Intertwined
(The two travelers, Jude and Leia, set their sites for Auj Oule. In Jude's rooming quarters, he counts all his gald while Leia practices hand attacks.)
Jude: Okay, so far I have spent 70 gald. Not bad for 2 weeks. I'm right on budget!
Leia: Whatcha saving up for?
Jude: Saving up for?
Leia: Oooooooh! I see! You're gonna give me a surprise birthday gift, then?
Jude: If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise.
Leia: You're pulling my leg, aren't you? -__-
Jude: Maaaaybe! ;)
Leia: Meany! Xp *Continues to practice*
Jude: No, I'm just making sure I have enough to cover us both, you know as far as provisions are concerned. That, and I have to include our stay at an inn.
Leia: That reminds me. Don't we have to pass through Kanbalar in order to see Gaius?
Jude: Yes. Why?
Leia: >_< I didn't think this through!
Jude: What's wrong?
Leia: I forgot to bring my fluffy coat! Now I'm gonna freeze to death!
Jude: You can use my jacket until we find a town market.
Leia: But the coats are expensive! And I was so eager to wear my coat Dad bought me. It's my favorite!
Jude: Have you worn it yet?
Leia: Yes! To bed!
Jude: Uh, come again?
Leia: Jude, you have thicker skin than me. So you don't have to feel cold all the time. Every night, my mom blasts the AC so my room is a freakin' ice box!!
Jude: Why turn up the AC at night?
Leia: Her allergies.
Jude: I don't see how that can be logical.
Leia: Me neither! It makes me wanna pull my hair out!
Jude: Then why not tell her?
Leia: This is my mom we are talking about. She'll maul me in my sleep if I whine and complain to her about the AC.
Jude: That's true.
(The ship docks at Lakutam Seahaven. Jude and Leia find a carriage ride.)
Leia: That's new!....Wanna ride?
Jude: Uh sure!
(They hop aboard the carriage ride and head down Lakutam Highroad.)
Leia: Aah...how relaxing. Way better than walking, huh Jude?
Jude: You got that right. *Look around the fields.* I can't believe we were here months ago. Out to save the world...
Leia: Yep! If you could, would you do it all over again?
Jude: Good question....I don't know. A part of me says heck yeah! But then, the other part of me says-
Leia: Heck no! :3
Jude: Hahahaha, yeah!
(They continue to travel halfway towards Xian Du.)
Leia: *Groans* Are we there yet?
Jude: Not yet. We still have an hour left.
Leia: Uuuuuuugh...I'm soooooo hungry!
Jude: I kinda figured you'd say that. *Reaches in his bag and pulls out a tuna sandwich.* Tuna sandwich?
