Black Mage Village RP Thread :)

[feathered_mages]

Another normal still-wintery day in the Village. At least Arashi's mood has been marginally better now that he knows his 'pet' isn't dead.

Which means all three Waltzes are back to perching in a group - for now on top of the bakery again. Mostly because it's warm there, but also because Mr. 44 just finished a batch of cookies and they're eating some.

Thinking, and thinking quickly. The other two Waltzes might know that Arashi does need help controlling his temper (he's sure Mistral does, but Blaze?)... but still, the other two might not want to be left out. And he'd have to ask the older Mages first, if only to stop them thinking he's kidnapped their 'kids'. Wouldn't want Rydia coming after him~!

But first things first! "How would you like to go somewhere with me?"

[feathered_mages]

Oh, Blaze figured it out after the other Waltz cast thunder on him once while they were out flying.

"Ok!" chirps Blaze almost immediately.

Mistral nods.

"Where?" asks Arashi.

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

"Here, on Gaia. Outside the village." A pause. "If no one minds." 'No one' being the ones raising the Waltzes.

[feathered_mages]

Oooh, look at them perk up at the idea of getting out of here and going somewhere other than the Nexus.

"We don't mind at all," says Blaze. Subconscious pecking order at work - Ask the Mages for permission? Why? They're Waltzes.

"Is that safe?" Mistral asks, being the practical one again. "Humans aren't supposed to see us, or they might do something stupid."

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

"I meant the rest of the village." Something else he can help them work with!

A nod to Mistral. "There won't be any humans around. They aren't everywhere, you know."

[feathered_mages]

"We haven't been out of the village before, except to the Nexus," Blaze says, "so how would we know where humans are."

"Oh, you mean tell Mr. 288 or Vivi?" says Mistral. After all, they're sort of in charge of the Mages, right. "Or Rydia?"

"If you want to tell Mikoto, you'll have to tell her yourself," Arashi adds, thinking of the other person sometimes found in charge. "We're not talking to her."

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

"...Someone should have told you." No one's teaching the Waltzes either? What a waste. :/

"No, not Mikoto." Considering she wants the Waltzes to be killed, from what he's heard before. "But the rest should know."

[feathered_mages]

"I don't think any of them go anywhere," says Blaze. "Except to Condie Petie to trade. And there are just dwarves there, no humans."

Mistral looks around, fluttering up into a tree to see if he can spot anyone. He then lands again. "Vivi's over there," he says, pointing.

Arashi continues his silence so far.

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

"None of them? Not even the genomes?" Figures. >_>

Mistral gets a nod. He'll head that way soon~.

[feathered_mages]

"Why would they," Blaze says. "They like it here."

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

"To see new things." Shouldn't need any more reason then that~.

And now he's going to go talk to Vivi!

[feathered_mages]

The Waltzlets follow along. Vivi's not far away, and looks over at them as they approach.

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

A polite nod at Vivi, and the Waltzes might notice the Mage doesn't get quite as nice treatment as they and Mikoto did.

"Would you mind if these three left the village with me...?"

[lil_mage_vivi]

...

...

"Will you bring them back?"

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

......

"Yes."

[lil_mage_vivi]

Can't really blame Vivi for having trouble shaking the idea that Kuja + Waltzes off somewhere together = mass destruction. He almost asks if they're going to hurt anyone, butch catches himself. After all, he hopes the Waltzlets know better and would come home if it was something like that...

"O-okay."

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

Really, Kuja should be used to it by now.

"Alright, then." And that's all he wanted! They can be off now~.

[feathered_mages]

And the Waltzlets just follow. Poor Kuja, they're all hyper and wound up now. Yay, field trip!

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

They might not be as soon as they see what he wants them to do! D:
Sadly, he still hasn't figured some things out about people.

Just outside the village he'll stop. "It's a long way, too far to walk... I'll have to use a PINPoint."

[feathered_mages]

And they pause, and blink, and try to remember what that means... They have the vaguest recollection that someone using a PINPoint meant they had to do something... but what?

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

He hadn't even thought that they might not know what a PINPoint was. "It's a teleportation machine from the Nexus, that's all."

[feathered_mages]

They nod slowly, and Mistral says, "I... think we've seen one. When we were LOLed. It's all fuzzy..."

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

"They're very fast." And he knows how to work them, so if the Waltzes don't mind, he'll have to touch all of them~.

[feathered_mages]

Oh yeah. That's what they couldn't quite remember!

Glomp~

[on-this-stage.livejournal.com]

He should have remembered it'd be this easy~.

And PINPointing them off! Into a large, empty field, with a forest off in the distance. Dali is nearby, but far enough that they can't be seen (or see it) from here.
