Balthier tugged his gloves up a little further to keep his hands warm. He'd dressed a little warmer this time around, as it was getting ever colder. It helped, but not as much as he would have liked, though that was more the season than anything else.

After some time, he noticed a familiar figure in the distance, walking toward her. "Let's hope this one doesn't end up interrupted, shall we?" Balthier asked, the corner of his mouth upturning into the same smirk as always.

[stealtherose]

Balthier's voice was a small comfort in the cold snow, but Ashe managed to return the smile with one of her own. "One of my main interests in this is not running into trouble," she replied. "I have no mind at all for this to be interrupted or unpleasant."

She sincerely hoped it would be a quiet excursion. There was little need for new wounds on top of those she already had, and she wasn't quite sure how well she would hold up in a battle besides. At least the cold air had seemed to numb the dull ache of the bite on her stomach, even if the rest of her body disagreed with the chill.

Her head nestled a little further into her coat to escape the cold, and she all but danced in place to keep herself warm while they waited for Larsa.

((Soo looking below you can see Larsa leading the pair in :D And we figured Larsa would go again after Ashe's next post ^^))

Anything that Cid may have been about to say, for conversational purposes, had died quickly once they made that final turn. A look at Larsa' "companions" (and perhaps, if Cid had thought about it, the pair would have been the likeliest for the meet-up) and he drew to a halt, leaning to one side and folding his arms across his chest. "Larsa," he said with an accusing, annoyed, and disdainful tone.

The boy would have to do a lot of apologizing, Cid thought, as he glowered at Ffamran. Blast. Well, he had gotten the boy there safely. It was time to go.

"Good d--" At the sound of Larsa's voice, Ashe had turned to greet the young emperor. She hadn't expected to be greeting a certain doctor as well.

Needless to say, she was unsure of exactly how to appropriately react to this situation. How awkward.

Still, she couldn't stand there gaping, and queenly manor took precedence over past meetings. "Good day, Larsa," she said slowly, before offering a small smile and a nod to Cid. "Good day, Doctor."

Sorry, not sure where else to put this. I'm willing to thread, but I'll be highly erratic and will probably end up holding a lot of it up.

I think you still should :D Because Del is awesome. And you might still have a bit anyway~ 'cause at least Cid and Larsa are getting there and... yeah. Stuff. *mind blanks out*

[fishy_swarm]

Okay~! Del will pop in... When she can.

I'm waiting for Ashe and Balthier to meet up and chat anyway, so no rush. ♥

Larsa had been asked to go for an exploration with Ashe and Balthier. He'd welcomed the distraction from his worries about Namine. So he'd set out at the appointed time and made his way across to the place they'd all agreed to meet, not expecting to see anyone along the way.

Cid was not one to welcome the cold by any means, and the only reason he was gracing the streets with his presence was to shop for a new jacket. Better to be prepared for when more snow - although he wish it wouldn't happen - would fall. He stood out in the dreariness of the city, still wearing red.

Now for the long walk back... (serves him right for being indecisive, perhaps he will settle for something a bit closer by for a few days). However, it was his surprise to see the young lord out on the streets that morning as well. Cid was not always a rude man, and so he approached the other, glancing around the area. "Wandering about the streets alone?" He tsked. "A Solidor or not, my young lord, it doesn't bode well for you."

[solidorstrength]

Larsa turned at the sound of a familiar voice. He hadn't expected to see anyone out on the streets, let alone Dr. Cid, and the surprise showed on his face for a moment. "I am expected to meet with a friend," he explained, not letting slip who he was meeting. "It is not much farther to the place which we agreed to meet." He was aware of the crabs and didn't like the fact that he knew he couldn't take on more than two or three at a time alone.

"It is good to see you again. If you are going the same direction, would you care to accompany me? It is not far from here."

It might give them a chance to catch up after all.

He tilted his head up just a fraction and observed the boy carefully, mildly interested. It was foolish to deny him as they were heading in the same way. He nodded his head then quirked it to the other side. "Very well then. Wouldn't want you to be lost to a wave of crabs. They have been about in troves as of late, time of day little matter."

He waved a hand up showing for Larsa to take the lead, and Cid would follow alongside.
