<div style="text-align: center">(Sailor Moon's post)<br/>​</div>Estelle studied the blonde woman curiously, discreetly. She was half expecting a response to what was said, but there was nothing. Not a single peep, as the woman continued to study the Loh'skaran. Others in the tour group were intrigued by what Estelle had said, and they gathered closer, firing off questions about the demons and Loh'skaran. Estelle answered as many as she could, and when she got a small break, glanced up to see a head of blonde hair moving through the crowd, until it vanished completely behind a corner.<br/><br/><i>Strange. </i>Estelle thought to herself, as she locked the doors up behind her. When she stepped outside it was night time. Tourist parking was empty, and the lanterns lining the walkways were lit. For whatever reason, the blonde woman from earlier was still on Estelle's mind. The way the woman looked at the sword, almost like she had been sizing it up. Estelle knew it was ridiculous, but something about the encounter made her uneasy.<i>You need sleep girlfriend. </i>She shook her head lightly, following the pathway down into a heavily forested area, where a small guest house stood out. Her feet were tired and classes started tomorrow. Estelle knew that if she didn't get to bed soon then she'd regret it, so she walked past the main house, where the silhouettes of her family members bustling around in the kitchen could be seen through the window.<br/><br/>Estelle frowned softly and walked past it and to the small house. She had been staying there since she graduated. It wasn't anything fancy, but it was a cozy little loft space with a full kitchen and bath. Anything else she needed could be found in the main house, but this way she still had some privacy. A soft rattling could be hard as Estelle approached the door, and she pulled the sliding door open. A black blur shot out past the doorway, causing some nearby birds to scatter. There was a loud meow, and Estelle looked over her shoulder as she stepped up into the house.<br/><br/>"Fufu, what are you doing?" Estelle called, squinting into the dimly lit, grassy area. The cat only laid there, his paws holding a feathery mess as he gnawed. She rolled her eyes and walked inside, leaving the door open just a crack.<br/><br/>@-->---><br/><br/>Estelle walked outside late in the afternoon, her book bag hanging loosely off of one shoulder and her keys held in her free hand. The sun was hidden behind a thick sheet of grey, and the leaves were rustling loudly as the wind blew through them. Estelle looked up at the sky, her hand planted firmly on top of her head to keep her hair from blowing all over. She prayed that there was no rain in the forecast, and just as Estelle thought that a loud crack seemed to shake the earth.<i>Seriously? </i>Estelle picked up the pace into a light jog, until she reached the front gates and slowed down to a brisk walk. She crossed the street and followed the side walk for about half an hour before merging with a group of people around her age. All of them headed towards the university up the street. Her first class was starting in just a few minutes, so she rushed up the stone steps and went inside.<br/><br/>Estelle's first class went by quickly, it was only a forty minute math class, thankfully. Next, was Ancient History. Her favorite subject, and also the easiest subject for her. Her parents had required she take some courses that would help her priestess work, and Ancient History was a decent compromise. She glanced around the halls, a smile lifting her lips when she found the correct room. Estelle walked ahead slowly, when she saw a familiar face heading in her direction. It was the tall blonde from the shrine, which wasn't uncommon, since everyone visited the Ando Temple. That same odd feeling came over her as she looked at the woman, though she didn't look away. She wanted to see what class she had, if it was in the same hall. Estelle wasn't at all surprised to find the other woman had gone into her class, considering her curiosity about the Loh'skaran. She walked ahead and went into the room, finding there were only a few seats open.<br/><br/>Estelle rolled her eyes and inhaled deeply, heading up the steps and taking the seat beside the blonde. As she began to unpack her things, she peeked at the girl from the corner of her eye. It felt more awkward not to say anything, so Estelle looked over and smiled. "Hey! H-haven't I seen you somewhere?" She asked. "You were apart of my tour group, right?"
