The morning was met with slight groaning as the curtains have been pulled away due to the light of the sun, the fire had gone away, the crystals and censors have gone off and the girl in question had spent the night trying to get any form of sleep. Only to have spent the entire night, crying her eyes out. She got up, Nierion had gotten into the room with a note in his mouth. The RA of The Tree Tower (turns out to be the entirety of the clan of gargoyles), had given her this one night as a freebe as they can relate really well with what she is experiencing, as they have experienced it one way or another. But she had to be in bed at a certain time. Unless it was certain projects or assignments that called for staying up far past bedtime and remain up until deep into the night. She had taken the note and folded it in one hand, it turns into ash on it's own. Going into her file that she had gotten the note and understood what it had meant; soon enough, she had multiple kinds of the curfew of both morning and night in ornate frames all across her dormitory, so...I have to change my midnight routine too, she thought as she goes into the bathroom as she immediately edits her morning routine. She grabs a pink and green basket from underneath the sink and opens it up as if it were a pair of sliders. She goes through it and grabs something that looks like a spider made of vines with burning candy red blossoms all over it and placed it upon her now down hair as all of the curlers and sticks have come out and her radiant red hair is pooling around her, even her braids were undone. The spider immediately gets to work on cleaning her hair and scalp, even restoring any thinning spots upon her scalp. She took her toothbrush, grabbed a different tube of toothpaste, burning gold and deep forest green. Turned it on and began to violently brushing her teeth, her form changing to that of her newly cleaned uniform, her hair being done into the style that of her uniform. Her nails being painted that of a iridescent red. As she uses the mouthwash, again: different from her normal one, this one being that of liquid sugilite. She clocks back a full cup as her face is being cleaned via magic. Even her eyes are being cleaned and repaired from the amount of crying she has done over the night. It wasn't much.
When she spat out the mouthwash the sugilite turning into something of clouded rose quartz. Her body has been cleaned, perfume and deoderant has already been applied as well as lotion and sunscreen. The scent is that of the forest after a heavy rain storm. Something that makes her think of home while giving the staff at Mix a passive aggressive middle finger of what her stance is. Especially with Militrix. She didn't try to hide the fact that she doesn't like the older woman. In her Class Of Etiquette, where all things etiquette and manners is taught, she is the prime example of passive aggressiveness and showing quiet fury. It doesn't help that her hybrid is not exactly one to throw punches and his side-eye is impeccable. Everyone knew that she didn't care of what they thought of her, she's going to get the best in the class and she doesn't care if she became the bane of the teachers or a pariah amongst the students. It's a known fact about how displeased she is about having to come to the academy. She prepared her bag as the spider-vine worked on her hair.
Once she had finished packing up her bag. She sees her jewelry had changed only slightly. A swirl vine bracelet, beaded bracelet, a pendant pin instead of her tie, compression thigh high socks, and earrings are within her ears. Along with multiple rings upon both of her hands. Her rings change day to day. Depending on the day and what the day would hold. The redness in her eyes have vanished because of the magic as she brushed her teeth.

By the time Militrix had tried to bother her first thing in the morning she has already nearly out of the door. She cracks her neck as she nearly ran into the woman. She remained quiet as she walks to the dining hall (as apparently no student is to make their own breakfast due to an incident the earlier year), Militrix following the duo after she recovered her composure.
They remain completely silent as they walk right to the dining hall. She holds a completely neutral face as she walks towards the dining hall, Militrix is trying to find something, anything to justify keeping her at the academy. But the girl isn't going to play ball. Or even hope to cooperate with the other woman. They'll have to get a royal decree in order to keep her there, but that might as well be treated like a declaration of war by the inhabitants in question. Lilliana's movements is fluid and the woman just noticed that she isn't making any noise, no sound is coming from her person, not from the fabric, not from the jewelry, she can't even hear her footfalls as she is wearing high heeled wedges. She isn't wearing any makeup like most of the girls in her grade. Something that won't get her any sort of popularity with the other girls within the school as if they do not have makeup on, it is because of either 1) it against their religion or 2) allergies on all scales of the severity side.
They know that she is of neither.
Spite? More than likely. Planning something? Most definitely. Are the teachers going to find out what she's planning? Not while she's living and breathing. Will her hybrid be of help to them? When the depths of the underworld is in a state of permanent winter.

