Silver Moon Fairies Beach Event! (OM, FT and SW Only Event)

At Cirven's next question the Vice President of the West Fiore Trading Company simply shrugged. He had no real explanation for Mars' behaviour, the lord of war was as unpredictable as the elements he commanded, but he figured he would find out more about that whole thing in due time. Cirven's next comment ... well, let's just say it didn't sit too well with him. If this curse could really be considered lucky at all ? He had been forced into a body that was not his own, he had been forced to wield magic that wasn't his own, even his own behaviour had changed. Was this really still himself ? A question he would have to find an answer to. He sighed deeply, the tension in his muscles going away, glad that Cirven saw reason. He really didn't want the CEO of the Company to take a peek into his mind again. Then again, he wasn't sure how that would be handled with how himself and Mars were now one entity. Giving Cirven a nod, he turned back to the Mages behind himself, only realizing now that this whole incident must've had some sort of embarrassing undertones. They had seen and heard almost everything. Turning a little red, the VP addressed the girl who had stood to his defense first.

"A misunderstanding indeed, Nessa. The curse that we all have to deal with is still taking its toll, I apologize for the commotion. Thank you, though, I appreciate your help.", he gave the girl a short bow. "I hate this beach thing already", thinking to himself as the small group was joined by two more VP's of the Company. He figured it would be best to leave the group to itself. He wasn't the best with conversation as it was, at least in this current state, and the group was getting too large for him, anyway. Giving everyone a small wave of the hand, he took a few steps towards where he had originally come from, eyeing one of the huts again. "Well, regardless of circumstance, I hope all of you have fun and enjoy the beach, the games and the buffet. See you around.", Mars cackling silently in the back of his head. "Well, that was a disaster, huh ? Though I wouldn't have minded fighting the sparkly kid a bit. Seemed like a lot of fun, tssehehehe ...", Johann gritting his teeth a little, speaking back in the same manner "Please, shut up, Mars. You know I can't afford that right now. Just behave yourself for now, and we'll find something for you to play later", stepping through the warm sand and back to one of the huts to get another drink. Maybe he could find some kind of game to play to unwind a little and satisfy Mars' lust for activity. Perhaps he'd even get to talk to mages from the other guilds some more ? Looking around, they all seemed like interesting people, and would certainly be nice to find out more about the other mages of the newly forged alliance. He'd wait and see.

WC: 520

Hmh… given his yet ongoing, short presence, he gathered a lot of new faces; the white-haired whose name was Deshitana from Silver Wolf as well as the guy with explosive hair color taste had thrown some tilted heads towards the shaman’s business. Hey, he was getting hungry - and to honor his heritage, he had to make an octopus meal. Wasn’t that something classy for a beach party, though? Maybe it wasn’t so fancy to eat octopi here… but he refused to let cultural difference stop him now. He would get down with his octopus, whether if you wanted it or not!

Turning his head right up at the taller Nessa and Arcadia, he threw them both a wink. How nice to see his guildmates seek some relaxing air out here. It was to be expected, and he was aware of her presence too - his Guildmaster and undefeated bookwork, Sorano. There was a sort of amusement area nearby too… maybe he should go and give it a check whilst the 5 Mura’s were busy with the octopi - which they intended to prepare out here, right in front of the two Fairy Tail Wizards, the two curious Silver Wolf wizards, the lightning brat CEO who almost turned him into a crisp on his way to Tolgalen back then (which was purely accidental as a huge kraken was the actual target) and a white-haired knight-looking lad who was scolded at by previously-mentioned.

There was a scent of juice in the air… she was most likely around here, too.

And as Mura dismissed the two ladies: “I bet Sorano is nearby. Keep an eye on them for me, please.” He would then stand up and waddle towards the carnival booths. There, he would spot Sorano near a booth with a basin filled with fish and a bunch of small fish nets that could be held with two fingers. “Hey, Sor-“ he was about to greet, but Kyuken - who had been awfully silent for a while now - charged from behind, bypassed Mura as if he was kerbstone and bowed in front of the Guildmaster. ”Greetings, Master…!” Pathetically, Mura was to be found on the ground, flat as a pancake from Kyuken’s stomping. He would inflate himself in a hurry and approach the word master whilst looking at the fish nets. “Oh, we should try this one… it’s all about precision and good timing, and I’ve been working a lot on those attributes.” He would exchange a laid-back smile to her, feeling just as lazy and carefree as in that train that they took from the tower…

Meanwhile at the sands…

“Alright, chourishi-tachi, stand-in-line!” a Mura spoke up to the other 4 as they dropped the octopus’ body. Swiftly, a rectangular box rose from the sands, completely metal and with the purpose of holding the octopus for the butching. The 5 Mura’s would step around, until they each had a section of the octopus for themselves… although, two of them argued over wanting to butcher the top of its head.

