"Well shall we get going for ice cream?"asked Rose "I am sure the girls can't wait for some." she added

"I'm gonna get back to the games and watch Joshua and Nolan fight their opponents, as I know both very well being a partner to both one way or the other."said Amaya quickly saying bye to everyone at the scene before she rushed off towards the stadium but she first stopped to get a large thing of ice cream before she continued her journey slowly enjoying her treat.

@Joshua tamashii

"Why are we here again?" asked a very annoyed but bored looking boy around the age of 11. He leaned on there counter in the set location with all the other merchants and stalls as his father finished putting their wares out on display having tons of wood cravings and jewelry made for varying stones and tons of other things in between.

"We are traveling merchants like we agreed so you can experience the world outside our isolated village...plus there is something I have to investiage. My gut is saying I will find my answer here"said the adult of the two as he Sat down with a huge log of wood in front of him ready to work on a sculpture someone ordered. He pushed his black hair out of his face as the boy sighed "you mean about the mage that is said to control shadows like your first wife and looks like her...you really think she came back from the dead?"asked Ryu.

"I don't know...but I have a feeling I will get my answer to finally put me to rest"Raiden said

Zephyr Hardt

Opening his eyes a surge of pain went through him as he laid in the infirmary bed. He looked around at his empty room wondering for a few seconds where he was, then remembered he got eliminated from the games. Well he was second to last gone, so he got his guild some gaining grounds, although his shoulder and arm hurt like a bitch. His head had some throbbing pain but was the least painful. Looking at his taped up shoulder and arm, he could faintly remember Karn piercing through his skin before Loki eliminated him. Frowning that Loki was the one who did all the work and not himself bummed him out. Only for his face to fluster when he remembered that Loki kept flirting and harassing Pyrrha, that only made for more people to apologize too. Well he had to look on the bright side, he was going to have some badass scars and he helped his guild in someway.

@Roseletta

Ike Riven

Leaving Gabriel to whatever he liked to do, he was making a exit from the arena. He wasn't going to improve by watching a team battle go on. So this would prove to not help him at all, yet as he was exiting the arena he wasn't paying very much attention and would bump into a small woman and hearing something land on the ground. Looking to help them up, he realized it was Ice cream and would look at the woman who's ice cream now laid on the ground due to his negligence. "My apologies miss. I wasn't paying attention, should be fine if I buy you more correct?" Ike asked her as he looked down, now kind of wondering who leaves a child to roam alone?

Jack nodded to Jackie as the hotel owner came up to see who the responsible person was for the damage caused to his business. Upon hearing Jamie, Jack sighed. "And, over time, we will get to know Frenzy Plant, but right now? There is not much love between guilds, especially yours and theirs after Damian's win on day one. For now, how about while we get the girls some ice cream, the adults get some cake or pie?" After saying this, he had a hushed conversation with the owner in which he paid for the damages and then watched as two of the hotel workers carried the unconscious mirror user to a cellar. He then turned to Jackie. "While I'd rather you continue resting, I get the feeling you're going to leave anyways, so do you want to come with us?"




James listened to Cody as he spoke, thanking the waiter for his orange juice and sipping on it. When the young man seemed to stop talking to consider what Slayer meant, James chuckled. "Cody, the term Slayer is familiar because of the God and Phoenix Slayers in our guild, Nolan and Penny respectively. If these two seem to have a beef with Slayer magic in general, then we may want to warn our guild mates and the slayers in Dragon Fang. But them saving you? That simply means that, just maybe, there is some shred of decency left in the pair, though I wouldn't put too much hope on it."

He paused to think about what reason they'd have to kill himself and Cody, going over the reasons. The most obvious was that they hated leaving witnesses, people who might ID them and report their activities to the Magic Council. However, there sounded like there was an ulterior reason behind their death threat, which he'd think on more later. "Again, perhaps they didn't want to leave witnesses and our guild likely made enemies of them when we brought down the old Magic Council, the corrupt people they were. Well, most of them anyways."

"Ice cream! ice cream, ice cream, ice cream!" Elyse said, beginning to chant the word, already forgetting the fight that had just happened as the thought of the delicious treat took over her mind.

Amelia frowned, watching Aria as she was taken away. She then glanced up at her mother, her frown deepening as she sensed the pain in Jamie's words. She reached out and took Jamie's hand in hers, giving Jamie a smile.
"Well, you don't need to worry then, because I won't be leaving you anytime soon. And I doubt Sammy will leave either and I'll make sure of that." She said, trying to cheer her mother up.

