Champion: "Oh my." *She spoke with an impressed look on her face, as if she understood what Rachael meant.*
Karol: Bhut who?"
Lezard: *He adjusted the cone-shaped hat on his head.* "The little meister is right. We'd still need someone to teach us this."
Skyward: *He nodded his head in understanding.* "I wouldn't have any idea-"
Hayward: *She looked at Skyward and opened her hand, watching a white pearl wobble in her palm.* "What about-?"
Skyward: "Arcadia?" *He spoke in confusion, as if he wasn't sure what her intentions were.*
Hayward: "We've learnt a lot from her. Our Remenistal based Hi-Ougi." *She tried to speak in a convincing manner.*
Skyward: *He hesitantly nodded his head while discreetly glancing at the guild.* "Alright, we do owe The Rostical Guild from defeating that Astragon Projection."
Hayward: *She smiled at Skyward and walked with a slight limp towards the table.* "Here-"
Rachael: *She watched Hayward place the pearl on the table.* "What's that?"
Champion: "Some sort of Rosterology device?"
Hayward: "We haven't used it for ourselves-"
Skyward: "But you may let Nathan borrow it for one night."
Rachael: "You still haven't told us what it is."
Hayward: "To be honest-"
Skyward: "We're not entirely sure ourselves."
Hayward: "We know it's a Summonce Scarbra."
Skyward: "But you need to activate it before you sleep."
Champion: "What could you possibly summon before sleeping?"
Luna: (Yo, Destiny. You there?) *She thought to herself, slightly looking up to her forehead.* (How long are ya goin' to sleep for?)
Hayward: "We have an alliance with Sakura Village. The Astraseeker there is very knowledgeable and an excellent teacher."
Skyward: "As she is able to know what you feel and move past those frustrations and confusions."
Lezard: "Ooo, is this the start of a new story arc?"
Rachael: *She glanced at Lezard and didn't respond, as if she was used to his humour.* "Battling Oxident is tomorrow, I don't think he'll have time to do any training."
Hayward: *She smiled.* "That's exactly why we're offering this."
Skyward: "He can do all the training and the hard yards-"
Hayward: "All in his sleep." *She smiled again.*
Lezard: "That's deliciously divine?" *He glanced at his guild members for their input.*
Champion: (Arcadia..)
Rachael: "That's amazing!" *She shook her head with a smile.* "That would be awesome. Nath is going to be happy."
Destiny: (Yeup.) *Her meow echoed in Luna's mind, catching her attention.*
Luna: (You're awake!) *She grunted in thought, trying to hide her excitement.*
Destiny: (Where are we?)
Luna: "The tavern?" *She spoke, as if it was obvious.*
Lezard: "Tavern? Who-? Where-?" *He looked to each side, as if he was mocking Luna.*
Luna: "Oi, dickface." *She grunted and raised a fist, waving it in Lezard's face.*
Lezard: "Ooo, mercy!" *He squealed and looked away.*
Destiny: (I don't remember much.)
Luna: (You were asleep, aye.)
Destiny: (When I rest normally, my sensors are always active.)
Luna: (So ya never get a good night's rest?)
Destiny: (I feel refreshed! Yeup!)
Luna: "Aha, kool-"
Lezard: "Cool-?" *He noticed Luna look at him with a growing frown, causing him to look away before saying another word.*
Rachael: *She hesitated, controlling her excitement.* "We can't accept such a gift."
Champion: "Rach, I've learnt to accept people's offerings. Most times, you offend them if you decline, and we're only borrowing it for one night-" *She looked at Hayward for confirmation.*
Hayward: "Yes." *She picked the pearl back up.*
Skyward: "Correct."
Champion: "See?"
Hayward: *She smiled and took several steps around the table, handing over the pearl to Rachael.* "Are we safe to assume you'll be attending Battling Oxident."
Champion: "Oh my, of course!"
Lezard: "We wouldn't miss it for our champy-poo."
Karol: *He watched Rachael admire the pearl in her hand.* "Nafan will be so happy!" *He spoke with a soda made moustache.*
Rachael: "Hehe. Thank you so much, guys."
Champion: *She leant towards Rachael, whispering in her ear.* "I believe Hayward is a girl."
Rachael: "I know, I was just-" *She noticed the champion's obliviousness, causing her to pause, as if she didn't want to explain herself.* "Thank you."
