Satoshi sighed "Yeah my brother has issues and my mums career doesn't exactly help when his friends buy the magazines that she features in. But yes my older brother is a lot more civil than my younger one and I get on really well with him. He's always been more tame then me and doesn't like being away from home too long which is probably why he chose to be a teacher"
Hayate rolled his eye "Now if I wanted to make a load of money from doing shady business instead of going to your guild I would just go back home and suck up to my sister a bit. My sister might be head of the Klossovskys now but we didn't leave on bad terms despite the circumstances with me and my dad."
Felina laughed "I really couldn't see you going back to your family, you dont even keep in touch. Though you will get a nice swimming pool and tennis court and chocobo/horse stable if you come to live in my private estate Oassu. But is a swimming pool really a big deal and I just don't get it because this place has three of them?"

Gil nodded "I'm sure though I can understand how awkward it would be for that boy considering your mums job" he mumbled quietly "Still I'm sure it'll be a pleasure to meet him" he said "Doesn't your mothers profession bother you as well?" he asked.
Oassu bit his lip a bit "Well yeah they are a pretty big deal, I'm sure they could easily afford you a better life" he said "Though yeah swimming pools are big deals, the only place they aren't really uncommon is in Tricasia's region but that's because most houses have them there for the heat" he said
Zadina nodded looking out the window for the ground "Well ok then, just let me know whereabouts you'd like me to land the ship Captain" he said nervously "I hope it's not too bad and rough" he said keeping his eye on the gauges.
Jeckhart groaned as Hebal helped him up "No thank you I'll be fine though you didn't need to get me up it'll be ok" he said rubbing his head where he landed on it "So we are in Bangaa country already?" he asked.

Alpha paused moving glancing out the large window "I want you to land next to the tree. It's about 200 meters away from the funfair part behinf the big wheel thats been set up. They don't usually have a fair on at the same time... must be a nice little extra for the dragon festival" he concluded pointing the destination out to Zadina.
"But if we didn't get you up then you would be too busy going to dream land to notice that we were all ready to have fun and adventure. Hopefully you had nice dreams while you were asleep too" Amane added shuffling about impatient to get back up a floor
Hebal smiled dragging both Amane and Jeckhart back to the steps by their hands"Ok but if ya get dizzy do say something as thats a really bad head injury symptom. In the meantime, yep we're in bangaa land so its gonna be a reasonably warm day when we get out."

Hayate smirked and nodded his head "Swimming pools are a sign of luxury for surein almost all places you go to with the exception of very wealthy countries with good weather then its just standard but the stables are the more luxurious overall. And if your a very good boy I'll fix you up a few contacts if you ever fancy the odd business deal with the family" he teased.
Felina shrugged ans giggled hearing a small burp coming from Tuilinn "If you guys say so. It's funny really because the poor want the houses and fancy swimming pools and the people who have them often just want a simpler life. As for stables, they require staff and land and everything so I get why thats more upmarket than the pool"
Satoshi paused "well... yes it does a little because it's embarrassing but at least my friends aren't her fans and target audience so it's not quite as bad until I got a boyfriend and they found out. That and she's stopped trying to convince me to have a go at it mostly. Still Haru has larger issues than that but thats his problem and not mine."

Oassu nodded "it's why property in Tricasia is so expensive..." he said frowning "Remind me to send what diamonds I have to Jenna, she'll really need to fork out if she wants set up in Tricasia, plus I'd like my future Tricasian villa to have a pool" he said smiling as Tuilinn finished the bottle "Well guess he's sorted for food at least" he said
Gil frowned "Was it really bad for your previous boyfriends, though I'm very grateful you didn't take up your mother's profession if you don't mind me saying." he said looking over the bridge as they passed back over it "Nothing against your mother but I like a degree more privacy in a relationship, how does your father deal with it?" he asked.
Zadina nodded "That'll be quite nice we can go play there later" he said moving toward the destination "Captain Alpha can you help me please I'm a little nervous about this" he said bringing the airship to a halt above the field.
Jeckhart nodded waving to the Alpha and Zadina as he was dragged back upstairs "Ok I'll be fine, I can still use a tiny bit of white magic if I need to" he sighed "Bangaa territory...I've never been here before, how warm is it?" he asked.

