Noticing that his face had gone an impressive shade of red, it took a tremendous amount of effort to keep her smile from dipping towards the I-want-to-laugh end of the scale. [color=yellow]"Thanks, Gus"[/color] Saqui quipped as she settled into her seat. Her eyes flickered from Gus to Brunhilde, clearly intrigued by the notebook she had been scribbling in. Unfortunately her curiosity couldn't be sated with a quick peek, mainly because from where she was sat everything was upside down and her eyesight just wasn't good enough to read the girls writing. One of her brow's twitched up when she was given the hold your horses signal, though she complied without complaint. She couldn't help but squint at the notebook, trying to make out what it was Brunhilde was reading. In the short pause, she reached for her fork and peered back over at Gus noticing the ginger way he was looking between them and his food. Turning her attention back to Brunhilde as she spoke, Saqui gave her a nod of acknowledgement coupled with a brief smile. She couldn't help but wonder why Brunhilde had searched through the notebook, which from what she saw was chock-a-block with information, before answering such a simple question. Listening to Brunhilde, she pushed her fork through the food on her plate and peeked over at the open notebook to admire the rough sketch work. Her attention was pulled away by the rather direct set of questions she was asked. Her eyes narrowed and her eyebrow twitched up questioningly as she looked up at Brunhilde. [i]"I'm a first year air user, myself. If you're new here, I might end up with you in some of my classes."[/i] Though her expression softened somewhat at that snippet of news [color=yellow]"Ditto"[/color] She chimed in with another warm yet relieved smile. Alongside this, seeing the tattoo on the air users hand settled a few of the questions floating around her mind, namely that she probably wasn't doing a piece for the school paper. Saqui had heard of Amnesia before but only a small amount, not enough to truly understand the weight of it. Lifting her fork hand up, she rested the side of her hand against her mouth and turned to look at Gus as he answered first. [color=yellow]"Blood element? You can manipulate blood?"[/color] Saqui blurted out, her eyes alight with curiosity as she dropped her hand from her mouth barely allowing Gus to finish what he was saying. Realising how sudden her outburst had been, Saqui cleared her throat and leant back in her chair, adopting a rather sheepish look she gingerly added [color=yellow]"I mean, that sounds like a...nifty element"[/color]. She glanced down at her untouched food, absently reaching up to push her braid back behind her ear before looking back up at Gus and then Brunhilde [color=yellow]"Oh! I'm Saqui, Saqui Shikoba...a few people prefer to call me Feather though. I've just moved here from South Dakota"[/color] Saqui watched for their reactions, curious as to whether either of them would attempt to pronounce her name and half expecting Brunhilde to ask how it was spelt. Allowing another breather before hand, Saqui asked[color=yellow]"How long have you both been practising?"[/color]. It was only after she'd asked that she questioned whether the small girl opposite her would have even kept track of something like that. Licking at her lower lip, she shuffled in her chair and glanced up at Brunhilde [color=yellow]"With your elements that is. Though...Gus, if you're technically the junior nurse are you studying medicine as well?"[/color] She queried turning to Gus, her curiosity knew no bounds... and she didn't seem to know how to stagger her questions.
