Hebal patted Gil's arm then lept into the water making a huge splash "Thats the spirit Gil! A little water don't hurt anyone so you can do it Mari, I can dry you off afterwards since I think I have a towel packed somewhere if it bothers you" she cheered backstroking her way accross the river.
Alpha passed the parcel on estimating at least 6 more layers "When what happened? I did one play when I was like a pre teen but I don't really remember what it was on. I didn't enjoy it all that much, was really boring and all I got to do was say about 3 lines" he shrugged crossing his legs.
Seph smiled squeezing Itaka back "They use summoning jutsu remember? Plus I heared it's possible to summon things without being a summoner if you make a soul pact with a specific aeon but usually that comes with a major catch. See what would you do without me to educate you" she teased.
Ardie swung as high as she could swing in one minute then lept forward off the swings "Hehe you will just have to share a plant with one of us for a while. My newest plant is growing slowly but I do have a lovely set of violets sitting happily on my patch" she answered going back to the others giving Amane a push on the swing.
Amane grinned kicking her legs forward with the swing happily "Every member of the class has a little patch where we can grow plants and seeds. Mine has a small shrug spouting out of it along with loads of daisies and fire flowers. You can share my garden with me if you want."
Melanae yawned standing up on her swing "I have a larger patch of land to grow things but for my project I have to grow orange and lemon trees then collect the fruit to make into juice only the fruit isn't ripe enough yet for that bit"

Felina petted Cid placing him down on the ground allowing him to dance to the music "I would love to celebrate christmas, I like the idea behind it. We don't have a major amount of holidays, a total of 11 a year; one for each element plus new years day, Giorno Di Amour and the autumn feast"
Yenytai shook her head glancing up to make sure the squirrel had gone "Nah uh, squirrels steal Yenytai's winter food for themselves. Yenytai thinks Milly is a lovely pot. Yenytai and Milly look after eachother in hard times and have lots of fun" she shouted satisfied the critter had left them.
Satoshi rolled her eyes tiptoeing around a sleeping iron giant leaning against a tree "Yeah I use a summoning jutsu to bring up leviathan. Theres a special summoning scroll you need to sign in blood to be able to use the jutsu too and it's really quite a faff around when trying to train" she quietly lectured them.

Oassu smiled "Then we will celebrate it then but how many elements do you celebrate?" he asked patting Cid and he shuffled in a sort of dancey way.
Jenna chuckled "I'm sure Milly is a lovely pot, she must be lonely though, Magic Pots are very rare, her shyness too can't help" she said passing the parcel along.
Itaka shrugged "Still seems odd that there's so many ways of accessing summons." he said jumping slightly in surprise as Seph squeezed him "But what do you mean by Soul Pact Seph?" he asked.
Mari giggled "Alright alright sorry I said it" she said diving in after Hebal and swimming across.
Gil frowned "Ugh I hate swimming" he said diving in and crossing the river swiftly "Seems like the Marlboro's have moved on even if their stench remains" he groaned.
Barbaros frowned "Well apart from having military men in to direct our PE classes, PE was made obligatory, we started being taught battle strategy and tactics in school senior years while we got a talk every week by a military Colonel guy who would tell us how awesome soldier life is and how the battlefield was doing." he said.
Zadina giggled "Well yours sounds nice Melanae since you can eat what you grow and make lemonade eventually" he said brightly "But still I'll help you both with your gardens if I can" he said looking around at the other little Viera in the park.

Alpha snickered patting Barbaros on the shoulder "Ha somethings really never change. The military is always searching around for more people to send off to their deaths in battle by making it sound like it's cool and somewhat glamourous. Bet they didn't tell ya how many people were being killeld out there" he grunted.
Hebal sighed with relief climbing back out at the opposite side of the river "Never mind my noble viera pal. Look on the brightside at least we are lovely and clean" she added putting a peg over her nose "Say Gil I have been wondering, do you ever go to those big celebrity parties or those fancy award ceremonies?"
Seph smirked watching Itaka jump "You know, like make a deal that binds your soul to something, or you give it away to someone for their services" she explained creeping past the sleeping fiend "If it was as difficult as you say it was then you must be reasonably more skilled than you make out. Have you ever been beaten by other ninja before?"
Melanae smiled picturing to herself a giant barrel of freshly squeezed lemonade in her house "I did that garden task a couple of years ago which is why I mine is harder and has cooler plants. Though next year it's going to be really boring because you have to grow different herbs used for medicine"
Amane frowned a little feeling her swing suddenly shoot forward at Ardie's forceful push "We can always ask but you'll be moving back and forth a lot if you do both of us. My garden patch is about 50 metres away from Ardie's and we have to carry lots and lots of heavy equipment" she warned him. Ardie raised her eyebrow at Zadina following his gaze "Whatcha looking at there?"

