"I think no one else is coming." Lotte said to herself after the last students, unsurprisingly only the ones not involved in the challenge, left the dinning hall. It looked like the students who actually made it to the challenge had decided that they would go at it without proper food. One had to wonder if the Headmaster really did cared for their health at all, to allow such behavior.Either way, it was not Lotte's place to think about such things.

She wrapped the leftovers carefully and had them sent back to the village where they would be distributed to the people in need. After all, there was no need to let so much food go to waste when it could be given to others. Once she was done with it, Lotte helped clean the dinning hall and do the laundry.

With her last chore for the day done and seeing that no student would be needing her help in the foreseeable future, Lotte went back to her room, after taking a nice bath and spent the rest of the afternoon napping, since it had been such a long time since she had the chance of a proper rest.

The Collector (2) [Closed]

"We don't understand what you may be saying." Lusso replied to Marianne's enigmatic words, turning her attention away from the painting for a moment to take another look at the raven black haired girl, taking in the sight of her mismatched eyes of purple and gold.

Lusso gave one steps on Marianne's direction before reached forth to touch the her shoulder as if trying to confirm that Marianne really did exist. The tombstone cold sensation Lusso felt trough her gloved hands, surprisingly, didn't even made Lusso flinch. Perhaps she didn't even knew how a normal human was supposed to feel?

Either way, Lusso seemed satisfied after feeling the fact that Marianne was not a fabrication of her mind and withdrew her hand, for a few moments Lusso stared at her empty palm, opening and closing it slowly. At the same time, if Marianne cared to check, she would find a translucent, almost spectral raven feather resting on her shoulder, thought it would disappear at the least of disturbances. Or perhaps not, given Marianne's strange connection with Lusso's mystery.

"How can we not know you aren't what you claim us to be?" So enthralled was she with Marianne, that Lusso didn't even noticed that the water running down from the painting until her shoes were practically soaked. At which point Lusso looked bellow her to see that the carpet had already turned into little more than a shallow puddle whose level rose slowly but surely.

A few of the feathers that seem to follow Lusso drifted in the water, going toward one of the corners of the room's corners as if guided by a current. Perhaps, there was something hidden behind one of those bookshelves?

Meanwhile, the loose raven's attention was turned away from the cigar box by the wafting smell of the freshly open can of beans. It flew from it's perch, trying to landing right on Shawn's forearm to scoop away some one the can's contents.

The bird cawed loud while beating its wings, which would unavoidably hit Shawn's face, if he didn't anything to avoid them. Its sinister four-eyed gaze crossed that of the boy as the beast tried to wrestle for the food.

The War of the Three

@Ryonara

In fact the demon in question is a bit of a mysterious one because of her abilities, so they won't get a clear picture of her until being up close. However, this is it:

Lethe

Lethe

Name: Lethe.
Title: Judge of Oblivion.
Age: ???.
Gender: Female.
Allegiance: The Demons of Hell.
Race: Chthonic Incarnation.
Height: 170 cm.
Weight: 66 kg.

A Judge of the Underworld, responsible for wiping the memories of the mortal souls before than can be reborn, by drowning them in her illusions. Lethe can create illusions that affect and corrupt anything, causing them to slowly lose their sense of self, this power is extremely deadly for humans and their soulless constructs, but most Angels and their allies have eternal essences, grounded in concepts that weaken the effects of Lethe's powers.

Theme

So at least the Machina have descriptions that match such a character as Lethe. I apologize for forgetting to repost it, but there was already a link to her CS somewhere on this OOC. Anyway, take your time.

Deep Ground Online (Hiatus)

I'll be posting tomorrow, lest @TheWindel shank me.

@Mega Birb

"Let the duel begin..."

The War of the Three

@Flamelord

If you want to switch characters it's ok by me, obviously. But, what @The 42nd Gecko said is the same thing I've been telling you. You just need to see things from a different angle with Endian.

The War of the Three

@Flamelord Treat the mooks as your attacks instead of as NPCs you have to spend an action ordering. Pretend that they're Victoire's wolves/bats only instead of summoned out of her ass, you bring your toys with you.

@The 42nd Gecko

Hey!

_{You aren't even wrong...}

The War of the Three

@KoL Poor as.

@The 42nd Gecko

Pff, as deserved it.

Seishun Academy of Swords, a sword forging RP!

<Snipped quote by KoL>

Ditto, I know that we're bending the rules and all but I think that crafting a sword in this should still at least take a solid day or two, we aren't making bird houses out of wood. Pumping out a sword in a few hours is a sure fire way of shoddy quality and not to mention that given we are in an academy, I'd assume that we'd still have classes of some sort or some other form of instructions plus the fact that we're all technically still kids, we can't hammer away at something for hours on end even if we have endless passion, we'd get tired or bored and have to take a decent number of breaks.

@ClocktowerEchos

Oh, yeah, should have addressed this as well. Sorry for the possible double post.

I indeed assume that there should be classes were they learn all kind of processes and lore about sword making and smiting (perhaps even more general subjects to a lesser degree), even if we aren't RPing them (for obvious reasons), otherwise the place shouldn't call itself an academy, but only a very loosely grouped workshop.

And indeed, no matter how passionate one is, the body will always wins sooner or later. Anyone who ever tried to do any kind of hand work knows how taxing that is. It's a good effort in the end (most of the time) but tiresome nonetheless. When you have to do something as hard as smiting, which involves heat, noxious fumes, heavy lifting and hammering as well as mental effort to always keep things under control, it breaks the willing suspension of disbelief very easily to see someone go at it like a robot.
