"Just give yourself time, I was flat as a board once and many thought I was a boy too. Did I mention that I shaved my head for almost 10 years before this?" Yang rubbed the crown of her head in nostalgia and wondered just how dumb she was, her short hair was a relatively new thing she had. "It took a while until a monster girl challenger realized I wasn't a boy which was hillarious." "I'll do the soup, it's been awhile since I cooked something from our temple. Clear vegetable soup, I'll try to add some potatoes and milk to thicken it." She hummed on the menu, there was no soya sauce, miso or even seaweed here. So she'll have to make do with what they have. "I just wish we have rice, I do miss rice," Yang said as she cracked her fingers to prepare everyone a dinner. [/quote] He chuckled to himself knowingly. He really should tell her. He really should. But nah! Maybe at their next training session. He tittered to himself while she patted his head. [color=gold]"Maybe I'm a late bloomer."[/color] Again, there was something kind of mentor'y about all this. She really looked out for him today, and he was happy he could atleast try to do the same to some small degree. Yang was a true friend, and his eyes twinkled at that realization. She finished her story [color=gold]"That must have been awkward. I bet you were cute when you looked like a boy too."[/color] And then he was back to his chatterbox ways, his harpiness showing. He raised a fist and a wing in the air. [color=gold]"Did you seize the confusion and win the day? And that's another thing - I heard about the whole shaving head thing, why is that?"[/color] Just meaningless conversation while they prepared, getting the pans, utensils going to the store room. [color=gold]"Maybe we could mix the meat in. And I'll get the potatoes and, I actually thought I saw rice there from last time."[/color] Ozzy left the kitchen, coming back with the slab of beef, and a sack of the left over potatoes. [color=gold]"No, that was soybeans."[/color] He made a mental note to get her some rice. Maybe if the jobs were light, shopping? [hr] The door opened and a swarm of people entered through the door (and hole). Ozzy was searing pieces of [url=https://therecipecritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/worlds_best_steak_marinade-1-of-1.jpg]chopped steak[/url], a marinade mixed with spices in the air, along with a little smoke... [color=gold]"Hey everyone! Welcome back!"[/color] There was a fire underneath the pain that flared up when a little oil sizzled out but he was quick to remove it from the stove top with a little surprised bit. He approached eagerly, but then remembered how embarrassing he was before to Morgan and Titanica, essentially gushing over them and passing out last time. He took a deep breath. They were guildmates, not gods. Well, they were gods... and then there was Vara and Nagare, demons and dragons. They were so all so cool. He felt a pang of inadequacy. He was just some dumb harpy who tried to play hero today and ended up almost getting Yang hurt, and successfully getting himself hurt. How could he possible compete with those four? [@PaulHaynek] He wiped his hands, shoke out his feathery wings. As he approached, Bart being his usual happy self and Ozzy feeling pretty proud for being to help out for once, cheeks pink, and feathered eye lashes flicking up. Haley was the first to speak up, saying she wasn't too hungry. [color=gold]"You don't know what you're missing."[/color] He hinted to the Siren. No Neil though. Strange. But this broke him out of his funk, there was others in the guild he didn't even speak to properly yet. [@13org] [color=green]Freyr[/color] [@Restalaan] [color=red]Ditzy[/color] The Viera had exclaimed of getting meat for his hobgoblin friend. His? Viera? Ozzy was once again star struck. Someone like him was like lightening, and he only read a few books about the Viera, so mysterious and secretive. And a hobgoblin, considerably more common but usually they forgo civilization. This one might be another oddity which was GREAT! This was an excellent opportunity. [color=gold]"Hey there! Welcome to the guild. I don't think we ever met yet."[/color] Freyr and Ditsy would be met with the big cheerful inquisitive eyes of a harpy that could pass for human. He extended a hand, his cape/wing following suit and ruffling. [color=gold]"Ozmodius Skyway. My friends call me Ozzy. We have marinated steak and Sensei Yang is preparing potato stew."[/color] Cause honestly she was teaching him so why the heck not. [color=gold]"It would be great to have a talk sometime! I'd love to know about where you're from. Culture research is kind of my hobby."[/color] He hoped he wasn't being too forward. [@Stern Algorithm] [color=pink]Sylvia/Vivian[/color] The lilarune introduce themselves and immediately Ozzy was smitten, not because they were rather spirited and summery scantly clad plant people, but because of the pot and platform that they use for locomotion. [color=gold]"SCRAWWK!"[/color] He squawked in amazement. [color=gold]"That is such a good idea! Its so simple and elegant! This was an amazing work of engineering, and would be a fantastic alternative for rooted monsters."[/color] Now if only most of them weren't so sedentary. [color=gold]"Its so great to meet you both! Another intellectual and a proper artist!"[/color] To Sylvia. [color=gold]"With you and Morgan, I'm sure any money troubles will be up and solved. Medicine is expensive."[/color] To Vivian. [color=gold]"And I can't wait to try your pastries! If you ever need ingredients, I'd be happy to fly to town and get some for you. Maybe we can have it with dinner tomorrow."[/color] His wings fluttered and he bowed his head. [color=gold]"Ozmodius Skyway. Just call me Ozzy. Welcome to the Guild. I hope we get along."[/color] he said, completely tickled pink at meeting others in the Guild properly.
