Who: Rakath, Save, anyone in Disney Castle
What: Random interactions.
Where: Save is on the Gungir, Rakath is outside of it.

Don't react till I tag both openings. Rakath will have one. Save her own.

The two are separated from each other, but one might interrupt the other if wished.

Well, of course Rak would notice her. That was the way the universe worked. Ren sighed to herself and turned to answer him, but his expression caught her by surprise. She hadn't seen him look like that in a long, long time. It was nostalgic, to say the least. "Something like that," she admitted. "They told me to get out and not come back until I've rested enough for the words to stop resembling ancient Greek chicken scratch."

She sat across from Rak, resting an arm on her knee. "So how long have you been sitting out here?" she asked curiously.

"Why not just get competent in reading ancient Greek scratch?" Seemed like a perfectly reasonable thing to say. Although it probably was bad for her to mindlessly research anything and everything in the library without some idea of where to go. Also if she found the answer and died of starvation that'd kinda suck all around.

His hand kept moving through the cycle of elemental Auras he knew, "Dunno, I usually stop after an hour or so, and I wasn't near stopping yet." While he did pay attention to his surroundings, and his energies, and a little bit of his mind focused on Save's current location if he could. At least who went near the ship. Time was not a thing he minded during his training, counter-effective to training. "Keeping my spirit sharp is one of the best ways to pass the time. ...Okay, my Pokemon are all Level 100. That's really why I do this now."

Ren chuckled tiredly at Rak's suggestion. "Unfortunately, I've got too much on my plate as it is for the time being," she sighed. "Maybe once things calm down a little, I'll give it a try," she said with a smile so he'd know she was joking, too. And there wasn't any need to worry about her working until she starved to death, since she could take care of herself, really.

...Granola bars and bottled water totally counted, right?

Her laugh turned more genuine, or at least less lifeless, when Rak mentioned Pokemon. "Your priorities are top-notch as always," she teased, not quite realizing how easy it was to interpret that statement the wrong way, given their current relationship. She was exhausted, and her mind was honestly on trying to unwind a little, not pick a fight.

Rakath snapped his fingers, a glowing hand creating a small ripple of wind in the air with the snap, "My priorities are flawless. You never know when we find out that gummispace is bigger than just Disney and we find a world of Pokemon. Then where will you be figuring out what magic to use to fight off a Scizor." He sounded almost serious... except for the fact that most of the time he sounded serious and that can't be used as examples of when he was serious.

The glow on Rakath's hand changed to white and he moved into a one hand handstand and kept on as if that didn't do much. "You'd be amazed how much more challenging Pokemon battles are when all your blood is rushing into your skull. Really." He grinned, his other hand moving as if he had a stylus in it and a DS below him.

"So you got evicted from the walls of books to find food and sleep, right? We have food. Gungir's galley is kinda big." Okay, the galley was designed for gala dinners. But that was a minor detail, considering it was stocked like a college dorm. Also he was still upsidedown.

"That's easy," Ren replied, tucking some hair that had been blown free by Rak's Aura behind her ears. "Bug plus Steel equals kill it with Fire." She might not have had much time lately to keep up with her copy of Platinum, but she at least remembered that much.

She shook her head and smirked. "Showoff. How long can you stay like that, anyway?"

At least Ren's stomach decided to maintain some level of her dignity by not growling at that moment. "Sounds tempting," she admitted. And it wasn't like Rak had any reason to conk her on the head and kidnap her the moment she was on board either, right? She hadn't done anything worth incurring anyone's ire in particular... well, maybe her parents, but she doubted that they'd be willing to pay a bounty hunter just to bring her home, so she was pretty sure she was safe in that regard.

"To be fair its easy, but you have to remember it resists most of the usual things to use against a bug or steal. No rocks, no birds, no fighting, etc etc," Rakath said with that know-it-all tone in his voice, he doesn't get it too often. Mostly things that nobody cares about... like Pokemon.

"The handstand? As long as I can keep my aura going," if she asked how long that was he wouldn't give a straight answer, way more info then he needed to share with anyone. "Unlike Duncan or his star student I'm not strong enough without my tricks to really do what he does without my Aura in full view. I'm just glad I'm good at it."

Rakath spun so he could look at her, of course he was looking upsidedown, so it was a little weird. "What? Worried I'll do something evil?" He tilted his head to the side, which loses effect upsidedown, "Universe in danger, under no contracts, not evil. Worry about that after the universe is saved." He pushed off the ground with a slight bit of force and landed on his feet in a low crouch, he was still showing off, and grinning.

"So basically, once the light show starts going out, both you and your enemies know you're in trouble," Ren noted, tilting her head slightly. "Unless you have a few more tricks up your sleeve, which I'm sure you would."

She sighed and smiled, giving in. "All right, fair enough. So what would I owe you for this favor?" she asked. To use the old saying, there was no such thing as a free lunch, and this was still Rak she was dealing with.
