[i]Pan ran around the colosseum that held all of the fights going on. Her face had her signature smile on it as she hopped, skipped, and laughed. While all of this was going on you noticed Artemis running with her hair down, wearing a white duster, black tank top, and dark jeans. Artemis seemed to be chasing Pan.[/i]
[b]Artemis:[/b] "Pan, slow down!"
[b]Pan:[/b] "You can't catch me!"
[spoiler]OPEN![/spoiler]

[i]Pan hugged Marcia tightly.[/i] "Here I am! If I hug you then you'll always know where I am!"
-
[i]Marcia only remained silent as Pan hugged her, although after a moment, she quietly laughed. She liked Pan already, from the sounds of it.[/i] [u]"Y'know, you're not too bad...We should hang out more, if you don't mind me being...well, blind."[/u]
-
[i]Pan starts to hop in place while still hugging Marcia. They're getting a good foot of air with each hop.[/i] "I don't mind if you're blind! I already have one blind friend and she's awesome!"
-
[i]For a long time, Marcia had gone through life without laughing in joy.[/i] [i]Now, she had found a reason to be laughing in joy. She had found quite a good friend - hell, someone that actually shared the same interests as her and was nice to her - and...well, Marcia was lonely at times. She had begun to join Pan in the hopping, chuckling and snickering to herself.[/i]
-
[i]Pan got happier knowing Marcia was happy and laughed with an accidental snort in there.[/i] "We're going to be great friends, Marcia! I can tell!"
-
[u]"I can too, Pan. I can too!"[/u] [i]It felt better to the young mage that she had someone to call a friend - hell, a great friend. She honestly didn't even care if people were watching at this point.[/i]
-
[i]Pan ends the hug and puts her hands on Marcia's shoulders.[/i] "Whatcha wanna do as our first activity as friends?!"
-
[u]"W-Well, we can always get something to eat! If you want to, of course!"[/u] [i]Marcia didn't mind too much about what they would do together; she just wanted to hang out with Pan more.[/i]
-
[i]Pan gasps and starts to push Marcia in a seemingly random direction.[/i] "Want to go get some pizza? Maybe a meatball parm too...and cheese fries....Sorry, I eat more than the norm."
-
[u]"Sure! Okay!"[/u] [i]Marcia immediately assumed that Pan was pushing her towards...wherever they were going to eat. She didn't care too much.[/i]
-
[i]The smell of grease tells you that you've arrived.[/i] "We're here!" [i]Pan helps Marcia sit down in a chair. They're sitting outside of a restruant.[/i]
-
[i]Marcia only leaned back against the chair, as she couldn't relatively see anything at the moment. She was relying on Pan for everything, really. Something she hated to do.[/i]
-
"Luckily the menus here have braille on them." [i]Pan hands Marcia a menu.[/i] "Also, I can pay for the meal."
-
[u]"Y-You can? Sure? I mean, I can pay too."[/u] [i]Marcia felt the menu, before silently deciding on a simple Dr. Pepper and three slices of pepperoni pizza, alongside a side of breadsticks. Hopefully, she could afford that herself. [/i]
-
[i]Pan chuckles.[/i] "Really, let me pay." [i]A waiter comes by.[/i] [b]Waiter:[/b] "May I take your order?" [b]Pan:[/b] "How about two large pizzas, some garlic knots, cheese fries, and a DP?" [i]The waiter looked at Pan, surprised by the large order. He then turns to Marcia.[/i] [b]Waiter:[/b] "And for you, Miss?"
-
[u]"Oh, um...three slices of pepperoni pizza, side of breadsticks, and...a Dr. Pepper. Please."[/u] [i]Marcia suddenly spat out those words in a rush, as if she thought she was taking too long to speak. Sorta ironic.[/i]
-
[i]The waiter walked away. Pan nervously laughed.[/i] "Yeah, I eat a lot."
-
[u]"Oh, you're fine. I haven't had a big meal in a while though."[/u] [i]Marcia chuckled calmly, her face pointed towards Pan as if she was waiting for her to speak.[/i]
-
[i]Pan smiles at Marcia's acceptance.[/i] "Yeah, I have this chaos energy stuff consuming me and it makes me almost always hungry. The chaos stuff is fun and all, but almost always having the feeling of extreme hunger isn't fun."
-
[u]"Oh? That's interesting. All I have is energy magic pulled from the depths of the arcane, torn from an alternate dimension and utilized during combat to utterly eradicate and incinerate enemies. It's fun."[/u] [i]...Marcia said that rather calmly.[/i]
-
Edited by Stitch: 11/20/2016 2:38:29 AM"That's pretty cool. Technically my friend, Bedlam, is the one who pulls the chaos energy out of the...I don't know what to call it. I'm simply manipulating the energy he gives me. As far as I know it's limitless, but each time I use it the chaos consumes my body and mind a little bit more. Oh! I almost forgot to mention that its properties are completely different than magic because of it being an energy and because of such it's immune to the anti-magic stuff that affects mages like you." [i]Pan says this rather fast.[/i]
-
[u]"Anti-magic..."[/u] [i]At the mere mention of it, Marcia slightly shuddered, her face becoming a dreadful pale. She looked worried..[/i]
-
[i]Pan looks worried at the sight of Marcia.[/i] "Are you okay? Does anti-magic bring up bad memories?"
-
Edited by Orn: 11/20/2016 4:32:38 AM[u]"No, not at all. Just...[/u] [u]The concept of anti-magic is my worst nightmare come true. Upon usage, it would slowly drain away the very thing that holds me together: mana. If my mana runs out, I'll...I'll literally fall apart.."[/u]

"Strange how without your magic you die and with my magic I die."
