The Job Never Ends (OPEN)

[glitters]

((Dear Bec:
I am sorry for not picking you up last night D: I dropped Deb off and didn't see my phone until on my way home. Did things get better? Or did mom and dad destroy the place?))

"Alainya Igniatus..."

Jasmine smiled, feeling better that formalities were taken care of--she then remembered Kevin still standing there and quickly stepped aside to introduce them to each other.

"S-sorry. Miss Igniatus, this is a friend, Mr. Kevin Uruhane. He's been training another good friend of mine in battle," Jasmine gave Kevin a bit of a playful grin, "he's a real dear who appreciates a good tea, too."

[Alainya Igniatus]

((Yeah, no worries, they didn't destroy the place xD but they were still arguing the whole way home lawl. But Deb was still up so she opened the door for meh ))

Alainya gave a light bow to Kevin when Jasmine introduced him. "Nice to meet you," she said, giving a light smile. Alainya re-hoisted her bag once again, making sure it was in place. "I'm terribly sorry, but I really should be going, I have some matters to take care of in Ventus," she told both of them.

Although it seemed like they were really nice people, Alainya knew she was wasting time standing around here, also, she was quite weary from her trip, and knew she should find an inn to rest at.

[glitters]

"Oh, I'm sorry for keeping you, Miss Igniatus. Hopefully we should meet again," Jasmine answered, not really wanting to press for further information from the woman--especially since it...well, really wasn't any of Jasmine's business.

"Though if you could, at least let folks know in Ventus that there is a healer who is working for cheap outside of the city, please? My friend and I really need to get some food," she smiled, a little nervously.

[Alainya Igniatus]

Alainya gave a slight frown when Jasmine mentioned that her and her friend needed food. Sure, healers were very wanted of course, but that was in such places where there was fighting happening, such as wars and whatnot. And, as far as Alainya knew, no such things as that were happening in Ventus at this moment.

"Did you perhaps, want to come to town with me, for some food. I'd be happy to help if you and your friend needed food." she said, giving Jasmine a reassuring smile.

Alainya looked over at Kevin, then remembered that he even surprised Jasmine a little, so she assumed that Urahane wasn't the friend that Jasmine was talking about. She knew she had stuff to do, but she was taught to be kind to others.

It would also be a good idea for her to become well acquainted with a healer.

[glitters]

Jasmine blinked and immediately shook her head.

"Oh, n-n-no, that's not necessary, Miss Igniatus," Jasmine smiled sweetly, "I wouldn't want to be a bother--you've probably got a lot of travelling to do yourself and need to look after yourself."

[Alainya Igniatus]

Alainya sighed, then looked at Jasmine again.

"I insist," she paused, "After all, I am traveling by myself, so it's not like I don't have enough money for it," she flashed a quick grin. She did have a lot of traveling to do, that's for sure, but she knew she should help out Jasmine.

She also did have more then enough money, she had been planning to travel for a while, so she had saved up a nice sum of money for it.

[glitters]

Jasmine looked rather ashamed, though she smiled up at Alainya.

"Oh dear...I travel with my friend and we still don't have any money," she answered quietly, "we did at first, and my mother would help us out if we were running a little low but..."

And she kinda trailed off because the player had to log off of her sister's computer.

[Alainya Igniatus]

((Wow Jess xD Just... wow.))

Alainya grinned at Jasmine again. She certainly felt bad or embarrassed or something being offered what some people called "handouts".

"So is that a yes to my offer?" she asked, giving a light shrug. Alainya didn't care if it seemed like she was being what some people might call pushy.

[glitters]

((I no, rite? I'm awesome))

"I...I suppose so," Jasmine answered quietly, feeling that this woman wasn't going to take 'no' for an answer. So, she quickly straightened herself up and put a more determined face on.

"Except I owe you for it, alright? Anything you need, you ask."

[Alainya Igniatus]

Alainya sighed, Jasmine first wouldn't accept her offer, now she wanted to pay her back some way, at any time possible. It amused Alainya slightly, but she shrugged it off for now. Her feet were sore and she just couldn't wait to eat.

"Alright," she said, giving a shrug, although Alainya thought that Jasmine paying her back would never happen, "Now, I'm quite hungry, so we should go find that friend of yours, then fill our stomachs," she patted her belly. Alainya certainly couldn't wait to eat.

[glitters]

Jasmine shook her head.

"It's best not to wait for him, he'll be sure to find us," she answered with a smile, "really. He does this all the time. Do you know of anywhere nearby that's relatively cheap?"

[Alainya Igniatus]

Alainya scratched her head and sighed. "No, this is the first time I've been here..." she gave Jasmine a weak smile. "But I've heard of an inn here that's good, and they serve some relatively cheap food," she chuckled. She felt silly for some reason, not knowing where most of the buildings for food and drink were in Ventus.

"We should start heading out though, before it gets late," Alainya said, hoisting her backpack up so she could start walking right away.

[glitters]

Jasmine made sure she had the rest of her own belongings as she followed along with Alainya further into Ventus. It was an odd city, but to her of course it would have been simply because she had never been to...well, Ariadelvento itself in her life.

"I apologize, I'm not familiar with many of these places. I've lived all of my life up until the past year in Crepusculum kingdom itself. My mother sent me to help in the war and suddenly I'm travelling everywhere," Jasmine tried to make small conversation as they headed through the town, eventually spying the warmly lit building that was the inn, "it's been a nice experience, though. I've met wonderful people, and many more not so wonderful people..."

She shook her head and kept thoughts like those of Trucido and Lilith out of her mind. She smiled at Alainya and tried to slightly change the subject, or rather lead it in a different direction.

"Where did you come from, Miss Igniatus?" she asked as they finally entered the small inn.

[Alainya Igniatus]

Alainya listened to Jasmine as she described how she started her travels. She was quite interested in the fact that she met many, what Jasmine called it, not so wonderful people, but, based on the fact that they had just met, she decided not to press on the subject.

"I happen to be from Nemus Village," she said as she chose a table near a window. "I didn't plan on traveling, but, I decided to try to find someone," she said, leaning her head against her hand.

"Your travels certainly sound much more interesting than mine," she chuckled lightly. Alainya heard her stomach growl, and knew that it would be a good time to get some food. She waved down a nearby bar maid, eager to get whatever food they had.

[glitters]

Jasmine's face fell at the sound of "Nemus Village", knowing full well that it was located in Alberisato...and as of late Alberisato had been anything but kind to her and her family. Her thoughts went straight to her father, poisoned by the queen and missing an eye and then to her mother, with Queen Lilith herself standing over the woman's dead body.

She shuddered. "I-is it nice in Nemus Village?" she asked, "otherwise, it's good to travel especially if you have a reason other than travelling for the sake of it I would think. I can't say much about how 'interesting' my own travels have been, but I can say that they've brought me only the most wonderful things in my life and at the same time, the greatest hurts of all. It's all because of the war, though..."
