 Ophelia IncendiaTheme songDon't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide Ophelia lifted her right hand to her chin and tapped it with her index finger. "I think so. I'm not sure I'm thinking of the right song though." She set her hand on his shoulder to help herself sit at the piano, almost reluctantly bringing her hand back to herself. Setting her hands on the piano, she played the occasional cord, not delving into an extensively complex background music, and began to sing. "Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you, away you rolling river. Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you, away, I'm bound away, 'cross the wide Missouri. Oh Shenandoah, I love your daughter, away, you rolling river. For her I'd cross, your roaming waters, away, I'm bound away, 'cross the wide Missouri." After performing the sample, she turned back to her teacher, pink hair slipping over her large, approval-seeking blue eyes. "Do you mean that one?" she asked, just barely stopping herself from calling him "Master" like she did all her previous teachers. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXx"I thought this was supposed to be a capella not play the occasional chord to be sure you're hitting the right notes..." "Shut it up there! That is indeed the song I was speaking of. There's one thing that tends to help in singing a capella and that, mon ami, is having someone to help keep up the background via sound effects. This is most easily kept by phantoms since we can alter matter to our own conditions thus making things like a single acoustic guitar sound like an entire band. Your hands should've also been at least three keys to your left also so it would've come out as every other key sounding like... this," Eric started in a rather vicious sounding snap although it only made Viaresu start snickering up top. As he spoke ever so gently to Ophelia, his fingers tapped out the general notes she'd hit albeit sounded slightly different from how she played it. He then lightly took the girl's hands in his own, pulling her to her feet and away from the piano. "While I could easily alter matter to make it sound like the song is being sung by a choir, I figure that since we have two other gentlemen in the room, they can assist us in getting that background vocals that will assist you in singing correctly. Yue, Viaresu, up and down here please."
xxxxx"Of course he's gonna do this... Fine, but I'll only do backup vocals 'cause I've already killed half a pack of smokes today... Tyvinda, you're helping too albeit I'd prefer you stay in the background vocal range with me and Yue," the guy up top sighed before sliding between the bars on the catwalk with a secondary male with dark black hair, hazel eyes and mocha colored skin, a guitar strapped to his back. Both hit the stage without so much as a vibration and helped Yue to his feet.
xxxxx"God, I hate it when you guys come popping out of the woodwork." "He teleported actually, following the trail I deliberately left within his range of senses. He's not as naïve and irritating as you, Yue. You're French aren't you, Koail?" "Oui. Bonjour, mademoiselle. I am Tyvinda Evenstar, but you may just call me Koail. I used to work wiz Viaresu ven he worked at ze palace and snuck ze Phantomen trio into ze castle walls so ze vampires could not find zem. Zey were far nicer back zen an' 'e was so much more dull zan 'e is wizout music," the new male hummed cheerfully in a heavy French accent, while briefly pointing at Eric when speaking of him being dull. This got Eric to blink and glance at him somewhat confused by his words, but then again...
xxxxx"Ophelia, this is the Koail we mentioned earlier with le harceleur dame folle. He's not really French, but it's the language he's opting for right now. His native tongue is that of the fey from long, long ago. Koail, this is Ophelia, my... muse," Eric murmured a bit softer than he'd intended, the slightly furrowed brow on his face still showing his confusion on what the newest addition had said about him being far more dull without music. When he opened his mouth, the male who'd had a thick French accent had started up in singing in the proper notes to which Yue and Viaresu added a softer hum as background voices so as to keep him from asking his questions. Shortly after getting to where Ophelia had stopped, Koail flashed a pleased smile at her.
xxxxx"I believe you were teaching zis belle dame to sing a capella, ne? Singing wizout a tune is somezing zat will zrow ze pitches out of whack in which will zrow any ozer singers off. Zis is the reason zat most a capella singers work in a group, some just giving sound effects or hums to keep each ozer wizin zeir proper notes. I speak truz do I non, mon copagnon musical?" the male called Koail hummed ever so calmly while crossing his arms behind his back, his smile seemingly like that of the Cheshire Cat's grin. Seeing Eric nod, his deep hazel eyes shifted back to Ophelia in which he slightly motioned for her to stand in the middle of the stage. "You were going to do an a capella beatbox version of ze Prayer anyways next so I'm going to request you do eet as a duet. Mon copagnon musical?" "Oui? I mean yes, yes. Sorry, I was a bit taken aback by what you said, but then again, you're about as addicted to music as I am, ne? I'll contemplate it, Koail. So anyhoo, Ophelia, we'll give you a hum as Yue and Viaresu did for Koail so as to keep your pitch while you try singing that again. You think you can figure out the proper pitch based on our humming?"

