Seeker: My OTP! Yay! Haven't seen them in a long time.
Owl: Yay! We finally get to meet yours.
Seeker: So I was playing with the style, and this is what happened. I like present tense lately.
Owl: I like it, we'll have to use it more often. So as per usual, we don't own the warriors, if we did we would be writing less fanfiction about it.

The first time Ivypool sees him, he's standing in the shadow of a pillar beside the main doors, head bowed and hands in the pockets of his jeans. He's still as a statue, watching from behind his bangs as the rest of the students rush by in a flood and Ivypool pauses, gaze scanning over him, taking in his dark hair and black clothes.
He lifts his head when she looks at him, as though sensing her stare, and his eyes meet hers, wary amber to curious blue. He holds her gaze for no more than a moment before looking away, shifting his stance against the pillar, but it's enough for her to see the cracks in his cold façade; his discomfort.
She approaches him slowly, watching his shoulders grow stiffer with every move she makes, and comes to a stop in front of him, resisting the urge to reach out and brush his hair away from his face.
"Hey," she offers him a slight smile rather than a handshake, ducking her head to find his eyes beneath his dark bangs. "I'm Ivypool."
He hesitates for a moment, tilting his head almost imperceptibly
"Hi." His voice is rough, as though he hasn't used it very much, but beneath that it's deep and level. She smiles wider, and behind her the bell rings.
He sighs softly and pushes away from the pillar, then pauses, glancing back down at her. After a moment, he nods once, then steps around her, heading for the doors without a backward glance. Ivypool watched him go, staring thoughtfully at the twin wings adorning the back of his shirt, then follows slowly, the smile still playing around her lips.
Next time she sees him, she'll learn his name.

Seeker: So whatcha think?
Owl: Do you *dramatically points to audience* think we should continue with the new style? Opinions greatly appreciated.
Seeker: Review! Request! No flames!
Owl: Till next time.
