(LORE) HEALING

The city closest to the border. It is a city filled with traveling people and inns that hold many of the roughest people in Ighten. It's a good place to find weapons and an even better place to find trouble.

ooc: -pants- rar. ^_~

Mizuki sighed contently then fell backwards onto the bed. SHe stared thoughtfully at the ceiling, clutching the bed covers to her bosom as if theywere the only thing that could keep her in bed. She did not want to move from this spot, she was too comfortable, and not to mention had slept little. (and not for the reasons some would think ._. ). She look over at Soran and blushed when she looked at his naked form. She turned her eyes away quickly.

So, that's what he looked like without pants on. Heh... Oh crap... what did she look like to him naked? In a sudden flurr of her own private panic, Mizuki wrapped herself in the bed covers before getting out of bed.

Soran looked out the window. The river outside was glistening with the new morning light. He turned over his shoulder to look at Mizuki, for once thinking that it would be nice to get back in bed. But the sun was up. Besides, they had to get to Rai's school event. It finally occurred to him to blush as Mizuki's flurry of self-consciousness reminded him of his own nakedness. He reddened a little and turned away with a slight grin. This was all new to him, but he would soon be used to it. He was determined to learn what normal, trusting relationships felt like. Today, he felt like he was finally making progress toward it - more than he had in a long time. The meeting at Rai's school would be the same, he decided. He could be a normal resident of the community, at least in that setting. He bent forward and pulled on his pants, then eyed the two gold bangles that lay scattered on the floor where they'd landed in the night. He considered them for a moment, then went to put on a shirt from his drawer, leaving the blades where they'd fallen. He didn't need them or want them today. He took out a dark green shirt he'd somehow been talked into buying, but never wore. He never wore 'real' colors. He held it at arm's length, contemplating it for a moment.

Still wrapped in the blanket--Because she had no idea where her cloths got thrown--Mizuki watched as Soran held the actually colored shirt away from him. She wondered breifly if he had forgotten how to put on a shirt, or if he was considering just being naked. Sighing to herself, she walked over to him after tucking the blanket in a fashion that it looked like she was wearing a toga. She took the shirt out of his hands and placed it over his head, smiling.

"You cannot go shirtless to this event." she told him as if she knew he was thinking it. "You may scare everyone there."

Soran blinked as Mizuki brought his attention back to the present. Half embarassed, he let her help him into the shirt, losing the chance to reconsider wearing it. When it was on, he look over at the mirror, Mizuki's hands resting on his shoulders. He looked unfamiliar, but the color worked on him. Why was he even thinking about such a vain detail? "If they're not scared, how will I know how to socialize with them?" he joked so calmly that it almost sounded like he was serious. It was true that those were the terms by which he was accustomed to interacting with people. People asked a lot less annoying questions when they expected a blade for an answer. He turned to look at her. "On the other hand, I suppose you'll be the life of the party in that garb," he said, touching the front knot of her blanket-gown. It looked like he'd only brushed his fingers on it, but a moment later it fell loose. Soran grinned at his handiwork. He was a rogue, after all. Picking locks and pockets would be no issue for him if he put his mind to it.

Mizuki looked at him in almost comic horror. She didn't look down at her nude form because she was too embarrassed to even move at the moment. Pursing her lips, Mizuki glared at him.

"Soran Nightblade... that was cruel." she simply said and jabbed her finger in his chest.

"Is it so painful to be revealed to me? I feel sort of the opposite," Soran teased gently, uncertainty touching his features. He leaned down and kissed her pursed lips briefly. His palm brushed her cheek as he did so, but he kept his hands to himself. He walked past her quickly, leaning down to get her pants from the floor. It wasn't that he didn't want to touch her more. He hadn't been prepared for the power her beauty struck him with, and he suddenly found it hard to speak while facing her. "I suppose I'll help you get dressed, since you were as kind to me, he said, gathering her clothes calmly.

