Welcome to Gaia! ::

As the girl's voice reaches his ears, he jumps up onto his feet and onto another step in fright. Upon getting a better look at whom it was who spoke to him he'd begin to settle. He takes a small glance around before turning a seemingly solemn glance towards the girl; seemingly without any means of communication. It would be then that he'd remember the pocket-sized notebook his cousin got for him as a parting gift to the school, slipping it from his pocket and opening it up to the first page. He takes a deep breath with the book in one hand, his free hand lifting to position itself o n the left side of the page. His eyes close softly as he slowly moves his hand over the book with its back facing the page. The shadow in which his hand casted upon the paper grows thicker and breaks apart into smaller segments on the paper; the segments then morphing into words. With the spell complete, he hands the book over to her so that she could read it's contents; a gracious smile spreading over his lips.

I won't be much of a conversationalist, but it's nice to meet you nevertheless Miss Namine. I am Zilvolin; Zilvolin Ken'ghym. The message reads.

He merely covers his lips with one hand to stifle a silent laugh, nodding his head soon after in answer. This time, he lifts his right hand and repeats the same motion as before over the book he now placed in her hands. The letters corrode into shadow again and then reform to create a completly different sentence.

I get that all of the time, so it's nothing to feel too terrible about. The words now read.

At this he'd flash her a broad smile; glad that the first student he met seemed as though they'd be a friend instead of a nuisance.

His glance momentarily turns over to one side, ears twitching slightly as they pick up yet another far off sound. At first there was a voice; faint from where he was now, and then nothing. Perhaps another student conversing with someone else. With that in mind, his glance returns to Namine, a glint of curiosity welling in his eyes.

IV blinked, realizing once again that she became so caught up within her own thoughts, she turned a deaf ear to the real world. Noticing a lack of Namine in the tree, she whipped her head around trying to find the one person she could positively call 'Friend' at the moment. Smiling once more when she caught sight of the familiar red robes and hair, IV climbed down the tree and started a run over to her.

Well, atleast until she noticed Zilvolin. She froze in mid run as soon as she indentified the pointy ears. Breath caught within her throat, eyes wide, and her mouth once in a cheshire smile was now only agape slightly. One thing circled through her mind in a continous loop 'Aren't Elve's immortal?...'

((Note:Hah! So much fun writing this one, Keiji, just wanted to thank you for bringing in a character like that in the first place, but really, are Elves immortal? Or do they just live for a really long time... In another note, I've realized that IV's hypnotism may be difficult, or impossible, to use in roleplay form. Since she kinda has to, you know, take over a person and use said person to fight for her and that would be difficult without godmodding. Cause she can't fight well at all.

I'm posting this because if I can not find a solution, I may have to kill IV (Harsh, I know, but the hypnotism is a VERY large part of her character, so if I get rid of the hypnotism, I get rid of IV). So any help would be loved.))

An old car sped up the drive-way and screeched to a stop. Just before the car had stoped moving Kiery* had un-buckled her seatbelt, all too ready to leave her dad behind. But as she started to push the door open, her dad roughly pushed her out, and she bit her lip to muffle the sound of pain that apeared when her palm and wrist scrapedthe sidewalk. Just cause she cut herself to practice manipulating her blood, doesn't mean getting dirt and rock remains stuck in an open wound doesn't hurt. "oh suck it up!" her dad said loudly. Kiery turned around just in thime to see her dad throw her bag out the still open door, and she scooted out of the way just before it would have hit her. As the car door slamed shut and the car sped away, she yelled, "Yeah, thanks a lot!!" As her dad rounded the last corner and disapeared from sight she scrambeld through her over-filled bag to find some rubbing alchohal(sp? I'm tired and without spell-chack) Once found she quickly screwed the bottle cap off, and proceded to carefully pour it on her wound. Since she already messes around with her blood on a regular basis, she needed to make sure none of the debris was caught inside it when she scabbed it over. "ow, stining, stinging, ow!" she muttered over and over again. When she was sure it was good and clean, she pressed her good hand on the wound and silently counted "1, 2, 3." in her head and removed her hand from the scrape. It was scabbed over perfectly, and not much would make it crack open again. Still seated on the curb, Kiery put the rubbing alchohal away, before realizing her phone was vibrating. She slipped it out of her jeans' pocket. There was a new text-message from her sister.
'I miss you already Kys!! DX'
Kiery smiled. Kys was the nick-name they used when they texted each other. When they used sign language, they'd just use 'k' to refer to Kiery.
'I miss you too.' was the reply.
She slipped her phone back in her pocket. 'Caits better be okay' she thought. Thankfully Caitlyn would be completly safe, until their dad got back home from dropping Kiery off at her new school.

(* Kiery is pronounced Kie-ree. Kie like rye, or pie, or die.)
((sorry about the eccesivly long post. Not many more of my posts will be of that length. They'll be shorter.))

Namine smiled at IV when she saw her approach. "Zilvolin this is IV, we've become fast friends upon meeting. Im sure you'll like her as well" She motioned for IV to come closer. "I dont know if he'll let you take his picture but he is quite nice." Namine looked at the book again and what it said. "Hmm, I see then you couldn't talk to me long or you'd lose consciousness. There has to be a way though. Im sure we can figure something out." She said smiling at the boy. She turned to look towards the road near the school where someone had just deposited a girl, quite brusquely. Namine felt bad for her and wondered if she was hurt. She looked back at Zilvolin and saw his increasing discomfort. She moved closer to him whispered so only he could hear. "Hey if crowds make you uneasy we can hang out somewhere else." She looked at IV knowing she would come along. They could be like a trio and she smiled at the prospect. "So what do you say? Just nod yes or no I dont want you passing out on me" she said jokingly.

IV blinked, then shook her head. "Ah! Sorry, sorry! Got lost in a mind loop." Chuckling lightly at herself, she turned her head only to catch the interesting arrival of Kiery. "Waitaminute did that guy just throw that girl out of a car?! What the Shitake Mushrooms, that just isn't right man!" With that, IV turned on her toes and started to run towards the newest arrival, waving her arms up and down in a paniced way all the way there. Though she did stop half way, to turn around and yell. "It's nice to meet you Zilvolin*!" Then she went back to running towards Kiery.

Of course, IV being herself, as soon as she did reach Kiery she started to rant. "Hey! Are you okay?! Did you hit your head, do you need a nurse? To the nurses office! Wait does this school even have one? Aaaaaaaah! What to do, what to do!?"

*She caught his name when Namine told him hers, just incase you were wondering.
