Golden Age: Revival

<You may return to class now.>
========================================
*As they're walking along, they come to a village of huts. Some naked and ambiguously brown people stare at them curiously.*
========================================
*The house is still burned down.*

Noctis tries her best to keep her eyes from dropping too far down. "Ask for a boat." She said, nudging her knightly traveling companion.

*In the hallway, Taiyo pulls on her pigtails.*

"I only told my parents that we just go to places and then write a report for school. I never told them about the other things!"

Mimiru:<It's fine. It's not like he can prove we're responsible for anything.>

"I was hoping to find her parents here..."

"What would they be doing here?" Luna asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I don't know. Maybe looking through the wreckage for their valuables? I hoped for at least a police officer or someone who could tell me where they are."

<Gentlemen, we would like to procure a sailing vessel. Nothing too extravagant, whatever you feel will be most appropriate to our needs. Of course, we are willing to pay in whatever means necessary.>

*They scratch their heads.*
============================================
E"I don't know what my parents would have said or done. I'm sorry, I can't give you any advice."

"A boat? A... um... canoe." Noctis said, while pantomiming someone sailing down river in a canoe.

"...Thanks, anyways I guess."

Mimiru:<I don't even know what my grandmother would say. I don't know if I want to know.>

*A man nods & gestures to a rack of canoes.*

<Wonderful! Now ask him how we'll pay him.>
===================================
E"We should probably get back to class."

"That isn't as easy to pantomime, so how about we just get out of here." Noct said, walking towards the canoes.

"Yeah..."

*The two go on their way back to the classroom.*

<Absolutely not! Stealing is most reprehensible! I will have no part of that, nor will I allow it!>

*They look warily from the 2 & back up from the armored yelling guy.*
==========================================
*Once they get close, the lunch bell rings.*

Noctis let out a sigh, "Fine then, I'll wait here while you try to make a fair transaction with the naked man." She said, taking a seat on a shadow chair.

Azuma:<Looks like you ladies got yourself into a bit of a mess.>

*Mimiru turns around to see Azuma standing behind them who gives a small wave.*

Mimiru:<And how do you know about that? And what are you doing here anyways?>

Azuma:<Heard you all talking in the halls as I was coming in and I have nothing better to do, so I thought I'd pick you up for lunch.>

"Just Mimi? Does that mean-"

Azuma:<I suppose if you want to come along, you can.>

E"He'll probably tell your family as well."
=======================================
*The natives stare at her in awe.*

<Please, do not be alarmed! Oh, what were you thinking, young lady?!>

Luna and Kyoujin drove to the police station, intending to ask if they knew where Deborah's parents could be found.

Azuma:<Hope he has long distance or a oujia board.>

[I bet those things actually work too.]

Azuma:<Anywho, you want to come along as well?>

Noctis blushed, "Right." She said standing up quickly, chair disappearing, "It was an accident, I just..." The thought that she would use her magic so freely startled her a bit, "I didn't mean to, it just happened."

*They inform her that her parents also died in the fire.*
==========================================
<Anyway...>

*He points to the canoe, then mimes giving them something. Eventually, one of them shakes their head, points to a young man, then a tree, then makes carving motions.*
===========================================
"...So, what do we do for lunch? I don't believe I've ever had it like a normal school girl."

Azuma:<Well, I'm offering to take you all somewhere, but I suppose since you're the students it's your decision.>

"I think he is saying that is the one who made the canoes, but I was never really good at charades." Noctis said.

"Oh" Kyoujin stammered, feeling stupid before suddenly tearing up, "...Th-t..thanks for the help.."
Luna put a hand on her shoulder and whispered soothing words as they walked back to the car, but Kyoujin couldn't stop herself from crying.

E"I don't know what I should do in this situation."
=========================================
<I believe he stated that he did not want repayment...that is odd, but most appreciated.>

*He bows. The other dude bows back.*

"That works even better... I suck at charades." Noct said walking over towards the canoes.

Azuma:<You could decline and enjoy the full high school lunch hour experience here or wherever if you choose to leave, or you could accept and have an either better or worse experience.>

*As the river is not yet deep enough, Gallahad hefts it onto his back. The natives wave them off as they exit the village, Gallahad waving back & beaming.*
============================================
"That doesn't help at all."
