Sun flooded eagerly and without mercy into the small room occupied by a young and very pale woman. However? Unlike most, she cherished that warm sensation across her face, a feeling most dreaded as it woke them up early, was a feeling cherished without second thought by someone who lived two years in utter darkness! Thus the feeling of the new day’s sunshine playing it’s cames across her face, woke the wind user up gently, odd optics opening slowly, and a small smile forming on her pale pink lips. These early hours that no one else in her guild could see? Where really the only times within the Black Rose guild that the temperamental mage could be considered cute, and utterly adorable she was, curling into an uber soft blanket she’d secured to help stop her rabid nightmares from closing in and stealing her sane mentality, seeking out the sunlight and brightness but at the same time seeking to restfully lay in the last traces of her dreamless but restful slumber. Finally sitting up the wind mage would rub one eye with her healing left hand and push her hair up with the right one, which was healing as well. Jiyu glanced outside her window and saw that it was very early, actually it was such an ungodly hour of the morning that the wind user doubted anyone else was awake. Most of her guildmates to her knowledge? Tended to wake up shortly after the sun and spend time prepping for the day, than eating breakfast and such in the restaurant. During this time, she could freely check the job/announcement board, if she did so quietly, and people would think she was still tucked up in her room. This morning, Jiyu decided she was going to go check the board before getting dressed, before brushing her hair, check it first thing! If she did that? Than she might catch another good solo mission, or something she could tag onto like she did with Leila’s mission to catch Lilith; Aiding in the capture of a murderous criminal?! Had been very fun, and it had to get her some Magical Council attention or something, so she wanted something like that again, but she had a feeling her very protective friend would be less than pleased with her taking on those sorts of missions.
Marschal was all up in the wind mages head as she walked down the stairs silently, his image wouldn’t leave her vision even though he wasn’t there, and she sighed softly, trying to chase thoughts of him away. Even if she was thankful he had saved her life? She couldn’t let one person become too important to her, not so quickly, she was an independent and powerful woman. However she often felt he saw her as a scared and defenseless child, she felt too safe around him, too protected. While she craved the way she felt around him? Jiyu also feared getting swept up and changed by it, and that she did not want. So she ended up lashing out at Leigh, even if she loved what he was doing and wanted more, it was just how she was, not used to relying on someone, so much so she forgot how to rely on someone properly. Every single thought finally, blissfully faded from her head as she finally came up to the announcement/job board, walking closer with her bare feet almost silently scraping across the wooden floor. The first thing she did? Was skim for a good job, and she saw one or two that grabbed attention, but none of them jumped so much that she just had to race outa here before she looked over everything else. Eventually? She came to the Rising Star list and realized something look different, some of the names had been filled in, she’d been slightly aware of Iza’s status as one, and had always hopped to be one herself, sometimes, but…………
“MARSCHAL!” she shrieked out the cat boy’s name, spinning on her heel as she finally processed what she read. Even if he’d probably heard her shout from wherever he was in the guild this morning? Jiyu sought out his scent anyway’s, finding his signs coming from the restaurant, her feet pattering distinctly against the wood now as she ran towards his smell and the sound of him, his electrical signature, laughing as she broke through the halls. “MARSCHAL, MARSCHAL! MARSCHAL, GUYS! MARSCHAL!” Finally she busted into the room, throwing the door open so hard it likely splintered whatever wood it struck.
Normally? Jiyu was always as composed as someone with her normally messy hair, recovering from her injuries and who barely wore clothes, could be. However? Now Black Rose was greeted with the sight of the wind mage with a serious case of bedhead, worse than her unkempt hair on the day she joined, when marschal had needed obsessively and compulsively to brush it and attempt to tame her unruly mane! Alongside the bed head this was the first time anyone got to see what Jiyu wore to bed, which consisted of a simple pair of pale pink shorts, trimmed in white lace, her t-shirt top having an adorable little brown teddy bear printed on it, being pink everywhere besides for it’s white lace trim. Once more the female provided doubt to the fact that she was completely human, running along the floor until the booth’s got in her way, her solution to this was jumping onto the first one and leaping the span of several. Of course? The truth was that Jiyu was not human, but she didn’t actually know that, so it was just irony for now. Anyway’s? That didn’t matter, what did matter was she stopped halfway to the drunken mage and leaped onto the bar table, swinging her hand over to grab one of the fruitier and lighter beverages, but still it was alcohol, which was rare to see Jiyu grab, while she spent a good time around a drunken mage, no one had actually seen her drink before. “MARSCHAL! YOU GUYS WE HAVE A REASON TO CELEBRATE!” she danced across the bar, swaying her hips and not seeming to mind her girly pajama’d state in front of the guild, turning to look at Marschal again, only to see he had stood up from his booth, likely because she was acting like a maniac and grinning like she’d lost her mind. Likely? He wanted to put her back in her place, well this time she was going to put him in his place! Or rather inform him of his place. Placing down her drink bottle with a little hum, not having taken a single drink? The wind user flung her body at Marschal, aiming to knock them both down to the ground, so she could straddle him and put her hands on his shoulders. At the least thought? She’d wrap her legs around his waist and arms around his neck.
Until she spoke again, all anyone could really know was that for some reason she was more aggressive towards or more happy with Marschal than normal. “MARSCHAL GUESS WHAT! MARSCHAL!” she was someone with sensitive hearing as well, so someone would figure she’d not shout so loudly when she was so close to someone with a cat's ears. However? Her excitement could not be contained. “MARSCHAL GUESS WHAT WE BOTH ARE?” Jiyu seemed giddy, and she squealed again, making a sound that somewhat resembled a dog's bark, rearing up or back, it depended on what positioned she’d ended up with marschal in. However soon? She had her face right in front of his again. “MARSCHAL WE’RE BOTH RISING STAR’S!” and finally the reason for her joy was revealed, the wind mage threw her head back laughing in glee, as she aimed to embrace the drunken mage tightly
