Seph winked while waiting to finish her large mouth full of food "They couldn't take me anyway though I think in the case of Hebal they were looking for young people to raise up knowing little but their teachings since anyone with common sense would avoid them. But yeah I have stacks of letters about various things. The general rule with Psy is he is pretty much as opposite to Alpha as you could possibly get, if it weren't for me being there for the birth I would have guessed that he was swapped with some other family"

"But don't you ever have to bow back or shake hands or anything with the people you meet? Would seem a bit mean if people were making the effort to greet you and didn't have the favour returned or at least trying to give all the opposite gender guests some form of dance... now that would be tiring" Amane giggled.

Hebal paused her smile widening "That's right and hopefully we wont be wearing any armour while guarding. But if youre ever short on clothes you can always rely on Satoshi to make you a really nice replacement pair. So if she ever needs any armour all she needs to do is ask. I could totally make a piece just as good as Gils if motivated enough" she boasted.

Nares shook her head "Oh its not that easy to be a guard in the palace. Only the best of the best soldiers can qualify for such positions. I mean if you look at Elithana's small unit of soldiers. Every single one of those men have reached the rank of major or higher. Gotta work pretty hard just to be given a try out for anything to do with the royals"

Hayate nodded "Sure unless of course you are female. Think the requirements are lower for female recruits to start out simply because... well having three daughters its only natural there would be more times when they would feel more comfortable around people the same gender as them isn't that right you two"

"Yeah that's sort of true" Felina agreed glancing over at Corella who nodded also "It was really really awkward having girl problems and the only one you could talk to was a bodyguard that is the equivalent of a 29 year old man. As nice as he tried to be it was awkward for both of us. But you're right. Lets get a light lunch since we will be feasting later"

Satoshi smiled manage to hide her slight embarrassment at receiving such attention only half in costume "Sure I can show you my small trophy cabinet but none of them can compare to the gold an diamond trophy you won in Kunec. Much smaller competition and all. Must be nice having everyone in the world knowing you for your skills without having to win many trophies"

Oassu nodded "I'm sure they are all very elite every one of them though I'm surprised your mother or a nanny or something wasn't on hand for that stuff" he sighed thinking it was hardly fair on the guys "Sounds like too much hard work me though rising through the rank of major an all even if it pays so well" he yawned nodding agreement with Felina's suggestion.

Gil frowned shaking his head unknowingly making the dragon do an exaggerated headshake too "Well not really, I'm sure people hardly care about me most of the time, just a talented swordsman really just cause of that big tournament really I'm getting any public attention right now" he said stretching.

Itaka nodded mildly "Well I'm sure he's having a fine time, no offence to Alpha but I'm sure there's room for improvement upon him" he smirked finishing his food "Still I quite like the old demon so hope Psy isn't too much of a pain to get on with" he grunted.

Zadina frowned "Well normally a slighter bow or a nod of the head is appropriate but I suppose at this age I am expected to dance with girls and stuff" he sighed "I hope that's not the case, I might need to ask Uncle Elorin for a bit of guidance" he said scratching his ear "Though it does sound very tiring you are right" he said.

Jeckhart nodded "I'm sure you'll make your mark one day Hebal but I'm certain you'd be allowed at the ball so it'll certainly be a fun time for you" he said happy to see Hebal get so excited.

Seph glanced up from her plate surprised Itaka had finished his food so quickly "Well sure Alpha's one hell of a character and I doubt I have to tell you I like him too. It's just with Psy you have to take a different approach. God knows how he would reach to meeting someone with a figure like Satoshi's anyway." she smirked knowing it would probably not end well. "Gotta hand it to Alpha though, he may be perverted and somewhat lazy and pretty ugly to look at but certainly has a way with kids. Probably hopin Mu hurries up and gives him a grandkid or two"

Elsewhere Mu scratched her head "It will be the first time I have ever been to any form of formal party so I'm going to have to hope that my acting classes taught me how to pretend to be all posh and noble was a good one heh" she remarked glancing at one particular door. But don't mind me, I just really want to check out the deck now we're up in the air so you'll know where to find me" she added happily scurrying outside.

