Turn of the Tables (Jay/Cora/Open)

[Lady Leaf]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Kero stood in front of the large doors of the large castle, his pale brown eyes gazing up as he waited for someone to answer. He had already knocked on it. Charizard had been left down by the gates as he remembered Cora claimed the Duke didn’t fancy fire types. This was something Kero could respect as he was certain the feeling was similar to the way Kero felt about the Bug types. Hopefully his Charizard wouldn’t get into any trouble, though most likely he would be fine. He’d probably find a spot to sun bath until Kero and Alvaro returned. The surrounding area of the castle was rather pretty and so was the castle it’s self. Yet one thing confused him. The castle was pretty, the forest around it was pretty, but the front yard looked like someone took a hurricane through it. It kind of made him wonder if they were redoing the whole thing or something… “I hope we didn’t come at a bad time.” Kero stated as he waited, his body looking rather stiff. He was nervous as hell and slightly wished he had of combed his hair or something. He truly was worried that Felis wouldn’t like him and then all of his hard work would be for nothing. It could all just crash to the ground right then and there. [/scrolly] [bg=brown]

Her hair also back in a ponytail. In her arms she held Treecko, Cora always had to have a Pokemon out with her. Seeing as they where going to see Feils, she thought Treecko would be the best to have out. She looked over at Kero and saw how tense he was and shook her head at his comment. " Calm down Kero, Feils wont bite your head off or anything. He is a nice guy, really. Wont do ya any good to get your self all worked up." Cora said trying to calm him down not knowing if it was going to work or not. " Treecko tree." Treecko laughed a little, Cora though thumped the little grass type on the head to tell him to stop. Tree! Cko!" Treecko complained and started to pout. Though Cora just smiled and rolled her eyes. " I hope Feils wont be to busy... If he is I wont ask today.." Cora thought as she looked at the large door and waited for someone to open it. [/scrolly]

Meanwhile, Alvaro was slightly swaying from side to side next to Kero as he waited. The ride on Zane had not been the best to say the very least of it. The rather quirky Charizard had spun quite a bit and nearly threw him off more than once. That, combined with the air pressure at the altitude that the three had flown on, had left quite a weird buzz in the back of the green haired man's head Now, with his feet on the ground and Zane's pokeball filled with his contents in his pocket, Alvaro Gean was trying to straighten out his rather weak feeling. However, it was staying with him and making him slightly sick. "Ah it'll be alright," he hummed rather quietly more to himself than to either Kero or Cora.

Meanwhile, finally sounds of light feet could be heard from behind the door, and in another moment the door slowly began to open. Rather than a butler, Felis, or Rosa even, a rather stern faced Roserade was now leering at the three from his place at the door. "Rose?" Rosie asked rather sharply waiting for some sort of explanation. The butlers had been given the day off, and Felis seemed busier than usual. Therefore, Rosie had taken it upon himself to do most of the general chores including answer the door.

[Lady Leaf]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Kero sucked in a deep breath as Cora told him to relax. If she was claiming Felis was a nice guy than it had to be true but… try as he might he just couldn’t relax. “Ok…” was his reply to her as he let out his breath and attempted to loosen his muscles, though it didn’t work. Alvaro had said something but Kero had only heard parts of it as his words were a tad soft. When the door to the castle opened, Kero found himself holding his breath again, expecting to see someone behind the door. Yet… there was on one there? Kero blinked a moment knowing that couldn’t be right when finally his eyes caught movement down below. Slowly he looked down, noticing the small grass type. Blinking a couple times and actually relaxing finally, Kero decided he might as well introduce himself to the pokemon. “Um… Hello. I’m Kero Blackthorn, a noble from the South. Felis Rossie requested for my assistance in this letter,” Kero both introduced himself and explained why he was there. His hand had reached into his pocket as he pulled out the letter from Felis and held it down for Rosie to see. “He required some suggestions on two criminals he recently acquired.” [/scrolly] [bg=brown]

