Welcome to Gaia! ::

Amane frowned alomst overwhelmed by the words being thrown at her all at once This can't be good the only one I can really remember how to spell is the first one she thought to herself trying not to panic noticing both Zadina and Ardie appearing to be doing ok on the test.

Seph smiled but blushed a little realising what she just said aloud "It's not that I don't like them or anything but would I rather spend time with you or be constantly interrupted by lots of little things from Alpha's ramblings to Ivy's mischief" she explained enjoing the ride and putting her hands up in the air.

Hebal frowned grabbing hold of the vine and pulled it steady for her at the other side "You have to let go silly unless you don't think you have enough swing then you have to kick yourself further forward on the swing back, how about we try again" she smiled lifting Mari off the vine.

Alpha grinned pulling out of his pocket a few photos that had been taken in Tricasia "Hmm If you think it's nice now, I bet you'll love some of these pics" he chuckled showing him a picture of Hebal, Mari, Satoshi and Gil standing in f ront of the glass castle he annd his friends had made.

Oassu raised an eyebrow "Pleease Felina, you know I wouldn't get caught I'm too good for that you know, but what day do we need to go all poshy?" he asked her.

Jenna laughed lightly laying the remainder of her fish on her tummy and lieing back "Oassu can't do posh for the life of him, you'll need to housetrain him pretty well to get him ready for ceremonial events" she said.

Gil smiled "Good job catching Yenytai you ok?" he asked her patting Satoshi on the back "We'll stop for some lunch after this, we have quite a good lead right now we don't wanna squander it" he said.

Barbaros nodded covering the pit with leaves "They are very nice but you shouldn't keep such pervy pictures on you, ya?" he said stretching once he'd done it "The girls would slap you for this" he chuckled.

Zadina frowned seeing Amane struggle and shuffled his paper over to the desk "Psst Amane, take a look" he whispered to her smiling.

Mari giggled gripping the vine and taking another shot at it before leaping off and landing beside Hebal before posing happily "YEAH! I totally did it didn't I Hebal?" she asked excitedly bouncing on the spot.

Itaka smiled "Thats fine if you want spend more time with me" he said lifting Seph over his head and around him so he could kiss her "I just love to spend time with you too, but these guys are our friends, we can't just ditch them." he said kissing her again "You should cherish the time we have now alone" he said licking her horns affectionately.

Satoshi nodded picking Yenytai up and placed her on her shoulders for the remainder of the crossing "Yep I can wait a while for lunch, we have already had pleanty fruit and sushi too in my case... I don't think this is the safest river crossing there could be but I kinda like stepping stones, they look more natural than bridges"she commented laughing at Yenytai bouncing up and down shouting "Yaaay riding the Satshe cycle is fun" while pulling the ninjas hair lightly.

Felina smirked putting her arm around Oassu but almost dropped her fish "Maybe one day a year around christmas for a few hours, I have a big family. All you would really have to do is throw your shoulders back a bit and keep your chin up then if you say something people can't like we can just blame it on the language barrier" she giggled rubbing his shoulders.

Hayate smiled taking the second photo and examining it "Hmm... this one isn't so bad but I didn't think Hebal took all that many photos but this ones nice enough so I think I'll keep it. I don't think you have any of Jenna Seph or Itaka because they were busy elsewhere. Anyway the trap is set if you want to move on" he added pocketing the photo.

Amane winked at Zadina placing her head up a few seconds later pretending to have worked the spellings out herself. She glanced around noticing so far that out of the ten of them only four had finished so far. she then giggled writing "Thanks I owe you one" on a small slip of paper and tossed it onto the elfs desk. Miss Chi glanced up just missing the note passing "You have half a minute left class"

Hebal jumped up and down clapping her hands at Mari seeing her perfect the vine swinging "Hehe you've got it. I'll show you one more thing then we'll move on" she told her jumping a further 30 foot up the tree. She then swung on a vine and let go allowing herself to drop back down then grabbed the first vine they had previously swung on to get back to the other tree "Hehe I would like to see you do that one"

Seph nodded flapping her wings happily almost taking off "Yeah it's nice to be able to do your own thing. Right now we aren't too mission heavy to need to stick together so much. And since we are alone, can I ask you something? How did you get into the thief business? You always struck me as a goody two shoes" she asked resting her head on his shoulder.

Alpha hesitated moving to a spot where the sun could be seen shining through the trees "Hmm... just a guess based on the position of the sun we have at least another hour and a half before the barrier shift. May as well get a good book" he yawned stretching his legs out.

Oassu smiled shivering comfortably "Yeah but if I'm going to live with Elves I want to be able to speak your language" he said finishing his fish "That way I can help teach our kids" he said.

