[The Quarters] Rekindled Interest [Kouri]

The wizard was silent through the process, watching and feeling how Kouri handled the situation. Even from the small bit of casting Anna could feel a thrill of pleasure run through her mind, it was shaky and sloppy but by Rhysol it felt damn good. Casting, the feelings and emotions that came with it, was like drug to her. An addiction that needed to be fed every now and again in order for her to feel right in her own body, even Rhysol's blessing was a poor substitute by comparison. It was blasphemous to think so, but it was the truth on a physical level at the very least.

In honesty, the casting itself was utterly pathetic for something that came from her. Such a slow and ponderous execution was hardly worthy of one like herself, but again, considering how weak Kouri was in regards to possession and how painfully ignorant she must be in respects to magic it was at least something. A sign that they could improve with practice, likely a lot of practice and possibly soulmist. Of course, this was assuming that Kouri would indeed wish to continue this partnership.

Anna couldn't take it any more, her body was screaming for her to evict the child from it. Her limbs felt pretty sore by this point, certainly it was not going to be fun waking up in the morning after for this. She needed to push Kouri out now, before something potentially crippling occurred.

Yes, you did very well, precious child. However I can't hold back any more, you need to get out. The wizard informed her.

Without much more preamble the wizard simply dropped her guard against her natural response. More than that Anna gave the ghost child a mental push out, gentle but firm. It wasn't very difficult as Kouri was indeed quite unskilled at the art of possession, pushing her out was as simple as willing her to be gone.

When the ghost finally did depart her body, Anna would find herself on her hands and knees gasping for breath. Each intake would be cold and chilling, as though the air about the ghost still lingered within her lungs. Her body felt sore, uncomfortably so and she herself needed to take a moment to stop her limbs from shaking. All in all, it was pretty unpleasant as far as aftermaths went.

When she caught her breath she'd address Kouri, a slightly embittered grin on her face as she gazed at the floor.

"Pathetic, I couldn't even last that long. Reduced to a panting dog after so short a time. Goes to show what kind of Spiritist I am." She whispered, angered and frustrated that she had not possessed any ability to stop her responses.

Practically, she realized that these things took time and that patience was required for success. However a part of her wanted more, she wanted to be able to share control or at least last longer than that before she was reduced to this. It would certainly take more practice before either was a possibility, unfortunately.

"My apologies for the rough kick Kouri. My own fault there, as I've said I'm not much of a Spiritist. Are you alright?" The wizard asked, her eyes finally leaving the floor.

Light began filling her vision, it was imminent, she must leave. Closing Anna's eyes, the ghost girl prepared herself as she felt the puppet strings she had been holding vanished and her ethereal form pushed out from the puppet's body.

Kouri's small body "exited" Anna like she was some kind of door, she felt exhausted. Manipulating her soulmist or materializing herself was as easy as turning the back of her hand, but possession drained her rapidly. The little girl's vision was blurring and unfocused, but she could still make up the kneeling woman as Anna. "Madame Anna, are you alright?" Even her voice was barely audible and echoing all over the place, a whisper in a non-existent wind.

"Unh..." Kouri didn't feel like talking so when Anna pitied herself, the ghost girl didn't give much of a response. She only shook her head slightly and smiled as if telling Anna not to be so pessimistic. Looking down at her own form, it was now flickering and unsteady, like she was a floating oil paint. She would have to rest soon. The ghost girl made her way to one corner of Anna's room, lay down, and curled up on the ground.

"Ehehe..." Voicing a small giggle, Kouri's eyes fluttered to a close, concealing her crimson orbs beneath her pale eyelids. A steady stream of frost mist escaped her small mouth as she rested, closing her consciousness. She looked happy, happy at finally finding a friendly Spiritist on the island. Wanda was good, but she was obviously not friendly.

There would be much activities she could do together with Anna in the future, she was sure of it.

OOCAlright, I think this should be my last post for the thread. :) You can post it for grading if you'd like, Anna.

Looking forward to meet you again at the Quest! :D

Truth Hidden by a Mirage :
Hey you two! Great thread! Lol I am sorry it took so long to grade, but WOW it was worth it! There were a TON of lores I could have given you. Seriously there were a lot, but I tried to pick out the ones that were most relevant or useful. If you want any other lores do not hesitate to PM me. I just didn't want to fill up your lore page too quickly haha.

Anna extra points in Spiritism for the clever way you manipulated Fubuki to get the info you needed! As we all know Spiritism is not just about taming spirits, its about learning to negotiate and talk with them to find out their deepest troubles and hopefully help them fulfill whatever is holding them to this world. That is also why you got the extra points in Rhetoric and Persuasion, oh and Acting because of Anna's subtle manipulations. Very good job ^.^

Fubiki, there are your two points ;). I gave the extra point because you DID use reimancy (kinda) while possessing someone, so I felt that warranted the point lol. Good job to the both of you!