Felina shuffled about for a moment copying Cid before doing her own small dance to the music "We celebrate all of them; fire, earth, air, water, ice, thunder, light and dark. All get celebrated by big festivals but if you want to celebrate them too then we will have to travel to another elf forest because no other race does" she giggled.
Yenytai paused watching the parcel land on Alpha's lap when the music stopped "Milly nice pot and despite shyness other fiends fear Milly. Yenytai apparently only fiend not to run away at sight of her. Milly's ultimate goal is to eat 1000 elixers. Yenytai only found her 2" she muttered a little disappointed.
Satoshi laughed nodding her head "Sure I have been beaten by other ninjas. I have never beaten Ranmaru in a ninja fight and I nearly died on many an occasion when I was younger. When I was 14 I got beaten up so badly by another ninja that I spent 2 whole months in hospital" she recalled with a small shudder

Oassu laughed opening one layer of wrapping as it stopped at him before passing it on "We can celebrate whatever ones you want Felina you'll know what all the best ones are anyway" he said.
Jenna chuckled patting Yenytai's head "Don't worry I have about 5 on me just now, I can let you give them to her but maybe she's setting her goal a bit high at 1000 elixirs cause they are super rare you've done good to find 2 in such a local area, I've never heard of anyone owning more than 99 elixirs." she said.
Itaka shrugged "Well your still standing here before us now, I know your talented and skilled you do fine" he said kissing Seph's horns.
Barbaros nodded "Yeah but it was only a small regional war ya? And it paid well and got me some good battle experience" he said leaning back "And no horrifying injuries neither" he chuckled.
Mari shivered as she climbed out before covering her nostrils "Y-Yeah we are provided that river is clean but can I please get a towel and a peg please?" she asked
Gil blushed "Um No I'm not that kind of celebrity, those people are all famous writers or actors and actresses and some people aren't really celebrities who attend those things, I'm normally wandering around and I wouldn't fit in at such a high society gig" he said shaking himself dry along with Enkidu.
Zadina shook his head "Herbology is a super important talent, apparently Miss Mari knows a good deal about herbs still I'm just thinking about all the little Viera I can see it's weird being at a school for a completely different race and gender" he said.

Hebal smiled first shoving a peg over Mari's nose "Here ya go, I hope your feeling better now that the peg is on your nose and here's your towel" she chirped hanging over a pink fluffy towel with hearts on to Mari "Not even one high society gig, but what if they wanted you to present an award or something one day, would you do it Gil?" she asked further.
Seph flapped her wings happily almost not paying attention to what Satoshi was saying because Itaka "he's right your still standing, which is good for us plus to be in hospital for that long and look as good as you do now only suggests your a bit of a fighter" she complimented her stepping over the remains of the couerls they had killed earlier.
Alpha scratched his chin waiting for the parcel to be passed back onto him "I suppose it is good pay but then again so are most high risk jobs which don't involve being shoved down mineshafts for gold. Where I'm from those workers got nothing and their bosses got all the gold. Spent a couple of years down there stealing gold for myself when nobody was looking"
Melanae puffed her cheeks out slightly to protest "Yeah yeah I know it's very useful but it's sooo boring in comparison to the other projects and a want to be able to heal people with white magic, not smelly herbs which aren't as effective" she pouted.
Ardie glanced around the playground smiling at Zadina "Theres only about 10 students per class and I heared in comparison to elf schools this is really small in comparison. Hehe just consider this day as a wonderful new experience"
Amane rubbed her ear slowing down a bit to lose height "I hope your not feeling uncomfortable here, my mum once told me that when your surrounded by loads of people completely different to you, your sense of identity strengthens and you get a clearer view of who you are"

Felina nodded stroking Oassu's good arm "Well since I follow the water goddess we have to go to the water festival. The fire and light festival are my second faves but really you have to go to all of them in a year sometime to get the full festival experience" she told him waving her hands up in the air to dance until the parcel came her way again.
Yenytai shook her head at Jenna "Nooo you give Milly elixer. It may make Milly pop out and say hi. Milly turn fallen leaves to diamonds for elixers. Diamonds could be gift from us showing friendship" she decided passing the parcel to Jenna with the music stopping straight after "Oooh open papar Jenna."
Satoshi smiled proudly jumping over the couerl bodies "Thanks but I am really nothing that amazing ninja wise, just reletively good at thinking on my feet. Let's move on this place is starting to smell and all your couple activities is making me start to miss Gil" she admitted a little looking away as Itaka kissed Seph's horns.

