[Prompto's actually very interested in the technical side of things. But the demonstration is more what he was after, yeah. He sets his weights aside and approaches, just close enough to get a better look.]

Wow. Is it organic, or some kind of magic?

[He seemingly knows one and all, so we'll see what he can do.]

Oh? Not as strange as it might seem in the realms of time ... but your question must be one of your past?

....Oh lovely. Always good to know whether or not we're going to get attacked directly by the Gods.

[Ugh. Tyrion is going to pinch his brow for a moment.]

I take it you are good terms with both of these people?

Alright. Cool. [He'd stuck like glue to Ignis' side after he lost his sight in Altissia. By the time they reached Gralea, Iggy didn't need his help so much, except for a falter here and there in the abandoned and debris scattered keep.] I'll be two steps behind you.

[One of Lance's main roles in Voltron, he'd come to understand, was keeping everyone's spirits up. If someone was feeling down or acting more sullen than usual, keeping to themselves, Lance would usually be the first one to notice. And certainly, the first to act.

It was painfully obvious that whatever was going on right now was affecting Keith pretty badly. And as such? Lance decided to put himself on Keith Watch. Sort of. Mostly, he'd just decided that he was going to distract him enough so that he wouldn't have the time to just sit and brood.]

Something I think you're gonna like, daredevil. Just shut up and trust me.

I won't deny that I'm curious if there are secrets that have been held from me, however... If I'm going to find anything out, it would be better to know what lies in the future.

[ That's what's most important to know about the people she's to protect, after all. ]

Is that what keeps you going here? The hope to be able to go back to that someday?

[At least Atroma doesn't even seem willing to see what would happen if Justice's body broke down. Whether out of practicality or what, Riona can only guess, but at least they exhibit some shred of common sense.]

Just about anything. But that's not something we need to address right this moment. Honestly, I think it'd be more beneficial for you to focus on acclimating to the fleet before we worry about what you look like. Maybe we can rope in Anders to help, too.

I do miss seeing them about the ship. Though I don't miss tripping over them. [Little buggers always seemed to run between legs. Like cats, but less furry.] Mm, it is, but it's half so long as some I know here who are staring down three years.

[He appreciates the attempt, at least, and smiles gently at her]

I'll try to view it as positive addition to my wardrobe. I see gloves without fingers are a common style. I never saw the point of them until just this moment...

[Felix places his deck on the table and grasps Tyrion's hand with his own delicate but stiff-knuckled one]

I think it's the visuals that excite the mind. To be told is one thing, to have the very face of death staring up at you while someone says it is quite another.

That seems wise.

[Both focusing on acclimation and talking about possible appearance changes later. ~~Makeover: Extreme Edition!~~ He hasn't even fully gotten used to the mortal world yet. He has no illusions for how out of place he'll probably be in the fleet.]

Are there particular things I should be aware of, now that I am here? [Facts or basic social rules or basically anything. He doesn't know what he's doing and the Warden Commander has always been generous with her guidance.]

[Thanks a lot, Riona.]

As I'll ever be.

[They start out and, at first, it's an easy silence, only broken by light conversation here and there. It's Anders who breaks the quiet after a little ways in and nothing but peaceful forest around them.]

So...Justice...

[It had been a few days now since the spirit had joined them, he knew Riona already knew about him, but they hadn't exactly had a chance to talk about it yet.]

[ Zaveid doesn't mind. He gets it, maybe more than he says he does - he understands Sorey's reticence, his quiet fear when it came to joining their souls together. They had almost been polluted in the worst and most dangerous ways possible for a seraph and a Shepherd and it had taken time enough for him to feel as though he could be around the human without fearing for his life. They're back to where they were, now - better, even - but that doesn't mean that everything is going to be okay. it doesn't mean that it's perfect.

It's getting there.

Of course, he can't help the way he feels and it burns bright even as they move together, wings opening and wind moving against them like a gentle call. Zaveid basks in it, in feeling his limbs stretch out, in giving control over to Sorey even as he settles down, almost a picturesque kitten as he digs for the warmth and the happiness he can find. It's a unique feeling, being tied to someone like this, offering his Name and his soul hand in hand, and he decides he missed it. Just like he missed Sorey.

Humming quietly, Zaveid ignores the urge to shake his head. ] If we'd rushed it... Nah. It wouldn't have worked right. [ Which is true. There's no way it would've worked properly like this, he thinks, if they'd pushed before. ] Guess I should've expected it would take us almost dying to come back together again. I never was good at being good.

