Blueberry

It almost seemed too easy pushing through the Ifrit. With the amount of high-leveled players they had, the Ladonian forces were cut down with ease. Of course, the pink-haired player wouldn't do much to assist in the slaughter other than restoring energy and health to the payers who needed it. The only thing the girl seemed to be actively doing was avoiding areas that Freyd was. Of course, it might make more sense for her to be around those locations in case the man would try to send them to their deaths like he almost had her.

Following the main group forward, the commotion would begin to rise as they stood outside the gate to the Main Control Room. It seemed that they had been effectively locked out. "Does anyone have a really big battering ram?" she would question aloud. Almost as if in answer, a stranger would appear to blow open the door. Who was this dude? Instead of introducing himself, the man instead would converse with the bad guy the group had come for. 

It all happened so fast, and the smaller stature girl would find herself being suddenly pushed back by a powerful gust. "What the-!" Hitting the ground, she would attempt to plant herself in the ground. With her lighter weight, it would seem that she would be blown completely out by this wind. That was until it would suddenly shut off like an off switch. A blonde-haired woman seemed to be keeping it in check, but not for long. Cracks were already beginning to form from the building pressure. This wouldn't last.

Repositioning herself, she would hold out her hands. 

"Barrier."

A second bubble would form around the enemy's stone. Hopefully, that would keep it sealed away for just a little longer.

Blue would jump at the sudden movement that would pierce one of the remaining two pilots through the chest. Electric blue eyes filled with shock would look to Alkor as he began to ask questions to the remaining pilot. The damaged pilot collapsed to the floor, his heath having fallen considerably. All the baker could do was sit back and watch as he ruthlessly murdered the two remaining people they had to move the ship. 

"Sorry about this, Get ready to jump."

Panic and anger surged through her. What kind of person was Alkor? Would she ruin their chance at friendship if she shouted at him? From what she deduced based on his action, he would either respect her or strike her down. A gamble... it always was with new types of people. Was this even a person though, or was it a wolf in sheep's clothing?

"Do you really think it only takes one person?" Blue questioned under her breath. Her eyes floated to the different seats that lined different controls. Of course, multiple of them were probably not vital for their task but there were more vital positions than just steering. "JUMP? You're just as crazy as the redhead that was chucking statues. There is no way we can just jump and make it in that ship. You heard her, if we crash into the side at all that's it. What about the team we left behind? Forget about them or are you just trying to dispose of everyone left?" 

"Beg pardon, but I'd rather not die if we can help it." 

The Ladonian Taxi pilot and the Galtean rebels had finally joined them. Slowly approaching Alkor at the controls, he would attempt to speak some sense into the men. "I've been driving Ladonia ships for several years, I think I should be able to dock this vessel properly... without smashing it against the side of another ship and potentially falling to our deaths." 

Thank goodness. There was still someone alive that could pilot it. "Go ahead, if Mr. Crash-Every-Ship-Into-Another has a problem with it, I'll hit him with a pan," she would reply grumpily. "Probably not wise to damage the ship you intend to get on in the first place. A quick way to meet Fate." 

Taking a seat at the helm, the Ladonian Pilot would begin instructing the rebels at the various stations to begin steering the ship. "This thing is already difficult to drive, that hole we punctured through it isn't helping at all." The ship would begin to slow from the high-speed that Alkor had commanded it into as their airship began to approach the rear-end docks of the Mothership. Pressing an overhead green button would cause it to flash for several seconds before bay doors opened to let them through. The ship would slowly enter before becoming locked in by machines. 

"There we go, we have arrived. I don't think I will be charging you folk this time around."

@Alkor

To her pleasant surprise, there was no one to heed the pink-haired player's way forward. It seems that her partner in crime had already infiltrated and wiped the enemy's ranks. What kind of beast had she paired up with? With the Galteans securing the Elites in bindings, it was only her and Alkor pressing forward. It wasn't too much of an issue, the Galteans were not on par with players whatsoever. 

