Today's the first time in a long time that I've felt empty. Not even sad or tired, just empty. This quarantine is getting to me more than I thought.

Leo crossed his arms and nodded, satisfied with both their answers. There wasn't really anything wrong with them; in the first place, he had only asked out of curiosity. It wasn't as if he were planning on judging them for things he felt were wrong. There was a time and place for that - like at home while surrounded by his siblings. Though being honest, he identified with Clyde more than he did with Lilac. Like him, he was also curious, 'what would person bonded to him be like?' and for that matter, what would change once they were bonded? Evidently Lilac had a more stern outlook on the nature of that bond, but Leo was of the opinion that one could not avoid deepening that kind of connection, not with how dependent you would become on one another in that time, an opinion he was sure was held commonly.

Perhaps she was simply unused to human interaction, asides from a needed few. She certainly seemed like the type - by her own admission, she was practically confined to her room for the entirety of the last year - which is why they missed each other despite attending the same school, so it made a certain amount of sense that she viewed the bond the way she did. In any case, it was what she believed and he respected that - not everyone was capable of viewing the world through rose-tinted lenses, even if there was a certain amount of romanticism that really did exist. Plenty of those bonded as Mage and Familiar tended to get married or into a relationship, after all.

Of course, just because not everyone was capable of seeing it that way didn't mean that people would just accept that, such as the newcomer who suddenly stormed in and literally stared Lilac down in what was obviously controlled annoyance.

It was obvious from his words and the way he acted that he was one of those that greatly respected the bond between Mage and Familiar, holding it sacred even - or maybe he was simply offended by the unfeeling demeanor that Lilac regarded it with, he knew that some would take offense to that easily. Either way, he wasn't pleased with her, and made his displeasure known.

For her part, Lilac simply glared at the boy, practically disregarding Clyde's interjections and making it very clear that she was neither going to apologize nor amend her statement.

Leo had to give her credit - what she lacked in stature, she made up for in nerve. The newcomer wasn't exactly the most intimidating specimen, but he was a full head taller than Lilac was, not that it mattered; the smaller girl simply glared at him and demanded he introduce himself.

"While I don't mind the two of you arguing in front of us," he interjected loudly, but in the same austere, composed manner he had began with, "I would like to note that it is considered rude to simply butt-in on a conversation without so much as an 'excuse me'." He finished, looking sternly at the new boy.

Being offended was no excuse to breaching proper decorum, especially in front of a lady, after all.


@Klaykid-@Natsu-@Hammerman

Just waiting on you, @Klaykid. I can't post otherwise~

"The pleasure is mine, Clyde," responded Leo, choosing to address him in a less formal manner - this was school, not a business meeting, he didn't need to put on airs for his peers here.

The first thing Leo noticed was that Clyde had a strong grip - he wasn't surprised, give how obviously muscular the other boy was, but he still found himself approving of the other boy; in a way, he was like the direct opposite of Lilac, which is why he found it all the more strange when Clyde started to freak out after making eye-contact with Lilac once again. The poor boy - and again, he must reiterate how strange it was for him to think of Clyde as such, given the context - was looking at the blonde waif of a girl as though she were the incarnation of evil itself.

Speaking of which, he turned to the girl in question. She was much like he remembered her; small and doll-like, and as quiet as mouse. They didn't talk much, hardly enough to get a good impression of what the other was like, but the girl was behaved, if anything. If he recalled correctly, her parents practically turned the function where they had met as an exhibition for how adorable their little girl was. If it was one thing this girl was lacking, it wasn't doting parents.

"It's nice to see that you still remember me," he said, matching her polite tone easily, "and I'm surprised as you are. You'd think after all that time we spent here we'd have come across each other once."

It was at this moment that he made eye contact with a boy passing just by them. The moment only lasted a second before he moved away, and Leo was otherwise unperturbed by it.

"So, I'll assume that were all second years here?" said Leo, trying to steer the topic into something they could all discuss - mostly for the other boys benefit; really, it would be better if he just excused himself if he was going to act so obviously uncomfortable around Lilac, but as long as he wasn't . . . "That being the case, that'll mean the sacramentum do you two have any plans in place, for your future partners, I mean? As far as I'm concerned, I'd be satisfied with a Familiar that's willing to work with me."

