Ayla Calhoune, rather new to Cassis, sat in the middle of the training field. Well, more like laid out on her back. She smiled up at the star filled sky, the sun having just set. She wore her second favorite outfit (Third picture on her profile) and her hair lay sprawled around her head. Kind of like a halo of sorts. But, she was no angel. Not at all. With hands laying palm up Ayla allowed the Sypsis freedom.
The metal covered creatures stretched from her hand, all six of them, and lashed about throwing a large clay ball between themselves. She smirked as they let out that high-pitched cry that left their throats once in a while. One laid itself across her stomach, it's beak like tip resting on her shoulder as if it slept. It was even breathing slowly to show it was napping. The Sypsis moved a bit, dragging cold and damp metal across her shoulder as it settled itself in a coil atop her stomach.
" Stop that, you're cold." She said rather softly, and the strange creature let out a soft cry as it lifted its head and settled it upon her shirt to keep from giving the girl a chill. The other five Sypsis lashed about wildly, as they continued to play catch, even though they were 'blind'. But, they weren't. Just saw with out eyes. Strange indeed, I know. Ayla laughed softly as two of the Sypsis bit into each other on accident. " Alright you two, that's enough." She said softly. They looked ot the girl and and slowly their body began to slide back into her palms until they were only a few feet long. Each metal-covered body brushed against Ayla's legs, arms and torso lovingly as they settled about and lay atop her and beside her.
" You like the night air, don't you?" She asked looking at each Sypsis in turn. Each one gave her a 'Yes' which resounded in her mind gracefully, as they're musical voices carressed her mind and made her feel more at ease as they carried on delicate conversation about the stars. "They are truly beautiful, you're right." Ayla said looking to one of the Sypsis whose head rested by her knee.

The night air chilled Vaan a bit as he walked into the training grounds for some late-night practice... he really thought it was better that way, since a lot of his abilities seemed to fit a nightish sort of mood... or maybe it was just him. He hadn't yet noticed the woman lying around, so he had already decided to take a spot to begin. He sat himself cross-legged on the ground, staring at a fairly decorative tree. He closed his eyes, letting darkness fill his mind... the chill seemed to stop...
His body became warm in itself before a blasting chill filled his body, then opening his eyes wide... he could see small balls of light everywhere around him... he felt peace. "I ask all of thee to bestow power in which I shall return..." Vaan said to them in a powerful voice. Small wavy lines of light creeped from the balls and sunk into his flesh... he could already feel a large energy difference in his body, and the small balls became less and less bright, until they seemed to be small fireflies... they disappeared. "And so I promise." Vaan said as he then stood up. Now he could begin his real training.
Just when he was about to get to work, he noticed the girl... finally... surrounded by what seemed like... in fact, he had no clue of what those things were. But, she seemed to feel fine being near them, so he guessed they might be friendly... to her, at least. After thinking it through, he then walked over to her, and stopped just a few meter away from the nearest... thing. "Hello, Miss..." Vaan said to her with a soft smile.

Dull gray-brown eyes rolled to the side Vaan was on and looked him over. She gave her own soft, kind, smile before looking back up to the sky. It seems she hadn't noticed anything but was fairly comfortable as she sat up and the Sypsis slide down her body to wrap themselves around her legs and waist. With a quick movement Ayla ran a hand through her hair to comb it out and turned to look at the boy before her. " Hello." She said rather plainly as she made to stand, the Sypsis curled around the arm which corresponded to the hand they came from.
" Don't mind them much, they won't eat you unless hungry. And they've already eaten." Ayla said rather calmly as two of the Sypsis slithered through the air to the young man. The would circle him and look him over and do it all over again. Again and again they would let out a rather quite screetch as if conversing with one another. " Alright, You two. Enough." Ayla said firmly as the other for Sypsis slowly sunk back through the cuts on her palms and disappeared. The two creatures that had been sizing Vaan up, for what I don't know, returned to Ayla and lovingly ran their metal covered bodies against her cheek before returning to the palms as well.
" I'm Ayla, Ayla Calhoune. What's your name?" She asked as she held a hand out for the young man to shake. Yes the cuts the creatures came from were still there but looked more like a cut that was a few days old and getting healed slowly. Dull gray-brown eyes fell to her palm for a second. " You don't have to shake it if you don't want to. I wouldn't want to shake a hand with those cuts." Laughed Ayla, however she left the hand out there incase he did and smiled warmly once more.

Vaan was somewhat shocked as the creatures circle around him, almost making him feel a bit uneasy... in their metal coats, he saw a soft blue glow circling his body's reflection. He hadn't seen that before... then again, he didn't get to a mirror much in the middle of the night, so it's reasonable. He felt a small bit of relief in her words about the whole 'already eaten' thing... when that thought passed, they seemed like likeable things. He was about to say something until she called the creatures back to her... palms?
"I don't know... they looked kind of cool, to tell you the truth." Vaan said as he took her held-out hand and shook it, with just as warm a smile as before. "My name is Vaan, Vaan Kin-su... I haven't seen you here before. Are you new?" Vaan asked her. It was always good to have another person at Cassis... it did sometimes get lonely. "If you ever want to talk to something interesting, it'd probably be a ghost... they can be pretty talkitive, but mostend up getting you to talk more to them." It was pretty random of him, but conversation never hurt.

Meikyu huffed angrily at the invisible spirit guiding her toward the training ground. She had been sleeping quite pleasently when Psyche had decided it would be a wonderful time for her to get better at shielding herself from hostile spirits. They come out more at night, he said. 'Sure, they come out more at night,' she thought, 'they're powered by the starlight and moonlight. You told me that yourself, you prick.' This certainly wasn't the first time she had been out to the training ground, but the diminished light was enough for her to skim past the two people in the distance. Then again, it didn't help when said people were behind a spirit that only she could see. As she silently fumed, Meikyu failed to notice her link stop moving and plowed right into him, reacting as if she had run into an actual person. Psyche turned to look at her, an eyebrow arching in amazement, <Mei, you really should watch where you're going. Anyway, I can see spirits gathering around some people ahead. Be on your guard.> Meikyu glared at her supposed guardian, how was she supposed to know she's actually feel him? She'd much rather be asleep in her comfy bed than out in the middle of the night with a spirit yelling at her. She felt herself near the anger point and let herself go, "Well, EXCUSE ME. How the heck was I to know I'd fall on my butt after running into you? After all, you ARE only a spirit." She walked around him, unconsciously approaching the people he was talking about. And Psyche, well, if spirits could blush, he would definitely have a pink hue on his cheeks at the moment.