After a couple of minutes of cautiously walking forward, the sound of voices led her to the ship's control room. It seemed that Alkor had managed to threaten the Ladonian pilots into steering them towards the big ship that hung them in the air. Stepping forward to watch, the pilot would stretch her fingers across several different buttons. The ship would begin to turn before slowly pushing towards the Ifrit. 

"Fly faster," the voice of Alkor growled. "Sir, if we crash into the Ifrit, none of us will escape the ship alive," the pilot's voice would warn. A finger would find and reach and flick a small red switch at the right end of the console. "Red is never a good color, what did you press?" the pink-haired player would ask. "It's just to transmit to the Ifrit to open its loading dock for our ship," the pilot would hastily reply. "Oh? Alright then~" Blue would respond. It was obvious to the girl that the pilot was lying but doing something now wouldn't actually help them board the Ifrit and the damage had already been done. Whatever it was. 

@Alkor

Many seemed exasperated in her decision to leave the slime alone. Luckily, Koga seemed fine enough with the idea. When he raised his question, Blue would answer him bluntly. "He'll get out one way or another. I told ya, he doesn't like being away from me." Little did she know the reason why though. Turning around, she would leave the slime behind. 

Blue's departure would only serve to continue to aggravate the slime. For a gelatinous figure, it couldn't appear more upset. These random humans were fussing all about and now the one he had chosen was retreating? The pink-haired fool would pay dearly.  Most likely to the other's surprise, it would move forward and away from the towards the door in the kitchen. Abruptly, it would stop and turn. A perfectly aimed stream of water would sprinkle through the air and into the sink. After all of the water it had picked up was expelled, Fraz-Urb'luu would rush after its source of nourishment. 

Another drink of that wine would reach her lips. This baker hadn't attempted to make any drinks so she would have to concede defeat to Gaius in that sense. Blue wasn't too worried unless the man managed to be better at crafting desserts than her as well. An uproar of voices caught her attention, especially the familiar irritated tone that had been introduced to her at the start of this party.

'Pink-haired dessert saboteur'? What an interesting nickname. The brown-haired girl seemed to have quite the prissy attitude and for some strange reason, seemed to only pop in just to try and moderate things. Was this her house? Maybe this was frying-pan boi's girlfriend and she was upset with what was happening to her house. Blue wouldn't be saying anything to her, it would only serve to incur more of her ill-placed wrath. 

 "Why?"

Sticking a tongue out at the boy, "I don't know why your house was flooding but you're lucky Frazberry is in a good mood or else you would be mopping for hours." Luckily for her, Blue wouldn't even have to defend herself too much. Astreya would pop in before poking the enlarged slime.  "Blue you're the weird one, the hell is that thing?" Man, she had just received a bunch of unwanted attention, huh? "It's Frazberry. He kinda just follows me everywhere. I've accepted it." 

Standing, she would move to the kitchen door. It seemed there was enough water on the ground that the slime wouldn't be able to fit in the door normally. "Yo Fraz, can't you do something about yourself. You are apparently upsetting people." Her words were awarded with an anger symbol that would form at the top of the slime's head. "He didn't like that. Leave him alone, he'll figure something out. Fraz doesn't enjoy being away from me for too long so I'm sure he'll do something." 

@Alkor's command would reach her but she wasn't sure what exactly it was supposed to mean. Holding her pan with both hands, the pink-haired player would take a step back. 'I might have completely missed what the goal of this was...'  Heavy footsteps fell into place as a man in dark obsidian armor took his shot towards her companion's head. Sudden alarm gathered in the throats of the Galtean rebels at her side. Elite? What made this guy different than the rest. 

"I am judge Stelan, servant to Ladonia and its laws. I will defend both nation and its people from you rebel scum." 

