You know the gig^_^ Feel free to watch, but no posting unless you're one of the participants. Thanks!
Participants:
Rik - Julius ((And any others you might want to include))
Ice - Silva
Silva hovered as he stared down at the piece of paper in his hand, scowling slightly. He hadn't been able to find the address for Julius, but he had for the other summoner he had been told about. Corvus. And he figured if the other summoner didn't know where he could find Julius then he was out of luck.
He shrugged, dropping down in front of the house and looking it over for a second before heading for the door. After a second he paused, taking his toothpick out and tossing it into the grass before levitating upwards to knock. If bleach boy had been telling the truth, this summoner wasn't one he wanted to piss off.
Besides... he had a debt to pay. He cracked his neck then reached up, knocking on the door. If the people here were anything like Ice he figured he was in for a wait.

Not much of one, thankfully. The house was generally so full of people there was almost always someone sitting in the living room near the front door and today was no exception. Within moments, the door opened to reveal a young woman with long braided light brown hair and almond eyes dressed in a frilly white nightgown and maroon housecoat with black trim. She smiled at Silva. "Hello, can I help you with anything?"

Silva jerked slightly, a smirk pulling at his lips. A woman. He liked women better then men for some reason, feien, human, or otherwise.
"Yeah. I'm looking for my summoner." He stated, wishing he hadn't tossed his toothpick so quickly. "His name is Julius. But I couldn't find his address at the shop, and damned if I wanted to stay there longer then I had to." He muttered the last, pulling back slightly so he didn't have to stare up so far to see her face.
"So I came here to see if the other summoner, Corvus, knew where I could find him."

"Oh, isn't that nice?" smiled the woman. She sounded surprisingly genuine in this sentiment. "Would you like to come inside, or would you prefer I bring Corvus out to you?"

Silva blinked, confused as to what part of what he had just said had been nice. After a second he shrugged, forgetting about it and moving on to the important part. "Whatever works, lady, I'm not picky."
Unconsciously he glanced around her, trying to see in the house. "He's in there, huh?"

"On the back porch," she said sunnily. "Just a moment please." She stepped back from the screen door and retreated into the rear of the house.
What Silva could see was not particularly interesting. Despite the great variety of its residents, the house looked like nay other. There was a coffee table with several books and the latest issue of Home & Garden, couches (one teal green leather, the other white upholstered), bookshelves, rugs, and some art hanging on the walls clearly produced by a particularly adept child. The mantle over the fireplace held several cards from recent holidays, postcards, and photos from friends.
There soon came the sound of voices as the woman returned with the summoner in tow. "Yes, I'll remember that for next time, Corvus," she was saying.
"See that you do," grated Corvus, then looked up at the doorway. His eyes narrowed at the sight of an unfamiliar face. "Who are you?"

Silva paused, looking at the adult male for a second before grunting. "Silva." He muttered, not bothering to make the other male beat it out of him. Something told him it wasn't worth the time.
"Look, this shouldn't take long." He said, dropping down to where Corvus was. "I need to find my summoner. I've waited long enough as it is, I figure I might as well get it over with." He looked up at the taller male for a second. "His name is Julius. I figured you might know where he is."

Corvus opened his mouth to start to speak, thought a moment, closed, his mouth, continued thinking, and finally decided to be angry. Very angry. "Get out!" he shouted, pointing towards the door and ignoring the fact Silva was already outside.

Silva blinked, then snorted, nodding slightly. "Yeah, I guess assuming a summoner knew everything was a bad idea." He turned, walking off the porch. "Sorry to take your precious time."
So the guy had a temper. At least he wasn't shooting at him... or holding a blade to his throat... hell, if you asked Silva it was a great improvement on the dicks that needed permission to go to the store.
He would just have to find Julius on his own. Or screw it and work on paying back the b*****d in the forest instead.

Behind Silva, there was some brief shouting (Corvus making demands) and the door clicked shut. Which would have been problematic for Silva had not it opened again a moment later and a old man walked out, looking around. He was holding some sort of strange device in his hands. As angry as Corvus looked, this man looked angrier. Scowl lines were etched onto his face from many, many years of, well, scowling at people. He seemed more perturbed than angry at the moment, thank goodness, and looked about the porch for something.

Silva jerked, almost thrown off balance as someone large stepped onto the porch, vibrating the ground he was standing on. He turned, taking to the air and studying the older man cautiously.
The last human male he had ran into... had been a large silent b*****d that lifted more then some cars weighed. He shrugged, mentally smirking at his own curiosity and cleared his throat. "Somethin I can help you with, mister?"
He wasn't really looking forward to the flight home. There had been a rottweiler that was running loose in the neighborhood, and damned if the b*****d didn't like to jump...

The man sniffed lightly. "No, but if you were planning on going back to Gaia..." He resisted the urge to tack on the word "brat" and waved the device he held.

Silva blinked, looking more closely at the device. It didn't LOOK like a weapon... but hell, he wasn't going to take any chances.
"You want me to take that with me?" He asked, motioning to it, idly wondering which end it would shoot from if it WAS a weapon.

"No, you--" The man sucked at the air quickly to stop himself from returning with an insult. His eyes narrowed slightly. "There's a sign in the shop." As if this statement explained everything in the universe.

Silva choked, trying not to laugh. He would have laughed outright if it HAD been an insult, but something about this old man intrigued him.
"I'm sorry sir, I don't go to the shop often. The other feiens bother me."
((Dammit, sorry, misread))