“R-Really?! Its head is like this long, just take that part over there!”

“No way, that’s not even the same-“

“You heard him! Now get in line, we’re beginning now…!”

Surrendering, the clone took its place as one Mura clapped his hands together. Sandstone objects jumped up from the sands beneath their feet, and as they each grabbed one, it immediately turned into a steel butcher’s axe. Rapidly, they each began to chop down the octopus’ most juiciest (and least lethal) areas simultaneously.

“… H-Hey, you’re cutting too much, its body is rocking over here-“

“T-That’s because we have the big parts! You only have to cut its tendrils!”

“Hurry up, then! Mura could be back anytime!”

“We’re all Mura’s! What are you talking about?!”

“Just start the oven!”

The metallic board where they held the octopus’ body suddenly reformed its upper surface, revealing holes filled with heat that would erupt as orange fires.

“… You know… that Mura guy… h-he’s really wasting his magic a lot.”

“… I kinda get you… no, I agree completely. This is too much.”

“It’s better than stripping down people’s houses just to see them naked-“

“That was one time! And Kyuken was under control, you moron…”

Kyran blinked as the sun shone into his eyes. A carnival was going on around him near a beach. He recognized some of the people running around. WFTC members. Damn it. He better not be on Tolgalen. He'd been sleeping peacefully in his apartment. Then Erebos....and now he was in swim trunks, no shirt in sight. "Where the FUCK did you bring us, Erebos?" Kyran asked irritably. The demon faked sleeping, not rousing when Kyran mentally poked him. "Hey asshole! There are kids around!" Kyran turned around to find a young woman covering a child's ears. He raised his eyebrows slowly. This was not the time to mess with him. However, if she wanted him to watch his language, Kyran had some colorful swearing for her.

"Consarn it, I forgot that, by the double-barrelled jumping jiminetty, there were little mumblecrusts everywhere. I am just a terrible muckspout surrounded by fopdoodles who can't control his beardsplitter worth anything. I'm terribly sorry, bejabbers. I didn't mean to offend a zounderkite like yourself." Erebos gave up his illusion of sleeping to laugh raucously inside Kyran's head. The woman stared at Kyran in confusion trying to figure out what he'd said. He flashed her a grin before walking away. A quick side step brought him between two carnival games. Here was a good place to throttle his demon. He was just about to lay into Erebos when a voice spoke. Perhaps violence isn't the answer here, young master?

Kyran groaned as the newest addition to his head, Eae the angel, spoke up. It's good to get out of the house and do things with people. You haven't seen them in a while. Why not have some fun? Kyran wanted to beat his head against a wall. He couldn't win. If it wasn't the demons, it was the angel. If it wasn't the angel, it was the demons. At this point, he wanted to sink into himself and let them fight over control of the body. Giving up, Kyran stepped back out into public. Let the games begin. He glanced at himself quickly as he began to wander. The stupid demon had put him in white swim shorts that hugged his lean waist. If they weren't see through, it almost felt as if they would slide off. No swimming today.

Meeting all these people was important. Seemingly meeting them all at once was a bit more than Arcadia had imagined. Plus, all those feet shuffling in the sand around her towel and things, gathering grit and bunching her towel up. None of it was intentional, so Arcadia wouldn't really say anything, even if she had the courage to.

When the clones of Mura transformed part of the area into a makeshift magical kitchen, she rushed to move her knapsack and towel out of the way. Thankfully she only had to move her towel and pack less than a meter out of the way. "I guess that's not the octopus king after all."

Hoping her things should be more out of the way now, she returned to Nessa's side and picked up her strawberry slushy or what was left of it. Arcadia had pretty much finished hers, and now slurped up the last few drops.

When big sister took a beach ball out into the waves, Arcadia didn't have to think twice Once, big sister was doing it, two, even if everyone on the beach went out too, they'd all be playing... something Arcadia could focus on besides the number of people.

