Legacy of Harena

"Of course, of course." Livia sighed. "The library has a vast array of knowledge." Livia walked in, sighing tiredly as Marise greeted the two of them. "I'm sure Marise would love to accompany you there."

"Sister," Marise sighed, giving Livia a displeased look. "You're the one who offered to help them in the first place."

"Mhm, I did...but I am not feeling well. Charlotte helped a little, but After that I need to rest a bit." Livia turned, starting to walk calmly back up the stairs to her room.

"I see," Marise frowned. "Do get some rest then, sister. I shall bring some tea up later if you won't be down for dinner within the next hour or so." Marise then turned to her guests, smiling again. "I do apologize. She gets tired easily if she expends too much of her magic." Truthfully, Livia played a dangerous game with that. Willfully letting a spirit possess you? It was a unique, and quite a creative usage of it but so very dangerous. One could easily lose themselves like that. Well, no matter. She trusted Livia.

"Ahem, anyways, It would be my pleasure to accompany you to the Library...but it would be rude of me to at least not offer you dinner here? It's been a long day and I'm sure after whatever happened you could use some rest - but If you'd like to set off I will accompany you regardless." Marise smiled pleasantly.

"I'm not so hungry myself, but your hospitality is welcome." Charlotte replied. "More importantly...what is wrong with Livia? I aided her a bit with some potions of mine but it seems to be something not entirely physical in nature."

"Mhm, you are correct in that. I...do not wish to speak of it as she would dislike that, but perhaps ask her yourself before you leave if you're curious." Charlotte simply hummed thoughtfully at Marise's reply, looking somewhat troubled before turning to Himeko. She quickly dismissed the thought and turned back to Himeko.

"Well, it's up to you. I vote we get moving sooner rather than later. We can eat elsewhere."

Livia

---

"Oh my," Livia smiled faintly. "That would be quite the honor. I've yet to had the pleasure of teaching one such as yourself." This was quite the interesting proposition. She had made attempts in the past to foster relationships with the elves or fey for example, but had always been met with stalwart opposition from both sides. She could understand it, of course. She herself had espoused the need for humans to stand on their own without interference of any sort of supernatural entities, be they gods or demons.

"...if that is indeed true." Livia gave Astrid a serious gaze, studying the elf. "If you are indeed as good as you claim, then I certainly see no reason to deny you apprenticeship." She made a gesture, waving her hands to the empty area in the foyer. "Show me what you can do then."

Chione

---

"UUurgh," Chione didn't mind being carried too much it seemed. If anything, she seemed to relax far too easily, letting her arms hang limply over Kozue's arms. "I apologize. I'm not used to being this...out of shape. I used to be able to run across all of the Pyramids and palace without so much as a hint of effort..." She sighed, shaking her head as Kozue carried her. "No matter...It will be easy enough to get back into shape again...with your help, if you don't mind."

Avaline & Sorcha

---

The spider confidently stood as tall on its legs as it could. Ha! Take that cat! She wouldn't be subject to your silliness any longer! It was too small to be seen, but it was giving Maoin a mildly smug smirk as best it could with its spider parts. Sorcha simply returned to her food, waving Maoin off and not commenting further on the matter until Luna decided to leave.

"Mhm...well, have a nice day Luna."

"A-ah! Master Luna!" Avaline suddenly stopped piling her face with food, slithering across the ground until she was practically in Luna's face. "Take me with you!~" She had her hands clasped together in front of her, giving the knight a hopeful look. She was a smart, clever, intelligent lizard so she had to appear so as well! Going to classes and doing scholarly things would make her seem even more so, yes! Perfect!

"G-gwuh?!" Sorcha nearly choked on a slice of meat at Avaline's suggestion.

"Pleeeeease?" Her eyes were practically sparkling with enthusiasm.

"Humph," As soon as Sorcha finished not choking, she stood up from her chair and gave Avaline an unimpressed look before casting her gaze towards Luna. "If that one goes, then I am going as well."

Cocoa

---

"Otille...?" Cocoa furrowed her eyebrows, scrunching her nose in thought as the mage started pulling her. "Y-you know Otille?" To cocoa that meant a few things. Either this woman knew Otille which was unlikely since she had never seen her before...or she had done something dastardly to Otille, and she was about to be turned into well done steak!

"N-no!" Cocoa stomped her hoof on the ground, digging her hooves into the ground and not following this strange woman into the building. "Y-you did something with Otille didn't you! Let me go or I'll beat you up! I'm warning you! I pulled a cart weighing nearly a ton here!" She was doing her best to be intimidating, but only managed to succeed in appearing adorably angry.

Lyssa

---

Out of the smoke, the first thing to appear was a certain black fox.

"I can't believe you roped me into this." She took a few steps towards Fia, sitting on the ground in front of her. "Hmph, is this the one we're 'rescuing' from a demon maid and her lesbian lover?"

