"I knew it! I fucking knew it was her!" Glass exclaimed, nearly jumping up in her own enthusiasm. "What the hell is she doing here? That's fucking weird. Oh my god. Wow."

She shook her head. "What? No, I'm not a fan. But any punk musician this side of the year 2010 has heard of Roque fucking Rayes." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:22 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu just made a small sound before he just stood there dumbfounded. "...Uhhhh..." He blinked. "Y-Yeah..?" He glanced over at Eben before he looked back at Glass. "..I uhm...do you..need something from her..?"

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:24 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben hadnt heard of Roque until now and was just mildly confused. He looked back at Inu, and then at Glass, waiting for the conversation to continue, he disliked talking unless he had to.

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:25 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"What? No- well, I'd like to know why the fuck she's attending a mystery church tournament. Don't big-shot musicians have better things to do with their time? But if you don't know that, then no." Glass shook her head. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:27 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"......" Inu just stared at the ground before he shrugged. "I uhm. I don't know why she's here..but you can ask her if you'd like.." Inu glanced off to the side. "I'm...mm..I'm just a friend..of hers..helping her out with her things is all.."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:37 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"Why are you attending this mystery church tournament?" Eben interjected, albeit unintentionally, suddenly curious. Surely this person too would have better things to do with her time if she thought others did.

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:38 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"I'm not a big-shot, I've got time to waste on stupid shit like this." Glass answered Eben curtly, and turned back to Inu. "How'd you get roped into doing all this? Please telling me she's paying you, at least." @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[7:45 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Well- uh- no?" Inu looked over to where Eben was. "I just...mmm..met her today but...why does it matter if she's paying me...?" He questioned. "I'm just helping her..I don't need to be paid..to do that.."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:48 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben could accept that answer, tilting his head slightly. The stone-half of his face glinted strangely in the growing light of morning.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[7:51 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"So you're doing unpaid labor.... for someone you just met." Glass furrowed her brow. "... that's- no. I won't say anything. I won't get caught up. If you're okay wasting your time like that, s'pose it's fine by me." @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[7:53 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Well..was it really unpaid? Roque said she'd be helping him out later on, so Inu would much rather do what she wanted if she can help him out free of charge. Aside from the weird blood thing she was talking about of course.

Inu didn't say anything in response, instead he just nodded. What else was he supposed to say exactly..?

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[8:02 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben frowned. Glass certainly had a little bit of a point, but Eben didn't consider watching luggage to be labour, more of a favour.

"You're welcome to watch the luggage instead if you think he's wasting his time, since you seem to have 'time to waste'." Eben stated after the moment of silence in which he realized Inu wasn't responding.

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:05 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"I don't care what happens to her luggage." Glass shrugged. She narrowed her eyes as she looked over Eben, but didn't say anything about his weird face or slightly rude comments. @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[8:07 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"..." Inu looked up from the ground and kinda made a small sound in the back of his throat before he rubbed his eyes. "...I just don't want her to get mad...or anything.." Inu spoke up. "So..uhm. Yeah..I just agreed to watch..its okay..I am uhm..nervous talking to others so..kinda hanging here...mm..is niceish.."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[8:13 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben nodded after a moment, as he'd found his way over here for similar reasons. He only met Glass' eyes as she looked at him, finally taking a moment to examine her and her less-human features. He truly had no clue what to make of her.

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:14 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"All I'm saying is that's not what I would've done.'" Glass shrugged. She turned to Eben as he glanced over her, and stuck her tongue out. :P @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[8:33 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben simply tilted his head a little and raised an eyebrow, folding his arms.

[9:22 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"..." Inu blinked. "...Okay?" He tilted his head. He frowned a bit before looking around then back at Glass. "I can tell her you..say hi or something.."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[9:24 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"You don't need to. I'd rather introduce myself, anyways." Glass said, and put her hands on her hips. "Speaking of, name's Glass." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[9:34 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben nodded by way of acknowledging her introduction.

