Castle Garden

2011-12-30 [Sicarius]: Silver eyes looked hard at the girl when she mentioned the word 'Witch'. She was silent for a moment, then nodded, "You could say that..." Sashi meant nothing by it...not like the others...you would think I would no longer react to that...an inward sigh, Ah well...

"All magic is interesting..." she said, to keep the conversation going, "...and I have had many years to learn my craft..." At least if what I have read about developing such talents is to be believed... "...I take it you have yet to learn?"

2011-12-30 [Yudan333]: Her mixcolored eyes went to her as she spoke then tapped her chin and shook her head, "Nope. I already have learned all the magic I can. All I can do is change form. I am an anthro not a magician. Though I could wish I could do more of course; though I am quite satisfied with what I got." She sounded as though trying to speak really fast but still sound smart.

2011-12-31 [Sicarius]: She thought for a moment, "...What if you could?" words were spoken slowly. Unstable she may be, but what small tricks I could teach her would not harm any...and would perhaps cause her much amusement should her personality become more melancholy...

"An anthro..." she tilted her head slightly to the right, "...it has been years since I last saw one...May I ask what form you take?"

2012-04-22 [Yudan333]: Sashi's eyes lit up brightly and smirked, "I take the form of a Chinese panda!" She said it so proudly as though she was in some sort of movie and that was her own catch phrase. "But not the normal kind. I look like a human but a panda as well. But if I take full panda form i look rather vicious!" She then recalled her previous comment, "What do you mean what if I could? You mean I could LEARN THIS!?" She drew closer taking her hands in her rather soft strong ones, "Then teach me!"

2012-04-22 [Sicarius]: Silver eyes watched the girl as she spoke, and, when Sashi had finished she gave a sage nod. Panda anthro, hmm? Very rare, those...there were only two in the city I used to dwell in...She gave her head a mental shake to clear it of returning memories.

At the eager plea, the Inspectress gave a fleeting smile. "I'll teach you what I can...though I would suggest you not get discouraged if it takes a while to get the hang of it." Removing her hands from Sashi's grasp, Faell moved a small distance away and extended her left hand out and toward the ground. She moved slowly in a circle, pointer finger extended. Three times she moved about in this manner, face calm, features unreadable...even as a silver circle of light appeared following the path she traced. When this third navigation was complete, Faell then stepped to the middle.

Kneeling, she drew a symbol in the center. The ogham character Coll...this would set the tone for learning...Her work done, she gave a curt nod, then rose and beckoned to the girl.

2012-04-23 [Yudan333]: Sashi watched hard her eyes wide in concentration, not even blinking as though in fear of missing something imperative for the learning experience. She watched her make a glowing circle and stepped in the middle of it. Sashi had blinked when she was beckoned as though it was her turn. She shrugs lightly, "I don't think I'm good at creating things. I'm actually rather destructive. It's odd. you see panda as a rare opportunity to see and yet with me it's rather obnoxious I'm sure." She looked to her and thought a moment, "The only power i have is shifting and super strength."

2012-04-23 [Sicarius]: Silver eyes were unreadable as she beckoned Sashi forward once more. "No," she gave her head a slight shake, "this is just a way to allow your lessons to begin...it is a place, at this moment, where the rules that apply outside of it, fail to govern what is within...It will allow you to tap into more of what gives you your gift of changing form and exceptional strength...to expand it...If you wish to begin your first lesson you must step inside this circle..."

Destructive, hm? the Inspectress gave an inner chuckle, </i>there's a way to turn that to one's advantage, especially in the Craft...</i>

2012-04-23 [Yudan333]: She shrugged and stepped into the circle and grew tens feeling as though a gust of wind rushed up her body making her skirt flay wildly around her bare rear. She smiled rather enjoying the feeling of slight power as though tapping into the actual power she had.

2012-04-23 [Sicarius]: Silver eyes closed briefly, and when they opened, she was clad in a simple royal purple gown, a silver knotted cord was fastened around her waist. "And now the lesson begins...let us see if destruction is your only talent..." Left hand rose to trace the letter luis or rowan. "This symbol," she said, "has several different purposes...for now it will signify personal empowerment...that is, if you have something you wish to do, it will help strengthen your will...now tell me, what do you wish to learn tonight?"

2012-04-23 [Yudan333]: Sashi watched her appearance change as well as the tones of color then tilted her head and smiled a bit, "Wait... say what?" She stared at the symbol then stood there looking to her as she asked what she wanted to learn, "Um.." She tapped her chin, "OH! How to steal eyeballs!" She saw the womans face, "What? I wouldn't mind collecting some. Different colors too. I would need a rather large jar to hold them. Perhaps several." Was she a witch in a past life? This woman was either diabolical or just random. "Perhaps how to vaporize! that would be handy for escaping or appearing somewhere..." She rubbed under her chin giving a small yawn, "OH how to never sleep! That would be a fun one."

2012-04-23 [Sicarius]: Faell merely blinked at the girl's chattering. "To be true I could certainly help you with taking people's eyes...but that would grow boring after a time...and there isn't much need for them save for very ancient potions...Likewise to cause something to vaporize...or to teleport...but both are far more likely to backfire on the user..." Lips twitched only slightly at the last suggestion by her pupil.

"Now that is something we can start with..." Her left hand rose and once more she traced another letter from the ogham alphabet: tinne. "I want you to concentrate on being awake and energetic as you copy this symbol into the air with your writing hand...The more effort you put forth the stronger the effect will be...once it glows a brilliant green I want you to step forward and walk through it..."

