Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lifting a hand up she gave him a pat on the shoulder as he said a job would be nice, slowing down just a tad bit more for him. He was trying his hardest, which meant a lot to him. Looking over at her brother she gave a chuckle, "Yes, you are, but it's alright. I can't expect you to keep pace with me on your first day, Dovi. You'll catch up soon enough, you just have to put your all into everything, running included. Once you've built up some stamina that is."

Looking ahead to where Anhalo was waiting for them, bouncing in place in the path, she said in an encouraging manner, "So long as you train with Anhalo and I daily I think you will be able to keep up with our full work out in due time."

"Hmmm, maybe a little of both? Or make it so that you're able to chase down and fight janarim with your bare hands!" She said, then chuckled and said, "Well, maybe fight them with a good pair of gauntlets that is. I don't know if going into battle against a janarim with bare hands is a good idea, even if you're well trained."

Nodding her head at his question he said, "Might be for the best. Running around on a full stomach is likely to land you with an empty stomach instead. I'd rather not torment you in that manner, Dovi." That and she really didn't want to see him get sick as it might cause her own stomach to turn on her. A thought that she kept to herself as she didn't want to appear weak in front of her brother. He was the one that she wanted to look the best in front of, so that he knew she could protect him no matter what.

"What about... just a teeny tiny one?" She asked, holding her hands less then a half a foot apart from one another. She didn't mean to set her brother on a janarim be it a full grown one or a pup, but that didn't mean that she couldn't tease him about it. She was the only one allowed to tease him after all, even if she didn't do so as much these days as she did when they were little. Back then she'd spent a lot of her time teasing him. Now that others wanted to mess with him though she didn't seem to have much of a chance to tease him herself.

Turning to look at him she starred a moment then shook her head, "Well... if your stomach starts to turn let me know and we will take a break. Next time you know better to wait until after we exercise, then you can dig into a meal."

Giving a bit of a grin she said, "I might be able to do that for you, Dovi. Just to be sure that they are able to pick on you too much. The last thing I want to see is you getting roughed up by a janarim pup." Just the thought of it made her giggle a little bit even as she said it wasn't something she wanted to see happen. It was just sort of amusing to picture, her brother getting chased about and nipped at by a little pup.

The jog began again, this time an easier one for Dovian, and one that involved Anhalo running circles around them. It seemed the easier pace was giving the beast a lot more in the way of an opening to try to get underfoot. It was something that had Shura chuckling, ever amused by his antics, "You really are the most adorable water kitty, isn't he? We should see about getting you a pet of your own too, Dovi. They are definitely worth it. Have you figured out what sort you wanted?"

Giving a bit of a pout Shura said, "There is no way! I mean, just look at him. He exercises just as much as I do! There is no way that he will get fat... unless mom keeps sneaking him treats... but otherwise I think he will be fine!" Just like with their mother giving Dovian snacks the same could be said for Anhalo. Both of them needed to skip the snacks... at least until after their morning exercise at least.

"New beasts brought over? From where? Yael or Belrea?" She asked of her brother in a curious manner, wondering if he meant to get a beast from a strange land. She gave a humming sound before she said, "Well, if anyone can get something like that it would be dad. He can get anything!" She knew how amazing their father was when it came to his merchant work, as such she didn't really doubt that he'd be able to get his hands on strange animals from other lands if Dovian really wanted one.

"Yeah... me too." No matter how often she asked that Anhalo not get overfed given she was worried about him getting fat like Dovian kept saying he would it was just no use. Their mother loved to cook for the family, the beasts included, "I mean it's probably a good thing that dad doesn't need Profit to fly anywhere cause I doubt she could, the chubby birdy." A thought that had her chuckling a bit.

"Ohhh, Belrea! Now I'm really curious what you're thinking about getting from there." She said, always wanting to know what Dovian was up to. At his mention of the 'crazy colored people' she found herself wanting to see some of them herself. She hadn't been that lucky yet, "I'd really like to see some of those from Belrea, just to see how colorful they are myself." She'd seen some colorful people before, like anyone with Matorian blood, but the Belrea tribes were something else or so she'd heard.

As Dovian suddenly vanished from her periferal vision she whirled around... then gave a hiss sound between her teeeth. Whirling around she faced off with the girl clinging to her twin and said, "He's too busy to be dealing with you people today, can you just bother someone else today?" She hadn't been looking for a fight but she was starting to think these girls were really out to get one today... and well, every other day.

Shura wrinkled her nose as the girl said that everyone was starting think she had a crush on Dovian, something that really ticked her off and turned her stomach, "Nothing so crude, I just know who is and isn't worthy of his time and it's definitely not you and your airhead friends." She said, flexing her hands slightly before letting them curl into fists, threatening the other girl without really doing so with words. If she didn't get the signal then she'd just punch her, it was simple as that.

Looking over at Dovian she said, "Don't worry, Dovi. I will run her off if she doesn't let you get back to what you were doing though, I promise." And in as few punches as possible since she didn't want to risk hurting her knuckles. There was nothing worse getting scrapes and bruises on one's hands from hitting someone too hard.
