---

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hi, Hinote, will you show this new transfer student around? Before Hinote could say anything he had a folder shoved into his hands and he was left alone and wait, wah, huh!?

Hinote was fine with this-- he'd already changed out of his school uniform though- and was in a simple button down black shirt, and blue jeans with some sort of fancy name brand sneakers.

He stood with the folder near the front of the school as he pulled that folder up and looked at the tag. 'Odila Fairune'. "Odila... huh." he said softly as he put the folder back against his side as he held it in the cusp of his hand.

He looked at his watch once. He had nowhere to go, but he couldn't let it too late. It was his turn to cook. Lord knows Runealy or Valeria might burn the house down otherwise. Do they even know how to use the oven yet!?

Odila Fairune has posed:
    Odila had only started today, and had already been presented to the class which had been painfully intimidating for the terribly shy and scarred girl. Fortunately, she'd managed to get through the first couple of hours without any trouble. Her first day had consisted mostly of fumbling to a few classes, and the all important trip to the principle's office which had allowed her to handle the majority of her paperwork, and thankfully, Solaren had managed the financial part.

    Now, with school over she was to be given her official tour of the school. Already tired from classes, she would really prefer to just go home and sleep, however it'd probably be helpful to know where to go.

    She arrives a few minutes late, looking rather breathless as she steps out of the front doors, her short straggly hair all mussed up, that ugly scar across her nose still looking bright and nearly fresh. Must have been in phys. ed. class. Joy.

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hinote Kagari looks at Odila and blinks. "Are.. you okay?" he asks as he leans forward a bit as he makes a mark across his own face. "It looks like you have a cut right here. Did you get that taken care of yet?" he asks.

"Better make the nurses office the first stop." he says with pursed lips as he smiles.

"My name's Hinote Kagari. I'm a member of the Drama Club. But. My friends just call me 'Hino'." he says as he motions.

"So transfer student, huh? Where from abouts?" he asks as he motions for Odilla to follow along. Down the hallway a few toward's said nurses office.

Odila Fairune has posed:
    Odila blinks, self-consciously reaching up to cover the ugly scar. Strange how it would still look so bright after such time has passed. "Y-yeah, I'm fine..This is actually an old scar..A few years old actually." biting her lip, she looks away, wishing he'd quit staring at it.

    "Kagari-san.." She bows formally, a bit stiffly, akwwardly even as is everything about this weird girl. Even her accent is not quite right and by her features, she is clearly not Japanese. "My name is Odila Fairune. And no, I'm from..Er..Europe. England.." Hopefully he wont ask what city or neighborhood too..

    She just nods and trails along after him. "I...Really dont need to see the nurse. Like I said, it's an old scar, it just looks new and has for a long time.."

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hinote Kagari blinks. "Oh, well. I'll still show you were the nurses office is, just in case." he says softly as he smiles. "Odila Fairune is a nice name, Fairune-san." then she says 'she's from Europe' but then she finishes it with 'England' which is a step up from the Waldian's original claim of just 'Europe'. Space Europe. Or something.

"Huh. My dad's there right now, filming in some period drama." he says softly as he shrugs. "He'll be home soon though." he says softly as he walks along and stops in front of the nurses office. "Nurses office. If there's no one in, there's volunteer students you can call on a list." he says softly as he smiles and walks along further down the hall and points. "Teacher's lounge. No students. Like us." he says as he continues. "Principal's office. Tsukasa-sensei's an easy person to talk to." he says.

"So. Did you think about joining any clubs?" he asks softly.

Odila Fairune has posed:
    Odila arches a brow. Drama sounds kinda interesting but..She could never act in front of a crowd. No way. "Oh, that must be kind of scary, acting in front of other people..But it sounds like it would be lots of fun. I really love period costumes.."

    She ponders aloud, as if considering the drama club herself. "But I dont really know..I dont like performing in front of other people. I really do like dancing though, but..I..I dont know if I'm good enough.."

    They pause outside the nurse's office and she nods. "Thank you, I will try to remember that, Kagari-san.." Right, with her increasingly frail body, she may end up having to go there, eventually. And Odila continues to follow after him, peering at all the offices, wondering if this is all really necessary. She really just needs to find Princess Runealy, so that she can quickly return to her beloved Solaren.

    "Um, is there a dance studio?"

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hinote Kagari ahs. "Yeah, stage fright. No worries. Even I get that. Heck. Even my dad gets it. Don't worry there's a trick." he says. "You hold your breath for a few seconds... exhale slowly. Helps ease that anxiety a little." he grins.

"Dance Studio? Yeah there's a Dance Club. Um..." he scratches his head. "I'm not sure where they meet in school." he says as he pauses a moment.

