He had chosen their family to serve, because they were the first one he had come across? That was surefire stupidity in Vesta's eyes, but there was another saying which came to mind which Avery liked to say. What was it again? Beggar's can't be choosers? No that wasn't it....eh it would come to her eventually. Setting aside those thoughts she instead decided to focus on what else he had to say. So he was agreeing to join the quest to prove his wares? Excellent. Vesta couldn't have gotten much better of an answer than that. Really there was only one other answer which he could've given, that being he wouldn't join. Of course if he had given that answer Vesta probably wouldn't accept him. If he truly wanted to be a knight, then such opportunities should be taken with both hands. But that part of his answer didn't particularly interest her, it was the second half however. He mentioned now that he was a skilled hunter. This was something that she had already thought to be the case but she didn't view it as enough of a skill to be valuable enough to the family. There were hundreds of highly skilled hunters after all, if not more. His mention of being skilled at fire magic surprised her. She couldn't think of too many cases of an orc being a skilled magic user. A skilled magic user, while not overly valuable to the family of skilled magical users, always caught the attention of the Celestia's. If one had enough potential as a magic user, they would easily be inducted into the family. Noticing now that he was hesitant to continue piqued her interest and she gestured to him to continue. Which he did, and the ability he now spoke of had her interest caught hook, line and sinker. The ability to turn your body as tough as steel? Considering his fire magic capabilities, she could only assume this was a divine protection. Much like Avery's unique power, this one seemed to be one as well. [color=a0410d]"I see Mr Orgus. As tough as steel?"[/color] Vesta commented thoughtfully as she looked off to the side. [color=a0410d]"I'm sure you will have plenty opportunity and no qualms about showing this power during the quest then? If it is as you describe, then such a thing could be quite useful. Though I can only wonder how other families would view us?"[/color] Vesta stroked her chin thoughtfully as she spoke, almost seeming like she was off in her own little world before turning her gaze back towards Orgus. [color=a0410d]"No matter. We have always been outcasts for our magical prowess, the other families are jealous of it. They call us power hungry mongrels, so the addition of such a power to our ranks might justify such comments. But then again, I can only agree with their views. To our family, power is everything. I hold...slightly different views. Though such talk can be saved for another time, unless you have anything else you wished to discuss I have another appointment. With that of the young girl from last night."[/color] Avery's grin widened at Aya's response. His outfits? Well, why didn't they say so! If it wasn't obvious by his reaction, he couldn't tell that she was speaking rudely nor that it was a lie. [color=ed1c24]"Oh I have many others. I can go get a few if you wanted?"[/color] Avery responded cheerfully. He couldn't help but chuckle softly into his hand at her reaction of the tea and waved off the red-haired maid when she went to go ask Aya if she's alright. [color=ed1c24]"It's ok Ronni. I'm sure Miss Aya just isn't used to tea."[/color] Avery now took a sip of his own tea, glancing towards the doors as they now opened. Vivi didn't respond to Zin's taunts. It was best not to dignify her comments with a response of any kind. She simply shot a cold, dagger-like glare over her shoulders at the dragon woman. Whether or not it had the desired effect she simply opened the door now to the 'war-room' and now found that not only was Avery in this room, but two other strangers were as well. How many people did Vesta bring back last night anyway? Taking a deep breath to calm herself, she now gave a small curtsy to Aya and Dante as she went about introducing herself. [color=7ea7d8]"Greetings. I am Vivi Celestia, I pray my sister didn't involve you in too much trouble last night?"[/color] Vivi straightened herself up before looking with apparent concern at Aya's reaction to Zin entering the room. Did these two know each other or something? Or did Avery simply do something weird before they had entered? She hoped it wasn't the latter reason. Either way she decided to turn her attention to the reason she was here. Avery. The trap who had jumped out of his seat to run over and embrace the younger girl, yelling her name excitedly all the while. [color=ed1c24]"Vivi! How did your talks go? You have to tell me [i]everything[/i]."[/color] Avery chattered excitedly as he stepped back from the slightly annoyed girl. [color=7ea7d8]"Avery, do remember we have company. Such informality in front of them is extremely rude and Father wouldn't tolerate such actions."[/color] Vivi explained with a small sigh. She was used to Avery's informal and impolite ways, but he usually didn't show them in front of guests at least. [color=7ea7d8]"The talks went fine. But as to why I'm here at the moment, Vesta instructed me to bring Miss Zin to you for some minor healing from injuries incurred by their bout. I'm sure nothing is too serious, but Vesta would rather take no risks with infections."[/color] With that business out of the way, the younger Celestia turned her attention to both Aya and Dante. [color=7ea7d8]"Miss...are you ok?"[/color] Vivi asked Aya as she noticed she was still waving at her tongue. Had someone prepared too hot of tea or something? Well the boy beside her seemed fine... While Vivi was speaking to the other two, Avery giggled into his hand as per usual habits before turning his playful gaze onto Zin. [color=ed1c24]"Ah so you're the 'Dragon' woman Shiro has been telling me about? Ooh ooh do you have a tail?!"[/color]