Ophelia IncendiaTheme song Don't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide The young girl flinched at Eric's snap, then blushed at his soft words and gentle touch. Her body moved accordingly to his without precedent, and she was more than happy oblige to wherever he wanted her to move and however he wanted her to stand. It was almost flattering how drastically he changed with her, but she knew it was only because she had just agreed to sing for him. Ophelia wasn't expecting anything from Eric other than lessons and possibly friendship, but his treatment of her was beginning to mess with her mind. A man could only be so polite to a young woman before she started developing difficult feelings towards them.
Shaking herself from her thoughts, Ophelia listened to the quartet of men, giggling at the latest addition to their group's two-bits. "I'm sure he wasn't that bad," she said to him, smiling genuinely. After hearing Eric's introduction for the man and for herself, she nodded at the mocha-colored male and brushed her hair from her face. "A pleasure to meet you, Koail. You may call me...well, whatever really. I've never really cared." The pink-haired teen tilted her head and felt her smile fade as her mind ingested the music, analyzing it carefully. Just before she could comment, she was directed to the middle of the stage.
Unusually obedient to someone definitely not her teacher, Ophelia's feet lead her to the middle of the stage, her head held high and her shoulder back, the young woman's "personality" more outspoken that before and her curves far more pronounced. Her hands clasped behind her back, and she nodded to Eric. "I can try." When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXx"Non. Wizout music escaping from 'eez head, Eric eez 'onestly one of ze most depressing guys you weel ever meet. Eet was always wiz ze seriousness or ze sadness even when 'e smiled and laughed. 'e eez ze angel of music from hell and wizout music, 'e was obsolete or zat eez 'ow eet appeared at ze time. Now zat we 'ave met again, 'e eez back to 'eez music and not so dull. Zis eez 'ow I feel on ze subject," Viaresu and Koail responded in sync with each other, both having that heavy French accent. Briefly flashing each other that half-smirk of theirs, the two then shifted their gaze back to Eric as if he were the conductor. Yué, on the other hand, rolled his eyes slightly while muttering something that sounded like fruity nerds, but wasn't exactly audible enough to actually be understood coherently.
xxxxx"Thank you for telling me how depressing I was when I wasn't composing music, guys," Eric sighed lightly as he pinched the bridge of his nose with one hand. Oh how honest his friends and family could be. Shaking off the negativity he was feeling, he gave a slight motion of his hand to get the males humming in unison once again although each had their own unique sound to the hum. With his other hand he gave Ophelia a thumbs up as if telling her to feel free to start. It made him happy to know she was willing to try understanding how to understand a capella so as to surpass what she believed she couldn't do. She might not know it yet, but it's what he intended for her. Ophelia would be greater than Christine ever was and he'd be sure of that.

Ophelia IncendiaTheme song Don't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide Ophelia stifled a giggle at the young men in unison, glancing at Eric every now and then as they told of his depression when he went without music. When they finished, she smiled warmly at her teacher and clasped her hands in front of her. "Oh, I'm sure you weren't all that bad," she insisted, light pink hair ruffling from her movement. For a moment, the lights of the stage seemed to light her pink hair aglow, creating a brief rose halo, and she was truly an angelic sight. But as soon as the vision began, it was gone, and Ophelia stood on the stage in silent wait for her cue. At Eric's thumbs up, she opened her mouth and began to sing, attempting to capture the essence of the song to the best of her ability.
"Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you, away you rolling river. Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you, away, I'm bound away, 'cross the wide Missouri. Oh Shenandoah, I love your daughter, away, you rolling river. For her I'd cross, your roaming waters, away, I'm bound away, 'cross the wide Missouri. 'Tis seven years since last I've seen you. Away, we're bound away, across the wide Missouri. Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you, away you rolling river. Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you, away, I'm bound away, 'cross the wide Missouri." The auditorium rang with her final sweet note, waves echoing through the room. While her performance wasn't the greatest, it was clearly another strong point in Ophelia's voice. She somehow found a way to blend with the acapella, and all while managing to stand apart as the lead singer. Her sweet, somewhat innocent tone captured the beauty of the simple folk song, and the blushing young songstress clearly held even greater potential than she herself knew.
However, it was slowly becoming clear that her beloved teacher could see the greatness lurking beneath her skin and hardened heart. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

☆ XXϮяαηscєηδιηg ϮιмєXX
☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXx"Mais il était," Koail scoffed after cutting off his humming along with the other three males. He then slapped his hand against Eric's back getting a slightly irritated glare directed at him after the elder phantom somehow managed to maintain his balance. Ah. He was getting readjusted to being vampire again. It made sense as to why he was doing the whole background preference instead of singing in unison with Ophelia.
xxxxx"It's there. Still needs work, but it's there. I'm pleased by how this is advancing," Eric smiled at Ophelia while inwardly cursing Koail's sideways glance that spoke of how the other knew he'd slipped up in pitch ever so slightly at that faint rosy glow that'd come from the pink haired young woman oh so momentarily. He, a master musician, had been distracted by how beautiful that spotlight could make his muse. Ignoring a slight tsk coming from elsewhere in the room, the dark haired phantom let out a soft sigh while flicking Koail on the back of his neck just above a dog collar he wore.
xxxxx"Non, non, mon ami. They're quite right about what they say and I'd be the first to admit that, but it was how blunt they were about it that took me by surprise. Music has always been the easiest way to express myself and by cutting off music, I was bottling up all of those emotions and once that begins-"
xxxxx"You either get someone like Koail who grins like the Cheshire Cat-"
xxxxx"Or you get someone like Viaresu who remains a stick in ze mud, all serious or sad and yet zey never seem to try showing zheir genuine feelings zrough facial expressions much less body language. Eet eez ze scars upon zheir bodies zat speak many untold tales but zere can only be one narrator. If ze narrator never speaks of zese scars zen all you can pick up from zem is a sense of misery, regret, pain, remorse and a neverending emptiness lined in guilt. Ze phantoms lost a war, zeir moz'air ze traitor, zeir faz'air among ze dead, ze laboratories een rueens and zeir broz'air an untamable creature of zeir own creation. What was zere to not feel such zings yet ozer zan just giving off zat natural aura, 'aving no ways of expressing zese feelings since 'eez music was left behind?"
xxxxx"Eric's only flaw is that he cannot express himself as openly as most. Think about what I said before, Ophelia. When his musical compositions were active, he'd behave in certain mannerisms based on the tides of war and how well people listened to the opera ghost. On most occasions it was minor pranks. On others, he'd straight up attempt to murder people. He stopped composing and those emotions and actions ceased altogether to the point of him forcing his smiles and laughter yet facing death with an eerie calm. Without his compositions, he is like Kristen Stewart; a lego brick. Mother used to speak of us when we were infants and merely said that Eric would smile to a happy tune, cry to a sad song and so on and so forth. At any time there wasn't even the faintest bit of a hum, he was very quiet and reserved. That is his flaw."
xxxxx"Eh. That makes Eric somewhere between the stick in the mud and the snake in the grass. You're human, yes?"
xxxxx"Eet eez adorable really, but 'e realizes zis too, non?"
xxxxx"Of course he does. He's a phantom, not some halfwit vampire twit."
xxxxx"Just making sure, mon ami."

Ophelia IncendiaTheme song Don't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide The teen blushed to match her pink hair at her teacher's praise, excited to know that she could please her teacher so well, and happy to hear his praise. "It would advance little without you. All praise should be directed towards the master, not his student." Ophelia surprised herself by ending by reciting something her father would say when she was still learning piano. "Father's praise rarely went to me," she thought, blue eyes still on her beloved teacher, and ears listening to their story halfheartedly. "I suppose that's why I treasure Eric's so much...right?"
