She stared between the twins, slightly in awe how two siblings could be so... patient with one another. In the Gradimir household, a mistake meant you would be ridiculed of it for the foreseeable future, and never made to forget such a moment. "Gosh, I wish I had your trust in Owen."...

Owen glanced between the two, a half smile of confusion and coherency at war. "Oh, well uh..." "Oh..." Bliss exclaimed, her face showing her sudden realisation. "Melody Delight, otherwise known as the—" "—Happy potion, or one of." Owen finished, clearing his throat pushing forward the trays to...

Seated in the dining hall, Bliss had been feigning her enthusiasm as her classmate was explaining his choices of ingredients. A talent baker, particularly with pastries, Owen had decided to test potion filled custards and berry compote and make them into tarts. She had already braved the...

Surprised by the sudden appearance, Bliss fumbled a step. She walked back into Calixtus, who had taken a step closer to her the moment the Dreadlord had begun chatting to them. In the process, Bliss's heel sank over Calixtux's leather shoe. "Oh!" She laughed, righting herself. "Well, I wish I...

Bliss rolled her eyes but shook the hand of Kian Heller. "Bliss Gradimir. Fourth year student at the College. This sour wart of a being is Calixtus Blodwyn, a first year. Are you a Dreadlord by chance?" She asked. The fact Calixtus took a step towards her did not go unnoticed. He liked to...

Bliss sighed, adamant on studying the art and not looking to him. He followed, of course, because he truly had intentions to bother her. "I like fading into the wallpaper." She argued, eyes looking to each canvas hung up on a wall. Anirian, Elbion, Alliran, they dominated the displayed works...

She wanted to hit him with a stinging hex, for being so unbearably obnoxious. Every word he spoke, it was done with absolute privilege and confidence, Bliss wanted to slip away and ignore him. "Are you really thick or do you only think about your own family's work and industry? Is it so...

"I wouldn't say such a thing about people with actual personality." She quipped, having taken his offered arm with an awkward hold. Not wanting to be so near to him, but alas, his nobility and upbringing was a practice she was not used to. Instead of making a fuss about it, Bliss chose to...

It was truly such a feat that one person could cause her so much ire than the presence of Calixtus Blodwyn. Of course, unbeknownst to anyone but herself, Calixtus, and Maester Blodwyn, she gave some time every week too help Calixtus work on his spellcrafting. To endure him every week out of...

It may only occur to her now that Calixtus had a certain way about him that even Bliss could not ignore, but she did so. Adamant to not blush, a faint pink settled in her cheeks without her consent. All her focus went to his flickering shield, and Bliss pressed harder against it. "There is...

"Mm... those that cannot achieve the smoothness of wielding would try to dress anyone down that can achieve it. What you think is polished, I see as control and flow." Bliss lowered her shields, taking the steps to close the distance. Her hand went to press against his manifested shield, and...

In celebration of two cities sharing in their love of art and history, the bi-annual gala was to be hosted in Elbion. An opportunity for those studying at the College to attend and extend introductions to those that hail from the Anirian territories. Although a small retinue of Anirians are in...

"Good." She frowned. "Go on then. Bring up a shield. However big you can manage, and hold it." She could extend her wards, but she did not just yet. Bliss did not wish to show all her prowess to him just yet. She had met an ex Dreadlord once, one that served before their revolution, and the...

Close to the Blodwyns? Bliss snorted. "You mean friends of your family? The Gradimirs already have relations with another House." She was unsure why she needed to say that, to put distance from herself and him. The comment of how he could read her so easily didn't sit well with her, and even...

She blinked, staring at him as he began his appraisal of her. It was there in his eyes, the way he eyed her up as if she were the one asking for further lessons. Bliss crossed her arms, frowning at him. "You may be a Blodwyn, but if you aren't here to take your Maester brother's help in...
