I don’t have the drive that would let me take up such a position. After all, I am but a trained medicus A doctor of sorts, I suppose. If you want the subcommander, you would be looking for Sis’. My older sis’ in charge of here when Maria is gone. Chain of command and all. If she was gone I think the Quartermaster goes next.” [/color] It was clear that Klaus was not the sort to take any sort of initiative. The sort of man who didn’t have any higher aspirations. Considering his statement early, and his rather pretty-boy appearance, he was clearly part of the knights for no higher reason than for status. Or at least that is how it would appear to an outside onlooker. It was clear that his sister was of higher status than him. Perhaps she was the reason for his employment? There was no way that someone like Maria would deal with a slothful soldier. After all, she was a bit of a hard-ass in regards to those not taking action.Then perhaps there was another reason for his status. Despite the medieval institute, Maria still believed in egalitarianism over true nepotism, but would have to take in those of noble family. [color=00aeef] “ Between you and me, I don’t mind what ya’ did. Keeps me busy so ‘sis doesn’t think I’m doing nothing around here. That is to say, I would like to do nothing around here. Healing magic don’t take too much outta me, so it is much better than patrolling or doing actual knight work. Bit grateful for that.” [/color] Klaus placed his hands behind his head before saying this, dropping them and resting his chin on the back of his hand before continuing again. [color=00aeef] “If you are talking about the mission that Maria is undertaking, than I suppose that you should check at the Tavern. A knight named Tani is taking the signups there. If you are talking about the mission to which Sir Malakaus was assigned, then I believe he is leaving right now for the outskirts. I have to leave for the latter if you’d like to accompany me. Otherwise, I can see you to the inn. In all honesty, I cannot say I care too much. I’m just here on orders. You may act in your own volition and I will let you do so, But hurt my sis’ and I’ll be sure to stick a knife in y’er back.” [/color] Though the previous statements by Klaus had seemed carefree and without true purpose, his intent became clear once he had concluded speaking. Perhaps he cared too much for his sister. Rather than joining the knights to be a knight, he joined to ensure his sister’s safety. Even if he was but a “doctor”, he was still a knight before all else.

For most, this would just be a pointless maneuver. After all, it wasn’t as if she was trying too hard to hide her true emotions given the situation. It wasn’t that she really found the situation too funny. The real reason for for her laughter was because she found the somewhat childish choices of wording and bold proclamations by Shiina rather cute. [color=gold] “Of course you can have meat and rice. Waiter, I’ll take two bowls of rice and meat if possible. Extra meat for the young lady before me if you could.” [/color] It was clear that Maria didn’t mind spoiling Shiina. As if a mother looking after daughter, or perhaps more aptly an older sister directing her younger sister and spoiling them. Maria never had a younger sister. Though she considered an certain individual akin to an older sister, Maria was always the more meek and shy one growing up. Now that she was a bit more assertive, she did want someone to call her “nee-san” or something like that. But there was no way for someone like Maria to ask something embarrassing of Shiina. It didn’t take long for the meal to be presented to the two, and it appeared that Shiina looked to Maria with disbelief. It was clear that the girl was hungry. Perhaps it was cruel of Maria to discuss business with Tani before heading out. It was clear that Shiina was extremely hungry. Her eyes and drool spoke more than any word could have. [color=gold]“You’re cute Shiina, you know that?” [/color] Maria questioned to the other rhetorically with a smile. [color=gold] “You may eat when you wish to do so. I am not so cruel to present you with food and then take it away.” [/color] And with that, Maria began to eat the meal before her in a moderate pace.