The heavily armored man would pull his weapon from the airship's metal wall just as another of his kind entered the room. This second 'judge' wielded a massive spiked ball and chain as his weapon. 'Just how strong are these dudes?' her thoughts were almost answered as the ball smashed through the ground in front of her. Jolting into action, the girl would back up as she tried to think of what action to take next. A pressure suddenly rested upon her back as she reared into the pilot.

"Beg pardon lass, but it was all we could do to get you aboard. We can hold the Elites here, best-case scenario, just long enough... what I mean to say is, you have a much more important job. Please, let us handle this."

Tears filled her eyes before beginning to stream down her face. They were going to die if she left, weren't they? They were willing to die for whatever cause they were pushing forward to, huh? The baker was left with one of two options: Fight or continue. 

Words echoed through her head, annoying as they were. "This is the choice we all make: to sit by and let others bleed, or be willing to stand up alongside them.  This is what it means to be a player in Kayaba's game, Blueberry.  This is what it means to be Firm Anima!"

"Shut the hell up, @Freyd," is what she would say next. Instead of her normal cheery sound, the girl's voice had taken a more heartless tone. Electric blue eyes scouted the area. The man had already left, all that remained were the two elites, the NPC's, and her. "Lass, you need to leave now!" Shooting the man a look she would venomously reply, "Don't tell me what to do, I'm trying to concentrate!" A burning at her neck would flare along with her words. Bringing her hand up to her neck, it would find where dark blue scales had seemed to have grown from her neck. Her hand would become stuck there for a moment before the burning feeling attached to her hand instead. 

"Go ahead Fraz." She would tell her familiar. Dropping her frying pan, she would charge in barehanded. The spiked flail would once again strike in her direction but wouldn't be able to find its mark. Berry would slam the flat of her palm onto the enemy's armor a blue sludge would suddenly emit from it. Covering the man's armor, the sludge would begin to seep into the chinks in his armor. After a moment of attempting to reel in his weapon, the man would find that he no longer could. His strength had been completely sapped. The sludge would begin to take a shape, a small blue slime rested on top of the man's armor. 

Judge Stelan would glue his eyes on the pink-haired player. "What did you do?" His voice was quivering. "Stand down or you are next," she would warn him. The slime would bounce from the armor to the floor right in front of the man. Metal would ring out as a blade was dropped. "Good choice," she would offer the warrior. She looked back to the Galteans. "Tie him up and make sure he doesn't move. After that, forget what you saw and tell no one. Okay?" Her voice would suddenly regain its cheery atmosphere. 

Moving up the stairs, she would push forward towards her companion.

The sounds of metal clinking would only become louder until it came to a halt. Five Ladonian soldiers stepped forward, drawing blades of steel. A loud muffled voice was heard as they shouted from their helmets. "Halt! Surrender and we will make it quick!" Of course, the Galtean rebels didn't take to kindly. Drawing their own weapons, the rebels would retaliate. Clangs rang through the air as sword met sword. 

For a moment, Blue's eyes traveled to the tear in the metal wall that they had broken into. What would she do? Regardless, someone was going to get hurt. The baker had entered a place where no pacifist should tread. The battlefield. 

A frying pan was drawn from her back and the click of a button would see the handle extended. "I'm sorry but it seems I have to sacrifice one friendship for the sake of another." For those who knew Blue, her sudden ability would come as a surprise. The girl would move at an alarming sudden speed thanks to her combat mastery. A leap over the heads of those around her and the twirl in the air would give blue the momentum to slam the man right into the helmet of a soldier. Thanks to her actions, the protective headwear would fly off to the side and the guard would take a singular point of damage. "Ha! A frying pa-!" Suddenly, a small blue spike would shoot out and inject into the man's form. Clasping his neck as if a mosquito started to bite him, he would begin to cough uncontrollably before hitting the deck and becoming unable to move.

Waving down at the man, Blue would call down to him, "Sorry!"  

The day of reckoning had come in the form of a short, pink-haired girl wearing a dark blue jacket and dark leggings. A loud crash was heard as she slammed into the door of Astreya's shop. Peering inside, she would find many instruments ready for playing along with... chess tables? 

