Session 119

Synopsis
==Summary==
Akaros approaches Esteem while he Broods and apologizes for his joke earlier, which upset Esteem. He then explains that dragon flight is mostly just magic rather than physical science. Esteem asks how Akaros is after having brought the remains of a companion back. Akaros is mostly okay, then asks if he thinks she can keep a secret. He then realizes that Belle was dead at the time, so it's probably okay. Esteem, unable to get any more information from him, drags Akaros outside to teach him how to fly. 
Teer fetches Kiono from talking to Sylmore to engage in picnic shenanigans. Sylmore is also invited out of politeness. Teer and Belle show off their new clothes. Teer gives the sequined poncho to Akaros, who immediately excuses himself without explanation. Teer gives Kiono a set of fuzzy pajamas and a fun shirt and cloak for Esteem. Belle also gives a skirt to Kiono before they break out the snack. Esteem and Kiono are both emotionally affected by the gifts. While they eat pastries, Kiono updates the party on what she found in Oceanside, as well as Sylmore's offer to provide a distraction or delay for them if they choose to intervene. 
Before making their preparations for Elizrae, Teer goes off in search of Akaros. He finds him at Life is Pain, speaking to Xelbari about "glam advice." Akaros pretends he isn't talking about fashion, and Xelbari ominously agrees to send The Pastries to him later. They return and make a plan for Elizrae, which boils down to beat her there, wreck everything they can, and defeat Elizrae if they have the resources when she arrives. Belxari allows them use of the Raquesval again. 
Kiono asks Akaros about what he's hiding about his time in Elizrae's demiplane, but the only thing he admits is that she didn't know he was there still when she left. Kiono asks what he is doing alone in a guest room, but he claims to be watching anime. She gives up and leaves, but uses her familiar to spy on him. He is trying on the poncho and comparing accessories for it. 
Teer goes to visit Evelyn, telling her that he had to go deal with Elizrae so if she wanted to meet Belle and the party, she would have to visit that night. Evelyn says that she thought she'd killed Elizrae back in the day. She says that she will be by that evening, implying that she would have some assistance in some capacity for Belle.
