(I'm thinking I might join your power rp Rose, I just need to make a solid character. Maybe I'll revamp Celeste, I really liked the idea of her character. Also nice song request XD
Minted I think replied to your last post awhile back. It should be in a huge text post with Selena talking to Eveline.)
"Vaguely." She said as she grabbed her phone from the kitchen counter and pulled up the song, listening to it briefly before sitting down at the piano bench. Her fingers tested a few keys out then began to play it. Her body and hair slowly swayed back and forth as she played while she lightly hummed the lyrics to herself.

(That'd be awesome Feather! Haha, and thanks XD)
Dalton smiled to himself. It was a bit of a simple song, but it was very pretty. Perfect to relax to. Once again, he found himself listening to both the music and the humming, soothed by both. Vaguely, he wondered when the other two would get there, but it was easy to push that thought aside in favor of Aika's playing.

(Would Firebird work as a species? I'm thinking maybe she lost one of her wings in an accident and was banished from her plane/ planet because of it?
Also do you think we'll ever see Dalton's older brother. Need to know for plot things :3 )
After she had finished playing the song he had requested, she transitioned into a different song. This one seemed rather simple when it started but slowly built on itself, had felt as though it carried a much more sorrowful message if there was one.
(Reference for the song, it's called Letting Go, you can find it on HDSoundi if you want to give it a listen.)

(Listening now! Yeah, Firebird would work! Hmm, I was definitely planning on him talking to him, I was on the fence about actually showing up though. What do you think?)
Dalton sighed quietly. This all was definitely more than he deserved, and he hoped she knew that, even if she would never admit it to him. She even let Naomi into her house for me. I certainly owe her. He closed his eyes, trying to think what he could possibly do. After all, he didn't have James' cooking abilities, not to mention naturally giving nature. I rely on him too much. Actually, all of them.

(I think having him show up would be interesting, especially if he showed up at headquarters. I'm guessing Naomi and Aika wouldn't know who he was at first glance but would notice he would look similar to Dalton.)
As she played the last note, she glanced towards the clock.Three thirty. There's still a reasonable amount of time to spare. Considering the team was meeting at her place now, she decide she should probably tidy up the place a bit. She picked the books up from the coffee table and rearranged them onto the bookshelf that was next to the door that led into her bedroom.

(Alright! Should I fill out a form for him?)
Dalton opened his eyes when he heard her move around. He knew that she wouldn't want him to help; thankfully, it didn't look like she had much to clean. Her apartment was neat, much neater than his anyway. Even so, he began to eat a little faster, so she could put away the dishes and have the whole table clear.

(If you'd like to! It probably would be good to have for reference.
Aw man I feel you Misty. My back usually hurts if I work for three or four days in a row.)
Aika took a step back as she looked over the bookshelf, her left hand placed on her hip as she tapped her right pointer finger on her chin. Geez, I really need to rearrange this. Everything is out of order again. since she had time, she decided to focus on rearranging the shelf.

(Geez Misty, I'm sorry to hear that DX)
The silence was a comfortable one, but still, Dalton felt the need to fill it. "Why all the books on magic? Researching something?" he asked, feeling a bit more like himself again with some food in his system. His headache wasn't entirely gone, but it was certainly an improvement, and that was saying a lot compared to how he was feeling this morning.

(Yes ! The form is at the bottom of all the descriptions. ^^ but bascialy. Char name > Show > Description > SN ) (Something like that.) Rowlin gazed at all the books happily. He wasn't exactly sure what he wanted, but he noticed that some of the history subject books were first editions, or special editions. That could only mean one thing , not many people buy them... holy cow... these are going in my library! Just like a child in a candy store he began to pick several books, one by one. Books talking about Greek history, to midevil times, all the way to the US. History and civil war. "Too be honest I'm not looking for anything in particular. Yet these books talking about the western frontier. Those are classics!" ((Great! I'll go fill it out as soon as possible XD been absorbed in a few rp's so I might be slow D: sorryyyy in advance if i have delayed replies Misty : oh gosh D: that sounds hard, but you're still surviving and that's really impressive!  )) The visitor brought out so many books it made Evangeline want to help him carry some of the stuff he picked out. To be honest she was surprised he picked out so much in the first place because the all the books he picked out were pretty rare, and if not, kind of expensive. Any normal people that comes in would just pick out one or two, but this guy? This guy was going over the moon if you know what I mean. In a way it made Evangeline even more happy because as of this moment she finally met someone who would be as crazy as she was about books, but in the mean time it's concerning her. Did you read all the price tags? she mused to herself. "Do you need a bag of some sorts? You're picking out a lot of the books." She offered, extending her hands, also wanting to help him carry some of he wanted. |

