Seph smirked spotting Itaka's reaction out the corner of her eye "Relax, we're hardly cooking for the royal palace of Yithra so your cucumbers are fine" she assured him having to go to the sink to give her claws a good wash from the onions. "Can't say I blame you, I love a good bit of meat but what do you know, we do have bacon. Your staff certainly know how to keep us stocked up on good food" she nodded aprrovingly.
Amane smiled waving the telescope around the area including a close up of Zadina's face "Hehe this thing makes you look like a giant and I can see all the little threads in your clothes" she giggled before diverting the telecope away to look at Hebal.
Hebal giggled gently pointing the telescope away from herself "Now now Amane its rude to stare at people like that so close up like that" she whispered noticing Amane now watching from afar the rabbit like demon encountered earlier on.

Felina smiled thinking it would be nice to try skating despite her fears of falling over constantly "Yeah it could be fun and I can heal all the fall injuries. And if everyone else around here can't skate well or at all here then we'll just blend right in with all the other crowd of failing skaters" she snickered.
"Well if it makes you feel better you can't do worse than I did when I first tried to skate. I ended up with a leg and a lot of bruises. Though these things have got a lot safer since it was done on my pilgrimage. Health and safety laws and all that" Elorin chuckled.
"your time will come and then you'll wonder why everyone is so into these drinks" Satoshi shrugged gazing down at her own glass. "Though don't worry about Ranmaru, he's a nice guy and less obnoxious than that one" Satoshi whispered pointing to her other team mate, Takeo heading straight towards them with drink in hand.
Takeo smiled waving at the newccomers unaware he also just splashed some of his drink over a lady who had been passing by "Hey you two glad you could make it. Hope your mother didn't do anything too embarrassing like how she i first ended up meeting her" he greeted them.

Oassu smirked "I doubt you'll hurt yourself enough to warrant a healing spell though how was your pilgrimage Elorin?" he asked "I think we have a young friend of ours starting a pilgrimage soon she even asked Zadina to be one of her guardians" he snickered.
Gil frowned "You should apologise to that woman Takeo" he said indicating the sad lady behind him "Though dare I ask him what happened when he met your mother?" he asked Satoshi.
Itaka shrugged "Sure of course they do a number of them live here while I'm away," he said "Though I did ask them to stock it before we got here," he said frowning "Unfortunately money will be quite slim until I cash some of those diamonds from Milly need to pay a visit to the bank soon otherwise I'll need to sell a chocobo" he said
Zadina giggled "Come on Amane you'll make him self conscious" he said watching as the teleport faded away into magical dust "It's rude to spy on others my mother told me so we shouldn't go using spyglasses to go snooping into others lives" he said.

Seph frowned shaking her head "No no Itaka don't sell a chocobo, we can find a bank somewhere I'm sure where you can cash in on the diamonds, theres banks like everywhere" she answered not liking the thought of a chocobo being sold. Why not offer your chocobos up for breeding? I bet a lot of people would pay good money to have their lady chocobos going on a date with Boris" she suggested with a yawn. "Did you warn your staff that they had a guest with a very big apetite because they certainly stocked up a lot"
Amane sighed and mumbled a small "aww" under her breath. "Sorry mum, Zadina too. I was just curious as to what was going on around me other than the sky but if thats bad I'll try not to do it again" she blushed and glanced down at
Hebal smiled patting Amane's ears "Hehehe your so cute when all embarrassed from a scolding. Just dont do it next time or at least don't make it obvious and cheer up for we get to go backstage soon" she cheerully told Amane pulling her into a secure hug.

Felina couldn't help but giggle hearing a small groan from Corella from across the table. "Hehe We've heard all about dads adventures so I think Corella is expecting to hear a story she's heard a few hundred times so don't worry about her" she whispered noticing her father smile and shrug it off.
Elorin raised his eyebrow surprised "He wants to be a guardian you say? Well then he's got a lucky summoner to have a good kid like him about with his talent. My pilgrimage was like all, long and hard and filled with difficult trials made to assess your worthiness of wielding such powers. But I enjoyed my time and I would not have stood out as much if it weren't for my more unusual guardianns"
Takeo turned his head confused for a moment as to what Gil meant "Oh yeah um sorry maam" he sighed the woman already having used a form of jutsu to instantly change her clothes into a new dry pair "Well put it this way it was certainly a memorable experience"
Satoshi shook her head "No you really don't want to know what happened but put it this way it was to do with how she was dressed and it was one of the more embarrassing moments of my life for sure. Funnily enough my guy friends didn't seem to mind" she shuddered.

