Ever smiled politely and nodded. "I will try a drink when you bring your specialties, yes. Thank you again for the free..."
She gasped when Professor Tenjin nudged forward and asked for a cappuccino. She had heard of that before. But then she gasped again when he knocked over Ari in his sleepy stupor. She reached down and tried to help her up.
"I'm sorry about that, Ari. That is Professor Tenjin and please don't take it personally. He's run over quite a number of students. It's just how he is."
She passed her barely-touched cup of coffee to her professor. "Here, Professor Tenjin. You can have my coffee. See you in class later today. And thank you again, Musica. See ya later."
She would have waited for Ari to join her in the food line, but she figured that she'd want to talk with Musica a little while longer. So, with a polite nod to everyone, she went toward the back of the cafeteria where all the food was. She got her tray, got an egg, cereal, blueberries, and a slice of toast as well as some milk. Then, she went and found a seat at one of the long tables. She only had about 10 minutes to eat before she had to run back up to the 3rd floor to meet Akira and Aurora for meditation. Since she was the only one familiar with it, she knew she had to be there on time.
Quickly, as she reached for her toast, she glanced down at some of the hair that fell over her shoulder. She smiled again as she realized that it was STILL red. This was awesome.

Canning her irritation, she smirked at Musica. "Ich werde einer der Welpen, sehr wahrscheinlich!" she said flirtatiously back at him. When he lifted her glasses, her heart stopped. Nobody but her mother had ever done that. Her eyes were wide with shock, and it left her scrambling for her answer. "Well," she murmured, "I can't see, so I don't have a lot of control over my eyes. They tend to wander, and it freaks people out. To save them from my wandering eyes, I wear my sunglasses. It simplifies things. It has nothing to do with being 'worthy'!" she said, and angry flush coloring her cheeks.
The flush faded, however, when she heard she had just sassed a Teacher, and not a student. Crap... she thought. A smooth way to start the day. When she felt Ever leave, she was even more disconcerted. So much for having someone to follow. Looked like another day of wandering for her. Sighing, she rested a hand on a table. "Can I touch your face?" she suddenly asked Musica. "It's how I see people... I make a picture in my head. It probably isn't accurate, but at least it helps me put a face to a name... You don't have to let me," she added hastily.
(Lol, 'can I touch your face?')

Musica gasped sudden when Ari fell, almost feeling a small spark of anger at the rude profressor but he supressed it. "Are you all right Miss Ari? And I'm sorry sir but none of my special coffees are here this moment. If you don't want Miss Evermore's coffee I'll gladly fix you a cup of regular black. That okay with you sir?" When he saw Ari was all right he let out a deep breath in relief. Her sudden reaction to him raising her glasses didn't surprise him, nor did it cause him to put them back down. "Yes I could tell your blind, but there's nothing wrong with your eyes as far as I can see now. You shouldn't let other people's opinions effect you. I learned long ago that if you care too much about what other people think you'll stop caring about your own thoughts at all." He the reached for her hand which he then brought up to his lips so she could feel his smile. "Why yes of course you can, anything to help you. Not that I mind in the least. Sie würden vermutlich mein Lieblingsfräulein Ari sein. Möglicherweise sogar mein besitzen Sie sehr Schosshund." He spoke still with her fingers lightly pressed against his lips.
((Musica: Oh you can touch where ever you like *flexes muscles*.
I don't think I could make him more irresistable if I tried. XD ))

"Uh? No, no, you must apply acibek's principle when cas... Oh? Oh. Thank you..." Tenjin regained his grip on reality when the student approached him and offered him her coffee.
"Miss." The man finished speaking after a brief pause, during which he tried in vain to recall her name. It was of course, too late as the student had already ran off. Or walked away. In his current state of mind, Tenjin couldn't quite tell.
"Mmm... I was really needing this. The threaties of Dorothy Flamel on white magic make quite an engrossing reading." The professor spoke, to noone in particular as he inhaled the fumes of the revitalizing drink.
Slightly more awake and with newfound balance, the teacher trodded off. Drinking as he walked, he slowly made his way across the yard, to the man building, sipping his coffee once every few steps. Making slow but gradually more significant progress, on both his drink and travel, the man started whistling a merry tune. However, it didn't take him long to find this to get in the way of his coffee. After a failed attempted at doing both tasks simultaneously, he called the music quits.
Another thing that he had to quit was walking. The semi-dazed, but recovering man had reached an intersection. This intersection brought a fascinating revelation upon him. One which he voiced, while he scratched his head with his free hand. "I think I forgot where the classroom was..."

