Koji slid slowly into the chair beside Topaz. Given the human-proportionated nature of the furniture, his hind paws hovered a few inches above the floor as he tried to make himself comfortable. "Same." He nodded towards Mrs Wetzel.

As the woman disappeared into the kitchen, Topaz spoke up. "What? Uh. Sylvia?" He scrambled in an equal hush, caught off-guard by the randomness of the observation. Momentarily discarding his caution in favour of engaging with his brother, Koji propped an elbow onto the worn wooden table and mused over the statement. "I suppose, hm… oh!" His ears pricked up upon the realisation.

"Our mama…" He murmured softly. "It hadn't occurred to me because she was always 'mama', and not 'Sylvia Nyctores'. Yes, she was prettiest person in the world."

Further speech was ceased by the reappearance of their kind host, holding a copper tray with three steaming cups of tea alongside a flora teapot. "Make yourself at home, boys."

Picking up a cup, Koji sniffed it experimentally. It didn't smell too suspicious. However, after the connection had been drawn between the woman and their own mother, the Exceed could not deny the growing trust with the stranger, that came so easily to Notorious B.I.G..

Koji remained silent throughout most of their journey, allowing Topaz to seize the reigns in developing some rapport with the woman, Mrs Wetzel.

A bittersweet smile crossed the woman's wrinkled mien that Topaz's innocent inquiry. "Dear child, my beloved once lived there too. With him, and his memories, it doesn't get too lonely." Her tone was content as she spoke, but Koji could taste a hint of grief still tinged in her reminiscing.

"My condolences," He said lamely, harbouring an awkwardness that prevented him from adding anything more meaningful.

At length, a quaint little cottage with a thatched roof rose into view, moss and vines crawling across its cobblestone walls. The oak door groaned on its hinges as Mrs Wetzel entered her household, gesturing for her guests to wipe their muddy paws on the fuzzy welcome mat.

"Take a seat at the table. I'll make us some tea. Cream and sugar?"

Affably evil. That's what Koji perceived this newcomer as. The way he smiled and spoke so charismatically sent made the fur on Koji's back bristle. Although he did not voice his distaste, he do not try to hide it either, gazing coolly downwards at the manlet.

"Surviving." The Exceed responded simply, drumming his claws across the hilt of his katana. "I suppose it must've have been easy, being a guild master. Take it from one guild master to another: it's a lot of responsibility." His solitary crimson eye flashed as he stressed the final word.

[b]TIME MAGIC.[/b] Time Mages can control and even stop time. By moving an object through its potential positions in time, a time mage can make an object levitate. Time Mages can also manipulate the time of objects, allowing them to turn objects into what they could be, or into dust. They can also rewind wounds to heal them. It is also possible to speed up or slow down time around a person.

[b]ITEM DESCRIPTION:[/b] A simple steel katana always seen strapped on Koji's back.





Koji was perched upon the cracked roof of a dilapidated house, jutting diagonally out from the ground, his twin tails lashing from side to side behind him. In one paw, he held his trusty katana, although it remained sheathed for the time being. A rendezvous with the enemy guild had been organised. But although the decision had been mutual, Koji did not trust William's younger brother any more than he could throw him.

It was not long before the exceed caught sight of the tell-tale figure of Sovereign. Despite himself, a shiver coursed down Koji's spine. It was eerie how similar the brothers looked. Had he not known better, he would've mistaken the stranger for his late brother.

"Pale." He stated in greeting, tone carefully kept neutral.

Although the strange appeared genuine, Koji found more difficulty in trusting them. He would've reverted to a warning growl had Notorious B.I.G. not responded first. The response in itself pained Koji more than he'd like to admit. We don't have a home to get lost from. Indeed, they were yet to find a single safe place on Alakitasia.

Before Koji could add anything to his brother's frank statement, the old woman replied, crow's feet forming on the edges of her eyes as she smiled warmly.

"Why don't you visit my cottage? It's better than sleeping out here in the dark and the rain." She suggested, gesturing with a crooked cane in the direction of the woods. "It's been a while since I've had visitors." Although warmth seemed to radiate from the elder, Koji still hesitated. His eye flickered from sleepy Topaz to the stranger, and back towards Topaz.

He didn't want to trust strangers, no matter how well-meaning they appeared, but at the same time, her words held merit. Koji did not want his brother to be suffering here. He deserved a warm and dry place, possibly with a mug of warm cocoa.

"What do you think, Top?"

As Topaz scurried after Koji, the older feline began unbuttoning his jacket to reveal a soft belly of white and black fur. Then, he shook off a sleeve and draped half of his jacket over Notorious B.I.G.'s smaller body to shield him from the cold wind that the rain had introduced.

"Sounds like a good idea." The elder brother agreed, plopping his rump down onto the base of the tree and leaning against the trunk, whilst ensuring that his orange jacket was still wrapped around Topaz like a large beach towel.
