Eruda

Lifting her head slightly, then closing her eyes again, not comprehending yet that Rai had walked in. Finally it clicked, as Eruda jumps upright in the seat trying to fix the mess on her head. "Not sure why, but I didn't think you were going to be home this morning," saying in a cracky voice. Clearing the throat, getting up and heading to the tea kettle that was now hooting. Turning the burner off, seeing the two cups and mats set, Eruda smiles. Pouring some steaming hot water into the mugs saying, "I was going to take Raserei to the lake today. Maybe a few sandwiches, really the only thing i

Peering through the window, a light of early morning rising. Hearing a yawn from a wolf at the edge of the bed. Pulling the covers to block the sun. "Just a few more minutes," a muffle of voice before a pounce of weight upon her chest. Apparently Raserei had other idea's. Pushing the covers up and over the blue flame burrowing her beneath. Giving a small playful growl before poking a head out, catching Eruda by surprise with a large wet one. Small chuckling before the wolf hops off the bed, pushing her nose toward the door, running out. Eyes drift toward the glass with a sigh. Getting ou

Opening that door, softly closing it and locking it. Eruda would go to the guild hall and pick up a few things before heading to floor 6. Wandering through the town of floor 6, it was dark, early and silent. Not a peep within the area around her. Eruda was alone, taking a deep rough breath. It would be clear that Eruda was having a bit of trouble, but nothing that she couldn't handle. That dream was getting to her, not by complete intention though. It felt so real when it was happening, but Eruda knew better. Nothing like that would happen like it did. Firm Anima was smarter than that, Eruda h

Placing both hands on the sink, staring into the mirror. Eruda has changed so much since she first came into this game, it was night and day different. Everything was so different and maybe she was getting worked up for absolutely nothing, but she still couldn't help but think about everything. How far she and Raidou had come, Freyd and Eruda had become actual friends. Eruda had friends... That was something that she had loathed for most of her life. Everything that has happened... Eruda smiles at her reflection. It was most likely nothing, for all she knew that dream that she had was somethin

A slow, deep breath, Eruda found that she was crying when a hand was pressed to her cheek and if came back wet. Shaking her head, breath was cracky. This dream felt so real this time. Everything that could have possibly gone wrong did. Time and time again since they got back from talking with Morrighan, when Raidou finally became real to her. Every day from then, Eruda has had little to no sleep. It had been weeks and regardless of whether or not Eruda thought that it couldn't happen, that it wouldn't happen that way, they all still just died. Every last one of them. "I can't do this any

Setsuna gets grabbed from mid air and thrown to the ground. Eruda's eyes widen in terror, as Kasumi's pedals burst into nothing as she lays on the ground and pops herself. Tears fall down Eruda's face as Gaius had a spear plunged in his heart, Freya right next to him as a sword cuts clean through her neck. Eruda couldn't breath, grasping for air as a piece of her, lost. Eruda pulls her shield up as a hardy bulk of a weapon was holding resistance. Eyes lock on her father, surrounded, unable to fend them off. Eruda's chest felt heavy with emotion as she feels a blade carve up her spine, causing

Eruda spends the morning cleaning house on floor 1. Placing her equipment on her back, Eruda was far from done for the day. New quests were showing up and from the readings on the red oak table, the information of some stood nearly blank. To Eruda that meant that Raidou had not yet investigated for the normal calculations. Taking out a small purple notebook that had all of those listings within it. Choosing one at pure random, there was a lot that needed to be done. A small circle by that quest name, closing that book and heading up to floor 25 for preparations. Raserei at her feet as th

Turning to Raidou as he spoke, a simple nod calling out. "Gaius, Freya help Simmonè. Shiina a little help," Eruda knew that Shiina had remarkable abilities, she wanted to know how far the young one could go. As Raidou extends a helping hand from behind, you could feel the ground shakes as Griswold comes to join her. Looking to her father, "FTK," is all she had to say and the man understood. Eruda carves that sword against her shield as Griswold smashes that hammer lighting his large fortress. Slamming that metal together with sparks of blue and orange flames wrap around the 3 of them like wild

Quietly watching the tournaments take place, she felt ashamed of her actions. Not only did Eruda embarrass the crap out of herself, but she also gave an unwanted apology that went seemingly nowhere. Taking a bite of that tiny candy apple, it only took a few before it was gone. Tossing the stick in a garbage that she found, she takes a deep breath. Today was not going like she wanted, there would be some days that wouldn't, but she would try to make the best of them anyway. Eruda had to just let whatever was going to happen, happen. This was only the second festival that Eruda had been to

"Hmm, you're right. I seemed to mixed work with fun... I'm disgusted..." Eruda folds one arm against her chest as the other taps on the tip of her chin looking to the ceiling. "Ooh, maybe we can... No" a pause as her foot starts to tap in echoing ripples against the water on the ground. "I know a... Nah, not there..." Eruda was going through places that she liked. Showing Raidou what he had been missing, Eruda had not a clue where he'd been already. Maybe it meant something deeper than that though. Eruda was glad that this place was a decent gathering spot, but Raidou was right, it could wait.

