[center][h2][color=FireBrick]Damian Gerard|Returning to Magnolia[/color][/h2][/center] [center][@Joshua Tamashii][/center] Damian chuckled as he sat down and ordered a slice of apple pie. [color=FireBrick]"And you know that for me, price is not an issue. You're my goddaughter, Amelia, the least I can do is spoil you. And regardless, it was Penny's idea, so talk to her about price."[/color] Thanking the person for the slice of pie, Damian takes a bite before continuing. [color=FireBrick]"Anyways, how's things been? Been about a month since we last talked, so I'm a touch behind."[/color] [center][h2][color=DeepPink]Jane Addeson|Within the Fabled Hall[/color][/h2][/center] [center][@PandaBrady][@Silver Fox][/center] Jane shrugged and let Karn explain their unique situation before speaking up herself and answering the ones that she could. [color=DeepPink]"Well, to be fair, the guild's reputation is always on a knife's edge for the most part. We got the white knights like James and Damian that keep us from sinking under completely, then those of us like myself who are known to get the job done under any circumstance, albeit with some...small, extra damage to the surroundings."[/color] This drew a small chuckle from the energy blade mage and then she addressed the drinking. However, as she was about to continue, the young shapeshifting mage had a water induced panic attack and quickly excused themselves from the area, drawing little more than a shake of the head from Jane. [i][color=DeepPink]I'll have to thank him for the compliment later then.[/color][/i] [color=DeepPink]"Well, that's unfortunate, but probably the best way to handle that. Anyways, I think Mark might have something to say about that. He may not be much for words, but that man is a steady drinker and I'm about ninety-five percent sure he's drunk nearly double his body weight since he joined up. Fair warning, before you rush over there, he's not a big fan of unexpected conversation. In any case, we've got a few people looking into ways to separate two people into one,"[/color] She takes a cup of juice from a passing guild member who was acting as a server for the day and takes a sip, [color=DeepPink]"so I'm sure someone would help ya if you talked to 'em."[/color] [center][h2][color=5397CC]James Avelane|A Pupil's Arrival[/color][/h2][/center] [center][@BlackMaiden][@Joshua Tamashii][@Lunarlord34][/center] [color=5397CC]Herb gathering, huh? Seems like a simple enough task barring the unforeseen."[/color] Joshua, however, was quick to shift to answer Amaya's question and so he turned to his pupil, who had once more lost himself in the combat drills and neglected the Light of the Protector. Not that the Paladin blamed him, being new to the magic and all that. James had grown up learning to wield and cast his magic, even before it had progressed to the Light of the Avenger. Keeping on top of all of it was in his nature, between his magic training and his being raised to become a knight of the realm. [color=5397CC]"There's nothing to worry about, Cody. We can go over them later. For now, why don't you take a break and enjoy the company of your friends and guild mates."[/color] [center][h2][color=SaddleBrown]Jake Ronan|Winning the Bout[/color][/h2][/center] [center][@Joshua Tamashii][/center] Jake chuckled as he took a drink of the water that was brought over to him. [color=SaddleBrown]"Ah, too late for that. Lets say we head out to Hargeon here in the next couple of hours, have some fresh caught fish?"[/color] Jake knew she wasn't necessarily a fan him spending a lot of money on her, he enjoyed doing so, since it was really just sitting in his account before. Not to mention that Hunter had this job under control, so there was nothing for him to worry about. [center][h2][color=Turquoise]Jack Goran|A Meeting of Masters, Old and New[/color][/h2][/center] [center][@MarshiestMallow][@Cello][/center] Jack rubbed his chin thoughtfully as he accepted the tea that Jamie offered, taking a moment to pull out a vial of green flame and add some to the tea, the flame dancing upon the top of the liquid without issue. [color=Turquoise]"The primary issue, as it were, is that most of our requests are of the monster hunting variety. We've built something of a reputation as a specialist guild in the field and so we're highly popular for it. Suppose having a Dragon Slayer as an S-Class does somewhat build a confidence towards us in that regard. Though...Hold on."[/color] Pulling his phone back out and taking a sip of the flame topped tea, Jack taps a couple of different things and then some documents print from Jamie's printer. It had been a gift from him to her and it had made many of their more urgent conversations easier to exchange information with. Standing and retrieving the documents, Jack hands them to Priscilla before retaking his seat. [color=Turquoise]"I've already informed the clients that I've forwarded these jobs to you and Wolven Pyre and to expect to hear from either you or your members upon job completion. I hope that's sufficient for the time being. And these may not pay well, but should your members do well, these are the kinds of clients who get your guild's name out there."[/color] Jack had handed the Guildmaster of Wolven Pyre three jobs, all paying about 500,000 jewel total, that seemed easy enough. One was a delivery job for some wine from a well known winery, the Betalo Winery, to various locations and paid the best at 200,000 jewel, plus one bottle to the person who makes the deliveries. The second job was only paying 150,000 jewel, but was helping for ten hours a day for three days at a lumber mill run by Despardo Inc. Some of their workers had fallen ill and they figured magical help could help make up for it. The last job was also 150,000 jewel, but was the most intriguing. They needed someone to retrieve some historical magic items and bring them to the Museum of History in Crocus. It also included a reward in the form of a magic sword from amongst the items retrieved. As Jack had said, all three were well known for recommending guilds who do well to other potential clients, and with these three jobs, it was clear the Dragon Fang guildmaster had essentially handed Priscilla the keys to the kingdom in a way. [color=Turquoise]"As for a communal job board, we'd have to accept some of that new digital age tech to make it work. Simply put, it would take too long to get everything to all of our guilds traditionally. And I would still prefer to keep the Monster Hunting with us, at least until we can corner and get a look at one of these new monsters."[/color] [center][h2][color=DarkGreen]Hunter Jorgenson|Call of the Wild[/color][/h2][/center] [center][@Lunarlord34][@hatakekuro][/center] Hunter just sighs as Ash comes in and immediately sets to trying to rile up the other members of the guild. While he was always ready and willing to brawl with all comers, he didn't feel an incessant need to belittle anyone else just to burn the losers. [color=DarkGreen]"Right, that makes two, I need either one more A-Class or I'm taking our two support mages. Can never have too much support, even if we aren't expecting trouble. So hurry up and speak your peace, otherwise hold it."[/color]
