Robin couldn't help but laugh at the guild member who had given them directions. He knew that the Phantom Lords didn't exactly have a friendly reputation, and most of it for good reason, but the man's fear had seemed a little pathetic to him. Maybe it was just the guild's attitude rubbing off on him over the years. He followed Cyrile through to the guildmaster's office, and once there simply sat on a chair and listened as the two talked. It wasn't that he found the inter-guild politics behind it boring, quite the contrary in fact, but it was not his place to speak there. Had it been part of the mission he would have gladly joined in. But it wasn't, so he sat there and kept his mouth shut. He especially liked the part about them being able to fight back. Granted, the guildmaster had asked them not to damage the buildings, but so long as he fought outside everything should be fine. He could do with a little sparring after so little action over the past couple of weeks.

He enjoyed the small talk with Cyrile as they walked around the guild building, checking out the rooms they had been assigned along the way.
"Oh... it's about time for me to go feed Legion, you can come if you like," she said, glancing at a clock.
"Well, I haven't got anything better to do, so why not?" he replied, tagging along as they walked over to the stables. Whilst she was feeding the horse Robin had taken out a small sketchbook. He liked to draw anything that caught his eye, and Legion most certainly had. The drawings helped him clear his head and sometimes he was even able to sell them for a little extra cash, not that he really needed it.
"Have you ever ridden on a Phantom Horse?"
The question took him by surprise, and he snapped the book shut on a half finished drawing of Cyrile with Legion.
"You must be joking! The guildmaster himself told me he's never letting me have one, you can guess why, and to be honest I don't want one. I much prefer having my feet firmly on the ground." he said, hoping she hadn't seen the sketchbook. He didn't like people seeing his drawings before they were finished- it always made him feel that they were inadequate, even when completed.
