pile of creds

[ Th'ancred had heard of the Make it Rain event, and had decided... well, he'd look cute in some of those clothes. And the bar there was good - and his daugher had gone, as well.

Perhaps he wanted to simply relax. The Scions were at rest - as far as they could be. They were preparing to see what the Source would bring - since it seemed to be a calm similar to periods of large activity.

But, for now, Th'ancred sat at the edge of the airship there, legs danging over. He could have teleported - he'd never been cursed by Flow - but he still wanted to feel the air against him. Sometimes he wondered if death was even a concept here. No, they'd be there soon, and he could gamble his heart away. (Maybe see if Alisaie would come home. She'd been set up there for days.) ]

I can only imagine… [not too far, that's good!] Well! I'm glad to hear you're doing so well. What sorts of things are you dealing with?

[oh, wow, that's an impressive spread! Thancred whistles a little- before glancing at Minfilia. Hm. If she's wary, then-]

What do you want to try first?

[he can taste-test! he's a faerie, it's probably fine.]

Weeellll, [ the Vanu said as she moved towards a salad for herself, ] there's quite a bit of building to do, with the union of Dravanian and Man, between the worlds. Oh, and there's those Goblins who decided to take an old testing faculty to train up other people and try out new robots! [ in other words, rival wings. ] And when they're done, there's always crowds who need a break, mhm! [ can you feel that pride?]

Minfilia gave him a little nod, trying not to flick her ears too much. She had to be presentable. ] I think I'll just begin with some tea. [ She says after a little. she is hungry, but... also nervous. ]

Of course- buildings and furniture for one aren't quite shaped for the other, are they? New robots…? Maybe we could watch them. [he's worried- but also interested.] And you provide for them, of course [a grin! she's clearly doing very well.

He nuzzles a bit.] All right. That sounds good to me, too. [though he will take some of the meat and salad, too. It'll be fine!]

Thank you for setting this up, too, Taru Vali.

Ooh! You'd love it - there's a lot of testing! And sometimes there's even cooler robots which come out with cool music!

[ everything is tasty. they hire good chefs! Minfilia is smiling as she sits, and. Oops. Moenbryda is burying into a chicken. Or, well, uh, a smol Chocobo. ] Yes - thank you, Taru Vali. If I knew it would be this nice, I would have invited more of us...

It's more then fine! Twelve know that everybody works too hard, right? [ preen preen preen, but also. ] I know that's what my-- Minfilia, wasn't it? That's what she does. And so many others~ It's really rare one knows how to deal with the world. Or just becoming a part of Hydaelyn. [ Which is something which is a sore spot for this Minfilia, so she sort of. Takes another sip. ]

So there's sure to be one while we're here! Cool music, you say? I wouldn't miss it, then! Minfilia- you don't mind, do you?

[very tasty! Thancred makes an approving sound, and- well Moenbryda probably approves too. It's amazing to see her working on it- he's a little amazed, but she has always had a good appetite.]

We could all visit again, couldn't we? It'd be good for everyone. [he reaches out for Minfilia- trying to squeeze a little.]

Of course I don't mind - it may be fun to watch. [ And she could stand to see others being in conflict a little - as he flutters closer, she gives him a little rub. She's fine. Really. It's not like she's terrified of what her fate could have been.

But Taru Vali seems so very happy. ]

Then it's settled! When you're all nice and full, we'll go and watch some Rival Wings! That's what it's called.

And of course you can visit! It's not like we could come to Mor Dhona, is it?

...Even with all the chaos, there's still a stigma against the Beast Tribes, I'm afraid to say. Did you learn that from-- our Tataru?

Mhm! We all stay in contact a lot - it's important to delegate.

[Since he hasn't seen it, he's not as worried… But he's still concerned. He does relax a little, though, settling against her.]

Rival Wings, eh? Is that the style of the robots?

It may improve- I'd hope at least. [since apparently they have made some strides that way?] We could bring gifts.

That's good. [they could probably learn from Tataru and Taru's delegation!] Between the two of you? What else have you been looking at?

No, uh, it's because they're split into two teams, named after birds! [ like her! she's a birb! But softly, she pauses. ]

Well, we ALL share our knowledge, all the Tararu - even if we didn't want to. Comes with being what I am. Gifts sound nice!!! [ she says trying to distract from what she mumbled. ]

Oh- that does make more sense, come to think. Which birds are they named after? [a super cute birb!]

