Welcome to Gaia! ::

Without much of a sound, a figure quietly makes his way across the courtyard. The only thing initially noticable about this man was that he was tall, very tall, and wore a black, cloth cloak over himself. His white, cloth and leather shoes poked out the bottom, barely showing under the edge of the cloak. The collars of the cloak were pointed with no hood, and a slightly frilly cloth poked out the neck of the cloak, almost matching the pale skin and hair of the man.

The only word that seemed to fit his face was 'thin'. His had a slightly pointy but rounded face with thin, narrow charcoal colored eyes. His lips were thin and small, as pale as his skin. The color of his skin reminded you of the falling snow more then skin, so pale was he. His hair was a withered white, hanging over his shoulder and down onto the front of the cloak. It was slightly curly and thick and seemed elegantly kept.

Ignoring the various people in the courtyard, he kept a thin smile on his face as he made his way to a bench. He glanced around and pushed open his cloak and sat down, so that it hung off the back of the bench. Underneath he wore a elegant black suit that seemed almost royal in it's appearance. The cuffs were white and seemed glued to his wrists, and the ankles of it were white and gold trimmed. The sleeves of the shirt disappeared into a cloth that hung over both shoulders, black with gold trim with a white symbol on the side of both that seemed runic. His waist was covered by a small white and gold belt that held a black and gold cloth in place that stretched down to his feet and was very wide, also having a symbol on them. The inside of his cloak was a rich red, while the inside of the waist-cloth was white. All in all, he seemed more in place strolling out of a olden castle then in the courtyard of Ria High School.

"Your going to get in trouble if you do that...Change it back." Avoice said. It was Marrow. She was still in a mood but she had come down to see how her friend was doing. "Change it back little brother..."
"Are you feeling better?" Cy asked as she looked at her friend.
"Yes...Oh and the on campus Hospital called while you were gone. Your suppose to take your medicine for your wounds now. So here I brought it down for you." Maroow said as she handed little Cy her medicine. Cy blushed as she swallowed her pill and looked into the bag. It was filled with other stuff to be rubbed onto her body.
"Tahnks but I'll the rest at home." She said as she handed it back to Marr who was going back anyways.
"Okay I'm going...but first change it back Haru..." She stood there waiting for her brother to do so.

Alef smiled to the man as he gave her his name, extending her hand in return. "Alef.. Alef Shizaka, it is a pleasure to meet you sir..." She was always very polite, and seemed friendly. She titled her head to the side a little, thinking he had the aura of someone who was to be respected, even though she was respectfull towards anyone either way. "How is your day going?"

" Hey Marr." Haru said happily that he saw his sister today. " Ok. I get the picture. I'll change it back." Haru used his Alchemy once again to change the bird bath back into a fountain. " I still wish this fountain wasn't here. It gets in my way. But hey, at least I didn't take the fountain out of the ground and chuck it into outer space! You know, they still havn't fixed the hole in that library. Its so sad." Haru said trying to hold back his embarrassment. " But anyway how are you?"

"How about the weather?" he asked, grinning slightly. "I find that talking about the weather is one of the better ways to start a conversation..Also a subtle way to tell a person's mood. A person in a foul mood would pick apart the worst points of the weather, such as the sun is too bright, while a person in a better mood would call is a lovely sunshine." he said. He smirked slightly and motioned to the empty seat next to her. "Mind if I sit?" he asked.

"Ahh..It is a very nice day. Good, sunny weather. Probably filling in for the dismally cold days ahead, I guess." He said. He quietly sat down next to Alef, letting his cloak once again hang over the back of the bench. He leaned back a bit and smiled at Alef, reaching up and pushing a bit of his hair off his shoulders. "So what exactly brought you to this place, if you don't mind me asking?"

"Magic, hmm? I'm quite sorry I didn't taker after my brother and pursue the family's collection of such things. I belive he has become a famous Sage somewhere." James said, lost in a memory for a second. He shook it off slightly, and listened to her. "Yes, it seems quite plesent here." he said, leaning forward on the bench. "Ah..Must be interesting to meet new people here, then. Seems like an endless march of snowflakes to me, so many lively and unique people."
