Lucas glanced down at their clasped hands as she squeezed his. Should he squeeze back, or break the contact? He didn't have the heart to do the latter, so he settled for the quickest mirror of the gesture, then cleared his throat."I'm glad,"he replied, and it wasn't a lie. It certainly seemed like she had a hard time meeting people, so at least he could be of some help livening up her daily life. Even in the moonlight he could see the deep pink in her cheeks.
"I have to confess something,"he suddenly blurted out, and immediately regretted saying it. Then he was fumbling for something, anything to replace the truth:I'm not into girls.He wracked his brain, his thoughts, fighting down a light burning in his own face."I... I mean." Think, idiot, think.So, once again, he blurted out the first thing that came to mind.
"I've been wondering why you won't let me see your eyes. Should I be offended, or is this how you are with everyone?"His chuckle was stiff and strained, the smile he attempted coming off more as a grimace. Well, at least that was one plus-side to her keeping her eyes closed.
Zoey seemed to pause her smile for a brief moment as the question was placed before her. "oh..." It was all she could reply at the moment. Should she tell the truth? At this point she couldn't think of an alibi, especially when Lucas saw she wasn't blind when they firs met. Trapped, she decided to confess, after all he was all but kindness towards her. She owed him at least that much. "Well..." Even with her eyes closed it was hard for her to confess her situation. But she'll have to endure it. "...I-I get really nervous around boys. So far the only person I can see eye to eye is my brother." She turned her head away from him, releasing his hand. "I'm sorry I've been having this problem since I was little... you must think I'm weird... I wouldn't blame you..."
Lucas could see pretty easily that she was debating with herself on the answer to his question. He hadn't meant to put her on the spot like that, and already regretted the idiotic word vomit he'd managed. "Look, you don't have to-..."
But she was already perking up to respond, and if he was honest it certainly hadn't been any kind of answer he'd been expecting. Then again, he hadn't known what he'd been expecting to begin with. At least she couldn't see the curious quirk of his eyebrow, puzzled by the response."Not as weird as my family,"he finally chuckled at the addition to her statement."Everybody's got their own issues. Death knows I've got plenty."
"But your family is kind and wonderful... I don't know why you thought I would feel awkward among them... if anything they are really kind and welcoming." Zoey state, finally getting some of her confidence back as the issue was finally dealt with and the topic was switched back on families. But she would then seem to look worried as Lucas stated he had plenty of issues. "Lucas san, if there's anything I could do to help you, please let me know." The pink haired girl said while hugging onto him. At that moment it felt just natural. Perhaps she was still caught in the moment in which she held Reuben in arms. For some reason she found herself comfortable around him at this moment and so, hugging him felt just right.
Deep within the park. Daniel managed to lead Lily to a fountain. Since most of the attention was centered on the festival he knew they could get some privacy. "Think it's fair enough here." He commented, smiling while releasing her hand which she most likely retrieved at once just as soon as they got there. Questioning about breaking the one and only rule, Daniel chuckled apologetically. "I'm sorry Treinna san, I just thought it would be better if I show you this alone. Please, do not think ill of me." The boy replied as he would soon take off his shoes and socks. Lifting up his pants so they may not get wet as soon as he stepped into the fountain. With his back towards Lily , he removed his shirt, showing quite the collection of scars he had earned through his work. But regardless of the newest scars, it was the oldest one, that would draw the eye's attention. For it had a shrine seal placed above it. It wouldn't take much to notice said scar was cursed. And if being as perspective as a kitsune could be, it could be detected that madness was sealed within that scar. "Long ago, while I was just a first year. I fought my first witch, but I wasn't strong enough to take her out and ended being cursed by her. " He explained, figuring Lily might just want to skip the boring details, honestly, who had time for a long story. "While I thought I had overcome the curse it wasn't until I met you that I realize the curse would never leave. If I hadn't realize that...I would probably had died during my first mission as a graduate... if not during my second or third year..." As he explained, the surface of the water would reflect the chaotic wavelength of his soul. Somehow bound to be at ease but always with the risk of going ham. Perhaps the seal on his back contained it? "That's why I'm not overreacting or exaggerating when I said you saved my life. I owe my life to you, Lily san."
Lily just watched as he would take his shoes and socks off along with his pants being folded up so when he entered the water of the fountain they wouldn't get wet. she sighed crossing her arms only to see him take off his shirt, when he did she noticed the seal on his back she could feel the madness and due to her anti-madness she could feel the burning feeling coming from her hands, as if it was fighting it before it was close. "that explains why i had an uneasy feeling about you the moment you showed up...that things calling out" she muttered as she sighed once more when he explained "I didn't save your life...i rejected you...and i dont understand how you being rejected constantly would help you understand your cursed...you realized it on you own" she told him being blunt in her own opinion "and lets assume your right...why do you claim to love me...most people who owe someone their life dedicate themselves to protect or serve them...they dont love them...its respect" she stated still with her arms crossed "so please explain why you are different from normal people"

