The next morning dawns on the still nameless guild, ushered in via the morning cries of various dodrio from the pokemon racing ranch in town. In the guild's garden out back, Sariah is currently tending to the few precious spots where they can plant berries. All four little clumps of dirt are ready to take in new seeds, so to speak. She pulls out two berries from her hand and plants them next to the single oran berry that someone must have planted yesterday.
She heads back inside and meets up with Farina where the two begin to sort out today's paperwork.
As you wake up, you'll notice a rather large piece of paper has been posted to the inside of the door letting everyone know that they should meet in the main hall to discuss how daily life in the guild will play out (roughly) and it also says that their pokemon are ready, along with a few new possible partners.

Falon had woken up pretty early to do some combat training and some *gasp* meditation, out in the garden, away from the plants (for as much as that was possible) so as not to... burn them to a cinder... which totally hasn't happened before, no siree... not at all... too often...
After he is done with that, he heads to the main hall, greeting those there in an overly cheerful and energetic manner for that early in the morning.

Nette stirs slowly awake with a big yawn. Yesterday had been a bit late but fun! She had learned about so many new pokemon-in-the-sky and about the giant evergreens. Now that was something she would like to see some day! When she saw the posted notice she quickly snapped back awake and hurried down to the main hall; she couldn't wait to pick up her Mawile again!

Olivier stirs with all the grace of a dying bird sprawled upon the earth. The sheets were in an odd disarray; some of them on the floor, and others pulled and scrunched up towards his neck. Small white flecks of drool tinted his cheeks.
"Mrhrhrrrmmm... MRAWGH!" He swung up sharply, throwing the bed out of whack and tossing his hair to the wind in a chaotic shimmering fall of gold and silver tinges. "Mrraaaaw..." He says to no one in particular, stumbling to the water basin to wash his face.
Olivier was not a morning person.
He stared down at his ring finger dumbly, not quite remembering when he had gotten such a lovely little bauble. But wait! That was yesterday! The glimmering shininess of it caught his eye and he smiled broadly. Right! The Guild! He had joined a Guild after such a long time of searching! Then, they went on adventure! Then he caught a rat thing! AND THEN! He... Well, he thought he looked at the stars while talking to a tree. Something like that. But ooh, shiny!
After he had spent ample enough time prepping himself for the day, he perked up once more. Aha! There was now time with friends in a strange new land. Adventures in foreign fields! What wonders! He slung his pack about him and tramped into the hall.
"Goood morning all! I trust you slept well?"

After waking up at the crack of dawn (this usually happened) in a room he certainly did not remember going to sleep in (this did not), Helios wanders out to the garden, wondering what happened last night. And why did he hurt all over? It seemed almost like he had a sunburn, complete with reddened skin, but he hadn't gotten those since his magic developed...
After monitoring Sariah planting the berries (and correcting her when she did it "wrong," those berries had to be spaced just right facing the sun, not too deep but not too shallow either...), he wanders into the main hall with the rest of the members of his new guild.

Nithia wakes up with a nice loud yaaaaaaaaaaawn, stretching and squeaking as she does so. She gets dressed very slowly, ploddingly putting on her robes, caaaaaaarefully choosing the exact right sequence of rings and jewelry, then slowly walk out into the main room. When she gets there, she rubs her tired eyes and does another loooooooooong stretch, accompanying it with a squeaky yawn. She quietly greats everyone in the room with a mumbled "Mooooorn...mphm."

Henry had gone to bed fairly early, and thus had been fairly early to rise, getting in a bit of archery practice outside using a nearby post. Hopefully no one minded the hole in it. After his early morning workout, he'd taken his time getting ready, making sure he looked his best, and that his hat was extra fancy. He'd had to brush some dirt out of it after yesterday's adventures, a little annoyed that part of the brim had been singed by that unseen opponent. For now, he kept that part of the brim towards the side, where hopefully it wouldn't draw so much attention.
He made his way to the main hall, nodding to everyone as he made his way in. Today would be exciting as well. What would it hold? Pokemon hunting? Item gathering? Mapping a new dungeon? The options were so exciting he could barely contain himself!

Bee has been knocking about for a little while, but mostly just in her room. She's another one of those irritating morning people - habits from a small village she never quite shook off. She's tying that red bandanna of hers around her neck as she walks into the main hall. The ring Nithia gave her last night, with the silver and gold bands, glitters on her finger.
"Oh, wow, is everybody here already? G'morning!" She grins around the room. "Geez, now you're all gonna think I'm lazy..."