After her mind reentered the conversation, Ophelia was shocked to hear of Eric's past. His mother, a traitor? His father, dead? No wonder he seemed so haunted. He'd lost everything in that war. And to top it all off, a man who could only express his inner haunting through music was forced to leave it behind for so long. How could he live? How did he suffer through each day with such agony? Oh, the poor man... Suddenly, Ophelia came to a decision: no matter what the music, she would sing it for him, or find some way to perform it. She would wholeheartedly obey her teacher, and would do anything in her power to bring his music to life.
Once they finish speaking, she came closer to Eric and set her hand on his upper arm, fingers tingling at the small contact. "Then compose," she said softly, her hand sliding off of him and hanging by her side. "I want you to express your emotions, not to stuff them into the cardboard box in your mind. Who knows what could happen once it overflows?" The young woman smiled softly, eyes twinkling up at him. "Either way, I will always be here to sing your music for you."
Stepping away, she moved back to her place in the middle of the stage, sitting on the floor and looking up at all of them. "You know, you all are a very puzzling group," Ophelia observed, tilting her head curiously. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

☆ XXϮяαηscєηδιηg ϮιмєXX
☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXx"Oh si naïve, cette jeune fille douce. Pense qu'elle sera toujours là pour lui. Un tel enfant à penser de telles choses possible. Elle sait toujours pas sa propre mortalité," Koail and Viaresu softly hummed back and forth to each other in a familiar tune. They then followed this humming by smiling so sadly while glancing at Ophelia offering to be Eric's way of opening up those feelings he held deep inside of himself. After both shook their head, their hands slapped over Yué's mouth before he could voice what they'd said to each other to the pink haired young woman.
xxxxx"Thank you, Ophelia, but without a student who listens, the teacher is not really a teacher. The teacher is is nothing without the student just as the student can achieve nothing without the teacher," the dark haired phantom purred in that low, smooth rumble that could give nearly anyone goosebumps. His deep red eyes flecked with different colors, metallic and nonmetallic alike, glanced briefly at the dirty-blonde nerd that resembled something of a delinquent and the still smiling darker haired guitarist. What was wrong with them and their somewhat sad smiles directed at him? And now they were keeping Yué quiet about things. It must've concerned him or Ophelia if they were keeping Yué silent about it.
xxxxx"My hypothesis is something bad such as going completely insane or becoming suicidal are the most common occurrences of not opening up. And please don't say that cardboard box thing again... It has apparently tickled Viaresu and Koail pink seeing as they're trying so desperately to bite back their laughter," Eric responded to her comment of bottling up his feelings. Viaresu and Koail, of course, were pressing their lips together so as to not burst out laughing although it was apparent by the way their bodies shook ever so slightly. Briefly rolling his eyes, Eric's eyebrow rose at how Ophelia called them an odd group whereas Viaresu had stopped laughing altogether.
xxxxx"Us? A group? Ha! I laugh on your lapel. We just know each other from a time in our past and don't completely hate each other so we sometimes hang out. I find Eric's approval of music I've written and intellect something worth keep keeping around, Yué not so much. He reminds me of my brother only as less of a forceful d_ck. Koail lessens the burden of magic usage for me and cares for me when I go into a catatonic state and cannot protect myself. As for Tori, he's beyond indescribable as to why he's fine to stay around even with the quirk of being unable to control the zombie in him," Viaresu scoffed while crossing his arms over his chest. He then gave a slight shrug before glancing back at Eric. "You do know the words to The Prayer, right? I'm pretty sure this is supposed to be a music lesson. Koail, you're like Eric in being a musical genius albeit you're more like your own music library that's actually been recorded plus a few others you're still debating release of so you're gonna go for the beatbox sound effects."
xxxxx"Duet! Yay~ Zis eez going to be awesome! Let's do eet!" Koail cheered as he started bouncing around the stage in excitement. At seeing that, Eric gave a soft chuckle while shaking his head ever so slightly. "It looks like Koail's not going to let this just be a lesson, but performances for his own amusement as well. Viaresu is supporting him, as per usual, and Yué is being Yué. It's more of a slow song and I wanted to hear you sing a bit slower of a song besides what Yué calls my theme song. Of course I'd like for you to tell me what you believe the feeling in the song is supposed to be before it's sung."