The balance is all wrong. You don't travel with someone like Rokurou and not pick up a few things.

[She could give some credit to Artorius, too. He trained her. But she's not in the mood right now.]

Well then, it sounds like we're going to have to get creative with some of our visuals, yes?

[He thinks about that carefully.] I know flour, or some face paints, can turn your face quite pale, if applied correctly.

[Actually the fact that it is out of character is what makes it comical. It's kind of cute, really. The corners of Velvet's mouth twitch slightly.]

Yeah. One less thing to worry about.

_{[He had fun memories camping... Ignis' cooking, their campfire stories... just them and their own rules, sleeping in and staying up late. Prompto's photos... it was so intimate then. They were in their own world. He could never recreate that and he could get nostalgic for those times if he thought about them long enough. ]}

Oh good, that's... less creepy I think? You should make an album of all of your photos. For all of us.

Ignis deserves it after everything he's been through. _{[Basically raising Noct and being his mom for so many years...]}

Good. Glad to do business with you. So... why no birthday? Did you not like my party or Luna's?

_{[No, a dirty rowdy boy is more like.... him and Gladio. He got filthy in his travels. They were filthy rowdy boys half the time.

And... that mushy heart was so cute. Noctis can see why Luna was fond of this kid. He was fond of him too, he was so pure... which is why it's so sad when Sorey continues about his friend.]}

What? When was this? Sorey... I'm sorry to hear that. Do you need anything?

[Asuka unexpectedly goes a little pink. She hadn't expected any compliments, just the breeziness of his presence. Not that she's owed them, either; she hasn't brought much in the way of offerings. She can't claim the lizard, or the terrarium, unless helping set it up counts. Even the cake is a joint creation, as tradition seems to dictate now. The sprinkle-laden layers aren't quite as colorful as the lizard, no matter how much they overloaded the thing, but they at least match the festive mood.]

[And rather than stutter out something stupid, she makes a rather poor effort of winking back. It ends up longer than a blink and a little awkward-- and pretty soon she's hastily getting out the plates and cutting the cake.]

Yeah. [When Kaworu says things like that, she's never positive on how to respond. Sometimes it's frustrating, like she ought to know the proper refrain, like a congregation answering a priest (she feels like Shinji does, and when he doesn't, he's probably saying something sort of endearing instead); sometimes, she just feels like he's being obtuse or airy. But maybe this time... maybe... maybe she can even lift her eyes from the cake knife and the generous portions she's already divvied up, frosting on her fingers.] Of course it's the right thing. It always is when it's somebody you care about.

[if it didn't the first time, it definitely does now.]

Um- okay, not to pry, and if you wanna keep it on the down-low, just say so. But I gotta ask... Murdock?

I don't know. I'll have to see if he's willing to give it another shot. He might be more okay with it from a fellow Fleet member.

[Keith did smile a bit at the idea, though.]

Thanks.

A. Fortune Telling

[Shay is still having a hard time shaking that anxiety, but she's doing her best to shake it. Time on the planet is sure to cure her nervousness, but instead, she almost feels it heighten. She jumps when one of the natives takes her by the hand to study it, but they offer to read her future, and her eyes widen.]

My...my future? That does seem rather important.

B. Shopping

[Shay still doesn't quite understand the concept of money, or even trading. This is becoming a bit of an issue for her, as she's completely fallen in love with one of the rainbow lizards. The little creature is resting on her craggy shoulder, and it's so strange that she's giddy over it, laughing at the texture of its' scales and the feeling of it moving around over her skin.

She attempts to leave with it, only for the natives to yell and stop her, jabbering about money and payment, but Shay just doesn't understand.

Perhaps you can help clear up the situation?

C. Wildcard!

We can schedule it accordingly. I'm selfish enough to demand dog visitation once in a while.

[it's not even his goddamn dog but meeting him once was enough. he's a little bit in love now.

though, speaking of clint.]

Hey, um. Are things okay? With Clint, that is...

[Shay isn't terribly hard for him to spot in a crowd. He's been spending some time in the marketplace today checking out the place's wares when he sees her, and immediately makes his way towards her. He frowns, however, when he realizes that she's getting yelled at by the shopkeepers.

Immediately he's at her side, standing in between her and them.]

Hey, what's going on here?

[After hearing an angry explanation from them, he deflates a little. ...Oh. Well. That'd do it. He turns around to look at Shay sheepishly.]

Uhhhh... You've never actually bought something before, have you?