[Baroness Charmissey]

[atrb=style,background-image:url(http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv181/SojiRem/coraposttable2.png);][atrb=width, 507][atrb=height, 375][atrb=style,border:0 teal none,b,Table][scrolly:h(250),w(282),sy,as(padding:4px 0px 5px;margin-top:113px;margin-left:227px;color:#4e1614;)] Cora looked at Kero and Alvaro, both seemed uneasy. Alvaro more so, looked like we was air sick thanks to his Charizard. Cora now wished she would have offered him a ride, her Charizard would not have minded. Oh well to late now, though she did hope that Alvaro would be ok. Cora then took a few minutes to look at the yard around them. It looked like a war zone, she hoped Feils and little Rosa where alright. And if they where hurt, well she would find the person who did this and make them pay. She did not know how, but she would. A few minutes later the door opened and Cora smiled hoping to see Feils or Rosa. But to her disappoint it was Rosie!! The mean little Roserade that did not let her in when she first came to the castle. Cora did the best she could to keep a smile on her face. Though she still had sore feelings for the grass type. If it did not let her in this time.. She... She would go in anyway, rather the grass Pokemon liked it or not. She could always have Treecko get past him again to. Rosa and Feils know Treecko so they would know she was here. " Hello, Rosie, Its nice to see you again. I'm also here to see Feils, I came here with Kero and Alvaro." Cora said trying her best to keep her voice neutral. [/scrolly]

[Jay]

Alvaro slowly stopped swaying though he seemed to somehow be moving regardless. His eyes focused down on Rosie almost instinctively when the door had opened, possibly because he had been holding no expectations earlier. "Ah, a Roserade," he murmured as he looked down at the grass type.

Rosie, meanwhile, took in the three people rather calmly but wore his stern-faced expression regardless. As the first man introduced himself, Rosie simply nodded, took the letter, scanned over the writing, before stopping as Cora spoke. Upon looking up again, Rosie's eyes settled on the woman. Ffff that female from before with the Charizard. Oh just lovely! Especially after all the Arceus damn work he did on the lawn that still wasn't up to par with his standards! -x- Ugh if he had to deal with fire he SWORE he was going to just Poison Jab all three of the-.....Realizing Alvaro hadn't said much aside from his species, Rosie looked at the man and turned his head to one side. Cora had said... Alvaro. Hadn't that-....Shaking his head, Rosie just stared and crossed his arms. "Rade?" he asked looking at Alvaro.

Meanwhile, Alvaro blinked slowly realizing he was being addressed. "Alvaro Gean," he mused a bit half bowing at the Roserade who seemed to stand taller still for whatever reason. "But really now, he should have been expecting us," Alvaro chimed almost with a hint of sarcasm. Rosie just stared and sighed before making a 'wait' motion, closing the door, and heading off to find Felis.

Ah yes, poor Felis was actually working rather hard at the moment filing a mass of papers, writing a few letters, and muttering to himself all the while as he did so. He was slowly but surely becoming more skilled at handling the situations of the day to day needs even if he was still extremely unsure of himself when it came to other things. However, when Rosie pushed open the door of his study, Felis stopped and turned his head. "M?" Felis asked before Rosie made a 'come on you idiot' motion causing Feliciano to sigh and rise.

Finally the door opened itself to everyone on the outside, and a rather sleepy and mildly messy Feliciano made himself present. "Ah good morning," he smiled before suddenly zeroing in on Cora and pepping up a good deal. "Cora dearest~!" the blond haired man beamed lightly. "What brings you here~?" he asked before fishing out a Rose from somewhere up his sleeve and holding it out to Cora. However, Felis was far from done as his eyes then slid to Kero and Alvaro. "Ah and who are you~" he mused pulling out yet another set of flowers and extending them to both Kero and Alvaro.

