#luz 01

Kay spends a lot of her time in the Mistwood, given that she lives there and it’s a long walk into the city. Visitors aren’t exactly rare, but it is weird seeing someone exploring so deep in the woods. And a human, too!

“Hey, are you lost?” She swings down upside-down from the tree she was climbing, coming face-to-face with the human. “I dunno what you’re looking for, but there’s nothing that way ‘cept more woods.”

...

“I thought that that the plants here would become rather lonely in my absence, but I’m relieved to see that my assumption was wrong.”

Now that he had settled back into life on the island, Watanuki thought it was time to return to his shop in the Cotes forest; feeling a familiar pull tugging at his wrists as he travelled through the colourful trees. A force he once thought that belonged to that place, calling him back after the months he’d been gone; but upon arriving.. he soon realized that it must have been fate’s hand guiding his way.

Someone waiting for him here was not unusual, and yet, what the young girl was doing before him was rather unexpected; drawing a few symbols in the dirt next to his plants that had become wilted, and seemingly willing new life into them.

It was magic he was familiar with, yet had not seen anyone else here perform before-- let alone by someone so clearly human as her.

“Hey, how are you doing that light thing?” Ed puts his hands in his pockets as he walks up beside this girl. The light definitely makes it easier to see in the mist, but he's never seen anything quite like it. It doesn’t look like fire, at least not any that he’s ever seen-- hopefully she doesn’t mind his curiosity.

While it wasn’t a surprise to see her here, it took Lloyd a second to really register that the girl before him was Luz; not used to seeing her in anything other than her casual clothes. He felt like they were both pretty similar to one another in that regard, not really caring much about their appearances-- but hey, they were at a party, so it was kinda expected for everyone, right?

And despite how much it surprised him, Lloyd was actually getting used to wearing his formal wear.. but he was sort of regretting wearing it once he heard what was going on in the cellar.

“Nice to see you outside of work for once! Hey, were you heading to the paintball area, too? I have no idea what it is, but it sounds like it’s gonna be fun! Wanna come with me?” 

“I know abstract art is supposed to be, well, abstract, but...” Carmen tilts her head to the side. staring at the canvas. The weather’s nice, so she’d been checking out an outdoor art exhibit in the park. There’s a girl standing nearby looking at the same piece, so Carmen turns to her with a smirk.