He stops in front of a bulletin board. "Club announcements." he says softly as he scans the board. Insect Club is going to the forest this weekend... Drama Club is having a rehersal for an upcoming musical... "Ah, here we go." he says as he pointing to a flyer for it- it has the pertient information along with a clip-art ballerina on it of some sort then also tap shoes in the bottom right and then some shilloute of people doing the tango. Someone isn't much of a graphic designer, but it gets the point across.

He crosses his arms. "Do you dance, or are you looking to learn?" he asks.

"Not much of a big dancer. I know like, some fancy things but that's because I go to a lot of stupid hoity toity functions a lot." he sighs. "Nothing too showy." he says.

Odila Fairune has posed:
    Odila blinks, "..Just..Hold your breath? Eh..I guess I could try that." somehow it seems so simple, but can something like that really help?

    She too, peers at the board, sifting through all the information, pausing on the ad about a dance club. Her eyes widen, focusing upon the picture of the ballerina. "Um...Yeah, I do dance. I love ballet, but..I've never performed in front of a big crowd."

    Actually, Solaren had taught her ballet after her picked her up off the streets. She seemed a natural, inspite of her intense shyness. Or was it the magic that made her so graceful? Whatever it was, it was one thing that could calm her down, make her happy, make her forget all her sorrows.

    "D-do you think there's an audition involved? I love to dance..But I dunno if I'm good enough.." she arches a brow. "Hoity Toity functions? how do you mean?"

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hinote Kagari nods with a grin. "It can help. Just remember it for later." he winks. He then taps his bottom lip. "You'll do fine. I'm going to tell you a secret." he grins as he leans in and puts a hand to the side of his mouth. "Nobody's ever died of embarassment."

"It's true!" he smirks as he leans back. He recrosses his arms across his chest. "Probably not really an audtion, probably just to see what you're capable of so they can help you better." he nods a bit.

"Oh. My dad's Kinzo Kagari, famous Theater and TV star." he laughs. "So he gets invited to a lot of high profile functions and high end chairities and sometimes I need to go along." he says. "Not really my element. Not right now." he says. "Maybe later in life." he smirks.

"I know when I went into drama club at Seishou, when I attended there, there was a small practice like that." he says.

Odila Fairune has posed:
    "Oh..." She blushes, staring back at the bulletin board, already feeling nervous at the meer thought of having to audition. Oh noo, how will she ever fulfill her (other) dream of becoming a prima ballerina? "Oh...Umm..Well, I guess I just have to do the best I can. Perhaps you're right, and that breathing trick will work.." Well, it's worth a try.

    He then speaks of his father, a famous actor, and her eyes widen in surprise. "Woah, really? That's amazing..It must be a lot of pressure, being in the spotlight like that all the time. So I guess you're probably pretty talented too, right?"

    She bites her lip, wondering what it must be like to be famous like that, to go to high profile functions all the time. With Solaren's intense training sessions, she was too busy practicing magic and learning to dance (also used in her combat) to go to functions; not to mention, she despised nobility and their lazy past times.

    Arching a brow at Hinote, she curiously wonders if he might be some sort of nobility as well..But what was it that Solaren had said? They dont have royalty and nobilities in this world? Even so, if he's a guardian, he might be a different kind of nobility. "So..Is your family..Rich and famous? To be invited to high profile functions like that must be pretty exciting.."

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hinote Kagari crosses his arms. "Hey, anxiety is a thing, yeah?" he asks. "You just gotta take it easy. People admire someone who can enjoy themselves on stage because they don't have the courage to themselves." he smirks a bit. "You'll do fine."

He head tilts some as he purses his lips and taps his chin. "Huh? Kind of." he says. "But I try not to worry about that too much." he says as he waves a hand off. He tsks. "They can be fun sometimes but usually you just end up talking to someone about thier expensive new yacht and you just wanna strangle the ego outta em." he chuckles a bit.

"Really, the fun part is dressing up. I like dressing up. As silly as that sounds." he shrugs.

Odila Fairune has posed:
    Odila just shrugs, chuckling nervously. "I...Guess so, I suppose we will see.." She peers intently at the notice, committing the important information to memory. "So, these parties you go to..Do you get to dance and enjoy nice dinners? It sounds really extravagant. Is your family rich then, too?" she sighs wistfully, "I think it would be lots of fun to dress up too. I always wanted to be a princess, but I guess princesses only exist in fairytales.."

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hinote Kagari head tilts. "Yeah, my family's rich." he says. "But like I said that doesn't really mean all that much to me." a pause. "Don't get me wrong. Money's nice and sometimes flexing the privlege is a little nice..." he says with a slight smirk.

"Ah, I like tuxedos, myself, but most of the time I just wear a fashionable three piece." he says. "Easier to get on and out of." and no one questions the three piece... will question a tuxedo if you're about an out in one sometimes.