All of you…? How many are there- do you know? [there's a very suspicious look, but. hm. Minfilia's worried enough… …eh, screw it, he'll ask. Sort of.] What sort of thing would someone like you ask?

If I remember right, the Falcon and the Raven.

Well, we need to keep an eye on every single shard. It'd be bad if we didn't. [ holy-- every single one? Minfilia just. Drops her tea a little. Fully paying attention. Not even noticing the Sylph and Middybryda fighting a little over food playfully. ] But the best gifts are those which suit you! Every single one of you is different, and you're all my friends! After all - there's no need for us to be enemies, even if my lessers think we should be.

Good choices, both. I wonder who we should support…

All of them!? That's- an incredible number, surely. [um. maybe he'll just try and rescue that before Minfilia drops it completely. He does notice- oh that's cute. And they're having a good time! That's good.] Well, of course- I suppose you consult on the best options, too? [he hesitates a little- concerned. Trying to tell, a little.] I'd certainly hope there'd never be any way in which we could be enemies.

I wouldn't want to be your enemy! It's rare, though, that Spoken and Ascian can get along. [ She... just says it. And Minfilia just puffs up. ] A-Ascian... you?

...You didn't know? [ Oh, Taru Vali. She's now fretting, coming up to hold Minfilia and holding out a talon so Thancred can steady himself, if needed. ]

… Ah. We didn't, no.

[he does- just kind of sag against her, yes. He doesn't think they're in any danger, after all, he's just- more?]

Speaking for myself- it still seems strange. I imagine that's why… [Tataru didn't say. He darts a glance at her- watching Minfilia more, to try and work out what to do now.]

...You're-- why do you...?

[ She is not well, and Taru is softly stroking the poor panicked angel. ] It's really okay, Minfilia. If any of us wanted to,
we would have taken you all down. [ that isnt helping. ]

Taru Vali… I don't think that's what she needed to hear. [he's gonna move slowly, to hug a little too.] But- you have shown us kindness, here… May I assume that remains your intention while we're here?

Of course. Honestly, I don't even want Zodiark back or whatever Elidibus is doing. It'd be sad.

[ she even gives a lil squark! minfilia is unsure, though. ]

That would… change the nature of the world, yes?

[he's going to settle between the two of them as best he can, sort of holding onto both enough it's… sort of like a hug, considering size.]

[ Minfilia makes her wings visible, brushing a wing against Thancred gently. She's fine, but... they should listen to her, hm? ]

It would! And then we'd have to say goodbye - I like Eorzea! Pretty much all of them! This one is the most concerning - but not in a bad way.

[Soft and nice, and he leans into it a little. He's listening.]

Overall- it's quite a good place. I'm glad you think that. Because of all that happens here?

Mhm! It's not often a nexus stands for this long - ooh, and the fact it's moved so far away from its' mirror - it should be impossible.

This has happened before? …a mirror? Of another world- and it's still thriving?

[ She should tell this to others though the mind of this world, hm. But she nods, fluffling up a little more. ]

It's a little confusing... but this world is the closest to Zodiark, and super connected to the one which is closest to Hydaelyn! So they're meant to be the same...

You're all very impressive, for breaking away from it!

[ Minfilia is listening, as she's... calming. Even if she's still so very wary, she continues to let her wings stroke the both of them. ] ...And the minion with her Light seems nervous to be here...

[it might help, yes. Thancred makes a soft sound, leaning in more closely.]

On the other side of the scales, then. Are we- should we be expecting anything else to come of this breaking apart?

It's a good thing, then?

[he turns to Minfilia, surprised.] Well- if it was so close to Zodiark- but we have one here? Made of her Light? Truly?

...If anything bad happens, I'll let you know - me or the other body, that is! And it'd be a lot sadder if you followed it... a lot more people would be dead or injured. Or worse!

[ taru vali what can be worse then dead or injured ]

Yes - from what I heard, it was possessing a man... and was extracted and stuck inside a Minion. If this was not Her realm-- it makes sense now. Why she... left me with no Blessing.

[ ...Why was she Blessed in the first place, though? Would they need to find Zodiark...? ]

In- Mor Dhona? [this is Weird. and- he can kind of imagine. possession would be, at the least, even without specifying how…] I'd appreciate that- I'm sure we wouldn't like anyone falling into anything like that.

Possessing someone- [he hisses.] …maybe that's better for him. [at that- he frowns, shaking his head.] That doesn't… make any sense, though. Why withdraw from the people blessed already and do this…?

[Hydaelyn, what are you thinking? He… wants to ask.]
