"Well, I'm not sure I can provide much input on the situation. I'm sure there would be plenty of people that wouldn't like a vampire for one reason or another. (Myself and my sisters excluded). But what happened when Shara first learned about it?"

"She said I wasn't allowed in her ship anymore. And she said once Desperado was taken care of...we'll she didn't make it clear WHAT she was going to do, but she was planning to do something...Maybe you can talk to her about it? Try to...calm her down? I don't want to have to fight her, you know?" Seras said, rubbing her arms nervously.

"Hoo yeah, that's the ticket."
Victoria said, sighing relaxedly as the pain in her shoulders started to alleviate.

[color=Haggard the Brave]"And you show far greater ignorance to what that one woman is capable of. Allowing her to live is equivalent to allowing the Cult of her ancestors to have a foothold in your world. What weapons you have to stop her would be meaningless against the myriad of innocent lives of your own people she would bring in line to thwart you as they nearly did with our own people?"[/color] The knight scoffed as he watched the diplomat walk out the far door. [color=Haggard the Brave]"Your people already give into their temptation of yeast risen pastries... It will not be long for them to raise an army like which we fought in battles past."[/color]

The knight then stood up from the groaning chair, looking at the two guards that he would have to pass by on his way out, not saying another word as he stood there brooding at the gall of the man he'd just had the displeasure of meeting.

"That's good to hear." Sophia acknowledged with a small smile, thankful to hear it was having the proper effect. "You know it actually took me a while to learn how to do this, the small amount of white chocolate that is." Sophia mentioned, feeling like she needed to talk about something.

"Yeah I get that. Control of that kinda stuff definitely takes work."
Vicky answered, seeming like she had an idea of what Sophia meant.

"Like when I first learned how to do this from Erica, I was using up way more mana than I should have been. One or two normal sized heals tired me out. A good way to put it is quality over quantity, you know?" She exclaiming. pressing the palm of her hand into Victoria's back a little more, rubbing the white magic in a little more. "I still have a long way to go before I can graduate though. Maybe by then I could have helped you out instead of having to bargain with those assholes..." She lamented, not sounding sad but more irritated with herself that should couldn't have helped out more.

Code:
"I know exactly what ya mean. Had to go through it myself when I was younger. Who's this Erica person though?"
Victoria shuddered slightly as Sophia applied more force.
Code:
"Don't worry it. It was my mistake, not yours."

"Erica was a woman from another dimension who also went to a magic college similar to mine. She's the one who taught me how to use white magic in the first place. She's a wonderful person, even if she's a bit forgetful at times. [small]Don't tell her I said that though.[/small]" Sophia answered back, whispering the last part. Noticing that Victoria shuddered, Sophia brought her hand away again, leaning to the side slightly to see if Victoria was in pain. "Was that too hard? Sorry about that."

After Victoria answered back if Sophia had been pushing too hard, Sophia would continued what she was doing lighter this time. "How old are you anyways Victoria, if you don't mind me asking?"

Code:
"She sounds nice."
Vicky commented. She glanced over at Sophia as she stopped.
Code:
"Nah, it's fine, keep going."
She hummed for a moment before answering Sophia.
Code:
"31 years in a few months. Or at least that's how it was back home."

"She is, it's odd but I saw a bit of myself in her for some reason. Well minus the forgetfulness part. Even though I only got to see her a couple of times, she was definitely one of my favourite teachers." Sophia reminisced pleasantly. "31? I was guessing around 28-30, so I guess that's close enough right?"

"So how long did it take you to learn your magic then, or... psion? Is that what it's called?"

"She sounds important to you. Hope you get to see her again."
Vicky smiled a little as she heard Sophia talk.
Code:
"28? Flattery like that will get ya wherever ya want."
She jokingly replied.

Code:
"Psionic powers, yeah. And it took me about 6 years to get as good at controlling them as I am now."

"I hope so too." Sophia agreed, nodding a little as she rubbed gently over Victoria's injuries again with the white chocolate. When Victoria mentioned the flattering, Sophia quieted for a moment a small amount of colour appearing on her cheeks, followed by a nervous grin. "Heh heh, right." She responded back awkwardly.

"Six years?" She repeated, thinking to herself for a moment. "I would have thought learning that kind of stuff would have taken a bit longer, but maybe psionic powers are a bit different. What's the simplest thing you can do with them?"

Code:
"Well, psionic powers are already ingrained into your mind if you have them. It's not learning to do, it's learning to control."
Victoria went about explaining.
Code:
"As for what I can do, best to just show you."
She stood up and pulled her shirt back down, then closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She manifested an invisible field of psionic energy around her feet, then pushed against the ground with one foot. She began moving along the ground like an ice skater across a frozen surface.

"Wait, what was that about Desperado? Was this person you bit also from Desperado?"

"Ya I had seen you do that before." Sophia nodded as she watched Victoria glide effortlessly across the ground. "So if it's not taught, but you just have it, how do you know who's got it and who doesn't?" Sophia asked, a little confused on how the rules worked for it.

Code:
"I'd have shown you something else, but there aren't any pools of water or tall things to jump off of around her."
Vicky replied to Sophia skating back over and sitting down next to her again.
Code:
"Well the way it usually works is that psionics develop in someone the same as the rest of their body, so you can't really tell until they've grown up a bit. After that it's just a case of looking for common signs. Things randomly catching fire, hearing weird voices, finding non-euclidean objects lying around, that sorta stuff."

"Well, are there specifics about what bodies you can drink from and what are the effects? Didn't you say you had to drink from a specific kind of person in order to become this super-vampire?"
