Ariel - The Crowned Lion

and so, it continued, The blonde's unrelented drive towards becoming grand master tailor didn't falter as she still found herself crafting items. As soon as she parted with Grave, the blonde resumed her crafting spree making haste of the time she had left for today's attempts. She put all she had in them as she had other important business in preparing for the boss fight. Gathering the last minute supplies was one of them. #1 ID#55403 CD: 11 (10+1) [Rare Item: 6 EXP] #2 ID#55404 CD: 6 (5+1) [Good Item: 3 EXP] #3 ID#55405 CD: 10 (9+1) [Rare Item: 6 EXP] #4 ID#55406

As the final day of preparations for the 15th boss fight came, the blonde rushed towards the familiar by now shop and entered it with panting sounds. "The crystals,,, and potions... now!" she asked with a very demanding tone. It was the last place she'd visit before meeting up with Hikoru and going towards the boss raid location. "Guys, I'm serious... I'll pay you back later. for now give me all the higher tier healing and support stuff you got." I said in pleading tone this time as I looked around for the three players responsible with the management of this shop.

And the 'game' didn't disappoint her as yet another mob came into her sights. It was probably looking for its friend who was taking too long to come back... They say curiosity killed the cat but this time the self proclaimed feline would be the one who did the killing. She launched herself at the new prey but it had better digital instincts than his friend, evading the blonde's thrust by mere millimeters. Even more the mob had even.managed to counterattack and take a shot at her. Too bad it only scraped her armor.. again the system took that as a successful hit and deducted 1 health point from

A now day with new stuff that had happened. The blonde was again in good spirits as she found a lead singer/performer for her wedding, thus pushing the actual date much more closer. She happily put a 'O' to check that particular things of the preparation list and went to the next remaining things. Taking a mental note to PM the right people the blonde closed the virtual window and went to pick several materials from her inventory and began once again her daily craft attempt. Yet again she had no orders but didn't despair as she was still in 'treaties' for a new organization to take birth. With

At the mention of the last fight the blonde left out a sigh, her expression darkening just for a moment. Then put on the facade she had build after that event and offered a smile, she couldn't say that it didn't hurt but she couldn't blame the girl for asking. And Ariel will have to get over it sometime, the sooner the better was what the brain told her but her heart would still ache at the mention of her friend's death. She decided to answer her last question first as it was still fresh in the air. "Yes!" she simply replied as she changed her gaze towards the sky. "I was also part of th

A small giggle escaped Ariel's mouth as her favorite Irishman dashed into the shop and left as quickly. She had plans for him and Zandra and was extremely glad that they accepted her request. With that the wedding was one step closer to happening and the blonde could barely contain her excitement on the matter. Even her crafts had gained a somehow cheery aspect even though it wasn't her intention. As she heard Grave's introduction and replied with a smile to his reaction: "Glad to see you like them... call it a merchant's instinct! The name's Ariel, Field Commander of the .....errmmm.."

Sensing her destined one's lips brush against her cheek, the blonde couldn't help but smile and hug him. "Good morning to you too Nighto-kun. My own 'knight in shining armor'. Are you here to keep me safe?" she asked with a giggle as the fight was about to begin. Despite using a damage potion earlier the blonde began to think that it was in vain as the boss' HP bar was rapidly declining with each hit it recieved. When came Opal's turn the blonde was about to give up entirely on having the chance to hit the abomination they fought this time. It was even more easier than the Cupid boss event a w

There should've been a quest here, that was what she was told by the information brokers. They informed her that a quest with a huge reward had appeared recently on the third floor. So she went to find out what was going on and until now as she finished this bandit, she wasn't impressed. Nor that she had any idea why the quest reward was so high. So far she only meet just this guy and he didn't prove himself such a headache. She collected the loot and looked around for more. Maybe he had friends nearby that could entertain her better.

Today the blonde went out testing the new item she'd received from the Easter Event that just ended.Bandits seemed to the the new thing in SAO as the blonde had encountered another quest that included them. This time instead of being at the 9th floor where the bandit camp laid, the blonde found herself roaming the fields around Delilah Village. This time she opted to leave her familiar behind as the lioness was busy taking a nap and got disturbed when ariel asked her if she'd want to come. Now, she was currently fighting one of said bandits thinking that it was the same kind of quest as the on

A new day several other crafting attempts available... that was with what this particular blonde was going as she pulled out several more materials from the stack and took a seat at her workstation. Today was yet another day without any orders, not that she could complain about it too much. last couple of days have been packed but now she enjoyed he quiet. And so in the deafening silence the blonde began to craft. She prepared the items for Jomei and Zandra, placing them in boxes, in the event one of them will come and pick them up. @Jomei #1 ID#54897 CD: 12 (11+1) [Perfect Item:

