Enzo laughed, he knew Arthur had a cheesy side, and he had found it. "Right, Best friends." He confirmed, and pulled him up to his feet. "My name's Enzo. Enzo Ferrari. Or, if you're from around here, it would be Ferrari, Enzo." Enzo's mind trailed off at that point, wondering how Japanese people addressed each other.
As Sasha showered, Eos set up her vanity while listening to the calming pitter patter of falling water. When she heard Sasha call out for her she called back, "Come on, sit your butt down in my chair!" Giggling she waved her over - Eos already holding a blow dryer and hair brush in each hand.
"But if I'm going to be your stylist, you've got to dish out all your feelings - like in a real salon!" Giggling she stuck out her tongue, teasing the poor girl.
Sasha nodded, walking over in her towel, mostly dry now. She sat, looking at herself in the mirror. Sasha had ditched the eyepatch back in The Gaze, and though the designs on her skin had faded, the design in the pupil had not.
Eos's statement made her eyes go wide. Feelings?! What feelings?! Sasha's cheeks went a little pink again, but soon calmed down. She cleared her throat, "Uh...maybe...."
"I am Artur, as you must have heard by now .. I'm the new student here!" Artur allowed himself to be pulled forth and wipes snow of the back of his pants. "Just Enzo." He laughs when he realizes he's said 'zohh' and not 'zo'. "I am not very familiar with this country's customs.."
Enzo formed a sloopy smile. "All I know is that there are lot of hot springs here." Instantly, he remembered the night of the hot spring invasion. "Don't go to the hot springs." He said with a serious face, and voice.
"You need to be honest with yourself, and sometimes it's easier to figure things out when you are telling them to someone else." A little bit of girlish wisdom hummed out from between her lips as she leaned down to Sasha and began applying a light dose of makeup. It wasn't much, considering the girl really didn't need any at all! It was mostly just to enhance the good features she already had.
"And you aren't allowed to look in the mirror until I'm done~."
“Let’s not talk about Voltaire,” JD stated as he entered, and he pressed on Silver’s hand to close her door. “Let’s talk about that kiss you gave me earlier. So what were your implications?” He stated as he leaned into her. “I’m not one to overstep boundaries- alright I do love overstepping boundaries- but not when it comes to intimate physical feelings.” JD attempted to state cautiously, and found himself faltering a bit.
“You are a strong girl Silver both physical and emotionally, and you haven’t given me much to work with in the latter- plenty in the former though. So- ah- this isn’t my most colloquial statement, but I-“ It was then he stopped talking for one hair of a moment and leaned into her- placing a kiss on her lips. “But I think we have time to fill that gap.”
She felt confused again. Honest with herself? But Sasha was being very honest with herself at the moment. What could Eos mean...?
She sighed again, closing her eyes, letting the feeling of the makeup tickle her face, " Fine, fine. "
Ling had morning patrol and wandered off into the courtyard as he was examining the school ground. "Order and peace. Two favourite thing during a night patrol. Nothing says trouble free when there are nothing to bother me." He of course overlooked a couple of disciplinary officers doing their corrupted jobs. Ling of course had to at least great many of them because he does lead the office. Not off in the distance, he easily spotted Enzo talking with another student. The first thing he noticed was that Enzo was sporting the uniform Aleister gave him. "If he decided to wear that, it would be best to pick him up for the first lesson."
Ling got closer to the pair and gave a soft wave. "Hello Enzo-buddy. Ready to start your first day with your mentorship." He looked over to Artur and just simply smiled to the new kid. "Hello there. I haven't seen your face around here. Let me guess, a new student at Sorcerers?"
She wouldn't pry anymore. The seed had been planted, and in retrospect it was best to keep quiet until Sasha decided to open up. Maybe. For some reason doing things like this, especially in the late hours, always made girls open up to each other. So maybe it was best if Eos said something to make her seem like the vulnerable one, "Do you think we're too young to fall in love?" A giggle escaped her as she realized just how sappy of a question that really was. "Oh, never mind... I'm just being silly." And with every amount of purpose, at that moment Eos flicked the blow dryer on and began brushing through Sasha's thick locks.
Enzo was surprised to hear his voice, he was still in the process of getting used to it all over again. He turned around and saw him. "Ling.." He listened to Ling suggest starting his lesson. Lessons?! At this hour?! He sighed, and nodded. It wasn't like he was going to get any sleep anyway. "Yeah, I'm ready."
Artur's smile falters and he cracks a nervous grin and ventures his question.
"What happened at the hot springs?"
Please tell me it wasn't a towel whipping fight..
"Oh uhm .. H-Hello." He shuffles behind Enzo upon the new arrival.
Silver's face turned perhaps the brightest shade of red it had ever been when JD kissed her. It was then she realized the situation she was in. She was with JD, alone, in her room, where he wasn't supposed to be, and he just kissed her. "I th-think we do have time to fill that gap." What was she supposed to do or say now? She had never been in a situation like this, and her heart was beating a bit faster than usual.
"How do you suggest we do that?..."
"Do you think we're too young to fall in love?"
At this, Sasha's brows furrowed.
"Fall in...love?"
The words slipped out of her mouth. Love...what was that again? Sasha hadn't really had the thought of love occur to her for a very long time, ever since Josef had destroyed everything that she'd held close to her.
"Don't be shy, don't be shy. Unlike most people here in Sorcerers, I don't intend to bite newbies." Ling looked at Enzo. "Master Aleister is a diligent teacher. Time is something he can not afford. If there is any open schedule no matter how late or early it is, he'll use it wisely." Ling turned back to Artur. "Now regarding you. I can understand how you feel. Being at a new big place and all. Having to say good bye to your parents, living by yourself, and trying to make friends while having no luck." Ling gave a good nod. "But you know there is a place for you at our school. Where you can fit in just fine." Ling pulled out a business card and slipped it into Artur's hand. "How about joining the Disciplinary committee? We welcome all students who are willing to uphold the headmaster's peace and order. You get a lot of privileges as you move up in ranks. Just give me a call on that business card and I can let you in on the placement test."