[Lady Leaf]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Kero found himself stiff the entire time the Roserade was there. His eyes kept drifting from the pokemon to the human he was speaking to, back to the pokemon until finally Rosie left. Letting out a long breath of air, and certainly not feeling any more relaxed about this entire thing, Kero found himself scooting a tad closer to Alvaro. His right hand came down and very lightly he reached out to wrap his pinkie finger around Alvaro’s for comfort. Just that tiny bit of connection would make Kero feel better. “I guess that was one of Felis’s other pokemon, hu?” Kero asked as they waited in attempt to break any silence there may have been. Silence was a tad unnerving and he didn’t want anything else to stress himself or them out anymore as it was. When the door finally opened again, Kero was shocked to see rather tired looking, blond haired man before them. Kero resorted to simply blinking a couple times as the man spoke to Cora, pulling out a flower while doing so. He had a good feeling this was the Duke, though he was far from what Kero had been expecting. Aside from the tired look, he was actually kind of cute. Though nothing compared to his Alvaro. “K-Kero Blackthorn, sir.” Kero quickly bowed his head when he addressed, before his pale eyes slowly drifted to the flower presented to him. With a week smile and a tad bit of confusion, Kero let go of Alvaro and reached out for the flower. It was then that he realized he had stuttered his first word! Stupid, stupid, stupid. [/scrolly] [bg=brown]

[atrb=style,background-image:url(http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv181/SojiRem/coraposttable2.png);][atrb=width, 507][atrb=height, 375][atrb=style,border:0 teal none,b,Table][scrolly:h(250),w(282),sy,as(padding:4px 0px 5px;margin-top:113px;margin-left:227px;color:#4e1614;)] Cora just stood there smiling, trying to hide her sore feelings for Rosie. But when he left to go get someone Cora relaxed and gave a relived sigh. Good, Rosie was going to be nice this time. When Kero asked if that was one of Felis's Pokemon she nodded and said, " Yes, that was one of Felis's Pokemon." Cora was not going to say what happened though when they first met. Kero and Alvaro did not need to know about that. After a few minutes Felis him self came to the door, Cora smiled and looked at her cousin. Though seeing as he looked tired her expression became full of worry. Though when Felis greeted her and handed her a rose she smiled and took it. When Felis asked what brings her here she opened her mouth to say something but thought better of it and looked over at Kero. " What I came for can wait, I believe it was Kero you called for. I just happened to be with him when he got your letter." Cora said and looked back at Felis with a smile. Treecko looked at Felis, smiled and waved at him. " Treecko!" the small grass Pokemon said in greeting. [/scrolly]

[Jay]

Alvaro brushed his cheek a bit watching Rosie disappear, and as he found the pinkie finger in his own, the green haired man's eye slid sideways, and he found himself smiling a bit. "He seemed tense," was finally the comment that was made. Meanwhile, when Feliciano had come out, Alvaro found himself blinking a little. Well he hadn't been expecting anything really, yet the rather almost -stressed maybe?- looking man before him didn't seem to fit the bill. Eh, whatever~

Taking the flower and looking sideways at Kero, Alvaro brought said flower to his nose and took a whiff. Ah, not bad at all really. "Alvaro," he murmured a bit when the name was asked. After a moment, a purple eye slid sideways to regard the Duke again. Hm? Hadn't he been one of ... no possibly his father had been... a client of Undertaker's? Well of course everyone was a client in the end considering, yet Alvaro couldn't quite pinpoint why he looked so familiar. Maybe... a grandfather had passed or something...? Or possibly a pokemon even? Eh, death was death, really. "Gean," he finally finished as though more of an after thought rather than anything else.

Meanwhile, Felis seemed to smile a bit and nodded his head slowly at Cora. "Oh! I see," he grinned a moment before looking off towards Kero. "Well now, it's quite nice to meet you Kero of the South and... Alvaro," Felis grinned. "I, as you probably guessed, am Feliciano Rossi... Though I must say you caught me a bit off guard, really. I didn't expect you to come so quickly." he sighed gingerly. "I wouldn't have come to the door like this, hahahah," he forced a bit of a laugh and made a gesture to his white blouse-type shirt only partially buttoned with two or three buttons missing at the bottom and two at the top and black pants. Indeed, it was casual wear at it's peak of style. Though he was tired and a bit frustrated here and there, Felis did put on a good show of lightness.

