Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Yes!! Score!! Look here dad wherever you are I'm going to be named after a famous ink thing! Then I'll really be a winner and be strong and stylish," She laughed heartily, head thrown back as she couldn't control the bubbling laughter that kept escaping her.

Zumei hadn't expected such good luck in traveling companion today, though she supposed they weren't really traveling together. She found that a bit of a shame. Then again, she could just ask if he wanted a companion. But that might also be weird. Would it be weird?

"Hey do you want an assistant or something?" There. Maybe that was okay. She could lift big things he couldn't.

Zumei grabbed hold of his hand and gave it an overly zealous shake, rattling his vials in the process. She felt official like she had made her first ever business deal. Though maybe business deals didn't almost lift the business partner off their feet with a handshake. Maybe she could suggest a work out for Howth to give him some muscle. Or if she found a reeeeally big glass vial and filled it up she could get him to lift those for muscle strength. Yeah, yeah, that sounded right.

"I don't really understand your work, but it's your work. That makes it special and interesting. And I like hearing about it even if I don't get it," Zumei nodded, attempting to explain her reasoning for things. "And I can protect you when you need it. Or get into trouble."

"To Tind we go! To find fancy things and exciting people! This shall work out well for us, yes it will!" Zumei agreed more to herself than to Howth. Deciding it was time to move, she grabbed hold of the boy and tugged him along, hoping she was going off in the right direction. If not she was certain he would tell her the correct way to go.
