Ophiuchus paused for a moment and shrugged, before he went back to Lin's back. She was siting down, so he to lean over a bit and turn his hands different to work around the back of the chair. It would hurt Lin in the long run if the massage wasn't don properly - for that, Ophi need to get along her whole spine, not just the upper half of her back.
"Really, Lin.... If you can't last through this, you're going to be in trouble next time."

"Why?" Ari asked, "What did he... you do that was so bad that you had to change your name? Surely... not feeling anything isn't worth it?" Ari felt numb inside. Wow, she was stupid. If there was some sort of prize for rotten judgment, she supposed she'd won it. So all yesterday he played with her?! Great. Ari the blind Idiot. Evermore had been 100% right. She laughed bitterly.

Ares was actually... glad that Evermore had taken his hand. It was not something he would have expected, but nonetheless, it felt rather nice. He did not let himself hold her hand too tightly, but he did not let his hand be like a floppy dead fish. He shrugged at Akira's question, unsure of how to answer.

Lin gasped again as she felt her professor's hands move lower on her back. He was near the small of her back now. She knew that this was how massages needed to be done, but considering the fact that she still had a crush on her professor, this was quite awkward for her. Not that she wanted it to stop anytime soon, though.
Her eyes popped open, though, when she heard Ophiuchus mention 'next time'.
"Next time, sir? You were serious about doing this again?"
Well duh, Lin! He was a healer! Of course he'd do his best to heal someone!

He could sense something flicker in her aura, anguish perhaps. Maybe even anger. This was completely the opposite of what he wanted to happen. "Now now, hold on here. Let's not jump to conclusions here of what I am, who I am, and how you are involved in my life. Can you let me finish before you make your final judgment of both us Brandts?" Musica was on the verge of begging, and he wasn't about to let her walk out before she knew it all. Then she could do what she like, because as with each one before he'd soon get over her. The fact is if she stays with him, that he'll continue having this feeling he is for her. "I guess the best place to start would be my heritage, before you know my past acts of hatred. Have you not yet come to a guess?"

Ever arched an eyebrow at Akira's question and looked down at her joined hands with Ares. She knew what it looked like, but she wasn't going to move her hand away. Even though Ares was an egotistical jackass, he had actually been quite kind to her lately. So, she would help him if he needed it. He could quickly squeeze her hand if he was feeling bad.
And plus, despite how much she denied it, it wasn't exactly a horrible thing to hold Ares' hand. In fact, she liked it quite a bit.
But she scoffed at what Akira said and rolled her eyes. "There's nothing new going on, Akira. I swear. And you know that I can't lie to you. Now, about those damn girls...."
She scowled as she thought about the three witches. "You know that I'm the master of revenge, so just tell me when and where, and I'll take care of them.

Feeling the need to hide, Ari put her glasses back on. They were a safety net for her. "... I have two, both are male. I'm guessing either Loki or Baldr," she said, shrugging. "That's the best I got!" She sighed and tried to bring back that feeling of zen she'd had during meditation. She pushed her glasses farther up the bridge of her nose.

The professor snorted with amusement. "Of course, I'll have to. As long as there is a Lin running around hunched over books, there will be a Professor Akakios to end up having to work her kins out afterward. You're going to be out of luck when you graduate, you know."
Sine he had reached the small of her back, and that was as far as he could reach when she was sitting down, he began to work his way back up, increasingly aggressive.

Akira shook her head; that wasn't much of an answer at all!!
"No, i mean...A lot's been going on obviously, if you've gone from calling him all the names you told me, to holding his hand!! Obviously, you've been leaving me in the dark lately..." she was referring to all the name calling: Jackass, idiot, pervert, dangerous, annoying...Not something said War God would want to hear, hence the code.
The Dog Hanyou grinned at the thought of revenge, but shook her head again to shake away the little voice in her head saying "do it, do it, do it!!!"
"Nah, it's alright...Well, for now anyways. I'm not in the revenge kind of mood. Besides, we were just arguing, they didn't even try anything this time, so it's all good."

Musica snarled his nose at the idea of Loki being his father. He was nothing more than a pathetic excuse for a pest. And his father's killer, which made it all the worse. "Well Baldr is correct, I am the son of the God of Light and Beauty. As well as Odin's grandson. Not that it would mean anything to him. As for Loki he doesn't even deserve the title as a God. He killed my father, and if it wasn't for his being put to exile I would have killed him myself. At least that's what Nikolaus would have done." He left that little hint as to how he used to be. The murderous man who was everything but on the same mass scale as Hitler. And seeing someone just like him do that caused great change in him.

Despite the pain in her back, Lin smiled at her professor's words. His words actually warmed her entire body. He wanted to be around her for a long time... But just as a professor, she had to remind herself.
"Actually, Professor, I am already in the process of setting up my collegiate program here at Bai Ching. So, you could still visit me here, sir, if you wish, after I graduate."
She couldn't speak any further, though. Ophiuchus's hands were moving aggressively up her back and the sudden return of pressure to her tender muscles caused her to shriek slightly. She forced herself to remain in place, though. She had never failed one of her professor's challenges before, and she wasn't going to start now.
Though, with each time her professors hands dug into her back, Lin let out a very soft yelp.

After Kindra had noticed that Ari had left she decided that she had meditated long enough. When she looked up at the clock in the room she noticed that she didn't much time to practice with her sword before classes started. So she quickly put up the mat and rushed out of the room and out towards the lake, while not really paying any attention to what was going on around her. Once she reached the lake she unbuckled the strap that held the sheath to her back and let it fall into the ground. She caught the sword before it could fall to the ground and then unsheathed it. After she set down the sheath she stood up and got into her stance and slowly went through each movement to warm up. Then with her powers she turned the sheath into a kind of practice dummy and began launching attack after attack upon it.

Ever scowled at Akira's accusation that she was lying to her. In fact, it down right pissed her off.
"Akira... I'm... not.... LYING! Nothing has changed between Ares and I!"

Ari paused, her forehead creased. ”Wanting revenge for the death of your father isn’t bad… anyone would want justice,” she said softly, thinking of her own father, who was to this date an unknown. ”Were you always murderous?” she asked hesitantly, not wanting to push him if he didn’t want to go there. "I'm sorry," she whispered, putting a gentle hand on his knee.

"I was murderous once I was about fifteen or sixteen, and that was about the time my abilities awakened. Then my mother told me who my real father was. I was stricken with a desire to eradicate those I didn't deem worthy of life. I left home at that point, not wanting to kill my step dad who I felt that way about. My mother was fine to me in my eyes, and since Bladr deemed her beautiful enough as well I suppose I was not wrong." This was a touchy subject for Musica, though Luli and Bo had already heard it. Though they'd been working for two years before they heard it. And that was a year ago. To tell it to someone he'd only known for two days was extremely amazing.
