omo Eh? No problem, MUG! Sorry!
Scarves for the win! >8D

And Avian post is up~ Feel free to add any other details you want, Kimchi!


This kid was bringing out the worst in him.

Hakuren smirked and said that splitting up wasn’t a great idea and Avian had a feeling that the human mentally lambasted him after that comment. Ah whatever, the brat talked big but hasn’t contributed to the group so far. It would be petty of a royal dragoon to pay such people the slightest bit of attention. At least, that was what he wanted to think. Victoria, despite her aggressive tendencies towards sharp tongues which rivaled her own, was better with handling these sorts of people. He didn’t know why; it’s just that she was easy to offend and yet impossible to insult. Avian could feel his mood growing lighter at the mere thought of his wife and exhaled, returning himself to his current duties as bodyguard and guide to the Lost Souls. He watched as the humans played with their respective jars and then teamed up with their friends to discuss where to go. Hmm, it was almost like those field trips from the Academy of Sol.

Some of the humans went upstairs while the others ventured branched out over the first floor. Avian was slightly nervous when he saw the red-haired girl staring down at the base of the wall, and when Harper fiddled with whatever it was Ace was looking at, the soldier decided to step forward. He watched as the door was opened and narrowed his eyes when fumes of dust swept up at their faces.

“Are you really going down there?” He asked Harper, concern apparent on his face, but Avian didn’t bother to jab the question at Ace. From what he has seen, the girl was pretty much a younger version of Victoria and it would probably take hell and high water to dissuade her. “Hmm. Take care then. I don’t want to impede your little adventure, so here,” The dragoon handed over a thin brass whistle to Harper and shrugged. “It’s nothing special, but apparently some of the lurkers here in the Dark Side get stunned by high-pitched sounds. Not that I’m expecting you to bump into any of them
 Good luck,” Avian grinned and watched as the two descended into the basement. They should be able to handle whatever comes their way. Maybe. Wow, he was being irresponsible now, wasn’t he? Just to make sure the humans had an escape route should they ever want to hightail it out of there, Avian jammed a piece of wood under the door so that it stayed ajar.

Avian felt something approach and he immediately spun around to face it, but the “it” was a human, a white-haired girl whose name was a rock. Ah, Jasper. She proclaimed her intent to follow him and the dragoon nodded.

“Let’s head upstairs then,” He said and the two of them climbed the stairs, some steps squeaking under a weight which the old wood may not have borne for centuries. Avian saw the slightest flicker of a glow jar over in the other corridor, so he took the opposite hallway and tried the doors.

The walls were a dark wood paneling with intricate curlicues at the beams and there were various paintings pinned up, along with large exotic cloisonné plates which stood proudly near the ends of the corridor. Unfortunately, some of the plates had been broken and jagged pieces were spilt over the floor. The floors were of a lighter shade than the walls and were made of designed boards, with the center of the entire hallway carpeted by a lush velvet strip. The place must have been a real beauty back in its day

Too bad that its splendor had to be lost in years of neglect.

Avian Rider tried one door after another until one finally yielded; he and Jasper strolled inside the room after he ascertained that it was safe to go inside. It was a massive room with a glorious-looking canopy bed at the very center, with an end table and a boudoir nearby. There was even a coffee table and chairs near the wall; on closer inspection, the ‘wall’ was actually a curtained stained dark grey by dust and grime. The dragoon tried to slide the curtains open but to no avail; it seemed as if they were stuck due to rusty hoops or something like that.

“Seems like there’s an adjacent room, miss Jasper. Probably a study?” Avian fanned the air with his hand when he noticed that there was a door on the leftmost side of the room. It was barely visible thanks to the design which greatly resembled the wallpaper, but the jutting doorknob paved the way for keen eyes to notice its presence.

On another note, Avian approached the bed and got down on all fours before peering under, where only darkness and the musk of poorly circulated air met his inquisitive gaze. “I’ve always wanted to look under a bed. Back in Aven children slept in cots near their dragons, and Victoria doesn’t let me look under our bed because it’s ‘silly’ and ‘something a grown man like you, honey, shouldn’t do’,” Avian cheerfully disclosed these pieces of information to Jasper, unknowing of whether she was paying attention or not.
Yes she did. 8D You evil, evil people.
@Michi: Avian and Jasper are going to tackle the bedrooms. I'm going to write my post now, sorry for the wait, Kimchi!

Song and Brandy will go to the kitchen
D8 Go away Kyubey, there'll be no souls for you tonight!

(Good night guys!
... Still laughing at Lucien by the way)
Aight, we'll check the bedrooms then! Kukukuku.

But I gotta sleep now, bye bye!
I'd like to tackle the basement, but I have Jasper with Avian (I think?). We could check out the bedrooms? bad bad bad

Oi Kimchi, I'm going to post my Avvy after you okay? Where'd you wanna go? >8D Just mention it in your post and your personal hot man guard will follow~


Academy of the Arts: Sound Room

Gods above, that hurt!

"He broke my flute!" A high-pitched and wholly unpleasant voice broke through Lute’s torpor."This was hand made! Do you know how much a handmade instrument can cost?"

“Probably more than what it would take to get you to shut up,” Lute replied as he resurfaced from underneath a brass gong and a cello. Delilah “oooh”-ed and then launched into an embarrassing song that was comprised singly by the word “burn”. The girl seemed incensed and tried to pull him by the collar, but the virtuoso slapped her hand away by reflex. Undeterred, the student continued her litany.

Another student stopped her and Lucien walked inside. The virtuoso was already cleaning up the fallen instruments with one hand while his free one was draped over his forehead as he winced. “Thanks, Lucien, but you really don’t have to,” He muttered as the summoner bent down to retrieve a drum. Lute couldn’t help but glare back at the girl when she looked back. He’d like to see her get in the same mess and have somebody talk to her in such a nasty manner. That would show her! Asides from that flute though, the only things he managed to ‘break’ wasn’t really broken, more like dismantled. Lute could probably fix them back with some help.

The atmosphere suddenly felt wrong and Lute saw that the lady from earlier had arrived; she summoned them and Lucien scurried over, while Lute took longer to respond as he had tambourines stacked up in his arms. Trixie came in and tried to sway the lady too! “Thanks, hero,” The virtuoso mouthed to the girl before facing Rose, but her glare was truly a sight to behold and even Delilah fumbled for a way to appease her anger. Well, something asides from stunning everyone with a banshee scream, that is.

The way Rose looked at Lute would have inspired him to make a run for it like Lucien did, but he created this mess and should be the one taking the fall from it. This urged the virtuoso to take a deep breath and attempt to communicate with the beautiful, if not scary, lady. “I’m Lute Aiseirigh, ma’am. We’re guilders and
 We went here with another guilder whose sister belonged in this Academy. We were simply supposed to tour, but I have a thing with horses, so I got scared of your steed-“ And with good reason, Lute privately added, “- and I really caused a big mess. Sorry. If you don’t mind, I’ll go finish my clean up now
?” He finished and glanced over to where Lucien ran to. Oh well, he’d have to catch up by himself.
I'll be getting my post up as well, or does anyone else want to post first?

Edit: Posted! Hope Rose doesn't murder Lute.
