Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lucy gave Loke a playful smile. "You'll be waiting a while then, because guess what? There's no alcohol to wear off!" she responded defensively. She gave an amused giggle at Loke's reply to Jason. "It's true, we love our men in suits!" she added, winking at the two of them. She watched as Jason walked off and gave off a small sigh. "He's always up and going, he hardly stays still anymore," she commented quietly, smiling to herself.

Juvia, at this point, was basically squealing to herself inside her head things like Gray-sama! You're so cute when you're embarrassed!! and Juvia is so lucky to be going on a quest with Gray-sama! She listened to Gray compliment her and let a big, shining smile spread across her face in appreciation of what he was saying and felt a deep blush cover her cheeks as he patted her head.

Jason listened intently as Theodore explained the aim of the quest. Interesting, this was the kind of quest he liked doing the most. Not a lot of talk and a hell-of-a-lot of a** kicking. He gave Theodore a big grin and a thumbs up. "Count me in, then!" he exclaimed eagerly. "We leaving soon? I'm gettin' pumped already!" he said to no one in particular.

Rein gave a small laugh at Theodore's comment. "This is how it is everyday. It's a bit daunting at first, but you get use to it eventually," she explained, noticing his shyness as he attempted to cover the top half of his face. She gave him a cute half-smile and tried to figure out why. Was it something she said? Did she do something to make him act like this? She shrugged off the thought and gave him a soft smile. "Hey, you're not a member of a Guild, are you? Have you ever considered joining Fairy Tail?" she asked politely, trying not to sound imposing or demanding.

Taura didn't seem the least bit effected as Yukio bit her. Instead she closed
her eyes, suddenly her entire body started to spark as electrical current
flowed though her body, electrocuting the male until he let go. She didn't
flinch at his glare, rather held the same, almost expressionless face with a
faint smile on her face. She turned to look at Theo as his comment,
shrugging. "We prefer to call it being members of fairy tail." She told him.
Sometimes... people did act like kids... and that was on with her.

Master Marakrov smiled slightly at Theos comment to himself, already sitting
right beside the male when he answered back. "Because that's what
Fairy Tail is, it's a place where people come and aren't afraid to let loose,
where they know they're accepted and they can be themselves and be loved
by it. It takes many different forms, but it's already there." He told him.

Devi frowned slightly at his question, "Heeeeeey, what are you implying?
I only take care of people that need taking care of." She told him, crossing
her arms and giving him a childish pout. "I'm not the guild bully you know."
She told him.

Lucid's eyes widened, "Really?! That's so far!!" He exclaimed as he stood up,
laughing at her response. "You don't have to be embarrassed!" He told her,
shaking his head with a laugh, suddenly seeming older than his implied age
as he continued. "You're free to be who you want here, no one's going to
think less of you for getting excited!!" He told her before his regular
mannerisms returned. "Besides... in this guild, there will always be people
louder than you." He winked.

Celina smiled as she watched them, momentarily glancing over to Devi and
Will who were beside them. Celina rolled her eyes at Devi's replied. "I think
the entire guild fits into your description of 'needs taking care of.'" She
laughed before glancing at will, "Any minute." She told him with a smile
before returning to her conversation.

Loki nodded, "Of course," He nodded before turning back to Lucy, rolling his
eyes, "Say what you want... but I think I've been around girls who are drunk
more than you have, and what they will do when drunk." He told her, leaving
out the part that he had been the one to treat them to drinks and occasionally
take them home...

Devi laughed at Gray, "Oh, I'm sorry... It's not like you randomly strip without
knowing it regardless of the circumstance or anything." She told him, rolling
her eyes, making the point.

Loki shrugged, "What can I say? It suits me." He winked as he watched as
Jason went to talk to Theodore. "He's always been like that though." He
shrugged as he watched him, he was always ready for actions.

ooc: your layout is awsome, just sayin biggrin

Gray, at this point of time still has his hand resting on Juvia's head as his smile remains etched on his face. His smile eventually faded when he heard Devi's remark about not being the guild's bully. "Like saying that is going to make any difference," responded Gray with a doubtful tone as he noticed Devi laughing at him as she delivered her sarcastic remark. "At least I don't think using someone else's pants as a flag is a good idea, you little prankster!" retorted Gray with a somewhat annoyed expression as his anger led to him ruffle Juvia's hair by constantly stroking in wildly due to him forgetting that his hand remains on top of her head.

