Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Good and I'll have school all dealt with by then mostly so I can be on a lot. I love exams xd I mean really who needs studying? j/k but i will be on often))

Hoelun's smile was bittersweet. "Dars is resting right now, I think. When he comes up, I'll tell him about you. Does that sound good?" Subconsciously, her fingers itched to play her trombone. She couldn't stay still for long.

A man came into Dars' cabin and said
"My Lord Summoner, we will be arriving at Luca soon. I believe you wished to be told."
"Yes, thank you." Answered the summoner. The man left. Dars got his things together and went out onto deck, Luca still wasn't on the horizon (as far as he could see anyway) but no doubt it wouldn't be long appearing. Dars went to the head of the ship and leaned against one of the crossbows, looking out over the sea.

Dars sat down next to the young mage and held a hand up to his face. The hand came away.
"Look at my eyes Lirian."
Dars had removed something from his left eye, it was now red and swirled instead of blue and normal.
"I'm Al Bhed, the Yevonites hate us so much that I hide it, they wouldn't let me complete my pilgramage if they knew. I don't mind though, I'm not doing it for them, I journey for the people of Spira and their hope for the future."
Dars put the contact lens back in.

((a premetting post kinda... I figure that I just don't suddenly show up. I mean it's like the whole 'does a tree falling make a sound if nobody's there to hear it?' Well I believe it does so it's basically the same concept and while I'm posting. xd I'll try to keep it short... ish))
"Time to get up girl!! Bar'll be opening soon and we got a big day ahead of us!!" Calli groans and lifts her head up an inch to look around her room above the bar.More yelling from her uncle as he heads back downstairs to get ready, Calli sighs and swings herself out of bed then gets dressed in the normal blue and white uniform tunic, shirt and pants of the bar. Braiding her hair and then sliding on one of her hidden daggers, you could never be sure with the drunks, and Calli is ready for another day of work. Calli runs down the stairs and immediatly gets to work as waitress. There were already a few crusaiders and blitzplayers dropping by with their friends. Calli sighs and grabs a tray then hurries off to do her job.

((yes they do. Dars took out the wrong lens, it's his other eyes that's green. There's a story behind his left eye being red, but not one i want to share yet))

Dars stood up and turned around, he saw Hoelun and smiled
"Yes?"

Hoelun gave a nervous smile. "Um, there's someone on the ship I want you to meet." She glanced toward the way she had come. "Her name is Elizabeth, and she's from Guadosalam like I am."

She could not disguise the relief in her voice. Guado were not seen outside of their town very often, except in Bevelle. It was nice to be apart from the odd stares she received when playing in the temple orchestra.
