Hey there, Luceti! Name's Zack. Just wanna toss in the usual mention to newcomers that the local bar, Good Spirits, is in the plaza, and it's pretty much always open if you're in need of a little something to take the edge off. We serve more than booze, so don't worry if you're underage. I run the place, along with Shizuo and the lovely ladies Buffy and Meryl. Feel free to stop by anytime!

Just checking in to see if you've got the details for the Brave Vesperia job. Yuri's back, so he'll probably be taking over soon, but I figure I may as well handle this one first.

[AND WITH THAT DONE... Since Cloud's arrival, Zack has been giving some serious thought to his weaponry. With Cloud trying to stake his claim on the Buster sword, and Zack needing some way to break the tension, it's probably about time to make a peace offering. First things first, though- he heads over to the weapon shop to visit a blacksmith. After that, he'll head to Cloud's apartment, Buster sword in hand.

Feel free to bump into him wherever! Alternatively, use this as a mingling bar post. IT IS QUITE OPEN I SAY.]

Me? You sure about that? Because I'm definitely not the guy for the job.

Oh?

[You can't just say that and not explain, Zack.]

Yyyep. [Are you sure? Just watch him.]

What makes you say that?

[Prying because he can.]

[Curse you.]

Like I said, I'm bad with kids. I usually end up either being frustrated when they're acting like brats or going along with whatever mess they're getting themselves into. Not the responsible type you want taking care of the little guys.

In that case, Asbel is definitely not the sort of child I would want in your care. Hubert, perhaps, but Asbel has a knack for finding trouble... if it doesn't find him first.

There, you see? I told you! Not a kid person. Maybe if they were teenagers or something, that'd be okay, but...

Yes, an overgrown child watching other children is certainly a bad idea.

[But it's said in a joking tone, as he's well aware that he can be an overgrown child himself at times.]

[Joke accepted! Especially since he admitted it himself.]

So what're you gonna do? And who's watching them while you're here?

That I'm not sure. Miss Cheria is watching them for the moment, but it isn't fair to ask her to keep a constant eye on them, and I'm not sure I would trust Miss Pascal to watch children either.

You don't seem that worried about it. [To sit here drinking- they must be old enough to manage somehow...]

I trust that she can manage to keep them under control for a couple of hours at least.

Well, hopefully they'll change back to normal soon, and you won't have to worry about it anymore.
