Day 7, evening.

[shibuya_s]

After having some dinner and retiring to his room, Shouri decided to practice his maryoku skills. He knew he was getting better but he also knew he needed more practice. He poured some water into a bowl and concentrated. The water swirled than rose into the air, forming into more solid shapes as it coiled around

"You'd best keep inside." Julia had one hand on the wall for support, but didn't appear much rattled by the tremors racing down the hall. "Though the safest place might be outside. I don't know if I want to be here if the whole thing comes down."

"Miss.. Julia. Do you know what's going on?" He asked, sounding concerned.

"It feels as though someone has lost control of their maryoku. Very dangerous." She smiled innocently and gently pushed him back into his room. She could feel his magic lingering just beyond the doorway. "One should be very careful with their abilities, especially when they are first learning them. Don't you agree?"

He looked guilty for a minute. "Do you think I...?"

"Just because I can't see it with my eyes, doesn't mean I can't see it. Go on, show me."

"All right...," he looked at her face for a moment before doing as he had before, concentrating on the water in the bowl, which began to swirl. It did little else as he seemed to now have trouble concentrating.

"Hmm...Not very impressive." She held a hand out over the bowl with a frown. The magic was slipping all over the place. "Are your eyes closed?"

[shibuya_s]

"I didn't close them this time... It was working better before," he didn't want to admit he'd lost his focus and concentration now.