"Well I suppose that clears everything." Daniel sighed while standing up, putting his shirt back on and leaving the fountain. "Perhaps I'm just mistaken..." The boy chuckled as he stared at Lily. "Yet it seems you are still too young to understand how you saved me. Maybe it's for the best." With that he extended his hand. "Sorry to take your time. I hope at least you enjoyed the festival."
Lily just gave him a blank stare "Too young?" she thought "Seriously...because you fail to convince me that you love me your gonna state "im too young...your the same damn age making that statement is invalid" she told him sighing "You know...i dont get you what so ever...your dead serious when you were in school and the moment you get back your just useless and unwilling to do things...and to top it off...you make crappy excuses" she told him straight forward.

Lily rose an eyebrow "why...i just simply rejected you again that it..." she told him before sighing "might as well..." she stated as she began to walk home "thats exactly why this endeavor failed for you..." she muttered "you have no convictions"

And there she was, scolding him just like in good old days. The boy chuckled as he nodded. "After you then..." He commented as he proceeded to lead the way for her as soon as she was ready.
Lily just kept walking but stopped "you know...before the whole fighting and you returning, i had a small detour...i somehow ended up 20 years in the future... and i've experienced it before with when i was with the elder of my home village...but when i was there i met one of my friends i've made and she witnessed me get killed...she showed the hatred that father showed when my mother was kidnapped...that was love...from someone im not related too...i also bore witnessed to my own daughter...whom wont be born in the world because the one i was supposed to marry rekindled his love life" she stated as she turned to him "thats why im telling you, that you dont hold love...but obsession" she told him "i've seen it up close and personal" she told him befiore turning back around and leaving to her house ECIT

"So... that's how it's gonna be?" Daniel thought for a moment before chuckling. "Then that means I've died during those 20 years." He chuckled to himself, yet took it to heart when she mentioned obsession. "Quite likely..." Once they would reach her home he would depart as well. [.Exit.]

Sick "Lighting" Takumara
////Third Year Meister////]
Sick laid down on the park bench looking up at the sky. His mind begin to wonder. Even in his third year here. He still haven't found the 'right partner' yet. Sitting up and looking around but nobody was there. Straching his head lightly then laid back down covering his eye's. Toning everything out slowly falling asleep. Just a power nap.
Lucas blinked a little in surprise as she seemed genuinely worried by what he considered a simple, passing statement. Help? None of his issues were really anything she could help with. He knew that. They were all within himself as a person. Nonetheless, he accepted the hug with a little laugh, slinging his free arm around her and clapping her on the shoulder. The way he'd hug a friend.
"Don't worry about me,"he assured her with a playful little jostle. "All my issues are just... general teenage stuff. Embarrassing family, iron-clad dad, trying to find your way in life."Wanting to be liked by everyone, seeking constant attention and affection just to feel like life is worth living, constantly considering running away just so life could be his own. He'd never think of acting upon the latter, and he knew it. His siblings looked up to him, his mother and father loved and needed him, and he had too much that he valued to ever leave it behind. Still, the thought was there.
"Wonder how pissed my folks would be if I stayed out all night,"he mused jovially, his stare as steely as ever as he looked into the sky."I swear, if I had a partner I'd never be home. I'd be out on missions every other night."
