Courtyard (South)

[Nohea-Chan]

"Well..."

Ikaika closed his eyes for a moment...

"She has short pink hair...and soft pink eyes...and her skin is kinda tan..."

Ikaika opened his eyes and then looked to Taqune,

"Is that good enough to refresh your memory?" Ikaika asked, unsure if it was a good enough description because it was so short.

Hopefully it would refresh Taqune's memory. If not, it was ok...Ikaika would find Nohea eventually. Maybe he would go look for one of her friends, like Sakura Ai. He hadn't seen Sakura in a while.  

[Outlaw_elf]

Taqune thought for a moment,"I think I did meet her one day when she was with Sakura Ai, if im not mistaken." Taqune put a finger to his mouth thinking again,"but i don't know where she went i can help you look for her if you want."Taqune gave a smile to Ikaika and stood up.  

[Nohea-Chan]

Ikaika's expression brightened up right away.

"Yeah!! If its not too much trouble. Could you?!" Ikaika asked, smileing up at Taqune.

Ikaika stood up and brushed some grass off his pants and picked a leaf off of his silvery white hair.

Then all of a sudden Ikaika's stomach growled very loudly.

Ikaika looked down at his stomach, and then looked up, putting a hand on his stomach and a hand behind his head. He smiled and laughed,

"Ehehe, I guess, I'm kinda hungry...."

It was true, Ikaika hadn't eaten a meal for two whole days, he had only found water. Ikaika thought a moment.

Where could we get some food...I don't have any money...but maybe we could steal some....no but that would be wrong....

Ikaika looked up to Taqune,

"D'you know anywhere we could get some, like, free food?" Ikaika said scratching the back of his head and smileing an ackward smile.

((Ikaika needs to go to the Potluck Event to meet Nohea and Sakura whee maybe Taqune could mention the potluck? sweatdrop ))  

[Outlaw_elf]

Taqune smiled,"Well there is a potluck going on maybe you can find her and get your meal at the same time but I think your going to have to bring something." Taqune thought for a moment,"I'll make something and bring it."Taqune went to his room then and began to cook,what he calls catnip xd .  

[Nohea-Chan]

Ikaika frowned,

"What am I gunna bring?" Ikaika said, almost to himself.

Ikaika looked around at the courtyard. There were alot of different plants there.

Maybe I could make some kind of garden salad or somthing?

Ikaika's grandfather had taught him about plants when he was young, and how no matter where you were you could find some kind of edible plants.

Ikaika quickly gathered up some edible plants form around the courtyard.

Hmmm....

Ikaika walked over to where Taqune was,

"Do you have a bowl I could borrow?" Ikaika asked, holding all the plants in his arms.  

[Outlaw_elf]

Taqune smiled,"I do have a bowl in my room that you can use and some other things as well to make your what appears to be a salad. Lets go so we can make the stuff and get to the potluck and try and find your friend."Taqune smiled and began to walk to his room.  

[Nohea-Chan]

Ikaika followed Taqune into his room, carrying all the plants. Ikaika looked around and spotted a good sized red bowl that was perfect for all the stuff he had collected.

"I'll just use this one, is that all right with you Taqune?" Ikaika asked.

Not really waiting for an answer, Ikaika placed the salad things in the bowl and began tossing the salad in the bowl.

Hmm...now...

Ikaika looked around, and then he turned to Taqune.

"Would you happen to have some salt, or some salad dressing?" Ikaika asked

Any type of salad dressing would do, just as long as it was something. Even salt or some kind of flavoring would help. The salad didn't really matter to Ikaika, all that mattered was getting to the potluck. Taqune was right, maybe he could kill 2 birds with one stone. He would fill his stomach, and he would look for Nohea.  

[Outlaw_elf]

Taqune had put his dish in the freezer to let them harden he wasn't about to say what they were but he figured people would like them. Yes I do have some red wine vinager in the fridge and some salt and pepper he got them out the vinager was almost gone,"just leave the stuff on the table i'll clean up later."Taqune was waiting for Ikaika to finish his dish should be ready by then.  

[Nohea-Chan]

Ikaika took the pepper, salt, and whatever was left of the vinegar and mixed it together, making somthing like a vinegarette.
He then poured it all over the salad and then tossed the salad around a bit more to mix it all up.

"Alright, I'm ready to go I think, is your dish finished?" Ikaika asked after covering the bowl with some kind of paper towel.

Ikaika was sort of anxious to get to the potluck. He was sure that Nohea would be there, because he knew she liked parties and that she liked hanging out with friends. But on top of that, his stomach was in a stitch from not eating a whole meal in 2 days.

((I guess you can post in the potluck first sweatdrop because Nohea is already in there. 3nodding ))  

[Outlaw_elf]

Taqune checked the fridge once more and smiled,"yep the catnip is ready." Taqune took out the dish and covered it in a bowl. He then headed towards the potluck sure that Ikaika was going to follow him.  

[Celestial Lullaby]

((Taqune, could you please lengthen your posts? It would be nice. Thank you.))  

[Nohea-Chan]

Ikaika grabbed the red bowl that held the salad he had prepared. He followed Taqune as they left Taqune's room and headed out for the potluck.

I hope I can find Nohea there... Ikaika thought with a look of eagerness upon his face

"I know it feels so good to be home again." Lily was walking with Darius through the couryard now, admiring everything about Ria. It was so beautiful compared to some of the places she had encountered since she had left on her mission with Darius. She knew Darius was happy to be back at Ria too and she was trying to decide where they would go next.....the Ancient Forest.....or the Hot Springs? If they wanted to be alone they'd have a better shot of that in the forest, but for relaxing and such most times the Hot Springs was the place to be.  

[TaiBaiWong]

Darius sighed and smiled.

"I-I think...I think we should go to the hot springs. All that work on the house had made everything ache and the hot springs will be warm and relaxing. I mean. We can last the crowds can't we?"

He laughed nervously, he remembered the situation that happened last time. To be fair it wasn't the best one. That's where the whole Lily/Jessi thing started, but then again Joy helped it out last time with that timley use of mistletoe.  

[shining_lights]

Lily smiled. The hot springs sounded good to her right now.

"Yes let's go." She too was wary of the bad times that had happened at the Hot Springs, what with Paul and his gang catching Lily and Darius off guard, and then there was the time with Jessi, Lily disliked reliving that one, although Joy she found out was a very nice person, comming in to save the day at just the right moment.
