Admittedly, the fresh air did do him a little good as he took in a deep breath, and it was only then that he realized it was his brother that had been the one to take him outside. He was sincerely grateful for the help, figuring that if he was the one that took him outside, it was probably for the better. He definitely should have taken the water, though. [color=plum][abbr=I love you, little brother...]"私はあなたを愛しています、弟..."[/abbr][/color] He mumbled. He half-listened to the conversation, brow furrowing at the mention of Mystic Prophecy. If that was where the group wanted to go, he'd rather put his energy elsewhere. He was more than happy to continue his self-appointed studies and practice his magic. Brushing up on his skills and spells was much more time-worthy than going somewhere and awkwardly standing around and avoiding Luci. His frown deepened as he caught his name, though it was like a splash of cold water hit his face as he stared at his brother. [color=plum]"Don't say that,"[/color] He couldn't help but scoff as he leaned back against the building. He hated it when his parents compared him, he hated it when their relatives did it--he wasn't about to accept it hearing it from Kazuma, either. [color=plum]"Plenty of things you can do that I can't."[/color] [i][color=plum]Like talk to people, for one.[/color][/i] He thought as he let himself slide down to the ground, readjusting so that he had his arms resting on his knees. [color=plum]"I dunno where you've been looking, Rael, but there's resentment there. They lost more than we did while we made it out alive. Even if they don't admit it, there are feelings to be had over that."[/color] Bad feelings, of course. [/indent][hr][hr]
