its' now fourthy-one days since I smiled...

[gambler_of_luck]

Good lords...where is he?

The one who stolen my heart so? That damned brat, we did he run off too now?

Left all to my lonesome am I? Ah, a cruel jest even for his taste!

I must say, I never been in such a foul mood...

Rikku, I seek you as well but not in much of a loving fashion if you catch my meaning!

There seems to be quite a little backslash for the

What kind? Chicken, Turkey, Rooster o' Pheasant?

[gambler_of_luck]

...what?
What on earth are you babbling about?

[the_grinreaper]

Ya said ya were in a fowl mood! ♥

[gambler_of_luck]

...Cute...
Yes, simply so cute...

[adjured]

Yes, Balthier. I heard of Rikku's stunt as well, and of your response. I must say, I was quite disappointed in her, though I've not yet decided what to think of your reaction.

[gambler_of_luck]

And what of it?

Have I yet to explain myself to you?
I find little need in explaining such but let's hear what you wish to think of me, here and now.

Seem quite too many know of this little tale, perhaps many of what others may know is lewd lies to further frame me of such unexpected deeds.

But I must say, why does such a topic interest you?
My dear, this shall naught be a topic for you to speak upon.

[adjured]

Yes, you must explain yourself, and you'd best do it quite thoroughly.

I am quite sure, as I've heard the tale from Rikku herself, that it is not a lewd lie, as you so eloquently put it.

Rikku is my cousin, Balthier. My younger cousin. I take responsibility for her actions, as I see myself as her guardian of sorts. Therefore, I believe that it is a topic for me to speak upon.

[gambler_of_luck]

...Ohh...

I-I see! Oh well! Ahem!
That does certainly change this story, does it not?

Honestly so, I must confess...I had no idea.
If such kinship was to have been spoken beforehand then perhaps none of this would have happened!

But may I say in my defense, I was idly walking BY when the young miss lifted her shirt for the world to see!
Proving she was of age to two other gents who names do elude me!

For the love o' Deus, you sure are getting hounded by all these people for peeping at some boobs bro.

I think all yall should - Piss.Off.

Fer cryin' out loud. I've had the chance to talk to this Rikku girl. She doesn’t sound like an incompetent, brainless, boorish, ditz! She sounded like she could kick ass and take names. As I understand it, it might be this whole babying bull-shit that led her to do what she did in the first place if people aren’t taking her to be a real woman.

Only my two cents, let Balthier and Rikku handle their shit and lets pretend they're both adults. I'm sure Rikku herself might appreciate being treated as an adult instead of like a baby who needs everyone else to take care of her business for her. That's not the kinda person I talked to.

[gambler_of_luck]

...For the first time ever, I am glad you came upon land, Bart.

[pirate_dynamic]

Uuuuh...thanks?

But if you look at it with a bit of logic aint waving a pair of boobs in front of men, or anyone for that matter in a public place, they're gonna look for crying out loud.

It has nothing to do with being a gentleman, a girl would look at a scene like that even if they aren't into boobs it's the audacity that makes people look.

But waving boobs in front of a guy is like waving jewels in front of a girl or candy in front of kid!

[gambler_of_luck]

Heh! Just about the same logic I was about to say!
I think what the real issue here...is that many poise me in such a role these days...

Yes, indeed, I am a gentleman but I am getting tired of being pegged the *SAINT* as well.

[vaanly]

... what happened?

... I'm sorry I haven't been around lately. There's been... something I've had to take care of by myself.

[ooc: damn you! i'm trying to hiatus it and look what you did! :( ]

[gambler_of_luck]

...Vaan!? Well...isn't this surprising!
Where did you go? Damn you boy! I've been worried sick!
You better have a lovely excuse to tell me!

A matter? Oh?

Mhm, I guess I can probably forgive you for running off, but still...
Believe me boy, I never knew I would end up suffering the wrath of so many in such a little bit of time.

[ooc: XD!! eee!!!]

[vaanly]

Uh... yeah. I'll tell you all about it later, all right? I didn't mean to worry you, though. And I promise, I'm doing okay. Well, apart from missing you...

...? What's their problem?

[gambler_of_luck]

I hope you do...
I miss you just as much, believe me.

People are simply insane, Vaan...
I fear that many of these patrons here may prove a tad bit too *dangerous* or crazed for my liking.
But not is bad!

The construction is going well for the northern piers!
I am quite shocked at how well its been going, but I am thankful.
