Welcome to Gaia! ::

Felna laughed putting the bag back "Though you have to pass off as one to the elf for at least an hour so no being nice for half a minute to the first random in the street" she added ruffling his hair "And see how bad an influence you've been on me, got me gambling my money away like an evil greedy commoner" she snickered recalling her mothers lecture from when she was younger.

Satoshi snickered watching what Ivy was doing "Sure we can teach her to high five but I would go and teach her a few tricks first, like how to redecorate your stuff with her colour changing magic. Would save me a fortune on paints if she used that. And fur isn't exactly the best tasting of things I bet" she told Hebal sitting down on an unoccupied chair "Just think of the dumbed down abilities as an additional challenge to show how even more awesome you are to be able to win without showing your full strength"

Kumool hesitated but eventually smiled and nodded at them with a kupo "Sure they were mostly well behaved kupo. Ivy thought it would be funny to turn the armour of a group of judges see through but fortunately that was in private. But Sophia kupo was no bother apart from her getting scarily mad when she dropped her ice cream... had to give her mine kupo" he sighed missing the flavour of mint ice cream "Knives are being allowed in next year and some skills and abilites are currently being reviewed for next year but thats not my job kupo"

Hebal gasped barely noticing the chocolate offer while Kumool mentioned the ice cream "I would be feeling pretty mad too if I ended up buying a lovely ice cream of a lovely flavour only for it to be wasted by falling on the floor. Still good thinking giving her yours, wouldn't have been good if she started destroying stuff in sadness and anger" she muttered eventually looking down at her piece of chocolate "Ooh thank you for the chocolate bit of.... Mari leg from the looks of it" she laughed finally examining the shape.

Oassu smiled cuddling Felina "Well yeah common people might be able to make their life easier by betting but only rich nobles have enough money to keep losing and still play" he said humming to himself as they walked along before placing himself down at an airbus stop "We'll take the airbus to the arena from here I've always wanted to ride on one." he said sitting himself down.

Gil chuckled "No I don't know a thing about her powers other than Dark Knight's powers drain their life force and stamina but if she can control it she should be fine I'm not exactly in the habit of giving lessons anyway, Zadina is a special exception" he said ruffling the boy's hair.


Mari shook her head "Sorry Kumool but I've already got other things I need to do, the armour is close to what I'd normally fight in but I'd never have enough Gil to finish training and want to keep travelling for a while anyway" she explained watching as a sleepy Sophia woke up to hug the small piece of chocolate before popping it in her mouth.

Zadina nodded "I suppose an ice cream is fair enough since you lost yours but yeah Sophia would be a great battle companion if we could train her to fight beside us" he giggled earning him a disapproving look from Mari.

Felina raised an eyebrow standing behind Oassu "Really? Its just like travelling on an airship you know only smaller, less luxurious and filled with a lot less people" she told him beginning to massage his shoulders "It's the nobles who are good at the gambling you need to worry about, they get cocky and start doing more and more dangerous wagers until a bunch of people get hurt from it"

Satoshi smiled joining in in rufling Zadina's hair "Well aren't you a lucky elf, getting special training from Gil and airship training from Captain Alpha. Pretty soon you'll have learned something awesome from all of us" she laughed eventually removing her hand "Travelling around is far more fun than sticking to long hard job training anyday, no offence Kumool" she added.

Kumool smiled holding back a laugh at Hebal's behaviour "Ok ok kupo. Was just a suggestion, no need to panic Hebal though you usually pay your armour cost off within 3 years of being a judge depending on how much of your salery you want used to cover the expense each month kupo" he stated knowing that the cost of judges armour was extremely high "I get to travel about too, maybe not relaxing on the beach with lovely kupo nut ice cream but still fun kupo"

Hebal laughed shaking her head at Zadina "I couldn't learn everything you guys could do, thats the job of mimes though they don't really learn just copy. Though I did once learn from someone how to eat 10 tubs of ice cream without getting brainfreeze" she proudly told them puffing her chest out "Dragoon armour is way better than judgs armour. Not as thick and heavy but man it looks cool"

The garif looked up sensing he was being watched and for a moment put down the magazine he was so curious about before to briefly watch back at the six armed warrior.

Oassu nodded watching as the bus arrived and the few people there shambled to get on "You see that's a danger from loaning money rather than gambling with it, no danger to nobles though I've heard of a few rich folks losing estates and whatnot to races" he said counting out some gil for the bus.

Gil looked away from the Garif "Well dragoon armour is quite lightweight but durable designed more for speed through the air and manoeuvrability rather than withstanding heavy blows though Satoshi raises a good point, why don't you wear your dragoon armour? Would help you in a fight for sure." he asked.

Mari smiled "Sure he's my brother and he's a very nice person" she told Kumool "Was that man who came to visit me just before" she explained to him "And I think if Hebal wore her armour it would reduce some of her magical abilities a bit I think." she said uncertainly

Zadina nodded "Yes that's right, armour normally blocks a person's mana flow which is why mages don't normally use armour unless it's a really special kind which allows the flow of mana otherwise their spells just won't cast when they try them" he explained.

Felina sighed and nodded knowing it was true "Don't forget betting off servants and chocobos and all the other fancy things they tend to get. And trust me, you have not been to a high class nobility gambling night where... put it this way, noblemen go as far as to bet a minimum of one million gil on a single game of blackjack" she shuddered moving once everyone had left the bus.

Satoshi grinned reaching over and flicking Hebal's ear "I always thought dragoon armour was only in blue but guess I was wrong. Purple is a better colour than blue and red anyway. Anyway do show us whenever even if you don't necessarily want to wear it outside" she chuckled curious now as to what Hebal used to look like armoured up.

Kumool kupoed quietly to himself disappointed slightly in the colour choice "I suppose purple amour isn't so bad kupo, a little girly but still not the best to have in my opinion" he commented while he formed a mental image of Mari's brother. "You know your brother doesn't look much like a village leaer kupo... seems too young kupo" he added always thinking of leaders of small places like her village to be old men and women.
