[closed] I wish it could be sunday when I wake up every day

[lyall]

WHO: Lyall, Rin Faolain
WHAT: Oh, hello!
WHERE: The Great Hall
WHEN: 13 June 2066, Sunday around 1PM
SAFE FOR WORK? Yup!
OTHER NOTES: Babbus meeting -w-



[ Lyall heads to the Great Hall after she finishes up her interview with Lia. She's learned how to tell the time on the clocks now and not rely to much on the angle of the sun outside. When she steps in, she ducks her head and keeps mostly to herself, making a beeline for the food table to see if there are any more of the bread she likes so much available ( croissants, Master Raura had called them. )

There aren't any, but that's alright. She piles some rice shyly on her place instead and goes for the meat before settling down at a table in the far corner away from people. It gives off the impression that she's shy, but if you're particularly smart and observant, you'll note that she's also watching people like she's observing them. ]

[magicmissile]

Wow, really?

[ He crouches down so he's at your level. He's still smiling at you, because he can see that you're not comfortable with it. He's read about changelings, knows about them and what happens to them when they get taken by the Fae. It's not... pretty.

He doesn't know Lyall's circumstances, but she's a kid. She shouldn't be sad. Kids being sad are the worst. He should know. He lived in an orphanage with lots of kids being sad half the time. ]

You must be really strong, then, huh? And you can do a lot of stuff better than other kids.

[lyall]

[ u-u U-UM.

She actually can't deny the first part... even if she's not so sure about the second. ]

I can fight good? [ She hasn't really thought of it as too much of a good thing. It was a skill she learned to get good at as a matter of survival. ] I do not have the elegance that the junior oni-tsukai do though.

[ Yes, that's a clear note of admiration in her voice. ]

[magicmissile]

Eh, [ He shrugs, then nods to your uniform. ] that's why you're gonna study at Balamb, yeah? So you can learn what they learn, and be like them someday.

Erin is gonna learn loooooooots so he can be juuuuust like his idol!

[ Eyeroll. (But she may note that it's the fond sort.) ] Shut up, Madge.

[lyall]

[ uwu He is so nice. ]

I hope to do just that.

[ Blinking up at Rin now. ] Will you be going to Balamb as well?

[ He looks right about the age of someone who would. ]

[magicmissile]

Yeah, starting tomorrow. [ Look, he's excited about it. ]

I'm in the Special Cases program. You?

[lyall]

[ O-Oh...! ]

I am the same. [ u-u ] Perhaps I will have classes with you?

[ And then at least she will know one more person and not feel so lost. >.> ]

[magicmissile]

Totally. I think I have most of it... except Weaponry and Firearms. [ Because he has noodles for arms and he'd really rather not wield weapons. Plus, this way, he can avoid Taning! ] Got Self-Defense, instead.

Which one did you take?

[lyall]

[ Oh :c You are not in the same class. ]

My Ki-- [ that sounds so strange, let her amend that. ] My guardian agreed to let me take Weaponry for my morning class. I have fought before and know the basics of Self-Defense, but I have no skill with weaponry.

[ She also does not understand Firearms, although it would have been nice to study under Father Dragon's Beloved Rethe. ]

Perhaps I will see you in the classes after?

[magicmissile]

[ Why they'd let kids handle weapons will be beyond him, but then again, they're training to be Hunters of the Vigil, so... Eh. ]

Yeah, I got The Fifth World with the Kaiser right after Self-defense. I guess we'll see each other then?[ :D? ]

[lyall]

[ She beams at that. ]

Yes! [ u-u Was that too loud? UM. ]

I would like that, very much.

[ .________. ]

[magicmissile]

Cool. [ :D ]

Well, uh... Guess I should leave you to your, um, lunch?

[lyall]

[ That's prompting her to glance back at her unfinished food. ERM. ]

W... would you like to... join me?

[ You don't have to, but it would be nice if you did. If you are busy though she will understand. ]

[magicmissile]

Oh, um! [ He looks around for the table he'd left-- and true enough, someone's cleared his plate, and a new group had taken over it. ]

Yeah, okay. I'll just get something to drink. [ Because he left his milk carton at that table and he wasn't done with it, boo. ] You want anything? [ :D? ]

[lyall]

[ U-um.

u-u She is quietly pleased that you will be joining her. ]

I am alright.

[ Translation: she has absolutely no idea what to ask, even were she comfortable actually asking -- which she is not. ]

[magicmissile]

[ That makes Rin chuckle and shake his head a bit. ]

I'll go get a juice box for me an' you, then.
