Welcome to Gaia! ::

His voice was so low that she had to lean in closer to him just to be able to hear. Even though she caught most of it, the only thing that stuck out in her mind was him calling her cute which caused her to forget everything else. She felt her ears burn with embarrassment and sat back. "Here, I have something that might help." Pushing off her desk, she walked over to a small cabinet that sat at knee height. Dropping to her knees, she opened it and pulled out a bottle of water. Dusting off her knees as she stood up, she smiled and held out the water for him. "Just take it easy. It's not good to lose that much blood all at once, trust me." Her smile was bright as usual but somehow her words held a secret meaning.

Looking from him to the bottle, to him again, she huffed. Vexed, she scratched her head as she thought about what she could do. There weren't many options when one did come to mind. It was probably the worst of them all, but it would be fun anyways! Setting the bottle down on her desk, she beamed a smile as the air began to feel tight and heavy. The hairs on her arm began to stand up, pulled by some ionized force. From her feet, sparks began to crack and hiss as they snaked up her body, enveloping her in a bright, wild light of lightning. Once it had subsided, she stood before him with a small, blank piece of paper being held between her index and middle finger.

Bringing the piece of paper to her lips, she smiled against it as she whispered something inaudible. Instantly glowing script began to write itself on the paper to her speaking voice and a she held out the paper. It began to glow even brighter before it suddenly dissipated and was left with a small, nymph like creature floating in the air. Its sea blue skin glittered in the sunlight, long, pointed ears twitching and antenna dangling atop its head. With a soft roll of its voice, it looked over at Lillianna with curiosity.

"Hello Tiere." She greeted the creature with a tired smile. It chirped at her in a happy greeting. "Tiere, Mr. Nura here seems to be a little fatigued from blood loss. Could you possibly help him out?" Tiere floated over to him with a curious look in its white, pupiless eyes.

Tiere hovered around his face, spinning circles around him as if sizing him up. "This is Tiere. He's a nymph...well I guess more like a sprite." Finally he stopped, floating dead center in front of his face. There was another chirp before Lillianna's eyes grew wide with happiness. "Oh you can!? That's great!" She clasped her hands together excitedly and rocked back and forth on the balls of her feet.

"Tiere is really good at fixing people." She smiled, knowing exactly what was about to happen. Tiere zipped over to the unopened water bottle and tore the cap off magically. Rhythmically moving his arms, the water began to collect into a ball above the top of the bottle. She had been forced to suffer at the hands of the little guy's tricks for a long time, it was nice to make someone else suffer from it for once.

"Oh, he's not going to hurt you." She chuckled lightly as her finger sparked with lightning. Gently she tapped the little nymph, sending a small jolt of electricity through him to alleviate the illusion. She was catching on quickly how the gear was working. "He's only going to help with your fatigue so there's no need for you to be so defensive Osore."

Tiere scuddled around in the air, a little upset that someone he was trying to help would be so arrogant as to try and harm him. With a glare from his pure white eyes, he threw the water ball at Rihan's face. Lillianna laughed happily, at the action. She remembered when he used to completely throw her into oceans of water to help her. It took so long for them to form an actual friendship.

Tiere floated back over to her, huffing and puffing angrily at the ungrateful child. With a tender smile, she brought her finger up to his back and moved her hand along until the tiny nymph disappeared in a bright light and a 'pop'. Lillianna smiled fearlessly down at him. "I would never do such a thing." Not much longer after she had sent Tiere back home did her gear deactivate, returning her to her normal, comfier clothes.

"But I must ask a serious question Mr. Nura." As he was taller than her, she looked up at him. "For someone who has such a hostile Sacred Gear, he seems very protective of you to attack people he doesn't know. Why do you think that is?" It wasn't really for her own curiosity, but more for him to think about. Crossing her arms under her chest, she leaned back against her desk feeling tired again. He was nothing but a small thing, but that really tired her out.

A singular hand came up to her chin and rubbed it thoughtfully. The charade of her bubbly personality seemed to shift a little as she truly thought long and hard on what he had told her. Even though she was not at all trying to be threatening, she had been a very different person before now. The aura around her darkened quickly without even thinking about it. Her mind drifted elsewhere, not at all seeming bothered by the fact that he had seen some of her memories. She wasn't ashamed of her past so there was really no need to be worried that a student knew anything.

"I see..." Her brow furrowed a little and she took in a deep breath, exhaling softly. Almost instantly the air changed again as she looked up and smiled. "Well you need at least one confidant here." She paused and walked around her desk, flopping back in her chair. Her hair bounced around her shoulders as she did so, bangs falling into her face as she reached over, sticking her finger into the emptied water bottle. "Might as well be the Guidance Counselor." Placing her chin in her hand, the empty bottle echoed against her head, having forgotten it was on her finger.

Her eyes widened at his statement. "You've been living on campus this whole time? Why on earth would you do a silly thing like that. It's dangerous after all." She sat back in her chair tapping the bottle, still attached to her finger, against her thigh. This was a terrible thing! She couldn't stand by while one of her students was living destitute. But she was in a pickle. It wasn't allowed for something like that. Teacher student relations, of any kind, were prohibited. Maybe if she brought up the case to Desdemona and Cole directly they would listen. The chances were unlikely but she needed to do something!

Looking up at him she gave him a half hearted smile. "That is something I would have to speak with Ms. and Mr. Phoenix about. It's not a decision I can make on my own. I certainly don't want you living like you have been though." She was being honest. It wasn't her call on something like that.

While in a serious, deep conversation with Mr. Nura, the rapping at her door broke her attention quickly from the tense situation. "Oh my! Who on earth could that be?" Quickly she jumped to her feet, the water bottle still hanging off her finger. "One moment please." She called from behind the door. Stumbling out from behind her desk, she stubbed her toe. "Ah! Ow, ow, ow, ow,!" Lillianna cried out in pain, her eyes watering. Hoping around, trying not to step on her pained foot, she lost her balance, tumbling over. She shrieked as she fell to the floor, knocking over the chair sitting in front of her desk for students to sit in. Sniffling, she touched her hand to her head. "C-Come in..." She gave up trying to open the door for them, a bump forming on her head.