'I've never considered her to be a kind of person who plays chess. Wasn't she the energetic and fun-loving type? I don't really see her sitting down and playing a game of it. I'll keep it in mind though.' 

"Astreyaaaa!" Blue would call out in search of the southern-accented girl. Stepping inside with a frown, she would wait for the girl to appear. There wasn't a chance that the girl had stepped out and left the door unlocked, was there? It made sense given the girl's personality. Perhaps she had gotten the name wrong? Had this one been the one that went by 'Astralin'? With both of them in the same place it had made it somewhat difficult to remember which was who.

Handed cards, the girl would excitedly wait still for the game to begin. Why were they all just grabbing more cards and then getting upset? Confused, the girl simply sat and watched for a moment. As the round ended, Blue would finally speak up. "I don't even think that there is a 21 card. You guys are really bad at Go Fish, huh?" Suddenly Koga would shoot out of his seat towards the kitchen and curse loudly. "He's a real sore loser." the baker would mutter before looking to her cards. An Ace and a Queen had been her cards. Setting them down next to @Gaius she would tell him, "You guys play weird. I'm just going to watch from now on." 

“Uhm…Ir-Astreya…the floor…I think the house is flooding… Do…do you think he needs help?”

Electric blue eyes shifted lazily over to the speaker. When had this girl come over again? It was almost hard to focus on this many people at once. "Yo Frazberry," were the words to come out of her mouth giving @Nari-Lanreth the first impression she was talking to her. Instead, ripping itself off of her neck was a blue slime. A question mark formed on the surface of the creature's head. "I'll make you a batch of sweets if you go and clean up whatever mess is going on in that kitchen." The slime would turn itself to look towards the kitchen. It seemed to be pondering. "Two batches, final offer. You don't have long to decide." Suddenly, the small blue slime would start towards @Koga's kitchen. While she couldn't control the creature, she knew how to barter with it. 

Hopping into the kitchen through the door Koga opened, the slime would stop in the center of the room. A slurping noise would be audible as the water began to drain, the slime increasing in size slowly. 

The moment Blue rested her head on the cushion of the airship taxi's seat she would pass out. She was unknowing of the conversation between the Galtean rebels and Alkor. After having healed a few dozen injured soldiers she was adequately tired. She remained silent even as Gabrandr's spear cracked the sky. 

It wasn't until shouting throughout the airship's cab was heard that she woke up. Groggily, she would try to register what had suddenly happened. "ARE WE SERIOUSLY DOING THIS? WE'RE JUST GOING TO KAMIKAZE INTO IT?' The driver had a dark glint to his eyes as he nodded. Through the window the pink-haired player seen the side of a much larger ship that they were preparing to slam into. Yawning, the girl would hold up her hands and a blue light would shine from them. Just before the impact only one word was spoken.

"Barrier."

Her hands would erupt in a blue light and for the faintest second it looked as if the tips of the girl's hair would become the same blue hue. A light blue veil would cover the front of the airship at a point. "EMBRACE FOR IMPACT!" The small transportation airship would crash into the bottom side of the airship, punching a hold in the metal that held it together. Not enough damage to sink the ship but it looked as if a cannon had been shot into it. It seemed that somehow, each member of their small crew had managed to survive the attack, however; the ship had definitely sailed for the last time. The impact had destroyed the front end of the ship, smashing all of the glass and even injuring some of the party. 

"We're here!" the girl said excitedly before exiting the tarnished airship. Holding out her hands in the direction of her team another blue light would cast. A small blueberry would appear in each of their hands. "Eat, you'll feel better." the pink-haired player would direct. Without hesitation, the Galteans would pop the small fruit into their mouth and their injuries would fade. 

Shouting along with the sounds of clinking metal would be heard as Imperial Soldiers began moving to the lower level which they had crash landed into. "Is there any chance we could talk this out with them? They're just following orders aren't they?"