"Is that what you are made of?" He asked finally. "You don't seem to have skin."

He gave her a glance.

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[9:50 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Inu." They introduced themself before they looked over at Glass. Huh. Eben was right. Inu didn't really comment on it but it was probably something to note. "...I have skin." Inu said blankly. Very useful.

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[9:52 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Glass immediately turned to Eben, ignoring Inu's introduction and his weird skin comment.

"Well. Who taught you manners?" She said, out of shock more than anything. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[9:58 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Pause. "Thank you for the clarification, Inu." He wasn't even being sarcastic or anything he just had no other way of responding. He looked back at Glass after hearing her comment.

"No one of importance. Would you like to answer the question?" Again, no sarcasm or anything.

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[5:55 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"...That's pretty unique you are made of...mm..glass.." Inu said quietly. "Not in a bad way..I mean it as a compliment. I promise." He glanced up at her.

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[5:57 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Glass looked at Eben. "Seems your friend here's more observant than you. I'll admit it, no point hiding it now or ever." She shrugged, a bit dramatically. "I am made of glass- from my head to my toes, it's all glass. You can ask me questions if you want but I'm not answering stupid ones." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:51 AM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben had thought her skin was made of glass, however looks can be deceiving and he thought it better to ask. He felt no need to comment on her insult however. For a brief moment they wondered if she could shatter.

"I am not sure I have anything more to ask that you wouldn't consider stupid."

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[9:40 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu tilted his head to the side for a moment, blinking curiously. "How do you brush your hair?" He asked. "Or is it just like that naturally...that's..mmm..cool..I wish my hair would kinda just not be super messy all the time.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[9:42 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"I don't need to brush it, it just kinda stays in this style naturally." Glass said, though she ruffled her own hair a bit to prove how it didn't easily change shape. "You should invest in some good hair gel, or something, if you want to keep your hair in one style all the time." Great advice from Glass. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[9:46 AM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Ebens face lifted from it's typical rbf as Glass ruffled her hair. He really liked that sound, actually, too bad he was so obviously staring now. He looked like a cat who'd just discovered its own reflection.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[12:36 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"..Huh." Inu said with a small blink. "I see." Then he looked over at Eben before back at Glass. "Maybe...mmm..I don't know. Sorry..that as a weird question wasn't it..? I was just curious...since well..if your made of glass.." Inu gestured his hands. "..I will..stop. Talking now."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[12:45 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Eh, it's not the weirdest question I've ever gotten. You're chill." Glass shrugged. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[12:49 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben let the silence stay for a moment, debating whether he wanted to ask his question or not, especially as it could partially pertain to himself.

"Is being made of glass related to your abilities, or maybe a side-effect of them?"

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[12:51 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

That's a good question. Inu nodded along to Eben before he let out a small yawn, rubbing at his eyes sleepily. "Mmm...side-effect..?" He asked softly. "Do you control glass or something...?"

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[12:52 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Bingo." Glass did finger guns to Inu. "I control glass, I can turn things into glass, I'm made of glass, all the fun stuff." She turned to Eben. "So yeah, side effect of my powers." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[1:00 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"I see." Eben nodded, not expecting the similarities really, though part of it could have been obvious due to his appearance.

"Mine act similar, to a fault."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[1:54 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"...My powers mm..are portals." Inu took a few steps back. "Sorrh..I think..I feel a sleep..aytack..coming on....?" He looked over at Eben, taking a few steps closer to him.

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[1:58 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Hm? You too?" Glass looked to Eben, intrigued, but suddenly grew worried as Inu swayed closer to Eben. "Whoa- what? What's happening?" @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[2:06 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben stepped closer to Inu in turn, getting ready just in case.