Ophelia IncendiaTheme song Don't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide Ophelia rolled her eyes at the two, crossing her arms and shaking her head. "It's more of an observation than a label. By group, I mean not as a group of friends, but a group of people with individual quirks that I don't fully understand. I would explain, but I doubt it would hold any interest to you." Turning her gaze back to Eric, she stood and set her hands on her hips. Taking a few steps forward, she then looked down at the floor, trying to think about the song in question. Her father used to sing it to her before he was killed, although mostly in Hungarian and rarely in English. Still though, she remembered the lyrics well enough to sing them. But what did the song mean?
"Is hope a feeling?" she asked quietly, looking back to Eric, the sadness she felt when thinking of her father back in her eyes. "When I listen to the song, I feel hope. But thinking back, it's more than just that, right? It's a prayer for protection, and hope for a better day. Or am I wrong again?" When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXx"Did she-?"
xxxxx"Oui."
xxxxx"When she-?"
xxxxx"Oui."
xxxxx"She's so-"
xxxxx"Oui." This last chuckled response from Koail got a slight glare from Viaresu although he didn't say anything about Koail deliberately cutting him off just shy of three words. It was nice understanding each other's thought process without even being as open as most thought they should be seeing as they knew each other for most of their lives.
xxxxx"Misinterpretation on both sides now shut it. Lord have mercy on us all if someone should start a debate on whether his ex-girlfriend's allowed to see other guys after they've both called each other morons and went separate ways. Hope is indeed a feeling one gets so it counts as an emotion," Eric responded while pinching the bridge of his nose in what could only be exhaustion over the chatter going on around him. When Viaresu went to come back with a sharp retort, he stumbled forward only to expose Tori standing behind him and getting a chuckle from Koail.
xxxxx"The song, my pink chickadee, is that of hoping for a better tomorrow where decisions are wise, mutual weirdness is achieved and called true love, and peace and harmony takes place of war and crime. In short, you aren't incorrect on the feelings you pick up from the song. You're incorrect on what Viaresu was saying though. While you say it doesn't mean a group of friends, you subconsciously implied it. That and Viaresu prefers not being lumped in with other people whether he's here or not just as I prefer being left alone. To put it simply, even if you meant it as a group of friends or not was irrelevant to why he laughed on your lapel not your label. It's kind of that irritating flappy piece on a suit or pantsuit and is supposed to be something of an insult. Break it down for her next time, Viaresu. Koail, drop the French accent as we're not going 'viva la resistance! Viva la revolution!' anymore," Tori sighed in that irritable grumble of his while briefly taking the time to raise his fist in the air as if in defiance. Dropping his hand back down to his side, he gave a slight sniff and nod at Eric before climbing onto a stool beside Koail who gave him a hug.
xxxxx"Oui, Monsieur! I'll stop the French accent for you," Koail hummed while ignoring Viaresu's rolling of the eyes. Letting out a soft sigh, Viaresu gave Tori a slight nod before also glancing at Eric. "Get started. I'm going up top to smoke a cigarette so just give me the queue on humming for you guys." And with that, he held a hand out to Tori who easily took it while sliding off his stool momentarily just to fling the other male up into the air like a baseball. As soon as he was seated again, Viaresu's feet made a soft thud on the catwalk above.
xxxxx"Correct, in a way. Words cannot always express the things we feel so seeing as you managed to put the feelings you were getting from the song into that of words. Yué and Viaresu, do you mind getting down the hum to get us started?" Eric partly sighed while flashing Ophelia an apologetic smile. Viaresu's exhalation of smoke above could be heard before a low hum came from him, Yué and Koail who was obviously leaving the beatbox sound effects to Tori who still seemed rather unamused. "Do any of the teachers ever really show up in this school or is it more like the students run the school and intend to tell the principal and the rest of the adults to kiss their arse?"

Ophelia IncendiaTheme song Don't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide "They show up. Just not when they don't have class," she said, choosing not to dwell on everything that was said. Oh, Eric must have thought her to be such an idiot! How could he spend all this time with her when she was so ridiculously stupid?! Ophelia took a deep, tired breath and stood up straight, smiling softly at Eric. "I wonder, would my father smile upon seeing who I'm standing with today?" she asked rhetorically and quietly before sighing and staring forward again. "Are you ready, Eric?" When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you Dantes_river Sorry, short post. I'm so incredibly exhausted.

☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXx"Do not. I've been to like every classroom and still only know the names of the teachers yet not the face. Sexual Education is supposed to be some succubus-like woman with some horrid name I'd prefer not mentioning and the Deadly Sin of Sloth or, if you prefer, the demon Belphegor. Then there is Luciano Vaporatti, a vampire who grew weak at the knees at a pair of twins stepping foot into his classroom. Do correct me if I'm wrong Eric seeing as you and your brothers were there. The art teacher has been changed about three times in the year I believe and let's not get me started on the others. Then there's the texts the students are supposed to use for the year. I'd have a better conversation with a wall than read over these textbooks again... The principal will probably get mad too considering I burned the damnable things given to me alongside some kid's copies of the Twilight series... Think she'll ever notice how many fires I started on her campus even, Koail?" Viaresu hummed still in tune while flicking the ashes from the end of his cigarette and blowing smoke up to the ceiling.
xxxxx"Probably not since she'd have to have eyes everywhere to catch you do anything and she'd have noticed how long we spent locked up in your dormitory 'cause you went into your comatose sleep and I had to be sure you weren't disturbed and ended up killing someone for it. Bierrez isn't as kind as Viaresu after all, ne?" Koail hummed back while keeping his tune. He then gave a slight shrug while brushing Tori's hair out of his face as if he were still a child. Seeing a smudge of dirt on his face, the guitarist licked his thumb and began scrubbing it off while the youngest phantom scowled.
xxxxx"And she shouldn't go finding some dimwit of a guy who has good looks just to try getting me jealous when it's her in the wrong. It's always her in the wrong and then I'm the bad guy who keeps too many secrets. Why does she expect me to beg for forgiveness from her when she's bein' the dumbass? It just pisses me off," Viaresu growled in a way that made his humming seem a bit off for a moment before returning back to that regular hum again. This just got Tori, Yué and Koail to shift their gaze with a brow raised at Eric who only shrugged slightly.
xxxxx"You had to go stirring up that hornet's nest... Either way, I've been to the sexual education room like three times today, and it's a school day, yet I haven't seen either teacher that's supposed to work there," Tori muttered while swatting Koail's hand away and wiping the spit off his cheek. That comment made Yué and Eric's eyebrow raise slightly before the hum Yué was keeping held in the air although his regular tone asked, "Why'd you go there?"
xxxxx"I was curious about something and I'm always bothering Eric and you so I figured I'd ask someone else and I didn't realize the guy who knows how to unravel time is in the school. I even left like fifty friggin' notes in the classroom saying I'd be by the room today at three specific times! Viaresu, I'll be your accomplice in burning this stupid place to the ground should you feel like doing that before you leave," Tori retorted while giving a dismissive wave at Yué who only seemed to get mad about the gesture. Seeing Eric shake his head slightly, however, just got him to return to humming instead of speaking his thoughts aloud. "I'll keep that in mind, Tori. It might be easier burning the place down with you smashing up the support beams a bit with that huge sword of yours after all."
xxxxx"Don't support each other in burning down a school full of innocent civilians. I am ready, Ophelia, just don't bother arguing with them as they'll just drag it out. One sarcastic statement about Viaresu's female friend he's either dating or on hiatus with and he's already wanting to rant about how she's being the stupid one. Just let their irritation simmer down on it's own or with the aid of music instead of discussing it," Eric murmured softly so only Ophelia would hear him while lightly making his hands sign for her to keep eye contact with him in the center of the stage.

