[open post for October]
A: (October 10-30, evenings, Hall of Pythia, open)
[Beginning with the evening of the 10th, Desidera's semi-frequent visits to the library see a shift in the sorts of things she reads about. While the subject of runecraft remains one of her newer interests, she's starting to read less about different kinds of magic (but not dropping the subject entirely) and more of anything she can find regarding Daemons in general; history, common traits among them, basically the works. She's rather engrossed in it, too, and hardly notices anything or anyone else while she's there.
That's not to say she isn't open to being approached; she is, she's just...not paying much attention to anything else.]
B: (October 12-29, Tues/Thurs/Sat mornings only, Mithril Cage, open)
[By now, she's become a regular sight at the Mithril Cage on some mornings, though she's also now settled on an actual schedule in regard to what days she is there to make it a bit less likely that she would be interfering with anyone else. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, when possible, she is there and starting between 7 and 7:30, spending at least half an hour, sometimes longer, but not so long as to be late for anything else; with this being something that Valvatorez had gotten her to start doing, it didn't take much to ensure that her earliest classes would be just a little bit later in the morning to accommodate.
Her training sessions this month are mostly more of the same as before, in that she practices what she already knows and tries to improve on it in what ways she can while making sure to keep it under control. Now, though, instead of stopping after any particular magic manages to get away from her, she stops herself the moment she feels it slipping, not wanting a repeat of the near-miss that had occurred last month. For the first few of these sessions, however, she doesn't seem quite as into it as normal, using the actual training dummies and other targets instead of any shadow-construct imitations, and deliberately avoiding the use of any shadows, for that matter.
She ultimately decides there's no point to restricting herself in that way as it somehow doesn't feel right to her, so closer to the end of the month she inches away from her regular magic and more toward focusing on the shadows themselves, making the last sessions of the month a much quieter ordeal as there are far fewer lightning bolts or exploding fireballs. The very last session of the month, on the morning of the 29th, is almost exclusively experimenting with the shadows.]
C: (October 13-20, overnight and also the morning of the 18th I guess, Aube 2 Commons, open to Aube residents in general)
[Over one particular week in the middle of the month, she's been finding it a bit harder to sleep. Difficulty sleeping isn't anything particularly new to her, but it isn't normally this bad. Rather than simply lying in her bed or doing anything that could wake Gunvolt, Desidera occasionally leaves the room in the middle of the night to sit out in the common room on Aube's second floor until she feels ready to try to sleep again, with a book and a pair of earbuds in (actual headphones are a bit Awkward for her), reading while listening to some music.
The book is one of a handful borrowed from the library, but it's one that had been picked out simply as something to read, not anything she had selected for any more-specific reason like a majority of the others were.
The CD is one of Gunvolt's; one of Monarch's albums. He probably wouldn't mind her borrowing it, she's assumed, and she'll put it and the portable CD player back where they were when she returns to their room later. J-pop isn't something she listens to especially often, but she's not very picky when it comes to music, having only one real rule when it comes to things she won't listen to.
On the night of the 17th going into the 18th, she ends up falling asleep on the couch and is still there the next morning.]
D: (wildcard)
[Want to just wing it? When not in class, her usual haunts during free time are the library, the cage, and the cafeteria, but she can also be found at Aube or in some other places too. Just be aware that she's unavailable on the 7th as a whole or on the morning of the 10th.
If you want to work out anything specific, I'm on Plurk as Espilan, Discord as Espilan#0497, or you can PM Desi's journal.]