Theodore, at this moment, appears lost as he is uncertain how to respond to such a situation unfolding in front of him as he noticed Evalina pouting at him due to his earlier comment about her being childish alongside Yukio. Before he could say anything, he caught a glimpse of Yukio biting the top of Taura's head like a squirrel nibbling on a nut. A sweat drop could be seen forming at the back of his head in response to the weird sight that unfolded in front of him. More sweat formed when he witness Taura shocking Yukio with lightning magic causing him to release his grip on her. Theodore was at a lost for words until he is face to face with Taura who appeared to be shrugging at his comment which is met by his emotionless gaze. "Umm...well put, my radiant Taura. However, no matter how you see it, it will remain as fact that it's children bickering or the fact that this guild is somewhat...special," responded Theodore with an awkward tone as well as disbelief that someone like Taura would find this normal.

Theodore's attention is then diverted to Jason who appears enthusiastic about partaking in the quest which he just explained to him earlier. "Glad to see your eagerness to participate. Just keep in mind that this quest is dangerous and make sure you're well prepared for this task," advised Theodore with a polite tone.

Theodore then heard someone laugh, which seemed somewhat adorable to him as he quickly shade his face with the tip of his hat quickly at the sight of Rein, whom he realized is the one with the adorable laugh. "Then you must have some trouble adjusting the first time as well, lovely Rein? As for me, it's a bit difficult to adapt to such a lively environment like this," responded Theodore with a somewhat mixture between a polite and nervous tone in his bid to avoid a face to face confrontation with Rein. Suddenly, his thoughts is filled with images of red as what appears to be children are seen falling onto the ground motionless as puddles of blood formed around them. Theodore's mind snapped back to reality upon hearing Rein's inquiry. "Indeed I don't belong to any guild. However, I don't deserve to be in a guild. Thank you for kind and generous offer though, Lovely Rein," replied Theodore with a somewhat sad tone as he fixed his sights on a pouting Evalina.

"Please don't take it to heart, fair Evalina. If it is any consolation, I think you look cute pouting like that," called back Theodore with an awkward tone.

"Well..Okay natsu" Happy said with dread tone, but quickly brightened up, smiling. Partly to cheer himself up ,and partly to cheer Natsu and his friend . "-Good bye, and Good Luck!"Happy exclaimed in cheery and bright tone, trying to put up a happy grin. "I'll be going now!"Happy waved a friendly wave and wagging his tail behind him, he trailed toward Lucy."Luuuuucy?" He asked in a unsure tone, as if he wasn't sure if he can talk to her while she seemed to be busy..chatting.

Angie blushed but quickly recovered, smiling as if she was greatly embarrassed to be off key.With a sigh she turned to Lucid . "T-thank you.." Angie trailed off wondering again as his age seemed to change so causally.Not the appearance, just the aura he has. "How old are you exactly..?"She asked in a curious tone cocking her head in a questioning gesture as she tried to figure his age out, scanning him. She turned toward Celina, for any clues.She seemed to know him for a long time..

Will gave a somewhat childish grin as he stuck out his tongue with sarcastic expression.. "Oh, you aren't the bully but just helping out those who are in need? "He asked with gleeful smirk, happy to get on her nerves. It just felt..so fun? He turned to see Celina who seemed to support his idea.He raised his eyesbrow at Devi, meaning 'see?' "Thank you, Celina..for telling me so kindly when we might leave. I wish we can get out there fast though.."He let out a sigh, feeling utter ably bored..but than Devi helped him to be amused.

Yami felt a chill go down her spine, she quickly turned to the door and silently asked herself "Ive felt this before... but where?". She turned back to inside the guild, sweat dripped down her face "why am I so scared?" she asked herself. She took in a deep breath and sat down in a chair. "I guess it was nothing," she thought.

