The Rorcal nodded, saying "I'll definitely pull my weight. I can!" She smiled brightly, her row of sharp teeth showing as Mercusius hummed. At least she was determined?
Remiel nodded. "Yes, there are regular competitions, but one must be careful here because there aren't any rules like in Crystalline. Well, no killing anyone of course, but the rest is pretty much out of the window."

“You are dismissed.” Necromancer said simply after that. Once the Rorcal left Necromancer looked to Mercurius and said, “I liked her spirit. I’d rather have someone who works hard than someone who thinks too highly of themselves. We do need to get some muscle though.”
“Wait, so monsters can almost kill them then? And people will just be okay with that?” Cally asked. She then frowned saying, “none of you better compete then unless you know you’re going to win without bad injuries or so help me-“

Mercurius nodded, saying "We might need to travel a bit for some muscle. There are some fighters here, but I don't think we'll find any of the heavy hitters."
Remiel shrugged. "Well, we have master healers here anyway, a few on standby. Monsters need to be able to really exercise their power, or else they will die for sure in a real fight if they come across someone who has."

Necromancer nodded, “alright. I’ll keep that in mind.” He said, “but we definitely do need to up our power levels if we actually want to be taken seriously.”
Calmly nodded, “still... I don’t want to see any of you getting hurt...”
Criss rolled her eyes and smiled a little, “okay, mom.” She said.

Mercurius scoffed playfully. "Why look further when you have these guns?" He flexed his muscles, grinning to himself at his oh-so impressive physique. He was definitely fit, but not exactly a heavy hitter they needed. Remiel smiled gently at Cally before looking over. People were gathering around as someone walked into view. Virtue, one of the four Zodiac monsters and who humans based all of their Earth Signs off of. Big, bulky guy with massive horns, cape swishing behind him. His presence drew out some of the humans, who walked up to him and greeted him happily. (Virtue)

Necromancer laughed at this, his laughter naturally loud enough to easily take up the whole room, “I stand corrected. Turns out all I need is a tank like you. I am so very intimidated by just your size and strength alone!” He joked.
Cally saw Remiel looking before looking to where the crowd was, “oh, I know of him I think. My parents did tell me about him when I was little.” She said.

Mercurius laughed along with Necro, smiling as he said "I know, right? I'll take on any monster out there!" He posed heroically on top of his stool, ignoring the looks he got.
Remiel hummed, saying "He's the favorite of humans out of the Zodiac monsters, probably because he used to be one of their chief protectors. Super nice. There's something off about him though." Fatid snorted, saying "Or he could just be really nice." The angel grumbled "No one's that nice all the time!"

Necromancer raised an eyebrow, “really now?” He asked, “anyone you say?” He looked to him challengingly.
“He’s probably just being polite. Being friendly to others when you’re out in public is usually what people and monsters should be doing.” Cally said simply, “but I trust you if you think something is off. He’s probably just not as happy as he lets on.”

Mercurius smiled sheepishly. "Um... yes?" He perked up again. "... yes! Definitely anyone!" He wouldn't back down!
Fatid sighed as he listened to them before looking as Virtue walked over. "Hello, Remiel. You too, Fatid. And Crissandre!" He then smiled charmingly at Cally. "And who's this pretty lady?"

Necromancer had an amused look on his face as he leaned his elbow on the table, “so you wouldn’t back down from a challenge from me?” He said, “you did say you could take on any monster.. right?”
Calmly smiled a little, “hello. I’m Caroline.” She said, “but you can call me Cally if you’d like.”

Mercurius kept his sheepish smile as he said "Of course! I'll fight anyone!" He looked over at Necromancer. "... but like, right now though?"
Virtue smiled as he said "Well, it is very nice to meet you, Cally." Remiel grumbled and said "Your fan club is waiting for you, you know." He sounded a bit jealous almost, watching the earth monster as he talked with Cally.

Necromancer shrugged, giving Mercurius a mischievous look still, “sure. Why not?” He said simply, “or whenever you see fit. I’d like to see what you got.”
Cally looked good Remiel, “so it should mean something that he’s over here with us.” She looked back to Virtue, “I’ve heard many stories about you. All good of course.”

Mercurius got a determined look. "Okay, now then. We can go find somewhere to test our skills."
Virtue chuckled gently. "I'm hoping. I'm the most involved out of the Zodiac. Bright is always off on adventures, Mystery likes to be alone and Passion would rather fight literally anything than make friends."

“You’re on... but not now. Not until I make sure I have all the possible recruits that I will see fit to be in my court.” Necromancer said.
Cally nodded, “I’ve been told about them too. I’m glad you’re out here making appearances though. It’s good.” She said happily.

