First Flame [ Action ]

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

[ Heading down the hall is a very confused and displeased looking teenage boy. He's dressed in normal street wear, has a cat hanging lazily on his head, and sword bag slung over his shoulder. Don't mind the fact that he seems to be talking to no one. ]

What the hell-I'm supposed to be going out to battle, not school!

[ Rin's got his letter of welcome out, and for the last few minutes he's been wandering around the grounds giving it the dead eye. Not even ten minutes before he'd found himself here he was on his way out to fight an incredibly strong demon with his classmates. He couldn't have taken a wrong turn... Did someone hit him upside the head when he wasn't looking and knock him in this dream world? That would be beyond ridiculous. He's had enough of space compression magic to fill a life time. ]

If I'm going to be stuck here [Dream world or not. ] The least they could have done was given me a map so I knew where this Fisherman place is...

... [ Damnit. ] Ok maybe I was.

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

It's okay.

[She steps closer and puts her arm around your shoulder.]

Whenever you feel like talking to yourself, you can talk to me!

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

[ Don't mind him tensing up when she slings her arm around his shoulder. He's a healthy male trying not to notice her figure too much. ]

I don't even know your name...

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

It's Nura! Nura Nal. And you're Rin, right? Oh don't worry about me knowing that. I'm a precog!

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

Nuranal?

[ She gets a look of shock anyways. ]

You're a what? A mind-reader??

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

Nuuuura Naaaal

[She giggles.]

Nope! I see the future.

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

Nuuuurnall?

[ Sob can he just call her Nala, this is so confusing for him. ]

So you knew I was coming here???

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

[She just smiles, shaking her head a little.]

Just call me Dreamy. It's sorta my nickname.

[Again, she shakes her head.]

Nah. Just you speaking your name. The tension between here and the Dreaming is too taught to traverse that clearly.

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

Okay. Dreamy them. [ Maybe he'd try for her other name again, this one just made him sound even sillier than before. ]

Oh, I get it, you're called dreamy cause you can walk in people's dreams?

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

No. Because of this.

[and then just like that, in the blink of an eye, her eyes close and she starts to drop to the floor.]

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

Woah-!

[ And he'll be moving to catch her. ]

Fainting doesn't count!

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

[she droops in his arms, limbs heavy and motionless for several seconds. Her sleeping face breaks with wide, alert eyes and an O made with her open mouth. She gets upright and straightens, arms going around Rin for support.]

Whoa!!

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

[ He flounders to hold her upright. He has no idea what was going on anymore, but he'd rather not get yelled at for dropping someone. ]

Uwah?!

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

Ha ha. Sorry about that. But at least I gave you a warning!

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

[ Dead pan... ]

Isn't feinting randomly a disorder?? Sleep Apnea or something??

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

[She just smiles.]

Narcolepsy.

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

Whatever.

Are you sure you didn't just do that on purpose.

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

[She frowns and looks stern.]

Why would I faint on purpose?

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

It just seemed like ya' did...

[ He's shrink back. ] I've never seen someone just, do that, before.

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

Obviously you've never met a Naltorian before. [She unwraps her arms, sets her hands on his shoulder, then reaches up with the free hand...and twicks his nose.]

Ha.

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

Well no cause I've never-[ He's interrupted rather effectively from Nura's flick. Rin squints his eyes and moves away from her,covering his nose protectively. ]

Ow! What was that for???

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

[Nura puts her hands on her hips, arms akimbo.]

You had a serious look on your face.

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

...

[ This woman was trolling him. And he was falling for every single trick. ]

What sort of face should I be making then?

[notthestars.livejournal.com]

A less serious face.

[callinblueskies.livejournal.com]

.... [ Fair enough. ]

How about this one?
