[Every thirty seconds or so, Loki lets out another yawn. He's not accustomed to rising this early, and dislikes it.

At least there is food. He takes another bite out of the apple he's holding and tries to will his eyes to stay more than half open.]

[Gai drops by with a grin.]

If you keep yawning that much you may start to catch flies!

[He starts, clapping a hand to his mouth mid-yawn.]

You're the man from the DEMISE! Aren't you? The one who organized this?

...couldn't you have started it a little later in the day?

[Gai shrugs.]

I took it over for someone who was too injured to continue. It was already set in the morning, and I saw this as the best time for it!

But surely you could have left us another hour at least. A little more sleep would do no harm.

Why waste a beautiful morning? The sun is up and we should be as well!

I would hardly call it a waste.

Sleeping is of course a waste of it. There is much that you can do with your day! And when this is done you still have much day to use!

And I plan to use it to sleep.

Not used to this early of a morning yet? [[Very much can sympathize there. There was a reason he was on his 3rd cup of tea and loading up on yet another plate of pancakes.]]

I doubt I shall ever be. Did they say this happens every day?

[[nods]] Yeah, at the same time every time. [[Deep drink of his tea.]] It gets easier, the more you do it, honest!

I'll take your word for it. I'm here to learn how to use my Meister ability, nothing more. Once I can access that power, I'll train on my own.

At a more reasonable hour.

Can you train something like on your own? [[pure curiosity there, since obviously Weapons couldn't train solo.]]

I don't see why I couldn't. It's my ability, is it not? Unless -- must resonance be achieved for a Meister to use his power?

I'm not actually sure, I just assumed it had to be that way.

Well, I'm sure I'll find out. I am here to learn these things.

I take it you're a Weapon then. What is it that you can do?

[Oh dear. It's that prince she saw on network few days ago! It really pleases Cinderella to see him here.. Though she also wishes that she had prepared something more fancy for a dinner.]

Good morning, your highness! [she greeted.]

Is there something I can get for you?

Edited 2012-05-11 00:41 (UTC)

[It's the lovely young woman with manners! Cinderella, if he remembers right. Loki would greet her more warmly if he felt more awake. As it is, he's grumpy but without any real vitriol.]

Another hour of sleep, if you please.

Heh, I take it that early mornings aren't for you? [Not that she can relate...]

Well, it's always possible for you to come here a hour or two later.

[Sarcasm:]

And miss all the fun?

...

...

...in all seriousness, how much would I miss if I came a bit later?

I'm not sure. [She taps her chin.]

But not much, I'd think. Most of people usually are here until the 10 am so it shouldn't matter even if you didn't come here when the sun rises. Only thing you might miss is the breakfast.

If my Meister ability is something I can practice alone, I shan't have to come here at all. Nevertheless, I thank you for your advice. I shall remember it if I must return.

I'm to happy to help you, your highness. [she does a small curtsy.]

However, you can do other things here than just practice your ability. You can look for a potential weapon and spar with others.

[Ew sparring. Loki had been forced to do it while learning the basics of combat when he was younger and he'd hated it. He does his best to conceal his distaste -- his pokerface about it would have been flawless if he weren't tired -- and focuses on the question of finding a weapon instead.]

I'm not sure I'd make a very good Meister. I'm not a warrior, and my skills will never lie on the field of battle. What good would a Weapon do me -- and what good would I do a Weapon -- if I don't intend to fight?