"Yes!" Lyssa took a defensive pose. She looked fine as always. "Anything yet Ayumi?" She moved around Fia, standing between the redhead and the door.

"Hmm...yep, you might want to move."

"H-huh?" The door to the room was slammed open again, revealing a very cold stare from a very angry maid as she looked around the room. "Ah...its the demon maid! I'll take Fia and run!!"

"On it!" Without giving Fia much of a choice, Lyssa scooped FIa up in her arms as Ayumi moved in front of Cynthia, giving the pink haired demon just enough time to scoot past...forgetting about the window entirely. "Heya! Normally this would be the point where we fight but I'll be honest. Losing is more my-geh!" Ayumi found Cynthia's hand around her forehead. "I suppose it's too late to ask for a rope and some handcuffs-wah!~" Cynthia's foot met Ayumi's stomach and fueled with righteous maid fury she sent the ninja flying across the ground into the wall behind her.

Gwynn

---

"H-huh? Maoin?..." Oh great, the one person she was trying to avoid. Why was the cat at a tavern of all places?

Gwynn

Maoin was right - she was dressed far differently than what she normally wore. It wasn't a dress per say, but it was definitely not her usual preferred clothing of adventurer attire. White garments, with fur trimmings and some metal gauntlets and greaves for good measure. Well kept and clean too, and she didn't seem to carry that edge of roughness around her previously.

"...h-hey." She stuttered out, inhaling deeply. It was alright, she could do this. "W-well, some things happened while I was out." She replied, though she really didn't seem keen on speaking about it to the cat. She didn't want to involve Maoin in her messes, as usual. "...Y-you'll be happy to know I'm giving up pirating...I'll still be sailing, but well, for different reasons." She fidgeted uncomfortably for a few seconds before shaking her head.

"A-anyways, I have a meeting with the headmistress. I need to go."

Justice Heart - 20 Years Later (Magical Girl Spoof)

Isana Seiger

Sofa shopping

---

Thankfully, the little incident hadn't happened too far from their apartment so it was an easy enough walk back. Just...one small problem...

"Hey!" A cameraman crew and a reporter were chasing after her, likely wanting to get a nice juicy interview with a former magical girl. Isana merely sighed, shoulders slumping in mild annoyance. "You're Justice Gaia, aren't you? Or would you prefer we call you by your solo name of 'Luminous Vale?" The excitable reporter asked. Isana had to refrain from audibly groaning. She'd like to just send these two flying, but that would cause more problems than they'd help.

"Hmm," Isana frowned, stopping and turning to look back at the reporters. "I'd prefer to get back to my Chinese food, and to convince my roommate to by the most expensive couch she can get her hands on." With that simple statement, she stomped her foot on the ground as the earth began to rumble. "Rampart Castle!"

Several, large spikes of earth erupted in the ground between her and the reporters, spreading a thick wall of stone across the entire street, causing some of the street to suddenly have itself closed off and the reporters to have to jump backwards lest they find themselves stuck on top of the rampart. Isana of course, continued on her way back to her apartment. The rampart would dissolve by itself in a few hours, and it was easy enough to return to the scene of the incident.

The building was empty as it ever was at this time, save for someone joining her on the elevator who was giving her a few odd looks. Easy enough to pass her attire off as Cosplay or something. Once back inside she finally transformed back to her regular appearance - meaning just a plain white t-shirt and her underwear. First things first, she picked up the remains of her Chinese food off the ground, a deep, mournful lamenting sigh leaving her lips.

Well, whatever. Her computer was fine so she went about redressing herself in her usual attire. Cheap, but good looking red suit with a black tie and dress pants. After collecting what she could salvage of the Chinese food into a single carton, she headed back down. For now, she just watched idly from the sidelines again. She'd drag Alice off to the furniture store once the crowd dispersed a bit. For now, she'd enjoy the rest of her Chinese food that she could as she watched the rest of the events unfold.

Pokémon: Start

@PlatinumSkink

Aha, well, I've never wrestled myself but I do have Tae-kwon-do/Karate training.

I could be wrong, but I think wrestling is more about grapples and pins rather than brute force. Effectively winning attempting to prevent your opponent from moving. I think Claire, if she's nimble enough could probably win if she could get a good grapple going in her favor. That said, Pangoro's ridiculously strong, so yeah I think I agree with the short version with Claire gonna be losing.

I'll get a post up sometime in the next few days or so~

Livia

---

"Dirty work? Perish the thought." Livia smiled. "I give everyone who wishes to learn a fair chance." Since the Elf said she could deal with Otille first, then she would. Easily done, since she knew dealing with Sorcha would be fairly quick and easy. She gave Otille a friendly smile as she continued.

"I do so apologize for not telling you about the dragon and the fact it was likely her treasure," Livia chuckled. "But Sorcha is harmless, believe me. I've known her for at least...a decade now? She's grumpy most of the time but well meaning. She'd never hurt a fly. She might throw a few lightning bolts in its direction but never kill them." She smiled, taking a quiet sip of her tea. The comment probably didn't help put Otille at ease. "Speak with her again - Dragons at least respect those who do not cower before them. And if she doesn't see reason do inform me. I'll handle her myself...or just speak with Miss Lightsword. The dragon...well, lets just say the knight has tamed the beast." She chuckled.