Ophelia IncendiaTheme song Don't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide Ophelia listened silently to the conversation, only opening her mouth to the group once. "Then please, allow me to explain about the teachers as I have come to understand in my time working in the office," she offered, bowing her head to examine her shirt. "Miss Shell has gone missing and is presumed dead. Her class was transferred to Mr. Byko's, but he is also out. The last I heard of him, his lover was murdered and he was in mourning. I don't know if he still is." After picking off a piece of lint, she looked back up to them. "Professor Vaporatti has also lost his lovers, the twins that made him "weak in the knees", as you said. They were killed alongside a student, and it is unclear if they will be able to be resurrected. The professor has been unable to find the music he loves without his women, so he refuses to play at all. Principal Mayazaki has been far too busy with funeral arrangements for the dead students and teachers of the year, and cannot trouble herself with fires. Honestly though, she doesn't care at all about them. Says that as long as no one else dies, blaze on." Finished with her tirade, Ophelia took a deep breath and raised her eyes to Eric's, blue eyes gazing into garnet ones. She didn't move, didn't really breathe, and watched him. Her eyes seemed to ask him to give her a signal to begin, as she couldn't stand being laughed at again. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXx"Resurrected?!" Viaresu snapped, his hum breaking off completely as his gaze shifted back down to Ophelia. Unfortunately, he started coughing from inhaling the smoke from his cigarette when his attention had been captured by the girl's words. As soon as his coughing ceased, the sharp glare from Eric made him let out a huff and begin humming once more. Koail had his usual calm expression of complete cheeriness while Yué had his gaze directed elsewhere. As for Tori, he just had his hand carefully touching the three scars on his arm while staring at the floor.
xxxxx"I called it then... Something bad happens once again in an area we're in. Bad luck follows us wherever we may go... I'm just waiting for that to happen again," Tori mumbled while running his fingertips down the length of the scars while a slightly pained expression took residence over his features. Past Koail's shoulders, however, no one could really see it as the humming continued onwards. Not even the slight shudder that ran down his form could be seen past the gentle hug the guitarist was keeping the young phantom in as if trying to keep him calm.
xxxxx"Let the dead be. Even if you bring the dead back to life, they will never be the same. Only fools believe the dead can be returned as they were," Eric stated softly, his gaze dark and extremely unhappy by what Ophelia had spoken of happening in the school. It was difficult to see these feelings since the song being started up wasn't full of the various things he was feeling such as irritation and that dark prankster side that'd hung a man from the rafters and dropped a chandelier on innocent civilians just to kill one man... Or at least attempt to kill him. The man got to safety before the chandelier was able to kill him and the dillhole kidnapped his first muse! This wasn't the time to drag up the anger from the past as the human was dead now, but resurrecting the dead was complete stupidity and insanity in one sitting. Barely catching a glimpse of what appeared to be twins turning and vanishing on the catwalk, one seemingly pissed yet bored while the other seemingly upset, just proved that fact. At least the five males here wouldn't need to involve themselves in stating the stupidity of reviving the dead.
xxxxxLetting out a soft breath while briefly closing his eyes so as to calm himself on the inside seeing as the song would become dark and lyrics changed if he kept up that inner workings of dark feelings, he gave a slight nod to Ophelia. "You may begin, Ophelia. My vocals will come in a short while alongside Tori's vocal background." Tori had been released from the hug at this time albeit he still seemed a little bit more into the 'gloomy' department emotion-wise yet 'distant', if one could call continuously tracing the scars on his upper left arm as being distant or lost in the past.

Ophelia IncendiaTheme song Don't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide Ophelia crossed her arms under her bosom and stared hard at her phantom teacher. "If I was even involved with returning the dead to life, do you think I'd be here?" she asked, her question answering itself. It was clear that the young singer would have been far away in Hungary with her resurrected family if she was allowed near the necromancers. But as the wound was still so fresh, it was forbidden, and she continued to suffer. "I only know this, because I occasionally work for Principal Mayazaki. That doesn't mean I concern myself in her work, and that doesn't mean I must be scolded in any way for her mistakes." Ophelia's tone was harsh and angered, as if she was furious that he dared to say such things. It wasn't as if she tried to resurrect her family. One only made that mistake once.
Shaking her head and forcing the anger down, Ophelia uncrossed her arms and straightened, licking her lips and taking a deep breath. "I understand," she said quietly, waiting until the right time to once again open her mouth, her voice as sweet as ever. "I pray you'll be our eyes, and watch us where we go, and help us to be wise in times when we don't know. Let this be our prayer, when we lose our way. Lead us to the place, guide us with your grace, to a place where we'll be safe." When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you
