[h1][color=Ivory]Kyvirn Xaesos[/color][/h1] [u]Not Spying. Information Gathering. Difference. Moving on. I'll wait here.[/u] Having realized that he was with only his guildmates and only his guildmates, Ky had switched to sign language to communicate. Offering Penny a light wave when she greeted him. He also gave her the sign for 'meh' in response to her question of how his day had been going. He'd fallen out of tree and was now dealing with one of the more demanding people of their guild, so he couldn't say it was going great, not by a long shot, but the day was still early, so it could get better. . . or worse. Letting out a soft sigh, he seated himself next to the stand, reaching out to pick one of the flowers and spend his time examining it, waiting for those Phoebe to come and pick up her wallet. he considered leaving the task to Xae, but figured that if he didn't know the person, they didn't get out much, and as such, wouldn't appreciated someone like Xae being all up in their face as he was very likely to do. [@TheHangedMan][@j8cob][@Leslie Hall] [h1][color=Red]Akane Shimizu[/color][/h1] At the front of the Harpy Wing Guild Hall stood a red haired beauty, dressed in a loose-fitting, long sleeved top, jeans, and a pair of slip-on shoes as she looked towards where the festival was being held, a sneer present on her face as she turned away from the whole thing, instead going back into Hall in order to get something to eat. She'd witnessed Klisa's arrival and rescue of the boy who had fallen of the tree, and considering how the one she saved was a Golem, she felt that the Dragon Slayer should've left him to his fate. If he was half as strong as the Golem's liked to say they were, he wouldn't have been seriously injured by a mere fall, and if he was, then it just proved how full of hot air Golems truly are. [i]Klisa sure is taking her time coming down . . . must mean that Ceri's up amongst the branches again. Wonder if she's the one who pushed that Golem off? Unlike, she's such a frail spirit, I can hardly imagine her having the strength of will that such an act would require, even if the Golem was being exceptionally cruel to her and asking for it. That just the kind of person she is, weak in both mind and body, but who knows, she might make something of herself with that Smoke magic of hers. Either that, or continue to be a drag on her Slayer friend.[/i] Akane saw real potential in Klisa to be a top-tire mage, not only because she commanded a Lost Magic, but because she held quite a strong will of her own, something the Akane saw as necessary in order to be truly great. However, the only thing that seemed to be holding her back was her devotion towards Ceri, who was seemingly hopeless in Akane's eyes. While it was a good virtue to care for the weak, if you do so at the cost of your own growth, then all you end up doing is shackling your own growth to their level for eternity. As such, she disapproved of their friendship greatly, but kept to herself about it, for the most part. It was, after all, none of her business how they handled their affairs and relationships, though she couldn't help but make the odd comment here and there at Ceri's expense.
