[sylphid]

Nope. I just have some good senses.

[Not that she turns around to reply. Oh, there's the door.

Fie enters, disappearing directly to the right, up a set of stairs.]

[evervigilante]

Not enough good sense to stop and ask if they're open.

[ But he's not fussed. ]

[sylphid]

The door's wide open, and I hear people chatting. Stop nitpicking.

[By the time he follows her, she's at the top of the stairs talking to a woman who points out a few seating options.]

[evervigilante]

You're lucky I'm the only one.

[ As he sidles up to the seat, looking over the restaurant. Though restaurant might be stretching it. The atmosphere felt nostalgic enough for him to relax. ]

[sylphid]

Uh-huh. [Fie's completely ignoring his totally invalid points.

She walks after him, taking a seat across from him, in a mismatched chair. It's obvious she's unfazed by that.]

So what do you think of this system?

[evervigilante]

I don't have any strong thoughts.

[ It's similar enough to Zaphias that Yuri can maneuver around. That's the extent of it. ]

It's just a place after all.

[sylphid]

Were you here for the one before that? It was completely under water.

[So casual.]

[evervigilante]

No, I missed that one.

[ And it sounds like fun. Fighting underwater . . . how would that work though. ]

[sylphid]

Mm, it was pretty. [A small smile crosses her face while she remembers.]

But they wouldn't let us eat the fish...

[Well, that actually sounds good now. Fie turns to a woman walking by and asks about it. They exchange words, and the woman leaves.]

We're having fish.

[evervigilante]

[ Would they even have good fish in a place like this? But Yuri doesn't protest. It might be interesting to see how it comes out. ]

How did you breathe underwater though?

[sylphid]

[Fie shrugs, totally unconcerned with the logistics.]

Magic maybe. We were just able to somehow. Swimming was pretty fun.

[evervigilante]

Magic, huh?

[ Hard to believe magic still exists out here in space and in different worlds. But Yuri's never been too familiar with its inner workings. Mana was still new on his world. ]

Sounds like an experience. I'm sad I missed it.

[sylphid]

If you want to swim, there's probably a pool on one of the fancier asteroids.

[Because that's totally the same as being on an underwater planet.]

[evervigilante]

I'll pass. I took a dive in the ocean once. That's enough for me.

[ Yuri you nearly died, that's not the same thing. ]

[sylphid]

Can't you swim?

[Fie looks a little startled. It is a logical conclusion to jump to. Right?]

[evervigilante]

I'm a decent swimmer. Nothing special. But I'm not a big fan of water.

[sylphid]

That's a shame.

[Which part she means is up in the air.]

[evervigilante]

I know. I look great in a swimsuit.

[sylphid]

If you say so.

[There is a small smirk of amusement, though, as a lady comes by and puts two glasses of water on the table before leaving.]

[evervigilante]

[ He catches that. ]

I wouldn't say it otherwise.

[sylphid]

I just have to take your word for it.

[Fie takes a sip of water, setting her glass on the table when she's done.]

Since you don't swim, what do you do?

[evervigilante]

What do you mean? I work in a guild, like I said.

[sylphid]

Is that the only thing you do? All day every day?

[evervigilante]

[ Hmm. ]

No. But I don't have a lot of hobbies.

[sylphid]

So what about when you're not doing guild work?

[A valid question, right?]
