~Rivalry? We used to. It would be odd of him to try and steal my students when he doesn't have an element or the rank to teach. I don't know what he's up to. Maybe he's mad at me, and maybe I'm mad at him. I haven't quite figured any of it out, and he doesn't seem to be in the mood to talk about it, either.~
He grinned again. "No problem." He moved to the stove and took down a kettle and other tea-necessary items. "Only the usual blend, eh? I think you're going to like this."

After the time given, Aven starts her ascent. Her wings beat harder to make them rise faster until they pass through the clouds.
"Where I am taking you, no one but your son Didymus and I have been before. This place is my sanctuary and is not to be disclosed to anyone, no matter who they are. Is that understood?"

Giving a sharp look towards the area Seph was in now, Tutsumi then looked towards Nyl again.
"Aye, on normal terms, yes. But...I'll stick with as many elements as you choose I should use or none for that matter, while you can and even use weapons."

Nami sat down on the nearest couch, replaying the last while in her head. A half-chidori was better than she'd expected. Still in a bit of a happy daze, she was able to ignore the heat and the nausea but her hand and wrist continued to twinge painfully. I should get my bandages...and some salve...but my room is so far away... She thought tiredly.

" I don't know where we are anyway, so of course I'd tell no one. I just want to see him..."

"That would hardly be fair. And I dislike an unfair fight. What makes you so eager to spar me now?" She let the water fall back into the fountain. She wasn't really paying attention - she was still so caught up in her thoughts that she hardly noticed anything that was going on.

The kettle whistled after only a few seconds, and he poured four mugs. He handed one to Zyph and took one for himself. The third mug sat on a hotplate and hovered out to Nyl's location, and he took the fourth out to the main room. ~No problem, Zyph. Do you like the tea?~ He smiled at Nami and offered her a mug. "Thirsty? You look worn out."

"Well, as I said...I've never sparred you. The only one around here with the rank to beat me, that I haven't sparred yet, would be you and Neko. And I intend to get to spar Neko soon too."
His eyes watching her carefully, Tutsumi wasn't the same guy that he was before his last death, nor immediately afterwards. He wanted to test out the members who had the ranks.

*trying the tea Zyphier becomes amazed by it.*
~=Yes, yes I do like this tea! It is wonderful.=~ *He smiles and lets his care, worries and problems drift away in a cloud of steam.*

"You've never sparred me for a rather good reason. There shouldn't be competition among those most powerful. I don't recall ever sparring Neko, either."
Nyl gave no indication of whether those three sentences had anything to do with each other.

"It's not competition, it's just testing yourself out against those of equal rank. When a Silent Branch member is sent out, and is a Jounin level...do you send him out against a Kage level? No. You send out a Kage level. Well, I guess you're just afraid you're rusty..."
Turning around slightly, Tutsumi shook his head and started to walk away from her. He had thought better of her, honestly...

She glanced up at him with glassy eyes. "No thank you, I don't like cinammon." She could smell it from where she sat. As an afterthought, she shielded her right forearm, not in the mood to be scolded. "I...would you mind getting me a water though?" She knew there was a bit of persperation collecting at her temple and brow. She wiped at it hastily with her left arm.

Nyl shrugged. "I don't really believe in making comments that try to provoke an opponent into a fight. If it hadn't happened, I might have agreed."

Aven nodded to him then continued to climb upward until she came to an almost abrubt stop. She droped downward until her feet touched solid ground. Without letting go of Reeve she moved forward until the sky disapeared. After that she let him go and folded her wings behind her.
"He's this way."
She pointed to her front right and walked toward the door. A simple way to discribe her sanctuary is a gothic cathedral. Portraits from framous painters of long ago covering the walls, rugs stretching through the hallways nearly covering the entire stone floors, tapistries hanging from walls displaying family crests and battle scenes of a war of angles. Once they got to the door of the roof though, Aven sighed and slowly opened it. By far this was the more glorious room of them all. Every inch of the wall was covered in a storybook fashion. On one side the dragon being defeated by the knight protecting the princess and on the other side was the glorious homecomming of the two after the dragon. Quite a bit of the painted wall was done is gold plate and the rest was finely done down to details of lady bugs in the grass. The crib which the child slept was of silver and finely crafted, accented with gold and rubies. The sheets were of silk and the room was littered with stuffed animals, including many foxes and wolves. As they approched the crib the sound of a sleeping baby got louder. Aven smiled at this and bowed at Reeve.
"I will leave you to your son now. I don't wish to pass out here and chance waking him up. You may sleep here or in any room of this place."
Aven then turned around and headed to her own room and to sleep.