Leaving her empty glass in the sand for later, she charged on out into the waves not far behind Nessa. She veered off a little to the right of big sister's path, making sure the way ahead into the water was clear of anyone else. Arcadia drew a deep breath and roared a frosty mist down at her bare feet. A short pier of sea ice formed under her feet as she ran the first few meters out into the waters. When she ran out of breath, the young slayer did a flip off her temporary sea ice pier did a flip off the edge into the warmer waters. Already her icy pier was being broken up by wave action behind her, when she surfaced laughing. She playfully splashed Nessa, also looking to see who else might come out into the water.

Now people were starting to crowd in. Leona saw a few more new faces and barely had time to learn names to attach to them. She was even more surprised when Cirven spoke to her and requested a sparring match sometime. Though the power difference was great, she did not mind. She had once told Eero that he needed to fight strong opponents in order to get stronger... she would practice what she preached.

"Sure, Cirven. Whenever you want to spar, let me know. I'll be there." Leona replied in the affirmative. She had just barely finished addressing Cirven when Sol appeared and spoke to her. She had met him at the meeting of the three Guild Masters and while their encounter was brief, it was pleasant. The blonde now focused her attention on him.

"Hey Sol. I've been busy doing jobs and introducing new members to Silver Wolf. An Ace's work is never through, but I wouldn't trade it for anything." Leona made small talk with Sol despite not being much of a small talk person. She had multiple projects to do, but they could wait. Today was a day for socializing with people from other guilds. More members of Fairy Tail and West Fiore Trading Company were arriving, giving the blonde plenty of people to interact with. Speaking of new arrivals, Leona wondered where Poko Monstar was... maybe the Guild Master was on her way.

"How many people do you think we have in attendance right now, Sol?" Leona asked Sol.

The pointed ears of the three foot floating child flinched as Sol spoke to him. The devil and dragon as kids had a tendency to not get along very well and fight over petty things like one simply speaking to the other. Cirven may have been the CEO but that did not mean things did not get under his skin and bother him which was exactly what Sol was able to do. It was mostly because both were in their child forms that they fought so much so they would naturally be different once they got their adult forms back but until then they could not control themselves well at all. "How the hell did you get alcohol?! Alisha yelled at me and threw me out of the bar because I even tried to get any! I should tell her that you are drinking then! She will take that away from you!" Cirven spoke out loudly before flying off towards where Alisha was the last time he had seen her. He had his guard up just in case his VP tried anything to stop him from tattling on him but made sure to also fly away quickly so that the dragon would have to chase him to prevent it. "And you can't stop me from telling because I said so!" Cirven yelled out as he flew away and stuck his tongue out while also pulling his eyelid down at Sol in an attempt to mock him.

Truthfully the young devil wanted Sol to react so that the two would end up fighting. He did not want Alisha to get involved like that as it was something that would just annoy him because he wanted to reprimand his VP for drinking when he couldn't. It was just that his mindset had jumped into a child's again and he had lost control just like he embraced it all.

“It was getting that way that is why I stepped away for a bit of room,” the mercenary would say watching the group with an amused smile before returning his golden gaze to the woman before him. “West Fiore Trading Company?” he would ask with a tilt of his head not familiar with the term as he blinked a few times at her curious as ever. Though whether or not she answered was beside the point as the subject would eventually drift from introductions to the elementals. As the introductions and explanations were made, the mercenary would give a small wave back to the male that passed him a gesture before being pulled back into an embrace by the woman who didn’t seem to care he was there or not. The concept of someone being madly in love with something was a bit loss on the mercenary who had never experienced such a thing; however, the pair seemed happy so he suppose whatever bond they had was good. “I see. Well they certainly seem like an interesting bunch and ones that keep you busy,” he would say remaining respectful enough to the woman.

When the subject of magic came up, the mercenary would frown a bit as he looked up at the sky in thought. “Magic?” he would repeat. “It is something called ink magic. Though how it works exactly, I am not entirely sure. It is something I was given to when I was little, but no one ever taught me what it is or such. So instead of relying on what I do not understand, I don’t use it, but rather just adapt to whatever is before me with my own strength and skill.” He well that was the surface of the truth, but he felt that was all that was needed in this case. He didn’t exactly want anyone in his business more than necessary. As for that tail question, he would scratch his cheek sheepishly with his free hand.

“I am sorry for staring, but to be frank I came over here because I was curious of your looks. Do you come from the ocean? I mean is this place home to you?” he would ask with a tilt of his head.