Hebal laughed "Well cant blame her for being excited. I was like that too when we first flew in this thing though you will have to dress up smartly too Jeckhart cause no doubt Zadina would want you there too no matter what cause he really likes you. if you didn't pack formal clothes Im pretty sure there are clothes summoning spells and clothes transforming spells and Zadina is good enough not to accidentally make anyone nakie"

Amane tilted her head "Didn't your parents teach you how to dance properly for occasions just like this one or are we both going to have to learn all the dances tonight?" she wondered unaware she was copying him with the ear scratching. "I just thought all rich and noble people had loads of training for these events because they are so scary and different to normal life"

Satoshi smiled and let out a small laugh at her dragon partners response "But people know you are really good to know to pay you lots of money within that circle of people. Bet if we got a house and a desk it would be full of people sending you requests provided we weren't living in a ninja village. But hey, fancy a quick teleportation spell back to the apartment?" she asked hoping he would say yes now more conscious than ever of the intensity of the sun.

Nares laughed "In an ideal world we would have more women wanting to get into guarding though in your case Felina, you didn't have all that many volunteers because of always trying to run off and engage in dangerous and not very princess like activities. Still if you guys would all like to make tracks, I think its pretty safe to leave you to do your own thing now and I can just catch you later on this evening" she suggested to them.

Felina nodded "Well I guess we could do that. I mean you'll be going straight to my dad no doubt and we would rather change into warmer clothes and such. Though I would like to think I wasn't that bad as a child an your dad was just exaggerating. Your grandfather had no bother looking after me"

Corella smirked "Yeah... well her grandfather was grand general before Dysocu. Kind of says what kind of trouble you were when only the head of the military is confident enough to look after one little princess that likes to ride fiends" she teased giving Felina a small poke "I only had a couple of guards and because I was so much better behaved then you I even got more lady guards than you. Wasn't me who climbed onto the roof of the tallest tower so we had to get someone to float up and get you"

Gil nodded "So long as you don't tire yourself out more, you'd think there would be a limit to this ability but you use it all the time" he chuckled struggling for a moment to pick up Enkidu in his costume before eventually pulling Enkidu under the costume to get a good grip "I'm sure I'd probably have retired by the point I settle down if I can" he grunted

Oassu smirked "Well she was an adventurous little girl from the sounds of it, nothing wrong with that" he said giving Felina a peck on the cheek "Builds character as they say but thanks for the trip today Nares, happy dragon festival!" he said waving goodbye to Nares.

Itaka raised an eyebrow "Why? Is he not good around women? I'd hardly say Alpha is a ladies man but if Mu's getting married I'm sure he'll get his grandkids sooner or later" he said sitting back to relax.

Jeckhart smiled and shook his head "Oh no need besides I wouldn't want to impose, the King doesn't know me after all so I would feel out of place at such an event" he said shyly.

Zadina nodded "Yes yes I was taught some fair spell of dancing but it's not too hard, we don't really do traditional elven dancing at balls because it's a bit more energetic than the guests would be used to in their big fancy dresses so any ballroom dancing is all you need" he explained glancing at Amane "Though I'm not THAT scary I hope" he said picking up on her last words.

Seph shook her head "Nope completely useless when it comes to women. Good thing he's just an alchemist and not a doctor. And Alpha would like to think he still had it in him to be a ladies man and I'll bet you have noticed that at some point heh" she added hoping Alpha had been behaving while in Hebal's place. "Well if she gets married theres a good chance you'll be there as my wedding date since no doubt I will be getting an invite for the event. Ever been to a demon wedding before?"

Hebal tutted and shook her head "na uh its rude to turn down an invitation from a little elven lord and besides, I bet you could get in just by name for I am pretty sure both Zadina and Felina have mentioned your name along with Kimino's at some point or other. Plus the king is really nice and was welcoming to us when we first showed up"

Amane hesitated "Well you aren't scary but all you rich people seem to have all these weird rules about what you should and shouldn't do in front of people that it makes you worry that by just being normal and friendly that you might offend someone in a way"

Satoshi paused having to concentrate a long moment before eventually whirling them forward through the village and into the familiar main room in her apartment. "Oh it has limits but nothing a good night sleep cant solve" she answered climbing out her costume for a brief sit down choosing not to mention to Gil that she was feeling light headed from her clones working most the night. "Anyway the trophy in a moment can go with the others on the desk. It's just behind that big unused canvas in the corner"


Nares bowed politely after a brief look around to first check "Builds more like other peoples characters chasing round after her. But yes I will see you in a few hours no doubt. And you know, your not too bad for someone who isn't actually a merchant. But don't worry, not many people will catch on and your past really isn't my business to pry into so long as you keep your nose clean" she assured him before disappearing without leaving him the opportunity to respond.

