Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zadina nodded "She's a very nice Gria but where exactly do I go to show them? Will we still need to wait in this big long horrible queue?" he asked looking back at it sadly watching the Gria children play tag above the crowd.

Oassu nodded "We've not got any great rush to be somewhere she should be nice but I bet she didn't know you were elvish royalty" he chuckled "Maybe she'll treat you with a whole load more respect knowing it." he said happily.

Gil paused for a moment thinking about it unaware Ivy had turned his armour bright blue by sitting on it "I guess I'll probably just hit the training field keep myself warmed up for the fights to come, besides I've still got to shake last night off" he chuckled.

Mari smiled "Yeah Satoshi your dresses look wonderful y'know I'm surprised you haven't received offers from any businesses or something, I bet I could sell a few of these back home" she said.

Itaka nodded "Considering the amount of swords he uses it will be small, he probably uses most in the competition but there's not many fighters who use multiple blades but what do you mean about people getting judged even if they go through matches? I thought the judges were only required if a fight took too long" he said moving down further under the covers.

Felina grinned nodding her head at Hebal "Yep you just have to go around to the side door. Sure the enterence to the arena isn't as grand as the main once but the inside VIP suite it more than makes up for the bad outside look" she chuckled shuddering slightly at a sudden thought "This Yusti does give Mari privacy to do stuff like get changed and use the bathroom right?"

Satoshi quietly laughed complimenting Ivy on her job of decorating the armor "Feel free to sell some of them off... I think a lot of people get put off by the measurements of most of the dresses since they are designed by me and I can't easily adjust the sizes" she told them tickling Ivy with her index finger "I would have thought you would have recovered now from last night, are you really that hungover?

Yusti paused considering whether or not she could help Satoshi in anyway "Hmm... you know this is the middle of a big tournament so I could try getting a few ads up around the arena if that helps" she offered catching a dress that nearly fell to the ground "Although if you did that to get maximum effect Zadina would be stuck there all day unless you listed opening times."

Hebal couldn't help but burst into laughter regarding Felina's question "Hehehe sorry but it was a pretty daft thing to ask, nobody is that mean to do silly stuff like that. We even saw Alpha watching a few of the matches when we got in, he seemed to be having fun and said the bathroom had almost been completed" she updated them.

Seph sighed returning the kiss then moved away again to see to the food "Yeah it does kinda suck but then again I guess they have to fit the tournament into a fixed time slot since other people will be wanting the arena for other activities But relax, you've been doing really well so your bound to be picked" she reassured him cheerfully flipping the bacon up and onto the plate.

Oassu smiled "Jenna is probably plying her trade down at the race track but those guys should get here soon I wanna meet this Yusti if she's so nice you know?" he said

Gil frowned checking his armour was alright "Well hopefully little Terrato will wake up soon, he won't be allowed with you in the fights so he'll need to behave" he said following the others.

Mari nodded "Well if you could get us one of those posters they'd be really nice but we'd need to design a big poster and stuff wouldn't we?" she asked keeping a close eye on Sophia's antics.

Itaka smiled smelling the food "Really well after just one round? We're all pretty equal apart from Satoshi I think" he said "I'd think they'd have things sorted out a little better you know" he sighed happily.

Felina also smiled happy to hear that the mojority of her freend at least were enjoying themselves "I'm not entirely sure about that, I mean they all have to be up by nowish so they can find out when they are fighting and its almost straight after" she answered laughing at Zadina being spun "You not dizzy up there cousin" she asked spinning Oassu around at the same pace.

Satoshi laughed carefully opening up her bag to take a closer look at Terrato "Not likely, the snake seems to be in one if his more irritating lazy moods plus he is starting to shed skin everywhere" she complained closing her bag up "Give Yusti a little time, she does have a load of work to do on top of looking after Mari and Sophia"

Yusti yaned nodding her head at Mari "Well sort of. I mean you can just make it a big line of text but a fancy colourful poster would catch more peoples eye, or even just a few photos of the goods" she shrugged waving at the gate guards who looked incredibly bored just sitting around doing nothing

Seph chuckled digging her claws into the bed and looked up at the clock "Heh you tell me pleanty so no need to think too much about that. But you know they were only preliminary fights so it could be a clean slate for everyone now the proper tournament has begun. That still means you better not go soft on anybody today, no toying with them either!" she instructed.

Hebal giggled glancing up at Zadina "Oooh why didn't ya say so? I'll just have to undizzy you in a moment" she grinned spinning him around in the opposite direction "It won't be long until ya get to meet them. I can see Gil coming towards us in one direction I can't tell from all this spinning but I can spot that amor a mile off!"

Oassu smiled waving to the others "Here they come now" he said kissing Felina "Satoshi sure looks happy today surprising seeing as she might fight Mari later." he added.

Gil frowned "Poor boy...." he said noting Zadina "But that's fine but do snakes shed their skin often? Alpha might not be happy with him leaving it all over the airship" he said waving to Oassu.

Mari frowned "How do you mean?" she asked looking around "It's not like there's any of those nasty paparazzi out today is there? We've been with her most of the time she's been out." she added.

Itaka rolled his eyes "Of course not, but I'd imagine they'd want an impressive display to decide who is going through so maybe I'll try and disarm them, that takes a bit of talent and it eliminates the opponent so who know's maybe we'll all get through" he said eating his food.

Zadina gasped clinging to Hebal's head "Miss Hebal, not that I don't see the logic behind your spinning this isn't making me feel any better...." he groaned burying his face in Hebal's fur.

Felina smiled gently pulling Oassu forward after Hebal "She's probably happy for other reasons if you get what I mean... bet shes been having fun and enjoying the money being made from all those dresses" she whispered gasing at the number of dresses being carried "Congrats on getting through your first rounds" she managed to greet them with while admiring one of the more extravagent dresses,

Satoshi scratched her chin for a moment before providing Gil with a shrug "I don't know how often Terrato will shed his skin since it varies from snake to snake but in time I'll find out another time and let you know about it and Alpha won't mind so long as I clean up after him I bet" she smiled then muttered a modest thank you to Felina.

Yusti chuckled hanging back slightly from the newer people unsure whether or not to introduce herself "Well the more gossipy magazines are talking about her since the tournament kinda declared who she was and Gil is in some of the better ones because he completely stole the show yesterday by appearing"
