Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Seems silly to leave chakra-draining mud lying around like that, but whatever. And Tut, he meant remember the silly dirt because he thought Nyl was walking in it.

Never said she was touching the ground, though.))

((Ah, okay then Nyl. Thought he meant the barrier since that would have been drained by the mud as well.))

Sucking in a deep breath of air as he leaned backwards slightly and away from the staff, Tutsumi continued to keep his eyes closed as he uttered with his usual voice yet one that seemed more demanding.

"No."

Gil chuckled to himself,....It was truly funny,.... Ishira was beside herself with worry,.... And it seemed Tutsumi was becoming a victim of her anxiety,....

As he looked at them, he couldn't help but smile,..... It really was like old times,....He realized how much he missed the dojo, just by looking at them,.....Too many things had changed,....He was willing to live with those deviations, but he really hoped things would just calm down,.....He'd never been the type of person who likes drama,....

Looking over to Nyl, Tutsum simply rose a finger to her as he then looked up towards Ishira who had pounced on him. He slowly moved up towards her and kissed her softly on the lips before sighing.

"The fight is not yet over because people's minds have openly been cracked. They need to be shattered open and then polished. This Academy, your home, needs people who are willing to fight...not only to the death but with regular spars like we did back in the day...it was fun then. I'm simply trying...to bring back the fun. Diplomatic talks with most of the 'elders' here I'm sure would fail if I tried. So this is my next best option. To get them to hate by guts so bad...they will want to do things together and train instead of getting fat off of tea and cookies...or whatever it is that they eat now. I hope you can respect me for that."

Particles of his being would quickly evaporate from under her, only to clump back together on the side of Nyl. His eyes were serious now, but still showed no signs to kill just yet unless his attacker tried it first.

"Nyl. This attack is not just for you. I hope you have heard what I told Ishira and take it to heart. Now, let out fight begin."

Nyl held up one hand; deep red scars were still visible on her other arm from the fight in Neko's office.

"I will tell you right now that I am in no condition to fight. If a fair spar is what you want, you won't be getting one from me today. If an unfair one is what you had in mind, I can hardly stop you.

"What I want, before any sort of fight begins, is the straight truth. I don't think you came here to challenge everyone. You had specific people in mind when you returned. And unlike you, I believe that we could get quite far with conversation, if both of us would stop veiling what we mean behind other words.

"So I propose we talk. Solve whatever problems there appear to be." She smirked slightly. "After that, if you want a spar...I'd be hard pressed to refuse."

Raising his eybrow slightly towards Nyl's injuries, Tutsumi nodded slightly but was then caught off guard by the ball of light Ishira had sent his way. The ball sent him forward just enough to leave the edge of the roof in a plummet and down he fell. A soft crackle and then all those who were outside would see would be Kai's mud on the ground.

Ishira almost laughed but instead her wings took off and she went down after Tut. She grabbed his arms before he hit the ground and her wings scraped against a tree. She sighed and used a bit of light energy to pull him up to her level.
"That was a healing spell, you didnt have to dive off of the roof like that." She said in a serious tone, trying to hold back the urge to laugh.
