"Don't interupt my important work, wo- wow..." Taro drifted off as his eyes took in the once unwanted intruder's bust. With sudden energy he jumped out of the tree to pirch on the trunk, giving him the neccessary height above the beauty to inspect her assets better.
"My apologies, milady, I did not mean to be so rude, the work... it is nothing, nothing before the heavenly sight before me now."

Moé was confused.
[[Considering, I think she's unused to compliments.]]
"Uhm, could you please tell me what you did to those books? And who they belong to?"
She laughed.
"I'm a member of the staff here, I dislike littering."

The tengu jumped down from his pirch and knelt before the woman.
"My beautiful maiden, do not fret. Littering? I could do nothing but worship the ground you stand upon." he said with a lordly voice. "The books in question once belonged to an evil tyrant who deserves far worse. But I do not waist, I have shredded them to insulate a winter nest; for this tengu has no mate to share warmth with in the months to come..."

Moé paused.
"Oh, they belonged to a tyrant? Then they didn't belong to Sir, then."
[[/oblivious]]
"Oh, you're alone? That's sad. Maybe you can find a female tengu somewhere! I, uh, can't think of any... female tengu... but there has to be females of any species..."
The books that were mauled were labeled things like 'COMPONENTS OF EVERY CURE' and 'SCIENTIFIC OMNIBUS OF NOTES ON ALCHEMY'. They were rare-looking, and looked like they've been out of print for eons.
[[Uh-oh...]]

"If you ever act toward myself with such zeal to hurt myself, I will make sure you will not survive." Caleb said coolly. Caleb went back down, to his surprise, a couple of his time-worn books had disappeared. "Do you know the meaning of this?" He said as he walked up the stairs, the smell of lavender drifting around himself, and seeing only a portal. He put back on his pitch black robe before going into the mysterious hole. He saw that bird-man from a few days back, and his student. "What seems to be the trouble here?" He asked Moé.

Moé paused.
"Oh, this tengu here says that an evil tyrant who deserves having his books shredded owned these books, and that he's shredding them to keep warm during the winter. I don't now why he's kneeling, but he says that I'm a figure from heaven or something. Maybe he knows that I'm a messiah, but it's creeping me out."
She blinked.
"I was suspicious that the books were yours, but you aren't an evil tyrant."
she looked at one of the books.
"Wait... that's one of the out-of-print books I time-traveled to get..."

Caleb crouched down and picked up a slip of paper, reconsigning what book it was from. Thesis of the great work, page 206. He stood back up. "What is the meaning of this..." He stood back up and towered over the bird-man.

Moé suddenly snapped into action, and held Caleb's arm.
"H-He shredded up your books out of spite for you! Turn him into fast food, Sir! Turn him into a feather duster! He destroyed tokens of my love."
She let go of his arm, and grinned.
"...any extra weapons you want me to get? I have a mallet, several guns, and some cannons! Oh, oh, and a soldering gun that shoots out hot glue."
[[She's PO'd too.]]

Caleb pulled away from her. "Leave this to myself. This is my work." He looked down to the birdman. "I sense that this cannot be solved with words. Stand."

Moé giggled.
"Any time, Sir."
She waved, and then decided to watch form a safe distance.
[[oh, gotta go. post after me so I can reply at 6Am, will ya? :3]]

The tengu squawked at the sudden change in the beautiful woman's demeanor and the appearance of arch nemesis. Quickly, he took to higher branches, out of reach from the high potential of harm. "Love...? You can not possibly mean..." An expression of absolute shock was written on his face as he looked from Caleb to Moé, only to settle on the former. Oddly, his astonishment crumbled into admiration.
"Another one of yours? I am impressed, I had no idea you were such a lady killer... but perhaps that expression is a bit misleading... Was your other mate to rebellious for you? Or maybe you still keep her around..." A sudden look of alarm filled his eyes, "Where is she... in the shadows, planning to attack?" He began to look around his surroundings spastically.

[Sorry about leaving earlier, my computer was having problems with Gaia... I couldn't load or refresh the pages, so I tried my Mac, but it was the same. Did any of you have that problem?]

((no.))
"What is this you are telling me?" Caleb said. "Mate? Preposterous! I would never have relations with a student of mine." Caleb looked up the tree. "Now, why did you destroy my property?"

Miss Lovely Rita Lucy used a small psychic shield to deflect the fireballs, and deflected all of her attacks with her forearms. "An ifrit? Huh. I may have just joined this school, but..." She unleashed a horde of will-o-the-wisps. "..surely an ifrit is safe form burns."