As Leona mentioned she had been busy the dragon took a drink of his rum and nodded.”I agree with you on that our work is never done but I find it very rewarding.” He said before her next question made him blink before he thought.”I’m not completely sure Leona but so far I think we have a fair few from all three guilds here and with any luck we will get even more.” He guessed before Cirven caught sight of his alcohol and then it started. The yelling that always seemed to irk him. He had a short temper to be sure but Cirven just seemed to know how to irritate him easily while they were kids. He complained that Alisha had tossed him out of the bar and he said that she would take it away from him.”Hey you walk in with confidence no one looks twice” he taunted before he saw Cirven take off towards his secretary.

Sol quickly downed his drink before he tossed the glass into a shadow portal and he flew after him before he managed to catch Cirven by the legs and would drag him back down to the ground as they devil told him that he wouldn’t stop him from telling.”Oh leave your babysitter out of this you Tiny Friggen Imp” he growled as he started to try and restrain his CEO so he wouldn’t have to hear Alisha scream into his ear.”ADA GET ME A LONG ISLAND ICED TEA PLEASE!” he called back at the other VP.

Current Appearance:

"Wow! This place is great! Look at all the stuff there is to do!" Grappa smiled widely as the twins stood outside the event in their human appearances. Both wore matching one piece swimsuits and we're pretty indistinguishable had it not been for the roses in their hair. The sweet and salt scents of the place made them all the more excited to go and explore around. If they heard right on the train, this was supposed to be a sort of celebration for the new guild alliance! That meant all the more people to say hi to! "Let's hurry up and get food! I'm starving since we left home."

The two let out an excited cheer before walking inside, side by side. "Food, food, food? Food?" Grappa sang to herself while gazing around at the sights when she should have been scouting for a stall or something that had food available. Their tour around the beach area took them to a few places, each with interesting menus to say the least. There were things called "fries" and "burgers" but nothing that they would know of. After about a few laps around the ring, Jellisha would huff and look at the stalls. "We've done five loops and don't know what anything is. Do you think-" She looked back over to see Grappa squirming in place. "What's wrong?"

"I gotta go."

"But we don't even know where the bathrooms are."

"I gotta gooooooo..."

Jellisha shook her head and went to the nearest food stall worker. The look on his face was surprising. Maybe they didn't see child employees here that often. "Where are the bathrooms at?" Her answer came in the form of a finger pointing towards the bathrooms...right behind them. She wore an embarrassed face and rubbed the back of her neck while facing the worker again. "Oh...Thanks." Jellisha returned to her sister who fell in behind her as they walked in front of the restrooms. Grappa looked at the two doors with clear confusion on her face. Doing her best to practice patience, her sister would cross her arms and wait. The waiting continued for a while until she looked at her.

"What now?"

"What do these symbols mean?" She pointed to the signs above the doors showing...something.

"I don't know. Do you have to go or not?"

"I do, but what if there's a trap that activates and it summons a super big monster?"

"Just get in there!" Jellisha pushed Grappa inside one at random and would wait for her by the stall she had just been to outside. The menu sure was large. There was a good amount of stuff around that smelled as good as it probably tasted. "Gimme a...Bahama Mama." The worker shot her an ever curious eye and explained that he couldn't because she was too young! Puffing her cheeks out, she just pointed to a few items on the menu elsewhere. "Then just two snow cones and a "fry" thing." Just as he was busy working on the order, Jellisha heard a shriek from the bathroom. She rushed into the door, nearly kicking it over while searching for her sister. "Grappa?! What did you do this time?!" She stood with her face covered, a very confused man near the sinks. It took a few seconds for Jellisha to realize what the symbols were for.

"Sorry about that! Wrong bathroom!" She grabbed her sister and hurried out back to the food stall. It took Grappa some time, but she was eventually coaxed to remove her hands from her eyes just in time for a rainbow colored snow cone to be thrust into them. "Oh! Food~" She licked the frozen treat while Jellisha popped some fries into her mouth and chewed away. Now content with their experience, it was time to waste some time!

That was, until the twins saw the familiar face of Adalina! The two ran over as fast as they could, Grappa throwing her arms out and hugging the woman. "Ada!~" She looked up at her with her usual emerald eyes. Jellisha continued snacking on her fries while looking at the two. "Hey. Nice to see you two again."

