out by the time book 7 rolls around. Luckily no one seems keen on misusing this information for blackmail.

When was the last time you actually got some rest? (From Vil)

lack of sleep starters! // @wishkept

"Rest? Who has time to rest?" Idia seems almost offended at the mere thought of deigning to sleep when there's so much hype around all the new releases happening this week. New games, new anime seasons and even a new single from his idol group are all going to be out in the same week. "It's like back-to-back special events happening IRL, if I miss even one I'm never going to experience that launch day serotonin!"

It's all on top of his schoolwork and projects of course. Idia may be easily excitable when it comes to his hobbies, but he's not irresponsible. That said, the bags under his eyes are more prominent than usual, and the serious answer to Vil's question would only earn him a concerned and probably very stern look. Idia would like to avoid that, thanks.

"Whee hee hee! And the new season of my fav anime is dropping tomorrow, I can't wait..."

Go off about Jade's fanons 💜

Send me a “ 🔥 “ for an unpopular opinion.

An unpopular opinion I have is that I do see Jade capable of throwing a tantrum. I've written in some, albeit rare, asks where Jade did the closest thing one could call a tantrum, especially for Jade. His tantrums aren't fiery and widespread like Floyd's tend to be. Jade rarely lashes out, but he does have a temper. He can get upset. He can frown and pout, and since I've been playing twist again recently, I see that it's actually more obvious than I last remembered it:

Jade smiles when he's mocking or insulting someone

Jade smiles during inappropriate moments, usually when something bad happens to someone else, even if Jade isn't the one behind it

Jade smiles when he's saying something with a different meaning compared to what he deliberately lets out

Jade smiles in general when he's speaking to someone else

Jade smiles a bit more when he's unusually nervous

but also,

Jade frowns when something is deeply serious or when he is genuinely upset

Jade's lips form a thin line, a neutral expression when he does not like how things are going at the moment

Jade's frown is reserved for rare, seldomly seen occasions, but it is enough to prove that he does actually have feelings even if he tends to be incredibly subtle with them

@wishkept liked post

Yuu stood next to Rook watching everyone dance. "Did you find anything good for Vil?" He asked swaying a bit to the music. Azul had said he would dance with Yuu. Though the other was soon approached by many other mages. Most of the group had been pulled into the dance. He had quickly rushed to stand with Rook. "I was trying to find him something fun for his room!" Yuu prattled fidgeting with his hands eyes glued to the other students dancing.

@wishkept sent || ❛ no one beats me, no one wins my game. ❜ - Idia, wishkept

“Hardly fair saying that when I have no experience playing anything remotely close to the games you guys have here.” Yuu puffed her cheek in annoyance having lost at the dice game she had once seen Idia and Azul playing. She had been curious about the game itself and though she wasn’t officially a member of the gaming club, or any other club for that matter, she had been given the liberty to wander and test her options on what sort of club might interest her. It was only natural that she’d be drawn to the gaming club above most of the others, being as her athletic skills were mediocre at best. Sure, there was also the science club and a couple of off sided clubs that only seemed to consist of one to two members but none of those really seemed to interest her either. Along with that one of the benefits of the gaming club was that she wouldn’t get bored easily and the other was of course the fact that certain games required strong intellect, both of which were important attributes to the prefect, but the more she had sat back and watched the interactions in this gaming club the more she’d begun to wonder if it was really worth it? 

“There’s such a thing as winning with honor you know.” She huffed once more, there was also such a thing as not being a sore loser, which Yuu would entirely argue she wasn’t, but it could be looked at as her being one in that moment. “Is this how it goes though I wonder? When someone wins they showboat and make sure the losing party knows they definitely lost?” She could see it being a thing, considering the type of students in the school and she’d already known first hand that at least two of the club members hated the very notion of losing. 

Coyly smiling Yuu crossed her arms over her chest, if that was the mentality of this club and how it was going to be, well then she could play this sort of game too. “Silly me getting upset about losing, obviously the fact you’re a bot-man is coming into play here. How could a normie expect to win against someone that can calculate every conceivable outcome no matter what I might have rolled or done.” It sounded cold, and honestly that fact alone bothered Yuu, being as she wasn’t really the type to even try and put others down for her own benefit; but at the same time she needed to gain such a mentality if she had a single hope of living in this crazy place. 

