The sudden loudness of Piper's voice was somewhat startling, and although I tried to hide it, I did flinch a little. Quickly regaining my composure, I pushed my glasses up my face nervously, my cheeks a bright shade of crimson as I did so. All I did was nod in response, somewhat shaken by that burst of noise.
"Oh, interesting," I said in response to Sylver, my vocabulary drastically reduced to short sentences. I heard someone else introduce themselves, and I looked over across the aisle at them, and smiled slightly. "Hi Laurel." My voice had become quiet - I wasn't certain if she had heard me or not - but I fell silent after that.
I hope I'm not making things awkward...
(Sorry, didn't see your post before I replied '^^ He'll answer Piper's question in the next one)

Stover saw the boy was uncomfortable, so she decided to stop pestering him. Rhys decided to walk over to where Sylver was, as most of the back was still empty. "To everyone who doesn't speak Morse code, this is Sylver, though she's selectively mute, it's best for her not to actually talk, as speaking really hurts her voice a lot, so it's more comfortable to communicate in Morse code" Rhys explained to everyone "to answer basic questions so she doesn't have to, she's a dark mage, her full name is Sylver Lunydia, her voice and part of her face was damaged in an accident, so she wears the mask to cover the scarring because it makes her feel more comfortable, plus she thinks it makes her look cool" Sylver stuck her tongue out through her mask, Rhys just gave a small laugh. "So, questions? Comments? Actually please no comments, that could be rude" Rhys said

"- ... .- -. -.- ..." she clicked quietly, hoping Rhys didn't hear as he came over to help translate.

"Hey! I'm Piper Merriweather! Yep, a Merriweather. Sylver told us you were a light mage!" She was glad that there was someone as loud as her. "Sylver, your mask does make you look cool!"

Laurel agreed quietly. "Yes it does. And Rhys seems like a great person." She hung her head shyly. "I don't know any people other than you who are going to the academy. I'm the first mage in the Academy. I'm in Adimen." She shakily lifted her book of the airplane tray table, before dropping it as it reached a few inches in the air.

After a moment of being silent, I heard Piper ask a question. Raising my head once more to look at her, I shook my head.
"At least... not serious or well known ones. I'm actually the first of my family to go to somewhere to learn magic, as far as I'm aware." I smiled a little, trying to break the awkward tension that I felt, but was unsuccessful. Regardless of what I tried, I simply could not feel relaxed while talking. "What about you?"

She smiled, glad he was talking, and spoke in a quiet voice. "I'm an Argi. So were my parents, and my grandparents, and my great-grandparents, and great-great-grandparents-" she paused, flashing her hair vibrant blue to confuse him for a second, hoping it would come across as playful and not annoying. "-you get the idea."

Sylver traced a smile on her mask "she says thanks" Rhys said, he'd known Sylver long enough to be off of audio cues for translations. "So she's mentioned me before, huh, but Sylver, how'd you know I was a light mage, I never told you" Rhys asked her, confused. "... .... .- -.. --- .--/ .-. . .- -.. .. -. --." She explained. "Shadow what?" Rhys asked, confused about what she was talking about. She explained her ability as a shadow mage how she could read basic information of people from their shadows. "Huh, that's pretty neat, anyways, see you later" he said, going back to his seat at more and more people started to board. Sylver waved goodbye as she looked back over to Piper.

Piper squealed after speaking to Rick. "Omigosh you guys are adorable!"
