Clay leaned against the stairs," it's no big deal. I've had a happy life for the most part." he shrugged. The awkward pause was deafening. "so...didn't you wanna see my gunblade?" he asked, filling the silence.

*Jadyn wasn't so sure he believed him but was eager to get away from the subject... for now.* "Yes... If that's all right with you. I know some people are rather protective of their weapons. Myself included."

Clay nodded, handing it over to her carefully, "I am protective of it. Which is why I'm a little cautious about letting you see it. But most people who know what it feels like to care for a weapon so much, take good care of another persons weapon." (I'm putting a description of the gunblade in with Clay's description. I'm also adding that Clay is very pale. )

((I'm going to be drawing Jadyn's blades soon. They're so cool. lol. I love your character, by the way. ;D ))
*Jadyn nodded, cautiously taking the gunblade from him.* " Don't worry. I'm careful with any weapon I get the chance to look at." *Her violet eyes roamed over every inch of the weapon, examining it carefully to remember everything about how it was built. She had read plenty about gunblades before but holding one was so different. Her fingers gently slid over the length of the metal blade in awe.* "How long have you been training with this?"

"I've had it since I was 10, and I would use it a little. I didn't really start training till a year later when I was 11." he watched her stare at it. "so is it what you expected it to be?" (yeah, he's kool. and I really like Jadyn. I love how secretive and stuff she is. EEE! Kinda like Squall, both of em. I love him, still have his little pic from the game.)

((I know. I love Squall too and have a few pictures of him. He and Rinoa are my favorite FF characters. And yeah, I guess they are like him. Only Jadyn's more organized and studious and does whatever she's ordered to do.))
"And so much more... The detail... and the skill it must take to use it properly... and--" *She stopped, realizing just how she sounded... like a little girl with a new toy. She cleared her throat, trying to pull herself together.* "It's definitely an interesting weapon." *She reluctantly handed it back to him.*

Clay let out a low chuckle, and then quickly stopped, shocked, *first time that's happened* he took his gunblade and rested it on his shoulder. " it's not hard to use if you know how. But it does take awhile to learn how to use properly." He hoped he didn't sound like he was bragging, but couldn't help but think that he did.
(I didn't like Rhinoa too much. I didn't like that she was trying to change Squall, and make him be more open. I liked him when he was to himself. I think Rhinoa just wants attention. blah her)

((I like Rinoa because I think she made Squall realize why he does what he does. Besides, Squall needed someone to depend on instead of trying to handle everything by himself. Just a personal opinion.))
*Jadyn nodded slowly.* "I admire you for that skill." *She quickly turned her head away, unable to believe what she had just said. The words had spilt from her lips unbidden. Such strong, direct compliments were never spoken... She brushed her bangs out of her face, a little uncomfortable with herself.*

Clay's eyes widene considerably. Realizing this was an uncomfortable situation, he made to change the subject, "so, what's Balamb school like? what's this general area like?" he asked her.
(I mainly don't like Rhinoa because of how much attention she needs. Not to mention she caused alot of trouble. But yeah, she did a few good things)

*Jadyn was quite grateful for the change in topic and immediately replied.* "There's not much of interest around here. The nearest city is Balamb of course. Most all of the SeeD missions depart from there by boat or train. Besides that it's pretty quiet. We also have this place nearby where students go with their instructors to train from time to time. These caverns are filled with lava and fire and all sorts of monsters. Then there's the Garden. Balamb Garden is an excellent academy I suppose. The only thing really unique about it is the fact that we're the only Garden to use para-magic and Guardian Forces." *She paused a moment, thinking about her own GF. She wondered if Clay had even encountered a GF before.*

Clay arched his eyebrow, giving her a confused look, "a what? guardian forces? um...mind telling me what that is?"

"Not at all. I've read enough about them to the point where I can explain almost everything about them. Guardian Forces are used by students and Balamb SeeDs to aid them in battle. Basically, GF are powerful beings that can be summoned by their owners to cause major damage to their opponents. They are very powerful and their ability to junction magic and abilities makes their owner much more powerful as well. However, there's some evidence that an owner of a Guardian Force can lose certain memories because the GF needs a place to be connected to the mind. But if you'd ever seen a GF in action, you'd know that it's pretty much worth the risk... For most people anyway..." *She thought about how damaged her memory already was without the GF and wondered if she would lose what little bit of her past she had left now that she owned a GF. She shook the thoughts off, looking to Clay to see if he understood or still had questions.*

"hmm. Sounds kool. I'll have to make sure I see one some day....the memory thing doesn't sound too bad either," he accidentally thought out loud. Relising what he did, he coughed and changed the subject again. "umm...so, what kind of magic do you have? I saw Blizzard, but what else do you use?"

*Jadyn decided not to question his comment at the moment although she was a little curious.* "I use Blizzard, Blizzara, and I was even lucky enough to draw Blizzaga but I'm saving that. I enjoy ice magic. I also use Cura, Silence, Scan, and Protect. I also have Death stocked but... I'm hesitant to use it until I have no other options." *She realized just how much she was talking today and lowered her gaze, deciding to let him talk for a while.* "What spells do you enjoy most or do you not use magic at all?"

Clay shook his head, "we didn't really use magic at Galbadia. It was mainly weapons, there were a few that used magic, but I wan't one of them. I wanted to, but it involved working with other people, so yeah. I didn't sign up to learn it." he shrugged slightly.