Cirven stopped as he heard Sol call Alisha his baby sitter and then yelled at Ada for her to get him a drink. A trembling could be seen in the small devil as he floated in the air and a mass of magical power started to build inside of him causing the area around him to feel as if the air had become more dense. Cirven's back was towards Sol's causing him to turn his head to look at the dragon spawn with his red eye. "I..." Cirven spoke out but then stopped himself and calmed down before laughing to himself after listening to Ada speak to them. She had helped him get to his senses as an adult and not the senses he had come to embrace again as a child. "Was the kid me always this quick to jump into fits of anger? Maybe it is because I didn't have that great of a life as a kid, huh?" His laughing calmed down towards the end of his comment and he stared at his right hand as flashes of the past came to his mind showing him the times when he was being put through torturous training where his extremities were removed forcefully in order to train him to deal with pain as well as cause his healing factor to be faster and stronger. "Yeah... Pretty much the latter.." He looked up to Ada and smiles to her. "Thanks Ada. I won't give into the small lizard's taunts for now. It isn't worth it really, especially when he is also having trouble controlling himself." Cirven gave a nod to Ada and then Sol and floated off through the air away from them still holding his over sized stuffed turtle. He floated to the water of the beach, putting down the stuffed animal over a railing nearby where it hung by itself as he landed onto the ground and placed his feet into the water. The water was heated through magic to be at a good temperature for everyone to go in. It was one of the orders that Cirven had given before the party had started. The young devil stared off across the ocean in thought of multiple things as he was alone.

As a portal open up, Quill, Lilly, Health, Alice, Tabby, and Archer all come out of the portal all in swim wear. Quill had brought some booze with him because its not a beach party until he gets black out drunk with someone. It seemed some people already started drinking without him, while the girls all set up their spot on the beach. "YYYYYYYYYAAAAAAA, WHO WANTS TO GET BLACK OUT DRUNK WITH ME!!!"" Health then said, "Master please don't go overboard on the drinking, you know how scared Lilly gets when you get to Drunk, although I have never seen you get drunk before." By the time she had finished talking Quill was already chugging down the booze he brought, it was a lot but he wasn't even buzzed.

Sol growled as he suddenly felt himself get yanked off of Cirven by Ada and he leveled a nasty glare at her as he hung there and then glared at Cirven.”well excuse me for reacting to the Midget yelling in my face about my choice of drink. After all I can’t get drunk on normal stuff so why should I be barred from the alcohol” he growled lowly at her before he heard her tell them that they need to act like adults and he grumbled and crossed his arms.”Fine Ill behave but he better as well” he said before he floated in the air like Cirven was and he saw the young CEO head towards the ocean before he suddenly heard the young leader say something that instantly had angered the Dragon greatly.

One he had been called short and the next he had been called a lizard which infuriated him even more.”THAT’S IT IM KICKING THAT MIDGET GREMLINS ASS!” he yelled as he shot towards the Devil intent on kicking the crap out of him.

Leona was starting to get overwhelmed by the sheer number of faces. She had listened to Sol and learned that there were indeed quite a few Fairy Tail and West Fiore Trading Company members present. Sol could not give exact numbers, but he had answered her question satisfactorily.

"Thanks Sol." Leona said to him. She took a glance around to find that more new faces had joined the party. Quill and his retinue had arrived from Paradise. It had grown by two new members since she had last seen him. The blonde recognized Lilly by her distinctive purple hair, but the other two were new to her.

Hime was sitting in a plastic chair on the beach doing her thing. She was quite tall for a young woman. She almost always wore headphones and frequently had a lollipop in her mouth. Leona was embarrassed that it took her this long to notice those traits. Leona decided to leave Hime alone for now and look around the crowd.

Leona took a swig of water from her canteen. She did not want alcohol because a fight might break out and she needed to be sober enough to fight back. However, she might go for a carbonated drink. Maybe something like a Strawberry Slam. It was high in sugar and caffeine, but it had a pleasant strawberry taste.

Then Leona's thoughts turned to something else. Where was Poko? She should have been here by now.

