She let a soft little sigh; she'd just have to deal with this just like anything else. When someone has a dream there's no way you can talk them out of it and she respected that. Of course she thought that every pae's dream, no matter if it was fleeting or not, was to one day become an Elder, but he was far more determined than any other pae she'd run into. There was another soft little sigh before she decided to say anything. "Well we can at least enjoy our time while we can. No sense moping about it is there? We have all the time in the world to figure things out. Besides you'll make a great Elder."
((Fwee! Maybe all this will spur Fre into thinking more seriously about being an Elder as well...Hmm...))

He nodded slightly, picking up a sandwhich. "Thank you." Raken took a bite. "I certainly hope so..."

She ran a hand through her hair as she set down her sandwich. Suddenly she just didn't feel very hungry. Fre actually hadn't given much thought to being an Elder and it seemed that his entire life had been devoted to it. It almost made her feel like she had wasted her life. Maybe she had, she spent most of her time either with Mouse or out in the woods exploring and getting things. Honestly she didn't know but it gave her a knot in her stomach to think about it. "Well after all, up until we met, it seems that all your time was dedicated to this. If they don't make you an Elder then it's a real shame."

"I may be dedicated...but I may also be deemed unworthy." He responded softly, a hint of saddness woven in the words. He might train everyday, trying desperatly to manage a power he should have already had control on. But even he had to admit that when it came to personality, he lacked it greatly

"Why would they deem you unworthy?" Fre didn't really understand the Elder process. She wasn't sure how they picked you, how they decided you were worthy, or even the process you went through to become an Elder. Of course she'd never communicate this to him; just because she wasn't intelligent in the ways of the pae didn't mean she was stupid and she didn't want him to think that.

"It just makes sense. The gaurdians and elders have a specific list of requirements that must be met. That I have been picked as a possible canidate means that I have only met the bare minimum. Now they shall be looking into the pae's actual personality, seeing what they are like." That...was pretty much all that he knew on the matter. He had looked up many a book for more but...this was it.

"'I wonder what they'll find..." Fre thought outloud. It had more been a comment to herself, wondering what they'd find on her if she were ever considered. She really didn't think she was Elder material, but Raken really was. It really would be a shame if all his hard work didn't pay off. "I wouldn't worry too much though. You've worked so hard for this that I'm sure they'll see how dedicated and how serious you are about it and they'll make you an Elder."

He shrugged and cut the pie, simply wanting something to do. "But I mustn't get my hopes up. It is illogical when being let down is to probable." He freed a slice and put it on a paper plate, offering it to Fre.

She took the pie from him with a smile but when she turned to look at it she began to frown. It was stupid; all of her life she'd been living with Mouse and learning things that were useful and practical, like cooking, and herb gardening, and how to survive in the woods. Never once had she questioned that maybe there was something more than just that; that maybe she was something more.
The thought upset her greatly. Suddenly being in Raken's company was like trying for first place but ending up last. It seemed that every pae she met knew their power and was profficient in using it, even the babies! She had completely wasted her time.
With that she picked a piecce of her pie off and stuck it in her mouth.

Raken cut his own slice and took a small bite. Though he was worry about not having the proper personality for Elder, that wasn't it. True, he trained just about every day but he had only gained the respect of about half of the creatures he could make. What was disheartening was that he had also been training for months now and this was all he had gotten. He wasn't worthy of the title Elder.

Sighing, Fre decided to break the uneasy silence between them. It didn't honestly matter right now; though her mind was filled with thoughts about it she tried to get away from them, there was more time to be upset about them when she was alone. Slowly she leaned her head on his shoulder and looked out over the lake.
"Raken," she murmered softly, "whatever happens will happen, okay? And I'll be right here through it."

OOC: o.o now I'm scared XD
BIC: RRRAAAAKKKKEEEEENNNN!!!! eek He froze, disbelief slowly appearing on his face "no...it can't be." RAKEN! I know that you're around here somewhere! Dayht and Niday miss you!!! my apologize but...he sat down the slice of pie and stood before forming the dark orb in him. As soon as the horse appeared he was on it's back, riding as fast as possible away. Soon tartara popped into veiw, a light frown on her breath-taking face. "Where is he..."
