[color=silver]“Thank you, senior martial brother. But there is no need. This disciple will be responsible for his carelessness today.”[/color] he grinned at Yuri and wrapped his arms around himself in an attempt to showcase his own form of accountability.

[color=white]“Nice to meet ya, Gou. Yuri.”[/color] For a moment, the student wondered if Luna would be considered his senior martial sister; their elemental techniques were not too different, after all. With Yuri and him having trained in the same way for most of their lives, could it be that Luna could have simply had a different way of cultivation? 

And just how is it possible for a person to have this much free time? That clearly meant she participated in the battle out of her own accord. A hint of inspiration surged in the disciple’s chest as he thought of retirement. Granted it was a long way away - but if he continued on training and gaining worldly experience, he was bound to surpass his elders and earn a name for himself. Perhaps even take a student or two in the future. Maybe even have a few followers build him a shrine. These were all the ideas that made him smile at no one in particular. 

At the mention of snacks, his stomach rumbled violently, almost as if threatening to eat itself.

Within a second Gou found himself sitting on the hood of the little sidecar, leaving space for Yuri in the one-seater. A strange creation, he thought, much like the Sign master. How did Luna get her hands on such a thing? 

It had been a long day, and the last time he’d eaten was just before he left Yuheng. The man was not unfamiliar with inedia, but the amount of energy used up today was enough to leave him dreaming of an entire bull to feast on by himself. 

Gou shot an eager glance at Yuri, eyes curled into crescents. 

[color=silver]”Senior disciple, Luna is offering her kindness. Let’s go quickly and eat.”[/color][/color][/indent]