“If it’s a matter of this being ‘your game’ as you put it to then fine, I’ll make a simple game from my home world and we’ll just see how well you do then.” Declaring a challenge on the other hand, that wasn’t something Yuu particularly minded doing.

"A question for you, Kingscholar." Malleus tucks a hand under his chin, tipping his head to the side as he studies his fellow dorm head. "What advice would you be willing to give in regards to earning a woman's romantic affection?"

He gives a disinterested hum at the other's voice, only half listening as he continues in his solo game of chess. It's only when the other's query sinks in that emerald eyes settle on the fae, the lion doing little to conceal his amusement. Malleus Draconia asking for romantic advice? He had to wonder if the world was ending or was the other so infatuated with this 'lady' that he's desperate enough to ask Leona of all people for help.

"...Advice huh?" The curl of his lips in a mocking smirk is hint enough that Malleus may not hear the advice he wants, Leona giving the other little time to respond to the rhetorical question as he continues, "I could write you an entire book and I doubt it'd be any help to you, lizard. You're 'bout as smooth as that goop the bat makes~"

Of course that didn't mean he wasn't curious who had caught the fae's attention. It wasn't like the guy frequently had a partner to parade around. "So who is it? Someone from the island or back home?" Or is she even real? He was tempted to say as much, but held his tongue for now. It was best not to push the other's buttons too much lest the fae storm off at his teasing.

❝when i look at you, i feel i’m gazing at a distant star. ❞ - Aite to Dia @wishkept

"...I wonder why is that." There are theories, of course. Diamont frowns, looks up at Aite for an instant. Long nails scrape at the tome he always brings with him, a comfort item more than anything at this point. "It might be because I am not from here... but it seems that such a thing is not that uncommon."

If that was an attempt at humor, it'd be best left alone. He is not great at such things, after all. Aite is a curious person - Dia's personality either has people stick to him like glue out of curiosity, or they quickly go off their own way due to how impossible it is to get anything out of the sorcerer.

"... But while that may look like a joke, magic functions the same but differently in other planes. Apparently." Now he is going off about something else entirely. Well, it is still tangentially related. He is going to take advantage of that. "So it might feel familiar but not.

They might work differently and have different values, but the fundamentals are still there. I would say that this is how magic is usually connected." He nods, more to himself than Aite. There is a short pause. Another question blooms in his brain. "What do you usually feel when you look at other people? Or do you not feel anything at all?"

@wishkept said: Present and happy to serve, Your Majesty 🧎‍♀️

GENTLY CUPPING YOUR FACE IN MY HANDS!! CERMIT!

[fellowhonest]

The Director gives him a long side-eye, a smile beginning to form as their lips twitch. There's a certain level of smugness in their expression as they remark, "Could've told you that everyone at NRC would be more trouble than their worth. You might've had more luck with RSA if you'd gone there instead."

They soften at the sight Gidel though, and dig into their pocket for a piece of candy for him.

"But if you do decide to make your own school, be prepared for a lot of headaches. Wish you the best though."

The fox offers them a subtle stinky eye in return, not very fond of the expression he's greeted with, chin resting between his fingers as he falls into thought for a brief second. While he can agree on one hand about that, there is no point in lying to himself since he knows what he got himself into. He knows that brats and delinquents was what he NEEDED from the start, since goodie two shoes would never even dream of skipping class or engaging into such a suspicious advanture. Of course he knew it was gonna be a headache but in the same time he was also a realist and knew that he doesn't really have a choice than deal with these brats on a daily. He instinctively moves and gently pulls Gidel closer to him.

" If i allow any of the students that would come into my school to become such insufferable brats as these ones i would very much throw all of them out in the sea, i assure you " he pipes in with a playful smile, after all, now he is the boss of his own life and now there is nobody to force him to deal with brats so he will not just let things slide so easily anymore if naughty kids cross the line of his patience.

" Ah but we'll see what the future holds, perhaps we can exchange some stories in the near future, Prefect, since one i'm sure i will be stepping onto this port once again " he summons his cane with a spin " Nevertheless, when that day comes, i hope i'll have the pleasure to find you doing much better and be more free from these brats "