"But anyways, why don't you all come inside?" he hummed a bit making a hand gesture before holding the door open for them all. "My butlers were given the day off today," the blond hummed giving the air an excuse as to why he was doing such work himself despite the fact that he didn't mind it in the least. Once everyone had come inwards, he then directed the group off to the meeting room of sorts. However, right before he was about to turn down that particular hallway, Felis changed directions and ended up leading the party to the sun room, a glass room of sorts at the very back. Finally coming to the room, Felis pulled the door open and simply waited for everyone to enter.

Three walls, and the ceiling of the room were nothing but glass, and a variety of different plants seemed to seep their way into gaps and corners. A good few book shelves, and a desk far off could be seen. Along with that, a few lounge chairs could be seen. It was these chairs that Felis directed everyone to.

[Lady Leaf]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] They had caught him off guard? Oh man, maybe they were too hasty! He was laughing but perhaps inside he was secretly wanting to rip them apart for interrupting him! He was going to become the count knowing for disrupting the dukes! None would ever want him around and…. Ok he was over exaggerating a lot but even as he reminded himself of this his body was still stiff as a board. “We appologize. If we had of known it was a bad time we could have come by later.” Kero apologized, with a rather awkward, nervous smile. He knew he was being silly being so worked up still, but he couldn’t help it. He truly did want to impress the man, if not for himself, but his family as well. When Felis invited them in, Kero found himself taking hold of Alvaro’s hand, unaware that he had even done so, before stepping inside. His eyes flickered around as he walked, getting a fell of the place as he walked. It was then that his mind registered that Felis had claimed he had given his butlers a day off. It had caused Kero to chuckle a bit to himself as he thought about Alfred, “I gave my butler a day off once and then he forbid me from doing it again. He claimed it was too much work and too stressful having days off.” Alfred was by far a man Kero would never figure out but he was grateful he had him. When they entered the sun room, Kero felt an over whelming sense of warmth and comfort. It was if the room it’s self was meant to ease any stress one had. Kero even let out a small breath if air he had not known he was holding before heading towards the seats Felis lead them to and sitting down. Somewhere along the way he had let go of Alvaro’s hand again. “It would be so cool to have a place like this back home,” He commented, more to Alvaro than anyone else, “I think it would warm up too much though.” His eyes then flickered around, looking over to Cora and smiling a bit. [/scrolly] [bg=brown]

[Baroness Charmissey]

[atrb=style,background-image:url(http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv181/SojiRem/coraposttable2.png);][atrb=width, 507][atrb=height, 375][atrb=style,border:0 teal none,b,Table][scrolly:h(250),w(282),sy,as(padding:4px 0px 5px;margin-top:113px;margin-left:227px;color:#4e1614;)] Cora just smiled and nodded as Felis spoke, she waited as he spoke to Kero and Alvaro. Though even though Felis was trying to act light and happy, Cora could tell he was stressed. In her mind she was starting to think it was not a good idea to ask Felis to help her act more like a noble.. He seemed to have a lot on his plate already.. But she really could use his help, ugh she felt torn now.. Well she could still ask after the business between Kero and Felis was over.. But even then would it be ok to ask? Would Felis be willing to help? He may be nice but he did not have to take time out of his day to help her after all. Cora then shook her head trying to ignore those thoughts that where now popping up in her head. When Felis started to lead them all into the castle Cora started to follow and started to hug Treecko a little to tightly. " Treecko!!" The little grass Pokemon complained. Cora blinked and loosened her hold. Treecko tree.." he breathed. Cora smiled sheepishly and petted Treecko,Cora then noticed that Felis was going to go down one hall way but changed his mind and went another way. Thinking nothing of it she just followed Feils till they came to the glass room. Cora looked around and though the room the pretty with all the plants that could be seen. When Felis directed them to the lounge chairs Cora sat off to the side so Kero and Alvaro could be the main focus. Seeing as Felis did call them here, just by luck she was with them when they got the letter. At Kero's comment about the room, Cora looked at him and saw that he smiled at her. Cora smiled back of course but said nothing and looked at Felis again waiting for the business between Kero and Felis to start. It was over Cora would ask if Felis if he could help her. [/scrolly]