@Alkor 

The white-haired woman turned to her with an expectant gaze as she spoke her question. The tone of voice had an uncanny hunger to it. "Nuh uh. Sorry, I don't fight. I can cook though." Holding out her hand, a small blue light would gather in her before a small blueberry would form. "I can also heal people like this. I don't do anything else." Just the idea of fighting made her a little nauseous. What if she hurt them?

The woman for some reason was unwilling to give her name up. This... bothered the pink haired player a bit. "Come on, wasn't it you that said names 'are truth'? Does that mean you're lying to me now? Not very nice." She watched as the unnamed woman grabbed another cookie and broke it in half. Did she just enjoy sharing or was she trying to be polite? It was hard to read the girl. She nothing like anyone she had experienced before. What was the way to act to break through? How could she even be friends with the girl if she was unwilling to give her name even?

Blue's questions would reveal nothing about the white-haired woman. She wasn't in the same group as Freyd and NIGHT, but it was definitely not a personality she had dealt with in the past. It was almost as if the woman was occupying and entirely different space than her. As it was, they weren't even on the same plane of existence. Crazy people were... well crazy. 

"I just feel like they're trying to have fun. Looks like a few are trying to prove themselves. Not sure bout' the whole 'resolve' thing. Who knows, maybe your eyes are better than mine or something." A little lost, the girl attempted at a compliment. The problem with new personality types, there was no prior information to fall back on. No clear path to earn their affection. 

"Lots of people like fruit, but I keep mine in desserts normally. Everyone tastes things differently, not everyone likes eating only desserts." A small giggle. "For some reason at least." Blue took the returned half of the cookie gingerly. Nobody have given any back in the past. Next, the girl would hand her an empty glass. 'Is she just sitting up here, pretending to drink things? She's completely lost it, hasn't she?' Blue's thoughts were kept internal. 

"Names are truth, and only one is the truth? So which is it?"

Blue frowned a second. "Well, Blueberry's the whole thing so I guess that one. Hey, what's your name anyway? You never told me, wouldn't be a fair trade of conversation if you don't tell me yours." The girl looked down, pondering into the empty glass. Maybe it was one of those tea leaf glasses that let you predict the future and the girl was predicting the outcome for betting purposes?

"Quite the excitable sort, or are we? Unusual, and obtuse. What do you see?"

That was her reply. A frown for a moment before Blue looked out to the fighters. Studying a few of them for a moment, Blue would turn back to the stranger. "I see a bunch of people hitting eachother with sticks. Lots of them look serious, but a few of them seem to be having fun." Blue watched as the girl drank from a small porcelain cup, saying nothing for a moment. 

"A name for a name, who are we really but a name?"

Cocking her head, Blue would quickly reply in a puzzled tone, "Does that mean I'm more of a person because people can call me multiple names?" It was a strange answer to an otherwise strange question. However, strange questions wasn't going to help Blue deduce this girl's personality too well.  "Are you a fruit?" Another one. "I like to think i'm enjoyable like one." Scooting slightly closer, Blue's electric blue eyes would steel the imposing stare of the woman. "Whatcha drinkin'? Think it would go well with a cookie? If so, I got one!" The girl would pull a pouch of them from one of her jackets many pockets. 

@Nisahime

A pout appeared on her face as her drink was snatched away, a swig taken by the larger man before it would be returned from her. Examining on how much was taken, she glanced over to his crate. Why didn't he just get his own? "They're not going to stop showing up. Apparently normal people don't eat sweets for every meal or something." A look was shot to Koga briefly. Another drink of the wine would bring a smile to her face. Shame it couldn't get them anywhere. Drunk people were far easier to make friends with, their guards almost dropped at that point. 

"Yogurt? It's called a parfait and you know it! Besides, I make other stuff. Mostly Cookies." Her eyes fell to the side. How had he known what she had made at all? She didn't think she had seen him around her shop. Perhaps it was while she was busy actually making things. 

