Throughout her whole entire life, the female had hated being born short and dainty. Now that her shapeshifting had locked her into the body of a child until she could recover energy she had spent being held captive? Well, thing’s had gotten infinitely worse, when she had been an actual child she had a strong bite and swift running speed to keep those around her from dressing her up, not that she minded at that age like she did now. Currently, she had no form of protection against being made into someone’s doll! No offense meant towards Sakura who was an actual doll and a valued guild mate. Anyway’s, the ace had barely worn anything for so long now that she was used to it, but due to her younger psychical age the wind had stopped forcing the issue and some annoying people had noticed this, in combination with her now cuter appearance they took it as an invite to dress her up! Jiyu hated wearing real clothing, thing’s like dresses, t-shirts, and jeans, they were so itchy and heavy now that she was adjusted to only wearing bra tops and daisy dukes, but no one was letting her dress like that now that she was physically younger, it would be a bad image for the guild or something. When it came to Aruzati? She was sure the weasel did such things purely to annoy her because in terms of Magic she was outmatched only by the guild master right now, but she was physically unable to fight him off, he was sure she would not use her powerful magic against him out of fear she would seriously harm him.
“You’re A Terrible Sadist Aru! Someone Help Me!” she had just gone to get him because she had something very important to future events that she absolutely needed his help with involving their fellow ace Kiru. When she knocked on his door? She had been quickly dragged into his room, not really sure what was happening until seconds later. The weasel had gotten his damned hands on some sort of ‘combat dress outfit’ and she was fully aware he intended to get her to wear the clothing. Clearly, the child tried to run away, but the goddess was unable to escape once he got his hands on her, she could not even hold a baby much less fend off a full grown man. “I Hate You! Hear Me?! I Hate You Bastard!” she kicked her thin legs, but even if she landed one of her feet it would not hurt him, she was helpless as she was zipped into a high collar long sleeve black shirt and had brown gloves pushed onto her hands. When he turned to get the dress? She tried to crawl away, sneak away, her brain not thinking clearly enough to vanish into the wind resulting in her getting grabbed again seconds later. “Are You Happy Now Jackass?!” her orange gaze glared at him as she sat there having been nicely fitted into the short sleeved coat like dress, buckles secured on her arms, one around her waist, a black frill at the bottom with six buttons going up to the notched collar, three per side. Honestly, it was rather cute on the ginger ace, but she clearly was not happy about it.
After a few seconds, she chose to stand up, glaring at him still. “Now that you’re done torturing me.” it was clear she was livid with the short haired male, but she would not attack him, she cared about her guild mates and was currently in control of her magic, he knew that. “I need your help.” she hated asking this of anyone, but she had to keep this amongst the higher ups in the guild, make sure it never became public knowledge and Izayuki was not available at the moment to aid in what she needed. Jiyu became increasingly uncomfortable tugging on her sleeves with a deep breath. “I need you to come with me and Kiru, it doesn’t matter where we go but you have to ask her, I can’t.” she was terrified of her own fellow Ace and had been for some time, ever since their last job together where she found out the other female was a demon slayer! Jiyu had in her head a bad history with them, recently she had endured events that lead her into believing her fear of that magic was unfounded, she would not try to overcome it for just anyone, but she was almost certain it was a foolish fear and it was affecting her ability to work with Kiru, badly. Kazehime could barely even look at the other mage, much less take jobs with her or fight by her side, she was too frightened of the girl. While Jiyu had no interest in fighting her fears when she did not need to, eventually being able to work with Kiru again was a necessity especially since she believed her fear had been started by a false belief. Still, she could not endure the thought of doing anything alone with a demon slayer, she needed someone else with her, and Aruzati was her best option right now, keep it inside the guild and away from public knowledge.
Jiyu realized her request may not make sense to the weasel so she looked to the side gulping, realizing she had to directly tell him why she needed his help. “Ever since we went on a job and I found out she used Demon Slaying magic I’ve been terrified of her, it can’t keep up like this, but I can’t even talk to her myself.” she had thought of saying a word or two in the direction of the dual haired woman since they came back to the guild from that job, but she had been unable to do so, paralyzed by the mere thought. So this was her option, ask the prankster for help getting to know the ice block without curling into a fetal position.