"Inu is prone to fall asleep randomly and with little warning. And yes, me too, but not with glass."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[2:36 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Narcolep..sy..." Inu mumbled before he dropped into Eben's arms, asleep. Thankfully, Inu was very light so Eben would be able to hold him up.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[2:41 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Whoa!" Glass stepped back as Inu fell. Sorry, but she's not equipped to handle a bad fall, and Eben already looked ready to catch him. "Oof, that sucks. Is he okay?" @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[3:01 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"he'll be alright." Eben scooped Inu up bridal style like it was nothing, finding it more comfortable that way. He seemed particularly careful not to let Inu touch much of his skin, particularly his hands, which were gloved.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[3:37 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu was just clocked out. Snork mimi. Though after about two minutes he blinked open his eyes, staring up at Eben. "...Mm..?"

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[3:37 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Glass stared at Inu with wide eyes. "You good?" @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[3:39 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben looked down at Inu, waiting for his response to Glass' question instead of restating it. It also did not occur to him to put down Inu for some reason.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[3:43 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"...Uhm." Inu continued to stare at Eben his face bright with color. He glanced at Glass and gave a small nod. "Y-Yeah. Narcolepsy...I'm uhm..prone to falling asleep..sometimes..can't control it.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[3:45 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"That sucks. Glad you're okay at the moment, though." Glass said, rather objectively. She looked between Eben and Inu, sensing something a bit homosexual. "Kinda a bad condition to be fighting in a tournament with, though, don'tya think?" @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[3:53 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

It took Eben a moment to notice Inu's face, he wondered why Inu would be embarrassed if Eben had offered his help in the first place. Embarrassment, yeah that's what it was. Either way, he didn't want to prolong it if Inu felt bad so he gingerly put Inu back down, making sure he was steady on his feet.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[4:05 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu shifted a bit before he stood up properly and offered Eben a smile before he nodded. "Y-Yeah...I don't..plan to win...I just need a place to stay and food is nice...Roque did say she'd help me out too so.." Inu trailed off. "So..I hope it all works out then.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[4:09 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Glass briefly glanced over to where Roque was doing... whatever the fuck that was. "Yeah.... good luck with that, I guess?" This guy seemed really pathetic. Oof. "Hope it all works out for you. What about you, Eben? You here to win?" @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[4:45 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben paused.

"Yes, however the food and room is also an incentive, as is the question of this church's motives."

He seemed to have taken a moment to think about his answer, unlike usual.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[5:37 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu glanced at Eben before back at Glass. "Mhm..very weird letter..I don't even know how I could have gotten it..I don't exactly..got a home address or anything." Inu sighed. "It's...all very odd..it makes me uneasy.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[5:39 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Yeah. It all sounds pretty spooky, if you ask me." Glass nodded in thought. "Never heard of this church before, either, but what do I know, I haven't been inside a church since I was ten." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[5:49 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben wondered if whatever God they prayed to was aware that their hand was being used this way.

"In any case, we are here. I intend to find out what is in store."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[6:35 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"...I never believed in a God or anything.." Inu said quietly. "I just want somewhere warm to stay...I am curious about..what's gonna happen but mmm...I don't want to cause any fights...I'll probably just let people win.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[6:36 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Well, they did say to dress warmly so... we'll hope it's warm." Glass hummed. "Maybe, since they're a church and all, they give us a lot of free stuff in the name of charity. That would be sweet." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[6:39 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"Cold is no longer a problem for me, so long as I don't get any water on myself." Eben replied. "I didn't think I would lose anything by coming here, even if I do not win."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[6:41 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu shivered at the mention of the cold. He...clearly wasn't prepared for it. Not with his outfit. "Mmm..they said they'd provide some warm clothes which is really nice." Inu shuddered a bit. "My clothes aren't the warmest.."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[6:43 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Yeah, I don't get cold easily, either... I've just got this, though, and like one extra jacket." Glass shrugged. "You never did tell me your powers, Eben. Now I'm curious." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:07 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben looked at Inu as he shuddered, and then at Glass as Eben took off the brown leather coat he was wearing and offered it to Inu, speaking to Glass as he did so.

