[color=#A84B5E]“The [i]orbiter[/i] is Enos.”[/color]

She motioned to across the room, toward Aaginim and the people around him.

Enos, despite his preference for running with women he personally found attractive, was a mainstay of Aaginim’s group. Enos played healer in the back-lines, though he was competent as DPS if he needed to defend himself. He played like some kind of agile cleric.

[color=#A84B5E]“He’s Club Aaginim. You didn’t notice him a few months ago because he was in the rear flanks.”[/color] She paused, looking at him, [color=#A84B5E]“As he likes to be.”[/color]

Enos eyed Rael, giving her a ‘what’s that supposed to mean’ look, before clearing the air. “Yes, that’s me. Enos the Silver Guardian. Ranked [i]17th[/i] in healer’s all-time. Pleased to meet you, Alja. Again.”

Rael took a drink of the ale in front of her as the two continued their small-talk. Enos wasn’t [i]lying[/i]. He was one of the better healers she’s had, though his reputation as being a little [i]handsy[/i] was well earned. The reason he was a pariah was pretty clear. Man needed a cold shower. Maybe twelve. But it was what it was. Rael didn’t make a habit of caring so much. After all, he never tried to push boundaries too much, even when PvP was toggled. He was more of a voyeur than a predator. She wasn’t too surprised Alja didn’t remember him. But then again, Alja was kind of a dunderhead. A very loud one who tended to take the spotlight away from moments that Rael personally liked to have. It’s why she had been going out of her way to avoid places Alja liked to travel to. They hadn’t worked with each other in months. But, shit happens and she was likely stuck in another queue with the off-tank. 

Could’ve been worse.

[color=F9FF22]“Aha, what a pleasant surprise to see you two, [i]healthy[/i]. How long has it been since we’ve been together in a raid or spoken to each other?”[/color]

[i]And it got worse.[/i]

As if interacting with someone she disliked being around and that one of the principal members of raid didn’t like Rael personally was bad enough, there had to be another wrench thrown into the machine. Kalie “Augustine” was another person Rael didn’t particularly like. Fake smiles galore. Basically the exact image of the girl’s at Tokyo U that got more attention than her but more bubbly, blonde, and pretty. 

Rael ignored her initial smalltalk, grabbing her now empty tankard off the table.

[color=#A84B5E]“Don’t mind me. Getting more ale.”[/color] Rael uttered bluntly, trying not to show her initial annoyance, leaving Alja, Kalie, and Enos to talk amongst themselves.
