[Quite frankly, the whole of this situation has Jae-Ha seething. This tree - this world - is nothing but a glorified cage. As pleasant as some of it may appear, there's no saving the fact that he's locked in, not to mention other people, as well. At the least, he seems to have caught on to that ray of sunshine, which he uses, but it's not as though it continues to erase all of the bitterness that comes with being here.

But nevertheless. —He seems more at ease, than not, when appearing.

. . . A certain White Dragon, though, just to the side of the screen, does not.]

This amber is very impressive, really. To think that conversing across distances can happen instantly was even remotely possible. . .

But ah- More importantly! My name is Jae-Ha, and I'd like to most humbly offer myself to assist anyone who would like a few lessons in flight, as I'm sure that coordination might be—

[He starts, only to be (rudely!) interrupted.] Jae-Ha! [It's clear the frantic, white haired dragon in the background is not at all happy with the situation, glaring at Jae-Ha from behind.] Your 'services' are hardly what is important right now. Get this off of me already!!

[That being Kija's gem is smack dab in the middle of his forehead, courtesy of some wonderful tree sap, therefore forcing the presence of his wings.]

Don't worry, it'll loosen up within a day. [or something]

That's too long! [He practically despairs.] I- I cannot stand to have these horrible things to be around for another second! AH-! [Nooooo] The Dragon Claw is sticky with sap now, too!

[Jae-Ha just lets out an exasperated sigh] They're a beautiful set of wings, Kija-kun. Now you can fly without any of my assistance, even. Take advantage of it. Your complaining will get you nowhere.

I REFUSE!! [Before Jae-Ha can do much of anything, then, a white scaled dragon claw reaches out and all but grabs his arm to get his full attention - and hopefully succeed in removing the stone, leading the feed to cut off short.]

Be there in a sec.

[And she pocketed her amber and DOVE down the hole in the middle of the tree, only activating her wings a few seconds into her free fall.]

[backstory]

[ When she dives and he notices someone falling, he immediately moves to try and catch them just in case...! But is relieved when her wings activate, and she is fine. ]

Y-You should be more careful! If the gem fell... [ it would have been the end. Although his own gem is still... sap glued to his forehead. ]

[magus_knight]

I don't gotta worry about that, ze.

[As she landed, she pulled her skirt back to flash Kija her thigh... and the garter on it that held her gem against her leg.]

See?

[backstory]

[ L;JDSFLKSJLS Covering his eyes and plastering himself up against the tree. Because that is the most respectful thing!? ]

It's all right...! It's all right, I believe you! [ ////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ]

[magus_knight]

[Marisa blinked at the reaction before laughing loudly. She let her skirt fall back into place and patted Kija on the shoulder.]

Gods, it's like you've never seen a girl before.

[backstory]

I... I am respectful and do not make it a habit to act inappropriately around them. To act otherwise would be shaming.

[magus_knight]

Gods, as long as you don't, like, grope me you can act any way you want, ze. I'm not big on formalities.

[backstory]

I- I would never! [ sldkfjlsds ] You have absolutely nothing to fear!

[magus_knight]

[Marisa adopted a shocked expression that turned into a hurt one, her bottom lip trembling a moment, voice soft.]

You mean... I'm not attractive enough to want to grope? That I'm not p-pretty...

[Internally, Marisa was giggling hysterically. Sometimes she was truly a horrible person.]

[backstory]

Wait- that is not... [ She's misunderstanding! ] That is not what I mean, you're a perfectly beautiful young women, I just-- [ lskdjfksd ] I- I would not take advantage of anything!

[magus_knight]

[Good, good, he said she was pretty. BUT THAT WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH.]

But if it wasn't taking advantage. Then you'd... you know. Right?

I mean, we're not, but you would... right?

[backstory]

I would...?

[ Questioning. He's the PUREST BOY. He doesn't even get where she's going with this yet.... ]

[magus_knight]

[Marisa took a couple steps forward until there was little space between them. She reached out to toy with a bit of his hair.]

You know... Like if I was your girlfriend.

[backstory]

[ Jae-Ha. Jae-Ha where are you. Jae-Ha help.]

I....

2/2

[backstory]

R-Respectfully, I am dedicated to my master, s-so in terms of something of this nature, I cannot allow myself to imagine anything else right now.

[magus_knight]

[It was terribly cute. Too bad Marisa was a little shit. She sniffled.]

So... so you don't find me attractive...

[backstory]

That is not-! It is not what I mean at all! [ Marisa why ]

What I mean to say is that you are attractive, but even with that being said such thoughts would be unable to lead anywhere!

[magus_knight]

[Marisa was quiet for a moment before she broke out into a grin, shoulders shaking, and patted Kija on the shoulder.]

I know~

[backstory]

[ JUST SLUMPING. Was she teasing him? Has she been teasing him this entire time? ]

Right, then...

[magus_knight]

So... What did I come down here for? Oh yeah! Fire. Got sticks?

[backstory]

[ He's so relieved to move on. ]

I gathered some pieces of bark, and a few broken sticks. [ More like twigs in reality, but when this small everything is large. ]
