[Video] If you need something taken care of we'll get it done.

Greetings Genessia and associated realms.

My name is Erza Scarlet and I represent the Fairy Tail Guild. We are a group of wizards, identifiable by this mark...

[She shows her left arm which sports a small stylized fairy emblem.]

In light of last week's attack, from today onward we shall be offering the services of our guild in exchange for proper compensation. [She doesn't say 'money' because she would be okay with being paid in strawberry cake. The others probably want money though.]

If you need something done please don't hesitate to submit a request. We will take on jobs both simple or difficult, however we reserve the right to turn down any request at our discretion. As a lawful guild we will not accept assassination contracts or any other task which would violate the laws of this world.

If you have any questions, I will do my best to answer.

I use a similar weapon. It isn't actually magic, but it comes close according to some of the books I've read since arriving here.

[Erza isn't the only one curious. Blake isn't as much of a weapons nut as Ruby is but it is an area of interest. And the chance to see real, actual magic in action was a tempting one indeed.]

If you like, I can meet you there and let you take a closer look. I wouldn't refuse the chance to see this magic of yours first hand either.

Of course!

[Does she sound more than happy to have company? Yes, yes she is. The others were out doing their own things so the redhead was left alone with her boredom and only solitaire with which to entertain herself.]

Then I'll be there shortly.

[She knows the feeling well. Even while Blake was happy keeping to herself with a good book, there was something to be said for having friends nearby.]

[She knows Fayren well by this point so it isn't any trouble for her to get to the inn once she crosses the Archway. Just a little while later she's downstairs in the Inn's common room and looking around for any sign of the redheaded wizard.]

[Oddly enough Erza arrives a few minutes after Blake with a small parcel in her arms.]

Ah, I hope I haven't kept you waiting.

[Hm, that was a little strange. She was sure Erza had been at the Inn while they were speaking. Maybe she'd been mistaken.

Not that it mattered after only a few short minutes of waiting. She turns to greet Erza when she arrives.]

You didn't, I've only been here a few minutes.

[That parcel of hers gets a curious glance. Had she gone out to pick something up?]

[That was a relief; looks like she'd made it back just in time. Erza sets the small cardboard box on the table, a satisfied smile on her face.]

Please have a seat.

[She gestures to one of the sofas.]

I hope you aren't allergic to strawberries?

[Erza opens the box and a sugary aroma wafts from inside; strawberry shortcake! The redhead steps away for a moment to retrieve a pair of saucers and forks.]

[Blake makes her way over to the sofa, taking a seat at Erza's invitation and immediately catches the scent of the cake when she opens the box. Her eyebrows raise a little and, it's easy to miss, but there's a slight twitch of her bow as the ears concealed beneath it perk up in pleasant surprise. She hadn't expected dessert when she came out here!]

I'm not. [She waits a moment until Erza returns with the utensils.] Thank you.

I'm glad, I would feel like a terrible host if I'd brought back something you couldn't eat.

[Erza summons a small silver blade, perhaps too ornate for cake cutting, and proceeds to slice even pieces for them. Erza smiles and hands Blake her own slice before taking a seat beside her guest.]

This is my second sampling from this bakery, it feels like such a long time since I've had a good slice of strawberry cake.

[Excuse her while she digs in. Between savoring every crumb she glances over at Blake.]

So have you been here long? In this world I mean.

[Blake doesn't quite jump when the knife appears, literally, out of thin air but it's definitely a surprise. Huh. So that was magic. She'd caught glimpses of it at other times, when Ice King summoned that huge sword or when the Everglade Guardian had started launching those fireballs but neither of those were things that couldn't be done with enough Dust. Actually summoning a physical object from nowhere? That was new.

... It was almost somehow anticlimactic that it was then used to cut a cake. Oh well.]

[She'll wait until Erza sits down before starting in on her cake with small, even bites, and quickly makes a note to ask Erza which bakery it came from later.]

For about four months now. From what I understand, I was one of the first to appear after the city "reactivated."

Reactivated?

[That seemed like such a strange word to use when talking about a city. It's almost like Blake is describing a machine. Blake's reply about her length of time in Genessia makes Erza a little melancholy.]

Four months? That's a long time to be away from home...

[When she thinks about the seven years she missed in Earthland coupled with her time spent in Exsilium, it really begins to add up. Just how much time had she really gotten to spend at home recently?]

That's how I've heard it described.

[She shrugs a little bit. It was a strange choice of words but it was what she'd heard from people who had been here for a long time.]

... I suppose it is.

[She frowns a little bit, looking down at the cake.]

I guess I haven't thought of it much. The truth is, with my team here, there isn't really anything for me to miss back home.

[The city loves you Blake, you even have Adam and Sun here! Erza perks up a little.]

I must say that I'm quite envious; even though I have Natsu and Lucy with me I miss the rest of my friends who aren't here.

[She continues eating her cake.]

We've been thinking about building a guild hall on the outskirts of the city.

[It sure seems that way, even if it makes her a little guilty to feel like she might be better off here than back home. Maybe it's better to focus on a different topic for now.]

It sounds like a better alternative to creating an Archway. So you're really planning to continue operating here?

Indeed, I have no intention of sacrificing my memories; they're far more precious to me than any material item in this world or any other.

[Even the bad ones.]

For the time being, yes. It will be a good way to make ends meet until we discover just why we were brought here.
