(eh? really? I know I probably mixed Lyra and Lydia up since im using Lydia in another rp but Kyra? that must have been a type -.- *searches furiously* btw, i gotta go, I'll post tomorrow, no time now)

(sorry for late post, my internet wouldnt work yesterday ^^)

Remael watched the exchange between the both of them, stunned. One he had gathered his composure once more, though, he stepped forward. With expert skill, he placed himself between the two quarreling girls and stuffed a dried plum in each of thier mouths. A slight scowl was on his face, expressing his displeasure in ways words couldn't.

Lyra nervously stood nearby, unsure of what to do. luckily, the mute, Remael, took action. Relief flooded her that Book and Hikari didn't get into an actual fight. That thought stopped there as her mind added the word 'yet' to the end of that sentence.

Remael sighed in relief as Hikari backed down. He gave Book one last warning look before moving over to sit on a nearby rock. It was worn down to comfortable smoothness over the years and Remael often found himself sitting on it whenever he was tressed or needed to think. In this case, it was the former. He had always been alone, save for when he had been with his mentor. Now that there were other here with him, things were much more complicated and a headache was beginning to sprout behind his eyes. As he rubbed the bridge of his nose, he watched Hikari as she rummaged through her bag.

Lyra relaxed as the tension faded. She moved over to where Hikari was clearly searching for something. she asked,

"What are you looking for?"

Hikari looked up at Lyra with determination burning in her soul, she smiled. “Something to enhance the flavour. To make it more exotic.” Hikari pulled out several bags of white, brown, and the occasional green substances. She then removed a travel cooking kit with miniature pans that folded into one another, followed by a small camping cooker and a used candle.  She placed the candle on the floor, and the cooker on top of it. She slid open a little hatch door in the side of it. She then placed two fingers either side of the candle. Hikari closed her eyes, and then concentrated. When she removed her fingers, a bright blue flame could be seen through the mesh. She smiled. “Remael, are there any apple trees, or something like that round here?”  She asked eagerly.  

Looking up from his broodings, Remael nodded. he rose and walked off into the forest to where he knew was a wild fruit tree grove nearby, it was why his mentor had built his home here, of all places.

Lyra, watched Hikari with awe, admiration sparkling in her eyes. With a gulp, she decided upon something and grabbed Hikari's hand without warning, pulling her off into the trees, saying, "i need to talk to you."
