"Man, how many more of these things do we have to go through..?!"

Though they'd only gone through a couple of the holes so far, shaped to their bodies and the positions they were expected to make, Lloyd was already looking tired; having narrowly avoided being knocked into the water on the last run. His hands were on his knees, bent over as he tried to catch his breath; while Twoishe chirped in excitement, ready for the next challenge.

"This kinda reminds me of tryin' to get through one of the temples back at home.. never thought I'd have to do one of these dumb puzzles again. How come you're so good at this, Aster?"

As soon as Ratatosk woke up, he patted himself down relieved that he was wearing clothes. For some odd reason, he felt like he went insane and did something massively stupid before the world ended which knowing him, likely happened. Shaking his head, he got up and slowly felt the Mana around him. It was different from where he was before but had the same tangency that he was used to back home and lifted out his hand- the area around his feet shifting as a Wolf was brought into existence. 

But as he sensed the Mana around, a familiar one pricked up. Ratatosk didn’t even have time to see the Wolf’s eyes opening when he turned around-

“You always try to surprise me even when I can sense you, idiot.” Even as he said this, the blond had his arms out as if ready for a hug

For the first time in a while, he had a stupid grin on his face.

@fallenconstellation liked x for a WinterFES starter!

“Oh my gosh, this is so much fun! If I’d have thought to make this sort of thing back home, I might’ve come down to the kitchen a whole lot more!” The inventive princess’s eyes sparkled as she worked at the touch screen console, fingers working to test out every possible customization option for these custom cookies she could find. Every time she thought of something or someone to make the design after, she thought of something different and adjusted her design accordingly. It was too tough to think of just one!

“Of course, I likely would have installed the console in my lab and had it send the design down to the kitchen to automatically make the cookies...but I don’t really want to think about that too much- it probably would’ve just ended up replacing the kitchen staff, and they did really nice work too.” She stared blankly at the screen for a couple more seconds, blinking before turning to look at the young man who stood nearby her. “Hey, do you think it’d be more or less expensive if I made a bunch of differently designed cookies but made them tiny?” That would be a win-win for sure!

“Oi, watch your head..!”

With one swift movement, Lloyd successfully was able to catch a book that had been knocked off a shelf in the library-- one that had almost fallen on the shorter boy who was attempting to grab it. It had been just out of his grasp, teetering on the edge; if Lloyd hadn’t been there, he was sure the other would have suffered a pretty nasty bruise from the impact.

“Must be a pretty interesting book for you try so hard to grab it, huh? Though, it might be better to ask for help next time if y’can’t reach it,” speaking only lightheartedly, Lloyd handed the book to the boy with a smile on his face. “I’m Lloyd, by the way. What’s your name?”

Emil was cleaning the glasses as his shark...tail laid behind him, looking at all the decorations around Centurions Ex Machina Tavern. With all the chaos outside, it looked like business was going to be slow. In a way he shouldn’t be surprised...the same thing happened last year as well. 

“To be doomed before it could start- it sounds almost like poetic irony.” Though it was to be expected. This world was as strange as it was mysterious.

Red eyes widened when as he said that, someone walked through the door. 

“Ah welcome to Centurions Ex Machina, how may I help....you?” Oh. Well wasn’t that a surprise?