"A few is no problem." said the blonde with a smile. "Dungeons and things like that but when every quest is done for you your person being there just as a spectator or a spoiled kid, that's when problems start coming up for you and the others around you, later on. And that is a dangerous thing up there." she emphasized where she was referring to by pointing her right index towards the sky. Anyone with more than a half brain would assume that she meant the latest available floor where a boss raid planning had just concluded a little bit back, to which she too was part off. She'd assume she too

"There!" she said as she pointed out toward a shady looking NPC covered all in dark. She appeared to be heading in their direction and the blonde knew she would as this was the 2nd sensation of Deja-vú she'd get, having finished the quest twice already. Before the NPC engaged them into conversation, mentioning the details of the quest the blonde replied to her heavy armored counterpart: "Lately several members of the frontliner team have stepped down to the lower floors to 'train' new people out of a desire to improve our numbers or simply from boredom. I've seen them take people below level 5

@Grave The blonde was pleasantly surprised to see that a old client returned for an improvement. As if she knew this would happen she went back and took a pair of items then dropped them on the counter in front of him: "I knew you'd come back, so when I got bored I made you a secondary set. Got a feeling you'd need them soon. If you want them they're 10,000 col and 7 materials." she replied with a smile. "That includes a 3mats/3000 col discount." Then the blonde waved at Hikoru as he left next turning her attention towards Manta. Reaching underneath the counter she gave the girl he

At the mention of her name, the now golden furred lioness... as the sands had already claimed the natural white color of her fur. She was pretty displeased with the floor's condition overall but became rather excited at the mention of her name and dashed towards the armor clad girl that summoned her. A repeat of their initial encounter seemed imminent as the lioness showed yet again, no signs of slowing down. From behind her, the other self-titled lioness of SAO noded as well and simply shouted: "You better dodge!" expecting Kimba once again to jump Hunnie. But that didn't happen as her compan

post for item placements. each one is in a box with the respective person's name on it. pick up the box, pay the price and feel free to tip. As she heard/read the orders one by one the blonde simply nodded and began to word. She had much to do and wouldn't spend time idly gazing at the walls. She'd have a chat with them after she finishes, with her customers as well. First she made Niko's item as it seemed easy enough and required little materials. As she finished it, she put it in a green box and pushed it towards the boy: "That will be 10 materials or 10000 col." she simply said with a

It wasn't that hard to make the update order she got from the cute pink haired girl. She did all the parts of the outfit that she could then wrapped them neatly and placed them inside a box. When it came to write her clint's name she took a second then to think then wrote in a light pink color "Pink haired undecided girl" she showed a smile as she presented her with the box. "There you go, free of charge!" She put a finger against her lips saying: "This will be our little secret." The blonde didn't need any material for now as the universal prices were more of a bumper to prevent people from o

Floor 5, yet again the two companions found themselves in this special little slice of burning Hell. The 'special' about it was that is seemed to be a bit more bearable than the 9th floor where the main setlement was literally suspended on top of an active vulcano. Still minor discomfort was nothing compared with the chance of making a new friend.. or in this case bounding with them. She'd experienced it with another pink haired friend of hers but lately their interaction had come to a stop after Ariel made a certain transaction. She would want to mend things with her but that's a thought bett

Another day and a new crafting session the last one went...okay. She wasn't really feeling it today. She began crafting out of necessity rather than pleasure. Still she was aspiring to stand on top of the other tailors "what do you think girl? should I do it?" she asked her furred familiar. In return to her blonde companion's voice, Kimba let out a bored snort and went back to sleeping in front of the fireplace. The blonde let out a sigh to such non-enthusiastic reply and continued crafting. #1 ID#53731 CD: 5 (4+1) [Good Item: 3 EXP] #2 ID#53732 CD: 7 (6+1) [Uncommon Item: 4

OOC: just a random post, randomly placed here to randomly hold a spot while I randomize some stats and add a random reply. Easter wasn't really a thing Ariel celebrated, though her family tried through her father to include them she never really felt the 'festivity' in them. Easter was something she didn't liked the meaning of, commercially speaking. Rabbits hiding eggs for children to search and eat, this type of ads on TV left the blonde with a bad taste in her mouth for some reason. Today as a wide message spread through Aincrad she would feel the same taste in her mouth again, upon re

It wasn't much but the blonde crafted, she was getting low on inspiration on what she would craft next. Not accepting custom orders was quite the ordeal for the blonde. She sighted as she sew another button, joined two parts of a of a shirt and so on. Things were getting pretty repetitive ever since she had began heavily crafting a while back. It's been too long since she had that initial outburst of creativity and make whatever she dreamed... then materials were the problem...now? its inspiration to create new stuff. She decided to put an add in order to craft new things. She didn't specify t
