Welcome to Gaia! ::

Laid back as the ghoul was, Hadiyya hadn't minded so much when her partner from class hadn't made an appearance the first day, nor the second morning, but even someone with infinite patience couldn't wait forever. There was work to be done, and a due date to meet, and Yaya wasn't keen on receiving any bad marks. She was a knob now, and with that came a certain amount of responsibility and expectation. She didn't know why the fire demon had been so scare, though she thought perhaps the water in Savage's class may have had something to do with. Regardless, if Danny wasn't going to come to her, she would have to go to Danny.

Her jar of dust bunnies was sitting on the dresser in the main room of her dorm, and she picked it up in passing as she made her way from the room and into the hall. Asking around had given her the fire demon's room number, now it was only a matter of finding it and hoping the other ghoul was home.

A little wandering brought her to Danny's door, and without pause the marid rapped curled knuckles along the wood, firm but not harsh. Glowing eyes trained on the grain of the wood as she waited for some manner of response from within.

The door opened and Hadiyya gave the ghoul on the other side of it a friendly smile. Bringing the jar of bunnies up close beside her cheek and giving it a shake. "I'm Hadiyya from your human studies class, and we have an assignment to work on." The bunnies were given an extra little jiggle before the jar lowered, dark hands curling loosely around the cool glass as it rested against her stomach.

"Would you have time to work on that right?" Her tone was perfectly reasonable and patient. "Or would you prefer to meet up at another time?" By the looks of the fire demon she'd been sleeping, and there was the slightest tinge of guilt for having woken her. Still, it wouldn't have been necessary had Danny stuck around at the end of their lesson to speak with her partner.

"I doubt it will take very long either way." How hard could examining a few balls of dust be? Not hard. Hopefully. She didn't see it lasting more then an hour.

The smile the ghoul was wearing faltered just a bit at the tone the other demoness had fallen into after opening the door, but she decided not to worry over it. If she had indeed woken Danny up from a nap, she could very easily understand how the other ghoul might be a little irked. Hadiyya herself adored napping, it was her favorite hobby, and she wasn't always gracious to those that roused her.

When asked about the heat the marid shook her head, chuckling. "Not at all, it actually reminds me of home." There may have been the tiniest touch of home sickness in her voice, but it lasted no more then a second. There and gone completely. Hadiyya had chosen to go and stay with Sharra and his family during their summer break, and she hadn't made it back to her own home in some time now. It wasn't the time to dwell though.

At the gesture the ghoul glanced down to the lonely little bunny tapping feebly against the glass walls of the jar resting on Danny's desk, head tilting curiously as she watched it. Glancing down at her own vivacious trio. Was it the heat perhaps?

"We need to observe and research the dust bunnies, then turn our findings back in to Professor savage along with the jars and bunnies." Hmm. Yaya glanced around, looking for a place to sit down. "Shall we then?"

"Dead?" Another look at the jar had the djinn frowning, and she stepped over to pick it up, giving the dusty contents a little shake. "Oh no, not quite yet. I think perhaps a little water.." Hadiyya was most certainly not a water demon, as was evident by the twitch of dark fingers over the top of of Danny's jar. A faint rain of crystal clear droplets falling to cover the bunnies in a light dew. "I think perhaps they were dehydrated." Closing her hand the gentle mist stopped, and she held the jar out towards her partner with a smile. The bunnies inside seemed, if not perky, then at least somewhat more alert. She'd either been right, or the water had merely startled them.

"I think perhaps if we put them on a table free of their jars and obverse and record their behavior, that should be adequate research." Glancing down at her own jar, the ghoul smiled at the antics of the little gray bodies within. They'd stacked themselves one atop the other in what she assumed was an attempt to free themselves. It didn't work, but it was cute. She dipped a pair of fingers within the glass to give the top most buddy a little pet.

Cool eyes had flicked up at Danny's retreat along the wall, a dark brow raising curiously. "I'm a marid," she offered helpfully to the stammered questions, smiling peacefully. "It's natural ability."

A glance down to the bunny in Danny's jar had the ghoul chuckling softly, the backs of dark knuckles touching her lips as if to stifle the sound. "Maybe, though if it's been in this heat since class, then dehydration is the better bet." The delicate smile she turned up to Danny hardened just a bit as she noted the wave of that flame tipped tail. "You may relax, I've no intention of trying to snuff out that warm little flicker on your tail." Yaya could be impassive at times, disconnected from those she did not know, but she was never cruel.

Taking a seat in the desk chair, the djinn poured her three bunnies out on the desk top, giggling as they bounced towards her. "No no, go and meet Danny's bunnies." A gentle nudge got them back in the right direction, and once they saw the other bunnies in their jar they darted across the desk top and straight into the tipped jar, clustering around the weaker set and nosing them gently. "They're either compassionate little things," She offered after a moment, her head tipping to one side with a thoughtful grin. "Or they've sensed weakness and intend to exploit it." We're dust bunnies cannibals?

What Danny didn't know was Hadiyya had her own elemental phobia. A byproduct of a field trip gone terribly wrong, where their fears had been ripped from their minds by hallucinogenic fog and made as real. "I will refrain from any further tricks with water if you promise to keep your own element controlled as well." The heat was fine, Hadiyya even liked it, but every so often her gaze would flick down to the tip of Danny's tail. It was a controlled fire, not wild, but some fears ran deep.

Folding her hands on the desk top the djinn dropped her attention down to the bunnies as her three began to pull the weaker lot from the jar. "If you wish. We'll have to turn in our findings to the professor after, as well as the bunnies themselves." Yaya hadn't brought paper, but she had a good memory. she was confident that she could easily recall the important points later and jot them down once she'd returned to her own room.

Lacing her fingers together the djinn rested her chin on top of them. Unless actually asked she wasn't about to share what she'd seen on that beach. Had she been a knob at the time and already had the ability t o summon water to her hands then it likely would have been different, but she hadn't had such powers then.

Gratefully she took the offered paper and reached across for a pen for herself, jotting down a few things.

- Partner's bunnies seem weak and sickly, though perked up a bit when offered water. Subject's tongue is... rather impressive for something of it's size.
- Own bunnies appear chipper and eager to help. One seems oddly enthralled by the sickly one's tongue...

Glowing eyes narrowed as one of her own bunnies appeared to give the veiny tongue a lick. "It's very interesting."

For a very brief instant Yaya thought that long tongue was going to coil around one of her own bunnies and she stiffened, glowing eyes going wide enough to cast blue casts on her cheeks. "Oh!" Happily she was mistaken, though the sudden disappearance of the stapler was a little disconcerting. "My goodness. What a veracious appetite."

She didn't know this Roch, but she had to assume he was a big eater based on that comment.

- Partner's bunny swallowed a stapler whole!

Her own trio of bunnies had backed away from Danny's and appeared to be watching the 4th cautiously.

- Own bunnies are reasonably wary.

The tip of her pen came up to tap thoughtfully at her cheek as she watched the cluster of dusty creatures. "Strange little things."