[Jay]

At the apology of sorts, Felis had simply made a quiet hum sound smiling and shaking his head as though dismissing it. Though he was far form the best at reading people, Felis found himself thinking Kero was a tad stressed. Hm... maybe just a bad ride there or something? Possibly. The difference in rank would never come to his mind, at the end of it all. At Treecko's sounds, Felis's eyes had moved backwards to stare for a few seconds. "Ah Cora, you'll have to tell me about how your travels have been going in a bit," the blond haired man smiled a moment before looking forwards again and continuing to walk.

Alvaro, meanwhile, had simply found his eyes bouncing around as he looked at the castle they walked through. Well wasn't this just a splendid piece of architecture? It was only when they walked a quarter of the way that the green haired man even registered that Kero had taken his hand. Blinking, he simply continued to hold it. Ah come now Kero don't worry.... Alvaro wanted to say these words, yet at the moment he found himself oddly quiet.

At the comment on Kero's butler, Feliciano looked back and chuckled a bit to himself. "My butlers are something of children at times," he laughed thinking of he boys. Alvaro blinked. Wut. Children ._. He'd missed something... Ah well~ As they moved and sat down, Alvaro quite literally snuggled into the seat he was sitting in. Ah this was just comfy, heh. "It is rather nice," the green haired man hummed back at Kero.

Felis set down last and seemed to lean over his knees slightly. He was almost too tall for the chair, to be honest. It was meant more for women and children such as Rosa, but the chairs themselves were rather comfortable. "Ah yes, matters matters," Felis hummed a moment before finally leaning back in his chair and addressing Kero at the moment. "As my letter said, I came across someone on your wanted list." Felis paused a moment unsure of how he wanted to continue. "And as a friend of his tried to, as I can only assume, free him, the castle was attacked in the process. But anyways, now with peace restored, I honestly don't know what I want to do with them." Something of a pained laugh rippled into the air from Felis. He'd told Miguel he would hang them... yet after that, his spine had twitched and broken down into a fit of worries over death. It... was just hard to act, really....

[Lady Leaf]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Childish butlers? That made Kero wonder exactly how old they were. Kero didn’t really remember very well, but Alfred had always seemed old in Kero’s mind even when he was a young boy. Though his father had once told him that Alfred had began serving the family when he was only around fifteen years old. Of course that was long before Kero had even been born. Kero found himself sitting up a bit straighter as Felis began to talk about the reason he had been asked to come to the castle. A man who had been on his wanted list and Felis wanted… advice on what to do with them. “Umm, well,” Kero thought for a moment, before looking straight at Alvaro, “I would asume it would depend on who you caught and what crimes they have committed. If you know his name, or can give me a face, I should be able to tell you exactly what crimes they have been convicted for. As for the other man… there is a chance he may be in my records but with smaller crimes or less crimes reported. Though attempted jail break and an attack on duke’s castle is fairly high offence as it is.” Kero replied hesitating if he should go into more detail or not. After a small pause he decided to continue. “Era has been stat of depression for some time now, even before we lost our king and queen. It’s forced many people into poverty, either because they are unable to get proper education, their jobs aren’t paying enough or they just simply cant find a job no matter how much they search. It’s caused them to steal, lie, cheat and in some occasions even murder. The people I’ve posted on the wall’s of our cities are men and women who have been reported for murder or unbelievably high amounts of theft. I personally feel that no struggle in life should force someone to commit murder and those who have undoubtly committed such an act should be punished as equally as those lives they took. While I feel that those who crimes have not exceeded over theft perhaps don’t deserve to hang.” Kero looked to the ground for a moment, pausing as tried to think of how to explain what he meant. His eyes then drifted back up again and he sucked in a breath of air, “In some places even the murderers aren’t punished with death. You could sentence them to jail time, length depending on the seriousness of their crimes. Perhaps even sentence them to community service until they have paid off what they stole or broke. Of course these are just a few possibilities and in the end it’s completely up to you and what sort of message you want to send to past, current and even criminals.” Well, that had been a lot longer than he had meant it to be. He couldn’t help it though. He had been thinking about it since the day he decided to start the project in the first place. [/scrolly] [bg=brown]

