The Lumyian would find Garnet in the sparring and rehearsal chambers where a great deal of others were gathered, such as Blank, Cassius, Minerva, as well as Wylde and Ritsu. Garnet gave Itzal her undivided attention. "I'm fine, but what of you? You've been eating and sleeping well?" Garnet asked in a genuine attempt to show interest. Cassius on the other hand simply scoffed at Ritsu's showboating attitude. "Except a staff can't behead a dragon or kill a Homunculous... No, but Phoenix Ashes can. Mixtures too... Only then a staff can do my job." Cassius swatted Ritsu on the backside rather carefully as he gave an affectionate hug. "You damn fool." He smiled to him. "Yet what does that make me for being with you?" Cassius slowly took a step back. "You should get a few supplies ready... We're going to be raided soon... But we at least had a few warm ups, so we won't be caught flat footed. But let me check up on the fox. Unless you wish to accompany me with such vengeful eyes." Cassius found himself poking Ritsu's abdominals before taking his leave. Cassius found himself looking at Perrin, and a dazed looking Fox. "One moment..." Cassius cut in before taking a seat next to Hitori, stroking his head. "How is the fluffy fox doing? Or should I just call you my 'closest' friend next to others?" He hugged to Hitori quite tightly with a timid, yet calm nature to him. Almost as if something was bothering him; gnawing at him internally. "You feeling alright? We never really got a chance to talk since we been here. So... I thought we could before we are possibly chucking people from the sides of an opposing vessel."
