Felina raised her eyebrow at Oassu letting go of him to enter the bar and bow to the bouncer. "In that case I'll give you a little special treatment later provided you behave yourself in here" she flirted looking up at the building. "Though I have to admit this isn;t the sort of place I'm used to visiting" she whispered.
Corella frowned looking up at the sky then at the building. "Sorry guys but I better get back to the palace now. I'll see you all tomorrow morning before you leave" she told them waving and giving Zadina a big hug before running off. "Notice how quick I can move now" she called back to Zadina while dashing down the street.
Satoshi waved at both Corella and the bouncer scratching her head "She was an odd elf but really cute. You happy to have had someone your age to play with?" she asked Zadina before stepping into the bar to look around for Jenna and Barbaros.
Hayate nodded at the baanga making his way inside " Bangaa are nice folk provided you don't do something to annoy them like calling them certain names." he added on in agreement with Hebal before joining Alpha to order a drink.

Itaka nodded ordering himself a drink "Hey lighten up, even rocks have soft spots" he chuckled poking Seph.
Oassu winked at Felina "Can't wait for that" he said stepping into the pub "You've not been to a pub like this before?" he asked hanging his hat on a hatstand and taking Cid into his arms.
Itaka glanced at Felina and Oassu "Is it just me or are those two....y'know being a little more adult with each other" he whispered to Seph happily taking his drink and going to a table where the others sat down at.
Zadina waved and hugged Corella goodbye "Goodbye Corella! I'll see you later!" he said happily before stepping inside "I missed her so much its so nice to have a playmate again" he told Satoshi happily as he drifted over to the table settling down. A Bangaa waitress brought him a small mug of orange juice with a smily face on it "Thar ya go sweetie" she said planting a kiss on his head from her snout. "Anything you need just call," she said before meandering off.
Mari giggled at Zadina's little mug "Looks like one girl likes you at least," she said sitting down with a bottle of wine. She took Sophia out of the bag and let her wander around on the table quietly. "You reckon it's alright to let Ivy out here? It's nighttime now so she should be awake" she said peeking into the bag at the pixie.

Seph hesitated looking over at Oassu and Felina while ordering herself a soft drink. "You know I think you're right about them being more adult " she whispered back sitting down next to Itaka "So can you see either Barbaros or Jenna anywhere?" she asked looking around.
Alpha snickered downing his first glass in one before ordering a 2nd drink and sitting back down on the other side of Seph. "I think Oassu was like that deep down anyway. It's Felina who is surprising me with the sudden increase in flirting" he whispered nudging her in the arm.
Hebal giggled hopping around next to Zadina "I think the bangaa likes you, you little stud" she teased reaching out for an invisible glass which suddenly reminded her that she forgot to order. "Say Mari if i give you the money could you pwease get me a beer. Preferably in one of the cups Zadina has?" she asked looking at the smiley face.

Felina shook her head ordering a glass of orange juice along with a bowl of water for Cid "no I haven't. I'm more used to all those fancy pubs and resturants but I'm open to trying new things so long as I'm with you" she told him putting her order on the table and taking Cid from Oassu's arms.
Satoshi laughed sitting down with a bottle of sake in her hand "Sorry can't see your friends yet. Anyway whats so special about the cup? You won't get a pint in there" she pointed out lifting the object up then put it back in front of Zadina. "They do food here too and I don't think this is the best place to release a non-housetrained sprite" she grinned picking up the bar menu from the table centre.
Hayate glanced around the room before sitting down by the rest of the group holding a pint glass of some sort of blue beverage. "The others might not even be here yet considering we are early" he pointed out picking up Sophia and putting her down by the bowl of water so that she could share a drink with Cid.

