Welcome to Gaia! ::

Felina laighed quickly slipping through the bush with Oassu before Zadina and Hayate had the chance "Silly pun but I do keep offering to play for you but I think both of us keep forgetting about that one. Never mind the village itself is really pretty with all this snow" she commented glancing around at the buildings.

Satoshi came to a stop waiting for the others to go through the bushes "I think the 6 arms are awesome if it makes you feel better, Terrato clearly agrees with me. Do you like the music?" she asked him curiously standing on her tiptoes to see who was playing "Second in command is a pretty good position I didn't think you were that high up. You'll have to watch out for Seph if she marries Itaka and becomes a member of your guild, she can be very bossy when she wants to be" she joked.

Hayate nodded stepping down the path into the village made by Alpha "Is it only 3 years? I thought she said it was longer but what do I know. Still it's a long time to be away from direct family for most people. The music is kinda nice around here don't you think?"

Hebal giggled pointing to a bungalow at the otherside of the bandstand "I'll tell you another day. Thats my house, I got it really cheap because the music is being played so often outside. Amane and mum live elsewhere so would you like to go to my house or theirs first?" she asked turning around to Oassu "Well theres a couple of nice resturants, theres a spa, a pub, lots of trees a golf course and some ancient ruins"

Seph frowned lightly hitting Itaka's chest with her tail "You so don't believe me do you? My mum taught me piano when I was a lot younger to try and solve my anger issues but I am sure you can make a fortune from eggs provided you can guarentee them a good colour. Sonds like a good place to retire, well thought out of you"

Alpha grinned listening in to Hebal mentioning that there was a spa in the village "She told Satoshi and Mari a little while ago and I was bored so kinda listened in a little until they started discussing more personal things. Better speak up now if you want to be meeting Amane next" he hinted to Zadina.

Oassu laughed "Yeah we can have a little alone time to ourselves but we gotta remember we're on a serious mission here," he said "We'll talk about it at Hebal's house where there's less people" he said glancing at the Viera.

Gil chuckled as the performers looked on "Whats their problem?" he shrugged "But we can find our own ways to entertain ourselves but like Oassu said we have a job to do and since your a master hunter ninja maybe you can help out" he said.

Barbaros shook his head "No of course they exist outside Agralia but Agralia had a big guild of them all gone now" he sighed longingly.

Zadina nodded taking Alpha and Hayate's advice he stepped up to Hebal "Hey Miss Hebal? Can we please go to see Amane...I mean go to your mothers house first? You'll want to deliver that cake won't you?" he said.

Mari laughed "Really cheap is good besides the music outside is also a good thing you got a great deal on it" she said swaying with the music watching the musicians.

Itaka chuckled "You can join me there maybe but I'd like to know more about these ruins, is there monsters there that need a whooping?" he asked Hebal.

Jenna nodded in agreement "Yeah I could use the workout, a little experience never hurt anyone" she grinned.

Felina blushed a little nodding her head at Oassu "Yeah your right sorry. I guess I just got a bit carried away with it being such a special day and all. We can discuss the job at Hebal's house like you said but be warned, I still want to take you out for dinner later at the very least" she insisted applauding the band while they stopped for a short break.

Satoshi shrugged ignoring the viera looking at them "I dunno, they either recognise you or they just haven't seen people or a different sex relationship for a long time" she guessed rubbing one of his arms "Only all gone for now. I mean I bet there were pleanty others who weren't happy with Alex taking over. But that reminds me why do you think Itaka won't go back to his previous lifestyle?"

Hayate yawned putting a couple of silver coins in the same bucket as Alpha "Hmm I am still somewhat curious about these ruins. What exactly are they meant to be ruins of, like a castle or something. Also where in the forest can we expect to find unicorns" he whispered glancing around to make sure nobody was listening in.

Seph yawned steering her dancing chocobo away from the band which immediately began to play again realising their audience was starting to shrink "Well not all things that spawn monsters are tough but even if it's not we could keep it alive for an extra long workout unless the monsters really suck."

Alpha shrugged pattiting hos belly "Why would I need to look my best for Hebal's mum? I look fine as it is. You look fine too unless you want to look really smart but I don't think that would be what Amane goes for but since when did you care about how you looked in front of girls he chuckled following Hebal down a side street.

