One minute I held the key [OTA]

Who: Eleven, a largely optional Hendrik, and you!
When: March, sometime!
Where: Various bits of Anastara
What: Eleven tries to be normal while dogged by a persistent shadow.
Other: +/-1 options for the prompts are for a bonus Hendrik if you'd like! As Eleven's new sworn bodyguard, he has a tendency to follow him everywhere- but Eleven also likes to try giving him the slip.


A. Temple Study Buddy
First Ring- Temple of Raida Library

[It's Eleven's new favorite place to study, combining prayer and academics into unparalelled focus. Intimation and Religion studies become a breeze and even Language feels a little less like the mind-numbing struggle it has been.

He's kicked back and sitting parallel to the table with a book in one hand and jotting down notes with the other. It's a good place to find him if anyone were looking, and an even better place to find some quiet.

At least until he gets a little too relaxed and tips back too far in his chair.

Eleven crashes to the floor with a short yelp, then an oof when the heavy tome takes a free punch at his gut as it falls]


..Ow.

(+1 option)
[Don't mind the middle-aged man with purple hair sitting in the corner and throwing suspicious looks at anyone that comes within a few feet of Eleven- that's just his face]


B. Sparring Practice
Magicademy- Courtyard

[As outlined in his post to the bulletin board, Eleven has in fact been sparring out in the Academy's courtyard every single day after classes, so it isn't really anything new, but the invitation itself is.

It may have been born partly out of desperation for someone else to spar with ( or for someone to take his place sparring against Hendrik) but the offer is genuine all the same. He likes fighting, and the opportunity to erase the stifling strain of classroom study is entirely too appealing to give up in even the worst bits of weather.

So even as the seasonal lightning crashes overhead and the rains pour down, Eleven maintains his regimen. Whether it's sword or fists against Hendrik, enchanted dummies, or a new sparring partner, he's in perfectly good spirits and spoiling for a fight]


Come on- again!

(+1 option)
[Feel free to interrupt Hendrik and Eleven sparring, be watched whilst fighting against Eleven- or even set up against Hendrik yourself while Eleven cheers for you from the sidelines]


C. Exploring Anastara
Anywhere

You don't have to follow me everywhere, you know.

[The words are a long-suffering sort, as though they've been repeated a hundred times to no avail.

Eleven sighs and throws a look back to his new bodyguard as they walk along the city streets. It's been a bit since he arrived, but the man's constant presence is starting to wear on him. In some ways, it rather feels like he simply can't relax when he's around- like his vigilance is contagious or something.]


No one even knows who I am. I'm pretty sure they don't have any reason to attack me.


(-1 option)
[Or if you'd rather catch Eleven alone in Anastara proper, you might find him on the run from said bodyguard~]

Hendrik stepped back from Lea and looked at Eleven. "I take it that you have not divulged your true nature and purpose." He paused a moment, pondering. "Mayhaps that is for the best. But that will not stop me from fulfilling mine."

There was a silence that followed, as the knight had pondered Lea's candle comment. But after a nod, he decided that he'd just go along with things.

Turning back to Lea, Hendrik spoke again. "You are fortunate to have someone from your world with you here."

True nature and purpose....?

Was... was Eleven like her somehow? A created thing, rather than a person? She... wasn't the only one?

Lea didn't miss the look Eleven tossed Hendrick, or how quick he was with an explanation. Whatever being a 'Luminary' meant, Eleven was obviously less than comfortable with the role. Lea took the hint, and made a mental note not to bring it up around Eleven in the future unless necessary.

"More than one actually," he said. "But Sora's in a different dorm, so I don't see quite as much of him as I do Xion."

"And I bet it's nice for you guys too," he said. "A little something familiar amid all the craziness."

She looked really confused at that and... almost wanted to ask... but did not.

But she was mostly still thinking about what it could have meant, if he really was like her. Was that why he had been so upset by what she had to say....?

"It's more of a relief actually." Hendrik nodded and then his eyes went from Lea back to the Luminary. In a strange world, at least the heavens had been kind enough to deliver him to the one person that mattered the most, the very one whose mission it was to save the world.

And it was his personal mission to keep the Luminary safe until the world itself was saved.

She looked down at her hands, unsure if she should ask, unsure... what even to ask.

"Funnily enough, Sora and I didn't start out on good terms either," Lea said. "Though in fairness to him, I was being kind of an evil jerk at the time."

"But yeah, I can kinda understand it being a relief too. Especially since the fact that I haven't seen Eleven anywhere without his sword leads me to believe that you guys' world probably isn't any safer than mine and Xion's is at the moment. Not that I'm knocking either of you for it, or anything; I really miss being able to summon my weapon s at a moment's notice."

"Huh," Lea said. "We must have it at different times then, cause I've been taking Forging too. Partly because of the weapon thing, and partly because it was one of the only classes that I actually thought looked interesting in this place."

"That's actually why I picked this book up at the library." He held the book so the others could read the title, A Pictorial History of Magical Weapons. "Figured it might give me some ideas."

Forging? Could... Could a Keyblade be made? She was pretty sure it couldn't, because it had to be easier to make a weapon than to make her... right?