"Petrification, for the most part. Unfortunately I don't have good control over it for now."

Without the coat, he was only wearing wrist-length gloves and a black Tshirt with a worn band logo on it, as well as the fact that his left arm was also hard and grey, trailing up his neck and face.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[7:19 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu glanced over at Eben, blinking at him with a bit of a confused expression as he was offered the jacket. Inu looked...absolutely shocked at Eben's kindness but took the coat and slipped it on.

"I get that...I struggle with my powers too..." Inu looked at his hands. "My portals..take a lot of energy to produce...or well..bigger ones do..smaller ones...mmm..They're a bit easier."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:25 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Oh, that does sound similar to mine." Glass hummed. "But with stone, instead of glass, yeah?"

She didn't say much about her own struggles with her powers. "Hope you get that figured out, lil' bro." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:33 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

He raised an eyebrow. Lil bro? Eben nodded.

"It is interesting that our abilities are similar" he remarked to Glass, before looking at Inu.

"Does that contribute to your narcolepsy?" He asked.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[7:35 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu shook his head. "No...but it can..? Sometimes...? Uhm. Like if I create a big one I can get super tired and drained..." Inu explained. "That makes sense..?"

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:37 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Yeah, that makes sense. I got a shit tone of joint pain because of my powers, and it tends to flare up whenever I use them too much, so that tracks." Glass nodded. She turned to Eben. "If you ever want me to show you some cool moves that I've figured out how to do, I'd totally be down for a little training session. They'd probably work for yours, too." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:55 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben nodded at Inu's explanation, and then listened to Glass' explanation.

"I've had to repair my arm with wall spackle before, and petrify it."

He listened to Glass' offer, pondering for a moment.

"I would like that, if you are willing."

He really would, he would take any opportunity to learn how to handle his powers better.

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[3:23 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu offered a small weak smile and clapped his hands together. Yay! "Th-thats good. To learn more about your powers and train..! My powers work...different but..getting a handle on yours is ways good...mm?"

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[6:05 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Eugh, that must've sucked. I've had to reattach my fingers after they break off, but that's pretty easy. Glass melds, and all." Glass hummed.

"Yeah, totally! It'd be my pleasure." She turned to Inu. "You're welcome to join us, too! I mean, I don't know much about how your powers work, but I'm sure we'll be able to figure something out." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:02 AM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben had not expected for him to find one person to talk to, let alone two, let alone that either would wish to purposely interact again.

He glanced between Inu and Glass as she talked. "I should hope we have time to train before the first part of the tournament begins."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[1:08 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"..mmm..maybe so." Inu placed a hand on his cheek, leaning into it slightly. "I can try some...endurance stuff...for my portals but mmm.." He shrugged. "I'd be happy to join and watch.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[1:09 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Eithers good with me. I think the extra training time will do us all some good." Glass shrugged. She was commited to helping these two random guys she'd just met. "Yeah, I hope so, too. I mean, it can't all be fights, right? They've gotta let us have some chill time, too." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[1:22 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben watched Inu talk for a minute before he realized yet again that the staring may be creepy. He looked away and nodded in agreement with Glass. "I should hope not, I believe there has been too much of that already." They were recalling the fight they'd spectated between two others on the docks.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[1:27 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Maybe some things are more of a challenge.." Inu pondered. "That'd be better I think...I'd like something like that.." He laughed nervously. "Have..others been fighting...? I haven't really been paying...too much attention..."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[1:28 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Oh, yeahhhhh-" Glass glanced behind her shoulder to... whatever was happening over there. "There's some weird shit going on."

"Ooh, challenges would be fun. I wonder what kinds of challenges they could have..." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[1:31 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"I hope nothing involves swimming."

