The dining hall sure was an impressive sight, with the food all lined up like it was. One would have to wonder where they got such an impressive assortment but, really, such musings are not as important as the growling of Gale's stomach. He waddled over to the fruits table, grabbing a couple of the berries for himself. He took a bite of a Wacan berry, his face lighting up a wee bit as he enjoys the sweet and slightly sour juice seeping out. Gale could eat just about anything, but fruits were always nice and sweet. Sweet things were the best.

As he enjoyed his berry, Fio waddled up and plopped herself down straight ahead. She gave Gale an enthusiastic [color=9ACD32][b]"Hi!"[/b][/color] but didn't say much else. Gale blinked. With a half-eaten berry in his mouth, he replied with a muffled:

[color=6CB0FF]"Hai fyo."[/color] and only [i]then[/i] swallowed the food in his mouth. Gale looked about the room, noticing their fellow recruit by himself. Staring at an omelet- no, wait, he's actually eating it now. For a moment there, Ting looked more pitiful than Gale did up on stage just a little bit ago. The Minun looked at his new friend, then back to the Aron, then back again to Fio. [color=6CB0FF]"Do you..."[/color] he started, with a bit of hesitation. Gale shot a quick glance back to Ting. [color=6CB0FF]"...want to go talk to Ting?"[/color] Gale took a bite of an apple, staring at Fio for a few moments. [color=6CB0FF]"I'm going to go talk to Ting."[/color]

With that stunning display of socializing out of the way, Gale rose from his seat, took the plate of delicious fruit with him and then shimmied his way over to the third recruit's table. Once there the Minun quickly realised he had about as much of a plan talking to Ting as Fio did to him. Gale shot the other recruit a glance, then picked up a piece of toast to munch on. The munching was there to help him think through his next move. Gale looked down at the assortment he'd carried over, picked something out and pondered it like one would ponder a mysterious orb. [color=6CB0FF]"Fing,"[/color] Gale said with his mouth stuffed, then stretched out an Oran berry to the Aron. [color=6CB0FF]"Wan wan? (Want one?)"[/color]
