[b]"I've been singing for years but it's always nice to hear the practice was worth it."[/b] Again, the easy smile was flashed by Rhiannon. She could see the effect of the song had settled in well which pleased her; Erza was much easier to talk to when she was less anxious. [b]"Good, good. I'm glad that my magic allows me to do things like this, it makes it much easier to talk to everyone."[/b]

She listened to the other girl, her brow furrowing as Erza displayed her power on the flower.

[b]"I don't see why anyone would be scared. We all have powers or are different in some way or another but I guess it's down to our control of it that matters. And no, I definitely don't think you're scary. Besides, I can fix anything like that. As long as it's a plant. Watch."[/b] She picked up the remnants of the flower and breathed on them gently before placing the pieces on the ground. Small roots began to sprout out from the reforming stem, digging themselves into the ground and righting the flower with petals blooming once again.

[b]"My people have power over nature, the singing thing is special to me apparently. Can you control that power? I once made an entire forest disappear, made all the tree stand up and walk right off a cliff. It took [i]tad[/i] and all his brothers and sisters to fix it overnight. I'm a bit better now but I can't control the singing, I can only choose what I want it to do but it has to do something. Sometimes I just want to sing... to sing, you know?"[/b] She was babbling, she knew, but she wanted to make at least one friend before school started properly and Erza was nice enough, just a little nervous and Rhiannon could understand that considering what may have happened in any one of the student's lives; the world just wasn't going to accept them properly.

[b]"Oh! Do you know anything about werewolves? I think I may need to make it up to one of them... he was a bit aggressive so I made him more helpful with a song. Sometimes people don't appreciate me meddling with their emotions but I just do it in self-defence sometimes...."[/b]