The young looking woman nodded, giving a smile. He didn't know the guild also had another name, but only those in the dark half of the guild knew that onyx moon was another name for it. Thus, it was easy for her to assume a simple answer, he likely just didn't know the names of all the guilds gathered. "We're one of the guilds gathered here today." Her face moved a bit, eyes looking at the big group that had started to break up a bit and... two of the guilds leaders were fighting and one was trying to break everything up. She winced visibly on her face before looking back at the new face. Maybe he wouldn't notice? At least there was so much going on. "...I'm not a special rank, but I still wanted to come to the event." If she had known it was going to be so chaotic would she has still gone? Well, yes. At this point it was just accepted that nothing connected to west fiore trading company wasn't going to be normal if any of its members were involved. She nodded when the other called his elementals interesting. That was undeniable to Omaras. "They're my family and teachers. I love them as deeply as they love me. Our bonds are what allows them to roam in fleshed form." That was true. When it felt like the entire world had abandoned her, those spirits were still by the mixed bloods side. None of the spirits looked amazingly flashy, but that wasn't part of their design anyway.

Lightening was supposed to be a bearer of energy and knowledge. Fire was a bearer of patience and foresight, even if noting ever officially called her patience. The patience was one of the things that allowed her to see deeper than most could. It also allowed that elemental to see possible ways to prevent a very possible outcome. As for wind? As mischievous as that guy could get, or fae like and windy as he could be, that non gendered spirit knew a lot about how people worked. Even if the child faced figure sometimes sounded and seemed a bit like a psycho, listening to that mad mind was the reason Haraka was even still alive, and one of the reasons she was as healthy as she was now. "It may not seem it, but wind is terrifyingly responsible." It was only horrifying because she knew very well that wind would still do something even if not everyone was agreeable. The woman had heard stories when she was a child that those who had tried to bind wind to their will had died. Of course it was as an adult that she learned that such stories were half truths, but the truth didn't involve fewer corpses. Wind always warned people when bonding with someone would kill them, but never stopped them when they tried top force him to be their slave in magic. Those people died  due to being unable to cope with the voices of the dead that were in the spirits soul.

The compassionate thing would have been to find a way to not allow them to trap him. Wind disliked it when people thought they were greater than natural forces, or deserved something simply because they were great in some way. People who would break rules because they could get away with it. This was why... he instead the responsible thing by letting others have a chance to learn from the mistakes of the dead. It didn't mean wind couldn't get angry or selfish, but that was another story all together. Ah, hearing about the others magic... why was it like so? "That sounds like a lot to pour on to one child. Maybe there's books on your type of magic?" She would suggest talking to lightening, but this was break and relax day. She would have asked why nobody taught him, but wouldn't they have if someone could? They didn't know each other well enough for her to feel comfortable with prodding for more details. "Well, it sounds like you learned how to handle it to some degree and that's a good thing. Maybe you will learn more about it as your skills improve." Ah, did she... come from the ocean? Well, that was partly accurate, but not quite. "I'm half of two things. One is a demon giant deep sea mantis shrimp. The normal non demon versions live in deep icy cold regions of the ocean. My other half is a type of ice dragon."

But she wasn't planning to call him wrong or anything. The woman spread out her large dragon wings and uncurled her long mantis shrimp tail. "You are right in that I was born built to survive in the ocean. I feel at home in places that are dark, salty, cold, and wet. At the same time? I rarely actually swim for fun." But that sounded so nice... "Is there something that swims in your blood? I mean a sort of climate you are naturally more well adapted to."

Arcadia glanced up on the beach and just noticed how many more Exceeds there were. She may have noted it, but only now away from stress of the crowd did it really strike her. She waves to Hoshi and all the other Exceeds she could see or kinda smell. The salt water made it hard to tell. Either way she waved energetically and shouted, her voice surprisingly loud for anyone more used to her usual quiet tone. "HI KITTYKITTIES! IF I KNEW THERE WOULD BE SO MANY OF YOU, I WOULD'VE BROUGHT MY HAIR RIBBONS WITH ME! Kittykitties are soo kyoot!"

She pouted for a moment for the lost opportunity of all those Exceed make overs she didn't have the ribbons to do. But there was still other fun to be had, like sneak splashing Nessa again while she was challenging Cirven to join their beach ball game.

While Quill was getting hammered, Lilly went exploring on her own, there were many new faces around to talk to but she saw some beach cats and ran to them because she likes cats. She picked up a tiny tabby that was only 2 months old, it was very cute and she wanted to keep it but she saw a lady there with her,"Hi, my names Lilly, are you with the party as well. Look at all the beach kitties, papa say they love the less sandy spots because its warm yet cool, doesn't get sand in their fur and they can get as many fishies as they want to."