It took some time to finish, but the ending product was beautiful. It made Eos wish she could grow her hair out this long - but alas, she had this hairstyle since she was little and never seemed to grow out of it. Although the colors have changed over the years, she always felt most like her mother when she bleached her hair blonde. Even though it wasn't her natural color, she still loved feeling close to her in that sense.
Eos couldn't resist and began playing with Sasha's hair, humming a peppy tune as she did. There was lots of tugging, the flash of a few ribbons along Sasha's light of sight but it was unclear what exactly she was up to. "Alright, and now for the finishing touch!"
Pulling Sasha up from her seat, Eos took grasp of her towel and pulled it off her - sending the girl spinning a bit. It obviously didn't phase her to be in the presence of a member of the same sex in the nude, this proven by the fact she continued to whistle about the room. Although she wouldn't stay that way long, "Now close your eyes!" In any other circumstance - this would be a very dangerous situation.
Eos began to dig through her wardrobe, seeking out the perfect dress for Sasha. "Something girly, but not childish. Something feminine and sexy~!"
Artur smiles at the kindness Ling shows him but twitches at the mention of parents and falls entirely when he is handed a card for the Disciplinary committee.
"I .. I am very sorry sir but I am a medic not an officer of the peace!!" He waves his hands in front of his face."Please take your card back!!"
Enzo nodded. He figured Aleister was an effective Headmaster, but not to this extent. Though, he was willing to go along with whatever lesson he had to. He chuckled at Arthur's nervousness, and turned around to face him. "Well, since you're new and all, I doubt you have classes at 11PM. So, you should go find your dorm." He suggested, figuring he would have to follow Ling alone.
JD glanced up to the ceiling out of faux amusement. “I’m not sure how we do that beyond just spending time together and learning things about each other.” It was then JD brought his hands to Silver’s hips and held them there in a pensive moment. “I find that you can’t learn everything about someone in words, or at least my experience has been bleak. What about if I kiss you more-?” A hand slid up her right side and slid through those ebon locks before his lips met with hers again and he offered her a deeper and more passionate kiss. “So anything that might trouble you, question you, or otherwise bring you problems- I want to fix it. I want to learn from your nuances, from your body, from the mere motions you make when you are trying to fix your hair- it tells me more than words could know.” It was then JD glanced to the side. “I’m just being honest for once- do tell me if it is too much.”
"Dorm? .." His crestfallen face deepens.
"Well Artur, if you ever change your mind you can always find me. We're always willing to have people join us. So Enzo, let us depart for your lesson." Ling started walking knowing that Enzo would be following behind him.
Walking away with Ling, he gave Arthur the two-fingered wave, before turning back around and placing his hands in his pocket. This is good. He thought. I don't want him to see the other side of me.
Artur stands rooted to his spot with the saddest kicked puppy look ever.
WHAT THE HECK IS A DORM?!
Sasha let out a yelp of surprise as the towel was yanked off of her, instinctively covering herself with her arms. In any normal situation, the girl would have most likely pounded the shit out of Eos, but since this was a special situation, Sasha remained still, sighing while closing her eyes.
Ling had lead Enzo back to the headmaster's office. Outside of the door was Joanne in her usual clothing standing by the wall cross armed. She simply gave her casual glare to Enzo. Ling gave her a wave and opened the door. Ling gave Enzo a nudge into the room and closed it behind him.
Aleister was looking out the window just like how Boone would always have done when meeting with Enzo. He turned around, the moonlight being used as a natural light source in the dark. "So it seems that you have decided to take my mentoring Enzo. I have much to teach you."
Within moments, Eos was pulling the dress down over Sasha's head. It was a perfect fit, but could use some alterations, and accessories. Her eyes scanned her body - looking her over with a precise and detailed eye.
And finally, her hands moved her body so she was now facing the full length mirror across the room. "Open your eyes, love!"

Upon approaching the office, Enzo saw a face he hadn't seen in a long time. He was about to give his greetings to Joanne, but the deadly stare kept those words in his mouth. And before he knew it, he was in the room, with Aleister.
He nodded. "Yeah." He said, trying to act as calm as possible. It feels like i'm joining the dark side... Any moment now and I'll have a red light saber.
Silver had been frozen. She wasn't sure what to do, so she pretty much stood there as he kissed her. He was being so sweet, and she had to admit she enjoyed it. She never got the chance to experience something like this before, but she was glad she was experiencing it now.
"Oh, you're fine- I mean it's not too much at all." More like it's just perfect.
"I have something for you. It's a a gift from someone you faced during the Battle Royale." Aleister reached into his pockets and handed him a glass contact case with contacts in his eye colour. "A boy by the name of Spanner made these for you. He said that you can use these to control the level of output of you flames from each of your hand. He was using a lot of scientific terms that you may not fully understand. But to sum it up, this is so that you are aware how strong your flames can go and when you have reached a limit." Aleister placed it onto the table. "Let us go to the training room and measure how string you currently are." Aleister walked over to the desk and pressed a button revealing a hidden trap door with stairs leading down. Aleister walked on ahead.
Enzo took the glass case. Spanner? The one with the funny-looking robots?.. While in thought, He followed Aleister down the hidden passage-way. Why would he want to help me? Maybe he and Aleister has some kind of buisness thing going on. He could come up with a million different reasons, but none of them would count unless he heard it from Spanner or Aleister themselves.
