[He looks around in silence. It would be easy to fall prey to the situation they were in - the fact their worlds were gone. Instead he concentrates on the sphere of life before them and makes a promise, perhaps whispered to himself, but with shared feelings, Noir would feel his resolve.]
I'll do everything to make sure...this world is protected.
[So concentrated he barely hears Sael's voice that echos around them.]
Great! Good job! This is kinda boring now, though. Hey guys, think fast!
[Awww, and here he had his courage at maximum ready to do all the stupid things.]
Yeah...
[Asking. Well, he supposes it's better to do the right thing first. Even if some of the dragons ARE looking at them. Hopefully not thinking of them as threatening. They have to be used to seeing others...he hopes.]
...although who could we ask...[it's more of a question aimed to himself than to her.]
I know what a valet is...[Mitsuru had a few and he met one of her maids...although maids in that household tended to be special, or at least he assumed. Still, he can't help but crack a brief joke.] That's too bad...you'd think someone named Leo would love cats.
They are. Honestly, I've always just cared for them outside, since my parents didn't want me to have one...I hoped those out nearby as much as I could. I'm sure one of these would make a good companion. They've survived on their own this far...but it's always good to get additional help.
I don't have a favorite type, honestly. I'm willing to give everything a try...even if the book is bad, I'll read it to the end. It's interesting to see how terrible a book can get. I read one about a vampire going to high school...it was a very badly written love story.
[At least he knows it is shit, right?]
Well, first we'd need to figure out what you do know. What makes him say that you're not able to take care of yourself? My parents constantly work, so I've had to take care of myself since I was a child.
[GOOD LORD YUSUKE, WAY TO HIT ALL OF YU'S ALARM BELLS AT ONCE. Tentatively, he takes a nearby rock and throws it into the cavern.]
I don't think there are traps set off by movement.
[That was a good start! ...He hoped, at least.]
Maybe I should go in alone, and if I get into trouble you can pull me out? Or do you want to go in first and I keep guard? I don't have much for healing mind you, just a kit we were given. [ It's not a healing spell, but it will do.]
[ JJ makes an exaggerated pouty face at the cat, the kind people normally make at children as he scratches his fingers down its spine. It feels like a good compromise—he won't be able to have kids as early as he had originally planned, so he might as well fill the void with animal babies. ]
We used to have a dog. But I haven't had a pet in a long time; I just haven't had the time. I don't really know anything about cats though. [ He looks back up at Yu. ] You'll help me out, right?
[ yeah!! at the very least at least they won't get killed by a sudden rain of arrows set off by a hidden pressure plate.
As cool as that'd be, Yusuke does take a moment's pause to squint into the interior of the skull, tapping thoughtfully against the side of his jaw. Hm. ]
I'm afraid I don't either. [ ... ] I can grant you a bit of swiftness, if you don't mind magic.
[ Last time he tried casting anything without warning, he just about gave the other dude a heart attack. So it doesn't hurt to ask first before sending Yu off into the depths to deal with... whatever might be inside. ]
[ Taryon seems nervous, but it doesn't take him much thought to agree, breaking away from looking joyfully into the cat's eyes to look back up at Yu. ]
[When he wakes, Yu will find waiting for him a package wrapped in bright red paper. Inside is a small box of twelve cans of cat food and a swiss army knife. There's no card.
[And just...terrible in general. Yu please, get better taste and love yourself. Don't sit there reading all of Twilight just because you started it.
But...ah. This is a bit awkward, isn't it? Elliot can't even imagine what that would be like - having to take care of himself. He can't even take care of himself now.]
I'm the son of a Duke. I've had servants do most things for me my entire life.
[As the other holds out his hands, Yu waits and hovers around the other's. At first the cat doesn't seem to want to walk over, but eventually after taking a small sniff from the other pair of hands decides to walk over...and then climb up a bit on his sleeve. Yu looks incredibly pleased by what's happening.]
There you go...be careful, kittens don't realize that their claws are dangerous weapons sometimes.
It was! But it's interesting to see what makes such a book so popular...
[Maybe one day he could show you the joys of MSK3000 things, Elliot. He strokes his chin in thought afterwards. So this guy hasn't done much in his life by himself...]
I see...this could take a while.
[Never let it be said that Yu Narukami doesn't love a challenge however.]
[Good question. Elliot's gonna take a moment to think that over for just a second. Honestly there's a lot he wants to learn, but maybe he should stick with the basics first.]
There's many ways to do it! Cooking eggs is actually one of the harder things to do perfectly but I can tell you how I do it...
[He strokes his chin on how to best explain this to someone who's never cooked before.]
First you, find a metal pot that's big enough to put an egg or two in it. I take my eggs and put them in, and add some cold water until they are a little more than covered. Water evaporates as it boils, so you have to calculate enough water that they'll stay submerged in water the entire time.
You'll need to use medium heat until the water starts boiling. I don't know if you have a stove, that would be the easier way to cook it. Once it starts to boil, you cover with the pot's cover, turn off the heat, and leave the pot covered for about twelve minutes.
Once that time has passed, you drain the water, shake the pot to make the eggs crack a bit, add some cold water back into the pot, then take them out and peel it off.
[That is a lot of instructions but he just smiles.]
[But it's okay...what he's saying makes sense. Put eggs in a pot and fill the pot with some water and then just boil...the water. Then let them sit. Yeah. Maybe he should've written it down...]
[It's not too much of a trek, but Elliot more or less drags his feet the entire way to Yu's place. When he does knock and is let inside, he greets the other boy quietly, the aroma of whatever's cooking hitting him. Ah...he really is hungry, huh.]

