Raising the teapot and pouring the new member a cup, the odd yellow hue of the drink right away threw you off, you didn't think they served anything except black tea.
"Well, drink up." Saying that and staring straight at the blond, Abbacchio spoke once more his tone of voice was light as though he was waiting for something to happen. "How old are you?"
"Fifteen."
Standing up from his spot Narancia raised a brow, his demeanor right away gave off a prideful feeling even if it was for a silly reason. "Fifteen? Ha, you're two years younger than me."
Giorno merely just waved off the comment returning his gaze towards the cup before him, "Thank you for the tea." Gripping the handle of the cup and raising it up as if to take a sip he paused, a look of realization flashed over his features and the others merely waited.
You still were unsure of what the others did, but by the colour of the tea and how the boy beside you froze, you could only assume the worst.
Catching sight of the blond pausing before taking a sip the pale haired man raised a brow, his tone of voice was almost taunting and in a way also sounded provoking "What's wrong? You just thanked me for the tea that I so generously poured for you. Since you already thanked me for it, you'll just have to drink it. Or do you not want to drink it since it's very hot?"
Turning your attention to the side you caught sight of Narancia holding in a laugh as well as Fugo, the strawberry blond holding his laughter in much better than the ravenette, while Mista on the other hand appeared smug. "Maybe he doesn't want to drink it because he doesn't want to be one of us." Bruno walked back in just after Mista spoke staring at the group with a hand on his hip.

"What are you all doing?" The tone of voice used was defensive, the man looming just behind Giorno's chair. His eyes scanned the table residence as if to pry whatever they had planned from them.
Giorno, in response to Bruno's arrival shifted in place sparing a glance towards the man, "It's nothing. He went to the trouble of pouring this tea for me." Simply saying that he then raised the cup up to his lips downing the whole thing.
You could only shudder at the thought of what was actually in the cup.
"Gross! He actually drank it!" Still on his feet Narancia's expression held a disgusted look all the while pointing towards the now empty cup, the others also gave their own respective reactions as well.
"D-Dude, you're hilarious! Did you seriously drink it?" Leaning over the table and pointing at the blond Mista let out a laugh, this new guy was surely going to be an interesting addition to the team.
"No, there's no way he could have! Hey, how'd you do it? Where'd you hide it?" Resting his hands onto the table and leaning forward Fugo stared at Giorno in disbelief, he couldn't pick up on any trickery thus there must've been something else he had failed to account for.
"Hey, come on. Just tell me! Okay?" Urging Giorno to spill his secret the blond only gave a knowing look, almost like the whole ordeal was nothing.
"Who knows? You're all keeping your abilities a secret too, aren't you?" Choking on the piece of cake you had just continued eating your brows raised towards what he's said. You weren't prepared for how quickly the conversation had shifted yet also taking that into consideration you could only assume Giorno was also a stand user, leading to his statment.
The others also came to that conclusion as well rapid firing questions at the blond about what his ability was and how it worked.
"Man, you guys are weird." Muttering that to yourself and shaking your head a sigh followed, you could tell that most of them would get along fine. The group itself when first meeting feels hostile and enclosed but right after it's almost as though everyone could've been childhood friends.

