Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mitsu lightly shook her head to the feline's apology. "There's no need to apologize." Taking up her tea she cast a small glance to the vampire but only blushed and looked away when he winked at her. That felt awkward for some reason. "It's hard to say what you'll get as an answer, I could have easily said no." Which was true, it was possible that she didn't have haunting dreams or things she tried to forget, but the sad truth of the matter was that she did.

Following behind the feline, Mitsu took a light sip of her tea. It was sweet from the berries and didn't really require sugar of any sort. As far as conversation though Mitsu was at a loss. Usually she just became part of the conversation and didn't have to come up with the topic. Trying to think she sorted through what would be something good to talk about. "Well, we can always get to know each other a little better." Mitsu offered. "I only know a couple of things about you, maybe we can share a few things together? Like....what do you like to do in your free time?"

Mitsu wasn't entirely surprised that they wouldn't be staying in the cafe. Riyo probably wanted to keep moving to stay awake for one and no doubt didn't want to spend more time with the vampire she had already snapped at. He was only being nice but Mitsu was quickly learning you tread lightly when doing so.

"Oh that's right, I remember hearing a violin when I came over one time." Mitsu recalled the tune that had been played her mind fitting the notes together in her head. "You play rather well, you should join the music club!" Though honestly Mitsu hadn't done much with the music club herself. Mainly she played her keyboard within the safety of her room.

Walking out the cafe door, Mitsu waited for Riyo to step up beside her before she continued walking. She did her best to match the feline's strides but her legs weren't nearly as long. "Oh, I play the piano...or keyboard rather." It was similar but hardly the same. Hitting the keys felt different and while the sound was very similar Mitsu could hear the subtle difference. "I like to read too or sometimes I go to the fitness club to exercise." Or train, which was what she had been doing a lot more recently.

As Riyo didn't seem to peg her as a music person....Mitsu really couldn't peg Riyo as someone who would want to work out. It seemed like an odd fit but she didn't voice that thought. Instead she ran with the question given her.

"I joined not long after I got here. I thought it would be a way to help me...improve. When I got here I really couldn't do much of anything." Though it was a wonder if that had changed all that much. She still wasn't strong, she still couldn't protect her friends. "What made you join?"

Mitsu couldn't say she was exactly out of shape, she had strength in her legs but that was it really. She hoped training would improve her balance and coordination as well as strengthen other parts of her body. So far it was working for the most part. If only it could help improve her sense of direction because as of current she was a little lost. The lycan had been so focused on her cup of tea she had forgotten to seek out landmarks to watch out for.

Hearing her name though Mitsu looked up toward Riyo before following her gaze out over the hill. It took her a moment to think on the question, her mind going over what had happened during the field trip, what she had learned. She even took a moment to glance around to see if any boogeymen were nearby. This was something they had been warned about, they weren't to speak of it...but still. "I am..."

Mitsu's face had turned strangely serious as she looked at the cat demon before she focused on her cup of tea. "I...really don't think its a matter of 'if'. From what I learned and from what the horsemen said its only a matter of when." It seemed a little ominous, even for Mitsu to say but the fact of the matter was Invictus said they sought out to end them. The hunters had seemed rather determined to do so and she wouldn't be surprised if they tried another attack. "But...I think we can prepare ourselves. I think we can be ready."

The school was right in front of them but Mitsu wasn't really in a hurry to return. This had been a nice walk, rather quiet and calming. Her attention turning to the feline a smile started to form on her face. "Friends make you stronger. Our group had its bumps and troubles but we were there when it counted."

The fact that Riyo saw them as a sort of strength was rather warming. She had come to school with a completely different outlook that was for sure. It might not have been that she was changing though but finally able to relax and show how she really felt. "I wish I could have been there more for you...for all of you. I will work harder. We all will I'm sure." Hel had taught her the value of improving, though in a very harsh way. Still, it was knowledge earned and Mitsu would be there to fight with and for her friends.

Finishing off her tea Mitsu followed suit and threw her empty cup in the trash can. It seemed they were heading back to the demon dorms already though a curious thought hit her as Riyo mentioned making their bests a little bit better.

"Maybe once everything settles and everyone is rested perhaps we can train together." She wasn't sure about actually sparring, she had yet to try it. Safe to say she was still a little afraid to fight, she had lost her head in the canyon and was afraid to do that again. It was because she was reckless that Shun had been injured.

There was a nod as Riyo seemed to accept her proposal to train together. Maybe they could learn something from one another. "Yes, I would definitely say get some rest first. There's no need to push yourself right now."

If only Mitsu knew what others had in store for her. The lycan was so unprepared for it all. "If you continue to have trouble sleeping you should let me know. Maybe we can figure something out that will ease your mind so you can sleep. Maybe music?" Music often helped her after all.