[Their ride is about to get a lot more bumpy.]
[With Minako]
Date: 2017-12-09 08:56 am (UTC)If the fantasy stories I've read all my life are true, probably meat of some kind.
[Would that include them? He can't be sure, but from the way he's frowning, it's probably crossing his mind. He looks back at Minako.]
Of course, we can hope they've already fed. None of them seem to be look at us funny. But just in case...can you fight?
[Yu are you seriously thinking about doing this. Really.]
no subject
Date: 2017-12-09 09:10 am (UTC)[ Fighting is no problem for her. Maybe. She hasn't had time to test out the use of her Persona and how well it will work here. ]
Better to be safe than sorry. It's hard to tell if we'd get into trouble if the dragons get hurt, too.
no subject
Date: 2017-12-09 08:21 pm (UTC)Yeah...
[Asking. Well, he supposes it's better to do the right thing first. Even if some of the dragons ARE looking at them. Hopefully not thinking of them as threatening. They have to be used to seeing others...he hopes.]
...although who could we ask...[it's more of a question aimed to himself than to her.]
no subject
Date: 2017-12-10 03:03 am (UTC)I'm still learning my way around here so maybe someone that looks like they, I don't know, belong here?
[ But that could be anyone. ]
With Senren Lavellan
Date: 2017-12-12 08:13 am (UTC)Maybe we just have to find the right way to undo them probably...they probably work like astronaut outfits...
With Elliot
Date: 2017-12-12 08:16 am (UTC)[ He can't help but chuckle at that remark. ]
I know what a valet is...[Mitsuru had a few and he met one of her maids...although maids in that household tended to be special, or at least he assumed. Still, he can't help but crack a brief joke.] That's too bad...you'd think someone named Leo would love cats.
no subject
Date: 2017-12-12 08:22 am (UTC)He doesn't mind them but his real passion is books. He's a total nerd.
[So are you Elliot don't front.]
He'd scold me because it wouldn't be responsible...having to take care of a living being when I can barely manage myself.
[Eugh. That's...hard to admit but hey, it's true.]
no subject
Date: 2017-12-12 08:26 am (UTC)[Although some of it would forever remain questionable.]
Is that so? Maybe I can teach you to take care of yourself better. Then you'd be able to surprise him!
no subject
Date: 2017-12-12 08:29 am (UTC)[Yeah, this is Elliot's way of probing whether or not you have shit tastes, Yu. That said, you must have good ones if you love cats so much.]
How would you go about doing that?
[WITH JJ]
Date: 2017-12-12 08:47 am (UTC)[He nods, approving.]
They are. Honestly, I've always just cared for them outside, since my parents didn't want me to have one...I hoped those out nearby as much as I could. I'm sure one of these would make a good companion. They've survived on their own this far...but it's always good to get additional help.
[With Taryon]
Date: 2017-12-12 08:55 am (UTC)[He holds her out a little more for him.]
It's up to you, of course.
no subject
Date: 2017-12-13 08:35 am (UTC)stupiddaring things.]I suppose...that could be anyone at this point.
[It's not like there would be some planet version of dragon shepherds, right? He gives a small shrug.]
Well...we can continue to watch. That shouldn't cause any problems, right?
no subject
Date: 2017-12-13 08:40 am (UTC)[At least he knows it is shit, right?]
Well, first we'd need to figure out what you do know. What makes him say that you're not able to take care of yourself? My parents constantly work, so I've had to take care of myself since I was a child.
[WITH Yusuke]

no subject
Date: 2017-12-14 12:02 pm (UTC)[ She's also stubborn. Sometimes it's a good combo, sometimes it's bad. Standing up, Minako glances around. ]
Look for someone that's got meat. I bet that they've got to have a feeder here.

Perhaps there's an instruction book that's hidden somewhere.
