104 // [voice / action]

[It's been just about two weeks since Yuri's return to Luceti. He mostly kept to himself during this time, wanting to make certain he had most - if not all - of his memories of Luceti back before he made it clear that he was around again. ... And of course, before taking control of Brave Vesperia again. Seeing his guildmates and having no clue who half of them were wouldn't exactly win him any points with them, after all.

But now, he was sure he remembered most things. ... Little details weren't around, but he didn't see the details as being nearly as important as faces and names. Regardless, he decided that he'd done enough waiting around and flipped open his journal.]

[ voice ]

I guess I've put this off long enough. [... Geez, what does he even say? "Hey guys, I'm back, in case someone didn't know!" Wow, that's kind of lame. Uhm.] So ... for those who know me, I'm back again - and I remember most things, as far as I can tell. For those who've got no clue who I am ... I wouldn't worry about it. I'm just one of those guys who keeps winding up here for whatever reason. You know, one of the "lucky" ones. [You could practically hear the quotes around 'lucky'.]

Anyway, I'll be taking charge of Brave Vesperia again over the next few days. So, if you've got any business with the guild and need to contact the guy in charge, send a message out to Yuri Lowell. I'll get back to you when I can. Also, if any guild members have anything they feel should be brought to my attention or anything like that, just let me know.

[Hm ... Yeah, that should be good enough. Although, there is one last thing ...]

... Aside from all that, I've got a question. Does anyone know just who was in charge of that training school thing from a while back? I've got a few things to ask them, if they're still around.

[ action ]

[Aside from that bit of business he had to take care of, Yuri's also at the battle dome, trying to get used to using the control panel for it again. ... Sure, he's only got it to do basic things (send out monsters in a typical grassy field), but it's something. He'll figure the rest of it out later.

So yes, feel free to run into him while he tries to figure out how to do more than just super basic things with the battle dome, or even catch him while he's training there.]

Right. Lighten your workload, by announcing our services again.

I just said I was taking over again, that's all. [ ... ] Not that that really stopped someone from asking us to do something for them, but you can't say I opened the floodgates, or anything like that.

How many building requests have you got for us now?

Just one more. After this, though, I'm gonna be a lot pickier about which buildings I okay. Especially since we might have something a lot less hammer and nail related in our future, if things go well.

With the training school? I remember Buffy starting that.

Yeah, that. [ ... ] So, Buffy's the other owner of that thing, huh? Figures I'd get the co-owner I don't want to deal with. [... Right, thinking aloud. Time to carry on--] Anyway, I figure trying to take that school over might be a better use of the guild's time and resources, but I'm still trying to get all the details together, so ...

[Other owner? He didn't know anything about that.]

Well, I already have someone I'm training. So I guess that means I'm already doing better than the rest of the guild.

Oh yeah? ... Well, I guess that'll just make it a little easier when I explain this whole thing to everyone else. [A pause while he shrugs to himself.] If someone doesn't get it, I'll just point them your way.

Right. Since it's such a complex concept and all.

Yeah, I guess you're right about that.

So in that case, you can explain what they'd be doing.

What, you mean to the rest of the guild? It's not like I'm some kind of... teaching prodigy. I'm still working it out for myself.

I'm sure you'll find a way to do it. I mean, it's not complex or anything, right?

[You can almost hear the smirk in his voice at this point.]

Ha ha. The concept is easy. The doing is harder!

And here you made it sound so simple.

[... All right, that's enough ragging on Sokka. It's no fun to drag it out, anyway.]

Anyway, if anyone's got any questions about it, I still might be making you answer them, depending on what it's about. Just be prepared for that much.

Fine. I guess I'll just have to settle for being the expert. Again.

[What a terrible life he leads, being good at things the guild does.]

I'm sure you'll find a way to cope.

[Yes. It's terrible. Look at all the sympathy Yuri is giving off.]

Do you think we'll even get people who want to learn?

I sure hope so. I mean, if nothing else, there's gotta at least be someone out there looking to sharpen their skills a little, right? Even someone like that would be fine.

Great. So we're volunteering ourselves for people who are bored and want someone to beat up.

I didn't say we were switching from building things to being punching bags, you know. Have some faith in me, would you?

At this rate, I'm not even sure if the Malnosso are even going to keep you around.

... Well, I guess I can't really blame you for that. But until that happens, I am here.

Fine, but I think I should get left in charge next time. It's not fair that Zack keeps putting himself in charge. I've been here longer.

[Yuri pauses at that for a moment. ... Well, really, that is kind of unfair. Sokka was with the guild longer than Zack - well, THIS Zack - was, so he really should've been the one in charge when Yuri disappeared.

... But.]

You know, if I didn't think you'd just change the guild's name, I'd consider making some kind of note that you're the one in charge when I'm not in Luceti. [shrug] So, I guess you're out of luck until I know for sure that I can come back here someday and not see some weird name attached to the guild.

[Well, this is mostly Sokka complaining for the sake of complaining. All the same:]

Well if your fighting school works, I won't need to change the name. We'll actually be a guild that doesn't feel falsely titled.
