[center][fancypost=background: transparent; font-size: 10px; width: 500px; margin-top: -6px;][align=justify]Oh? It was interesting to see Mie be the first to offer things to do. Not that she pegged him as rude, but Hana expected something more akin to Aleksei's reaction for both brothers. Evidently, she did not know the twins well enough. A soft chuckle fell from Hana as she approached, overhearing Wisteria's joking chastisement of the disgruntled apprentice The Oriental mixbreed moved to take a seat next the unoccupied side of Aleksei, lifting an ivory paw to conceal the smirk spread wide across her muzzle. "Depends on what you're up for, I guess." Hana spoke in a more vague manner than Wisteria and Mieczyslaw, placing her paw down as an eyebrow quirked curiously at Peanut. Wisteria's comments about art caused Hana to crack a half-smile, terracotta gaze sliding toward the Medic. Pierce also seemed to be enamoured by arts; she had her doubts the unfamiliar cream tabby would be ask keen to paint or build something, but Hana wasn't about to voice her doubts. Maybe, just maybe, she'd be taken by surprise when he starts weaving a wicker basket together. Without many suggestions of her own to tack on, Hana offered the next best thing she could think of. "I could take you flying sometime, if you want?" Not exactly something Peanut could do on his own, but hey, it'd fix his boredom in an instant depending on how brave he was willing to be.

yES i will do that soon, pax B)

maybe some kids are having a snowball fight and he gets hit?
his guard slips and hurts himself so ala has to help him?

on a totally unrelated note i mispelled "deciding" as "decidong" and i think it's safe to say i'm an eight year old on the inside

i was about to say jersey/olive
but then i realized that's incest
but then i remembered mie/aleksei

[center][fancypost=background: transparent; font-size: 10px; width: 500px; margin-top: -6px;][align=justify]Honestly, Hana didn't have much of an interest in poetry- or English literature in general. It wasn't so much that she had a hard time reading it- no, learning to read English had been much easier than learning to speak it coherently- but rather that Hana had little appreciation for writing. Yet when Ivylee inquired for BlizzardClanners to come hear her work, the chocolate and white longhair had been passing by: and it'd be rude to continue walking past, wouldn't it? Hana was slow to approach after Germanicus, terracotta eyes fixed curiously on Ivylee as she moved to take a seat by herself behind the duo already present. Sure, literature wasn't her cup of tea, but Hana was still curious regarding what the RiverClan Leader had to offer. "How often do you write?" The Oriental mixbreed asked, ears flicking forward to turn her attention toward Ivylee.

hana is a small chocolate and white oriental longhair mix with brown eyes and four pink triangles divided up on her cheeks :0 she has a visual ref in the spoiler below (although the triangles are more like her avatar) and a more accurate description in her bio, which is linked above <33

she's p cheeky so she'd either be on her own winking/holding up a peace sign or trying to pester someone like pierce, alastor, or p much anyone actually cx

[center][fancypost=background: transparent; font-size: 10px; width: 500px; margin-top: -6px;][align=justify]Woah, Sweetphelia wasn't kidding when she said there was a lot to discuss. Hana had a hard time keeping up with the news, frankly: her terracotta eyes occasionally flicked off of the pointed Leader to gauge the reactions of her Clanmates, her tall ears fell to her head at the mentioning of fencing off certain sections of the islands. Hana had... never really considered the fact that others might have fallen off of them. Hell, dying from falling wasn't even something she'd ever considered before: at a certain height, there was also Miso to save her, and below that, she'd more than likely be able to land on her paws just fine. But then there were those that went past accidents, that moved into the territory of attempting to take their own lives. Hana swallowed thickly at the notion. Sweet was quick to move on, however, and the bicoloured feline found herself grateful for such. All of the allied events listed were considerably more lighthearted. Hana offered a light smile in response, shuffling her paws as she gave a brief thought to whether or not she'd attend some of the events.