Alpha nodded taking hold of Zadina's hands "Hey relax, you were doing fine so far and like I said a good landing takes trial and error to learn to do but for the sake of ease I'm going to make you do a good one so try to take note if you can " he chuckled guiding the boy's hands around each of the levers. "There we go, no problem landing now. And to answer your question Jechartm the temperature is 15 degrees so a light jacket will keep you warm enough" he recommended.
Hebal smiled bouncing around and lifting Amane up for a better look out the window "Thats still t-shirt weather for us so horray for bangaa winters not being that cold. Though I have only been to this part of the world once and that was only to change airships
Amane gasped taking a proper look outside "Wow check out all this, so much for being just a giant tent it looks awesome. Plus its a new adventure for many of us seeing the bangaa lands for the first time and having a proper roam about" she cheered.

Satoshi nodded her head approvingly "Yeah I agree with you, theres some things that are just not anyone elses business but dad just doesn't mind. I think he likes the attention he gets and can be somewhat smug about the fact that he has her all to himself. Though it was always more awkward for me when I brought someone round since usually they would be more interested in my mum or would expect me to be just like her"
"He'll be wanting more the moment we start dinner, for some reason feels left out even if he's already had something" Hayate chuckled gently pulling the bottle out of Tuilinn's beak who had been sucking on it regardless of the lack of extra milk "Yithra is a pretty expensive place to live, with its low crime rate and wealth. Even the ruined houses are still twice as valuble as small mansions in other elven towns." he stated much to Felina's surprise.
Felina sighed wishing there was another bottle full so she could have another go "Yithra isn't that expensive is it? And don't worry I'm sure Jenna already thought of Tricasian villas with swimming pools. The only problem with Tricasia is that I need half a bottle of suncream a day there as I burn that easily"

Gil grimaced "Disgusting that your previous boyfriends would get so obsessive over your mother when visiting" he sighed "Though I'm very glad you aren't like your mother, though I wonder can your mother fight properly?" he asked "Since it's a ninja village I imagine everyone has some form of combat training here" he said.
Oassu snickered as Tuilinn kwehed in disappointment at having the bottle taken off him "His voice is so high pitched and small it's cute but here Felina you take him back I'm sure he prefers you anyway for cuddling" he said handing Tuilinn back to Felina "Yeah well it is a capital city in a way, there's a lot of tourism in having the royal palace here" he said
Zadina nodded starting the descent to the ground "Bangaa country is in the same bit of the world as Tricasia which is why they have similar climates" he said quietly trying to maintain his focus on landing properly eager to see what was outside.
Jeckhart nodded "I suppose so, it will be my first expedition to the Bangaa lands too, though there's many bad tales about the bangaa though I suppose the same could be said of any kingdom" he said looking outside the ship "Hmm what are those things?" he asked not recognising the big wheel outside.

Hebal laughed suspecting that Amane was privately unsure about the wheel "Well to you guys it's probably not a special thing but its a big wheel you sit in and it takes you up real high to the top for a nice view and stuff. It's not a fast wheel either so you won't be scared and can enjoy it.
Amane nodded watching the small rollercoaster with the most curiousity "It looks interesting for sure and even if I'm used to you taking me up real high that it could still be a nice little thing. Though mr Jeckhart, isn't it true that no matter where you go in the world there is always at least one good and one bad tale about the place since everyone does different stuff when there?"
Alpha smiled whispering to Zadina "Relax your doing fine, and besides you have me keeping you in check" before adding "If you want theres always an autopilot to help you out with the landing". He then moved Zadina's hand so it pushed down slightly further on the left lever "So long as its not all day rain weather temperature doesn't matter to me"

Satoshi laughed following a small crowd of paprents heading to the same destination as they were "Not everyone can fight but many will try to get top ninja jobs. Mum is actually a ninja drop out. As in she was one for a while but never made it through the promotion trials so went for a higher payed job that didn't require such harsh exams for a promotion" she explained.
Felina gasped getting her arms up quickly to take a quick hold of Tuilinn "I'm sure you could do good at cuddling if you tried hard enough silly but if you insist. Though Yithra doesn't have a big tourist scene because of how dangerous the forest can get and not many people not elves come to see the palace"
Hayate paused scratching his chin "Theres a few more dedicated travellers who do come to Yithra for a holiday but the more popular elven holidays are in places like Keyol for a nice little skiing holiday and to look at the 5 foot snow elf locals. And then theres Sytudo right on the edge of the Issormi and probably the only place in the desert that the emperor still has a decent level of control over"

