[ These people from Hands of Decay are pre-tty stupid if they think everyone's going to believe the propoganda they're spreading around. At least that's Lucy's opinion. She wasn't buying the news assessment of that Summoner. There were still too many unknowns, though she genuinely found it amusing that the Hands of Decay seemed to think Fairy Tail was only protecting mages. ]

Just goes to show that this terrorist group is just a bunch of small minded, prejudiced bigots. Their information isn't even accurate.

[ At least regarding Fairy Tail - but that was no shock. Not to mention their letter came awfully quickly after the attack. She's read plenty of books where this kind of thing happened - heck, she's written some. Her suspicion was at all an all time high, especially after their findings at the ruins. It was frustrating to not even be able to confirm her suspicions. ]

But on to more important things, aside from pointing fingers. I'm donating some funds to the families of those who suffered in the aftermath of the attack in Fayren. I know better than anyone that that won't fix things, but it will at least, help them a little. That in mind I am asking for anyone who wishes to, to volunteer food, funds or manual labor to the victims; that includes healers (doctors and mage alike), to volunteer their services either for free or a greatly reduced rate, to assist those victims not buying into the Hands of Decay's ridiculous nonsense. We'll be heading out to help with repairs now, but you can send me a message over the network.

[ She's not going to say where donations can be sent, if any are, because that can be easily intercepted. She'd rather speak directly to someone about that. ]

[ OOC: Tl;dr, Lucy is coordinating relief efforts for the victims of the Fayren attack. Basically looking for donations, Food, medical assistance etc and help with repairs. ]

[ ACK Confrontation! She jumped a bit, leaning away when he leaned in her face. He was doing that just so she couldn't avoid him wasn't he. ]

Ah..! ....well... yeah. Virgo was acting a little strangely when we were fighting the other day...

[explodewiththerage]

[Luckily for her that's fairly decent of an excuse for hwo odd she's acting.]

What do you mean strangely?

[celestial_wizard]

Well.. she seemed really distracted, like something was bothering her. But it was only for a second. She even changed her summoning days.

[explodewiththerage]

Hmmmmm that's weird alright. Did you ask her about any of these things?

[celestial_wizard]

Yeah, but she denied anything was wrong.

[ Sound like someone else you know? ]

And then she gave me a towel to cool off.

[ That part had been so random she couldn't help but giggle. ]

Still... I hope there really isn't anything wrong.

[ Virgo was after all, her dearest spirit after Aquarius. ]

[explodewiththerage]

A towel to...cool off. Riight....

[He's starting to think it wasn't Virgo who was acting weird but merely pointing out Lucy is being weird.]

[celestial_wizard]

... Why are you looking at ME like that!?

[ She wasn't the one that was acting strangely! She wasn't! ]

[explodewiththerage]

Because. I think she noticed something about you instead.

[Yup that's the only way any of that makes sense.]

[celestial_wizard]

[ ... that's... not something she considered. ]

About me...? What do you mean?

[ And she pointed accusingly. ]

And if you say 'she noticed your weirdness' so help me, Natsu..!

[explodewiththerage]

Well I dunno. She spent more time around you until we went to find those two people in the ruins. After that it was really hard to miss what was bugging you.

[The pointing got a chuckle out of him and he answered with a big grin.]

Nah if it was that she would have said it to your face.

[celestial_wizard]

... Maybe... [ She mused - of course they were attuned to each other, thanks to the bond between spirit mage and spirit but -- WHAT. She looked at the grinning bastard of a dragonslayer, snapped out of her thoughts. ]

Wha.. NATSU!

[ Talk about burn. Though the it had distracted her from the -other- thing that had been bothering her. ]

She would not! She wouldn't even say something like that! [ ... probably? ]

[explodewiththerage]

[Well whatever it was he managed to chase it off for now so he'll take it and just laugh shamelessly at her outburst!]

You don't sound so sure about that~

[celestial_wizard]

Well I am~! Only you would say something like that.

[ And he had the nerve to just laugh too! The gall of these dragons! She knew she wouldn't be able to shove him, but nothing said she couldn't swat him for his impertinence! ]

[explodewiththerage]

The fact that you're flailing like that tells a different story ya know~

[ He is going to keep laughing of course~]

[celestial_wizard]

Whatever...! Virgo would side with me, not make fun like you!

[ ... no, she'd ... she'd probably have fun taking Natsu's side, actually. ]

[explodewiththerage]

Oh really? You can prove it you know~

[Oh dear is this a dare?]

[celestial_wizard]

[ ... it totally is. And she's not going to back down either! Even though there's a chance that Virgo'll side with him. She huffed, reaching down to the key at her side. ]

Yeah, that's true...

[ A slight smirk crept across her lips in silent answer to his unspoken challenge. SHE'S NOT AFRAID. ]

[explodewiththerage]

[She's just too easy to trick. Seeing her realize it was just as entertaining.]

Alright then.

[Crosses his arms and wait for the show.]

[celestial_wizard]

[ She has faith in her spirit! She won't let her down! No sir, she won't side with Natsu and troll her! ... ...wait... ]

Open, Gate of the Maiden! Virgo~!

[ Knock knock O Spirit, thy presence has been summoned! ]

[ooc and letting Virgo jump in here ;D]

[meidomasochism]

[By popular demand, the gates open! Low and behold, a Virgo appears! Oblivious to the situation at hand as she arrives carrying a massive wooden spoon, easily the size of herself.]

Virgo has arrived.

[explodewiththerage]

Yo Virgo. Long time no see~

[Greeting her as casually as always. Though he does give a funny look at the spoon she's armed with.]

Huh that's new.

[celestial_wizard]

[ Lucy flashed a warm grin at her friend - though her expression was one of sheer confusion at the... spoon. ]

Virgo, thanks for coming. Um... ... what's... that all about?

[ Is she making a really HUGE chicken soup or something? ]

[meidomasochism]

Greetings, Natsu.

[There are several ways she could answer that question. It's difficult to choose just one but the winner is,]

Capricorn received a new pair of sunglasses for his day of existance. Not to be outdone, I procured a gift of my own.

[She twirls around, then holds it in the air with one hand. If only she were riding a majestic horse! Look at those sparkles!]

It is a spoon.

[explodewiththerage]

It's also huge. YOu could probably scoop up a person with it.

[celestial_wizard]

... [ She got him a -spoon-? ]

Ah...ahaha, I-- I see.

[ Yeah, Natsu called it - she probably COULD scoop up someone with it. ]

I didn't know Capricorn liked ...um, spoons..that much! I'm sure he'll love it.

[ Or... something...? ]
