“I s-suppose a m-meister could use his own w-weapon y-yes” she agreed though she had not been used in many combat scenarios and thus did not know the full extent of how she could be used Then she thought of her adoptive parents and how she had come to discover her power as a weapon. “I-Ive been used b-by a m-meister with a-another weapon before so y-yes I don’t think t-there would be a problem” Idly she turned the page of her book savoring the words and her ability to understand them People too often took for granted the power of literacy. “t-that’s a good talent…n-not all meister’s n-need soul p-perception…i-if it a bad kishin-egg then i-it’s a bad kishin egg y-you d-don’t need soul perception to k-know that. Y-yours w-would be useful…if t-they c-can’t move…t-they could be c-covered o-or wrapped up a-and r-restrained…” she assured. A stunned or paralyzed opponent would be easy to hit with a strong attack after all. |

"Yeah... But you could say it was expected of all meisters. Weapons don't usually even think twice about the fact that a meister doesn't have soul percept." Rikey smiled a bit as he continued reading his book, but then the whole thing was interrupted by an a clicking noise. Click Click click click "Ahem" Rikey turned his head around to face the man who made the noise. He was surprised to see that it was the man nicknamed as "The King of the Library." He was slightly upset with the duo as his foot kept magically tapping on the carpet. His face was stern as he spoke up in a hushed whisper. "Your talking is too rambunctious. I will offer you a choice. You will either quiet down and continue your reading, or I will ask you to leave." His hand pointed towards the exit as he looked down at the duo. His voice demanded authority and seemed ready to take out anyone who dare go against him and the order of the library. It seemed he saw the duo as being too loud and it was probably correct since rikey couldn't tell if he was getting louder or not. Rikey bowed towards the man as he looked over to Sahd once more. "Well then, what would you like to do? Would you like to check these books out and continue the conversation elsewhere, or would you like to read silently." Rikey offered a quick smile as he awaited her response. |

Sahd was startled by the librarian man. She seemed almost afraid as he spoke with authority. Her small hands shaking as her whole body stiffened. The ‘king of the library’ wasn’t screaming at her but she did not lik doing wrong, she was terrified of being punished. The sudden movement of his hand to point pushed Sahd to react and she flinched responding as if she had thought she was about to be struck. When she felt no force, and no hand of punishment she glanced up, eyes clearly scared and intimidated. “I-I’ll g-go…” She said in her quiet voice “S-sorry…S-sorry…” She pleaded and grabbed her book, clinging to it as she headed for the check-out counter and showed her student card as her book was scanned. She waited for Rikey just outside the library. She unconsciously was gripping her book so tightly that her knuckles had gone white and seemed not to have noticed the left sleeve of her yukata had gathered at her elbow. In full view were several scars, layered, some were quite old while others quite recent though older than a year , some were deep and brutal and some were faint yet precise. This was only one section of one arm and it was horrid to look at and probably quite painful to deal with. Though no other skin was visible it was likely it was not just her one arm that carried the reminders of her previous life. |

Someone was definitely afraid of punishment Rikey noted as he watched Sahd make her way to check the book out. Rikey Rikey himself had no need in attempting to check the book out. He only worked on his study time in the library and he had no need to bring them home as it would impede his work on other training and possible social times, but it didn't bother him in the slightest when it did bother the person he was just speaking to. Placing the books where had first picked them up from, Rikey continued his way out of the library while bowing with respect to the King. The king seemed to acknowledge it as he made his way back to wherever he came from with the same clicking sound. As he made his way out, he looked at Sahd who waiting for him. She was stand holding her excalibur book tightly to her chest and in doing so, one of her sleeves had crawled its way up to the elbow and in full view were an assortment of scars. All of these scars were much more than Rikey's main scar. He had quite a few all over the place from doing missions, but they were mostly healed. His main one was when he was young and it ran down from his right shoulder to a bit before his hand and he never really showed it as he always wore a jacket. The fidgeting from before made perfect sense. She was self conscious of the scars she had. Rikey walked up beside her as he spoke trying to not acknowledge the scars in any way. "Well then I apologize deeply for getting you in trouble at the library. Perhaps I could make it up to you with some ice cream?" That hurt quite a bit for Rikey to say. He did have a bit of spending money because of all the recent mission he had done, but he still wasn't rich and spending like this would definitely make a dent in his budget. |

“I-it was m-my fault t-too…” Sahd replied and quickly sought to cover her exposed arm from view. “ I…i-if we g-go t-to my place w-we can get i-ice cream …for free” She suggested feeling bad about anyone spending money on her. She did not like to feel like she was taking from someone even when it was a gift or a friendly offer. “M-my guardians w-won’t be h-home they’re o-on a mission b-but Mr. Stelly s-should b-be home…” she commented and began to walk at a slow pace. She had used guardian instead of parents which meant those that now looked after her were likely not blood related. Despite her timid voice she did not seem scared of going home. If Rikey accompanied her home, he’d find she lived in a modestly large house, it wasn’t a mansion but had three floors and a finished basement. There was a decent sized backyard and a garage big enough for 3 vehicles and a tool shop work area.

