Osi nodded, but was still nervous with the growing crowd. Towns were one thing, but other Nins that werent really human were another. Osi was seriously beginning to wonder if she was the only human here and what that would mean for her. If anything she would learn about these...things, unsure if she should be calling them demons..
"If you dont mind me asking, but how many.... non human species actually train here?" She was figetty, but if she learned the answer maybe she would feel a little bit better. She still hadnt looked away from Kwubara, some how finding herself calm when she had her sight on him. Being mostly blind had its quirks but if people didnt know they tended to take her display as ignoring them. She was asking Irianna but she wasnt looking at her. Figuring that she should show who she was talking to she turned her eyes to the feathered woman. At that moment she jumped and this time couldnt help but look when another new person came to the Dojo.

The Fury walks forward, making plenty of noise so that she doesn't surprise the newcomer. She waits until she's noticed, then puts a hand on the young woman's shoulder.
"Be calm, Osijira. Be calm." Iri herself begins to exude the emotion. She calms her inner being, intending for the emotion to catch on. Fear begets fear, but calm can do the same thing.
Up on the deck of the Radiance, Xavier catches on to what Iri is trying to do. The male Siren closes his eyes, and begins to emit a sort of hum. Osijira would not be able to hear it. The pitch is too low for human ears to detect. It's a Siren's trick, and this noise will put weak-willed, lazy people to sleep. In Osi's case, it should help to calm her nerves. Lenore, Dawn, and Adrianne just continue to watch.
"From my experiences, most of the people who attend this academy are not human. You seem to be the minority here. It doesn't matter, though. Being inhuman doesn't make us bad. I don't think it makes us any more dangerous, either. You have no reason to be nervous."
Iri doesn't take into account the fact that Osi doesn't look at Iri as she talks. She thinks she already knows the problem. Bad eyesight isn't necessarily a problem, though. Sometimes, the loss of one sense can make the other sense extraordinary.
The Fury looks up as Reeve approaches. A warm, welcoming gesture crosses her features. Then she nods her head in the direction of the Radiance, as though asking him his thoughts on the airship.

Kwubara watched as the girl talked to Iri. It was nice to see that she wasn't being punished for his actions. He gave her a comforting smile when she looked at him. There was no reason to make her uneasy when she was in a safe place.
After she turned from him, Kwubara started to eye those on the ship. They were studied to the best of his ablitity considering the distance. They seemed to be the kin of Iri. Possible Furies or other winged creatures. At least their auras were pleasent, except for one. It was a little twisted but not as bad as could be. Then the man's aura flickered and was followed by a low buzzing noise. He couldn't make it out but was sure the man was the cause. It made him a little uneasy not to know what the man was doing but there was nothing her could do.
It seemed to the man that there was no need to be around any more. Slowly and silently, Kwubara started to head for the forest. Iri had everything under control. "Farwell, Osi." He called out to the girl.
(Sorry for taking so long.)

"Well, what have we here?" he asks, hiding his relief at her seemingly not wanting to tan his hide.

Osijira startled when Irianna started to her, but she didnt move. She allowed Irianna to touch her and smiled in surprise when the woman seemed to change the emotion around them. Her body relaxed and she was beginning to wonder if the woman knew of her condition....
"So... I have a lot to learn then..." Her heartbeat picked up for a second when Irianna confirmed that she was a minority but it quickly died down which was an odd feeling. She looked around for a moment, thinking that maybe something else had changed but she didnt notice a thing except that Kwubara was walking away. Frowning she pulled away from Irianna and moved herself in front of him before he was too far away.
"Thank you." She said, bowing slightly. She touched her charm so that she would be able to clearly see Kwubara as she stood up straight and then put both her hands in between them. She flipped her hands up and tilted her head, waiting for him to take them.

Kwubara was a little suprised when Osi cut him off. It had seemed that she was only using him to find the academy. "You are quite welcome. If you need anything just ask" He replied as he bowed himself. Carefuly, he placed his hands in hers. There was no point to not trust her. She had done everything he asked, so he would do whatever she wanted. If she were to ever ask a favor he would gladly accept. He started to look into her eyes. It was nice to to see something different then the freaks that normaly hung out around the place.

Iri smiles at Osi and Kwubara, then looks away. Whatever the girl is doing is for them. Besides...
The Fury looks at Reeve with a sly, one-sided grin. Still grinning, she walks toward him. Iri takes advantage of the high heels on her feet and lets her hips sway a little more than usual as she walks, giving her body language some attitude. For a moment, it seems as though she might be about to chew some a**. Then the grin turns into another genuine smile, just as Iri gets in range, and she enthusiastically hugs Reeve, letting her cheek brush against his.
"I missed you, dork! Are you alright?" Iri keeps Reeve in her embrace as she talks, not really caring to let go unless he pulls away.

"Oh, I'm just fine," he replies, wrapping an arm around her. "I just...figured someone had to put some money into rebuilding the place. Little did I know airships were all the rage..."

