[center][h2]Damian Gerard|The Calm Before the Storm[/h2][/center] [center][@Caits][@t2wave][@Lugubrious][@Burthstone][/center] In the next two minutes, things happened just a little bit faster than Damian could keep up with as it was all unexpected. First Fleo joined the group, a member of the guild that Damian hadn't seen much of the last couple of months and whom he hoped was doing well, followed by the doors being thrown open by someone who was a lot of bravado and poorly concealed haughty attitude, though the Blade of Phoenix Wing would withhold final judgement until after getting to know him. Shortly after the doors were closed and Jarvis had moved to speak with the newcomer, the doors flew open with a shout from the guild master of Ryder's Blade, Fraquar. Apparently something had him incredibly aggravated, and it didn't seem to be Master Jamie. While the doors were still open, Guild Master Sanders of Frenzy Plant arrived and greeted the Fraquar and Jamie. Certain that there couldn't be any one else about to blast open the doors for the next few minutes, Damian goes and closes them before approaching the three guild masters, standing slightly to Jamie's right. He hadn't had time to get around to it, but he had been meaning to ask if there were anymore "Belka incidents" or if any new information had come around from the incident, and before the guild masters began their meeting seemed like a good time to ask, but he would wait until the trio had spoken with each other.

[color=DarkGreen][i]Redirection, every time. Meaning she's not going to engage in a fight she doesn't have to. Easy weakness to exploit, since she's likely confident that I can't touch her if she doesn't want me to.[/i][/color] Rushing in once more, Hunter doesn't use any magic, instead opting to simply attack in a flurry of martial arts blows. He needed to know if she was as avid to avoid a regular physical blow as she was a magic one. [hr] [center][h2]James Hunt|A Student's Tribulation[/h2][/center] [center][@Lunarlors34][/center] James braced himself against the tremor by grasping the table, having not stood yet, but shrugged as he stood. [color=SteelBlue]"It's hard to say for certain, but regardless, we have a bridge to save, and we had best get moving."[/color] He trusted that the others in the guild could handle whatever problems were about to rise, as Cody needed this chance to improve himself.