Jackie faced her Guild Master and folded her arms, looking defiant.
"Of course I'm not going to lay down. I've been doing that for several days now and I need to move around. Between the spirit and all the other healing magic I've gotten, I'll be fine. It doesn't hurt to move." She said, her voice a bit heated. "So I'll come with you, so you can at least keep an eye on me to keep you at ease."



Lucus wondered the streets of Crocus, looking at the various shops and stalls that were there. He was looking for something to get Rose, that wouldn't break his wallet. He knew he needed to take her on a date sometime soon but he figured he could get her a present first. He came across a stall with carvings and jewelry made of natural materials. Looking at the wares, he picked up a stone necklace with a small inlaid black stone that matched Rose's hair.
"Excuse me sir, how much for this?" He asked.

@Roseletta@Zarkun@Caits
Angelo sighed with a smile as he soon left the hotel, he did what he set out to do and now his conscious is clear. This was one hell of a week and hopefully he windbreaker be pulled into another revelation like this so soon. Angelo then wondered what he would be doing for now since now Jackie will be busy dealing with her mirror counterpart Angelo won't be going on that date anytime soon.

Angelo soon found himself in the merchant district and Angelo decided to find something to signify his growth on this trip, perhaps a nice hat would do the trick?

@Zarkun
"God and Phoenix Slayer magic huh? I've read about them, but don't know much about it..." Cody mumbled thoughtfully in reply...wait so 'Slayer' was a simplifed term for any form of Slayer magic?
His mind immediately flashed back to the wizard he had met yesterday...Amaya Van Isis. The Ice Dragon Slayer. If they were after 'slayers' would that mean they were after her as well?
However despite this train of thought, he was still listening to James' attempts to put his mind at ease.
"Shred of decency? With that guild? No...I wouldn't believe it at all." Cody mumbled angrily "I don't remember a shred of decency when that guild tried to burn me alive." Cody added as he traced circles on the hilt of his sword. He forgot about Amaya at this stage now, more focusing on the images which still haunted him occasionally.
"You guys took down the council? Huh, never noticed." Cody remarked thoughtfully now as he received his meal, giving a small thanks to the waiter before taking a spoonful.
"And why would dark guilds target us just because Phoenix Wing took down the council?" He asked rather ignorant of the fact of how corrupt they were. He had pretty much secluded himself from people, only hearing the odd rumour or two. However he didn't remember hearing such a rumour.



@Natsume Honnaji
Jasmine smiled brightly in response to his answer before entering the store. On the outside it looked like an ordinary dress shop...however on the inside, there were dresses of all kinds.
There were tight dresses, strapless dresses, wedding dresses, ball gowns, gothic dresses, short dresses and various other dresses. Jasmine was rather taken aback by several, other...shocking dresses and quickly retreated behind Robin as a woman(?) now approached them.
"Hello dearies, how may how I help such a cute couple such as yourselves?" The woman(?) asked with a wink at Robin and Jasmine, the wink making Jasmine's skin crawl and just shudder in disgust. And she hadn't even SEEN the wink, she was hiding behind Robin.



@Expolar
Georgie pouted as he seemingly got straight down to business. What a boring man...however, there was a presence about him that certainly gained her attention. So she decided that listening to him might profit her in some way, however upon mentioning the book which she did certainly have she now giggled playfully.
"Oh? Kleptotionap? That kinda rings a bell...However I own many a Grimoire, how would I possibly know which one that might be simply by name? I love to collect and play, however I don't like sharing." Georgie replied childishly as she was suddenly on a low hanging broken part of the ceiling, just swinging her legs back and forth as she looked down at him before giggling again.
"Perhaps a description of said book might help? After all, that's such a long and complicated name how could you expect me to remember it?" Georgie asked with a small giggle. Manami could tell she was simply teasing the man, she knew EXACTLY which book he was talking about.

However Manami didn't, she knew most of the Grimoires in Georgie's possession however this one she wasn't familiar with. After all, Manami was the one who generally had to catalouge the books because Georgie was simply too...well childish to do so. But she also knew that Georgie carried her more powerful, rarer Grimoires on her person or in an unknown location which she could easily access using her teleport magic.
"It's true Master, without his help I doubt we would've gotten far after Shiro's magic had been severely drained." Manami said as she placed an impatient hand on her hip, parting her lips slightly to show her displeasure with Georgie's actions.
The pose made Georgie straighten up slightly, raising an eyebrow curiously as she glanced down at Monsoon once more.
"Oh? Really? Manami, I expect details later...however." Georgie replied seriously now, her childish facade now discarded as she suddenly reappeared in front of Monsoon.
"You...No, I don't think I'll spoil the surprise. It's more fun the less people who know right?" Georgie said with a small chuckle rather than her usual giggle. He would know exactly what she was mentioning.

