Galatea hummed, listening to Evergreen rant about Elfman. Evergreen was properly sitting on a chair at the table, while Galatea was sprawled across the table on her back, stretching out her muscles.
"Ever, you're gonna chat Tea's ears off."
Galatea inhaled the scent of rock candy, recognizing it to be Laxus. She looked up at said mage, who had his brow cocked at the girl, who currently was resembling a starfish.
"I am not." Evergreen said indignantly. "Right Tea?"
Galatea only hummed.
"You weren't even paying attention, were you?" Evergreen sighed.
"I mean, I was." Galatea said, "But then I fell asleep."
Laxus and Evergreen chuckled.
"Why are you always tired during the day?" Evergreen asked, "You only seemed awake when night came."
Galatea puffed out her cheeks slightly, blowing a piece of hair out of her face.
"I was raised nocturnal." Galatea said, "My magic is the strongest at night because of that, so I usually do most of my activities when the sun sets. I'm learning to adjust, but I still operate best at night."
"Was your Dragon nocturnal?" Laxus asked, still standing and looking at the woman who was still sprawled across the table.
"Yeah." Galatea said, and a look of nostalgia washed across her face which Laxus recognized from whenever Natsu talked about Igneel.
"Her name is Andromeda. She was born from the stars, and taught me to channel the primordial energy from the vastness of space." Galatea explained, "Evergreen reminds me a lot of her."
Evergreen looked at Galatea.
"I remind you of a Dragon?" She asked incredulously.
Galatea hummed.
"That was a compliment, Greenie."
"Did your Dragon also disappear with the rest of the Dragons?" Laxus asked, curious if she was like Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy.
"Nah. She just lives in a different country." Galatea said, "We got separated when Acnologia attacked you guys, and then we agreed that we'd both be safer it we went different ways. She said I have to visit her once a year."
"That's nice at least." Evergreen said.
"Yeah but the travel is a bitch. I can't even portal to her, cause she blocks my magic. She makes me climb an entire freaking mountain just to scold me for not living like a normal 21-year-old." Galatea said, huffing.
Galatea's attitude made the other two laugh.
"OI TEA!" Natsu yelled.
Galatea let out a little shriek and disappeared into a portal, having been startled by the Fire Dragon Slayer. She then re-appeared on top of one of the rafters.
"Don't startle me like that, Natsu." Galatea grumbled.
"Take me to your Dragon." Natsu cheered.
"No."
"What do you mean no?"
"Would you like me to spell it out for you? N-O."
Natsu raged at Galatea's unwillingness to cooperate with him.
"Why won't you take me to your Dragon."
"Cause she doesn't like Igneel, so she won't like you."
