Eris replied to Chiyo while holding a cup of iced tea that she had ordered as soon as they chose a table. "I'll accept your offer, of course. Not only will it have me in a better position to fight my foes, but also help the Ivory Masks achieve dominance over all of Deep Ground. However, I can only comply with it while I have nothing to deal with out of the game, though this is a rare occurrence in and of itself." "Unless you have anything else you would like to tell us about, Master, I'll retire for the day. I'll be online as soon as I finish setting a few things up with Cassandra. For the time being, I ask that you pardon us for our, Master." Eris said before getting up from her seat, ushering Cassandra to do the same. She preferred not to address Cassandra's complaints, knowing all too well that they would only set off Chiyo even more. They needed to talk about this issue, but the middle of the Mall was no place to do so. "I am sorry, Cassandra, I did not talk to you that much on these last few days. At least not about things that matter, about us and Chiyo." Were the first words that Eris said after Cassandra and she were at enough distance from Chiyo. "We need to do that, but first let us go back home, I would like to take a bath and eat lunch before that." That was when Eris noticed something wrong and looked behind her, [i]"Hmm... I seem to be missing someone, but where could have Dana wandered off to?"[/i] Well, a moment of privacy with Cassandra was much appreciated on Eris' part, so she was good with it for the time being. Dana would just coming bouncing and grinning when she thought it was good, sometimes Eris even thought the shark-toothed blonde could teleport around. [i]"What am I thinking? This is the real world, there's no way something like this can happen, right?"[/i] [center][img]http://66.media.tumblr.com/51fc61ac770a524e9468f174afa94d7f/tumblr_inline_n1xc79Kcic1rb3m8r.png[/img][/center] At the Newspaper Club, Emma had just finished throwing all the trash away, when she noticed Aaron standing by the door and quite immediately pounced him, taking his left arm for her own, before turning to Thomas and whoever else lagged behind as well, saying "I guess this is my cue to leave, Prez. If you need, you know how to contact me. Anyway, see ya!" Following that Emma quite literally buried Aaron's arm between her breasts, looking up mischievously. "You seem to be cold, Nixxon. I've heard that the best way to warm someone else, is by sharing body heat. Do you wanna test that, hmm?" She pulled Aaron down, while tiptoeing in away that seemed quite girly even for someone such as Emma, "Well, shall we go grind a bit, now?" Emma had a mischievous grin on her face as she waited for Aaron's reply.

You seem to have your friends to care about so, if you'd like, I can be back later." Yuuno said just after the blue haired boy which she didn't knew about left Asahi's room. While she waited for a reply, wondering what Asahi would say, Yuuno fidgeted nervously, wiping out some condensation that had formed on her glasses' lens as soon as she entered the colder ambient of the hospital. Obviously, the need to keep the spread of diseases to a minimum required the environment to be as cold and dry as possible, but Yuuno just wondered if someone had set the AC to a couple degrees lower than it should be? That was when she noticed the blanket which laid on Asahi's bed. "Hmm... that's a nice blanket, it looks like it feels very warm, erm..." Yuuno cleared her throat loudly, feeling that her voice had just become a bit rasp, while she was desperately trying to find a thread to grasp to.

Itsuko said with a half-hearted smile to the people that had helped her escape Chiyo's grasp. "I'm sorry for bothering you, really. Anyway, what's up with that girl? Did she not had her daily calcium or something like this?" Itsuko joked even though her ribs were burning and very much likely the bruise she had earlier was a lot worse now. Anyway, before Itsuko could even get a good feel of her surroundings, she tumbled to the floor again, this time a little more gently then before, when Hibiki barrelled into her, asking if Itsuko was well and what had happened. "Hi-Hibiki!" Itsuko groaned, happily, but painfully as she patted Hibiki's back. "I-I'm ok, I just tripped 'cause I didn't looked where I was goin'." A little white lie to not have Hibiki more worried than she need to, but it was nothing to serious. Itsuko didn't wanted her friends getting in trouble because of her, after all. "Wanna go up and play something? I don't know if Huntress will come today, so we could go play DGO if you want." Itsuko asked as she finally got back to her feet.