Ari trembled as he placed her fingers to his lips. ”Are you calling me a dog?” she said, laughing lightly at his smile. ”Trotzdem glaube ich nicht, könnten Sie mir umgehen! Dann wieder, würde ich beiße nicht mein Besitzer. Schosshund sollten nicht beißen ihre Herren, die sie lieben,” she replied wittily. Removing her hand from his lips, she gently placed her fingertips upon his brow. Fanning out her fingers, she traced the shape of his forehead, then his eyebrows… her fingers sliding softly down his temples. Ari brushed her sensitive fingers over his eyelids, and then down the bridge of his nose. She traced the shape of his jaw, and the shape of his cheek bones. Smirking, she finally brought her fingers to his lips. With her index finger, she slowly traced the curve of his lips, and found him smiling.
When she was done, she pulled her hands away and tucked them under her chin, thinking. ”You don’t look half bad,” she said, laughing. ”Then again looks don’t really matter to me, considering that I’ll never actually see you,” she said sadly.
(Ari: I'd tap that! Where are you again? -flails around-
Lol, 'lapdog', nice touch! biggrin )

Musica resisted the temptation to laugh as he came back with a retort. "I don' t-Mittel, unhöfliches Fräulein Ally, aber Sie zu scheinen bilden einen sehr entzückenden Schosshund. Obgleich Ihr Beißen mit einer kleinen Bestrafung vom Meister behandelt werden könnte." the tone with which he spoke seemed even more deep. Despite his relaxed and passive nature, when it came down to how he played Musica played the dominant with whatever gender he was with. The touch of her curious fingers across his sensitive skin caused his muscles to tremor from the pleasure he felt at the tickling sensation. When he'd began preparing the coffee he had removed his jacket to prevent himself from getting to hot underneath. All he had on now was his blank tank top so his vibrating muscles were very easy to see by any one around him, even though the crowd was beginning to die down around him. The girls could tell they weren't to have any luck swooning over him so they simply left. Musica frowned at the mention of her sight. "I wish I could give you a way to see Miss Ari, but alas I can not." He then chuckled at another thought. "If it helps I could let you feel the rest of my body. You'd get to know what I look like that way as well, maybe even what your looking for." He said as he brought her hand up to feel him winking.
((Thanks, didn't know it was that amazing though XD ))

Ever had finally finished her breakfast. She quickly put her tray up in the used tray-area and then went back to her seat. She grabbed her book bag and started to head toward the door. However, she paused and looked down at her chest. Hmm... She had her locket with her. She hadn't tried to use it recently. So, looking around her to make sure no one was paying attention, she walked out of the cafeteria, looked around again, and then opened up her locket.
She smiled in awe as the golden map unfurled again, like it did last night. The same beautiful pulses of light lit up the map, though the pulse of light wasn't as strong over the lake now. The fairies and spirits were sleeping in the forest now, so there wasn't as strong of magic over the lake now.
She really wished she knew who had had the locket before Ares had come into posession of it. Then maybe she could find out who made the locket and see if they could cast a spell on it to find areas that were blocked by spells.
Oh well. That wouldn't be as challenging, would it? And Ever liked a challenge. It kept her occupied and, for the most part, out of trouble. Plus, she and Akira could still work together to find it!

Ari listened to him, a smirk upon her lips. "You're trembling... do I make you nervous?" she asked, smugly. She ran her hand down the curve of his neck, and felt the edge of his tank top. "... or perhaps you are merely cold, ja?" she commented, laughing. "Ach, aber wie oft kommt es, dass ein Hund eine Runde Rinde schlimmer als Biss?" she said dismissively, smiling at him. At his next comment, she brought his hand to her face, (even thought it was unnecessary because he could see), so he might feel her smile. "Ja, maybe… but we don’t know each other that well yet! Herr Musica, I couldn’t even tell you your favorite color, nor your favorite type of animal… but you seem to have an unhealthy fascination with lapdogs,” she teased him. She could feel a number of people leaving, and her hand dropped to her pocket where her schedule was. She had a class, but it would be so much more fun to stick around and talk with Musica… though, she was sure she’d see him again. ”Ach! I have a class… I ought to go,” she said, tossing her empty cup into a nearby trash bin. ”It’ll take me a bit to find my classes. I’ll see you later, right? Die Mädchen Sie werden nicht in der Lage flüchten... Sie alle wollen, dass ihre erschossen, als gut! Ich scheine für die Mehrheit der Ihre Aufmerksamkeit auf mich...” she said, and smiled again. With a wave over her shoulder to him, she pulled her glasses back down over her eyes and took out her clicker (Franz). With that, she was gone.
As she was leaving, she ran into Ever. She could tell by the footsteps. "Hey! Where you headed to?" she asked, not wanting to seem a bother.

