"Eh.. no no its alright, my water is fine... "
Looking up at her, he smiled, but then, noticed something quickly.. that it probably wouldnt have been to much of a good thing for his health to tell her no so blatantly like that. Instead he just nodded slightly and took the sandwich.
"Ehm. Thanks. "
He looked down at the sandwich and then heard her comment about Joesph eating school food, he had to admit that also got a little bit of a chuckle on his part, but in taking a bite of the sandwich he blinked a bit, wow. A hell of alot better then those potatoes.. that much he knew.

Talbot sighed softly, popping a sky blue piece of candy into her mouth and glanced back at the door, "The cooks here are incompitent idiots. They haven't cooked a single thing here to its complete perfection. I've given them lists, submitted forms to the headmaster and still they will not let me assist."
As she spoke she watched as Mikon popped his little head out of the sleeve and hopped onto the table, folding his wings up to keep his feathers from touching the table, and he leaned over the edge and peered at the animal with Scith. He chittered softly to the animal. Wondering if it wanted to play a game. Mikon could handle is own as long as it was a fun game and not 'don't eat me!'
"It's why I don't eat what they make. You can smell when the ingedients are missing- that is never good. And they believe pepper is an ingredient rather than a spice. You should have seen the last batch of fish they made. What a catastrophe!"

Continuing to eat down the assembled foods of his tray, he listened intently to the girl's story, though taking note of the prancing familiar. Finishing his bowl of potatoes Joseph was feeling much better. Yet ravenous hunger still pestered him. It was understandable since he hadn't eaten since yesterday morning. All that damned flying to get here just because his father insisted that he be delivered to the school in a gunmage copter. The whole ride had made his revolver uneasy, making the corresponding emblem on his back itch.
Regardless of his persisting hunger, Joseph pushed his tray away and looked up at the girl, "So you like to cook, eh? Perhaps you'd like to refine my tastes later with a personal meal. I may not be finicky, but I assure you I've learn to value...the pleasent things if you will. Before you answer though I wanna guess...likes to cook...hmm...Alchemist?" he asked willing his hunger into submission.

Talbot shook her head, taking another piece of the candy, "Nope. I'm not that great of a cook. Maybe one day, but not for now."
The mixing part of alchemy made her very wary of her talent in cooking and the ability to make rose and pewter wine- but Talbot had long ago descided she would wait until she was in her more venerable years.
Talbot smirked and closed one eye, "And I don't cook for just anyone all willy nilly, Blackie. Tough I am more than willing to share what I do carry with me."
Mikon chittered at the animal with Scith again, whiping his little tail and fluttering his wings- wanting to play.

Joseph crossed eyes with Scith, "Oh, she's proud of her work too." he said with a sarcastic grin. Looking back at Talbot, the gunmage nodded, "Alright then, so you're not an alchemist then, so what are you? Oh and did you make that candy?" he asked simply. This was good. He'd pegged the girl as the quiet type, but she didn't seem to have a problem talking now.

Ziare saw Talbot sitting with Scith and a boy she didn't know yet. Must be new she thought. And there was Talbot going off on the cooks in the kitchen again. She snuck up behind Talbot...
"Going on about the cooking staff again, are we sis?" she asked laughing.
Ziare looked at the other two...
"Pardon my intrusion I just couldn't help saying something." she said with a smile and elbowed Talbot gently with a grin.

Talbot smirked, well she had officially found Zaire's male opposite- this guy had plenty of questions- not that she minded it was just amusing. Taking the piece of candy she had chosenout of her mouth, this piece being a little bigger than the others, she tilted her head back and look at it through the light- trying to remember why the pink ones were so sour.
"I am simply me. My primary casting is dirivited from the wind but I have found gravity manipulation to be very interesting."
It wasn't anyone's business about her little experiments with the random ingredient influences- if anything she was a dabbler-- a successful one which in any terms the most notorious and dangerous kind.
"And yes I did, made the bag too, help yourself," she finished putting the candy back into her mouth and closing one eye as the bitter taste flooded her mouth.
Then jumped as Zaire snuck up behind her- think of the devil! Talbot coughed hard delodging the candy from her throat before hugging Zaire and giving her a friendly noogie, "Don't you know it's not safe to sneak up on people when they're eating?"

Joseph chuckled as he poped a peice of candy from the bag. "Especially in a place like this," he commented to the girl who had just joined them, "Much obliged by the way Talbot. These are pretty good. Nice and sweet." The gunmage looked the new girl over. She was wearing a strange set of robes. "And who is this other lovely young lady that joins us?" he asked flitting his charming smile once more.

Ziare blushed she had just come from a summoning lesson and now that she had robes she was required to wear them to the lessons and any time she was to use her powers for academy use. She sat down next to Talbot. She rubbed her head...
"Hey that hurt." she said with a grimmace.
"Sorry, I'm Ziare." she said warmly to the boy she had yet to meet. "I'm afraid I've not had the pleasure of making your acquaintance."

He gave the girl a warm smile in return, "Actually I just met talbot and Scith here as well. My name is Joseph Midnight, and well this is my first day at the academy." he said with a chuckle. The emblem on his back was warming up; his revolver like these girls. <You and me both little guy.> he thought simply. "Which reminds me, any of you have tips for surviving up here in the sky? I know Scith had some, but I suppose ladies should always go first."

Mikon did a back flip, landing on Zaire's shoulder and pressing his nose to her cheek before going back to pesting Scith's animal- Mikon really wanted to play.
Talbot looked at Zaire and smiled softly, "Don't be a baby- I barely touched you," and hugged Zaire.
Look at Joseph now she thought, staring right at him and thinking, her gray eyes seeming to fluxuate as a slight smile crept onto her face, "Best advice I can give is don't tick anyone off. It's bad for your health in a place like this."

"Heh" Joseph replied with a smile, "I suppose that's good enough advice." The gunmage returned the girl's glance with his own. Their eyes meeting his charming smile returned. Not sure what it was, he like this one. Kind of peppy, but deep at the same time. Thinking on the warmth of the emblem tatoo, the Joseph unconsciously stroked his revolvers handle.

Ziare smiled at that, it was true. Be friendly and all was good get in someone's way and it wasn't going to be fun. Ziare thought about what her advice would be.
"Hmmm, well everyone is really quite nice here so I haven't a lot of advice to give." she said looking back at Joseph. "Wait, don't become a summoner...you'll have to wear these."
She said giggling and holding up her arm to indicate the robes. She turned to Talbot and winced.
"They told me to not only hold a demonstration but they are thinking about making it more flashy, add some dancing some kind of mystic staff twirling dance." She looked sadly at Talbot and sighed giving her a why me look.

Talbot now stared at the table, taking the candy out of her mouth she winced slightly, "Darn it! Don't eat the pink ones- they're-" She lay her head on the table and fell asleep.
Mikon chirped at the animal then turned looking at Talbot and squeeking as if laughing- yes the elemental wind mouse had finally got the best of his ward.

Joseph cocked his head as he looked down at the girl. The gunmage looked up at Ziare with a confused expression. "She a narcaleptic?" he asked slowly, not wishing to offend in case she was. Though, one would imagine something as trivial as narcalepsy could be fixed rather quickly in a place like the Arcane Academy.