Oassu smiled "Then we'll go to all the ones we can if you say its such a big thing but what goes on at all of these festivals?" he asked watching the parcel make its way around the circle.
Jenna's eyes lit up at this "Oh really? Well thats a nice gift in exchange for an elixir I'm sure me and Milly will be good friends." she said cuddling Yenytai before unwrapping it "I think theres only one more layer to go guys" she told the others.
Barbaros smiled "Hey um Yenytai I have an elixir too...you think Millie would be friends with me if I gave her one too?" he asked eagerly glancing at Alpha "My job was simple enough and it was perfectly legal so I never got caught." he chuckled.
Itaka chuckled glancing at Satoshi "Sorry Satoshi, I thought you said you weren't gonna be one of those couples that was clingy" he said sticking his tongue out at her "But alright we'll cut it out until your with your man again." he said playing with Seph's tail where Satoshi couldn't see.
Mari smiled drying herself off "Cute towel thanks Hebal" she said snuggling her as they walked "I'll bet we totally won that competition tonight" she chirped.
Gil paused considering it "I suppose I would yea but I'm not a popular celebrity more just a war hero I guess still my exploits have been well chronicled and thats it really, I'm not the kinda celebrity who's in the public eye much" he admitted.
Zadina giggled "Well you can learn white magic after you've grasped the basics of elemental magic, I hear its not hard to learn two similar disciplines and use both" he said "But it is a wonderful new experience and I do feel distinctly more...elvish" he said poking his ears "And I'm having a great time with you guys" he said hugging them.

Alpha's smile widened eagerly glancing over at Yenytai "I think I'll get along just fine with Milly I have a couple of elixers I could give her" he told the nymph passing the parcel back around "So how did you get into the more illegal kind of work then if the military payed you so nicely to fight for them?"
Seph smiled tickling Itaka with her tail when Satoshi wasn't looking "I bet we're just making her feel a little bit uneasy because we are so close. Cheer up Satoshi we really can't be that far from the camp. Maybe about a couple of hundred metres" she reassured her pushing Itaka's tongue back into his mouth.
Hebal giggled playfully punching one of Gil's arms "Hehe we just need to work on your public image a little. For a guy who keeps out of the public eye you sure managed to get quite the crowd in Tricasia. That to me says your popular" she complimented him taking the towel back from Mari to dry herself off "Thanks, this is my favourite towel and so long as we don't drop the loot we'll be the victors"
Melanae smiled sitting back down on the swing pushing herself higher "Yeah I suppose your right maybe one day I can find a way to learn both of them before we set off on Amane's summoning journey" she answered hopefully "Maybe Even you could teach me some more next time your in the village."
Amane giggled reaching over the swings gently poking one of Zadina's ears "You're a really nice elf and I bet all the other classmates think so too. I particulaly like your ears when they wiggle slightly" she told him jumping off her swing and doing a somersault in the air before she landed shouting "Ta da!"
Ardie gave Amane a small round of applause stealing her swing "It's good to know you've been having a nice time with us. Is there any particular bit of the day you have been enjoying the most? Is there anything you want to do with us other than the sleepover?"

Yenytai gasped excitedly ripping over the last layer of wrapping paper as soon as the music stopped with her "Yay yay I won I won... didn't I?" she asked a little confused noticing the chocolate was still in it's wrapper "Milly be friends with you if you have elixer or not but Milly be really greatful if given them. You just don't scare or be mean and she be fine"
Felina clapped for Yenttai giving Oassu a kiss on the neck "Oh well we didn't win the chocolate but that was rather fun. The festivals have lots of music and dancing and food and games and lots of events like that and fun activities. You've got to go to those to get a real taste of elven culture and if you can prove you've been to them all that year you can get a big prize. Oh and heres a picture of Riessdan. I was going to show you earlier but the game came up" she added showing him a small painting.
Satoshi rolled her eyes at Itaka "I am not that clingy but you two being all over eachother constantly is bringing about those feelings. Some might argue you two are very clingy, you specifically Itaka" she teased sticking her own tongue out at him

