Welcome to Gaia! ::

Candace liked Otto. He wasn't as bad a kid as he made himself out to be, and he was entertaining.

But he was also a rude ******** brat sometimes.

She had been asleep. Candace liked her sleep to go uninterrupted. At first she had ignored the knocking; if someone wanted her so bad they'd either text her or let themselves in. But no, they knocked. By the time she groaned and regretfully climbed out of bed, tossing on a robe over her sleep clothes, she was awake enough to realize it was Otto on the other side of the door.

"Lemme in what?" Candace asked as she opened the door, leaning on the door jam with her arm holding the door itself. She was blocking his path in.

"Very good, you may pass." Candace stepped aside and gestured for Otto to come in, closing the door behind him and giving a nod of her head. "Yeah, but it's fine. Can't sleep all day~. Molly'll probably be up soon too if you want to stay for breakfast."

There was a pause. She looked for her phone. "It's breakfast, right?"

Shaking her head, Candace waved a hand dismissively. "So what's up?"

Candace waited patiently while Otto dug around in his pockets, taking the paper offered to her and reading what little words were on the page while the boy explained what he was doing. The first line alone had been enough to win her over. Weapon Candidates. She no longer looked at all tired, her eyes practically sparkling with excitement.

"Weapon candidates?" Oh Otto.

Oh Otto.

"And why did you bring this to me~?" Did he want her help? Could she help him? Oh please oh please! Candace did her best to keep her excitement in check, trying not to show too much right off the bat.

"It's a very difficult task sometimes. You have to really watch them..and do the exact opposite of pretty much everything I did last time." Candace handed the paper back to Otto, smiling. "I can help, if you want. Basically you need to look for students that show certain qualities, there's a lot of rules."

And Candace had pretty much broken every one of them.

Way to go.

Oooh! He we even said please! "Oooh, good boy to say please. Good boy." Oh...but..

"I'm going to have to think of a new reward system for you." Candace mused with a little smile, running her fingers through her hair to fix the bedhead she had going. "I can help you, yeah. I know a few off-limit students and some other students I know for sure won't help you at all." She frowned now. "And others that will be suspicious if you only show up once as a specific golem. Weapon candidates aren't just a one visit thing."

Candace laughed and rolled her eyes. "I don't think Eva would like me kissing you. So, you want candy. I'll keep that in mind." Boy was going to get cavities.

She did look interested in what one Otto wanted to take out permanently. Well, maybe if he tried he could win her over as a golem. Sweet talk her. Turn her into a weapon. "A student?" They were pretty annoying, so she wouldn't be surprised.

When Otto complained about the assignment and division again she frowned. "Why did you stay in Death instead of transferring to a more suitable division, then?"

"You're going to get cavities." Candace warned Otto as she disappeared into the kitchen, searching around until she found a batch of brownies Molly had made the day before. This would do. She picked two of them out of the pan and put them on a napkin, even pouring a glass of milk for the boy before finally emerging from the kitchen. "Will brownies do?"

She listened to Otto's explanation about the 'boil or ghoul' who had attacked him. Candace even gave a little smile when he claimed to not be a people person. "That's wonderful, they're not people so you have nothing to be concerned about."

So he had no idea what he was doing.. "Have you been given a rundown on the rules?"