As the topic shifted to her choice in weapon, the girl shrugged. "I don't fight so it get's used for actual cooking then actually hitting things." Opening her inventory, she brought out the pan. At first, it appears to be a normal frying pan, but on the click of a button the handle sprang far longer. "Sometimes I cook farther away for a challenge." Putting the weapon away, the girl would continue to listen to the conversation. She would only shrugged when cards was brought up for discussion. 

@Gaius @Koga

Blueberry: Level 31 
More stats to follow, at work and don't have access to them

Should there be a gathering the girl would be there with food to offer to the masses. When it came to large groups of people, her chances of meeting new people were much higher. Besides, maybe some of her old friends would introduce her to new ones. The bridge crossing over to the party hung over a still and beautiful pond. The colors of the leaves were unmatched here, adding to the serene setting. 

Sadly, the pink-haired player wasn't interested in any scenery. She was here for the people enjoying the scenery. Some cheering was heard along with the cracks of wood against wood nearby. Was this some kind of sports event? Blue had never really liked sports besides participating in various aquatic events. Finding the gathering of players, her eyes would instantly meet a lone woman's figure. A white-haired player who seemed quite involved with watching the event take place. From first judgement, Blue picked up that it seemed that the woman had isolated herself on purpose. Was she one of the shy types? Or was she just brash when it came to people? An introduction would have to be made to determine this.

Stepping up to the woman a smile would flash at her. Deciding on a more casual then upbeat approach, she would start off my sitting a few meters away from her. "I just got here, anything interesting happen yet? Wouldn't want to have missed it. I'm Blueberry by the way, but you can call me Blue or Berry if that suits you better." Electric blue eyes pierced the woman as Blue waited for her reaction. The first impression was a very important, fickle thing. It had to be done correctly. 

@Nisahime

A hand would suddenly begin to roughly brush her head and shake her entire body with. "DA DA DA DA!" Her mouth began making random noises in protest. She reached up to his arm and the man would remove it. Once pretty and neat pink hair was now left in shambles. Gaius tried to joke at her with her cooking abilities which would cause for Blue to laugh at him in a mocking tone. Gaius was a type of man that enjoyed being challenged. Challenge him she would. "If I came and my desserts at your shitty restaurant they'd sit there all day waiting for me to come back!" Closing her eyes and resting her hands on her hips, she would stand there confidently. That was at least until he would take hold her again, holding her next to him as she spoke. Her head was basically pressed into his chest. The vibration of his voice against her threatened to awaken things.

The two other girls that seemed to be crowding around were interested in the food Gaius had to make, causing the man to spout his self-claimed moniker. "Only reason you're the best chef is because I make desserts." Her words were met with a knuckle rubbing into her head. "OW OW OWOWOW!" she protested, pulling herself from him. "At least you made yourself useful and got something to drink all anyone brought was dessert. That was obviously my job!" Reaching to the crate, the pink-haired player would snatch an entire bottle to herself and began to drink the wine. It had a... pretty good taste. Normally at parties she had found herself drinking far more concentrated drinks but this at least tasted good. Besides, it wasn't like the drink was going to affect her in Aincrad anyway.  

Blue wiped a bead of sweat from her forehead. Ever since they had arrived, the pink-haired player had busied herself with healing the injured NPC's that had gotten into battle with the Imperial Guards. Having nursed several of the NPC's back to health, the girl was quickly becoming exhausted. Her attention returned back to the main situation when suddenly the strange boy they found in tower began to call out to them. Finishing up her current NPC, the girl would step back over into the group to hear their plan. 