Her lips softened back, warmed by his lips though brief the kiss was. "You'll dress me then?" she asked him, her voice soft and even underlining a seductive thought. "Normally a man would perfer to keep a woman naked..."
Mizuki walked closer to him and pressed her body close to his, her eyes warm and hinting. Dear Fates what was she doing? She went from modest to a seductress.

Must be the hormones...

Soran caught her shoulders awkwardly as she pressed up to him. "I,uh...a...." he said incoherently, his brain not producing meaningful speech for a moment. She had a strange power over him, though it came in bursts. "Not when other men will be there to watch," he murmured, meeting her eyes possessively. He pulled her arms forward and slid her bra up onto her shoulders, a slightly playful gesture.

Mizuki smirked, still in her seductress phase. "I bet you'd keep me locked in this room if I gave you the option. With the way you're looking at me now... I'd say you'd rather no man look at me. Clothed or naked." She was begining to have fun on her own accord now, no hormones taking over. She reached behind herself to hook her bra in place, still grinning at Soran with a heated look in her eyes.

At this rate...they'll probably never make it to the event.

Rai bound down the hall, fully dressed in a light pink dress with her curly hair pulled back into a loose pony tail with strands of curls hanging out everywhere.

She busted into the room, not bothering to knock, since she rarely needed to.

"READY?!" She screamed happily, grinning from ear to ear. "We need to go! Now!"

Soran blanched and pulled Mizuki in closer agains thim, rotating so that his broad form blocked Rai's view of Mizuki. "Rai, there are bagels on the counter. Spread something on them for the three of us, and we'll eat them on the way," he encouraged her.

Mizuki gasped as Soran embraced her and swooped her around. He was holding her tightly and making it a point to hide her from view. She was blushing now, only because they were almost caught in the act... again. She clutched at Soran's shirt, trying to stay completely out of view from Rai. She didn't even dare breath.

Rai narrowed her eyes for a moment and tilted her head. She knew something was up, she just couldn't put her finger on it....

"Hmm... Okay!" she said and smiled, running out of the room and leaving the door open.

She went and messily put the jam onto the bagles and set them on the table. She scarffed hers down and about three seconds later something awful happened.

Hiccup. She groaned. Hiccup. Hiccup...

Soran ran his hand over the back of Mizuki's head endearingly, and then pulled her shirt over it, knowing they were out of time for this kind of play this morning. A few minutes later they were all finally outside, eating their bagels as they walked briskly toward the school. It was a cool Fall day, but nice enough to be out in. Soran looked down at Rai as she hiccupped again, making no comment. With his nerves the way they were, he would be greatful to make it through the morning without developing the same problem. He rubbed at the bare skin on his wrist. The bracelets he was accustomed to fiddling with weren't available to him today. He reprimanded himself inwardly for even thinking about them.

There was a small crowd gathered outside the schoolhouse as they approached. The headmaster stood on a little stool in the center of the group, bent over to converse with a parent who was asking him a question. WHen he finished, he straightened up again. "Can I have everyone's attention please!" he called, and the group eventually came to attention.

"Welcome to parents' day! Today we'll be featuring a few activities to help the parents both interact with their children and get to know each other. As the crime rate in our city continues to slowly drop, we'd like to stress the quality of our growing educational system so that Hepian can soon be seen as a safe place to live and raise a family!" A round of applause and a few shouts came from the group before the headmaster went on. "The first thing we'd like to do is get into a circle and introduce ourselves. Parents, please stand with your children!" he said cheerfully, his manner somewhat different from the one they had seen the other day. Soran's jawline tightened as the others began bustling around him, spreading out into a ring of little family groups. He took a step closer to Mizuki and Rai as if he were being surrounded.

Rai held both Mizuki and Soran's hand. She wanted as all the children gave there names, which she already knew, and then it was her and her family's turn, "Rai!" she said and laughed, not sure if she should use Sunstorm as her last name. So she didn't give one.