Gajeel stood up "see ya later Loki," he said walking away. He walked towards Nathan "Hi there," he said looking at him. he stood beside him "your new here arn't you?" what do you think of this guild," he asked.

Gray was busy scolding Devi for her mischievous behavior earlier when he noticed her grinning at him with her a smirk like smile as she skipped off, ignoring him in the process. "Don't ignore me while I'm scolding you!" exclaimed Gray angrily as he sounds like a father reprimanding his young daughter while anger veins from around his forehead. "Tsk...What am I going to do with that girl...." sighed Gray with an annoyed tone while hanging his head low while scratching the back of his head only for him to realize something as he jerk his head upwards. "Geh! Why am I brooding over this like she is my daughter?" remarked Gray with confusion as he placed both hands on both sides of his head and ruffle his hair in frustration, letting go of Juvia's head as he went.

Gray then heard heard Juvia's shy comment that he calm himself down only for him to display a surprised expression on his face. Right before him is the result of his constant ruffling as Juvia's hair is now a big mess that calling it a bird's nest is an understatement. "Ah! Sorry Juvia! I didn't mean to get your hair all messed up like that," remarked Gray with a panicked tone as he attempts to comb her hair with his hands.

Theodore at this moment had his eyes set on Evalina and Yukio who appears to have settled their differences as Evalina giggled at Yukio's gesture. "You're much welcome my dear Evalina," responded Theodore with a polite tone which is accompanied by a bow. "Rest assured that we will be heading out soon. Please be patient my dear as there are still some loose ends that the others must tie up before proceeding," replied Theodore as he tries to coax an embarrassed Evalina.

His coaxing only got him so far as he is met with a vigorous reply from Jason, who appears to be displaying enthusiasm, indicated in his grin and raised fist. "Glad you understand the enormity of the situation. In fact, you might be more understanding and down to earth than say Grantes," commented Theodore with a polite tone as he compares Jason's enthusiasm with Grantes' blood lust. "Why am I comparing their personalities?" thought Theodore as he is confused with his own words as he never bothered with trifle matters before. "We will as soon as everyone is ready," replied Theodore with a slight nod to both Jason and Nathan.

Theodore then heard the comment from Master Makarov who appears to had been listening in on his conversation with Rein and is now delivering his wise advice to him. "My heart?" questioned Theodore with curiosity as he place his hand on his chest while watching Master Makarov taking another sip of his drink as he diverts his attention to another guild member. "If only I still have one," muttered Theodore under his breath with what appears to be sadness in his tone but would later shake it off. "I thank you kindly for your wise wisdom, Master Makarov. I will keep it in mind," responded Theodore with a polite tone.

Theodore's conversation with the Master is done as he noticed Rein smiling at him which prompted him to hide his face once again with the tip of his hat as it shadows half of his face. "Indeed. However, I don't think crazy would be a suitable word to describe my observation of the guild. In fact, it might be an understatement. you might be the most sane of the guild," noted Theodore with a slightly nervous tone whose comment appears to be a joke if not for his awkward social skills. Theodore then tilted his hat upward as his emotionless face meet Rein's playful wink and laughter. Somehow, he felt warmth radiating from that very gesture, a feeling he felt a long time ago as though he had met her somewhere before. It was then that Theodore noticed her disappointed look at his comment of not wanting to join a guild. Theodore felt at a lost of what to do in the face of such disappointment. "It's not that I don't want to join. It's just that I just can't do that right now. Not until I settle something first," noted Theodore with a somewhat sad tone as he place his hand on her head. "However, I will consider joining this guild for your sake. You are kind and I would enjoy your company a lot," responded Theodore with a reassuring tone. "For now, we got a job to do," noted Theodore as he heads for the door.

As Yami felt anxiety creep up on her, she didn't notice an approaching Theodore as he now stands next to her. "It's okay to feel fear as I understand your reason why," remarked Theodore with polite tone as he points outside where a storm cloud fizzles with lightning in a far distance which could be observed despite the distance. "You're sweating. Here, wipe your sweat with this," offered Theodore as he hands Yami a handkerchief with a light blue border motif with the initial R embroidered in the middle, which Rein would have recognized as it is in plain sight for her to see.
