Gaius

Spinning the stupid little wheel strapped to the side of this thing, as what he had a hold of just lets go like an asshole. "And why is this better?" Gaius asks rhetorically, either to the pond or the pole itself. It just seemed so, less hands on then the alternative. He grumbles for a minute, obviously pissed off. Slinging the hook back into the waves, watching it sink just out of view as it drags a bobber. "Just you wait, I'll get your approval. Even if I've got to fish it up out of this fucking lake." Gaius spins the spool, trying to goad one of the little bastards outside of view to take a

A wiggle on his line and he peels free another, his eyes fixated on his spear as he returns the cast. This one had been, what, his third so far? Thoughts shift to the smith, Freya's dad. The guy really seemed to want to turn his face into a crater on more than one occasion. But that pole arm was his work, as were all that he wielded. If the guy truly couldn't stand him, then why help him at all? A rake of his hand through the hair on the back of his head, trying to scratch away the confusion. "Am I right for her? Does it really matter if she's happy?" Gaius asked the pole as if it held some an

The line shrinks, as the reel begins to spin. Gaius stops and pulls hearty on the line, and with a sharp tug a floundering beast lays suspended. The dragoon grins, eying the large fish and the reflection of the sun of its scales. "Another one for the ice chest." He was still trying to get a handle on things when it came to using a pole, he was more of the sort to just get in there and do it himself. Tools were the least of his worries. As he returns the line to the water, he takes a seat again and folds his legs beneath himself. The guy was honestly trying to learn to be more 'peaceful?' was t

Charge Refreshed!, ID:199942 | Battle:4, Craft:12, Loot:7 (+3 EN), +34 via Battle Healing There it was, more whining from Freya. He shakes his head, watching that little bar fill up and taking godforsaken forever. He couldn't let it rip until it was filled, and was at a complete loss of words on how to convey it. The weapon seemed completely overcharged, and yet it was still telling him that it wasn't done. His attentions shift to the blinding green light above his right shoulder, seeing if he could even make it out within the glow. It catches his eyes just right, that he's seeing stars.

Charge CD [2/3] More and more of the dragoon's energy just pools into his weapon, charging brighter and brighter, despite it appearing as there was nothing left to give. The dude resembled a glowing green sun, just held aloft by some unseen force, his given gemini skill being basically a kite. He'd wait until that bar hit that sweet spot, and he had faith in the tiny specs that looked like ants up here. After all, every single one of them had put up with his shit before, and that was before he was taking things even some semblance of seriously. His eyes catch that little tiny rounded edge

Charge CD [1/3] Watching from above as Freya becomes two dudes, and one starts winking and just being obtuse. "I need like two more seconds, either of you." He barks with a heavy wind still slowing him down and keeping him airborne. His eyes dart to the pole arm, still filling with every ounce of energy he could pour into it. You could barely tell that it was even a weapon by this point, it looked more like a sun being held. "Just keep it busy or..." The dragoon is cut off by a sudden screech from Lun'Rael as ice explodes out of one of the heads necks, she was really buying the farm. "Lik

A soft trickling breeze and an equally gentle hand at the small of his back. "I get that a lot." he stared into the now rippling pool, as if watching for something to look back at him. There was just an honesty that hung in the air, a peace that lingered like an aroma. The whole world the players were trapped in, melting away through simple conversation. His eyes advance to the flat of his left hand, tracing the lines on his palm with his gaze. Gaius's head twists and a grin begins to draw itself upon his gullet. "Deal" A shift of his hand into a clenched fist, before he barrels into

Description: Whether impossible or laughable, we continue to walk the path of men. One swipe, with enough gravi

"I don't like fighting, but if I don't people will walk all over me." Gaius admitted for the first time he'd ever, and it was the first time he'd ever considered the idea. The sisters seemed so different despite sharing the same face, and even when he first met the pair, he was confused by them. "When you stand up for what you believe, what you want and yourself, some people just don't like it. Not wanting to fight and being forced to are two completely different things. It's probably how I do it, and I know that but fuck if I am going to let people bad mouth what I care about." His mind raced

Still above, a growing wave of power slowly building in an extended polearm. Gravity was building as the winds worked to hold him aloft, slowly descending at an obviously changed pace. The rest of Firm Anima would just have to hold out long enough for 'the big one'. "Freya, I'm counting on you!" Gaius yells from the sky above, damn near inaudible via the range. "Get me a soft spot, the squishier, the better." With that last statement, his signature grin begins to draw itself along his mouth. He was going for broke, and it was obvious he was gaining mass. The giant glowing ball of lime green li

A raised eyebrow, he noticed a pattern in Freya, but didn't really have anything concrete before now. She has a habit of flirting instinctually when things get a little too serious. Watching her just guzzle wine like a man was something else, and Gaius couldn't really understand how outside the mold she was for a girl. "Good, no way to live life in someone else's shoes." He kneels down, pressing his belly to the ring of the water, staring Freya at eye level. Shoving his head in and plucking it out, letting the water just dribble from his bangs. He unlike the girl did not bring a bathing suit,

"I guess, I just wanted to wave a spear around like a badass. I don't really buy into the whole 'let peace solve everything'. Sounds like a good way to let everyone walk all over you." As Freya strips down to her skivvies and hops into a waterhole. Looking to the girl who now resembled an otter, her hair becoming almost knotted up from the moisture. He raises an eyebrow at her question, "I mean it was a way for me to practice, learn and train without getting tired. It's basically an audiobook for school that you can learn to fight to your heart's content. What's not to love, excluding the bear