When names began to be listed off, Hana was quick to tune back in. This was the most exciting part about meetings for most, wasn't it? Hana could understand why, now that she'd sat through a handful of them. The anticipation of whether or not your own name or the name of a friend would be mentioned. Alastor's name caused her soft half-smile to grow, quickly turning her gaze toward the panther alongside her as she moved to quickly lean her weight against him excitedly before quickly giving him space once more, knowing he wouldn't be fond of the touch to begin with. But how could she not be enthused about his name being mentioned? It meant that there was trust! Right? Or at least the start of something! The mentioning of Mie's name almost immediately enraptured her attention, tearing her gaze off of Alastor to seek out the kitsune undoubtedly sitting next to his brother. Sure enough she found the ebony twins next to each other, flashing Mieczyslaw a bright smile. "Congrats!" Hana decided not specify her congratulations, instead encompassing it to include everyone. Her own name was next, and Hana was admittedly quite shocked: she'd been here three weeks and was already a Paladin. Hana liked to think of herself as something special, but not quite that extraordinary, either. Blinking, her gaze slowly swiveled back to rest on Sweetophelia. "... 감사," the Korean responded breathlessly, eyes wide.

/감사, "gam sa", thanks

[center][fancypost=background: transparent; font-size: 10px; width: 500px; margin-top: -6px;][align=justify]Oh boy, she said she'd do this a long time ago. It had slipped Hana's mind for a while now, only returning as a prevalent forethought when Sweetophelia had accepted her offer to act as an ambassador for the Knights of Eden. She was already going to have to make the flight over there, so why not see if anybody would be interested in joining her- as well as other allied Clans? Actually, no, scratch that: she'd go to the Knights of Eden on her own the first time. Might not be the best first impression if she brought a guest with her the first time. Hana didn't want to fuck up something she'd yet to even start. Hana had managed to throw together twelve rough skeletons of what would eventually become gift baskets, deciding to round up the number of BlizzardClan's allies just in case there really was an instance of a taker for each and every Clan. Hana had her doubts she'd even be able to visit half of BlizzardClan's allies with a guest, but at that point, she'd probably just go alone or pass off the gift baskets to the Ambassadors of the remaining groups. Leaving behind a mess of assorted gifts in uneven piles, the earthen mixbreed slipped out out of her hut as the sun was beginning to crest in the middle of the sky, taking a seat next to her ajar door with an excited grin on her face.

"Hey!" Hana called out, large ears reclining as sets of unfamiliar eyes fell on her. For the briefest of moments, Hana hesitated: the Oriental feline was quick to swallow her discomfort and instead flash a merry grin. "Miso and I are offering dragon rides!" Her companion's dread was so palpable that she nearly felt it herself, from off wherever he was. "We'll be going to visit an ally of your choice, with gifts that I made- unless you'd like something personal included." She hummed, tail flicking excitedly behind her. Hana wouldn't particularly mind visiting neutrals, either- or even enemies, for that matter, but she figured that much wasn't worth mentioning. If they really wanted to go to some other group, Hana figured they'd ask about it. "It can be a tame ride, oooor we could have some fun with it." Oh, how she wanted the latter. She wanted a daredevil that was willing to go into dives with her, plummeting toward the earth shortly after breaching the cloudline. Hana doubted she'd have many takers on that, but hey, she had her hopes. "Just tell me where you want to go." She'll probably do a crash-course safety lesson in dragon riding before this, just so it wasn't on her if they were to slip off. Not that anything bad would happen to them- her and Miso did freefall trust exercises frequently, they were quite versed in catching falling targets. But it was better not to be held responsible if they decided to whine about it. "And we'll set out as soon as possible!"

/i'll be making a thread of them visiting the group!! if you'd like to have a travel thread we can do that as well, or we can just stick with the arrival thread!! nwn

[center][fancypost=background: transparent; font-size: 10px; width: 500px; margin-top: -6px;][align=justify]Ah, it had already started! Wow, that was fast. Not that there was a lot to understand about the game, in hindsight. But explaining the ins and outs of a game grew to be considerably more challenging when having to do it in a language that was not her native tongue. Casting a sideways glance toward Artemis as the ivory feline took a seat alongside her, Hana offered a warm smile toward the unfamiliar femme. Pleasantries were interrupted when guesses began, however, and Hana was quick to tear her attention away from the small feline next to her to instead focus on the game. Her eyebrows knitted together in thought as Nathaniel confirmed it wasn't edible, russet eyes flicking toward Fadingmoon as she asked if it was wearable. While it wasn't nessecarily the best idea, Hana decided to go ahead and ask a question before waiting for a reply. "Can it be found in a forest?" Hopefully the answer to Fadingmoon's question was 'no', otherwise she just made a fool out of herself, hadn't she?