Oassu nodded "Actually it's a young Viera summoner, Hebal's daughter Amane who wants him to go along and help on her pilgrimage but I'm sure he'd be fine helping her out" he said "Knowing Elven life spans it'll probably just be another little thing to add on his CV" he snickered.
Gil nodded "Well she seemed perfectly pleasant when I visited so its's not that bad was a lovely meal" he said "though I thought she only wore clothes like that at her work?" he said to Satoshi.
Itaka chuckled "Well they know they'll get to eat anything that's left over which is probably why they stocked on good food" he said moving the choppings over to Seph's pot "Still I'm not particularly interested in breeding though I suppose I could always do it if I wanted, Boris is still eligible and strong even if he's in the last years of his prime" he said "But we'll find a bank soon enough then I can put funds in the right places again" he said "Need to get used to not having a stream of revenue anymore since the guild shut down" he sighed placing the knife in the sink.
Zadina frowned reaching up to pet Amane "Hey now I didn't mean to make you feel bad but imagine if you were the one who someone was spying on, surely you'd not like it so much?" he mumbled a little sadly.

Seph laughed guessing Itaka was probably right about the food "maybe your not into breeding but if you don't want to keep the chicobo its just a quick bit of money if your the one with the male chocobo. Though be nice to Boris for some might say the same about yourself not that it seems to stop you performing" she teased passing the bacon to Itaka to deal with while she located the salt and pepper. "And we're just going to have to think more carefully about money spending and take on the odd job when we have the opportunity"
Amane smiled shaking her head slightly "I'm ok Zadina don't be sad. Besides the telescope thingy is gone now and so we have somewhere to be don't we. Like we can find you that mime and Alpha's kid and maybe pet the dragon and shoopuff too"
Alpha nodded trying not to laugh at Amane's enthusiasm "Yep you can do all that though I'm not sure if its a good idea to pet the dragon since they have a pretty nasty bite not to mention the fire. Though maybe the mime can teach you how to do a miming act yourselves"

Felina nodded "Yeah and Hebal's daughter is really nice and the pair of them get along great so he would definitely be happy travelling about together. And I think she's already asked a couple of friends to join her too though she's still young and has a few more years to go before she'll be ready"
Elorin scratched his head a moment "I'm sure Zadina will enjoy the experience and I remember Hebal, quite a lively one isn't she? Then again the females in general seem to be a lot more laid back. One of my guardians was a male viera who I met when I ended up passing through his town, he was pretty uptight for a long time and he was one of the better ones. But I got him to relax a little eventually" he chuckled.
Satoshi shook her head "Sometimes the merchandise would be shipped to our house and she would try them on in the house before she ever had to work with them. And Takeo pretty much picked a bad time to come visit with me"
Hitomi frowned giving Takeo a nudge in the arm before he could make a comment on how much he liked the view at the time "Not all the clothes are bad at least and she still every now and then ends up brining me back the odd pretty dress she's managed to get hold of from her work place thats been my size. But moving away from that, did Satoshi's dad try and break your hand yet with one of his infamous handshakes?" she asked Gil.

Oassu nodded wondering what options there would be for dessert "Yeah Hebal's just a bundle of energy and her daughter takes after her mother so Zadina will have his work cut out with her" he smirked "Right now she's just summoning squirrels and the like which is a cute ability" he said.
Gil shrugged "It wasn't that bad really but uh, wouldn't her dresses be the wrong size for you Hitomi?" he asked noting the difference in bust size between the two women as he took a drink, "Should we go get Ranmaru? He's been gone a long time" he asked
Itaka nodded "Well maybe then if you insist I could try putting Boris out to stud, will need a new black chocobo to raise to protect a new flock eventually" he said rinsing the knife off before proceeding to cut the bacon into smaller bits.
Zadina nodded "It would be interesting to meet him though I'm not particularly interested in mime acts..." he muttered quietly petting Merric in his arms "Still maybe we'd best avoid the dragon lest he think Merric is a little snack or something" he said

"That will do for now in terms of ingredients to put into the soup after that baconl" Seph decided putting her arms around Itaka from behind while she waited for him to finish the bacon. "And you don't have to if you don't want to get into breeding, was just suggesting an easy way to make some gil if need be and I don't particularly fancy chimney sweeping or thieving not that I would be good at the latter"
Hebal nodde looking down on Merric letting out a small kweh by Zadina's leg "Yeah I'm pretty sure that dragon would eat him if he got near Merric but he would be ok with the shoopuff if you keep hold of him so theres no risk of him being squished by their large feet. But you know, he's carrying something" she tilted her head curiously.
Amane blushed a little embarrassed she hadn't considered Merric when she mentioned the dragon "Oh yeah silly me but lets see what he has before we get moving..." she trailed off examining the pets beak "Ohh uh thats lovely Merric and your breath smells like popcorn." she remarked reluctantly putting the sticky sweet wrapper in her pocked to keep the bird happy.

Elorin laughed not really surprised "Well that is fortunate for her mother then as people of that much energy are hard to come by in everyday life. For me it was chocobos that I tended to summon though when I first got discovered as having the summoning ability it was rodents I summoned and they went all over the palace"
Felina shuddered the image of mice in the kitchen formin in her head "Oh and I'm sure all the servants loved you very much for causing an infestation in the palace though chocobo summoning sounds more appealing" she remarked leaning back for a servant or ten to take her plates.
Hitomi shook her head "Maybe for her but she did all those fashion show type things and would pick up any left over clothes on offer that were in my size and would bring them back. Some were a little revealing but the majority of them were fairly nice" she explained
Satoshi smiled putting a hand on Gil's shoulder "My mum can be generous sometimes and she brings nicer stuff back for Hitomi with more taste than me, probably because she's younger and besides Ranmaru is over there, the one moving towards us and trying not to stare at you" she snickered.