[atrb=style,background-image:url(http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv181/SojiRem/coraposttable2.png);][atrb=width, 507][atrb=height, 375][atrb=style,border:0 teal none,b,Table][scrolly:h(250),w(282),sy,as(padding:4px 0px 5px;margin-top:113px;margin-left:227px;color:#4e1614;)] Cora sat there not saying a word as Kero spoke, in fact she felt a little uneasy and shifted in her set. This was heavy duty stuff they where talking about and she was starting to think she should not be in the room while Kero and Felis talked. But it would be rude just to get up and walk out. So Cora would just sit here till they where done or they spoke to her. Though as Kero spoke, Cora was getting more and more respect for him. He really did seem to care about commoners, that made her smile as she petted Treecko who was enjoying that and starting to fall asleep in her lap. Cora blinked when Kero said something about schooling, she then looked away with a sheepish smile, she was home schooled by her Mother before leaving to become a pokemon trainer.. She was not going to tell Kero that though. Seeing as he though schooling was importent. Heh, she would go back some day. Right now she wanted to see the world and very kind of pokemon. [/scrolly]

OOC Yuck short. >> lol

[Jay]

Feliciano managed to keep his face something a little less than neutral as Kero spoke. Mentally sighing, he fought to keep a smile on his face as well. "If you'll wait a moment, I'll get the picture from your wanted listings, and you'll have a face and a name," he stated before rising and walking out of the room for a moment.

Meanwhile, Alvaro was quiet and looked towards Kero before offering a grin of sorts. "Well weren't you just informative," he chuckled to himself though Alvaro truly was impressed by what had been said.

A minute or so passed before Felis came back into the room folding down a bit of the wanted poster before holding it out to Kero. Sure enough, the man Felis had known as "Andrew" had his face there with the name Sen under it. Sitting back down, Felis fought the urge to sigh. He'd keep control of this. "Can you tell me right off what he has done?" he asked.

[Lady Leaf]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Kero nodded as Felis claimed he would go and get the picture of the man had caught. When was gone, Kero found himself letting out a deep breath before looking over at Alvaro, beaming with a grin. “I guess I really do read too much,” He replied to green haired man, chuckling a bit before adding, “Though a lot of I’ve been learning traveling with you. I love you.” His travels truly were teaching him what made a criminal and why man did what they did. A few years ago if someone asked Kero what to do with one of them he would replied with a simple, ‘Hang them’. But now… it was amazing how much suffering people went through and Kero really wasn’t surprised that many of them turned to crime. When Felis returned, Kero took the offered paper and looked over the picture and name quickly. He recognized them alright, though had never seen the guy in person. At Felis’s question, Kero looked up from the poster and nodded. “He’s a thief. Has dozens upon dozens of reports on him dating as far back as over ten years ago. There is rumour he may have even taken a few lives, though there is no proof on that. Rumours on a criminal are often over exaggerated. Don‘t know if that‘s his real name either. Just the one that most commonly came up.” He tried his best to keep it sort, answering only the question. Felis seemed rather… well, almost distraught about the entire thing. As if this was a heavy block on his shoulders. Kero could understand that feeling. It had been one he felt often when trying to prove himself worthy of his title and perhaps more. [/scrolly] [bg=brown]