[center][fancypost=background: transparent; font-size: 10px; width: 500px; margin-top: -6px;][align=justify]Peanut, he had introduced himself as? He was attracting quite the flock. Hana's eyes roamed briefly off the cream tabby to observe those that followed suit after herself, offering a particularly warm smile toward the most familiar of the bunch- Fadingmoon- before quickly returning her attention toward Peanut. His comment about lack of wings provoked a dramatic roll of her eyes, lifting up a paw to add her faux scene to motion toward her own body. "Well, neither do I." Was it even possible to levitate without control the wind itself? Hana was not entirely sure: it didn't feel like it was worth bringing up, either, so the Oriental longhair skipped the trivial inquiry altogether as she wove her words in between the chatter of her Clanmates. "I mean on M- ah, a dragon." Hana was quick to correct herself, knowing Peanut would not know her companion referred to directly by name. She was already crafting a flight plan for him with others, so there was no harm in inviting Peanut in on the fun: then again, Hana didn't know how daring he was willing to get. His smaller size- well, relatively speaking: he was certainly smaller than Alastor or even Olive- meant he'd have the upper hand on trying anything particularly acrobatic.

"Oh, and I'm Hana, by the way!" Had this been the first time she'd forgotten to introduce herself? Mistakes happened, sure, but it didn't make them any less embarrassing.

[center][fancypost=background: transparent; font-size: 10px; width: 500px; margin-top: -6px;][align=justify]The second Paladin but the fourth face to arrive, Hana made her way quietly into the cabin. She was still rather shocked at her own promotion: most others she could see, and fully supported. But Hana was so new. While certainly not the youngest on the team- Pierce was even younger than her, wasn't he?- she was arguably one of the freshest faces on the Paladin's team. Was Alexa already in BlizzardClan by the time she had joined? Hana was unsure. "안녕," the bicoloured female greeted in her native tongue, offering a smile as she moved to take a seat alongside Pierce, finding comfort in his familiarity.

/안녕, "annyeong", informal hello

Oh. She hadn't really considered the fact that some were afraid of heights. Hana's gaze flicked between those that had quickly gathered, smile spreading across her maw as Giovanni was the first to speak. Her eyebrow quirked upward as her attention turned toward the hybrid, russet eyes lighting up with excitement at his words. "Yes, we could do that!" WindClan, huh? Hana leaned forward excitedly toward Giovanni, offering a bright grin. The Oriental mix lifted a paw up to wave it dismissively at his comment about Miso being able to carry him, a grin on her maw. "Nah, they can hold you just fine." Weight was the least of her concerns with passengers: rather their size. Those larger than a wildcat wouldn't be able to come along, although she doubted that'd be a problem considering that pretty much only pertained to Foreigner. Giovanni would be a breeze compared to things they'd had to haul in the past. "When do you want to go? Morning? Night?" Considering Hana didn't exactly know her way to WindClan, and would once again be relying on Miso's knowledge of the area, she was really hoping he wouldn't want a night flight. It'd be nice if Hana could see where they were flying.

Attention turning toward Olive, Hana gave a passive shrug. "I mean, I can, but don't you want to go somewhere else?" The bicoloured mixbreed didn't just want to be a ride home for Olive, she'd rather take her somewhere more beneficial to BlizzardClan. Granted, the fox was injured and wouldn't be able to make it back to the Rift without assistance for some time, but still... Hana could drop her off afterwards. Her point was to visit less catered allies... hopefully that wouldn't seem too crass.

Sylmae's reaction was rather startling, seeing that she had wings. Then again, why would she want a ride in the first place, when she could take herself there anyways? Gaze flitting slowly between Jerseyboy and Sylmae, the lithe female lifted up a paw to wave it slowly. "Well... Okay then. It's not dangerous," she attempted to persuade, "so if you change your mind, let me know."

hey guys, can i get your two cents on something about hana? :0

[center]