It sounded to her as if their small group would be fighting back... from taxis? Little weird wasn't it? Her eyes drifted to the airships looming overhead. "Where's statue girl when we need her? Bet she could just chuck things at him or something dumb like that." With the battle looming overhead, there was going to be quite a bit of people to heal... would she even be able to keep up? Just from the people she had already done, she had become quite tired. Following @Alkor into his taxi, she would flash him a weary smile. "Wake me up when we get there? I'm gonna take a small nap." The NPC to her right would shoot her an astonished look at the girl. It would leave him questioning just who the people who were aiding them were. 

 Stepping out into the alley, she would close the door to Koga's shop and continue her way back to the center fountain. She remained quiet, keeping to herself on the trip. She had no intention of speaking with anyone there. She only wanted to return to her own shop. It was a mistake for her to have assumed Koga's personality on just their few short moments together. He was much different than he would first let on. The teleport crystal would see her returned to the eleventh floor.

Returned to her shop and moved the second floor, she would check Kura's room once again. Nothing. His music studio had been silent for several weeks now. She had to wonder if they boy had gone and gotten himself killed. Moving to her room, she would close the door behind her. The room would be silent for a moment... before she slammed a foot into the bedframe. "FUCK!" The girl would shout. She had messed up and she had to ensure that Koga didn't figure anything else out. If he ruined her.... No, she couldn't let that happen. Taking a breath, she would put on a smile in the mirror at her bedside table. A mirror that she had spent much time at. "You won this round Koga!~"

Gaius was far more casual with his response than she remembered him being. Cocking her head at his response, she would reply, "You... you do know that its only the 23rd right? Besides, Frying Pan Boi isn't random. Don't you have someone to hang out with? Maybe you've been drinking a bit too much of that wine." Blue had spent many nights in the past drinking herself, she had gotten to the point she held some semblance of control while intoxicated. Gaius did seem like the type to be that way as well. 

"How have you been doing, I haven't visited in a while!" Flashing a smile at him excitedly, she would get close to him and wave her hand out giving a grand gesture that would sweep over the room. "Maybe I could come make some desserts at your restaurant sometime, I've gotten really good at it!" She would frown for a moment, before adjusting her stature. "Actually, I'm going to do it regardless." Gaius was the kind that like straightforwardness. He wouldn't care for her question but he would respect a demand if she could recall correctly. 

Her group of people was coming and going, and with Astreya gone there wasn't anyone she was too familiar with. Luckily, that didn't bother her too much. This... Astrolynn? She seemed to be pretty invested in the game itself. Was she the gamer type? Or was she the kind that just wanted to be really helpful? It would take more observance. "Yeah, I just don't like hurting things, I'd just rather help out!" Her eyes fluttered to her surrounding area where she seen a familiar face walking in through the front door. If she hadn't seen him, she would have at least heard him. Almost jumping from the sudden joy, she would offer a pardoning wave and smile to @Astralin before bounding off suddenly. 

"GAIUS!" Tearing through the room, she would all but jump on the large man. "What are you doing here? Finally chase those people out of your kitchen?" Seeing the man brought her much joy. Out of everyone, Gaius was one of the few people she respected. Even if she had to basically beg to get in his kitchen... just to spend and obscene amount of time looking for things in there. 

"Ya know, you could try sharing it with other too. It's not like you have to share all of it with me,"

A sideways glance and the girl would reply, "I'm not going to make apple pie for everything. If I do that they will start making requests. Then I have to start making things I don't want to." Standing from her chair, she would nod, returning her bag of cookies into her pocket. The conversation with Koga was getting tiresome. He asked... too many questions. It was uncomfortable. "We were close." Her words held no cheer. Bringing her hood over her head, she would offer a smile and wave. 

"I'm going to head out now, still have a few more things to do. Better finish that cookie or no pie." Moving towards the door, she would look back for a moment and study Koga. He definitely was different than she had originally taken him. It seemed he was a quiet and easy person, but it went a little father than that. Koga was more dangerous than he would let on. She could tell he held a strong sense of loyalty. If she wasn't careful, that could cause her a problem. 

"Hey, I didn't say I wanted a whole pie." 

