Claudia took another sip of her tea as she waited for his answer. "I didn't think you were, but I had to make sure, you know? Some people are really uppity about that sort of thing. It's kind of weird. Also, I didn't want to offend you if you weren't a boy after all."

Her bare face felt the tortoise's warmth first, then her legs since she was only wearing skinny jeans. The sudden, pleasant change in heat made her shiver. "I don't live there, no. I have an apartment here in town," she said as she flexed her warming fingers on her cup. If she'd worn any thicker of gloves, she's sure the heat wouldn't have reached them like it did wearing knitted gloves. "Living inside of the school was. . .also kind of weird. I didn't want it to be my entire life--and I'm not going to be a student forever."

"Hm havent anyone like that before but its whatever to me. And oh cool you live in the town somewhere I kinda live everywhere haha, where do ya live?" jophiel asked as he got some of the hot spring water and poured it on the tortoise's head which felt nice to it. He also thought about having a home to truly stay in but the woods where enough for him, especially since hes lived in a forest for most of his life before coming to the island, and having the spirits around help him to boot.

"Down in the residential area of the city. I don't think there are many other people living in my apartment complex besides me and some old lady on the first floor. She really hates my music." That lady could get mad at anything. Claudia sipped the tea again, then settled into spinning the cup round in her hands.

"It's. . .not too easy to find either, I don't think. I got lost several times and had to sleep on a park bench for the first few nights. Not to mention, no one else can find it either! Sometimes I think it's cursed. A ghost apartment complex. Invisible, like me. Where do you live?"

Jophiel chuckled at that, an invisible apartment that the invisible girl can't find, there's some irony in that somewhere.

"Its like I said, I live everywhere. I make a bed in the trees or the bushes, still i guess in that sense you could say I just live in the woods here. Hmmm I might actually make my own little hut in there soon." Jophiel would be spending a long time here to learn in the academy so it wouldn't be a bad idea.

"Could be fun to make, and you could visit me anytime you want, or if you need a place to sleep at least. Can't have a friend sleeping out in the cold." jophiel smiling at Claudia, to which it would be nice to have some company around if jophiel made a home in the woods somewhere. Hopefully Claudia wouldn't mind the spirits that hang around jophiel, he doesn't think it'll matter since most spirits that are attracted to him are kind of benevolent.

Claudia wrinkled her nose at how awful that sounded, then tilted her head to one side--not that he could see any of it, of course, but these reactions were simply nature to her. The very thought of sleeping out in the cold made her arms wrap around herself. "It's the middle of winter, Jophiel. How haven't you frozen to death or something? What about all the bugs and heat in summer? Why don't you live in the dorms or rent an apartment in the city?"

Man, the few people walking by probably thought Jophiel was totally crazy, talking to nothing. Then again, this was Manta Carlos. This was probably a very common occurrence and way more normal than it was abnormal.

Jophiel laughed at her concern but it is understandable, most poeple would be in an apartment or such.

"Aside from not having any money what so ever, I like the outdoors. I make a small shelter with a camp fire in the winter, hang out in the caves of the beach during the summer, and just chill in trees for the other times. I mean of course sometimes I just stay inside the school, meeting new people and all." jophiel says with a thumbs up "Plus I have the spirits around to help me when needed."

Claudia opened her mouth to suggest that Jophiel could get a job to pay rent, but she wasn't about to force the guy to live like she did. If he liked the outdoors, then he liked the outdoors; that was none of her business, and it'd be rude to tell him what to do just because she couldn't fathom the idea of not living somewhere nice and warm with good WiFi.

"Well, I guess if it works for you and you're happy with it, then it's all good. If you ever get cold, though, I know a good place that sells blankets on discount." She drank the last of her tea and debated what to do with the empty cup. Should she hand it back to him again? Set it down somewhere?

"Wait, so, you can like. . .see spirits? I mean, I know you can talk to them, but it must be pretty freaky to look around and see a bunch of dead people all the time. What do they even look like?"

A place that had discount on blankets sound real good to jophiel, even tho hes able to transform spirits into things that help with his lifestyle they are but temporary forms that don't last an entire night to keep him warm. However that's why he sneaks his way into building and such.

"if love to find this place one day, the store with blankets. As to what spirits are like well...not all spirits are dead people, some are animals and some are just these beings of energy that are formless like mini auroras flying around. Most if not all of those and animal spirits are harmless, but the spirits of people can be either one. Doesn't freak me out though, I've living with spirits of all kinds my entire life." but even jophiel had to admit spirits that are people can be a hassle, always wanting him to do something for them like revenge or talk to strangers he doesn't know.

"That sounds...really weird. I hope there's no mini aurora thing around me right now--" she paused to wave her arms around her in an attempt to shoo rogue ghosts away from her. No creeps allowed! Hold on a moment...she was a creep! Shoot, she wasn't allowed.

"Do they ever ask you to do stuff for them? I've watched a couple of those movies where some ghost like, floats up to some dude who can see them and asks him to go talk to their grandma or whatever and tell them goodbye since they didn't get to. Do they do that sort of stuff, asking you to help them move on?"

Claudia ended up holding the cup out to him anyways, unsure of what to do with it otherwise. "Thanks for the tea, by the way. Cinnamon apple is really good."

Jophiel takes the cup and chuckled to see her thinking she could wipe away the spirits around her, to which she couldn't of course.

"Ill say this much spirits and ghosts work a bit differently though they are the same...species for a lack of better words. Spirits are free roaming like animals and the wind, they are everywhere and sometimes in very specific places for certain ones." he puts the cup to the side on the hot springs tortoise, "But ghost are tied down to the area they haunt, can't move around much unless they want to disappear. The only way around that rule is to possess an item that's close to their heart or attach to a person they knew." jophiel himself has encountered and been a victim of this only a handful of times since he didn't get out much from his original forest home.

"And yeah ill get the occasional ghost that wants me to say goodbye to loved ones or avenge them in someway. Depending on the ghost do I ever participate, I mean sometimes I feel like I need to help them...I've always wondered if that what my creator made me for." jophiel pondered a little about that but he's never found the reason why he was create or why his creator merlin had to leave him.
