[@Ammokkx] & [@Ariamis] Collab Elora yelped when Antwon suddenly grunted loudly at him, and put her arms forward as a reflexive measure. It turned out that he didn't even notice her sitting there, which hit a strange note with her; she played with the idea that she was actually talented at staying undetected in her mind, before she discarded it as silly. Elora's lips quivered a bit, almost causing her to smile due to the funny way he acted. A laugh would have been a nice stress relieve at this point, but Elora didn't dare even giggle in his face. She got called a mouse again. She wasn't sure if he was poor-mouthing her at this point or if he genuinely believed she was a rodent; probably the former, Elora thought. Then she heard a familiar voice; Serah came back, and Elora was happy to see her back to her usual self. [color=39b54a]"Oh, I'm so sorry Serah,"[/color] Elora responded. [color=39b54a]"I didn't know. Please forgive me."[/color] [color=0072bc]"Mou... It's still meeeaaan."[/color] Serah kept up the pouting, putting on a little act of looking away from Elora out of anger. She couldn't keep it up though, bursting into giggling directly afterwards. [color=0072bc]"I forgive you! But now you've made me hungry..."[/color] The cheery sylph of the two got up and rushed over to get her own tray, filling it up and somehow managing to be back to the table at record speed. [color=0072bc]"So, *chomp* where's everyone else?"[/color] [color=39b54a]"I'm not sure,"[/color] Elora meekly answered. A lot has been going, and she's had trouble staying up to date on everything. [color=39b54a]"Utano's in the bathroom, and Korie, Takeo, Zan and Iskander were still in the hallway outside the briefing room. I don't know about the rest. But it's weird; Sigma should have already been back from the med-bay. I wonder if she had trouble moving Ian there..."[/color] Serah flinched at the mention of the med-bay. [color=0054a6]"I've been there... They weren't present."[/color] Shaking her head, fluffball decided not to worry Elora. [color=0072bc]"R-Really? Maybe Ian's just, uh... Getting some rest! Yeah, that could definitely be it. And Sigma might just..."[/color] Serah paused. She had no idea what to say. Elora did notice that there was something wrong with what she said; Serah's not the type to ever revert her smile unless it was something serious. She opened her mouth in an attempt to ask her about it, but then closed it. She started thinking about the situation, and how it could get worse if she made Serah sad again. She didn't want that, not right after how she saw her fellow pilots slugging each other in pure hatred. She just wanted to have a moment of peace, and thus kept quiet about the issue. Instead, she wanted to change the subject. [color=39b54a]"So, umm, what do you think of the other pilots? I've only managed to talk to a few of them, but Utano's a nice girl, I think."[/color] [color=0072bc]"Everyone else? Hmmmm..."[/color] Serah put her finger to her chin, forming a thinking pose. [color=0072bc]"Ooh! I like Sigma, she's so cool! I don't know much about Utano... I'll be honest, I actually don't know who she is... Takeo seems nice..."[/color] Serah was about to comment on Antwon, but since he's sitting over yonder... Not the best idea. [color=0072bc]"Korie seems a bit mean... I don't know about Zan... That white-haired boy hasn't said much, either..."[/color] She only had Ian left to mention. But... Not now. [color=0072bc]"That's about everyone! I hope we're all a giant group of friends after all this~! Oh! I had an idea earlier about getting everyone together to play some cards! What do you think of this idea, Elora?"[/color] Elora nodded in agreement to what Serah said. [color=39b54a]"Yeah, Sigma is really cool. She's so reliable. Do you mean Iskander? He's scary. He was carrying weapons on him, and Lieutenant Ritsu confiscated them from him."[/color] Then Serah mentioned a get-together for cards, and Elora smiled at the idea. [color=39b54a]"That sounds like fun. I do't know how to play, but I want to learn."[/color] [color=0072bc]"Oh so THAT's what he's called! Now I know everyone's na-aaaame~!"[/color] Serah swung her head to side to side, humming something under her breath. She ignored Elora for a bit until she caught herself dozing off again, jumping back in surprise. [color=0072bc]"O-Oh! S-Sorry for that... Ehehe... I can teach you! But first I need to get everyone together... And find a good time for it... Mou, why is this so hard?"[/color] The blue-haired bubble of joy puted again, then coincidentally looked down. [color=0072bc]"M-My food! It'll get cold! Nooo ;~;"[/color] Serah quickly grabbed her eating utensils, starting to stuff her face. [color=39b54a]"O-Oh!"[/color] Elora verbally reacted to Serah. [color=39b54a]"Okay, umm...mine's getting colder too..."[/color] She awkwardly said, and focused on her own food too.