[Jay]

Alvaro had simply smiled at Kero and hadn't said anything back even as Felis came back in. Theft, petty crimes, and maybe some killing. Felis wasn't sure whether he wanted to kick this 'Sen' in the face for robbing his people or make him serve them. The latter of the two was more inclined, yet the prior of the two was what Feli was feeling the urge to do at the moment. After a few seconds, he sighed and nodded. "I see," he answered back after a moment closing his eyes.

"If anything then, I'll probably chain him to a community service block and make him fix up Evergreen then," he answered back. As for the second man, Felis wasn't sure, yet he might as well do the same thing seeing as they were caught together. The thought of a public trial of sorts suddenly hit Felis's mind, yet he wasn't sure if he wanted to go through with that. Being the Duke anyways, he was the highest regional judge pretty much.

Meanwhile, Alvaro quite literally laughed and for a few seconds, he did so without calming down. Felis blinked slowly and turned his head to one side at Alvaro's reaction of sorts. "Hm?" was the question posed. Meanwhile, Alvaro seemed to relax a bit and shook his head.

"And here I thought I'd be playing undertaker for a hanging," Alvaro grinned causing Felis to blink even more. Undertaker....wait...this guy...looked oddly familiar now that he thought about it. Shaking his head, Felis fought for a straight face.

[Lady Leaf]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Kero was about to make a comment on what sounded like Felis’s decision but was cut off when Alvaro began to laugh. At first the laughter had shocked Kero and he turned to give a rather confused expression. Though as Alvaro explained the reason he had began to laugh, Kero found himself chuckling. “Sorry, maybe next time,” Kero replied, patting Alvaro lightly on the leg before adding, “Maybe when we catch that Nero guy.” Gawd he hoped he’d be able to bring that man down. Ok… well Kero had nothing on her other then attacking a count, but he still wanted to see her behind bars. At lest then maybe he could take him down for any other criminal acts he had done. Kero was certain Nero had to be a bad a person. After all, who carried around such weapons without being some sort of killer or criminal. Not anyone Kero knew! “I’m sure Evergreen with be grateful for the free labour. It could do a lot of good.” Kero then finally replied to Felis. Though his words weren’t completely true. It was exactly free as they would still need to be fed and given a place to sleep be that jail or not. It cost a lot more money than simply hanging them. However, having the city fixed up would most likely be worth far more than a bit of food. [/scrolly] [bg=brown]

[Jay]

Felis blinked. Nero as in the Roman Emperor-- no of course that wasn't right... Someone just used the name then. After a few seconds, Felis shook his head a bit clearing it and smiling a bit. "Well that got settled rather quickly though I'm glad for it. I will require that you stay for lunch though. Now then, Cora dearest you said you needed something or something?" Felis asked directing his words now at the blonde.

Meanwhile, Alvaro seemed to slowly smile to himself and leaned back in his chair. Yep, this Duke seemed pretty laid back~ Looking sideways ta Kero a moment, Alvaro grinned rather easily.

Cora looked up at Felis and blinked a few times before she smiled and realized what he had asked. Though now she was unsure if this was the right time to ask.. But she may never get chance like this later.. So now it was time for her to have the courage to ask. " Where to start? Heh..:" Cora said nervously at first but got her act together. " I may as well get to the point, I have a chance to meet my birth parents, but I need help with something.. And your the only one I know I can trust with this.. You see I...I.... I was wondering if you could teach me how to act like a noble, I know where I can get a dress, but what good is one if I can't act the part? But seeing as you have a lot on your hands, if you say no I understand.. You don't have to take time out of your day just for me.." Cora said and looked down at her lap, kinda to scared to look at Feils at the moment. And made sure to leave out the things about his Father and Adam who was waiting for her back in the city.
