	The serious and cool face Kori had unmasked while in the midst of combat was replaced by a wide toothy smile once more, genuinely happy that everyone managed to come through unscathed even if their former foes posed no threat to the frankly monstrous party. Dahlia had mentioned that ability-wise everyone here was already well qualified to become level 2 and in the short skirmish, it seemed like that was true. Then again, kobolds and goblins weren't a particularly high benchmark to compare against. 

	But that only meant that they had to push themselves even harder! Part of it was the looming debt that shadowed her, but there was a deeper desire within her that wanted to see just how far she could go. While she loved everyone in her familia and certainly enjoyed her time with them, her time with them was more often spent making sure they don't blow themselves up than not. With this group, even if they were a bit disjointed and had little teamwork, was still just freshly gathered and would likely only get better together over time. Castor and Varanese were both a bit worrisome in how they seemed to only care about themselves for the moment, Obenn was definitely masking something with his airheadedness, and Kori supposed she herself could be a bit suspicious, but it was nothing they all wouldn't be able to overcome together with a bit of bonding.

	As Penn scurried around collecting their loot, Kori gave her a thumbs up and walked next to Obenn, her hand automatically and unconsciously already tousling the hair on the back of his head (mostly because she would have to reach for the top of his head, and that would've been uncomfortable) as she guided him to the next floor. Putting on an even wider smile, she said [color=F9CDF4]"I'd only be a martyr if I end up dead right? And seein' as I'm not yet, just let Big Sis Kori and everything will be just dandy nya!"[/color] And with that, she quickly repelled down to the next floor.

	The rest of the party soon followed. Kori took that time to stretch out her limbs and rest on her blade since there wasn't a sheath for it anyway, not that there'd be a way for one to rest comfortably on her frame anyway. Ears lazily twitched as she listened to Varanese and Obenn in turn before she chimed in with a [color=F9CDF4]"Oooor~, we head straight down and and then take a left to go straight to the Third Floor nyan. I mean, our ultimeowt goal is to get to Level 2 right? I'm sure meowst of us have already gone through the first four floors, so no reason to see if we can't push ourselves a little bit further for our first little outing nyan."[/color] As she spoke, her eyes drifted each person in the party, gauging their reactions, though her eyes rested on Dahlia for just a moment longer than any other in the group.