Ever heard the voice behind her and she quickly shut her locket. She hoped that the person hadn't seen anything.
When she turned around, she had to hold back her sigh of relief upon seeing that it was Ari. Well she wouldn't have seen anything... but she could sense things better than most people. Could she have sensed the magic coming from the locket?
What was she thinking?! This whole school was filled with magic! Ari probably just assumed that Ever was practicing a spell!
Ever smiled and shifted her backpack to her other shoulder. "Actually, I'm meeting a couple people on the 3rd floor for meditation. I do it every morning and this will be the first time my friends have joined me."
She hoped she could call Aurora a friend. She had really enjoyed talking with her last night during supper.
Even though Ari couldn't see her, Ever smiled at her anyway and asked, "You wanna come?"

"Me? Stay quiet for more than five minutes? I guess I could try," she said, laughing. She closed the remaining distance between herself and Ever, clicking Franz the whole way. "... and to answer your question from earlier: no. I can't see color, only shapes," she grimaced. "I wish I could. I would love to know what blue looks like. For real," she said, smiling slightly. "Lately, though, if someone or something stands against a pure white background, I can 'see' them. Vaguely. It's odd, and I don't know how it happens. That's why I asked someone to paint a wall in my dorm all white, so I can practice," she explained. "The longer I sit and stare at the white, the clear something gets. It's horrible, though because it doesn't work with any other color. It's a tease!" she said, sighing.

Ever listened intently to what Ari had to say, and she desperately wanted to help her. She herself didn't have the powers to help her, but she obviously had connections that did. It was just that getting them to do anything selfless and without actually hurting instead of helping was a very hard thing to do. Gods did not like to do that.
And she would not use Ares to help her. She would bounce ideas off of him and trade knowledge with him, but she would not become what she feared Ares still might reveal himself to be in the future. She didn't want to be a user.
Ever smiled at Ar, even though she couldn't see her, and started climbing the steps to the 2nd floor and then to the 3rd. "Well, maybe meditation will be able to help you with that. If you can train your body and mind to focus on something long enough, including color, maybe you could actually see color in the future. It can't hurt, right?"

"If I even knew what color looked like," she said grumpily, following Ever. "Seriously, everyone I've ever asked to describe a color to me has used the name of the color in their definition. Seriously. I get it though, it's hard. You try describing blue to me without using the word 'blue', or any other color variation! It's hard," she said, nodding as she climbed the stairs.

Ever shook her head, now on the flight of the stairs to the 3rd floor. "I don't think you CAN describe a color. It's more of an experience, I think, than a description."

After he'd taken his own hands away from her face, he felt the sudden absence of her skin underneath the touch of his own. He sighed from shear difference the air felt against his skin compared to it. Hoping to get it a final word before she was too far away, he shouted aloud. "Diese Mädchen konnten nur gelten als einen generischen Ersatz zu Ihrem erstaunlichen Gespräch und zu Anwesenheit Fräulein Ari. Sorgen Sie sich nicht, ich ist hier für eine Weile mit dieser Rate!" He was grinning from ear to ear, knowing she was bound to have heard him. He continued finishing the orders of the other girls until each was satisfied and reluctantly left to their classes. He pulled up a chair he had brought along and sat down in it to take a short rest. Propping his feet up on another chair he brought for that reason, he dropped his shades down over his eyes so that unless you looked closely you couldn't see his eyes. He remained in the chair wide awake, although some would accuse him to be sleeping on the job.

"I couldn't agree more," she said to Ever. "It's an experience I hope to have before I die... not that I plan to die any time in the near future!" she said hastily. She tilted her head to the side as Musica's voice drifted to her ears. A normal person wouldn't have heard it, for they would have been too far away. She, on the other hand, heard it perfectly. Smirking, she quickened her pace to catch up with Ever.
As she neared Ever, something suddenly occurred to Ari. "Hey, Ev, (do you mind me calling you Ev?), how old did Musica look?" she asked, sticking her tongue out between her teeth. She hoped he'd been close to their age, otherwise she'd feel just about as dumb as she probably looked flirting with some older guy.