Blue frowned, her expression revealing exasperation. "So you want me to make a single slice? You get all or nothing!" This man didn't understand friendship or sweets? Koga and her were just completely different types of people. That was okay, but there wasn't anyway she would change the way she acted around him. It annoyed her though, she had really wanted information on how she could have befriended that 'NIGHT' person. That could have helped unlock many avenue's for her and even find a way to wrap Freyd in there as well. Well, there would be other opportunities. Surely, Koga wasn't the only one she had spoken to who was friends with this girl. 

"So why do you like sweets so much?"

Blueberry seemed to almost short-circuit for a moment. Who didn't like sweets? This wasn't something she had been asked before. "I guess because they make me happy." Her eyes took themselves off of Koga and plastered to the floor. "My grandma used to make me a lot of sweets and she liked blueberries a lot. She really liked me because I'm the only one in the family that inherited her eyes. It skipped two generations and both of my siblings." Unconsciously, Blue would twirl her hair around a finger. "So yeah, I like dessert. I can eat as much as I want here without worrying about gaining weight." 

Koga didn't take Blue's hint to change the subject. Trying to put them in the same shoes? What was that supposed to even accomplish. They weren't the same person at all, why would it make any sense for her to fail as he had? Her teeth began to grit together as she began to grit her teeth. What was wrong with her wanting to be friends with everyone? 

 "But with me, do me the courtesy of not lying to my face."

Taking a breath, Blue made no hesitation in answering. "Of course!" 

She watched him put down his cookie and the smile she had given him faded. Of course, not for the reason the man would most likely assume. "You want a whole Apple Pie, but you can't even finish some cookies? Weak." There was a hint of a joke at the tip of her words. Though, in her mind she only could focus on what he had called her. A liar. Was it really lying? No matter how she acted it was still her. Who was he calling a liar? Concealing her feelings, she would continue to speak to the boy as normal. "Maybe I can try to bring you some apple pie next time I stop by here." Her eyes fell onto the uneated cookie. "You better eat it all." 

Koga continued to slowly infuriate Blue. Cracks were forming, what would escape? A foot would stamp the ground, the sound echoing through the forge like the beating of steel. "You don't know that! I've been doing it forever and I'll keep doing it! What do you even know, you only talk to people because your sister makes you!" Her voice had raised almost to the point of yelling at the man. Beginning to breath heavier, her eyes would begin to sound warning out for the boy. He was pushing this way too far. Looking down, she would notice that she was no longer sitting on the chair. Taking a breath, the pink-haired girl would close her eyes. For some unknown reason, a stinging pain burned her neck. As she began to calm down, the pain would cease. 

"I... I'm sorry. I don't really want to talk about this anymore. I'll find some other way anyway, I always have." Her eyes adverted and once again she would attempt to avert the conversation. "It was... apple pie you liked? Maybe I can try to make that a time or two. Don't complain if it isn't as good though." Pulling her pink hair, she would let it fall over to cover her exposed skin. 

It looked like Koga was having trouble understanding the basics of making friends. He kept stubbornly kept arguing his point. "You just explained it to yourself. You hammered the ingot into the sword because the sword wouldn't do the job." Beginning to swing her feet in her chair, she would take another bite of dessert. Quietly, the girl would nibble on her food. "What's the problem? I just wanna make friends. I would be happier if I could be friends with everyone." It was a stubborn trait of hers, foolish, and perhaps even toxic but it was plain at face value. 

"I don't want to hurt anyone, that's why all I can do is heal." She omitted the part where Freyd didn't seem to like that idea, but she didn't know of a way she could fight without hurting anything. She knew that the monsters weren't real, but what if they could feel some sort of pain? None of them would know. If she didn't heal, how would she be able to save her friends if they needed it? What if she lost one of them? "I also like baking, its pretty fun. I started doing it because I liked eating but cooking is alright. Do you like being a blacksmith dude? Are you a blacksmith cause' you think its fun?"
