The primal, spotting the young skydweller, walked over, chuckling when he saw how on guard she was. "Woah there, I know we had a rough start, but I won't attack without warning. Besides, I'm part of the crew now, so what do you say we start over and try becoming friends, hmm? Io-chan." (Belial being slimy as per usual gbnnbffh)
Io was minding her own business, for the most part, not really up to anything in particular..just whiling away these immature blue days - as if awaiting the day she would well and truly bloom. ‘Someday-’ she thought, ‘I’ll REALLY be able to help people with my magic…just you wait, Master.’
Her little daydream was, however, interrupted by an unfortunately familiar voice calling out to her. the young skydweller immediately turned to look in the direction of his voice, hands gripping her staff defensively. Her brow furrowed, as she did her very best to put on an ‘intimidating glare’
It was cute, more than anything…
Listening to his words, she did relax a little though. He had a point. It was, perhaps, foolish to listen to him; a sign of Io’s own immaturities, but he did have a point. If he tried anything here he would have the entire crew on him in less than a second… A quiet sigh was heard as she relaxed a little more, standing down and loosening her grip on her staff.
“Friends, huh? I don’t know what you’re trying to get at but…I-I’m watching you, you know! I know your tricks, Belial…” She trailed off…intimidated just a little by his presence. Just what could he be planning… (maybe nothing, Io?) He had to have a reason for this…what did he want from her? She had to be careful…
She couldn’t let him get under her skin. Under no circumstances should she-
“Huh-?!”
“D-don’t call me ‘Io-chan’ like I’m some kind of little kid-!” She exclaimed, holding up her staff and pointing it right at him, annoyance evident in both her voice and face. “I’ll wipe that infuriating smile clean off your face myself if you keep that up, you…you…you…Mega Jerk-Face!”
