Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lin chewed on her lower lip, if it weren't so serious it would be funny.

"Maybe they don't know how to wash," Lin murmured softly, "Though I do imagine their work keeps them distracted...."

She also had to wonder what the brothers would do without their sister. After all, what would happen if their sister was the first to marry?

"That's good to know," Lin chuckled a bit.

It was good Sy could find humour in all of this. Though even Lin found the whole thing just a bit amusing.

"I wonder how Andarien is doing," Lin murmured, the conversation had made time fly and she knew he had been a bit ify going in.

"Earendil has been, whenever we stop long enough," Lin replied.

Traveling made lessons difficult, and Earendil was the one to teach since he was probably the most qualified next to his brother to teach it at the moment.

"We were both thinking one or two dozen arrows while we're here," Lin explained, "A group of us are traveling around the continent, and it probably is best to get more arrows while we're here before continuing on."

Since this place was of high quality and who knew where they would end up next.

Miyuki in the meantime was intently studying one of the quivers, as if she was thinking about something. She had one hand gripping a tail to prevent the rest of them from swishing around. The kitsune leaned over and tried to peer in, as if peering down at something despite the quiver being empty.

She had overheard her parents talk about more arrows but wondered how much a quiver could hold. A good amount, but one would run out eventually she figured. You couldn't have a bigger quiver it would be too heavy and cumbersome and no matter how many you put in, you'd run out eventually.

Thinking for a moment she pattered over to the arrow shafts and got a good look at them, and the pattered back over to the quivers. She kept doing this for a while, as she muttered something about energy, transfer, triggers and something about not practical.

Lin quickly gave her own information, but had a bit more trouble with the tips. She had only ever used field tips, since that was the type the clan that taught her used. So she wasn't sure if she would need other types or not for traveling.

As she was explaining this to Tanil, Miyuki seemed to have made a decision and whirled around to talk to her parents. Of course, she reasoned, a stone and as basket would make a good first experiment, but if she was right then she would want the real thing to experiment on when it was time.

She waited until her mother was done though.

"Mom, ada," Miyuki finally spoke up.

Lin turned and noticed the gleam in her daughter's eye. That had her slightly worried and slightly curious because that was the same look Shiro (or even Andarien) got when an idea grabbed them.

"Yes?" she asked.

Miyuki gave her mother a foxy grin, "Can I have a quiver and some field arrows to experiment with. Maybe some that are suited to Andarien since I can't shoot?"

The first word out of Lin's mouth was "Whyyyy?"

Miyuki smiled widely and went into a long winded theory about magical energy and kinetic energy usage to trigger runes that were set up like a point to point system, along with something to help with storage. However she did go off on a tangent and did say storage might not be an issue if she could get the array to work and part way through Lin realized that her daughter was actually geeking out (over runes no less) and stopped her.

"In a way I can understand," she interrupted.

Miyuki blinked and pointed to an arrow, "I want to make that," she pointed to a quiver, "Be teleported back into that, after being shot from a bow. It's less arrow wastage that way."
