"Are you ever [I]not[/I] completely full of yourself?" Kimi asked, wearing the same efficient, high-leveled gear she typically did as she looked the white-haired boy over.

Nero looked at her perplexedly, "Well, no... we're all full of ourselves... Isn't that..?"

"No... baka... I mean look at you! Geeze, you're always wearing some overly complicated get-up. Sometimes it makes you look like a prick."

He furrowed his brow, "That's quite the tone... Sheesh, judgey..." He said with a roll of his eyes. She had a point though. On the wasteland desert of the thirtieth floor, it wasn't entirely necessary, but his armor was entirely formed around the environment. It was still his normal, strong gear, but it was certainly customized to the floor. A red muffler was wrapped around his neck with a tan leather duster flapping slightly to the side as the breeze kicked the sands around. The muffler was fitted just right such that he could pull it up over his nose. Upon his head was a matching cowboy hat. He was given permission to dismiss the white of the KoB in favour of the brown-ish colouring for the desert floor, as many others were, so long as the red was there. Furthermore, a red cross adorned each shoulder of the duster and his back. At his side was a scimitar which he had only recently had made. He shrugged, "But I'm not going to change how I present myself simply because [I]you[/I] lack the originality and it makes you feel inferior around me."

The small girl turned absolutely red with fury and she nearly snapped when she noticed the teasing smirk on his face. Ugh, he could push her buttons... She turned away from him and folded her arms, "Where are the others?" She asked without looking at him, still trying to calm her attitude.

"They'll be here. I imagine Suto is winding down from last night's party, he actually took the last hit bonus from me... Which works, he got a nice pair of gauntlets out of it. I don't know how I lapsed for the moment, but he's getting really impressive." He stretched and placed his hands behind his head as he waited on the outskirts of Solis, the first town on the floor. The buildings were of stone and most of them were one floor.

"I didn't ask for the long version. I didn't think I'd be early... Why are you here so soon anyway?"

"I'm always early."

She rolled her eyes at his blunt answer, "Fine. I need to talk to that... knight guy. And Alphard. They're getting to be a really strong pair and I'm thinking that it's about time that I should stop solo'ing so much."

Nero quirked an eyebrow, "Hmph. You could probably jo-" He started before she shook her head, cutting him off.

"No. Not joining your silly guild," She said, giving him daggers with a glare. He shrugged and she sighed - why didn't anything affect this guy and yet she got worked up over every little thing? Stupid. Moments passed in awkward silence, though Nero didn't seem to care at all as he took a seat beside the house of a useless NPC, leaning against the wall as he softly tapped a senseless beat against his legs. "Finally!" She sighed as she noticed red hair approaching at a rather slow pace and the others seemed to be nearing from their respective activities. Kazaro, as usual, took his time with his stride, leaving nothing but an aura of confidence in his wake.