Angel Ferrara

He nearly hugged her.

He was in the process of one. His face had softened past even the point of his usual gentle androgyny, and his right arm was raised to slip around Cyare's shoulders if need be. But then his arm crooked over again to fix his own wet hair, playing off the motion. Like it'd never happened.

One of the first things he had learned from the world is that people don't want hugs as much as you might think. And that sadness, when someone presents a target by getting too close, can lash out as something else entirely. Then it just went back and forth and...

...

Angel wanted to say something to Cyare about that, apologize back to her for shying away from her so much.

But it would take too long to explain.

"You're okay. You couldn't have known, honest. No sweat, okay?"

"However I could have been more tactful." A faint hint of wryness manifested in a twitch at the corners of her mouth while she glanced over at Ferrara again. "Tact is supposed to be my forte. In more ways than you are aware."

She crossed her arms casually, slipping her hands under her arms and regarding her erstwhile compatriot with a composed expression much more akin to her norm. The faintest rise and fall of her shoulders indicated a shrug, and she directed her attention to the hall again while she resumed walking at a much more efficient pace. "Your understanding is appreciated, nevertheless. See your associate anywhere?"

@Oblivion666

"hm, I hope nolan and Joshua are okay.."Amaya said to herself walking down the street lost in her thoughts of the day and the possible fight joshua was stuck in. she wasnt paying attention as she bumped into someone falling backwards as she gasped with her ice cream on the ground "I am not a small child you should pay attention to where your going and yes I think that would be best...that was good ice cream that went to waste"Said amaya rubbing her head looking towards Ike as she folded her arms. She just right now wanted to get to the stadium and support joshua and Nolan

@Joshua tamashii

Ryu was messing with some things in the back of the stall as raiden was up front making sure to help who he needs as he looked towards the young male asking about one of the pieces "3 is fine"Raiden stated flipping a small piece of wood in one hand before cutting it with a knife making something "That piece of jewelry, is something that took me and my son awhile to make just right...whoever gets it will cherish it forever, my wife and daughter use to love those flowers"Raiden commented

sasha
@yipeeXD@cirusarvennicus
Sasha couldn't help but wonder what else would happen in this day. It seemed today so far, indeed this whole week, had had enough trouble to feed a whole year. Even before they stepped out the stadium, things seemed to happen. As Lazarus appeared, clearly hurt in more ways then one, Sasha nudged Trinity gently out the way as he fell.

She crouched, examining Lazarus, worried about touching him but wanting to do so more then anything. "what's happened?" she asked worriedly, wondering just how they were going to get help.

master Jamie
@joshua tamashii@zarkun@roseletta
"trust has to start somewhere, Jack. But perhaps I should talk with Sanders in anycase" Jamie said, turning to the girls, and Rose. "if you are sure, Amaya. Stay safe" Jamie didn't particularly want anyone to be walking alone, but she knew her members could look after themselves.

"let's go get some ice cream"

Nidhogg grimaced as his creation was rather handily thrashed by the dragonic humanoid, though thanks to that he had plenty of time to prep for his attack, switching to his speed form to easily avoid the sudden strike to his torso, though he did back away from the two light mages, his mouth curled into an annoyed snarl as he did so.

"Well, isn't that a pain in the ass, fuckin' teleporting magic. Such a cheap way to fight." As he spoke, he'd let out a sigh, disappointed in how things had turned out today. "Well, it's only natural that this clusterfuck would end in such an unsatisfying way. Later, councilman, I'll be sure to meet you again when I'm more capable of giving you a proper fight. But as compensation,take this little gift I just whipped up, from me to you."

Nidhogg would smile a bit as thr hydra's dead corpde would sudden:y burst into a flurry of rotting, stinking gases and dangerous shards of necrotic-infused bone. He didn't expect that to kill or slowdown the mage, but he knew it'd buy him sometime to make his escape, taking flight with his meat puppet through the city's sewer system.
@Expolar@Prince of Seraphs



"What, I'm not insecure about it, *pssssh* I'm not insecure about anything. You could strip me down right here and now, I'd be completely fine. Hell, I almost dare you! Ahahahahahaa!" Argus denied the accusation with so much bravado and fanfare that it couldn't ever be seen as convincing, though his exclamation did draw some pdd looks, causing Argus to deflate slightly as he regained his cool, clearing his throat as he finally registered her introduction, blushing just a tad as he tried to play the whole thing off."Anyway, uh, it's a pleasure to meet you as well. And in makes sense for someone with your sense og presence to be in such a, uh, prestigious position."