2012-04-23 [Yudan333]: She smiled as she watched her trace a letter and she memorized her hand strokes with ease as she wrote calligraphy all the time! She was getting excited and a bit anxious as she watched then smiled as she did the strokes quickly and rather quick and violently. With her energy it's a wonder if she did sleep anyways. Seeing it glow a bright green which looked as though it wanted to explode she stepped through and the green actually did explode behind here and she threw up her hands, "TOUCHDOWN!" Well their was a hint of destruction but she seemed to hard headed to know it.

2012-04-23 [Sicarius]: Silver gaze watched every movement. Quick learner, she thought, and while her movements are violent, they waste no energy...yes, definitely a spark in this one...

At the explosion, Faell gave a nod, "Very well done...now tell me, how are your energy levels? Any difference that you notice?"

((Meh crap post...cannot think...))

2012-04-23 [Yudan333]: Sashi simply smiled and nodded her head, "Hell yea! They feel like their over a thousand! Okay well maybe they tripe-ed but yea! I feel it! Like MOTIVATION IN SPRING!" The comment made no sense however it amused her.

2012-04-23 [Sicarius]: "Good," was the only reply she gave in response to Sashi's rambling. A short silence, then the detective spoke again. "You say you are more destructive than creative...and yet look at what you just finished doing...Now, I'm going to collapse the circle, and I want you to attempt to draw the symbol again...it won't show up on the first try...it will take patience and hard work...given your nature it shouldn't take more than an hour to get the symbol to glow a soft green...when you've accomplished that, come find me in the garden...consider this your first exam."

And with that, LaChance left the scene, footsteps making no sound on the stone pavement. Silver eyes twinkled merrily. She is unstable, but not unteachable...and who knows this might have a positive effect on her moods...

2012-04-24 [Yudan333]: Sashi nods as she saw her collapse the circle but was able to conjure her energy with ease this time and drew the strokes. She concentrated hard on them able to see them grow brighter in color at each time she did so. "DO it!" She drew the signal and the green glowed brightly.

2012-04-26 [Sicarius]: Silver eyes stared into the darkness surrounding her. Leaves...flowers...silence...a wouldbe Craft user plying her newly found skill...It has been ages since I took up the mantle of teaching...ages more since I found myself waking to a world that I did not understand...A world that did not understand me...My memories before that day are nonexistant...Truthfully, I still do not know how I managed to do what I did...

A soft sigh escaped her, I should be in my room... and then Faell shook her head, Doing what? Drinking tea? Looking over files that contain cases that took place in a city that no longer exists? Sleep in hopes of having a different dream? An inward snort of disbelief...not likely.

Minutes passed, and still she stood, looking into the inky blackness...waiting for the wouldbe pupil to appear...

2012-04-26 [Yudan333]: Sashi quickly rushed across the garden her boots hit the ground hard causing the ground to lightly weep. She leapt up over some hedges and ran a corner seeing the woman and ran up to her and was able to stop, "HEY! I finished it! Pretty nifty! It turned the color of my HAIR! It was that bright! I swear! You shoulda seen it!"

2012-04-26 [Sicarius]: Faell's lips twitched upward slightly as she looked down at the excited anthro, "And who's to say I did not in fact see it?" Left hand rose and drew a few symbols before holding her hand palm up. There in the center was mirror, and within that mirror, one could see Sashi practicing diligently until she'd managed just what she'd described to the Inspectress. "You did well...especially since it was your first lesson...If you want to learn more I'd practice that until you can do such a thing in your sleep...you'll need to be able to do it with little though in your lessons to come..." a soft chuckle, something very rare coming from Faell, "...for your next lesson I'll show you how I did that crown of flowers...but for now, you should be sleeping...we can work on that tomorrow evening if you wish...and remember what I said...keep practicing that symbol...it will come in handy when you find yourself becoming bored due to having to repeat a task so often..."

2012-04-30 [Sigyn, The Faithful Wife]: Monet wandered into the garden, barefooted and wearing nothing but a sheer nightgown and a flower clip in her hair. She smiled a little at the amount of life here. Carefully, she stepped off the path and into one of the flower beds. Her steps were light and carefully placed so she didn't step on anything other than dirt. She let the Earth squish between her toes and giggled. Silently, she wondered why the world outside wasn't like this. She wished it was. But in the few days that she had been here, she noticed that everyone was living here, but none seemed to really be living together. Each person seemed to carry around their own world, keeping most others out, even fighting sometimes. Why couldn't they all just get along? Shouldn't they be working on making everything else as pretty as this garden? The Earth wanted to live again, but instead, everyone was in here, and not fixing what was out there. It wasn't fair.

2012-07-18 [Yudan333]: Sashi's blue and green eye locked on the other and blinked, "YOU SAW IT! WHAT HOW?" She questioned with a pout look on her face. She huffed and then looked up to the sky to the moon losing track of what she was saying before returning her attention, "What?" She seemed utterly confused then smiled, "OH yea that don't worry I will. A LOT more now especially since I got nothing but time on my hand! Ha ha! I will soon master this art HAHA!" She grinned and blinked, "Sleep? Oh right i should huh. Well then I shall be off!" She took her hand shaking it firmly then turned and bolted leaving a trail of smoke behind her.