Aika nearly jumped at the sudden break in silence, though she quickly calmed herself. "Well, uh, there use to be a position in the VDA called Seeker. It's no longer a position, but they were tasked with seeking knowledge of Magic Born's and finding ways to use their magic in combat. I found out about it during a talk with one of the older secretaries. He said they stopped training agents for this line of duty because, most of the time, they tried to use their newfound knowledge to climb the ladder in hopes of becoming the next President. I thought if I started studying different types of magic I could at least attempt to bring back this position, but in a new light." She lightly shrugged as she finished organizing her shelf. "It's just research though. I haven't put anything into practice."

"I didn't know that." Dalton blinked. It seemed like something that would have come up. "Sounds like something that would definitely be useful. Of course you'd still be on Team Phoenix if that happened," he added, laughing softly. It was supposed to be a stern sarcastic comment, but he ended up sounding too fond that she was on his team. Which he was. Normally, he wouldn't be so open about it, but he didn't think he had the heart to hide it this time.

Rowlin wasn't obviously paying attention to the price tags. Despite this he picked out like two last books before turning to see Evangeline, "I.. think this is more then enough for my vacation funds." He lightly stated, yet his face was still lit up with excitement. He had taken a counseling class back in college that talked about dividing all money into different funds. For Each job he would put a small amount into different accounts for different purposes. In this case he had both his book funds, and part of his vacation funds to use from.
"I appreciate the help, but i think I'm going to stop here before I regret it." He smiled, it was a little more then he could handle but he was determined to take these home-after work, to read them. "A-Actually if you could help me take some to the counter that would be much appreciated." He blinked then leaned out to hand her a stack.
Yin is gonna kill me.... That was now on his mind. Yet who cares it was books, in history no less!

Aika's eyes widened for a moment before she casted her gaze away from Dalton. "I-It's just a thought, though, really. I doubt the VDA would allow me to bring back such a role." It was all pure theory at this point anyways. All recordings on how to use this magic as a human were erased to prevent people from gaining such a powerful seat in the VDA.

He shrugged. "You never know. It seems like the kind of thing Calhoun would be interested in, lately." he thought out loud, thinking about to his boss's sudden obsession with getting the palace from yesterday explored top to bottom, and all the artifacts retrieved. Dalton wondered what he would say when he realized all they got were a few icicle samples. He better not send us back there.

She raised a brow as she leaned against the bookshelf, her arms crossed over her chest. "You think he'd want to bring the position back? I mean, he'd have to go through Steele first to get it approved, but what makes you think he'd want bring it back so suddenly?"

Dalton had to choose his words carefully here. He didn't want to reveal the entirety of the mission yesterday, but still, sharing his suspicions about Calhoun couldn't hurt, especially when they were about to discuss the man. "Lately, he seems to be a little- for lack of a better word, obsessed with blood magic. He had sent his team out on a mission to one site of it yesterday and James and I to another shortly after. In quick the hurry too."

"Wait seriously? Out of all forums of magic he wants to investigate that?" She turned and grabbed the book from earlier that had the lock and emblem on it then went over to the coffee table and opened one of the drawers, revealing where the key was before handing them to Dalton. "If he's investigating any source of blood magic, we all need to know what we could be getting ourselves into. The book should contain information on blood magic, more so on the corruption of it." There was a sudden knock at the door which interrupted their conversation. Aika rose to her feet as she went over to open the door. On the other side stood Naomi wit her hands shoved in her pockets. The two didn't exchange any words, Aika just gestured for her to come in.

"Hey Naomi," Dalton said from the couch, standing up. "Looks like James is right behind you," he added, pointing outside to the car that was pulling up.
James, seeing the door already open, darted towards it, stepping inside. "Sorry, am I late? I didn't see your text until I was already back at my house Aika," he explained, shutting the door behind him.

Naomi waved as she made her way over to one of the open chairs that was next to the couch and sat down.
"It's alright James's, sorry I didn't text you sooner." She said as she sat down in the corner of the couch again. "So, should we start?"