And he really was. He didn't care overmuch for what their abilities were or whatever quirks they had, so long as it wasn't a detriment to their cooperation. While some might wish for a Familiar with a rare ability, or one that complimented their own, Leo was of the mind that those traits mattered little in the long run - even if they were compatible in power, as long as they clashed in will then there was very little that could be achieved. It was thinking like this that led him to believe that it didn't matter what kind of person their Familiar was, so long as they were willing to work with him. He was curious if others held his opinion.


@Klaykid @Hammerman @pkken
@Invader Len I've got a question. Reading through the [Points] section in the OOC, does that mean we can distribute the points into stats after every post, or only during certain times? And also, points aren't used just for stats, they also have an added use?
Poor girl is gonna snap her neck trying to look up at them.

RIP Liliac. You had a good run.

Wow, just used an online height comparison chart and Lilac is only as tall as their chests.


RIP indeed, Lilac. Goddamn.

@Hammerman
Your character is now stuck between a bear-person at 6'2'' and a lion-person at 6'5'', who both have 2-2-6 stats on their proficiency, intel, and athletics. There's a joke somewhere here, but I don't quite know what . . .

As the train ground into a halt, Leo snapped the book he was reading shut, and stowed it away in his bag. The young man had spent the entirety of his break in his family manor, which wasn't actually as lonely as it sounded; the manor was fairly large, and though his father and mother were oftentimes too busy to talk with him, his younger siblings were available and had much free time - as they reminded him constantly by way of their endless badgering. Not to mention that he finally got work on that cake recipe that he'd been itching to perfect since last year, with some help from the family housekeepers.

Hauling his luggage, he stepped out of the train, his mind wandering to the incoming ceremony: The sacramentum. It would be a lie to say he wasn't pensive about it, though he was probably less worried that most; though he was concerned about his incoming Familiar, he was fairly confident in his ability to get things done. Still, having someone he could cooperate with as a partner would certainly make things a lot easier for him.

With a small grunt of effort, he hauled his luggage after him. To the average onlooker, the amount of things he had packed seemed a tad excessive, and Leo would have to disagree; while most people would consider bringing a small library of books, a kitchens worth of baking utensils, and nearly 40 kilograms of gym equipment as unnecessary, he considered it par the course. He knew what he was doing. In any case, he cared very little for the opinions of strangers.

It was when he began walking that he spied a familiar face in the crowd. Lilac de Blanc, the daughter of a minor noble house, and something of a passing acquaintance. Quite a feat that he spotted her amidst the crowd - the girl was short enough that every now and then she'd disappear under a crowd of people, much like a penguin being washed away helplessly by a strong wave. It appeared she was having trouble with her luggage - no surprise there; the de Blanc scion wasn't exactly someone he'd associate with the words 'physical fitness', a fact which did worry him. There were limits to how frail you could allow your body to be. He would admonish her neglect of her physical well-being later.

Right now, Leo figured he may as well offer his assistance.

. . . well, at least he planned to offer his assistance, when he was beaten to the punch by a bear. He frowned, wait, no that was rude. It was just a person that looked like a bear.

The bear person didn't seem to be aware as he bumped into Lilac, before his face suddenly contorted in an odd mix of fright and horror. How strange, was he afraid of Lilac?

He looked at the shorter girl closely. There was very little to be afraid of. In fact, Leo doubted she could pull off frightening even if she tried - she looked like a very small, very vulnerable blonde puppy, in his opinion. Well, maybe this other boy knew her better than he did. It wasn't an impossible that she had acquaintances that were aware of the girls darker side, on the unlikely chance that she possessed one.

Still, he may as well go anyway - the poor guy looked like he was going to have a heart-attack just standing there in front of her.

He frowned. This was a first - having to save the big scary muscly man from the tiny little girl.

"Hello Lilac, and good morning. I'm Leo, we've met before at one of your fathers functions?" he said sounding formal, before nodding to the other boy, hopefully putting him at ease with his presence. Though in all honesty, his presence wasn't the best thing to put people at ease; his high-class lineage and - admittedly - stiff bearing, not to mention a rather intimidating face that he just couldn't seem to pull out of a perpetual frown, weren't exactly a calming combination.

He turned to Clyde, "And morning to you as well. Leo de Coeur, and you are . . . ?" he said, extending his hand out in greetings.
