Rubbing his eyes with his left thumb and index finger, Umichi muttered, "Almost just like her." sighing afterwards. He muttered softly so others would not hear it, unless someone had a decent level [b]<>[/b] skill. [i]This is probably similar to how Paka feels in regards to Suki. Except Timi is just similar to [u]her[/u] instead of being [u]her[/u].[/i] Frustrated at his own actions slightly, Umichi kept thinking for a moment. [i]Well, either all kids are the same, all kids I meet are the same, or I am just getting everything mixed up. May as well see how treating her like that will be.[/i] Paka then spoke about making guilds, and left, Umichi called out, "Alright, catch you later." Standing up and walking to the clock, he spoke, "It's not like we were talking as if you were not here. I choose to bring it up with you here because that's how the party works. We talk to each other, and listen. It would be pointless if you were not here when we spoke about it. Hell, for all we know, you might not have wanted to come with us at all. That is always a possibility." Pulling out the knife, he continued, while tossing it up in the air and catching the knife and walking back. "Well, knowing that you are a kid is something most kids won't admit. If you don't want to be left behind, do not talk about being able to handle yourself." Umichi spoke sternly, as if lecturing, standing next to Timi. Suddenly he smiled, "Since you are a kid, it's fine to be a little spoiled. We won't leave you behind, we might need time to ourselves a bit, but you won't be alone. You don't need to handle things by yourself. Being in a party means to help each other. So, you don't have to try doing things by yourself." Reaching out his hand, he patted Timi, softly, gently. He was used to doing this. The way he was patting was soothing and comfortable for most. Hearing Suki talk about Shinobu, Umichi replied, "Well, all they said before was that they had found the 20th floor. I thought she wanted to expedite the floor mapping. Anyway, either way, I doubt we would just fight the boss right now so suddenly. What we would need to do is at least wait until tomorrow, and clarify the plan today. Anyway, I guess all we can really do is wait." He stopped patting Timi and placed her throwing knife on the table in front of her. "No more throwing these in buildings or towns." He warned her. Walking back to his seat and sitting down, he asked, "Well, since they are coming to us and will probably only talk for a couple of hours, what shall we do for the day? Labyrinth or questing?"
