Ladylike went out the door as Eiko dove into her own cake. Mother would never let her start off a meal with sweets! At least she remembered to only talk between bites, although everything was being punctuated by her fork being waved around like a smart silk banner.
"Yep. I really like her. And I talked to her dad too. He's nice. But he says Terra won't summon him." That bothered the child and it reflected in her face. Some of the nuances behind the grown-ups behavior puzzled her mightily, and this was one of those cases. After an uncharacteristically quiet pause, she finally answered Garnet's first question. "I think it does. He looked like an old guy, but Rydia says he's like a father to her, and king of their eidolons. I liked him. So, we painted him like that on the Eidolon Wall too."
She and Rydia had actually spent quite some time painting new eidolons on the walls, including her Mog. Even with her eidolon form with her at all times, Eiko missed her best friend since birth. Putting down her fork, she picked up her teacup and took a sip, before staring into it hard. Some things were just too hard to talk about, and she was determined to be a lady and not cry like a little kid.
