When it got closer to the time of the actual ball and ceremony announcement the two had to stop their little game of picking back and forth. Though it was a good way to waste the time during the slow periods until then. Felix was more than happy to hear that things were underway, this meant they were due to be off soon. Seeing as they had the more boring task of keeping guard during the day hours when things were still being set up so there was nothing really to do aside from making sure only those who were suppose to be there were allowed in.

Both were in the normal guard attire, consisting of the kings colors. The outfit wasn't full armor bit plenty enough to protect any of the vital points. The only main difference between the two was size, seeing as the human was from the more northern region, and the weapons they had currently. Felix having a claymore while Thal stuck more with a standard duel blade. Though oddly this wasn't the weapons he normally used for combat.

Though the peace ended when the announcement was made and the group inside the room clapped. Hardly were either of them paying attention to the name. Like Thal had to worry about who was the new lead healer. His rank ensured he wouldn't have to deal with protecting or even being near someone of that rank. Though asking the few who were around Thalion commonly he probably kept the low rank on purpose just for reasons like that. He hated the thought of being put on guard duty for some noble or over ranked prick.

"All this fuss over nothing." Felix laughed shaking his head a little. Though Thal was still not really paying attention to who was walking about let alone to Felix. If he thought he could get away with leaving he damn well would. Being in crowded places like this was something he hardly enjoyed. Let alone in this outfit... There was nothing wrong with it in truth he just preferred his normal attire over this.

"Ah there you are!" Verdia said walking over to Thal with a bit of a grin on her face. "Been a while, I was almost enjoying the quiet." Though no response from Thal was only because clerics were held in high regard and if she put her mind to it she could end him into a heap of trouble. "Least your looking well, better than when you left. I was afraid I was going to hear a report that you killed yourself or something." She shrugged a little before looking towards Mizuki as he was busy with dealing with those who flocked around him. "Least your friend is doing well. I'll miss him if they send him off anywhere." she sighed a little.

That was right she had been hanging around at the castle because of the person being appointed head of healing. Of course it was Mizuki he knew that... who else would get such a rank so quickly and out of no where. Though the moment Thal looked at Mizuki he stopped paying attention to his sisters blabber. Well till she clicked her fingers in front of him. "You alright?" Of course he told her yeah it was nothing.

"Well if you insist... maybe we can talk once your off. You know mom would like to know from time to time your alive." Of course she brought up home, why not? He told her yeah, but now in all honestly he just wanted to be out of this room. Felix questioned Thal if he knew the new head of healing. He answered he did but it was a long time ago. It didn't matter now, after this unless there was a event they would never cross paths. He needed to stop letting himself get so caught up in his thoughts as he was. Maybe he could request a location change, than the odds of running into him were next to none.