Mari sighed "Ok but I'm at least taking her out the bag" she said putting her jar on the table where a sleepy Ivy was beginning to stir. She giggled at Hebal's request "Certainly Hebal!" she said giving her a hug before walking up to the bar.
Sophia blinked at Cid a little before sitting down and drinking from the bowl.
Oassu beamed "New things are good, gotta get as much experience as you can!" he cheered drinking his beer "Well fancy pubs and restaurants are nice but these places are more friendly I find" he said happily.
Itaka smirked "Let them be more adult, they could use it" he said getting up "Come to think of it I don't see Barbaros anywhe-"
"HEY! Brudda! Nice to see you again!" Barbaros said hugging Itaka from behind and lifting him off the ground "Hahahah glad you could make it" he said sitting down. Gilgamesh also came down the stairs and pulled up a seat beside him "Greetings warriors" he said raising a hand to the waitress who automatically dumped a flagon of ale in front of him.
Itaka sighed catching his breath "Nice to see you too, ugh is Jenna not around?" he asked sitting down by Seph again.
"She's still sleeping after the pollenfest so tell me how was the temple?" Barbaros asked leaning in.
Zadina scratched his head "Studs go on shoes don't they?" he asked Hebal before shrugging and drinking from his mug "Well its nice to be liked but that kiss was a little rough" he said rubbing his face turning a little red as well.

Alpha raised his glass to greet Barbaros before gulping down a third of his drink. "Good evening. The temple wasn't all that helpfull as all we really did was take a look around the mage training school and visit some old person who couldn't give us many straight answers" he grunted slouching down into his seat.
Seph sat up waving to Gilgamesh and Barbaros "I'm surprised you're willing to put up with us this evening" she rearked to the swordsman scratching her head. "The stupid old lady threw a blackboard eraser at me for apparently being ungrateful" she pouted taking a small sip from her drink.
Hebal giggled hugging Mari back then glanced over at the bar. "Thank you Mari" she called then turned her attention back to Zadina "Hehe it has another meaning too but I'll have to explain that one to you when you're older" she whispered stealing a tiny bit of his drink.

Felina smiled taking a large drink from her glass. "They can be but they can also be more dangerous. One day I'll smarten you up and I'll take you to some new fancy resturant" she giggled thinking about some of the outfits he could wear in future. "Jenna reacted to the pollen was worse than that of most people, does she get bad hayfever or something" she asked him slightly concerned.
Satoshi sighed putting the menu down quickly realising that she couldn't read the language it had been written in. She waved then moved her chair towards where Gilgamesh sat so that Mari would have more room to sit in. "A stud is just like a slang term for a ladies man" she informed Zadina with a snicker. "So was it Barbaros who convinced you to come sit with us since I doubt you particulaly want to see us" she asked turning to Gilgamesh with a smirk.
Hayate nodded at the two new arrivals while taking his hat off and throwing it onto the hatstand by the door. "Heh just be grateful Therora only threw something at you. She could do a lot more damage with her staff" he told Seph cheerfully while he put his feet up.

Barbaros laughed "Don't worry about Jenna, shes just worn out from the day, she loves a good sleep y'know?" he said taking a drink.
Gilgamesh shrugged raising his helmet's visor revealing a grey-skinned man with a strong chin and a ginger beard "Revenge leaves a bitter taste on the tongue, if I am to be fighting alongside you fellows, I should at least make an effort to know you" he said taking a drink "Besides you fought bravely and well, I can respect that" he nodded patting Enkidu who had sat beside him.
Oassu shook his head "They aren't really dangerous if you mind you manners but hey I am smart enough no?" he said brushing his red mages outfit down "Stylish as anything I could fit in a fancy restaurant no bother" he said "Jenna's got the constitution of an ox, nothing makes her sick, ever" he told her.
Zadina blushed "I'm no ladies man" he said playing with his cup "But its nice to see you sir Gilgamesh, I've read all your tales!" he chirped "Like when you fought the Necrophobe and defeated the Sorceress' Knight Seifer" he said his enthusiasm bringing a smile to Gilgamesh's face.
Mari returned with a cup for Hebal with beer in it "There you go Hebal now don't go stealing any of little Zadina's drink!" she teased cradling her own glass and taking a drink before stroking Sophia.
Itaka grunted settling down again "She's going to ask if its ok for us to research longevity items and if the King approves then she's gonna tell us something about them" he said taking a drink.
Barbaros laughed "Beating around the bush ya? I know too many an old timer who likes to ramble" he chuckled before glancing shrewdly at Itaka "So....Longevity items..." he said taking a sip "Why would you be interested in them?" he asked