Osi smiled and nodded, feeling her face once again warm and only wishing she had more control of that. She glanced down for a moment at their hands and then at him. He would be a goos Allie, even if there were other things going on he seemed very trust worthy. The energies stirred in her and she went back to what she had originally planned. Opening her inner gates she spindled the energy he had given her into her hands. She didnt push it to him, knowing that wouldnt be a smart idea but she left it there in her hands for him to take.
"If you need anything from me as well, feel free to find me. I may not stay in more then one place too long but you already found me once im sure you can do it again." She took in the sight of him while she could. Memorizing the way he looked and the feel of his energy so that if she ever needed to find him she could. Taking in a deep breath she took in his scent, putting it at the back of her mind for when she needed it. "Do you wish for you energy back? Its there if you want it." She said in a low tone, not sure if he wanted the others to know it was his.

Kwubara smiled in reply to Osi's smile. Smiles are one of the easies things in the world to spread. Kwubara started to watch as she spilnled the energy. It was facinating to see how she did it. "I'll be sure to do that." He said to her. He decided to produce a vial. When you can do what he can, things like that become easy. Carefully, he condenced the energy, forcing it from her hands and into the vial. Kwubara gently took Osi's left hand and tied the vial to her wrist with some thread. "You might want to hold on to it. It could come in handy." He wispered to her as he took a step back. The man gave her a wink before he contiuded on his way. There are things he needed to get done.

Iri pulls back just enough so Reeve can see her expression. That sly grin is back. She's been up to something.
"Actually, I've been working on that, too. The air ship is part of the plan. Lenore and Dawn didn't just steal the ship and it's supplies. They got our portions of the trust fund our great grandmother left to us. The head of the clan may send out a few assassins to get it back, but I think I can handle anything she throws at me."
On the deck of the Radiance, Adrianne stares down at her daughter with wide eyes. Now that's certainly unusual. Lenore has stopped looking at Kwubara and wishing for a fight. She tilts her head much like her sister and just looks confused. That man looks familiar, though. As for Dawn, her jaw drops. Maybe she was wrong? Maybe Iri does have a love life. She always thought the girl too shy. Xavier just smiles. He remembers the young man. When he met that one, he was a crow trying to outfly an eagle hell bent on tearing him to pieces.
Iri, however, seems to have forgotten that her family is within sight.

He nods his head in a good-naturedly mocking, yet respectful way. "Is there any way I can help you, Headmistress?"

Face warmed she nodded and then watched at he suddenly had a vial. Her brows scrunched, not understanding why a vial was needed but not asking. He had his reasons and she waited to see what they where. She made an O with her mouth as she watched him take the energy and put it into the vial. How interesting she thought, she didnt know energy could be worked that way. As he went to tie it to her she moved closer knowing that it would make it easier and then started to think how she would be able to suppress the feel of this energy when she was out on missions. Her mind ticked to its old ninja ways until he was done and spoke again. She opened her own mouth to speak but he winked at her and then moved around her. Blinking a few times her hand went to the vial and she turned to watch him leave. "Good bye Kwubara.." She said before turning just in time to hear the other man cal Iri the Headmistress. "You are the Headmistress?" she said her eyes wide and then she went into a more proper bow. One knee to the ground and her down she stayed there like she knew she should.
"I am very sorry i didnt show you the respect you should have..." Osi said as she started to wonder why the other Nin hadnt done the same thing...

Iri sticks her tongue out at Reeve. Obviously, nothing about her or the way she views herself has changed. She never did like formalities.
"Oh no, don't you start that. I don't wanna go by anything other than 'Iri' with you."
Then Iri turns to look at Osi. Both eyebrows shoot up. Oh no! She can't be having that! Bad enough that Reeve is teasing her, but this girl actually thinks she's gotta treat Iri like something special? No, she won't have it. The Fury lets go of Reeve and walks over to Osi. One hand reaches down to tap her shoulder.
"I don't think so, dear child. First of all, my promotion is very recent and only due to my dumb luck. Second, I don't approve of going by titles. My name is 'Iri'. Call me that. If you can't remember it, 'Ms. Feathers' or 'hey, you' is more acceptable than 'Headmistress'. And I won't have anyone bowing to me, either. If we can call each other friends and you can take orders when it's necessary, that's the most respect I need from you. Now..."
Iri stops talking, and her expression becomes a little distant. She looks as though she's listening to something. Then she shakes her head and steps back from Osi.
"Gotta go. Osijira, you can catch some rest at the Kaze Dojo. My home is your home for as long as you need it. Just find an open room in the basement and chill."
Iri walks back to Reeve and hugs him again. When she pulls back, she keeps talking. "Jin says Tier needs to talk to me. This one doesn't say much unless it's necessary, so I guess it's important. You can wait at the dojo for me, if you want. I wanna hear about what you've been doing."
The winged woman smiles at Reeve, then turns around to wave at Osi. She doesn't even bother flying. Iri just shines with energy and then fades into the air. She's on her way to the site of the Main Dojo.
