Welcome to Gaia! ::

Again, the dorm lock on Rosie's door was easy. He wondered if his own room would be this simple to break into? Naturally, he had no enemies as of current within the walls of Grove - unless Colin decided to instigate a blood-feud with him. He didn't have any real reason to lock his doors, but something nagged at him to check. Security had been important all of his life until now, but even this gilded prison had its flaws.

Inside was darkened, as the others' were. He supposed not everyone was quite the night-owl that he was. It wasn't often that he was asleep before midnight. He loved just watching the stars for a while.

Rosie was sleeping soundly, and he'd learned with Ella that a direct approach with the least physical contact was better than what he'd done to Colin. He wondered if the boy would still have turned on him if he hadn't tried to restrain him. Ah well, what more could he do now? He knelt down beside Rosie's bed, and shook the edge gently.

"Rosie Posey, wake up. It's Samyule. Remember me?"

He laughed. "You thought I was coming to suuuuck your blooood?" He stuck his fingers on either side of his mouth to mimic fangs. "Nope, not hardly. Even if I was a vampire, I heard this place keeps stores of blood for the vampire students so that they don't have to take it from us regular shmoes." Coming from him, the slang word sounded out of place, but he muddled through it and smiled crookedly at his efforts.

"Alright, so initial fright gone away?" He sat back on his heels, as he'd done for Ella's comfort, but the only difference was that this girl still held a lamp in her throwing hand. He eyed it with eyebrows raised. "Or do I have to do the super-durable demonstration again?"

"Damn fun is more likely. I have a secret plan that's...well, not so secret anymore, I guess. I've woken Colin, and Ella, and now you, and I'm wanting all of us to go midnight swimming in the gym's pool." His plan sounded kind of childish, and insane to do in a school filled with excitable adolescents who have the ability to become extremely violent. However, that's what got his blood moving. And truth be told, he couldn't think of a better way to meet people other than a harrowing adventure.

Here, in the relative safety of the Academy grounds, he couldn't think of anything that would command more adrenaline than breaking-and-entering during the midnight hours. Whether he imagined her look of question, or it was genuine, he felt the need to clarify himself. "I can get us in no question, and I think this would be...something to remember? I think we all need a chance to make at least one unforgettable school memory while we're here..."

He smiled. Seeing the mischievous side of her was something he hadn't expected when he first met the emotional girl back in the cafeteria. He hadn't expected it either, after spending a quiet relaxing afternoon in the chime gardens by the koi ponds, and watching her facial expressions evolve as she learned of his powers. It was just the fuel he needed after feeling slightly uncertain about this whole thing. Ella and Colin were probably on their way down - maybe - and if they weren't, Samyule and Rosie would enjoy themselves alone.

He hadn't expected her to change so quickly, though, or with him so nearby. Really, when confronted with this sort of thing he went to pieces quickly. So when she came back out, he had to compose himself while hearing her explain about the ledge. And then the crack about his gender.

Ah, a challenge. He'd do better than live up to it. "Pft, a ledge. Who needs a ledge. You're on what...the second floor?" He stood and shook out his knees, ankles, and feet, limbering them up. "You want to jump out of the window, hm? Do you trust me?"

He laughed again. "Well, that's the general idea anyway. Think of what it would do to my reputation as a performer! Oh the scandal." He bent down and started untying his shoes. He found that getting a grip with his feet, and feeling the earth and air underneath of them was much easier done without shoes. The only unfortunate part was that she would have to hold them.

"Here, take these. Also, what we're going to do is exactly the same as a piggy-back ride. You're going to hold on tightly, and just trust me to not kill us." He laughed again, knowing how unsettling that would sound. "Just think logically for a moment. I'm a circus freak. I've tossed, caught, spun, flipped, and generally twirled hundreds of girls before. You're small. You'll do just fine. Just hang on tightly. If something happens, I give you permission to explode me later."

He turned around to examine the outside of the window. He was wearing dark clothes, and so was she, so no one would notice them dropping from a second story window. He just had to hope no one was in the room below them, looking out. Ah well, it would be easier than sneaking back out of the dorm. He had been lucky to get in, in the first place.

"Ready?"
