[b]tidius[/b] [@t2wave] Tidius shot Ariel a glance [color=0072bc]"I'd rather not kill myself. I wasn't going to eat any of them, not without proper testing. I might be crazy, but I'm not destructive. And I'd rather not step on any of this"[/color] He collected up the last few, giving a sigh. The problem with these fruits was that Tidius suspected they would have a limited effect if he did ingest any of them. And the Master wouldn't let him keep a Phoenix Wing Wizard forever. Not that he knew about Tidius kidnapping Ariel. It was merely a stop gap to an answer, he suspected. He could learn something, he had no doubt. But would it be worth it? He didn't know. Putting the fruits down, he pondered it all. [color=0072bc]"How long does the magic usually last, when you absorb it?"[/color] [b]Master Jamie[/b] [@Conmhara] Jamie smiled, watching Zami, and then nodded to show he understood, using the guild marker to place Zami's guild Mark on his forearm, And then stepped back, saying, [color=f26522]"A little hint with those Pens, Zami. You can write with them in the air. In my homeland, there was a curious language could sign language. I never did get a chance to learn it. Anyway, I'll take you to Penny. Welcome to Phoenix Wing!"[/color] Jamie looked through the crowd for Penny, seeing her nearby and watching the Lacrima screens. Rather then walk through the crowd, Jamie called to Penny and waited for her to come over. [color=f26522]"This is Zami, Penny. I need you to make sure he's alright, while I deal with some of the other issues we are having. He uses a light pen to communicate, so be patient"[/color] Jamie was shamelessly using her S class mages more. Let them see the power Phoenix Wing had, and that messing with them would be disastrous for them. Jamie suspected that soon he'd have to work out another S class mage. [b]Penny[/b] Penny approached Master jamie and the boy beside him when she called her over, wondering what possible task the Master could want of her, unless it was to send her out to look for anywhere that their missing members could be. But no, it was to babysit a new member. Who couldn't talk it seemed. Penny didn't let her disappointment show, instead, she gave the new member a smile, Zami, Jamie said he was called. [color=f7976a]"hi. Normally, this would be the time where we show you around the guild, but that clearly isn't going to happen so that will have to wait for later. But I guess I can say that if you need a room,t he guild has some, and they take a percentage of your job earnings each month as rent. I think it's something like 15 percent."[/color] She explained, [color=f7976a]"right now, there isn't really much to do, but do you have any questions?"[/color] [b]Sasha[/b] [@yipeeXD][@lmpkio] Sasha nodded at Marlene, but gave a sigh at Lazarus's words. She knew that he was just trying to make her feel better, but..."[color=6ecff6]What if she gets hurt? Then it will be my fault. I should have just done this. Jarvis will kill me if something happens to her," [/color]She said with a grimace. She knew that Amelia would be safe enough, but she couldn't help but worry. She also knew that if she had participated in the event, she would have lost it. Beyond her generally aches and pains, it seemed to be taking a long time for her magic to return. Maybe it was the presence of so many other mages, but Sasha wasn't too sure. She tried to remember the last time she had completely exhausted herself, but even int he S class exams she hadn't. She gave a frown, as a memory, long forgotten, a few years before she came to the guild, surfaced. She must have been ten. [i][color=6ecff6]"Are you sure you know what you are doing?"[/color] the voice echoed through her mind, child like, and she recognised it as her own. Her eyes were closed...or was there a blind fold on them? In the memory, Sasha couldn't tell. [color=598527]"Of course I do, Sasha-Chan."[/color] The voice was even younger then her own, and almost familiar. [color=598527]"Sensei taught me well"[/color] [color=6ecff6]"Why...why are we doing this though?"[/color] She sounded scared, and Sasha couldn't remember what it was they were doing. Who was that little boy? Why did his voice sound familiar? What Master? The only master she had had before Phoenix Wing was the one who had taught her ice make. [color=598527]"Because, more power might be needed one day"[/color] The familiar child voice said, sounding oddly adult, for a kid she suspected was younger then her. [color=6ecff6]"but...you're powerful, Otouto"[/color] Little brother? the only younger brother Sasha had had died with their parents. Ben hadn't survived. Was this just an honorary title? [color=598527]"Only in time, Sasha-Chan. Time is my power. I can't do things like you, not really. When the dragons come, all I'll be able to do is give us time. You have to do this, Neechan. Second Origin could mean the difference for everything"[/color] [/i] the Memory faded away, leaving Sasha frowning.