Felina smiled and kissed Oassu back until suddenly her ears picked up as to what she just said "Well that was unexpected" she sighed feeling slightly on edge "Truth be told I also think Nares is a bit disappointed that the trip went so smoothly. She's the type to love a good opportunity to fight fiends"

Corella paused for a moment unsure which direction to go in "Well I think it was a nice little stroll and she's definitely not the most intimidating of all the elven military figures you will be introduced at some point. The nobles probably wont be so nice later I'm afraid" she warned

Gil sighed stretching slightly before placing Enkidu down who grumbled slightly clearly not fond of the teleportation "Well if you say so then sure, just make sure you get some good rest tonight" he said moving over to wear Satoshi indicated to place the trophy down with the others "Heh certainly quite a collection you have here, hope you give the others a fair chance" he snickered examining the other trophies she'd collected.

Oassu grimaced watching after Nares as she ran off "Well whatever the nobles will probably keep their mouths shut if Felina shuts them up" he grunted wondering how much Nares had figured out "Still lets go get some lunch I think" he said happily.

Itaka shook his head "Nope, why is it quite a spectacle or something I'm missing?" he asked sitting back "An I dunno I think Alpha has certainly calmed down now in his later years, least that's the impression I always got." he said.

Jeckhart bit his lip uncertainly "I'm not really sure they will have mentioned me that much but perhaps I will attend, it is a rare opportunity after all" he admitted somewhat excited at the prospect of attending.

Zadina giggled "I suppose we do but it's alright I'm probably not the best of nobles because of how much time I've spent away from the estate, I hope I still remember my proper etiquette for events like that" he said.  
PostPosted: Wed Jun 26, 2013 5:58 pm
Seph paused contemplating what Itaka had said. "I don't know about that, in terms of how settled he was apparently he was a typical demon youth when younger. Liked to roam and act on instincts. Then settled down with his wife but still roamed a little then completely settled to look after his kids then sort of ran free to do his own thing again once they were all old enough to be away from him. But yeah demon weddings can be an odd sight since more often than not the one who proposed has to do something to prove they are worthy of the other half. Be it a song of kill a fiend or whatever so sometimes the trial is put in the ceremony itself. I went to one wedding where they made one demon climb into the mouth of a massive dragon to retrieve the rings" she explained with a small snicker.

Hebal smiled "Well there you go it's settled and your not allowed to change your mind, you're going to the ball too. It's meant to be your holiday too and you'll be moping around by yourself here. And I am sure Mu will come too which will mean I'll have a few people I can maybe dance with" she sung guessing the demon would probably enjoy herself. "And you Alpha could get some real nice food"

Alpha grunted looking up from his steering wheel "I love a good drink its true but... I'm gonna be so out of place there for manners and grace aren't exactly my strongest qualities and neither is my dancing" he mumbled before checking his map.

Amane nodded "Right though I am sure you will remember just fine and if not I am sure it will all come to mind again when you have to start the meeting and greeting of people. Wish us viera had nobility or something though. All we have is a council of elders though its made up of both male and females. Even then that council cant order people to do stuff only to follow their guidelines"

Satoshi also sighed rubbing the top of her head "Hey they get plenty chances, I only ever enter one of the two parades on each year on the day buy I think more likely than not its going to be a long night of loud music and celebrations and rest the morning after. That's the usual plan but never works out like that when you have a birthday the day after. So any sleep will be welcome. Probably just going to sleep a lot on the airship"

Corella snickered a moment "Hehe Felina doesn't do much shutting up though. She usually just ignores them as that's equally offensive to young arrogant noblemen. Except that one time.... hey Felina remember that really slimy one that you ended up slapping. Don't think I have ever seen Elithana more proud of you for doing that she teased.

Hayate smirked "I remember that and he had it coming. I think everyone wanted to do more than just slap him. Pretty much harassed anything in the palace that was female. And when your dad heard about it and that you slapped him. He just laughed and gave the lord a night in the cell to learn a few hours."

Felina blushed "Your making me sound really bad telling everyone only of the times I snuck out to see the fields and slapping people. But he was really horrible and clearly didn't want to listen when I told him I wasn't interested. I have learned since that just by standing next to the right people you can be ignored all night long. If someone starts giving us bother all we would have to do is edge our way closer to father or Nares or better yet.... Nares said Yandek was attending. Nothing tells nobles to leave you alone better than moving behind the 8 foot elf built like an ox" she laughed.

Gil frowned going over to Satoshi and massaging her shoulders and head seeing she was tense "Hey you feeling all right? Heat isn't getting to you is it?" he asked concerned "Guess you would be really busy this time of year I suppose if you want to grab a nap before we go out later that'd be fine I'm sure" he suggested.