Following in behind Raidou, staying close. The entrance was narrow and a bit shallow in height, but being down here before, Eruda knew what it opened up to. As they enter the wider space, the ceiling was about 7 feet up, Eruda would pass by him. "When I was down here last I saw this," going straight for an unlit torch attacked to the wall that gave an unmovable error when touched. Holding out her hand, curling her fingers up, in one swift movement it was open again with a blue flame. Eruda puts those flames against the kindled wrapped stick, with a flare of sparks, the room is lit up. The ligh

Pressing her lips together, with a small inhale. "Floor 24," as the wolf jumps on the pad at just the right time. Landing on a gravel like dirt, as Raidou comes in shortly after. "It's a little bit of a walk, but I promise it's worth it." A smile given to the man. People were still staring at him, after all this time. They feared him, yet Raidou didn't seem bothered. Eruda could honestly care less if people started talking. Already hearing some around towns that she found herself frequenting in. In more ways than one, even when Eruda wasn't with him, she felt safe. Walking side by side, t

Eruda can't help but smile at his response, drinking the rest of the tea in her cup. "So that is why you were still here, you could have woken me." Eruda gets up from her chair, pushes it in as Raserei jumps back leaning forward on her front paws playfully. "You're so weird sometimes," saying to her wolf as she runs to the door and just sits waiting. Setting her cup in the sink, filling it with water. Raidou made it seem like he had the whole day, nothing planned just her. It was such a crazy thing to think about. In Eruda's daily affairs, she would be at the guild hall checking notes, most of

"Freyd don't you dare," as he made like a banana split and SPLIT. Giving a sigh as she looks back at the two. Xena gives a few words and starts to leave too. "God, no Xena wait..." as she walks off to the buffet. Lifting her head a little and closing her eyes. "This was not how this was supposed to go," opening her eyes slowly to meet Raidou's. "I will make this right, I am so sorry, I'll bring her back..." saying as she runs toward the buffet too. Quickly looking around at all the food and treats... -TREATS, Every one like sweets right- Eruda thought as she looked at her options. Lemon

Smirking at his comment, "Fair enough, but it wasn't what I was referring to." Grabbing her coffee cup and the Bento dish that was now empty, rinsing that coffee cup out. A smile with a small chuckle, shaking her head. Eruda would let those dishes soak before taking soap to them. Walking a few steps to stand in from of the man, placing her hand on his chest where his heart would be, "I don't want to break this, with my extreme actions. We already know how that story ended. That would be your page to pick back up." Biting the corner of her lip, that warmth against her hand, that gaze. Eruda was

Feeling that nudge, Eruda glances to where it came from. Freyd stood with a smile, she would give a half smile and look back into the crowd. "I wasn't going to come, but then I realized that the one fear I have never gotten over is crowds like this." Following Freyd gaze, it was to Raidou. He too was wearing that cloth from the last event. With people walking back and forth, some she recognized from the raid, others she didn't. This was the second event in her entire life that Eruda had been too, "He is speaking with someone," Everything about this was nerve wrecking. The guild was different,

"Start over..." Eruda says in almost a question... Finally able to make her hands move the way she wanted, Eruda takes a bite. "That is just what needs to happen though. Change, for me." It was a very weird concept for her. Pushing her cup to the side, eyeing the kettle and the other empty cup. Today was the day for new things, starting fresh. Soft, wind blowing against the glass panels, "I say too much and do the wrong thing or I do nothing, say nothing and it goes nowhere." Pouring herself a cup of that tea. The steam, the smell, hitting her nose as she takes a sip. Setting it down, a finger

Palms were sweety, they were being held in the long sleeves of her Kimono. Chest was tight, she felt like she couldn't breath. The last event like this Eruda was at was the Tanabana, even then she was surrounded my people that were known to her. After everything that had happened, there were a few problems that Eruda had to take care of. Being in a large group of people was a major one. Freyd had mentioned this place, and to be honest, Eruda wasn't going to come. -Freyd better be here or I'm gonna kill him...- Eruda thought. Walking through those doors, there was so many people. So loud,

A smile as Raidou spoke. "You heard him, don't let them get on those transports. Freya, Gaius, Griswold, with me." Looking into the crowd of soldiers as they all started rushing to the exit points. Eruda watches them split into several groups now. Following them with her eyes, her gaze shifts to another crowd heading the opposite direct. They were everywhere and they just kept coming. Getting a layout of the surroundings, it seemed as though they were being cut down from behind. Good... " @Freya , @Griswold," calling out as they link eyes with Eruda. Eruda would simply point her sword to

Eruda narrows her eyes with a smirk trying not to laugh. "I guess you're not completely wrong, but Freyd you have a thing or two to learn about this stuff." Regardless, Eruda's face was red, but it was easier to talk to Freyd about this, no feeling and all. Eruda just shakes her head. "For one, if we forced it to happen then it wouldn't feel right. If one or the other doesn't want it at that time, it also wouldn't feel right." Setting a hand on his shoulder, "The moment has to be set, the mind has to be all there. That is how I know it will be passionate. It can't just be on a whim, it has to
