@Prinny-Jt (Sapphire)

(Tadashi, human form)

"The weekend is the best", Tadashi thought to himself, "and it's not even raining today so my drawings will be ok!"

Tadashi was usually a happy person but not quite this excited. He normally tried to be calmer but it had been rainy for the past week and it had been making him a little upset. The rain however had left his mind completely because today was going great. He had spent the morning napping in the sunlight that streamed into his room and then he had taken his favorite pencils down to draw a little outside.

Tadashi stood next to a little wall that came up to about half his height. He was dressed rather plainly, as he normally chose to be, in an off-white button down shirt with long sleeves and loose-fit jeans. His shoes were a dull grey. The most unusual part of his clothing was that he wore a pair of light grey gloves that covered his hands and wrists completely. Those that had seen him around school might have taken notice that he never really seemed to take them off, or at least that anyone had seen.

On top of the wall itself were two very strange figures drawn in the black lines of a pencil. Only these drawings seemed to be alive and dancing about. On one side was what looked like a snake with big buck teeth, a bow tie and about 20 legs. On the other side of Tadashi was what appeared to be a horse except its legs were drawn as if they were spring shaped between the hooves and the joint where they met the rest of the body. The boy was trying to decide on what to draw next and was chewing the end of his pencil, deep in thought.

Sapphire walked along, playing a tune on her banjo. Today had been the first sunny day for like a week. Although Saffy didn't mind rain. But this weather meant that she could play her instruments out and about instead of only at home.

She got distracted though as she looked to a wall fence thing. There were a bunch of weird creatures on it. Then there was a kid with grey gloves. He must be the culprit of the horse and centipede. She jumped over the wall, landing next to the strange boy. "Hey, what's up?!"

Tadashi thought he heard the sound of music nearby but he just shrugged. It was a nice day so people being outside and enjoying it was pretty normal. It was pretty nice though and he found it was distracting him from the fact that he had blanked on what to draw next. The two drawings he had already completed continued meandering around. They were nearly two-dimensional, being only about 1" thick but they walked on top of the wall without issue.

Tadashi was surprised by Sapphire suddenly jumping over the wall and he dropped the pencil as he flinched. He didn't seem too bothered by it however because he just kind of chuckled to himself and turned to address the girl. "Oh! Um, hi? I'm just enjoying the day and drawing things. Its so nice the rain finally stopped, huh?" He then spotted the banjo she was carrying, "That was you playing just a bit ago? It sounded really good."

Sapphire giggled at his surprised jump. She leaned against the wall, grinning widely. "Yeah, it is a nice day. So, is that a magic notebook then or can you make magic art things?" She strummed a few more notes. It wasn't anything coherent, just to give her something to do.

"And yeah, that was me. My name's Sapphire. I am half genie and living with werewolves. I play all the instruments, though I only have a piano and this banjo with me." Well, there was her introduction. Covered the basics. At least for what he needed to know for now. The rest will come up later when she inevitably decides it should. Or until he ask.

Tadashi smiled back at Sapphire, "I can make magic drawings and have them move around." With that the strange springy-legged horse crouched and flung itself towards Sapphire. Unfortunately the unusual movements of the legs caused it to go off course and it missed by quite a bit.

The boy looked looked a little embarrassed at the failed jump but was still smiling, "Um, I guess those legs are a bit harder to use than I thought." He turned his attention back to Sapphire as she introduced herself and then he bowed, "Tadashi Yoshimori, nice to meet you Sapphire. I'm a Bakeneko so i'm also a cat."

An involuntary shudder went down his spine. Wolves, great. No, wait the ones I met here haven't been so bad. Besides, i'm not just a cat anymore.

"Would you mind playing something for me? I'll...um... draw you something? After I find my pencil of course." He then started awkwardly looking around for the pencil he dropped.

Sapphire watched the horse flop around, giggling. It was amusing, but the who claims to be Tadashi didn't. But more importantly, he was a cat. Except for the fact that he wasn't a cat. He was a human.

"Oh, you must be a shifter then as a baking Neko. That's pretty cool." She picked up his pencil, holding it up to him. "I'm a shifter as well, cause of my genie heritage. And sure, draw something cool."

Well I guess I should name that one the "horse off course."

Tadashi looked confused for just a second before he started laughing, "I'm definitely a shifter but i'm not really much of a baker. A bakeneko is a cat that has been turned into... how do I explain it? A demon? A spirit? something more than just a cat." He looked over at the pencil he somehow couldn't find himself, "Oh," he smiled sheepishly, "Thank you."

He took a few steps back and started drawing lines in the air between them. It was still in the eary stages but it appeared to be roughly the size of Sapphire but more... blocky. As if the drawing was being done with squares instead of curving lines.

"So what do you shift into? There are a lot of shifters here. I would say more than I expected, but I didn't know there were others before coming here."

Sapphire muttered bakeneko to herself a few times, trying to get the word stuck in her head. Didn't want to mispronounce it again. "Cat spirit...Cool. And you are welcome" Sapphire observed the drawing in the air, figuring it was gonna be a minecraft like figure of someone.

"Oh, me? Well, right now I can shift into a harpy as well as an Arachnoid. You know, spider bottom and my top half is me." She concentrated, and her legs changed into bird legs. Her arms changed into wings, making her a full harpy. "And yeah, lot of magic peoples here so they can do magic stuff like this." She flapped her wings, giggling a bit.

Tadashi was distracted from drawing as Sapphire started to change form. At that point the drawing had indeed taken on a blocky shape similar to a person but the many small pieces looked a lot like ice cubes. "Wow, that's really cool. What's it like to be able to fly?"

He started to walk towards her to get a closer look and then realized he had forgotten to finish his drawing and turned back, embarrassed. "oh, sorry I guess I was a little distracted." He began adding a few more details and the figure started to take shape. He was drawing Sapphire's human form as if she was made of stacked ice cubes. The proportions were a little off, it was a little rough and it was of course in black lines and shading since it was pencil but with a banjo in the figure's hands the intention was clear.

Tadashi chuckled a little to himself, "You said to draw something 'cool' so I tried to draw you made of ice cubes. Not really my best work but it should still be able to walk around."

Sapphire lifted her wing, rubbing the back of her head. It was a bit cute how distracted he was. Endeering even. Although about his question..."That's okay. And flying is pretty great, although I have a little bit of trouble with the landing aspect. Specifically I have a habbit to crash... A lot..."

She walked around the drawing of herself, humming at it. It was very close to her likeness in cube form. Which was really cool to see. He was definitely a better artist then she was when it came to drawing. "I love it. Er, me. Although, my eye is a bit different. The inside of my eye is actually orange where the black is on your eye. The uh.. Pupil! My pupil is black while my iris is blue."