That was not exactly the answer he was looking for. “I was more curious about what your company did. Perhaps I should’ve been more specific,” he would say with a small smile. He understood this was a gathering of guilds, but a trading company? That sounded interesting. He wondered what they traded and if it was maybe something he could benefit from in the future. Well whether he would get more information or not was yet to be seen as a small moment of silence fell between them as Deshi looked towards the group that had broken up into smaller groups or singles. It looked like Nessa was trying to get the child named Criven involved in play or a fight? He couldn’t say as he watched the beach ball be launched towards the other. Hopefully, that would turn out good versus bad.

That aside, he would look back to the woman as she spoke. “Neither I am. You could say I am fresh meat to the guild, but I still came just to see what I would find,” and to challenge his usual reclusive self to actually interact versus shy away from people. Something he had done far to long thanks to the other within him. Speaking of that other side of him, it looked like it was going to take a nap, the third eye looking around lazily before shutting leaving the human in full control for once. This was nice, but something he would not celebrate as he looked over at the elementals with a thoughtful glance.

“Family huh. That must be nice,” he would say before tilting his head a bit at the next comment. “Ah, so the one that appears to be the youngest is actually the more mature and responsible of the bunch then?” he would ask as he wondered briefly where the child had gone to anyway. Funny how quickly one could lose track of such an odd creature, but then again….he was distracted by other things wasn’t he? Things such as his past.

“It’s a heavy burden and I don’t know if there is a book on my magic. I’ll have to dig around to see what sort of records I can pull from later. Either way, I don’t mind it too much, I’ve just learned to deal with over time,” he would say trying to give a reassuring smile to the other before he nodded a bit. “That is what I am hoping for.” That and another thing that he did not wish to share here or with someone he barely knew. Anyway onto more interesting things.

So she was part demon and part dragon. He had traveled around for a long while and while he had met both separately, he could not say he had met a mix of the two. “How interesting,” he would say truly meaning that. He would love to poke more about the nature of the woman, but for now kept the talk at a casual pry versus a deeper one. He didn’t know the woman and he most certainly didn’t want to offend her, so he would keep his odd questions to himself for now.

Besides he was much more interested in what he was seeing as the woman put on display her wings and tail. “I bet you’d do well in the ocean, but if you like such places why not swim?” It seemed like the natural thing to do especially when close by the ocean. Or maybe he was thinking that was because in the end, he was thinking about swimming himself for a little bit. Whatever the case, he was drawn away from the thought for a few moments as he was question. “To be honest, I am in the perfect climate for myself right now. Where I come from the weather was never too hot or cold. Just a perfect balance all the way around, so I enjoy being out in similar climates. As for the cold. I’ve lived in it so I can’t say I dislike it,” he would say

Yona Hisamori was supposed to be doing a lot of things today. She was supposed to represent her guild and meet the other mages in the alliance, spreading the magnamity and heart and whatever so that the relationship would build and blossom up well. She was supposed to be spying on Kyran, betraying any details of where he was, what he was doing and who he was spending time with to the MindReaver. Just the thought of that made her angry because the name that guy had come up with was ridiculous and yet she still had to answer to him, for Key and her guild's sake. She hadn't seen Kyran in days and if she didn't report on something soon, there would be hell to pay for it. Yona was supposed to be training as well, practicing controlling her new inner demon, Ketsueki. He was in her head all the time, demanding blood be spilled or else he would take over. Luckily, he must have been asleep or something because he had yet to make threats about the throng of people around her She had yet to let him drink or see or spill blood which was bound to go poorly, but she was desperate for that information. She had to find Kyran and have something to report. It just equally meant putting everyone in her guild, and those in the allied guild at risk of being mauled by Ketsueki if she couldn't handle it. Finally, she was supposed to tell Cirven and Ruvel about her situation, yet she had somehow not found the time or place to do so. Avoiding them might be the best today in order to keep them out of her head and away from Ketsueki.

Yona caught sight of child Cirven, then Johann who looked somewhat frazzled. Her mouth tilted as she assessed him, wondering how he was doing with Mars. Her eyes scanned the crowd, the green hues picking up many new faces on the beach. She kicked off her shoes and walked barefoot around, wearing short white shorts and a plain light green bikini top. It was a beach thing after all. The over the shoulder bag that she carried held a water bottle, a towel, and a change of clothing. Yona adjusted her wide brimmed floppy straw hat over her short green hair and then pushed herself forward. "Got to meet people, got to find Key," She whispered, uttering her two goals for the day. As her feet squashed through the sand, she caught sight of Kyran yelling at a woman and a child. To her surprise he just walked away afterwards. Yona ran through the crowds, past Johann, past Cirven, past Ada, and past all the unfamiliar faces before catching up to Key. "We're supposed to be socializing you know," Yona reminded him with an out of breath smile, "Did you forget that today was the beach party with Silver Wolf and Fairy Tail? Does a certain alliance ring a bell?" She teased pleasantly.

