Tristian noticed Opheliah and looked to Trance. He frowned and shrugged some, laying back across the grass. Trance...Why do you think people spend spare time here?

Phelia noted the blonde who'd seen her with muted interest. She'd never seen him before. But he was already with a girl. A problem she seemed to be having quite frequently.
She finished dusting the instrument off and went about tuning, patiently, checking chords to get that perfect harmony.

After moving all his stuff in, Saber finally pulled away from his sister. The manor he was staying at was a bit crowded so he decided to go out. Though, being a bit anti-social, Saber opted for a deserted place...the cemetary fitting him rather well. He had a single 10-inch dagger with him, clipped onto his belt in the back. Without a sound, he curved his way around different grave stones and such, casually glancing down to see who was buried in different spots.

Ophelia heard movement below and peeked over the side of the roof. Another boy was walking through the tombs. She noted the knife and, again, thougth of Lucius. She shook her head and sighed, sogtly, settling back on the concrete roof of the gazebo, playing chords, randomizer in her brain spinning for something that she could remember how ti play.

As he walked, Saber stopped dead when he heard the sound of a guitar or something. He thought about pulling out the dagger...but only heard his sister''s voice yelling at him. Shaking his head, Saber glanced around to find out where the music was coming from. It didn''t take long for him to see the teal-colored hair of a girl playing her guitar. "I guess I''m not the only who likes graveyards and such..." Deciding that this girl might be someone he could have things in common with, he slowly walked over to her. When he spoke, his voice was low not not as low as a whisper. "You play well, miss."

Ophelia looked down from the roof of the gazebo structure, pausing and tilting ehr head as she looked down at him. It was, of course, the boy with the dager. My, he did remind her of Lucius, ever courteous.
"They're only chords, but thank you all the same. I ahven't played in quite a long time."

Saber rubbed at the back of his head. Cords or not, it was still better than what he could do. He was rather artistically and musically challenged. "Oh, well, it was still nice to me." Saber...you suck at making conversation. He made a face at himself then glanced back up at her. "Er...I'm sorry for bothering you. I'll leave you be." He bowed politely then turned to walk away, muttering under his breath about his own awkwardness.

"You aren't bothering me," Sshe blurted out, rather hastily, then blushed, scooting to the edge of the roof, looking down at him.
"Would you . . . would you like to come up and sit with me?"
She chewed her lip, lightly, looking down at her hands, an the guitar resting in them, shyly.

Saber stopped then looked back to her. No one, other than his sister, had really invited him to sit with them. He gave a small smile, not shy or anything, but something rare. "Ok...sure." After climbing up beside her, he noticed the slight blush across her cheeks. He said nothing of it, though.

She smiled and held a hand out to shake, turning to half-face him, settling back on her heels against the slope of the roof.
"My name is Ophelia. Are you new around here?"

Lightly taking her hand, Saber nodded. He felt a little odd taking a girl's hand in his but he just blamed it on never being around others very often. "Yeah...I just moved in with my sister. The place was too crowded, though, which is why I came here." He rubbed his head again. She didn't ask why you were here so no rambling... "Oh, an I'm Saber. It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Opheliah."

"Saber."
She nodded gently, slipping her hand back and continuing to tune.
"It's not really that crowded in my house. Just a litl of vibes going around I don't feel like catching. I came ou here to think, but, really, I hate being by myself. Which is od, because I hate crowds, too."
She laughed a little anxiously and started to strum more determinedly, definitly a song somewhere in there.

As he listened to the tunes, he nodded again. He disliked crowds as well but he never minded being alone. He had just about grown up without others around. "It's nice here," he started, his voice still low and calm, "A cemetary is a good place to come to...yet you would never be alone." Saber looked out at all the grave stones and tombs. "You are surrounded by many..."

" . . . and not a single one can hurt you."
She murmured, more to herself than to him.
She began to pick out, gently, 'Paint it Black' on the strings, lost in thought for a second and hitting a sharp not, but returning her focus to the strings quickly.
