-The forest witch looked at ‘Metallia’ with a tad bit of shock to how just level headed she was. Sure she wasn’t exactly nice to her, she didn’t think she’d ever be nice to her again, but this was far more relaxed she had seen her in a long time. She was conflicted however. —>

she very much wants to avoid. For her sake AND her master's. Perhaps she was a bit harsh with her last statement, but the sooner this is over, the better.|

-At first, the other seemed taken aback by her comment, even causing her own confidence to falter for a moment before regaining her composure. Even if it wasn’t what she wanted to hear exactly there was a wave of relief that came over her when she heard the others voice. —>

The only basis she had for this is that the actual swamp witch hated the nickname Seina had given her for convenience sake. Hated it, and always got mad at her whenever she said it. So, while not nice, she'll start like that1

-The mud from the pillar was exactly the same as the one found all around the swamp witches house. So these pillars that housed them acted as containers or more accurately, sealers of some kind rather than a way to transport them around. Though of course, Metallia found a way to do just that. —>

swamp mud. Thus she had gained yet another trait on her way to become a substitute swamp witch.|

vivi This whole thread is really making me wanna write a solo for Metallia detailing just what she’s doing and why. And I can even have it set up an event of some kind too! I got too many ideas for her

-She was just lucky she didn’t fall in, or even discover a secret underneath the house as a hole. If she did not even all of the mana reducing necklaces in the world could save her for long… The green sea up above was but a fraction of its true scope… But that was an adventure for later. —>

Just because she wore the appearance of a swamp witch, meant not she was one. She's not seen immediate problems yet, but she can guess her current healthy condition wasn't gonna last. Or, at least, she can guess she won't be "the same Sei" due to this misshap|

-There was one clear window where she could have a shot of flying out of it. Her bedroom window. It was on the second floor and the window lead directly outside, it was perfect! …well, almost perfect. Just outside her window was a small wooden patch surrounding the house. —>

A suspicous act, of course, but gosh is she dead set ot analyzing anything and everything done by these three just to get her answers|

-A look of interest appeared on the swamp witches face. That name had been muttered about a few times while she scoped the city out. Yet she always disregarded it as hearsay or of a small group not worth her attention.- “Maybe a watchdog for your little group~” —>

A puzzled look briefly crossed Zero’s face as he tried to understand how she’d arrived at that conclusion. Even so, he saw no point in taking offense over a remark from someone who knew very little about him. “I’m a Maverick Hunter, not anyone’s watchdog,” he replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

vivi Apologies for taking long with replies today. I’ve been yugiohing all day, also off topic but I’m so excited for the new marincess cards to be released in a couple days I love this deck

-All the talk of souls could certainly make a person uncomfortable or at least question the intentions of the other… Whatever secrets Metallia was hiding she wasn’t doing a great job keeping others from suspecting anything. Still, she wouldn’t fork them over easily. —>

as she rumaged through any and all visible notes on the table. ... Until her attention turned towards the wood long stick (broom). It would make traversal SO much easier... ... She picked up, placed it horizontally under her butt and let herself fall a bit to see if it would work|

-Once she leaves… It was something Metallia couldn’t fathom, nor did she even think twice about it. She WAS still under the contract so she couldn’t leave for long without the swamp witch catching on. Still, she was far from being level headed about people leaving her presence… —>

Seinallia went ahead and walked up stairs again, this time taking a left instead of a right, which leads her to the Magic Atelier. She folded the letter back and left it downstairs, for she thinks that'll be valuable to check later once she leaves the house. ... Once she leaves?|

-The letter itself seemed like a fairly straightforward newsletter. Detailing goings on and happenings in Walpurgis that seemed relatively unimportant. What was interesting however, were the mention of a witch council of some kind stationed in Walpurgis. —>

hobby. Upon leaving the bedroom, she didn't leave empty handed. She took the letter with that strange group name and took it downstairs, sat on the very left of the couch next to the two questionably looking voodoo dolls and started reading|

“Reploids? No, they were called something else… Ahh, all of these names in this worlds are confusing, I’ll just stick with reploids or whatever.” -She had seen too many robots with different names to properly remember the right terms on a whim. Plus she was far from someone who cared. —>

He saw no need to address them when he could simply focus on the conversation at hand. “Reploids,” he corrected. “That’s what we’re called.”

-The swamp witches bedroom was surpassingly standard… A nice large bed next to a small wardrobe of clothes. Not much at a first glance that seemed interesting or even of worth. Though looking a bit more intensely at the room revealed a few interesting tidbits about her. —>

vivi Did I make a spelling mistake? Yeah. Am I too lazy to fix it? Also yeah

-Anywhere was possible really! Well… anywhere in the swamp at least. No doubt if she decided to head out of the swamp she’d experience the hate and ire the swamp witch received on the regular. That and she’d learn why Metallia rarely left her swamp without a green crystal. —>

What to do now?With utter freedom of the entire location, she has to explore this life a little more. Where to start?|

-The voice change didn’t do much to deter the swamp witch, though it did catch her off guard somewhat.- “Hehehehe~ There’s a difference between you, and everyone else. You see, I actually give enough of a damn about other witches and the like to reveal such things to them. —>