Kyran wasn't sure of what to make of Yona's sudden appearance. Was she stalking him? Gaia wouldn't be too happy with that. Kyran took a deep breath to steady himself. "I didn't want to be here, Yona. My demons dragged me here, against my will." He pinched the bridge of his nose trying to figure out a way to escape this get together. No good would come of him being here. The crowds of people weren't helping his disposition much either. He hated crowds. They reminded him of the mobs that constantly descended upon him when he was in his home village. Something that Yona had said tugged at his mind. "You said something about an alliance? What alliance? Did WFTC make allies while I was gone?" He was missing more and more from being away from the guild for so long. The strain from trying to keep his brother from enacting his threat was beginning to wear on Kyran's mind. It was probably why his demons had managed to drag him to this thing.

Yona reached out an arm and patted his shoulder once. "Hey, it's okay! Just take a breath. You're here, you might as well enjoy it. You can't make a big scene in the middle of celebrating our new alliance. Its with Silver Wolf and Fairy Tail. Why don't you have a drink or something to eat and just relax for a little while. We could go swimming, away from everyone else out here?" Yona tried to make plenty of offers and ideas to assuage her friend. He had been gone too long and losing touch with the guild was not good. He had to take a job, he had to show up to guild events, he had to at least show his face and make it look like he was still one of them. Clearly something was going on but Yona was afraid in part she might be losing her friend to this unknown strain. She looked nervous herself for just a moment and then said, "We have a job. The guild wants us to follow up on those spiders and investigate a bit further."

Yona looked around and saw Ada and smiled. "We could go say hi? Meet a new person maybe?" She was rambling a bit now but she really just didn't want him to vanish into thin air again. She needed something out of him, something to report on. The MindReaver was not going to let her slide on a weak report two weeks in a row and she wasn't quite ready to deal with him on her own yet.

What her company did? Well... "The west fiore trading company is a mages guild that also does a lot of importing and exporting of a variety of different goods. Did that help?" It felt a bit embarrassing that she didn't get the question right the first time, but it was nothing that couldn't be fixed with enough effort. Should he be asking the other if their guild did anything, or was the three eyed male just confused by the guilds name. Should she say more? No, there was no reason to share more. She wasn't anyone big, no reason to go beyond the basics. There was more to talk about on a beach. Ah, this person was fresh meat? "What do you think of guild life so far?" It was always good to ask, even if it was small talk. Enough small talk could tell you a lot of details about someone, so it wasn't bad. Ah, did Deshi envy the family comment? "A guild is a family too, I'm not related by blood to my spirits." Well maybe to wind in a weird way due to how the spirit kept him alive so long ago? But that wasn't the point and maybes don't hold much here.

Ahh, how wind was, did it confuse Deshitana? What was a good way to put this? Actually there was likely no good way to put this. "Wind has two forms, two faces. His true size and face are things meant only for the dead to see. Lets just say it's safer for everyone that he cannot access that form through me in a physical way." Well that was likely as elegantly as that wording was going to get. As for his maturity? "I think his job has a part in how he ended up as responsible as wind is." Didn't make the spirit more predictable, but predictability didn't always mean mature or responsible anyway. Ahh, they didn't know if there was a book or not? That sounded a bit rough. Maybe she could help in some way? "Well if you look and have trouble finding it, than it might be in older books. A lot of older books written on stuff about certain small areas will push bits of vital information into them, including unique magics." It wasn't exactly the best tip, but it was true.

If they couldn't find an entire book on that magic, than scraps would still be better than nothing at all. Ah, interesting? Was he thinking about the mix? Well, it was unusual. What came up next was the very main topic on her mind, water. Her eyes darted over to the water, gazing at it a bit. "Swimming is as natural to me as breathing." It was hard to hear anything else or respond to it with the water calling and having been reminded of its call. Her tail tapped against the sand a bit before she decided to quickly run into the water, easily moving through the small amount of water. She didn't go too far yet, just deep enough to spread out her wings and tail, flopping herself on top. Though she was briefly content with floating on top, she might go deeper later in order to actually swim.