Eben leaned against the wall behind them again, finding that he was comfortable enough with those present.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[2:04 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Oh same....I can't really swim." Inu shook his head. "I don't wanna..drown or anything..." Inu shuddered at the thought. "Even the thought is so freaky...hnbb..."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[2:05 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Eugh, me either. Course, I'd just sink to the bottom." Glass shrugged. "Never tested out if I can survive without breathing, though..." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[2:29 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"I can hold my breath for 20 minutes and 18 seconds, last I counted." Eben paused for a moment. "It must be very difficult to think up a satisfactory way of testing everyone of our abilities."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[3:01 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu made a small nervous sound before he frowned at Glass a bit. "That doesn't sound good.." He mumbled before he looked up at Eben. "..Probably..I mean..mmm.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[3:02 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Hmmm, yeah. Everyone here seems to have such different abilities. Wonder what they'll have us do...' Glass mused. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[4:10 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"individual testing? If they were able to find us all regardless of living situation, I would assume they know enough about our abilities to have ways to test them individually" Eben pondered.

[4:19 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu looked...very nervous at the mention of testing. He frowned before he turned away from the group, staying silent. "..." Well, whatever it was- it didn't sound good to him.

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[4:28 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Oh, yeah, you got a point there...." Glass thought for a bit. "Man, is this gonna be like some sort of weird magic standardized testing? That would suuuccckkkk...." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[4:47 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben frowned as Inu turned away before looking at Glass.

"In any case we will find out soon."

Eben was realizing that he was feeling tired having not slept the previous night, and was very much looking forward to (hopefully) sitting down on the boat.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[4:52 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"...I don't like tests..' Inu mumbled quietly. "They hurt my head...mmm..too much to do.." He looked around the docks now. "...Seems like some more people have arrived...huh..'

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[4:53 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Yeah... wonder when they're gonna pick us up." Glass hummed. "I mean, I assume we're all getting on a boat to go somewhere." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[5:03 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben listened to Inu with thought, then turning to Glass' question.

"I hope no fighting happens on the boat, capsizing would be an inconvenience."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[5:34 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"That would be bad..." Inu nodded slowly. "I hope the ride isn't too long either..and they give us some warm clothes..."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[5:36 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Yeah, no shit. That would suck," Glass said, to Eben's comment. To Inu, she added, "They said they would, in the letter, so I bet they'll keep on that promise." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[5:43 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben kept his suspicions and worries to himself for fear of making anyone feel worse.

He did sit down on the ground however, head against the wall, tired of standing.

"I'm very curious about all of this. We should be on the boat soon."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[5:48 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Hopefully..." Inu agreed with Eben. Hopefully soon they wouldn't have to wait out here. "..Mm.." He looked at the luggage for a few moments, staring at it. "..Hopefully that will all fit on board.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[5:50 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Mhm." Glass nodded in agreement. "Yeah... wonder if they'll let her bring all that. Churches can get pretty weird about that sort of stuff, I think." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[6:43 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"Roque did only ask you to watch her stuff, to my knowledge, so I'd hope she picks it up since it's not your job to take it on board." Eben concluded.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[11:32 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"I guess." Inu said with a small sigh. "..Mm..I..I just hope it all goes well..and stuff." He rubbed the back of his neck, glancing towards the ocean. "..Boats...are a bit freaky..but..it should all work out.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[11:36 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Yeah...." Glass hummed in thought, restlessly shifting from side-to-side. "Where do ya think they're gonna take us? Some fancy tropical resort, or something?" @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[11:48 AM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

He nodded in agreement with Inu.

"I doubt a church could sustain the costs for a place like that, but it is possible. It most likely won't be tropical, considering the clothing requirements."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[12:05 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"I've..never really been to Church." Inu mumbled. "But it did say dress warm right..? Somewhere snowy I would think..and cold. Hopefully it isn't too far..maybe a few hours at most...I just think I'd get seasick.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[12:06 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Oh, right- can't believe I already forgot that." Glass laughed. "Hm. That narrows down potential places I think they could be taking us. Snow might be fun, though." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[12:13 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben was silent for a moment.