Oassu rolled his eyes "Well then hopefully I won't need to give folks a talking too if they come and harass me, but I'm sure it'll be a fine night though you'd think folks would know to give you some room being the princess and all" he sighed "Still this is the first big elven event you've attended since our engagement there might be some noble types who had their eye on you before" he said with a shrug.

A stern look crossed Itaka's face "Well I hope you ain't planning on some big expedition or the like for me to do one day, should hope I'd already proven my worth to you in our battles" he grunted downing his beer and calling for another "Still makes me wonder what Alpha had to do and what Mu's husband will need to do" he said wondering how cruel Alpha's wife was at the time.

Zadina gave Amane a surprised look "Why? Nobility doesn't seem that nice in hindsight, not all the nobles are friendly and some of them are really bossy and mistreat people, you hear awful stories in tales of tyrant nobles and kings from old Human times I'm sure nobility isn't great all the time" he said

Seph laughed watching Itaka's sudden expression "Never said we had to have a demon wedding one day. And besides, its the head of the family that decided the task not the other half. But since my parents are long gone and having no relatives means that by default that makes me head of the family" she explained pushing the empty glasses to one side. "Alpha is head of his family so what Mu's fiancé will have to do is up to him. As for Alpha himself I heard his in laws... his wife's older twin brothers were in charge demanded he swam across this massive river that took at least an hour to cross on a calm day"

Amane's ears fell a little hearing the news "Well that's a bummer because all the stories we get are of knights and rescuing ladies from dragons and stuff. Our elder council just squabble over most things cause male and female groups have completely different needs. We are spread out like elves but I have no idea how your king manages to keep you so united" she pondered before turning her head to look at Hebal who was suddenly bouncing around the room "Uhh mum what are you doing?" she asked with a small giggle.

Hebal paused removing her head from the fridge holding a carrot in "Well I was hungry so thought I would get some food and then maybe do something with my fur. Maybe shine it up a little since we're gonna be seeing the king today. Just not sure quite what I wanna eat" she answered bouncing on the spot.  
PostPosted: Thu Jun 27, 2013 3:19 pm
Satoshi shook her head "No I don't want to nap and we have lunch to attend. I just need a couple of minutes to maybe sit down and catch my breath. You, me and those costumes were a heavy load after all. Plus what you are doing here feels pretty good right now" she sighed rubbing the side of her face against his hand. "I just think I'll have to go easy on jutsu and things because it is starting to tire me a little" she admitted.

"Actually a lot of people see princess as an easy target to gain influence. A lot of nobles are still sexist like that since they don't tend to be as into politics as princes which is why none of them ever tried it with Elithana. Better get your best suit on since you gotta make a few good first impressions tonight. Would do well to make at least one or two allies in the elven nobility before you marry into the royals" Hayate advised.

Felina nodded "Uhh yeah we better be nice to some of them. But we can just avoid the ones that I know aren't nice along with the odd ex boyfriend that might be attending. And I think Oassu looks dashing as is" she smiled taking his beret from him. "Though wont be allowed to wear a hat at such a formal event so will need to comb your hair" she teased.

Gil smiled stroking the sides of her face as well since she seemed to like it "Heh perhaps I should take lessons, I could always go into the masseur business if I ever hang up the sword" he said watching Enkidu curl up on the couch looking up at him expectantly "Well sure we'll have a simple day anyway probably have a good rest tonight with all the work and food of today" he said.

Oassu raised an eyebrow at Hayate's words "Allies? How come I don't really plan on trying to use the elven court for anything special, doubt we'll really partake in anything to do with it once we're married" he said with a shrug frowning at the thought of having to comb his hair "I've not had to comb my hair in years" he muttered.

Itaka grimaced "That hardly seems nice, I mean I know it's meant to be an ordeal or something but that challenge must've shaved a good few years off his life, you'd think that'd be something you'd want you little sister to enjoy" he muttered disapprovingly.

Zadina giggled "There are those too, mostly in Mineerin I hear, Yithra seems to have grown out of the 'knights' phase" he said physically lifting Amane's ear back up not wanting to see her sad "Nobles are more like influential and powerful people in Yithra now however Mineerin still has knights and nobles who are expected to don armour and the like, we should go visit them someday" he said.

Jeckhart frowned in thought "How exactly do you 'shine' your fur Hebal? Is there a range of products specifically for Viera and Nu Mou furcare?" he asked "If you'd like I could prepare some food for the party while you go spruce yourself up a bit" he offered.
