If it hadn't been for the conversation with Livia earlier, she'd had told them both they were kicked out because they were disrespecting her and the campus' charity. As of now though, she tolerated it. [color=lightyellow]"There is. Down that hallway to the left. Help yourself."[/color] She gave a look towards her actual patient suggesting that she wasn't going along with her. [color=lightyellow]"You're late, but come on. I want to check on you."[/color] Walking towards a room with a small bed on it, the white mage pointed towards the examination mattress indicating the girl should lay down. [color=lightyellow]"Take off your shirt, I'm going to look to see how things are progressing and try a bit more of my healing myself."[/color] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/HuFvrKV.jpg[/img][/center] The cat boy toughness faded a bit as he looked into the strange creature's eyes before him - he got the feeling something was wrong with this girl, especially given that rather lethal and nasty looking set of teeth that was going across her mouth. For a couple of seconds, the cat boy examined and remained eerily still until his opponent decided to pounce towards him. The cat boy had cat-like reflexes and dodged to the side with just a bit of difficulty. With a little bit of the pride he had left, he seemed ready to turn around and perhaps negotiate with this strange lizard. Just as he finished turning around though, the second pounce slammed into his chest tossing the pair of them down onto the ground. The two of them tumbled for a bit from the tackle, but any contest of strength would quickly be won by Ritsa as the cat boy looked up a little scared. [hr] The noble woman sitting on the bench stood up some time during their confrontation, able to sense her familiar's fear rising - what had gone from fun and games had quickly become a bit more violent. Josette quickly ran over with her staff, pointing it at the familiar in front of her. [b]"H-hey! Stop that!"[/b] If someone - or some[i]thing[/i] decided to hurt her dear Bastien they'd have hell to pay. She'd practically been the cat's mother. She fired a shield spell between Bastien and Ritsa, separating the two of them rather forcefully as Bastien was pushed into the ground and Ritsa would find herself flung away by several feet and landing on her behind rather suddenly. [b]"Bastien, are you alright?"[/b] The cat boy nodded, still a little stunned and slightly frightened of that threatening row of teeth. Josette gave her cat a quick pat on the head, and then approached the figure that had tackled her familiar. Looking over to the culprit she quickly looked between her neck and wrist, where there were no obvious markings of who owned this lizard. Which meant either their caretaker was the demon standing idly on the sidelines, the crimson haired girl in the jungle gym, or one of those irresponsible liberals who tried to pretend that familiars had the exact same mindsets as humans and didn't need special care or discipline. Or maybe they were just a stray. Either way, without someone obvious to report this incident to she'd have to take care of it with the girl herself. [b]"Hey. [i]Stray.[/i] Or whatever. I don't know who you are, but just because you have a frightening row of teeth and are tough because doesn't mean you can bully and claim the playground for yourself."[/b] Josette's hand within her purple and yellow cloak already had a protection spell ready in case something went horribly wrong. The girls' eyes drifted towards the pink haired and crimson haired girl. [b]"Neither of you two is her master, right?"[/b] Fia simply shook her head silently, not doing anything else.