Champion: "You're very welcome." *She leant back and smiled with her eyes closed.*
Keeper: "If it ain't the 'Wards." *She smirked at Skyward and Hayward, as she waved to an empty small table.*
Hayward: "Thank you!"
Keeper: "You want the regular?"
Skyward: "Please!"
Rachael: "Thank you again." *She watched the three walk away from the table.*
Lezard: "You asked us-" *He looked at Rachael and leant forward in a serious-like manner, moving his drink to the other side.* "What about you, Razzypoo?"
Rachael: "Hehe, what about me?"
Lezard: "Earth?"
Rachael: "..." *Her smile faded slowly the more she thought about his sudden question.* "Why do you want to know?"
Luna: *She discreetly glanced at Rachael, as if she was interested to know.* "..."
Lezard: "You always ask us, little monster." *He spoke as if the answer was obvious.*
Rachael: "I..." *She looked down and grabbed her cup and twirled it, watching the liquid swirl inside of it.*
Karol: "Waichael?"
Champion: "Oh my, was this a trick question?" *She was unsure why Rachael hadn't answered Lezard's question.*
Lezard: "Razzypoo?"
Rachael: "I want..." *She paused and frowned at herself.* "Ash told me, that you should only seek something if you need it, not because you want it-"
Luna: "And that's gay as shit." *She grunted in an annoyed-like manner.*
Rachael: "Luna. That isn't acceptable language-"
Luna: *She waved her hand at Rachael, as if she didn't care about her language.* "Stuff that shit, Rach. What's the point on livin' if you can't get wat you want, aye."
Rachael: "Luna." *She spoke on her breath.*
Luna: "You sacrifice a lot of shit, so did Ashton."
Rachael: "How would you know?"
Luna: *She half smirked.* "He was my dumbass brother's bestie, remember?"
Karol: "I wanna meet Ashtone."
Rachael: "Ash-, ton." *She spoke with a smile, trying to hide her emotions.*
Karol: "Asht-ton."
Luna: *She looked at Rachael in a sisterly-like manner.* "I didn't mean to be a bitch or anythin'."
Rachael: "I know."
Champion: "Well, Rachael?"
Rachael: "Well? Sorry?"
Rachael: *She paused and glanced across the table, noticing the guild giving her their full attention.* "It's no big deal-"
Luna: "Oi!"
Rachael: *She sighed in a defeated-like manner.* "I miss him."
Lezard: "Ashton?"
Rachael: *She nodded her head.* "I miss him so much. I want to be with him again."
Karol: (Waichael.) *He thought to himself with lowering morale, as if he was sympathising with her.*
Rachael: "But-" *She looked up with a widening smile.* "My responsibilities is with the guild-"
Karol: *He smiled in a guilty-like manner, glancing away from Rachael.* "..."
Rachael: (I wonder what he's up to now? I wonder how worried he is? Knowing him, he won't give up trying to find me, but like me, he won't utter a word of his grievances.) *She raised her other hand and placed it on the table, revealing a pulsating fist.*
Champion: *She noticed Rachael's f
ist and noticed a sparkling rock underneath it.* (She's still practising what I taught her on the Sheridan?)
Luna: "C'mon, Rach. Just tell us-"
?????: "That took way longer than I thought!" *A man with a deep voice spoke from behind Luna.*
Luna: "Aye? 'Sup, Natalie?" *She grunted and looked over her shoulder, watching Nathan hold cartons of food in both arms.*
Lezard: "Ooo, we'll save this emotional revelation for another time, Razzypoo. But first-"
Karol: "Food!-"
*A purple light flashed from behind Luna, catching the guild's attention.*
Destiny: "Yeup." *She hovered around Luna's head.*
Lezard: "There's our little friend!" *He sarcastically giggled, wiggling his bottom.*
Destiny: "Yeup!"
Nathan: "Sorry." *He mumbled and gently lowered his arms, allowing the champion and Lezard to remove the stack of cartons off his arms.* "I-"
*Nathan glanced at Luna and paused, not realising his jaw visibly dropped.*
Luna: "Why did everyone get quiet-?" *Her words caused Destiny to scan the table, noticing Nathan's reaction towards her.* "Wat are you lookin' at?"
Nathan: "I-..." *He spoke on his breath, as a mixture of emotions filled his face.*
Rachael: (Does Nathan have a thing for Luna?) *She thought to herself in curiosity, as if Nathan's facial expression was quite obvious to her.*
Nathan: "I-It's you.." *He spoke on his breath once again.*
Luna: "Yea, me? Get over it, dicksniffer."