Argus phrased the end of his statement almost as if it was a question, as he had no idea what the Magic Council really was. As far as news went for him, he tended to only pay attention about anything that effected his current job and little else during his 5 years of freedom,so he knew jack-shit about the whole thing.

"So," he'd then continue, "Now of anything interesting or fun that we can do around here? Bit of a country-bumpkin type, first time in the capital, so I've got no clue where anything is."

@Lmpkio

@Raijinslayer


"What, I'm not insecure about it, *pssssh* I'm not insecure about anything. You could strip me down right here and now, I'd be completely fine. Hell, I almost dare you! Ahahahahahaa!"

Argus may be joking about this whole situation, but granted the shameless Council Member could strip him down if she ever so wanted too, weather its by force or by the use of her fiber needles ripping his clothes apart. However, she was much more mature then that, and frankly she had almost did a thing with Nolan yesterday. So Argus is safe... for now of course. When he finished laughing, he clears his throat and continues talking normally once again.

"Anyway, uh, it's a pleasure to meet you as well. And in makes sense for someone with your sense of presence to be in such a, uh, prestigious position."

"It's nothing much." she says, trying to act humble, as she quickly glances at her red nails. Maybe she should repaint them soon...

"So," Argus then continues, "Now of anything interesting or fun that we can do around here? Bit of a country-bumpkin type, first time in the capital, so I've got no clue where anything is."

"Country-bumpkin eh?" Rainbow Majesty repeats with a raised eyebrow, "Never thought I'd hear that word here. Regardless, I do welcome you to Crocus, the Flower Blooming Capital. There's much more then just the Grand Magic Games located there in the Domus Flau arena. Here you can also find Mercurius, the King of Fiore's Palace to the north, with the town's famous gardens to the east. I know a few good bars if you need to be hooked up with a drink, or if you want to cool off, I suggest the newly renovated Ryuzetsu Land Summer Resort."

Sayatachi was fairly knowledgable of Crocus, as it was the hometown where she was born, but regardless its been sometime since she've been here, so perhaps she was a little rusty herself. Yet she wouldn't mind to delight another mage and showing him around town. First the Nolan incident, then the Ayame and Malice trip, and now this. At this rate, she might as well be a new and popular Council Member...

Trinity had been lavishing attention on the adorable creature cradled in her arm, quietly showing Karn with pets and scritches and softly, softly, sooooftly kneading his paws like a tiny massage. She'd play with him, if he wanted, though it wouldn't take a moment before she'd realized Sasha said something to her. Just as she was being pushed out of the way, in fact. "Oop." She stepped a few times before turning to evaluate the wounded man in front of her. She looked over his wounds, extensive, frowning softly. "Uh. That healer couldn't have gotten far. did you see what guild he was part of?" Prince was a part of Dragon Fang, but that didn't mean they went there.

"Do you think we should move him? Prince probably shouldn't be moved, and the healer can't look after two patients so far apart... could he?" That would be quite the undertaking, anyway.

Angel Ferrara

"Iiiiii..." He began to straighten his posture out a little more confidently, regaining some natural comfort at the thought of being around Kaia soon. The two mages doubled back to Angel's room in little time at all. Cyare's hunch had turned out to be correct - she had stopped to talk to a somewhat austere looking mage, and they were passing a note that looked suspiciously like Angel's back and forth between them.

H-Heh. Oops.

"Kaia!" Angel called softly, raising a hand up to wave and grinning. "Coming up on your right. Brought a friend." He didn't stop to consider Cyare's reaction to the term, but instead closed the distance with her to reach Kaia Iona and her designated set of eyes. Ferrara reached out and ruffled the bedraggled hair of his blind teammate affectionately.

"Sorry about the note. I tried telling you to stay in bed." He looked up to the mage who must have been reading for her and smiled sheepishly. "Thanks for, um. Taking care of my friend. I'm Angel."

