As he read over the notice, Aero happened to look up and see Alicia. He watched her as she walked around the guild, chatting with different members. He didn't trust her, that was for sure. In all the years she had been here, he had never heard a lick of her past, and he felt something dark under her outward personality. He usually had a sense for when something was wrong, and many alarms went off about her. Not necessarily about her, but maybe somebody close to her then. Maybe she was going to be hurt.. Maybe he should go-

 "So, you've signed up for the same quest as me and Mary. I think we're just about ready to leave. You ready?"

 At hearing James' voice, Aero turned around, smiling. He was fond of the kid, that was sure, and he could hear the kindness in his voice.

"Yea, I'm ready when you both are. You mind if I bring Elena along? She can help pick, and carry a few flowers, and she's really handy in a pinch."

 Today Aero had forgone going casual, and was once again in a full suit. Freshly polished shoes, and a black tie gave him a serious look, even though his face was anything but. Smiling, he ruffled James hair a bit, and chuckled.

"You know, we've never been on a mission before. I'm kind of looking forward to seeing your magic if we meet any bandits; Word around the guild is you're actually pretty good."

"Don't praise him too much, Aero. He might get a big head, which will then explode."

Elena walked up to them, elegant as ever. Pretty much the opposite of Aero, she had chosen to wear jeans and a t-shirt, with her hair up in a pony tail. She eyed them both, giggling.

"Y'know, you two look kind of alike. That is, if you were actually handsome Aero."

"Hey.... That hurts..." Smirking, he started to gather his things, putting them together. Provisions, books, a few of his suits, all of his gear, and a replacement pendant for the one he was wearing. All going into the bag, which never seemed to get full. Truth was, it didn't. It had an enchantment on it that made it pretty much bottomless. Much like Requip magic, he could call up anything he needed at any time.

"I'm ready whenever you guys are. Just give me the word"
