things that go bump

who: Seto Kaiba and you
what: Spooky late night sneaking around!
where: Purifeul tower or the hallways of the Magicademy
when: After good students have gone to bed
warnings: none anticipated. Maybe some spoopy ghosts later.



Of the many things Kaiba dislikes about life at Diatu Magicademy, the dormitory arrangement nears the top of the list. He usually makes himself scarce in the Purifeul tower, retreating to back corners to study or holding the pillow over his head. After spending most of his life cherishing solitude, enjoying giving others a wide berth, to be so crowded in is a real pain.

((prompt a: for purifeul))

Fellow students in Purifeul tower will find him in the common room long after he's supposed to be in bed, drawing circles in front of him with a wand. There's sort of a hazy barrier around his chair, and it's intended to keep the sound out, but in practice it's creating a weird reverb effect in the common room, along with the slight chime of bells. Have fun with that, late night snack seekers!

((prompt b: for all late night wanderers))

As far as anyone else who walks the castle at night? They'll find Kaiba hiding at the base of a staircase, sitting at the edge of a moonlit patch on the ground. He's trying a different spell here, one that results in a cloud of golden glitter coating him and the entire patch of ground.

He huffs, brushing it from his hair. That is not the intended effect...but he does suddenly feel a little more relaxed. That part, at least, is intended. And should anyone approach, he'll lift a hand to attempt to dismiss them. "Despite appearances, it's under control."

Eleven breaks out in a grin. "I wouldn't want you to. But you are a lot taller than I am."

He sets his books down, then ducks out of his baldric and sets his sword aside as well. He didn't leave his dorm with the intention of getting into a fight, but here he is getting ready for one.

Eleven raises his arms in a stretch, then swings his shoulders at odds with the twist of his torso.

"What's your name?"

It only seems polite, after all.

"Eleven," he grins and settles into a stance that still feels foreign to him. He hasn't practiced since Jade's last lesson in the First Forest, but he remembers the way he's supposed to move for a few strikes and feints.

"Ready." He looks Seto over, noting his long legs and lanky frame. A lot of reach, but also vulnerable. He's shorter than his opponent, though he'd like to think he could weather attacks a bit more.

Get in close and knock him down, he decides, and leaps for Seto without further thought.

Eleven blinks, then straightens with a rueful grin. He's quick to offer Seto a hand up.

"Sorry, might have been too aggressive there. How about you attack me this time?"