"All right, let's go to your place then." Rikey normally would refuse going to another person's house if it meant he would have to mooch off from them, but with Sahd who seemed nervous and frail, it would be a bad decision to force her to do anything or to try and decline any of her good will. Rikey walked alongside her as he felt bad knowing he would be taking someone else's food from them. After a while, they had come upon quite a large house. It was almost as large as his old home. Back when he used to live with his parents. Seeing the house had brought back a few memories of his past. Back when his father had handed him the claw telling him that with the bloodline he had, he would become one of the greatest meister there ever was. They way his parents always coddled him and took care of him. He was their next perfect child until he had shown he wasn't. Although they didn't disown him, Rikey could still remember the feelings he had whenever he woke up to meet his parents. Their uncaring eyes as if though their dream child was no longer there and all that was there was a dog that needed to be fed. This remembering brought a few tears to Rikey;s eyers as he wiped them away. I'm not weak, I will show them. Returning to normal, Rikey hadn't realized that he had stopped in his steps and that Sahd had walked a bit ahead. He didn't know if she had seen what happened, but he still tried to play it off with his friendly mode. "Whoooaaaa! This is one big house. I was shocked when I saw it. It's like city compared to where I live." Rikey said as he smiled. Rikey wasn't joking when he said that either. In trying to scrimp in his new lifestyle, Rikey lived in a very sad apartment. It was only two rooms. One bathroom and one room big enough to house a stove and a bed with a computer on the floor next to the bed. "Thank you for inviting me." Rikey said as he continued walking with Sahd once more. |

Sahd opened the door and walked inside where she slipped off her footwear and lined it up nicely so they would be easy to find later. The main floor was inviting and warm with a few coats tossed over a coat rack and shoes of various sizes lined up along the entrance wall or placed away on a shoe rack. To the left side was a set of stairs leading to the second floor, and the right wall had two doorways with no doors that led into one large room with a dining table at one end and a living room at the other. At the end of the hall was the kitchen and the back door leading out to the back porch. Sahd glanced into the living room . A middle aged man with a few sprinklings of gray in his short raven colored hair looked up from his book. “Ah, your home early little one, place your book on the table and we’ll get you a snack” he was a kind man that much was clear as his voice was warm and patient. When he stood he saw Rikey “You’ve brought a friend Sahdie girl? Welcome young sir, pardon my surprise but it is not often that Sahd brings someone human home, animals that need love and caring most assuredly but as you’ve no doubt seen she is a tad shy about others” He was a tall man, but slender and he wore a pair of black slacks and a simple red turtleneck sweater. “Can…we have s-some icecream Mr.Shelly ?” she asked seeming more calm around someone familiar to her. “Of course you can, did you want help reaching to bowls, or did you and your friend want cones?” He turned a sky blue gaze to Rikey, looking at him through oval shaped glasses. “I am Matthew Shelly caretaker and tutor to Sahd as well as a family friend. May I ask your name lad? And what type of icecream you’d like as we’ve several flavors” |

Rikey followed closely behind Sahd as they entered the door. When she slipped off her shoes at the entrance. Rikey knelt down to to take off his own. If this was the custom of the house, it must be followed. Standing back up, Rikey gave a look over what he could see. It seemed to be very nice and was a very welcoming house. The dining room was quite big having two doorways dedicated to it, and they even seemed to have quite a nice back porch in this city. They seemed to people who lived in luxury but it didn't really bother Rikey, he lived the life once and he enjoys his odd life right now as well. Walk with Sahd into the living room, Rikey took notice of the matured man that was reading a book. He seemed to have an air of nobility and was one who should be respected. When he spoke, it assured Rikey that this man was noble in some way althought he also spoke as if he had a close relation with Sahd being able to address her in a rather informal manner than using her last name with Ms. Rikey looked at the duo with interest as he saw that Sahd was a bit more open with the people close to her although her stutter was definitely still there. He snapped back to attention once the man had introduced himself as Shelly and asked for his name as well as flavor of ice cream. Going quickly into his noble mode, Rikey placed an arm in front of his gut as he bowed down before the man. "Greetings Mr. Shelly, My name is Rikey Baltinez and I am a meister from Shibusen." Looking up at the man, his head whirled at the thought. Several Flavors He didn't know what flavor to ask for at all and he looked at the man as the look of uncertainty spread across his face. "Ummm.." He was a bit like his hero child mode now. His voice was a little more happy and childish as he spoke out his odd request as soon as it came in his mind. "Vanilla peanut butter ice cream with coffee cookie dough and raisin rum brownie fudge." After he spoke it, he gasped. He didn't mean to let his thought come out and he was a bit embarrassed by his odd request. |

Shelly smiled wider, noting the boy’s knowledge of civilities. “Please feel free to make yourself comfortable and I’ll see how close to that order I can come!” she headed into the kitchen then down a set of stairs into the basement where the large freezer was stored. Sahd gave a small smiled and sat down on a comfy blue couch. “h-he u-used to w-work in a private academy… s-so h-he’s m-more formal t-than my guardians, t-this is a f-family home of m-my one guardians” She added and smoothed down her yukata. |

Rikey smiled as he took a seat on the couch but still kept his distance from Sahd. Instead he looked around with a soft smile on his face. "Well he seems to be a good person. You guys must be really close." Rikey looked around as he took note of what Sahd said. The word she used to describe this house was what stuck out the most. Guardian's house. Rikey wanted to ask what she meant by that but he knew how awkward it would make her feel and instead he looked down at his feet. Maybe something Shibusen related would work. "Say, you're a weapon and I'm a meister.. Would you perhaps consider working with me? On a trial basis at least." Rikey spoke as he looked at the floor. Most weapons turn him down for not having the supposedly all important soul percept but he might as well try with the weapon before him. Although the setting where he asked was a bit odd. But it was either that or asking about her real parents. |
