Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Targeting things?" her voice parroted his. She didn't quite grasp the question, and she looked a little confused as she took another sip of her drink.

"I don't know? I don't usually go around targeting anything... I spend most of my time helping a friend look after pups really." she shrugged. If she wasn't hanging with Raider she was with Ash, doing just that. There wasn't a whole lot of target practice involved in either thing.

"You ask weird questions, Five." she laughed a bit, shaking her head.

Aria practically choked on the sip she was taking when the blunt question came out of the boy's mouth. Her eyes darted up to look across at him, she looked like a deer caught in headlights. The other question came across then, and her gaze dropped, a cold, harsh look on her face.

The young woman eyed her drink, then snorted a bit. Grabbing it, she quickly downed the entire contents before pushing it off away from herself, turning her gaze to look off to the side.

"Yes, I am. And I don't have any parents." the last part sounded... cold, there was a twinge of pain in it that the harsh tone was trying to mask.

"Suppose the first question explains your other questions though..." she mumbled a bit, moving to get to her feet.

Aria blinked as she found her hand caught up by the other audio. There was a small frown on her face, but she didn't pull away. She just quietly listened as he spoke, eying as he poured them both another drink.

Her eyes lazily stared at the cup. She could still go home, and not worry about this stuff. Go hang out with Raider and be buried under pups.

She didn't really want to though, she's purposefully moved to see Five when her eye had caught him. She had missed him. He was her friend when she was small, and she wanted to maintain that.

Finally she gave a defeated sigh and sat back down, not sure if she should draw her hand back from him or not. For the moment, she left it, and used her free hand to snap up the cup, downing it rather quickly.

Maybe it'd help loosen her up at least. It's not like anyone else in the bar knee she was a bot afterall, right?

Aria was doing her best to keep up with Five, but her head was feeling a little woozy. She had felt him squeeze her hand, and listened to him speak. Her face felt warm, and she furrowed her brow, only a moment. Not at him, but at the weird feelings.

"Heh... the maze..." she murmured quietly, mostly to herself. Her mind wandered to thoughts of her visit into the underground. It felt like forever ago, even though it wasn't really.

"... 'preciate that..." her speech was slowing, and her ears drooped a bit. She wasn't upset, she was just having a hard time holding them up.

"This stuff... is sooooooooooooo gross."

"Noooooo I can... I can..." She squinted a bit, then snorted. She could hang! She could drink the terrible tasting liquid! It didn't matter that her head felt weird and light.

"Mmm..." she sighed a little, feeling Five's arm moving down her back. There was a bit of murmuring from her, unintelligible for the most part.

"S'pose... that's... fine... I can... can totally... totally stand though... so ... yah." she shook her head a little again, trying to shake the hazy feeling.

Aria didn't seem to be pushing it off, instead leaning a bit against Five.

"Thanks... you're... a good friend, Five. Like... one of my bestest friends. I missed you." her voice was quiet, speech slow and a little slurred, but she meant what she was saying, regardless.

Aria couldn't really keep track of where they were going, so she was quite fine with him leading her as they headed out the bar. She managed to slink her hood up when they were outside, though it took a moment or two in order to grab at the cloth properly. Had she realized the entrance was so closed, she wouldn't have wasted the effort and energy.

The female audio jerked a bit as she was suddenly picked up, but when he explained himself, it seemed to soothe her nerves. She settled a little.

"Mmm... I remember... not a pup anymore though... can walk..." again with the slow, careful speaking. There was little chance she'd make it long on her feet. Her head rested against him as she considered what else he was saying.

"Don't... think you showed no..."

Aria remained quiet for the remainder of the trip through the underground, it'd be easy to think she was possibly asleep, but she lifted her head when he started to speak again. Blurry, tired eyes glanced around the room, moving slowly to take it all in. It was... it was really pretty. Had she been sober, she'd have been surprised. Since she wasn't, she simply smiled at the lights in the canopy, and giggled a bit.

"Okay." was her simple reply. She was too busy taking in the features of the room itself to say much else.

Aria was tired, and dizzy and she simply made a soft, agreeable noise. She was quite comfortable, the bed was nice, and it wasn't too bright or too dark in the room. The small lights were advantageous that way.

When Five slid in next to her, she simply shifted a bit to snuggle against the other audio, accustomed to being snuggled by pups, or passing out near one of the adults and snuggling them.

It was the last thing she remembered for the night as her eyes closed again, and her mind faded to black.