Jenna smiled "If you say so but yeah you totally won well done Yenytai now if you open that little thing up you'll find a tasty little treat inside and when the others get back we can all go and give Milly some elixirs he said happily.
Oassu opened his mouth in surprise "Wow...." he said kissing Felina back "You certainly have some attractive goddesses, but why is she a snake?" he asked
Itaka frowned taken aback "I'm not clingy....I just have a lot of love to give" he muttered quietly.
Barbaros chuckled "I'm sure Milly will like us after a few elixirs" he said "Well done on winning Yenytai." he congratulated her before glancing at Alpha "I wanted out of the military, I didn't feel I was getting the credit I deserve and since the war was finished promotion opportunities were rare, so I up and left and headed for the city but lots of soldiers like me were looking for work too so it was pretty scarce. Then I met Itaka and he helped me out with some work" he said shrugging.
Gil chuckled "Well they were just happy to see a topless celebrity besides Satoshi was probably the source of a lot of the attention with her figure besides would you really like me to go all those weird events?" he asked.
Mari giggled "You sure Hebal? Itaka and Seph are pretty strong and no doubt Satoshi will be good with all her hunting and tracking skill" she asked Hebal "But we do have quite a lot..." she said.
Zadina giggled "I could start teaching you the beginnings of Cure tonight Melanae but thanks Amane I really like your ears too especially because they are so fluffy and cuddly" he said stroking her ears in return "But I've enjoyed the whole day Ardie we can do whatever you guys want tonight" he said happily.

Hebal nodded confidently "Yep I am sure, you have all my knowledge of the forest to make up for Satoshi's tracking skills and we have big strong Gil here to make up the main strength. Hehe I was just curious about celebrity life you can go to any event you want" she added to Gil skipping around a tree grabbing an apple on her way.
Alpha yanwed digging his arm into his things working out just how many elixers he had sitting in his bag. "Fair enough but thats usually what happens to soldiers when their isn't a war going on. Theres pleanty of jobs going in the city but I bet you made a lot more money working with Itaka than you would flipping burgers.... so how did you end up meeting Scarlet?"
Seph laughed giving Itaka a hug "We aren't clingy just affectionate and able to appreciate eachothers company" she answered back flying forward into the camp taking Itaka with her "Heya guys did you miss us?" she greeted them all putting Itaka back on the ground next to her.
Melanae giggled leaning in towards that "Don't say stuff like that to Ardie unless you want to play wrestling with her or dueling. She likes lots of physical stuff like that" she whispered almost jumping off the swing in response to the school bell being rung over the playground "I'll see you guys later on" she told them getting up from her swing to go inside.
Ardie waved to her friend continuing to play on her swing "We get to play a little longer today because Miss Chi meets us on the playground to take us to our garden patches. I would say we have 5 more minutes" she grinned.
Amane's ears wiggled happily in response to Zadina's contact "Thanks but my ears aren't the fluffiest you'll find. We gotta line up in the middle of the yard when we hear a whistle" she told him blushing a little as she waved Melanae off. "I would love to maybe learn how to use cure too if you would let me"

Felina shrugged putting the picture away in her bag "I dunno why she's a snake, I am guessing she was just born that way not that it particulaly matters. You don't want to anger her or you could drown or have a total drought in your area"
Hayate gave Yenytai a small round of applause putting his instrument away in his bag "Well done on winning the prize Yenytai, I had my eye closed most of the time so I had no idea who the music was stopping on" he smiled patting her on the head then waved to Seph and Itaka "Didn't you two go around with Satoshi?" he asked. Yenytai smiled happily ripping the chocolate wrapper open and tossed it over her shoulder "mmm... brown food yummy" she stated taking a huge bite out of the bar.
Satoshi sighed teleporting forward into the camp next to the others "Hey guys did you miss us? I see we are back before the other team not that it matters too much. What you been doing while we were away?" she asked them adressing the whole group.

Oassu smiled "Well I've got me a little white mage worshipper of hers I don't think I'll need to worry about any devine retribution so long as I've got you helping me out" he said snuggling her.
Jenna laughed "It's called chocolate and enjoy it you earned it" she said waving the others as they came back.
Mari giggled "Sure your right bet we've totally one, you can have Satoshi do anything you want soon Gil" she said winking at him.
Gil blushed "I guess so...not that I'm going to make her do anything bad you know" he told the others "But your asking the wrong guy about celebrity life still theres the others" he said pointing to the group in the clearing.
Barbaros yawned "Met her in school she was one hot chick then but she was really choosy with her guys I don't think anyone got intimate with her in school met her before I joined Itaka when I was still looking for work running a cafe. We hit it off and well....one thing led to another and she got pregnant and we married" he shrugged waving to the others as they arrived
Itaka smiled snuggling Seph "Thanks for that, I didn't think we were that bad I just can't resist cuddling your lovely body" he said stroking her hips.
Zadina waved Melanae off "Don't be silly your ears are lovely and fluffy" he said stroking them again "And I suppose I could wrestle with Ardie if she really wanted....I'm not that strong though" he admitted