@Caasicam @HereComesTheSnow @Krayzikk

@Lunarlors34

Robin looked around at all the dresses he could see then at the person who approached them. He was unsure as to why Jasmine was hiding behind him but payed it no mind, she seemed to shiver as the person winked at them but Robin was unphased. Robin bowed politely to the person whom he assumed was the stores owner deciding to take advantage of the fact that he, she, the person..had assumed they were a couple and spoke up. "Well you see..madame..my darling fiancé here got her dress all wet outside when some mage where fighting and we don't have a replacement.."

Robin put on his best act hoping to fool the owner and get a nice dress for cheap seeing as how he didn't have much money. "This dress was specially made for an event we were going to, of course being specially made it nearly broke my wallet, I don't have much money but we really need a replacement before tonight. You see her family is going to be there and I'm desperately trying to impress them so they'll accept me and give me their blessing for her hand." He looked down with desperation and worry spread across his face. "Please...isn't there anyway you could help us..." Robin then looked back up at the person hoping to see that his ruse had worked.

@CirusArvennicus@Caits

Karn purred deeply as Trinity lavished him with attention like a spoiled kitten. He was too tired to do much else though. His shoulder hurt, still recovering and he'd need to eat more or be out in the sun for the Chimera's healing properties to properly do its work. Exhausted, but felt a little better with the fire he was fed. His Edolas counterpart still hadn't spoken and it was a bit worrying. Yet it was possible she was just exhausted as well since they shared the same body. Or she simply didn't want to talk to Trinity and Sasha. It seemed she had been somewhat curt toward them. Or anyone who shared the face of someone back in Edolas. It was a bit mean and unfair, but he could somehow understand. Even if she were to go back, it would probably hurt to go home and leave new friends behind. Yet it would hurt to just... remain dead in Edolas and never go home to her family. It wasn't like she could keep hopping between worlds, no one was even sure if she could go through once more. Or even if she did go, things would be the same time. There were many uncertainties. Yet he knew she would still try. Even if she sounded like she wasn't going to. He was unsure why she liked counteracting hopes with the uncertainties. Perhaps she just thinks logically instead of hopefully.

Ears perking ever so slightly as Sasha slightly pushed Trinity to go over to Lazarus, the Draconic feline gave a weak chirp of concern. Too tired to speak properly, but was worried over his other Guildmate.



"Aweeeee..... But I want to paw..." Prince chuckled softly, humming as he was set on the bed and cringed a little but took a deep breath and relaxed. Ears twitching at Michael and Jarvis, he gave a smile. "Feeding him fire should get him back on his feet in no time. If he hadn't gone berserk in the arena, he'd probably just eat fire girl's fire to get on his feet again. Hope's Zephy's alright. He took quite a bite too..." he said, eye focusing above him thoughtfully as he thought of that boy.

The kid looked like one of his own kind.... but wasn't a legit one like himself. It was a little disappointing. Odd to see one here in this country though. Didn't think he would.

Angel Ferrara

"Iiiiii..." He began to straighten his posture out a little more confidently, regaining some natural comfort at the thought of being around Kaia soon. The two mages doubled back to Angel's room in little time at all. Cyare's hunch had turned out to be correct - she had stopped to talk to a somewhat austere looking mage, and they were passing a note that looked suspiciously like Angel's back and forth between them.

H-Heh. Oops.

"Kaia!" Angel called softly, raising a hand up to wave and grinning. "Coming up on your right. Brought a friend." He didn't stop to consider Cyare's reaction to the term, but instead closed the distance with her to reach Kaia Iona and her designated set of eyes. Ferrara reached out and ruffled the bedraggled hair of his blind teammate affectionately.

"Sorry about the note. I tried telling you to stay in bed." He looked up to the mage who must have been reading for her and smiled sheepishly. "Thanks for, um. Taking care of my friend. I'm Angel."

@Caasicam @HereComesTheSnow @Krayzikk

Angel was doing much of the talking, which was not a paradigm that Cyare objected to. She did not know either of these people, and Angel at least knew one of them; that meant it made the most sense for him to handle conversing with them, as well as overseeing the introductions between herself and his associate. Besides, it freed the Tactical Mage herself from having to address the unknown elements of the group. She preferred to observe them all first. Which, coincidentally, was exactly what she was doing.