As Nithia trudges into the room, Helios confronts her.
"You! What did you do? Last I remember you were asking me a question, and then I'm waking up the next morning all burned!"
As he moves, his robes rub against his burnt skin once more, causing him to flinch, though he is beginning to get used to the chafing by now. It's certainly annoying, but it wouldn't significantly detract from his performance in the field, unless you count the increased number of complaints...

Nithia doesn't seem to even register Helios, blinking tiredly and tilting her head. "I'm sorry, Nithia isn't here at the moment. Please try again after the beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep...." As she says this she collapses into a chair and closes her eyes, resting.

Pinching the bridge of his nose with a sigh, Helios gives up. This weird little elf was back in her cloud-cuckooland. It's clear he's not getting anything useful out of her on purpose.
He resolves to stay away from her in the future, if possible. Though somewhere in the back of his mind, he keeps recalling the look of her eyes as she stared up at him last night...

"GOOOOOOOD MORNING EVERYONE~" Farina excited yells as she stretches and greets the guild members once they've all made their way into the hall. "We've got a lot of things to do, but first things first. You guys passed your first mission yesterday, so we've earned the right to name our guild! Normally that right goes to me as guild leader but I could use some help in coming up with something... memorable." "She's trying to say that she's terrible at coming up with names!" "AHEM~ Thank you Sariah, you can go grab their pokeballs from the office please~" Farina's face shows simultaneous embarrassment and playful annoyance. "So how about we get started on the name and then we'll move on to the next order of business?"

After his leisurely walk around town the previous day, Merit Sol awoke fully rested and ready to tackle the day. Since he was up fairly early, the combat medic took some time to check his equipment for damage, and he restocked his first aid kit. A good third of his balms and bandages had been used on Henry after they were attacked by the Murkrow swarm, and his tools still needed proper sanitizing. Once everything was in order, he went to leave his room when he saw the message to meet in the main hall attached to the door. "Potential new partners?" he murmured happily to himself, his hands running through his currently messy hair. "That's something to look forward to."
Merit arrives in the hall just in time to see an extremely red-skinned Helios confronting Nithia about his burns and his following exasperation. Giving a brief "Good morning," to the other gathered guild members, he digs into his first aid kit and pulls out a small, inconspicuous vial. With it in hand, he approaches Helios. "Those burns look uncomfortable. Here's a burn-soothing balm; it won't heal your skin, but it will help with the pain and the chafing until it heals naturally."
A short while later, Farina and Sariah walk in and begin the meeting. "You need help deciding the guild name?" Merit made a thoughtful expression. "What are some of the other guilds out there? Getting inspiration from others is always a good place to start."

Falon thinks for the usual amount of time it takes him to decide on anything (that is to say, .3 seconds) before blurting out: "Torchlit!" a huge grin on his face.

"OOooh! How about Guild Farina, after our fearless leader!~" Olivier explained, hardly able to keep his seat. He was going to suggest Team Pokepals, but that one seemed kind of silly!

"Huh... I don't know any of the other guilds around here except Orion." Bee smiles sheepishly. "I gotta take more of a look around town later, I guess. Hm... 'Torchlit' sounds an awful lot like you're going for 'Falon and the Falonettes', you know."
She drums her fingers on the table, trying to think. "It oughta be something simple and easy to remember. If it's a really long name nobody's gonna call us by it 'cause nobody will be able to remember. And they'll probably give us a silly nickname on top of it. Hmm... we could name it after a famous explorer?"

Falon looks mildly puzzled at Bee's remark, but shakes his head vehemently. "No, it makes sense. A torch is a source of light, right? Keeping the darkness of the world at bay, y'see? Shedding light on mysteries, warding of the shadows, scaring away the monsters. Isn't that what an explorers guild is all about?"

"... Okay, you convinced me." Bee looks a little surprised that he came up with that reasoning so fast, but at least it isn't just "I have fire magic let's name the guild after me" like she'd half expected. "Still think we should name it after an explorer, though. Maybe after Farina, like Olivier said. I mean, it is her guild."

Nithia yawns tiredly and collapses onto the table, resting her eyes. Lazily, she opens one to look at be with a sleepy grin on her face. "Well... You're Bee, right? We could be... the Bee Swarm~!"