"Fairy Tales are important, you know." he smiles, as Odila just brought up a favorite subject of his. "Real or not, everyone's a prince or a princess in thier own ways. It's just how you carry yourself." he grins.

Odila Fairune has posed:
    Of course, Odila hated the nobility back home, but perhaps a part of her wished that just once she could live such a spoiled and carefree life. "I..See. I don't think being rich is something someone can take for granted.." She frowns softly, as if the idea bothered her, somehow. "Living a life of poverty is not easy, sometimes fairytales are the only way of escaping reality. However..."

    She looks down at her clothes thoughtfully. A simple school uniform. And a very beautiful pendant around her neck that seems to contain some sort of precious red stone - a garnet, perhaps? It really its the most lavish of clothing she has ever worn, even if it is quite simple - minus the necklace of course!

    "Well, I suppose my fairytale ending may come sooner than I thought. My...Parents left behind an inheritance, so.." she shrugs, "However, I am curious, what is your favorite fairytale? Perhaps they are just stories, but sometimes they are nice to pretend they're real..Maybe that's why I enjoy such things as drama and ballet, because you get to pretend to be someone else. Someone...Beautiful.."

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hinote Kagari ahs! "Well, I mean, I think I could do without the wealth." he says. "I get poverty stinks, but really, I don't think my future is going to benefit from it too heavily." he says. "Eventually, I'll move to someplace it won't do me any good. I'll travel for a long long time. Exploring. Defending people...." on a horse. maybe as a knight. In Waldia. But he doesn't say that.

He frowns. "Well. Sometimes tradgey needs to happen before a story begins." he says sadly with a frown. "I'm sorry you had to deal with that." he says. "I'm available to talk if you feel like you need to talk about such things- but I can understand reluctance. If you feel ready. Just get in touch." he says as consolingly as he can muster.

He does nod a bit. "Yeah. That's why I like acting, but admitedly...." he smirks. "I tend to be cast as the villian rather than the hero." he says rolling his eyes. "People say I do the evil laugh good, which is why, but someday, I wanna be the good guy. The knight or the prince or something... on stage."

Which is kinda silly because he is kinda 'actually a knight' too.

Odila Fairune has posed:
    Odila's frown deepens. Did she say too much as it is? However, it was the story she was told to go by. But she is happy for a change in pace. "Oh, have you travelled far? I've never really left England until recently. But it would be nice to see the rest of the world.." perhaps she could have a future here, like she never could on Waldia. However, if things go as planned, perhaps she can have that happy life for herself, even back on Waldia.

    "I suppose.." she shrugs, and her frown fades a bit. "I appreciate the offer, but.." Odila shrugs again. She just met the guy and doesn't trust him yet. Besides she was warned not to divulge too much information about it. "It's fine. I'm over it." she arches a brow. "Do you..Prefer playing a hero to a villain? I mean, what really makes a person a hero or villain, anyways? In some of the stories I've read, it's not always so cut and dry.."

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hinote Kagari grins and raises his hands in a shrug. "The hero is the person doing the right and just thing all the time, a pinacle of shining bright goodliness." he says. "A villian is the opposite, the deep dark black heart who wants to hurt people." he says. "But."

He says.

"Those things aren't the same thing as a protagonist or antagonist, which are similar to that-- not cut and dry. Heroes aren't flawed. Protagonists are." he says. "That's the way I see it."

"I try to act like a hero but sometimes I just end up a protagonist." he smiles.

He looks at his watch a moment.

"Darn..." he mutters. "I promised my roommates I'd be handling the dinner tonight anddddd I don't wanna starve anyone." he says.

"Do you need me to help lead you back out? or going to see about that Dance club?" he asks.

Odila Fairune has posed:
    She arches a curious brow. "Heroes...And Protagonists. I wonder if the same can be said about Villains and Antagonists? Only I dont think any of it is cut and dry. I think a lot of it has to do with circumstance.." she just smirks when he expresses his attempts to be a hero. "But I think being a true hero is a difficult thing, for those in difficult circumstances.."

    For a moment she looks a bit serious as she ponders that, but glances back at him with a shy smile. "I think I will be fine getting around, thanks to your guided tour. I want to look for the dance club's office, so I know where to find it next time."

    Odila then bows politely, seeming to have relaxed a bit but still quite tense and shy. "Thanks again for the tour, you'd better hurry and not keep your room mates waiting in that case.."

Hinote Kagari has posed:
Hinote Kagari grins and gives a wave. "Just come to Drama Club to search for me if you need me again another day. Someone there can give you my number or something if it's an emergency." he says with a smile.

"Have a nice evening~" he sings.. and off he goes!
