"Hm..." Takara said only to finish licking the last bits of cake from her paws and take a gander from the second floor down to the first where Iris could currently be seen speaking to another young mage. "And you thought the best way to converse with her about her potential involvement with dragons was to take her on a mission. Instead of, oh I don't know, just asking her?" Takara concluded. It seemed a bit invasive to try to get the information out of the girl without being a bit more direct about it. Then again, perhaps he was looking to gather more evidence one way or the other and a mission was a good way to determine this.
A smile crossed Aine's face as she both understood the reasoning and knew that it likely would have been crushing for the particular young one not to get what he wanted out of that particular trip up to the sweets. Still it was very odd that a random adult would take any care at all about the well-fare of a random child they didn't know. And this man had done so twice. Regardless of what he was or wasn't he was at the very least had a kind heart and this was something Aine appreciated in all of her friends. "Well, yes, that is true. And I figured he wouldn't make it up there in time. So, I saved him a piece too." Aine mentioned sliding the piece of strawberry shortcake over to Uriel with a smile on her face. "So, accept. And have some cake with the rest of us." she mentioned while breaking to dig into her own favorite which was a triple fudge cake with whipped cream on top. "Ya' know, despite the utter suspicion surrounding you when you arrived here today, you're pretty cool, Uriel~" she went on to say.
Meanwhile Iris was busy talking to the young boy with his so recently acquired cake as she finished up the last of her own. "Hai hai, actually Axel asked me to go on a mission with him." she said about her lack of mission taking. "I was going to refuse, but Sis, thinks I should go and said she'd look after the circus while I am gone so I guess I will." she said having a glance up at the second floor. "It's weird though, Axel is cool and all, but I didn't figure he'd want to go on a mission with me."