Mercurius sighed dramatically. "Just make sure they're not hot. That's, like, a no-no so you can stay focused. Except for me of course. I'm an exception."
Virtue nodded at that. "Indeed. Someone should at least try to be nice to them all." He smiled charmingly again. "Doesn't hurt if I get to see pretty humans like you while visiting too." He then rolled his eyes as Remiel cleared his throat.

Necromancer laughed again before saying, “I was going to say. You sound like a hypocrite since you asked for a job to get close to me.”
Cally blushed at this, smiling softly up at him. She then looked back to Remiel, raising an eyebrow. He hadn’t made many moves yet, so why should she be tethered to him right now? She wouldn’t actually pursue Virtue.. yet at least. Her heart was still Remiel’s.

Mercurius gasped dramatically. "Moi? Little ol' me would never do such a thing!" His sheepish smile said otherwise. "But hey, at least you've got a first joiner?"
Virtue chuckled at the two. "I can see Remiel is a bit jealous right now, so I'll go for now. Maybe we'll cross paths tomorrow though, assuming you will be going to see Uriel when he arrives."

Necromancer laughed again, “you know. I don’t think I’ve laughed this much in a long time.” He said, “it’s nice.”
Cally looked back at Remiel before saying, “he’s just being possessive.” She said softly, “I kind of like it though if that’s alright to say. It was really nice meeting you. We definitely should try to cross paths again.” She said. Once he left, Cally looked back to Remiel and the group. Criss went off to the side a little, not wanting to get in the way .

Mercurius smiled at that. "It's good you're lightening up then. It'll make this travel easier."
Remiel then said after Virtue left "He wanted in your pants." Fatid snorted at that, saying "Or he could've just been friendly." Virtue was known for flirting with humans though, a bit of a hopeless romantic at times too.

Necromancer nodded, “it definitely will. I’m glad I appointed you as my assistant. Even if you did just want to have it at first to get into bed with me.” He looked to him with a knowing look.
Cally shrugged, “I know. But it’s not every day you get to say you slept with a monster like him. Though I do know one monster I’d want more..”

Mercurius smiled guiltily. "Whaaaaat? Me? Never!" His ears flattened in embarrassment.
Remiel smirked at Cally, and Fatid gave Criss a look that said the two of them were third and fourth wheeling. Fatid then said "Come on, let's finish up with looking around. I want to find some alcohol soon."

Necromancer raised an eyebrow saying, “I wasn’t born yesterday, fox.” He said before smirking, “but if I were to want to return the favor for everything you’ve done for you, you wouldn’t object.. would you?” He said, eyeing him.
Criss nodded in agreement, “yes, alcohol sounds good right about now.” She said before nudging Fatid, “though I’m not sure we really want Cally drunk right now.” She said quietly.

Mercurius blinked once at that. "Uh... well, I mean..." He smiled a little. "It depends on what that means..."
Fatid nodded a little at that, and Remiel said "Well, maybe we can go tomorrow night. After we've settled and all. I doubt Cally's parents would like her going back drunk on the first day here."

Necromancer smirked a little, “I think you know what it means~ I’ll leave it up for interpretation~” he said simply before finishing off his drink. “You do deserve a treat after helping me out so much...”
Criss nodded, “alright. I still think I want to go out though if anyone wants to join me for some fun.”

Mercurius' ears perked up a bit at that. The Warmaster was actually encouraging him for once? The fox smiled at that before looking as the next monster walked up.
Fatid said he'd go, saying "It'll be fun maybe. Might make some new friends too." Though Criss would have better luck with that.

Necromancer gave Mercurius one last look before looking to the monster saying, “show us what you got.” They didn’t have to do the introduction part.
Criss nodded, “it’ll also just be nice to have fun just the two of us. Less attention on Remiel and we don’t need to worry about Cally getting kidnapped or anything.” She said as she began to walk to find a bar.

Mercurius studied the guy. Burning Rogue, a sort of mercenary. Somewhat human looks, except with pointed ears, red eyes and a flat nose. The archer ran a hand through his red hair, saying "Well, I can't shoot much in here, but I'm a good archer. I'm also a scout."
Fatid followed after Criss, and Remiel decided to walk Cally back home to her family.

“Have you worked with anyone before. If so who?” Necromancer asked, wanting to know if he could be trusted. “Also, do you have your bow and arrows with you now?”
Cally gently held Remiel’s hand, kissing the back of it as if to tell him she was still loyal to him. Criss eventually found a bar and held the door open for Fatid. Once inside she offered to pay for drinks at the bar.

(Just got back from seeing Jumanji and it was good x3)
Rogue shrugged, saying "I'm a traveler. And I do mercenary work. I always need my bow."
Remiel smiled gently at Cally, saying "I'm glad your family decided to come. Especially you." He wanted her safe.
Fatid grunted a thanks to Criss as she said she'd pay. "My treat next time though." If there was a next time?