Alpha twitched and pointed his thumb over to Oassu and Felina "It's not for us, it's for those two over there who are worrying about their different aging rates" he explained keeping a close watch on gilgamesh. "Still I wouldn't say no to living another 1000 years myself if theres stuff left over."
Seph rolled her eyes at Hayate "It's still made of wood" she grumbled not wanting to admit she was slightly impressed by how far he had thrown his hat. "It's not the only problem those two are having. Not all of Felina's family approve of their relationship" she added leaning back against her seat
Hebal cheered and clapped her hands together as Mari presented her with the cup "Yaya and you got the cup I wanted and I wasn't stealing his drink. It was just quality control" she cheered giving Mari a hug before turning to Gilgamesh "Zadina is a big fan of yours"

Felina laughed running her hand through Oassu's hair "I think I could smarten you up a little more and since I have such good manners I guess I'll be fine here" she grinned leaning against his shoulder "It's good to hear Jenna is doing ok, she probably hasn't had so much time to sleep for a while"
Satoshi sighed going up to the bar to fetch another bowl of water then placed it on the floor for Enkidu to drink. "Zadina is a huge fan at that, speaks highly of you but so long as you don't cause too much trouble I don't mind you working with us for a while" she told Gilgamesh while petting Enkidu on the head.
Hayate took a sip of his drink deciding to drop the subject with Seph following Alpha's gaze to Oassu and Felina."At least she is beginning to get the king's support. Most people here kinda look down on them because they don't approve of other species relationships. Another potential problem is Felina doesn't seem to be all that keen on Jenna" he added lowering his voice.

Oassu smiled cuddling Felina "Yea she did come a long way to meet us, its a shame we can't go back just yet" he sighed "But I ain't in any mood to fight Alex anyway just yet....as bad as he is" he added.
Itaka's eyes flashed menacingly in Barbaros direction "Thats right Felina will outlive Oassu by ages as is so we're going to find something like that for them" he shrugged taking a drink.
Barbaros nodded poking Alpha and laughing "You'll have to wait your turn then if theres any left over then Itaka will need it to live as long as Seph" he said raising his glass to his lips and finishing his drink "But don't worry about Jenna, deep down she doesn't want to hurt Oassu, she won't try anything crazy" he said.
Gilgamesh smiled at Zadina and patted his head "You should have seen some of my other battles Seifer was nothing" he chuckled turning to Satoshi and Hebal "Well I am a warrior of some renown but please forgive me for attacking you before, Sir Alex had promised me some information on the whereabouts of the sword excalibur in exchange for your defeat," he said taking a drink "But it shall be a pleasure working with you" he said.
Mari hugged Hebal back and settled down again noting the newcomers at the table. "Nice to meet you again Barbaros" she chirped before leaning over to Hebal "Is Gilgamesh trustworthy?" she asked nervously.
Zadina giggled "Its an honour to meet a legend such as yourself Mr Gilgamesh," he stopped breathing and raised a hand to his mouth in excitement "Does this mean we shall be part of your stories from now on?" he asked excitedly

