Siglos gingerly nodded. Slowly, he breathed out, a soft, a steady stream of air escaping his lips.
There didn't seem to be anybody working in the kitchen yet, except...
"I'd say they're... interesting nonetheless. Kinda preferred them to be a little more tamed, but beggars can't be choosers." Erebus replied honestly
“O-oh! U-uh…y-yeah!” He said. He hesitated for a moment, before slowly stepping inside. He gave her a quick bow, her ears twitching anxiously.
"O-oh! T-that's...t-that's a-actually w-what I...w-wanted t-to...ask about..." Siglos said quietly. He hesitated for a moment, before continuing.
Siglos glanced at Shalor, nodding at him politely, before continuing.
A small blush crept onto Siglos's face, the man slowly nodding.
"I suppose so...many of them are naturally warriors, and we're a group rather than an army. It takes time for anyone to get used to this kind of environment, especially with the newer members...myself, I aspire to be a teacher rather than a ccombatant...what is your aspiration, Erebus?"
"W-Well... she uh... what exactly is your relationship with her...? She's uh... q-quite frightening, and v-very m-muscular... D-Do you know her?" The woman asked, clearly not having a... particularly good impression of the Rakshashin, especially one of Sylvia's stature.
Siglos said nothing for a moment, before flashing her a soft, shaky smile.
Siglos's cheeks turned a deep crimson, his eyes widening in a mixture of surprise and embarrassment.
"I-it's...a-alright....t-thank y-you f-for...n-not reacting t-too..harshly..." Siglos said, flashing her a shaky smile. He remembered when he asked Sylvia about food once, vaguely recalling that she found fancy food intriguing.
Siglos hesitated trying to figure out how big he should make it.
(Out here asking the real questions)
"W-Well..." The woman thought for a moment, rubbing her chin.
“T-that…t-that sounds w-wonderful!” Siglos said excitedly, a wide, genuine smile forming on his face.
"My... aspiration?" Erebus repeated quietly. This was a question that has plagued his mind not too long ago. Back way then... back, from when he was with them. It took a while for him to give his answer, "I'm...... still finding it" he said, though the hound-shaped helmet was covering his face, melancholy is present deep within his tone of voice.: tired, drained, and sorrowful. He knows she may not care, he is a newcomer here, but it's not like he has no choice but to tell her that....
Siglos hesitated, his smile fading slightly.
Siglos blinked.
"W-Well, the f-forest surrounding Aegis has um... m-many wild beasts and magical creatures... They are v-very large, and uh... M-Many of them are h-hunted and eaten by the uh... local populace. Y-You may not have s-seen th-them though... since your... g-girlfriend may have scared them off..." She said with a chuckle.
"...I...I've...h-heard o-of t-them. b-but I...h-haven't s-seen m-many i-in p-person." Siglos said softly.
"S-Speaking of the V-Vaewolf, c-could you a-ask him t-to... not g-glare at me... and b-be so mean...? I-It m-makes it h-harder for me t-to work wh-when the c-customers... a-are... u-uncooperative, and I-I w-work a-alone, s-so..." The woman squirmed a bit, before just shaking her head.
Siglos hesitated.