Chione

---

"Whaaaa?!" Chione watched Kozue disappear, only to reappear nearby on a tree branch not far from them. "H-how..." She wheezed, stopping for a moment to catch her breath. Urgh, she wasn't used to being out done. In fact, in her past life she prided herself on being the best runner and acrobat around, but now she was reduced to a sweaty, hot, panting mess...

...

Heh.

"OOf..." Oh sweet desert sands she couldn't do that, but she couldn't let this priestess win either. Ow, her pride and dignity. "Fine," Chione inhaled. If she had her staff this could be more easily done, but she'd at least make an attempt. "I shall meet your challenge!" Before Kozue could react, she'd find Chione backing up a bit for a running start before sprinting towards the tree, placing a foot upon its tree trunk and vaulting herself up it before kicking off of it and making a leap for the branch. For a brief second, it looked like she was going to make it.

But alas, such was not meant to be.

Chione gave a sharp yelp of surprise as she just barely undershot the distance of the jump, smacking into the branch with her midsection before promptly falling onto the ground on her back with a surprisingly heavy sounding thud.

"...Kooooozue," She whined as she attempted to catch her breath. "Bring...me...some water...urgh."

Avaline & Sorcha

---

The spider leaned into the pettings. No one could see it, but it had closed its eyes and was making a best attempt at a tiny little chirping noise.

At the question though, Sorcha blinked before frowning as Avaline continued to stuff her face with enough food.

"I see no reason why Sol can't." Sorcha said with a sigh. "But Luna, the rooms already crowded enough. The bed can barely hold the three of us and...Avaline," She called the wyrm by her name, but it was clear she was having to force herself to do so. "Does not even have a bed." She looked over to Sol and the spider. A spider as well? That was troubling. A spider as a familiar. Certainly spiders were helpful in their own way. Took care of bugs and other insect pests without making too much of a nuisance themselves. "Perhaps we should wait until We've gotten ourselves a new place of stay." She looked over to Maoin. "I have already asked Maoin to speak with Livia about it."

Cocoa

---

"A-ah! H-have you seen a lost little girl? A tiny thing that can barely take care of herself?" Cocoa stuttered worriedly out. "She's my lover and can't do anything without me and she wasn't with me when we woke up this morning-ah wait! Don't run!" Cocoa called after the man with a whine. Ah, why were they all running from her? She just wanted to help! So she may have accidentally ran into someone, or knocked over a vendors stall...and almost...killed someone by kicking her hoof in his face.

Accidents!

Aetheria's words initially fell on deaf ears. Thankfully her magic seemed to have a mild effect on the worried, mildly hysterical cow. She was now fidgeting in place, worriedly looking all over the streets for any sign of Otille.

"Uhm uhm!" Cocoa stuttered out as Aetheria questioned her. "My lover-Otille she wasn't there when I woke up this morning and she didn't say anything to me." Cocoa made a worried frown. "Oooh what if something bad's happened to her? What if that mean dragon snatched her up in the middle of the night? Wha-what if she...found another cow!" That seemed to be the worst suggestion the cow came to the conclusion of.

Lyssa

---

"So, what are we doing today, Lyssa?" Ayumi was somehow standing upside down outside of one of the headmistress's Villa's rooms.

"The same thing we do every day, Ayumi." Lyssa was standing on the roof above her.

"Take over the world?"

"Whaaa, you silly. No. Eat candy and throw snowballs at people! And also save Fia from this impregnable fortress of devilish affairs!" Lyssa giggled. She jumped, doing a one eight off the roof and grabbing the edge of it with her hands, swinging into the window and shattering it upon impact.

"Hiiiiya!~" Lyssa landed in the room, rolling across the ground and coming to a kneeling halt inside of the room. Ayumi wasn't far behind, appearing in a poof of smoke. "Operation, begin!"

The Void Lurkers

@Hydrophobe

Well, this looks neat. I certainly wasn't expecting what was given with the title, but that just makes me more interested,

Red Dragon Bone Guild

@Jerkchicken

I have a few questions, but I shall refrain from asking.

I will formally withdraw interest.

Good luck with the RP.

~Removed~

Red Dragon Bone Guild

@Jerkchicken

Alright, cool then.

Sounds perfect for what I had in mind. Thankies muchly, I'll get a CS up hopefully in an hour or so~

Red Dragon Bone Guild

@Jerkchicken

Expanding on that then, would there be some magic or abilities that allows them to take a humanoid form of some sort? I imagine if they're skilled spell casters some more skilled ones could have some sort of control over their body via water magic of some sort, or just being able to control it.

If not, that's cool - just trying to figure out the limits of the do's and don't~
