{Is it} Gifted Boarding School {Your Style?}

[Serenity]

Eyes of russet lifted slightly, smiling as she found herself blushing at the endorsement of her work.
"I am Ae'oko, and thank you for the compliment," she whispered, thanking him silently as she took her papers from both Kayin and Hex. Seemingly centralized around putting her belongings up, she completely forgot about what the male had requested to know. Shaking her multi-dyed hair, she looked up with a short smile. "Um...yes. Actually, I heard you and Hex running and caught sight of you as you were falling..." She stopped busying herself with her preoccupations as she stared at her hands for a moment, relaxing them to stare at her palms before clenching them into fists. "Surprised I actually was able to take control of the dark energy and convert it into puppet strings. I worked on that for so long... Guess it only worked cause I knew you would get hurt," she sighed, looking over toward Hex to witness her surveying both Kayin and herself.
Her head tilted to give a confused look before smiling slightly as she started finishing up her work, neatly putting up her papers back into her side-pack...before stopping to stare at one. It was the dragon head from before that Hex had retrieved when her papers scattered over the school grounds.
The dark fire seemed so lively that staring long enough at it made the intensity of its heat seem real, the motion of it coming forth from the paper to flicker before your face. Its fangs seemed itch at being free from the entrapment it laid upon, wanting to come out and clamp onto something. Curled and pointed horns also had the same intentions of its teeth, only to trash against prey and foe. The sharp stare of its eyes held a secret within... A soft secret like as if it were trapped in the body of evil. Sighing, she remembered why she drew this. Smiling, she looked toward Hex and Kayin, setting the paper and the floor before standing up. She was offering it away... Almost like a thanks, because for once in her life... She didn't feel so invisible.

Kayin heard Hex's sassy remark and tried to laugh it off. "Fine, but I won the race to the stairs." A smile appeared on his face. Kayin quickly turned his attention to Ae'oko. It had nearly slipped his mind to thank the girl who had helped him from fallen face first on the floor, "It's a pleasure to meet you Ae'oko. And I have to thank you for helping me. It be rather embarrassing and probably a bit painful if I had fell. Twice in one day would off been bad."

Ae'oko placed her artwork back on the ground. Kayin was a bit puzzled by this action. But it seemed to bring a smile to her face. He looked down at he drawing, it had such amazing detail. The sharp fangs that seemed to reach out at the one who gazed upon it. The eyes that seemed to look into one's soul. It was truely amazing. Kayin looked at Ae'oko as if to say why.

ooc: Lol, sorry. Haven't been paying attention.

Ae'oko's gaze watched Kayin, then looked back toward Hex to see what she would say. But, noticing the male's sudden look of confusion which crossed his face, a small smile was only to break her features.
"I don't know who may want it...but...In my own way of thanks, I am giving it away," she replied silently, blowing away a strand of ruby hair. Suddenly realizing why they may ask that, she blushed slightly, copper eyes falling onto the ground.
"Today I felt like I wasn't so...invisible. I have felt like that the past couple days ever since I finally left my home..." She paused as she seemed to choke on feelings, but quickly pushed it away as she starting to twiddle her thumbs together.
"Today is probably the best I have felt... Now getting to talk a little more," she added, eyes still remaining on the ground as her gaze occasionally drifted toward the shadows of Hex and Kayin.

It seemed that being talked to like a person for once had brought her great happiness. This was what didn't seemed normal in the lives of the gifted. Always looked down upon as freaks of society. The family that said they would love you no matter what casts them aside. And even with finding a place for your own kind you're still discriminated.

"I'm glad that you're feeling better. Leaving home for what seems to be a new life is hard for us all. But when you have someone to speak to instead of staying in the shadows makes one happier." Kayin bent down and retreived the drawing from the ground and smiled at Ae'oko, "If you need anyone to talk to just come to me or Hex." He flashed a smile to her. The last thing Kayin didn't want was to have anyone ucomfortable around him.

[requias]

[Net was down, sorry *hides*]

Hex grinned quietly, nodding after Kayin's words, "And double his offer for me, I'm new here as well...and could always use the company...." her eyes were quietly fixxed on the drawing as she paused, she was in a daze, her big eyes wide and unfocused for a moment before she gave her head a shake, "And thank you for the drawing love, as I said before.....It's absolutely amazing.....as all of your work seems..." she looked up into the girl's eyes, a soft smile on her lips, "And thank you again for keeping someone's ego atleast slightly in tact" she nodded towards Kayin, grinning after her words, a slightly sarcastic and playful gleam in her eyes, "He might need you around more often....But in all seriousness.......We're heading up to the dorms...or....were....I have no idea where I'm going.....do you? You're more than welcome to come with us if you want..."
She glanced at Kayin as in waiting for his agreement, right brow quirked ever so slightly, the left side of her face, as usual, hidden in darkness.

[Wow.......craptacular posting.....I'm sorry]

[Serenity]

ooc: *scratches head and yawns* If anyone gets piercings in their cardiledge, I must warn you.... It is impossible to sleep for the longest time. *Hits head on desk and closes eyes* Sleep...need sleep...

Ae'oko lifted her head up slightly, a small, yet warm, smile playing upon her features as she nodded to each. "I will do that," she whispered, feeling better to know she could rely on two people to talk to.
Looking towards the stairs, and then back towards Hex, she silently laughed as the female messed around with Kayin. "Hmm," she sighed, allowing her right palm to slowly reach up towards her gaze, staring silently at her hand. Closing her eyes she focused her energy into her finger tips, slowly allowing copper eyes to finally open up once more, watching long strings of shadows to spray forth from her fingers, swaying around freely as she looked towards Kayin...then Hex. "I can't control it too well when I try to do it for fun... I had better control of it when Kayin was falling..."
Suddenly, the dark energy vanished, causing the female to sigh. "Didn't mean for that to happen," she muttered slightly.
"Um... Yeah, I suppose I will join you guys to...wherever you are going," she whispered, finally placing each hand into her jean pockets.

Kayin watched silently as Ae'oko tried to use her power. The darkness faded away from her fingertips, "Hmm...I'm sure the teaching staff here can help gain a little more control over your power." He visited the memories of the past and laughed silently, "I remember the first months here when I didn't have complete control over my power." Pointing to a sprinkler nearby, it went off. Spray water across the marble floor. "That used to happen everywhere I went in the school." With a wave of his hand the water ceased pouring down, "We were heading to the dorms. Let's continue where we left off."