"Quit screwing around. We're going out." Announcing that Bruno's blue hues trailed over the lot, his tone of voice held an edge to it and there was more to be said once everyone got moving.
"Huh? Where?" Hearing Narancia ask that the teams leader merely turned back towards the entrance way stepping towards it, "Follow me and you'll find out. Hurry it up."
Getting up rather quickly after the man left, Giorno began following, only stopping briefly as you popped into his peripheral, falling into step beside him. "Hey sorry about Abbacchio, he's not the er nicest of the group." Saying that softly as to avoid the man in question hearing you, you added on, "If it's any consolation he did hit me in the face with a door when I joined the team."
A slight laugh left him upon hearing that, Abbacchio did seem like that kind of person. "No need to apologize, everything seemed to work out." Saying that in response he turned his attention to the man currently leading the group. Both of you walked in silence with the others, listening in to the citizens giving a wave or thanking Bruno for something.
"Hey, what are we going to do about a car?" Asking that from the middle of the group Fugo briefly threw his gaze around counting each person in his head before Bruno answered simply.
"We got a loaner. Since a certain someone destroyed our last one." Knowing who the comment was focused on you could only hold in a snicker peering back towards Mista who grumbled under his breath.
"Wonder who could've done that..." Trailing off absentmindedly you felt someone step on the back of your shoes causing you to stumble almost falling forward had the blond beside you not caught your shoulder. Your eyes drifted back narrowing into a glare at the gunslinger who merely looked off to the side innocently.
Piece of shit.
Watching the interaction from beside you Giorno could only smile softly, he didn't really know you as long as the others but it seemed like you were quite friendly with everyone and had interesting chemistry with the group. But he was also curious about what you did for the group seeing as you were the only girl and it didn't seem like you were quite suited for the mafia life.
That was just his first opinion of you though, he had yet to see any of that for his own eyes.
Loading into the loaner vehicle and driving to whatever the destination was everyone quickly stepped out taking note that they were by a marina, sail boats floated along the water and the group neared a building.
"We're going cruising on a yacht? That's awesome!" Exclaiming that Narancia grinned brightly, he seemed very excited to ride on one.
"When did you buy a yacht?" Inquiring that towards the dark haired man Abbacchio raised a brow in question.
Turned his head towards a desk inside the building Bruno responded,"We're renting one." At that Narancia's excitement quickly diminished, taking in the new information that it was going to be nothing but a simple rental.
"Say, Bucciarati...whatever you do, please don't rent the one with the number 4. It'll sink. I just know it." Rolling your eyes at Mista's comment you leaned against the buildings outer wall just beside the doorway.
"Come on Mista, if it was going to sink then why's it still floating over there?" Calling that out and pointing towards the boat you pursed your lips watching his head snap towards where you stood.
"Shut up! I just know it's bad!"

John Thomson is a regular college student, the kind of average person you cross on the street every day. Or at least that’s what most people assume, because he’s far from what’s considered “normal”. After all, a normal person isn’t regularly dragged into life-threatening tribulations involving fantastic creatures, otherworldly beings and people with logic-defying superpowers. Not to mention that he seems to have a knack for sticking his nose into the nefarious plans of secret societies and ancient cults. But John’s life wasn’t always such a mess: Everything began when he accidentally invented a way to rewind time… Weekly Schedule: At least a ~3.5k words chapter every Wednesday and Sunday.

8 227The Elder of Mediocrity
In a world of cultivators, psykers, mages, witches, conspiracies and a Cold War, everything is extraordinary. Well, most everything. Oz “Da Shan” Elderweiss is just your average guy in a not average world. He’s not that strong, he’s not that weak — and he’s not getting any better. Da Shan discovers that you’re never too old to have your own coming of age saga. Filled with a burning desire for revenge, but the inability to carry it out, he hatches an insane scheme to change his potential and achieve exponential growth. But his enemies are quite literally the members of his own household and his close friends. He must fight tooth and nail for what he believes in and for the freedom to carve his own path. Join him as he battles people with both the best and worst intentions, with his life on the line. Current Word Count: 136 000, First arc complete. A lot of new content has been added to the early chapters since the end of May. The first chapters are still under construction and editing, but all the major changes are done. I was a webnovel junkie for a long time, but I found it hard to find novels with solid characters, decent plot, philosophical underpinnings and a fully painted world to keep me going. I've taken from every genre I've liked to make a story that satisfies my own cravings for a good story. If you like the story or have suggestions please leave a comment or review. I hope this novel is fun, provocative but above all fun. Enjoy. Yours truly, James Paul Addington PS I will release at least two chapters a week, or one really long chapter. Concerning the tags: The story is primarily Fantasy with Wuxia influence in some elements. Romance won't happen for the first two arcs or so (roughly 40 chapters), I want to build the world before I do that. Tragedy is because of an event that occurs in the book, not the tone of the book. The book is more lighthearted. Slice of Life doesn't occur till the third arc (the romance happens during that arc as well). Magic will also show up more in later arcs, but appears throughout. Reincarnation it's not a reincarnation like in the traditional sense, but it has a similar concept.
