[CLOSED] If At First You Don't Succeed...
Who: Noa & Tyzias
What: Trying some barrier spells! Stop poking the dragon kids.
Where: Entrance of the Caverns
When: Mid November
Warnings: None
It is 10 AM sharp, near the entrance of the caverns beneath the academy. There is no intention to go inside, however.
Noa stands and frowns at the entrance in particular, having done so many times before. Even thinking of the collar Tyzias' cat now has can't improve his mood enough, which is a shame, because seeing it referred to as a 'noise wriggler' made his absolute day.
But now they're back here. Is there even much use in putting a barrier up, he wonders? That dragon has actually come Back outside now. Will it actually stay down there if left unbothered? If no one goes to poke them with a stick so to speak?
Noa sighs, and beside him on their carrier/palanquin, Adelai watches. At least the emperor himself is here, or something.

The fact is, Tyzias isn't entirely wrong about the idea of another human experiencing that sort of life. Without even realizing it, perhaps, she's described the unfortunate state of things for years on end for his step-brother. But for himself...
He closes his eyes, and when he opens them they are glazed with sadness. "...Because it needs to be done," he eventually says, looking back to the cave with narrowed eyes. "I'm no stranger to studying for hours- admittedly, that's by choice," he snorts, a wry smile on his face. "It's certainly...a poor habit," Noa adds. Indeed, it's been harder than he'd like to remember that sleep is a thing he needs.
But...
"...But it seems as if people have done nothing but attempt to break into this place ever since it was discovered that there's a dragon inside. What we did is certainly tiring...but if it means we can keep things from worsening? ...I consider that well worth it," he says quietly.
sorry for minimalist tag about to head out
Tyzias narrows her eyes.
"But why do you, a kid who's... what. Twelve, thirteen in human years? Why do you think it's your responsibility to do it instead of asking, say, a professor to help? Or the, uh, older brother that you have here? Remember you mentioning him once..."

"I've been offering help to the professors, actually- I think one of them was brought to tears with how many kept on trying to slip through anyway...and-"
Ah.
"Ah...Seto?" He blinks. "Seto is only...somewhat older, if that makes sense. Looks can be deceiving~" he adds with a smirk.
he's still 12 though
