Aiko looked down at his shirt, well, the mistresses fathers shirt.He looked back at Emily and nodded.Agreeing on both things.

Emily picked a towel up off of the table and wiped her forehead with it. "That was a good workout. We need to get another boulder for the dojo so I can try to lift two."

Aikos ears perked up just a little hit, "you can lift a boulder?" He asked..he hated to admit it, but he couldn't do that.

Emily nodded a yes. "Yep. I was a mercenary after all. Trained at a rather young age, too."

"Oh..." Aiko said looking at Emily.

"Yeah, I guess I don't look the part anymore." Emily looked at the dress she wore during her work.

He looked at her dress, and shook his head.He couldn't tell that she had been, and her no occupation didn't aliby with that fact.

Emily lifted her eyes from her dress and looked at him. "So... Anything you wanted talk to me about?" She asked, trying to make conversation.

"Nothing comes to mind.." he answered.He didn't believe there was anything..

Emily shrugged. "Sorry I'm not you're girlfriend. I must not make for conversation as interesting as hers." She apologized. She was terrible at talking to people for long periods of time.

"Don't apologize.." he said.He kept his eyes on her, not looking away.Not everyone was fond of long conversation..

"So are you excited for tomorrow?" She asked, the thought of the ball crossing her mind.

"Very" he answered. That spark of excitement returning to his eyes.

"Bring your sword with you." She ordered him. "It'll make you look... Sophisticated and somewhat powerful."

"but...I'm not powerful.." he said.Or at least he didn't think he was...

"That's the point." She stated. "As long as you look like you can defend yourself and the mistress you'll be fine. I won't be there so I can't help you.

"Okay," he said."I'll wear the sword.." he finished up that sentence.He felt like he'd be lying for doing so, but he guessed it was best..

"Sorry it feels like I'm naggging you about this." She apologized. To her it felt like she had been telling grace and aiko what not to do at this ball and she was afraid she'd ruin their good time.

He shook his head, "I don't mind.." he said.In his thoughts, all of Emily's advices were probably for the better..

"Well, I think I'm gonna go read for a little while and then it should be time for bed. See ya aiko." Emily got up from her seat and left the kitchen, going into the library and sitting down beginning to read.