"I deserved it, to be honest. I can always count on you to keep me in check." Gaius laughed, ruffling his hair on the back of his head. It was her he thought about when he got into it with Raidou and Freyd, the first time he backed down. It was for the better, and he found himself thinking more than he had ever. As she'd grip his hand tighter, it helped provide something solid he could focus on. This moment felt so fleeting, so imaginary, that it helped provide some tangibility to it. "A teacher, yeah, I could see it. Just be ready, kids can be assholes." he reciprocated a past, with an h

A clatter of the bottle's rim rubbing against the glass, a bit more of that slightly translucent red finding the interior. He'd give it a few seconds of honest pouring, before setting the redware bottle down. There was something so, real here. These two players almost insignificant under the star scape that dwarfed them, like ants in a tornado. "Your dad isn't a bad guy, no one that's protective of anything is." The smith almost tore his ass open on more than one occasion so far, and it probably wouldn't be the last time, neither. "Regrets, I try not to think about it. I figure instead of tryi

"I dunno, I don't really think I need a reason. I just want to, and that is enough." Gaius didn't really know how to put it to words, the guy wasn't quite a thinker. "No bullshit" Gaius stares into the side of her head, allowing her the respite, but he was too resolute to avoid his own. "I still am not convinced I am doing anything right, but I feel like, out of any of my fuck ups. Out of all the mistakes and times I stuck my own foot in my ass, That out of it all." His vision twists to look into the starscape above. "If I've done one thing right my entire life, it was you." That simple breeze

"Been a while, I gotta be like 24 by now using that math. But I don't really care." He continued to watch the stars, lifting a hand to peer at them through his fingers. It was a bit weird, sure, but Freya acted much older than a number. It explained Griswold's hang up a bit, but she was more than a child by now. Through that extended hand, he catches the glancing scatter of a single star rushing across the inky blackness. "My wish?..." He pauses, putting a bit of thought into it as a warm mitt finds his kneecap. "You know, I could wish for anything. But the one thing I really want these d

"Somehow I knew that one." Gaius remarked, and it seemed almost like his typical jest, and yet it wasn't. Freya was clearly defiant and filled with her own decision-making, so it made sense that she'd be the one to carve her own way and do what she liked. Glancing to the ring now held around his left hand, a simple platinum band that meant more than the sum of its parts. He manages to catch the girl slipping his own on her finger, and a burning kiln in his chest helped cement that it was real. A soft nip in the air worked to stabilize and ground that which was fleeting into a dream. Pouring hi

Listening on as Freya choked on some crap she brought, he'd never tried sake, so he'd leave her to that shit. "Fair enough." Gaius stared into the night sky, lost in it and feeling almost so small. A sudden plate, he instinctually plucks up. It looked alright, but it was clear that Freya still wasn't quite on his level. The chicken was a little dry, but for once he couldn't bring himself to complain about it. Taking a bite as he listened to her lay it all out, she liked to talk a ton when she was nervous. Gaius knew it. "Not a lot of room in this thing to learn anything about anyone." his

Approaching with half a heart shape cookie hanging out of his gullet, a slight bit of flour stuck to his fingertips. The pets had gotten into the pantry again, and there was tiny white paw prints virtually everywhere. He managed to clean some of it up before he found the note. "What's up?" Gaius barks out before it sinks in... This uh, thing. There was a sudden bit of nerves planted pretty quickly on his face, and he slinks over and folds his legs into a butterfly. "This is sorta a super weird place to eat, you know." It seemed almost stammered and nervious. Scratching the back of his head, an

Charge Refreshed! A heavy storm of scattering sand and dust as Gaius lands, twirling the polearm in his grasp and ripping it above his right shoulder. A single whirlwind as he tears it from right to left, a discharge of energy sees the forces aimed at Celeste torn asunder from the pressure alone. It carves a perfect circle into the soil beneath them, as his clothes and hair flutter in that gust. A twist of his shoulder, the lime green flare beginning to take shape again at the point of that long and slender glaive. "Whatever chick, you know I used to be like you. Then I realized that shit

Charge CD: [2/3] A small tinge of petals gets sucked up into a coming maelstrom, winds picking up. A gleaming star of green above, drops like a missile upon a few unsuspecting foes. They explode out from the point of impact, shattering under the detonation. Once the dust clears, Gaius steps off of one as it starts to turn to digital ash. Ripping his pole arm out and spinning it, as more move in and start to take swipes at him with held short swords. "That's pretty good, but it's not really doing the trick." He comments with a grin weaving through the blows, catching a few with the whirlin

The gust of wind as Gaius leaps into the sky, a vibrant lime green spear carrying with it one helpless soul on its end. "Sucks to be you." Gaius barks, twisting it around and heaving it toward the floor in a cataclysmic oomph, all before yelling out to those it was barreling toward. "Hey spook, heads up!" Gaius barks out knowing full well that Freyd would finish the job. Being held aloft as the wind pressure built around him rather heavily, the polearm in his grasp beginning to charge brighter. Like a star it starts to light up the sky he hung in, sizing up where was going to be the best place