Nathan: "Dick-? Sniff-?" *He spoke as if he snapped out of his trance-like confusion.* "Luna?"
Luna: "Yea?" *She grunted in an annoyed-like manner.*
Destiny: (Looks like he's seen an Astragon Projection and your hair is the one that's white.)
Luna: "Aha."
Lezard: "Bwarharharh." *He laughed and nodded his head in agreement.*
Luna: "Aye?"
Destiny: "Yeup?" *They both faced Lezard in confusion.*
Karol: "What's so funny?" *He looked at Lezard and Luna in confusion.*
Nathan: "Your hair, why is it white?"
Rachael: *She tilted her head down and rubbed in between her eyes with a smile.* (Everyone is so out of it-)
Lezard: "Lezard thinks we all should eat!"
Nathan: "Your hair?!"
Luna: *She looked at Lezard in shock.* "Could you hear my kitty?"
Destiny: "Yeup?"
Champion: "Oh my? You Soul Linked with Destiny too?"
Lezard: "Well, Luna and my delicious self used a Hi-Ougi-"
Rachael: "You used a Hi-Ougi?!"
Karol: "Nomnomnom." *He started to eat rice made squares, not caring about the discussion.*
Luna: "And Destiny can phase through objects-"
Rachael: "Are you serious?!"
Champion: "Oh my!"
Nathan: "Your Soul Link increased again?!"
Lezard: *He started to eat sushi-like fruit.* "This is succulent."
Karol: "Yheah!" *He enthusiastically nodded his head, as rice stuck on the sides of his cheeks.*
Luna: "Sit down, Natalie! We've been starvin' for months now."
Champion: "Months? It might be close to an hour but-"
Rachael: "Joking.." *She whispered to the champion.*
Champion: "Oh my!" *She started to laugh, even though it was obvious she didn't understand it.*
Nathan: *His stomach rumbled, causing him to sit down at the table in a betrayed-like manner.* "Why can you Hi-Ougi? What was it? How did you do it?"
Luna: "Ahh.." *She glanced at the food in front of her, causing Destiny's stomach to rumble loudly.*
Nathan: "Well?" *He glanced to both Lezard and Luna, as if he was eager to know.*
Champion: "Why are you so persistent to know, Nathan?"
Lezard: "Yes-sir-ee! There aren't any plot twists with this information."
Nathan: "But, in order to Hi-Ougi, you need to have a certain level of attachment or closeness."
Luna: "Aye?" *She grunted in confusion, as she readied to take a massive bite out of a burger.*
Lezard: "Just means we're besties after all." *He shrugged his shoulders, as if it didn't mean anything.*
Luna: *She discreetly smiled in appreciation.* (He's weird, but he's really compassionate..) *Her words triggered a flashback of the state she was in.*
Destiny: (Yeup?)
Luna: (He could embarrass me, or tell them all wat I was doin'.)
Rachael: "Sounds like someone is jealous."
Nathan: "Jealous? Me? No!" *He mumbled with his deep voice and looked down, noticing his carton of food remained untouched.*
Champion: "I'm so confused by all this."
Rachael: "Hehe." *She covered her mouth as she chewed.*
Nathan: (Bell..)
Karol: "Bhut we kan Hi-Ougi, Nafan!" *He spoke in a confident-like manner, as a few rice fell off his widening smile.*
Nathan: "Yeah." *He put on a smile for Karol.*
Lezard: *He intensely stared at Luna.* "And as Loonzamotto devours that burger, as if it were a weak Scoldrant, reminiscences of the burger's ingredients could be seen dripping from the side of the culprit-"
Luna: "Roi-, shrut rahp!" *She growled with her mouth full of the burger, glancing at Lezard.*
Rachael: "Anyway, I'd like to make an announcement." *She caught the guild's attention.* "We've been together for quite a while-"
Champion: "Three years, three months, two days and fifteen hours."
Luna: "How-?"
Destiny: (Is that right?)
Lezard: "I don't know."
Luna: (Dunno.) *She glanced at Lezard.*
Rachael: "Is that really correct?"
Champion: "Give or take two months. Those Spacial Funnels have been a grief to me keeping track of time." *She smiled with her eyes closed and tilted her head to one side.*