Roughly of a height with Cyare, darker complexion, and a noticeable preference for the color red and dark makeup. The former was impossible to miss, given the red streak in her otherwise white hair, but both were definitely present. Somewhat oddly, given that she obviously couldn't see either one. Perhaps Angel gave her feedback on her appearance? Or perhaps, like her previous musings suggested, her magic involved a sight replacement. Something to enable her to perceive her environment. Though she wasn't sure what could possibly do so to such a degree that she could successfully perceive color. Nevertheless, she was clearly able to move about freely without aid; her presence outside of the room with no clear source of help proved thus. Athletic build, more runner than weightlifter.

All of this was filed away silently, while she simply stood slightly back and observed the proceedings.

Kaia Iona

Kaia perked up at the familiar voice, lazily turning towards it with a content smile. Primarily because it meant she had to do less stumbling around the general area. She made a half-hearted attempt at batting away Angel's hand (she'd worked eight hours on that style), before following the offending limb to envelope its source in a quick hug.

"I was fiiine," she insisted, not that his concern wasn't completely adorable or anything. Kaia pulled away after a moment (it was just a moment!) to turn towards the general direction of Angel's previously mentioned new friend. They hadn't said anything, and she hadn't felt any sort of movement from them, though she was fairly certain that Angel wouldn't attempt to befriend a statue.

"Hi, uh, Friend," She chirped in greeting, before lowering her voice to a stage whisper, "thanks for making sure he didn't get lost-" she indicated Jungle Boy with a thumb to the side.

@Krayzikk@Plank Sinatra@HereComesTheSnow

Lazarus
@Caits
He was awoken by Sasha, worryingly asking him questions. He sat up holding his head in pain. "I don't know." He muttered, trying to thinking. "They were cloaked." He tried recalling the events that had happened. "He ambushed me. And tried to kill me... he said that my time was over and that his was beginning." He recalled. He looked Sasha in the eyes. "He was using the same magic as me Sasha... another god slayer..." He sighed, forcing himself to his feet. "I need to get to the infirmary, see if they can patch me up." He cracked his shoulder. "Like this will keep me out of tomorrow's games." He chuckled, before realizing the seriousness of what had happened. "They knew my name Sasha. They knew about you too. This was no coincidental mugging. This was a preempt attack."

Shujin

Several minutes later he forced his feet to move. He had to mull over everything Wither had said. "Damn it." He should've forced her to leave with him. He stopped, and looked up to the sky. He couldn't die. Not yet. He hadn't done what needed to be done. If he died the information he carried would be lost forever, and the chance of end of this age would increase. His eyes narrowed. He had no choice. He would have to kill Sasha, or at least try to until the circumstances changed and he could find help.

@Caits
FERRIS

"I'll try and go about this with an open mind...except if those screaming heads are served in front of me. I'll probably have a heart attack..." The food they ordered was placed in two large paper bags and ever so carefully, he checked the contents of the bag. To both his relief and disappointment, the food was all packaged up so he couldn't tell what they ordered. For some reason, he had the strange feeling that whatever was in the boxes was staring up at him even though the boxes were sealed tight. He paid for the food and grabbed the bags as he tried to rush off with Jess to the commentator's booth. With one hand holding the bags, he held a microphone in his other hand. Thankfully, there were lacrima visions all across the stadium so he could stay up to date. "It seems to be an even match between Phoenix Wing and Frenzy Plant! Nolan Waltz had brought a rapid fire of attacks upon the Frenzy Plant mages, but it seems like they have something to counter him! How will he handle this?!"

ENMA

Even though spirits were high in the Frenzy Plant stands, a certain oni's spirit was low. There was conundrum he was in; he wants to support Nolan, his friend and rival, but at the same time he wanted to support his guild for the games even though two of his guildmates were fighting Nolan and some guy named Joshua. Who could he pick? Who would he be loyal too. "God dammit! Why did you have to put me in this position you damn pretty boy?!" Enma slumped back into his seat and sulked.

@Caasicam @Plank Sinatra @HereComesTheSnow

"I avoided that outcome rather inadvertently while meeting him." Cyare commented, a little dryly, when the blind girl turned towards her. Clearly she had some measure of awareness, at least, if she could turn towards her without assistance. Given that she wasn't looking quite perfectly in her direction, however, Kaia's method wasn't one hundred percent perfect. Still, it was an indication of something. She didn't bother nodding in Kaia's direction or pointing to herself, knowing that they were pointless gestures that she would not be able to observe. She did, however, take a step forward and carefully take Kaia's right hand in her own, wrapping her left around both for a firmer grip. She shook the blind girl's hand sincerely, and released it after a moment.

"Ms. Kaia. Your associate has said much about you. It is good to meet you. I am Cyare Staunton."