Hebal smiled turning around to face Hayate "Oh yeah I forgot you like looking at animals and stuff. Unicorns run around all over the forest based on our findings so there is no good place for animal spotting" she answered hoping if someone were listening in they wouldn't get too suspicious. "Of course she will love the cake since it was made by me... wait a minute thats not right. She'll probably eat with caution since I am a terrible cook" she giggled.

Oassu smiled "Sure fine fine, I don't need to pay for everything when I've got a lovely princess beside me" he said stepping up to kiss her and laughing when Cid jumped onto his shoulder "and her noble pet too" he said patting the bunny.

Zadina nodded in agreement dismissing the mirror "Thats right Hayate! Hebal's mother is a nice old lady and your a nice old man you can fall in love and stuff!" he said clapping his hands together to indicate how simplistic he thought it was. "And it's nice to look good for anyone!" he scolded Alpha

Gil raised an eyebrow as the squirrels ran past "Tame little guys ain't they?" he said stepping aside to let them past before cuddling Satoshi "Hmm well wonder why they live separately...it seems odd to me" he chuckled "Are we men not cool?" he asked Satoshi.

Barbaros frowned "Well...you'd think but any thieves who disagreed got killed, in fact when he originally took over the guild Agralian soldiers stormed the secret guild hall, some rat leaked us out and those who didn't die were forced to join, I wasn't there at the time but I hear it was pretty brutal" he shook his head "But nevermind that, and maybe when your married you'll feel differently bout love" he chuckled.

Itaka grinned "I could give you an extra long workout later if you wanted but theres no point in holding back if it does suck, I don't want to risk any danger especially when your still recovering. Besides don't you want to practice flying?" he suggested.

Mari laughed "Well she'll be presently surprised with your handiwork then, besides you did all the important stuff like beating it I just gave you the ingredients!" she chirped "Whats your mothers name by the way?" she asked making her ears wiggle happily.

Felina luaghed happily placing Cid on the top of her head "Yeah where would we be if it weren't for our little mascot Cid. Just think about today as being may turn to pay for the meal since it was you who payed last" she smiled waving to Amane "Hey there little missy, I am Felina" she introduced herself.

Hayate shrugged laughing a little at Amane's greeting "She's a cute little thing isn't she? Looks completely like her mother but why don't you help pick her things up" he whispered to Zadina pointing to a little basket lying down on the floor with flowers falling out of it "But Alpha if you were to take care of your appearence more than maybe the girls wouldn't be so harsh to you" he teased.

Satoshi laughed at Amane then turned around and turned to Barbaros trying to have a more serious tone "Well there you go. Just because somebody is forced into doing something it doesn't mean they are ok with it, just that they are afraid to be open about disagreeing" she argued kissing Gil on the neck "Well it's not that you aren't cool its just these people have different values and all that stuff."

Amane blinked straightening herself up before reaching out to shake one of Gil's hands "Hey there Mr. Has anyone told you that you have loads of arms like a spiderman? Can you lick any of your elbows?" she asked him curiously "I already know who most of you are and can guess, miss purple bat girl is sephy, big scary guy is Itaka, the girl with the big boobs is Satoshi, the pirate is Hayate, the big red demon is Alpha, little elfy is Zadina" she stated proudly shaking each ones hand in order she mentioned them before eventually getting to Oassu then Felina then the strangers. "You don't look like anything I heared about" she frowned looking up at Mari.

Hebal giggled tickling the tops of Aamane's ears affectionately "That was very good and I like the little descriptions you gave. You must have read my letters loads to remember what they look like. But miss Mari is playing a game while we are in the village, she has to convince everyone including your gran that she is a real viera. You help her out for me ok?" she explained.

Seph snickered listening to Amane's descriprions "Aww Itaka isn't that scary once you get to know him... well maybe he does look a little like that when he wakes up" she joked ruffling his hair. "If we have a little girl hopefully she'll look just like me which I hope is what you consider as just as pretty"

Alpha snickered shaking Amane's hand when she came to him "Nice to meet you miss. You look a lot like your mother particulaly with the hair and eyes. Anyway if your wondering where your flowers are Zadina picked them all up for you" he informed her before making a loud "Yarr!" at Hayate.