Seph smilled wrapping an arm around Itaka "Yeah us two will need something like that for Itaka. If all goes well the old lady said she would tell us how to make life prolonging items so maybe we could make our own one at the same time" she suggested cheerfully finishing most of her drink.
Alpha nodded getting up to fetch a bottle of sake "I can wait a while. Theres still 100 years left in me. I'm in great health too" he proudly told Barbaros patting his chest. He went over to the bar bringing back not one but two bottles. "I'm guessing you won't want some of this?" he snickered noticing Seph shudder at the sight of the sake.
Hebal hesitated examining Gilgamesh very carefully trying to sneak a peak of his face from under his helmet "I think we can trust him provided we are a little cautious" she whispered back to Mari. "In a few years time there will be pleanty stories about our group so we don't really need to be a huge part of his" she told Zadina cheerfully "Say Mr.Gilgamesh why not take your helmet off completely, you'll boil in that"

Felina smiled back cuddling into Oassu and tickling his chest "I know what you mean. With out current ability level we wouldn't be able to do much for them. Let's get a little stronger before making a direct confrontation" she told him suddenly standing up "I'll be right back, Cid needs to go to the bathroom" she said picking up the rabbit and taking him outside.
Hayate snickered at Seph's reaction but chose not to say anyhing in front of Barbaros. "If you're offering the bottle around I won't say no to a small amount" he told Alpha finishing off his first drink. He then got up and went to the bar to order a second drink along with a packet of crisps.
Satoshi laughed taking a drink from her glass "It depends on how the story goes. If we make the next adventure into something exciting and memorable then yes I suppose we'll get to appear in part of his story" she told Zadina ruffling his hair.

Itaka smiled back patting Seph's arm "Yeah with us its gonna be long term or nothing" he said smirking slightly "Though normally I wouldn't need longer life to enjoy a long term relationship but this is pretty special" he said hugging into Seph "Shes worth it" he sighed happily finishing his drink and trying not to look at the sake.
Barbaros smirked "Ya man I'm glad, a couple hundred years is extremely long relationship" he winked at them "Most folk would get married after a few years but tell me Seph, whats so great that you see in Itaka?"
Itaka raised an eyebrow at this "Excuse me?"
Barbaros grinned "Whats so special about him, this kinda relationship is one of the hardest kinds ya?" he said.
Oassu sighed contentedly watching Felina walk away he turned his attention to Barbaros' conversation "Yeah these two are something else" he said "Soon they'll be just as soppy as me and Felina" he laughed.
Gilgamesh nodded "Fine I suppose" he said unclicking some locks at his
neck before lifting the helmet off revealing long ginger hair. He smiled "Thats a little better and yes I'm sure you will get included in my adventures next time someone compiles them," he said patting Zadina "But the Viera is right" he said pointing to Hebal and taking a drink "You should make your own stories, don't follow someone else"
Zadina nodded finishing his orange juice "Yes sir! I'll try very hard to make my own story" he said saluting Gilgamesh.
Mari smiled "Nice to meet you Sir Gilgamesh, I'm Mari, samurai from Tanzaku town" she chirped.
Gilgamesh scratched his chin "Funny, I didn't think Tanzaku town had women samurai" he shrugged taking a drink "Theres always a first" he said shaking her hand.

Seph snickered giving Oassu a good whack across the back of the head "If I ever become as soppy as you two I demand somebody shoots me" she stated shaking her head and taking a drink. She scratched her head turning back to Barbaros "Anyway theres a lot of things that make Itaka special. He can be fierce but has a softer side deep down, he's smart, reliable, energetic, extroverted a little bit smexy and open to experience to name a few of them" she purred leaning over Itaka to talk to Alpha "Mention the sake incident and your dead" she whispered to him.
Alpha snickered deliberately pushing the bottle of sake towards Seph and Itaka "Another bonus is they have been travelling around all day everyday for nearly a year and neither are sick of the sight of each other which hints they could put up with each other for a long time to come" he chuckled finishing off the first bottle he had ordered before making a start on the second by pouring some into Hayate's glass.
Hebal reached out over the table to shake Gilgamesh's hand. "Nice to have you working with us. I'm Hebal, owner of the armor shop in Olonan forest in the north east" she introduced herself patting Mari on the shoulder "Mari is a special samurai"