[center][fancypost=background: transparent; font-size: 10px; width: 500px; margin-top: -6px;][align=justify]His slip-up was something Hana hadn't even noticed, rather assuming that she had failed to correctly understand what Aleksei was asking. Korean was her first language, but the English course was unbelievably brutal. The entrance exam had English words that Hana had never ran into after coming to the United States, phrased in a way that put Shakespeare to shame- at least, now that Hana had to dissect his work, it seemed to pale in comparison. The brunette hummed in both amusement and acknowledgement as Aleksei was quick to fill the silence, pulling a hand away to tuck loose hair behind her ear. Aleksei was rather satisfying to listen to, his light accent certainly Eastern but not quite Asian- no, he wasn't struggling to round out his vowels. In comparison, Hana's accent was much more prevalent. Unlike the Russki, however, Hana didn't consciously make an effort to improve her English: she was fluent enough to comfortably host conversations without having her words lost in her accent. Distracted by a failed attempt to identify Aleksei's dialect, Hana nearly missed his questions, blinking as she quickly corrected her wandering gaze and offered a shallow smile. Gaming, right. She'd have plenty of time to ask about where he was from as well as fawn over her own home country when she convinced him to sign up. Assuming he'd actually sign up in the first place: but with the interest Aleksei had, Hana doubted he'd be difficult to convince.

"Ah, right," Hana answered inattentively, giving a dismissive wave of her free hand before entwining her fingers together once more. This time Hana kept her posture more upright, lips pressing together into a thin line as she considered answers. It wasn't that his questions were particularly difficult for her, but rather that Hana was having a hard time figuring out how to tailor her response to appeal to Aleksei. He didn't seem like the type to expect a lot of social gatherings, but beyond that, he was incredibly difficult to gauge. "I mean, of course we meet." What sort of club would they be otherwise? Even outside of discussing strategies and schedules, it was nice to get to know one's teammates before being expected to synchronize with them in-game. Almost anyone that had any sort of experience with competitive gaming knew the massive headache of having to handle teammates that did not get along: knowing that before any sort of serious game was nice. "We don't really make events ourselves, but we participate in plenty. I know our League teams participate in Starleague and AVGL." Hana paused, eyebrows furrowing in thought before she continued. She couldn't exactly recall what tournaments the Smash teams were in, seeing that she didn't follow them nearly as closely. "We did a charity stream not too long ago for Extra Life in collaboration with some other collegiate teams- it was more successful than we thought it would be." Hana wasn't entirely sure whether or not she was qualified to share numbers- were they even of public knowledge?- so she decided to skip the details entirely. "We scrim with other collegiate teams, as well as freelance teams, once or twice a week." Not everybody's schedule was as flexible as hers: being a cinematography major wasn't as demanding as she was expecting. Others could hardly find the time to breathe between courses. "We have internal scrims every now and then, as well, to find weaknesses." Saying they did it to find the weak link was a bit harsh, but that was essentially what the practice was for. Knowing who needed to improve on what was essential, especially with their flex players.

Aleksei's smirk was encouraging, her own lips curling into a coy smile as her gaze slid off of the Junior to briefly investigate the older man stationed next to her. He was absorbed in a conversation initiated by a new student that approached, having long since tuned Hana out. Her attention turned back toward Aleksei, raising an eyebrow with faux disdain at his remark. Hana's weight shifted forward as she leaned further onto the table, index fingers unraveling to rest her head on the tip of her fingers. "Don't assume we don't know how to have fun," Hana warned in a light tone, giving a quick raise of her eyebrows. "Although, our definitions of 'fun' might vary."

SCREAMS I FINALLY REPLIED TO THE AU THREAD
today i learned suggestive hana is a lot of fun to type cx
late edit: apparently avgl doesn't have a league competition WOOPS

anyWAY as i have it right now hana's life seems pretty,,, flawless, and i don't like that? like there's no way she'd be so experienced in battle with miso without prior practice, and i've tossed around the idea that a war was what initially convinced her to leave home, but at the same time she shows like? no signs of sadness or regret?? and i feel like even if hana is very good at hiding her angst (which she will be when i get around to ruining her life) i've already written her as so positive? idk i'm thinking of making her the sort of person where conflict and struggle make her appreciate life & those around her more rather than making her sad and slowing her down, but i'm afraid that's not realistic?

not sure if i got the point across rip, the food is ready and i clock in at 12 xD

Awesome, thanks guys!! I'll probably make a character study when I get home and then start a oneshot tomorrow, since I have to leave again at 6 xp

My work has been painfully slow today xD I've pretty much been reading every thread I haven't checked out now cx hopefully you'll get to leave early though, Frost!!
