As they are considering what items to choose from the selection provided to victors, Ninian looks to the side to see Griss holding up seashells that appear to be intended for use as chest armor. Somehow it doesn't surprise her that he would cover as little of his chest as possible, though it is fascinating that such an item exists at all; human bodies are so very fragile, and still they are willing to wear such little protection (or none at all, but Sir Griss’ liking of pain is unconventional). While she considered the shells herself earlier, they will surely serve him better: little protection is better than none, and she can rely on her true form’s scales besides.

“A stylish choice, Sir Griss,” she comments quietly, with a small smile. “They suit you, and I'm glad to know you'll have some form of protection.”

“You got a weird sense of style,” Griss quips. He’d been trying to figure out what exactly he was holding for the past few minutes, twine strung between his hands, concentration fixed on the pair of palm-sized scallop shells that hung from it. He glances sidelong at the dragon, then back at the ornament. That’s what it had to be: an ornament. Or— he drops one side of it and swings the other around his finger. A weapon? Without much weight on it, it flutters and flaps— maybe a distraction?

Stylish… Protection…

The serrated edge of one of the shells nicks his wrist and an epiphany lights up his eyes.

“Right.” He catches the twine between both hands again, and then starts to tie it to the leather straps that run beneath both of his arms. “I dunno about protection…” He didn’t need that anyway. These are something better. He slaps the shells against his chest when he’s done, and they bite flesh just like cilices. Ninian’s concern gets another round of his rough laughter.

“But they’re gonna hurt so good!”

Even if he’d have the outline of two palm-sized shells imprinted on his chest for days to come.

“Hello again, my friend! I am glad to see that you have made it!” Kagetsu waves to Eliwood as the battle begins again, grabbing his sword with his free hand.

He’s a little disappointed they had to part ways with Rosado, but he’s probably fine. He picked up that parasol from Ares! He’s probably having a great time with that thing and nothing is going wrong.

Strange that their opponents don’t have a third teammate. That doesn’t really seem fair. How are they supposed to showcase their true skill if they’re outnumbered?!

…Unless… they are so strong that they don’t even need a third teammate! Then this is perfect!

He holds his sword up towards the woman in front of him, a warning before he starts to swing. With their smaller numbers, it’s the least he can do. “Hello! I am going to attack you now! Prepare yourself!”

Kagetsu [6/6 HP] Attacks Ninian [6/6 HP] with Iron Sword! [Roll: 1d20 -> 17] Hit! -1 HP (Ninian HP: 5/6)

[tethysse]

the air hangs heavy with despondency, somberly quiet save for the occasional cough or groan that punctuates the stillness. while some patients lay in hushed resignation, others shift restlessly, their discomfort evident in the furrow of brows and clenched fists.

tethys helps where she can, gathering bandages and conversing with those in need of companionship. she sits at the bedside of a young boy, gently brushing back the tangled strands of hair from his fevered brow until the little one dozes off.

among the rows of worn faces and weary bodies, a young woman catches her eye. tethys takes note of her slender frame and delicate poise, and her gaze admiringly follows the stranger's crown of silken hair down her back. there's something familiar about the way this woman carries herself. her steps move with fluid grace, while her gestures seem to mirror a subtle rhythm, flowing with a natural cadence.

tethys is careful not to wake the child. she rises slowly, and delicately adjusts the blanket around him before stepping away. with a soft exhale, she makes her way across the room, her footsteps barely audible, until she stands before the blue-haired woman. tenderly, she extends a greeting, fingers lightly brushing the other woman's arm. "have you come to dance for them?" she asks, a warm smile gracing her lips. "i recognize a fellow dancer when i see one."

A little side note; I'm super sorry for disappearing after the BOEL Event, but many personal things happened and honestly I needed some time to myself to adjust my writing skills and dedicate my spare time to my family and my mental health.

With an uneasy peace settling back over Fódlan, many soldiers that had been conscripted by paranoid nobles are now being sent home. However, some had seen this as their big chance to become knights and to make something more of themselves. They’re unwilling to let go of their training, and reports of these ex-soldiers convening together late at night reaches you and your party. Upon investigation, the ex-soldiers ask you to join them in these sessions, hoping either to learn from you, to practice with you, or to simply get a good word in with the Knights of Seiros. They ask for a future, having been robbed of one already, but do you really have any place to give them one? [Grants Any Skill +1]

After the past events, it was almost common for Minerva receiving some requests from many soldiers from lower ranks: feeling ashamed of not directly asking the higher ranks of the Knights of Seiros, some of them have been asking few instructor – among them, even Minerva was asked – to help them keep the practice active and possible increasing their skills in combat and strategy, with the hope of becoming a great and skilful knight in the nearby future. How could she say no to such ambitious request?

As she received the invitation from one of these soldier, she showed up at the secret night camp organized by a dozen soldiers, which every night since already a week , were training together for becoming stronger and more skilled in the use of melee weapons: as she arrived at the camp, she noticed some soldiers battling together, some soldiers speaking and drinking around a small bonfire and very few of them surrounding what it seemed like a person with a very charming and feminine voice.  Who was she?

The voice dragged the curiosity of the Macedon Princess, who cautiously got closer, while greeting each soldier who approached her with hopeful eyes and a since grin on their lips –they really did hope she would bring them to be the future knights of the Church of Seiros. As she kindly asked some soldiers to move aside, she finally faced a young woman speaking some supportive words to some men nearby her, a majestic figure that stood out from that rabble of common soldiers. Minerva looked a bit confused at first: was she an instructor of some sort? She seemed so young, that was impossible… she was a student. But what was she doing here, at this hour, surrounded by soldiers? Many questions flooded Minerva’s mind, who, in the end, managed to gather the attention of the girl.

“Are you here for training as well..?” she pondered the question, but the answer wasn’t that obvious, “I’ll be glad to be of help, girlie” she used a gentle tone, even though she always sounded so harsh with her words and phrases. “I’m the Flying Instructor of Blue Lions. Minerva, glad to make your acquaintance” she offered her right hand, adding, “By the way.. You have a splendid voice”

I met @ramsey_jameson_sothebys over a year ago. With both of us starting and trying to start businesses related to the lake, we hit it off right away. We met up for lunch today, and he took me to his buddy's place in West Town, @ninisdeli, a family owned neighborhood joint. The place is a mix of Cuban and Mexican influence (his friend's parents' respective heritages), with nothing prepared in the traditional sense. The Media Noche I had is their take on a Cuban. Great stuff all around. Stop in if you get a chance. Oh yeah, and great meeting @juanyworldwide too! Thanks for the hospitality! https://ift.tt/2zTjZcA
