Penny nodded, studying Jasmine a moment or two, [color=coral]”Its okay to be afraid, Jasmine.”[/color] she said softly, [color=coral]”Its when you let that fear control you, that’s when it becomes a problem. I have lived in fear, most of my life before I found my magic was lived in fear”[/color] she seemed to trail off a moment, frowning slightly. [i]Curse him.[/i] Why had he put those thoughts in her head? She [i]wasn’t[/i] afraid. Not for herself, at least. For those around her. Killing Solias… it had show her just how deadly she could be. She wasn’t afraid… going to that island would be a mistake, she knew it. She certainly didn’t like doubting herself. Everything she had done… it still stuck with her and she didn’t know how to deal with it, even now. The thought of going to that island… it wasn’t something she believed she was capable off. She could be more help here, dealing with the flying fish, then on the island where she’d be a risk to everyone around her. At least here she was of some use to the guild. She sighed softly, [color=coral]”Jasmine… you are here and that’s a big step. And I’ll be by your side, every step of the way, okay? You won’t be alone.”[/color] She gave the girl a reassuring smile, before nodding in the direction that they needed to go. [color=coral]”Come on.”[/color] she said, offering her hand to the girl, before she started off in the direction she had seen the flying fish. It didn’t take long to find them, a short walk out of the town. She could see them from a far distance, flying specks that dotted the horizon. [color=coral]”See? just there”[/color] She said, pointing them out. [hr][hr] [color=firebrick]”This is food that can [i]eat[/i] you, Rajah! Gods, they’re almost as big as you!”[/color] Ignatius said, turning to his pack and rustling through it. [color=firebrick]”It isn’t edible! The skin is too tough and chances are they’ll take a bite out of you, as well!”[/color]. He took out some food from his pack, turning to her. [color=firebrick]”Now here, eat.”[/color] she said, handing it off to her, deciding not to worry about how little they had left. She just ate so much, for such a little thing… but he always found food for them, in the end. Frowning slightly, he looked around, [color=firebrick]”Quiet… people approach.”[/color] he said softly, his gaze moving towards the two figures coming towards them. He doubted that Rajah would listen to him, and so he reached out towards her, to take ahold of her arm. [hr][hr] Sasha looked over as Amaya approached, with Cecilla. She hesitated at the question. [color=lightblue]”I’m not sure that that will be a good idea. I think we ought to stick together… I don’t like the feel of the place.”[/color] she said, [color=lightblue]”It’s not about security… someone with Fairy Tail blood needs to be on the island first.”[/color] she said, glancing around, frowning slightly. [color=lightblue]”I want to make sure everyone is safe, first.”[/color] [hr][hr] Sam gladly took the floor, clutching it gently to her chest.She seemed to intently stare at the new comer, keeping her stance by Rose and looking up at the man. Tilting her head, she said softly [color=yellow]”hello”[/color] [hr][hr] Expecting the embrace and nuzzle, Michael endured both, seeming to hesitate a moment before returning the hug. "Y-yes... It's b-b-been a while s-since we've t-t-talked. I m-miss s-s-seeing him everyday." Michael said softly, looking up at Prince, sure that he was blushing enough to put a tomato to shame.