Gil smirked "So what she wasn't good enough to be a ninja?" he said "Though her job definitely doesn't really require qualifications so to speak" he sighed wondering absently what the ninja school was like "What about your dad? What kinda ninja is he?" he asked.
Zadina shook his head "I'll be fine without the auto-pilot I just need to be gentle" he said pushing the button for the landing gear as the ship descended to the ground.
Jeckhart nodded "You are right Miss Amane, well I'm sure you'll have plenty of time to have fun here though it might be wise to get some lunch first since we've been flying a while" he suggested sitting down for the landing.
Oassu chuckled "Maybe but I'm sure you'd appreciate cuddling Tuilinn a little more, still surprised Yithra doesn't get many tourists, then again it doesn't have an aerodrome so it's not exactly the most accessible place in the world though isn't 5 feet a little small for an elf?" he asked

Hebal paused "Lunch.... ooh theres some leftover sandwiches on the kitchen bench that haven't been there too long. Alpha made them as a light lunch for us but we decided not to wake you. Promise I haven't got any paint on them" she added hoping nobody noticed she had accidentally managed to get a red paint spot upon the bottom of her leg.
Amane nodded holding Merric between Hebal's ears "Uhuh and this naughty little chocobo kept trying to steal the cheese out of mine and eventually succeeded. But that ok I'm full up enough and I've left pleanty room to try this candyfloss stuff I've heared about. And maybe some popcorn later too"
Alpha chuckled concentrating on the small bump made by the airship as it finally touched upon the ground "Nice to see you have spirit but theres no shame in using autopilot some of the time. Even old Alpha needs a little help from the ship sometimes. But there we go all sorted"

Satoshi tutted noticing the smirk "Hey don't be mean, she did become a ninja. Just a low rank one then went onto something else she enjoyed more and with better pay. Dad on the otherhand is I suppose you could say a higher rank than me. Technically we are the same rank but because I only specialize in one major field rather than a bit of anything I'm viewed often to be of a lower status. Though if you meant fighting wise, most of his jutsu are based around his love for physical attacks"
"Not all elves are tall" Hayate answered bluntly as he placed the bottle to one side "Elves are just like people at the end of the day, all different skin colours shapes and sizes and the snow elves.... they just happen to be smaller than average and apparently look the most jolly. There are also a lot less of them about nowerdays since a lot of them like isolation"
Felina giggled tickled by Tuilinn wiggling his feet against the sides of her arms "I've only ever seen one of those elves before, it's nice that they are so peaceful and trouble free. And theres no space for an aerodrome in Yithra so everyone has to try and make their way through the forest though I think a lot of residents wouldn't like many tourists for fear of them doing the most aweful thing ever, dropping litter!

Gil smiled cuddling Satoshi gently "Don't get me wrong I don't mean to offend, still learning about your culture thought you meant she hadn't passed the exam to be a ninja at all but your dad sounds like a pretty cool guy from the sounds of things" he said "Shame we don't speak each other's language" he added.
Oassu scratched his chin "Odd for a jolly race of snow elves to like isolation so much, oh well least they're still taller than dwarves and Nu Mou though doesn't Yithra have a system for dealing with litter anyway? Bins and the like all need cleaned" he said pulling a funny face at Tuilinn.
Jeckhart smiled watching as Merric kwehed proudly as he was held up "Well we'll need to guard our food more carefully from him Miss Amane though it would appear we have arrived" he said walking over to help himself to a sandwich "Though you don't want to make yourself ill by eating too many sweets Miss Amane, remember gluttony is a sin" he added.
Zadina nodded "Now how do I turn the ship off Captain? All these buttons and devices are still lit up and stuff" he said looking around all the buttons and switches he didn't know yet.

Hebal laughed "Try giving Seph that lecture, now theres a person who can never get full from eating. Though Amane will be fine, let her go nuts this one time as it's her holiday and the forest doesn't have all these epic things" she insisted finally letting go of his arm. "Though I do think we're going to have to teach Merric that cheese isn't chocobo food"
Amane smiled back ignoring the slight pain in her ear she received while the ship was landing "Don't worry I'll be good, I don't want to feel sick on my first ever holiday or I won't be able to take advantage of what little time I have here"
Alpha yawned moving back from Zadina "Turning the engine off is easy. Push the little green button here and pull out the keys right next to it and your all sorted" he informed the elf before demonstrating "And now we have the keys out you can have the honor of unlocking the door.... Well guys now we're hear the show isn't going to start just yet so you can either have a look round and meet back or you can join me in sorting tickets out the moving backstage"
