[No filters because Rena doesn't know how to filter. Yet.]

Claude? I know it's been a while... but can we sit down and talk? What are your plans for today?

Leon, Ashton? Is there anything you'd like me to pick up at the shops? I'll be going out as soon as I can. ... I think we're running out of carrots.

Oi, what're you to Leon?

[Voice]

[arlia_angel]

Hm? Oh, he's a good friend of mine... Are you a friend of his too?

[Voice]

[god_is_a_dude]

I'm his overlord.

[Voice]

[arlia_angel]

His... overlord? What do you mean by that?

[voice]

[book_of_chaos]

[There's a distracted "hmm?" sound, like Leon heard his name being called but isn't paying enough attention to respond.

But he does respond when he hears "carrots." Running out of carrots = running out of carrot juice.]

Yeah, make sure to pick up those carrots, Big Sister. [He's so spoiled now that Rena's around and making sure he's eating right.]

[voice]

[arlia_angel]

[But that's what big sisters are for!]

Sure thing, Leon. Is there anything else you want? That way if you're busy and need something, you don't have to go out.

[book_of_chaos]

[He actually adores having her around. Claude and Rena haven't been around back home for quite awhile, after all.]

...Can you pick up another cookie sheet, maybe? I had an alchemy acc-- mishap with the last one.

[voice]

[arlia_angel]

[She's happy that they're together too. She was still getting used to him being older; it was apparent in his mannerisms and speech. And he is a little taller than she remembered!]

[When she heard the request, she smiled, making sure not to laugh, as cute as she thought it was.]

Not a problem. ...I promise I won't tell anyone. You've been working on a few projects here, including alchemy?

[Voice]

[mirrorslice]

[Claude had been avoiding this, but now that she's brought it up... can't hide.]

No plans for me. Do you just want to go to the living room and talk?

[Voice]

[arlia_angel]

[She was avoiding it as well, but she realized she couldn't run away from it anymore either.]

I'd like that. I can meet you there? Um, unless you wanted a little more privacy... [Although she wasn't sure either if they should discuss it in the privacy of one of their bedrooms either. It was still a bit awkward.]

[Voice]

[mirrorslice]

I don't think anyone will bother us in there, don't worry. I'll see you in a few minutes.

[And he's already rolling off of his bed and heading for the living room.]

[Action]

[arlia_angel]

Okay, I'll see you there.

[She made it to the living room first, and she thought it was appropriate that she should have, seeing she was the one who invited Claude to talk. After sitting on the couch, she placed her journal on a nearby table, keeping an eye on it to make sure it wouldn't open and record anything.]

[backseat_dragon]

Actually, I have a bit of an odd request.

-Everything with Ashton is odd. This is no surprise.-

[arlia_angel]

[She's not surprised. But curious instead.]

It's fine, Ashton, it's nothing to worry about. What's the request?

[backseat_dragon]

Do you think you could pick me up another jewelers kit? I... threw my old one out after that whole proposal fiasco...

[arlia_angel]

Sure, I could get that for you. I admit I haven't seen them for them myself, but there should be one in the shops!

Are you doing better than before?

[Voice]

[fonon_professor]

[Expect this response to be somewhere around early noon, during lunchbreak. Classes were going on during the late morning, after all.]

In regards to the placement test, you're free to stop by the school this afternoon, after classes end. I can prepare the test for you then. It shouldn't take too long.

[Voice]

[arlia_angel]

[Rena was still excited over receiving a message from any of the teachers, late or not.]

R-really? Today? That's great, I appreciate it! Oh, my name's Rena Lanford. I'm honored to meet you!

[Voice]

[fonon_professor]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Rena. My name is Gelda Nebilim. I'll look forward to seeing you this afternoon.

[Voice]

[arlia_angel]

Thank you, Professor Nebilim. Is there anything special that I must bring for this test?