"It tastes good."

That was the only thought he could contribute on the potential of snow.

"I also hope the boat ride does not last long" he replied to Inu.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[12:26 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"..The Church??" Inu asked dumbly. "They tastye good?? The serve food??" What the fuck Inu. "..Oh. Waait. The snow. I've never really tried snow. I've..never really seen it before..?"

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[12:26 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Wouldn't it just taste like.... water?" Glass rose an eyebrow. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[12:33 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"oh I am not able to tell what it tastes like, but the cold and the texture are the closest I can get to tasting." Eben explained, which was honestly probably more confusing.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[1:15 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"...I wanna try it..' Inu looked at his hands. "Snow...it sounds..yummy..?" He blinked. "We can have like uhm..a snow party maybe."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[1:21 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Fair. I can't eat much of anything, honestly." Glass shrugged, and did an awkward thumbs-up. "Ooo, a snow party! We can do things like... uh, making snowmen! Like how people do in the movies. It never snows where I'm from." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[1:51 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben felt like laughing. But it's Eben, so he didn't.

"It snowed quite a lot where I'm from. Sometimes we poured maple syrup into snow and let it freeze so we could eat it like popsicles." Wow, that might be the longest sentence he said all day.

"And snowmen, yes."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[2:43 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"I wanna try maple syrup.." Inu gasped softly. "I never tried it before. Whats it taste like..? Is it like...sticky..? Huh..?" He asked. "Snowmen sounds fun..like...frosty right..?"

"Frosty the snowman..~" Inu sang...very off key.

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[2:46 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Yeah! Though, I don't think it'll come to life." Glass laughed. "... was a jolly, happy soul..." She sang along.

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[2:59 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben looked out at the water, and smiled.

"It's very sweet. It tastes a little like caramel. Yes, it is sticky."

He listened to the two talk about snowmen.

"They're much more difficult to make than the movies would have you believe."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[4:18 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Inu's eyes couldn't help but light up slightly and they looked pretty excited. "Its sweet..? Oh I like sweet things..!" They offered a weak smile. "That sounds super yummy..?"

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[4:42 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"I'm sure we'll be able to manage it." Glass declared. She didn't comment on the maple syrup candy, as it wasn't too relevant to her. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[6:16 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben nodded, making a mental note to make some for Inu at the nearest opportunity.

"Let's hope there's snow then." He replied

At this point he was nearly getting too tired to properly respond, especially since this was the most he'd talked to humans in like months.

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[6:47 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"I would think so.." Inu looked around the docks. "Its a bit cold here...and mmm..we are going somewhere more chilly...? Maybe we can ask around if anyone knows anything else..." They suggest.

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[6:49 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Oooh, sounds like a good idea." Glass nodded. "I'll go chat with some people, and I'll come back if I learn anything interesting." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[7:36 PM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben nodded.

"I will not be moving but I will be happy to hear any information."

Bro is not doing any more interaction he has found 2(two) people and that is IT

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[9:13 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Alright.." Inu gave a small thumbs up. "We'll..regroup and stuff on the boat later on then..." They glance around the area, shifting nervously before they smile weakly. "...I-I'll..mm..try my best.."

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁 @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[9:14 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Sounds good!" Glass smiled, and gave the two a double thumbs-up before beginning to walk away. I'll see you guys later!" @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S @sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[9:28 AM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

Eben gave a short wave from his spot on the ground. He looked up at Inu. "I can watch Roques things if you want to talk to someone else."

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[10:25 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

".mmm..I don't want her to get mad at you or anything..we can hang around here...maybe we can wave someone over.." Inu told Eben.

@sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁

[10:51 AM]sketti | Eben 🕶 + Isi 🍁:

"I assure you I could handle it if she was upset, but I understand. Having someone come over here should work fine."

@Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S