Once the duo had gotten to the dining hall, the girl immediately dodges the balls of cloth/skin staining pigment that were aimed at her while Militrix turns them into birds. Very colorful birds. Lilliana has only used magic once and it was with The Dancer Arrows with the winged paladin. And even then, due to who's house she lives in, can be a drop into an ocean. The half-elf knows better to make her angry as she can and will reign nothing but hell upon them; as she can see what they could possibly want as they are not as subtle as they think they are, as they greatly underestimate the girl. The half-elf had warned the only ally he truly has about being wary as she will not give him what he wants...and if she does, expect the worst as it will not be how they think they'll get it. Lilliana spots the winged paladin and the half-elf sitting together and they are completely unaware of the fact that she can indeed hear them as the other teachers are talking amongst themselves, as Militrix scolds the pranksters. The girl didn't wait for Militrix to call upon her as she goes to the balcony...the abandoned balcony. The sprite appears, notepad and quill pen in hand.
Lilliana using her mother tongue to order as per the sprite's joy and pride. She still speaking in her mother tongue ordered another thing just to piss off Militrix and The Head Teacher. "My name is Millian." The sprite says as she vanishes once again, making sure that her food will not hold any of her allergins or worse. In Millian's place is a large chocolate milkshake, with almost shining whipcream, rainbow sprinkles and a strawberry on top. An edible straw is pointed towards her. She brings the straw to her lips and begin to drink. She watches the blossoms bloom around her as the sun hits them.
Once she has gotten her breakfast, Nierion had activated a barrier over them as water is launched at them. Salt water. The hybrid refusing to leave her side, "I'm surprised you didn't change your hair." said an upperclassman. Her left eye glowing aquamarine and the creature responds, "'And I'm surprised that you know how to tie your shoes on your own.'" you can see the slight disapproval on her face...that's not what she has said and he outright censored what she intended to say, the hybrid turns to her with an unapologetic look, "You have language that could curdle milk and freeze blood. I'm not going to have them cry and run to mommy and daddy and get you in trouble," He says to the teen. Who smirks as she continues to eat. I'm going to have to thank Millian for the milkshake. Healer's Chocolate is pretty hard to come by and deliciously high quality at that, Lilliana thought as she continued to drink the milkshake. Nierion is having no problem ripping into any or all that makes any comments within their earshot. Nierion's being the farthest. Lilliana offered a seat to Millian as she cannot speak at the moment. Due to the day prior, she isn't going to speak as her voice has completely shut down. Which the sprite didn't mind and spoke with other means.
This is going to be a long day, Lilliana thought as she finishes her breakfast as she continues to communicate with the sprite. Who mainly had questions of what the kitchen that she serves can do to make her more comfortable and to make sure that she doesn't go in a downwind spiral and have her diet suffer as a result. Which is never a good thing. Especially with a troubled teenager. As soon as breakfast was over. She dodged more projectiles as she walked to class. Nierion remaining in her arms, her backpack again, very different from the other students. Much to the confusion of the other students and the surprise from the other staff. Oh, Fuck. A barrier appears as hooked blades sink into the bubble, spoke too soon. The girl thought as Nierion launches the blades back and they nearly hit the owner, Professor Milock. Those hooks would've ripped a large sea creature into ribbons as if they were made of soft butter or cloth. "Nice try you overgrown shit." Nierion sneered at the bully professor. He clutched his pearls as the hybrid continues to cuss him out and Lilliana does nothing but go to her seat.
She diligently took notes as class begins. Despite the fact that he keeps going off topic and screams at any or all students that even sneeze while he was talking. Her enchanted pen kept taking notes. Nierion does all of the talking for the girl, despite the fact that he wants the girl to speak. She just isn't going to play his games.
No matter what.
The entirety of the academy knows that she isn't mute but her voice is severely compromised. Due to the trauma and anxiety of the sudden and forceful environment change. They don't know what kind of trauma she has experienced but it's clear that while she was with Sofia, she would actually speak more than what they've seen and experienced and without the hybrid being her voice. When the girl had spoken it was literally the day before and her voice had completely given out. And even then, it wasn't much.

As soon as the class was over, she was the first one out the door as Nierion had warned her that the teacher had rigged the stairs. She jumped to the indoor windows and lept from pillars and walls to the next class. Not trusting any of the students, hall monitors and teachers. She was high enough to be over heads but low enough to not get in the way of the airborne.
An interesting day is ahead for Mix Academy.

Magic in the world has always been up for debate. But one thing is certain, it is everywhere and everyone has a way to use it. The Houses and Mix Academy are the places to go when magic users of every Affect go to.

Lilliana Shards, an outsider even among outsiders. Living in The Eden House with The Dualist Witch, Sofia out in the middle of the forest near the capital city. She had been living in The Eden House for a while, but at 16; she had been summoned to Mix Academy for a 'proper' education.

What will happen during her years in this place? Can she (or the school) survive till graduation?
