Loke smiled warmly as his old friend Maho entered his room. It felt like ages since he last saw her even if it were only a mere three years ago. "Wow... It had been so long since I had been addressed by that name." He mentioned wistfully, faintly saddened by the fact the name sounded so foreign to him. "It's very nice to see you Maho." He returned the greeting as his smile came shining through once more; nearly as bright as his luminous powers. Loke felt a bit out of place, back on Earth when a visitor came to his quarters he could offer them food or drink though spirits needed no such things nor did they have any to speak of. He sighed a bit flustered at his own confusion on what to do next though resolved to simply greeting the girl with a hug. 

Loke crossed the distance between the two, gently taking her in his arms and squeezing her tight though minding not to hurt her; which he knew would be difficult with only a hug though he was still mindful. He released her and flashed yet another kind smile, though corking his head a bit to the left as Maho mentioned his wizard. "You mean Lucy?" He laughed warmly. "You don't need to worry. She is nothing like... you know." The name to painful to even speak. "Lucy is very kind to us Celestials. She doesn't treat us like a tool or a shield to hide behind. She sees us as equals. As friends even. She would never do anything to hurt me or put me in danger I cannot handle." He assured. He turned away and seemed to pace to the other side of the room. Only to stop for a brief moment only to spin back around a bit flustered. "Sorry. It has taken me much longer to adjust back to being here. Habit are harder to break than Dragon scales." He joked playfully.

Katsu kept his normal, relaxed steps towards the gates before suddenly a red haired girl appeared in front of his path in an attempt to stop him. He came to a slow stop before her, a brow rising faintly in curiosity to the meaning. As she mentioned the flyer he had swiped moments ago a crooked smile touched his lips. He stifled a laugh at her attempt to intimidate Katsu which was nearly impossible to do. Nothing seemed to scare the man, it was simply how he was. "Your mission?" He questioned in a warm, smooth tone. "I don't believe I saw a name on the flyer. And I thoroughly read over the entire sheet. Now, if you want to tag along you are more than welcome. Share the reward fifty-fifty. No more, no less. Or you could find a mission of your own. I have no issue what you choose. Though if you come with me I expect you to pull your weight." He teased with a grin. He knew of the girl, he believed she went by Erza. Many people spoke of her skills and in the back of his mind wondered if what they said were true.

But nothing would make Katsu give up the mission. That was his ticket to paying his rent and getting the food he needed. And no one would get between him and his food. Katsu then casually side stepped around Erza and exited the guild hall, slowly striding down through the streets. One eye casually looking over his shoulder to see if she would follow.
