Off to the see the (dragon) wizard! (Jaela)

[Anastasia]

Okay, going with anyone to the Cauldron or going off by yourself?

[Corwin]

If my brother's available I'd like to go with him.

[Anastasia]

You find your brother in Hanna's room, sitting on the bed. So is 27, the two staring at each other silently. "I can keep doing this all day, slaad," your brother says, arms crossed.

[Corwin]

"Yes, but why would you want to?" Jaela asks with a grin. "I'm thinking of heading over to the Cauldron. Wanna come?"

[Anastasia]

27 hops over your brother and turns in mid-air, facing you by the time he lands. "Do not expect to get out without interruption," 27 warns.

[Corwin]

"You've got time till we're out of the gates," Jaela tells 27 calmly. "If you think we'll need some help, go ahead and round up a couple more for the trip."

[Anastasia]

"You need less people, not more. Perhaps less clothing," 27 suggests.

To which your brother picks him up by the scruff of the neck and smiles, "Did you proposition my sister?" He turns 27 to him and gives him a look, "I have years and years of playing the protective big brother to catch up on."

[Corwin]

"Weird, even for you," Jaela tells 27, shaking her head as she heads for the nearest portal. "You know, he used to be quasi-helpful? Even got me a weird ritual for a cockroach-proof room--"

Jaela halts, and then speaks into the air, "Elena, remind Mirajane that I haven't done it for my suite, and could she please handle it?"

She coughs into her fist. "Anyway, at some point it all just went downhill. He started predicting my death in the most misleading way possible. And wrong, too! Still here!"

[Anastasia]

27 doesn't blink. "Mirima's waiting for you," 27 finally says. "Your brother would be a disruption for what she plans, Jaela."

Your brother drops the slaad, "Are you...seers," Your brother shrugs, "Glad you're still here, too."

[Corwin]

Jaela scratches her cheek. "So yeah, we actually stop by the cafeteria to eat whenever we leave. It's tradition and everything. I'll catch up to you there?" she tells her brother, before addressing Elena again, "Can you tell me where Mirima is and let her know I'm going to stop over for a moment?"

[Anastasia]

"Yeah, sure," Your brother hops up, "Take all the time you need," he adds with a grin, going off into the portal.

[Corwin]

There's no way to make it any less awkward, so Jaela just pretends it doesn't bother her. She waits for Elena to guide her way, before following the directions!

[Anastasia]

"She said she'd catch up to you here," Elena says, "Rather than making you catch up with her."

[Corwin]

At the corridor by her mother's room? Jaela just shrugs mentally. "Thanks, Elena!"

She'll wait.

[Anastasia]

Mirima isn't long. "Jaela," She greets you as she comes in. "Perfect timing, I was about to ask Elena where you were."