Oassu smirked "Sounds like you were quite the handful yourself when young, guess Felina inherited your adventurous spirit" he said "Though it must be pretty easy to break the economy if you can just summon an endless amount of chocobos" he said pondering on the potential riches to be made if Amane could do it.
"Well your mother does have access to a large variety of clothes but it's certainly a nice offer" he said glancing at the figure walking through the crowds as Enkidu turned to see who everyone was looking at "Now behave and don't tease him Nadira, he is your superior officer after all right?" he asked uncertainly as he returned his attention to Nadira.
Itaka nodded "I'm hardly a great thief either, but we'll make our money somehow, could always just go see milly sometime, I still have an elixir somewhere in this house I think," he said "Most Agralian home first aid kits come with either an elixir or an X-potion from the government, part of the healthcare I guess" he said moving the bacon over to the pot.
Zadina nodded to pet Merric who let out a small kweh happy to see Amane take his gift "I'm a little worried he probably shouldn't be eating popcorn but I doubt we'll be allowed to get close to the dragon anyway, looked pretty ferocious and that demon was probably well trained as a dragon tamer anyway" he said

Seph grinned the thought of diamonds flashing through her mind a second "Well maybe we can see Milly depending on the order we are picked up in and maybe if we ever go visit Psy we can convince him to make us lots of elixirs to feed to her for more diamonds" she suggested gathering up the chopped vegetables to throw in the pot "Shame we're both not good thieves otherwise robbing Agralia would have worked out to have a huge payout though I bet lots of people wasted their elixirs on minor things"
Alpha shrugged "That demon isn't so bad. You know there are some demons that are three times the size of that dragon. Its just if some were to live here they wouldn't exactly be able to fit in with the rest of society without risk of crushing half the buildings" he chuckled steering them around the side of the tent,
Hebal nodded skipping with Amane behind Alpha "Well the big demons Im guessing stayed home where its a lot more roomy for them to have fun. But I know all about dragons and it probably has a really strong tamer because they can smell fear and won't listen to who they think are week. And I may not know much about chocobos but I'm sure pop corn isn't a chocobo diet" she added with a giggle as Merric let out a low kweh sounding like a moan.

"How would summoning chocobos break down the economy? They are just birds that are occasionally used for transport around here" Corella asked confused by Oassu but stopped to thank, the servants as they came by replacing everything from her plate to her napkin.
Elorin shook his head "Well maybe. Or maybe Felina got it from my dad. I'll tell you now I did not want to go on a pilgrimage. Kicked up a right fuss when I found out I was being sent out into the world to be 'sorted out and made into a real man' or something along those lines. I'm sure you can imagine what a spoilt child a prince can be" he admitted.
"Well if you can't occasionally tease your superiour officer then theres not much fun at all because its feels a lot less satisfying when its someone of a lower rank" Takeo shrugged snickering as team mate avoided eye contact not enjoying the fact so many eyes were upon him all of a sudden.
Satoshi nodded whispering to Gil "Yeah in terms of ranks amongst the team it goes Ranmaru, me, Takeo and Hitomi. Not that it really matters amongst a team since you all work together and its better to treat yourselves as equals"
Ranmaru sighed eventually stopping by the table "Satoshi, welcome home. You could have at least told us you planned on coming back or we would have planned something a little more special than this to celebrate" he tutted placing a hand on her shoulder. "And umm it's an honor to meet you sir. I've heard pretty much all the impressive stories about you" he added to Gil extending his hand to shake.

Oassu chuckled "You summon chocobos you sell chocobos you summon chocobos you sell em and so on, surprised no one has tried it before, though probably some summoner rule preventing it." he shrugged wondering why the plates were being replaced "I've had enough food thanks" he said too late as the servant had already hurried away.
Gil smiled trying to be as welcoming as possible "The honour is all mine" he said extending one of his lower arms to shake his hand "A pleasure to finally meet the man who leads Nadira's team though I'm not entirely sure how ninja teams work I'm sure it's quite the responsibility" he said
Itaka nodded "Would be handy if you liked though I wonder if Yenytai would get mad if she caught wind we were abusing Milly in that way" he said moving aside to let Seph at the pot easier leading against the fridge "Yeah they have a committee to ensure the proper usage of those medical kits they are intended for life or death incidents, it's expensive but the government saves by having nearly no hospitals to compensate, mostly small clinics" he shrugged.
Zadina frowned picking up Merric "Uh oh I hope you didn't make yourself sick like that Merric" he said casting Esuna on the chicobo's belly "Can't go eating everything you see lying around, it's not good for you" he said scolding the chocobo likely before giving it a hug and following Hebal
