[center][h1]Edoric[/h1][/center] The rustling of chairs and footsteps awoke Edoric from his nap. He had passed out somewhere in the middle of the meeting from his spot towards the back of the room, carefully chosen so no one would notice him. The meeting was the same as usual to him, shit was going down somewhere, shit was bad, shit need to be killed, the tl;dr version of the meeting could be summed up as "shit's happening". As the first numbers of people trickled out of the room, the solider made his way out, concealing his presence with the dozens of tramping feet next to him. Slipping past the crowd, his mind and feet begin to wonder, unsure of what he was thinking of or where he was going. Edoric had been deep in his own thoughts until he feel aa tugging on his leg. It was Aria, pulling on his pants, looking up at her from her short stature. It always made him laugh a little, seeing someone the size of a small adorable child running around in the middle of a warzone even if they were "adults" in their own race. "Hmm? Oh, yeah. It was very interesting. Totally paid attention in the whole thing", Edoric unconvincingly bluffed, half the meeting he was daydreaming and the other half he was asleep. Didn't seem like anyone noticed his snoozing though so it was all good, "Yup, got all of that stuff in." [i]Dammit man, hamsters can make a more convincing argument than that![/i] Edoric berated himself for his bluff which he could tell was failing in fantastic fashion. He wondered if he ought to have slept more, but then he realized the entire purpose of staying up was since he was doing more damn paperwork and had to catch up on Magical Moe-Chan. "I hope we get sent out soon." Edoric quickly and adeptly (in his mind at least) changed the subject, "Kinda want to kill something or blow it up. Namely that one store who refused to give me my money back after I tried returning a musical wombat to them." [@RomanAria]
