Welcome to Gaia! ::

Eric arrived as cordinia was unpacking yogtz's supplies. He approached her. Cordinia smiled and gave him a hug. "Hey there big guy," she said rubbing his head. "If only we were meeting under more fortunate circumstances,"

Eric smiled and hugged back. "Heh, I wish the same. Unfortunately, darkness is a real stubborn... Pardon me, I'm trying to cut down on cursing," he said breaking the hug. "Is yogtz with you?"
"He's in there somewhere,"
"CUT THE SHORT JOKES KUPO!" yogtz said angrily. The moogle popped out from the back of the gummi ship. "I hate flying in human vessels. They're way to big kupo," he said grabbing a rolling suitcase full of medical supplies. "You know where I'll be kupo," he said.

Eric looked back. "Oh, I was followed," he said stepping back so cordinia could see her. "I'm sure you remember kirune," he said smiling. Cordinia nodded and looked to kirune.
"I don't believe we've ever been properly introduced," she said approaching kirune and extending her hand.
"She doesn't bite kirune. It took me two years to get her to stop that," he said chuckling.

Cordinia lightly chuckled. "It seems we have a southern bell in our midst," cordinia smiled. She moved in closer. "if you need help dealing with his crap, come to me and I'll beat some sense into him," she whispered to her before backing off. She smiled and looked to Eric. "I'll be helping yogtz if you need me. I'll leave you two to your business," she said grabbing the rest of yogtz's luggage and leaving.

Eric looked to cordinia. "Something's off with you today. You're way more nervous than usual. Given our current situation, anything you need to tell me should come out soon. Please kirune, tell me what's wrong,"

Eric chuckled. "Cordinia doesn't care what your voice is like. She may come off cold sometimes, but she'll warm up to you. Give it time," he said putting his hand on her shoulder. "Now, are you ready? Got your blades honed and everything?"

Eric smiled. "Good. Let's go," he said before realizing peppermint was on his foot. He knelt down and pet the dog. "I just realized that you will have to be alone during this. That could be a problem. We don't have a kennel for... I guess namine would know that. He's basically hers anyway," he said.

Eric chuckled. "It's been to long Mr. Otanashi. Yes, we were heading out there. I just had to make sure a few comrades of mine made it here safely," He said looking behind him and adjusting his glasses. "I assume they're all meeting in the great hall? I will meet you there my friend,"
(my apologies if i butchered his last name. I'm going completely off memory)

Eric thought for a moment. Hmm, we can't leave him in the room without a kennel, we can't leave him in the ship, we can't let him run around the school, where can we put him? The courtyard maybe? No, to public and easily attacked. The infirmary? No, we don't want him knocking over equipment and such. Damn, we don't have many options. I certainly don't have time to make a kennel. Quite the predicament we have," he thought. He sighed after thinking for several seconds. "Well, I don't see any options that don't have severe consequences. Do you have any ideas kirune?"

Eric nodded. "I have it now. Kiru has a wife at the school. I don't think she'll be fighting, so she can watch him. Thanks kirune. I wouldn't have thought of that's without you," he said hugging her. He picked up peppermint and began walking back out the door. "Meet me in the great hall, I'm sure the headmistress will be organizing battle plans once we arrive,"
