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.Ā āSomeday-āĀ she thought,Ā āIāll REALLY be able to help people with my magicā¦just you wait, Master.āĀ
Her little daydream was, however, interrupted by an unfortunatelyĀ familiar voice calling out to her. the young skydweller immediately turned to look in the direction of his voice, hands gripping her staff defensively.Ā Her brow furrowed, as she did her very best to put on anĀ āintimidating glareāĀ
It was cute, more than anythingā¦
Listening to his words, she did relax a little though. He had a point.Ā It was, perhaps, foolish to listen to him; a sign of Ioās 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.Ā Ā
āFriends, huh? I donāt know whatĀ youāre trying to get at butā¦I-Iām watching you, you know! I know your tricks, Belialā¦ā She trailed offā¦intimidated just a little by his presence. Just what could he be planning⦠(maybe nothing, Io?) He had to have a reason for thisā¦what did he want from her? She had to be carefulā¦
She couldnāt let him get under her skin. Under no circumstances should she-
āHuh-?!āĀ
āD-donāt call meĀ āIo-chanā like Iām some kind of little kid-!ā She exclaimed, holding up her staff and pointing it right at him, annoyance evident in both her voice and face. āIāll wipe that infuriating smile clean off your face myselfĀ if you keep that up, youā¦youā¦youā¦Mega Jerk-Face!āĀ