Jenna frowning gulping down the rest of her fish "Right shouldn't we get moving on now?" she said dressing up again "We've been a bit lazy and this river is a prime spot for fiends to come" she said watching the edges of the trees.

Gil nodded continuing his stroking of Satoshi's legs "You are very fun but I hope I'm fun too" he said chuckling as he spotted Yenytai doing a little dance "You seem to have enjoyed that Yenytai you ready to go?" he asked

Barbaros sighed "I'm not equipped to hunt fiends do what you want" he said "But you didn't trike me as much of a reader Alpha" he said.

Zadina nodded sitting back and smiling at Amane knowingly as he waited for the time to run out.

Mari frowned "That looks super hard plus you know I can't get up that high" she pouted folding her arms huffishly.

Itaka walked along carrying Seph in front of him as she clung to him "I just got a little tired of travelling around and I was going through a little phase then, started robbing banks and stuff was pretty fun but I heard if you joined a guild you got certain priveliges and right so I formed one up and used it as a front for my activities" he chuckled caressing and kissing Seph happily.

Felina smiled back glancing over at her fish "And soon you will be able to speak my language, you already know your first phrase plus we can teach our kids both languages. Still we might need to wait a little while longer to move, my fish is still only halfway through the cooking progress" she sighed.

Yenytai nodded adjusting her clothes then taking her friends hands again "Is Yennytai fun too?" she asking skipping along sticking her tongue out at a bunch of not so friendly nymphs. Satoshi smiled stroking Gil's arm in return "Yeah Yenytai is fun too as is Gil but he usually hides away in a giant tin can" she teased.

Hayate smiled following Alpha through the woods "Relax a little I was just being a bit more accurate. I believe you have read loads of cooks but I do sort of agree with Barbaros. I would have thought you learned loads of stuff through trial and error and personal experience" he answered deciding not to comment on the yeti.

Amane nodded leaning in to Zadina "We had show and tell like the way you desribed it until the new village leader took charge. Apparently we needed more team engagement and had to make an effort to get to know each and every classmate, it's stupid really" she whispered onlyt just catching her teacher assign her and Zadina to go with the viera she earlier identified as Poppy.

Seph grinned returning Itaka's kiss happily "Yeah I know what you mean but I still have a lot of interrogating to do. You have had a lot of time to do all kinds of stuff and I want to know all about it" she whispered nibbling a little on his ear "Did you spend most of the 3 centuries just stealing things? And did nobody notice the fact you weren't aging?"

Hebal smiled spinning around dancing on the tree "Not exactly but it was still close enough to be acceptable so congratulations" she cheered almost spinning off the tree branch clumsily. "Oopsie that was a close one, next time I am going to teach you how to play tree parachuiting without a parachuite" she giggled pulling a funny face at Ivy.

Alpha smiled hesitating to pick out what he considered to be hgis favourite books "I like books on science and technology mainly. Also building stuff, maths, geography, graphic novels and the odd magazine. I learned the basics of life through experience but I liked learning less important stuff too"

Oassu smiled breathing fire across Felina's fish cooking it just right "Jenna here is quite the linguist she knows a fair few languages." he said "She was the negotiator in the guild so she needed to know them" he said.

Jenna nodded puffing her chest out proudly "Yeah I knew Viera, Nu Mou Agralian, Elvish and even a little Demon tongue." she said mounting Boco.

Gil chuckled "I'm sure your very strong Yenytai" he said before stroking Satoshi's behind gently "You don't look too bad yourself" he chuckled "But unless you'd rather see me mauled up I'm still wearing my armour in battle" he told her.

Barbaros shrugged "Graphic novels ain't for me, I'm a fan of those there espionage novels ya?" he said pretending to point a gun ahead of him "Like James Pond and the like."

Zadina nodded moving over to sit with Poppy "Umm Hiya I'm Zadina" he said introducing himself to Poppy while indicating for Amane to come sit with them "I'm a friend of Amane's who's visiting just now" he said brightly.

Itaka chuckled "You know if you want something to put your mouth around I've got something tastier for you" he said brushing her hair out of his face as she nibbled "And no I only set up the thief business in the last 50 years or so. You may have heard of me before, a legend told to children called the White Blade of a white-haired man skilled with a blade who reappeared at various times throughout history accompanied by death" he said licking Seph's ear "I laughed once when I heard a mother tell her child once the White Blade would get him so yea I got seen but I kept moving so no one would start a witch hunt or something" he shrugged.

Mari frowned "That doesn't sound safe at all but you be careful Hebal I don't want you to get hurt" she said hugging her once she landed safely giggling as Ivy pulled a silly face back at Hebal.
