Mrs. Wendelworth was quite pleased to hear and see, Caius patience and kindness. She chuckled lowly but shook her head all the same. For while the gesture was sweet, they wanted to get Sarah out into the world, expand her horizons. That in truth was really what this was all about, a plan in which several parties came together. "Worry not, young man~ My husband and I have this all sorted."
This same party, the 'culprits', planned the photo and thus, Claire's fingerprints were all over this too. Sarah then just went along with it because it'd make the kids happy and it seemed fun. Which in fact, was all it was meant to be. However, photos had an aftereffect in that they were meant to be shared. In that regards, it was only a matter of time before some key people in Caius' life would see this photo. Alas, a tale for another time.
Letting the first few verses of the song commence, Sarah had gained an idea of the kind of song this was. In turn, she began to play on her lute estimating the tempo as it was sung. The kids chimed in, singing in tandem and it was quite a fun song indeed. All fun things did come to an end, of course. For Mrs. Wendelworth was quite serious about her instructions for the matter. There was much to do and Mr. Wendelworth would be coming by with a large carriage. Before they left, the kids did clap and cheer before being ushered to run along. Life seemed to cool as the room became empty, mostly. Mog was around floating in a corner, easily overlooked.
"You must have frequented a lot of taverns~?" Sarah mused aloud once there was some peace. She then revealed a purple magic crystal connected to a small chain. "This has to be my favourite crystal so far, have a look." it faintly glowed in her left hand as she carefully took the bouquet from her side and moved it close. With a flash of dim light, the bouquet vanished; leaving the crystal to take on a red aura before fading to normal.
"This one's a storage crystal, it's so nice to be able to take my lute with me without being incumbered." she explained before allowing the lute in her lap to be stored away next. "I'd love to see the other kinds but they're quite expensive."

It seemed like there was a moment of shared curiosity that was reserved for later. One where they could speak about crystals in their respective worlds. First, there was a budding fan club that put Claire's own antics in this event to shame. Maybe the kids had rubbed off on Claire even but whatever the case, they were quite enthusiastic. "This is the children's last day here but it's not a sad day. They're moving to a much bigger building, in a nicer part of Torensten. This is thanks to Claire's twin sister, she is very mature for her age. You can actually tell the difference between them if you're looking." Sarah stated, unable to help rambling just a bit.
"Let's take the picture first, then I'll play a song." Sarah announced but was soon followed up with the door opening. There was Mog and Mrs. Wendelworth, seemingly right on time.
"After which, you'll all make sure to pack up the last of your things, without delay." Mrs. Wendelworth spoke, with much more authority on the matter. The collective 'Awwwwww' seemed to be buffeted as she approached Caius for a moment. "I do appreciate you entertaining the whims of the little ones, even for a moment but don't let them keep you for too long." she'd note in a softer voice, far less stern. Dare say, even she was excited about all this, judging by her knowing chuckle.
She gathered the kids towards the door, so that they'd be able to leave promptly. Mog then if Caius looked over to him, had a camera between his hands. Sarah would gesture Caius come over to the wall opposite of the door, as there was a simple painting of Torensten hung up, along with some choice furnishings. She would hold up the flowers inbetween them and Mog would take the picture in kind. There was a brief chime, as if something struck ice or a crystal. The flash of this camera wasn't blinding like normal, there was a gentle light, magical in nature and it was quick enough to not disorient.
With the commemoration marked, Sarah looked to Caius and made a fun inquiry, "You wouldn't happen to know any local songs, Caius? I've picked up quite a few but I haven't been in Torensten very long. I've been having fun memorising them and adapting it to my lute."[b/] just the mention of the instrument caused a young lad to rush over to the other side of the room and fetch the lute for Sarah. "Thank you very much, Peter." standing with her lute, she looked at Caius expectantly, though it was fine if he wasn't familiar. She merely thought it'd be fun to do part of this activity together.

"Oh, I've heard of them, thank you for your hard work, sir~" how nice to have a fan, except it was looking like more than one fan, as just hearing the name had sparked curiosity among many. Some of the older ones did seem to hear about the Dragonblades all the same. What really turned the entire group into fans, was the reveal of the bouquet of flowers. The girls swooned and the boys rolled their eyes a bit. Sarah was quite surprised, offering a warm smile as she accepted them in kind.
"Thank you, Caius." she began, "The crystals here are different from back home. It's hard to imagine them being so plentiful." she'd admit before the boisterous children spoke up, strangely in unison, "So, does this mean you two are going to leave for now? We didn't get to hear one last song from Big Sis..."
Sarah didn't seem to mind, as if this always happened at the prospect of her leaving for just a short while. Ordinarily, Claire was here, so she could in fact do that with some distraction. Today was different and she turned to look to Caius with a slightly apologetic look. "I'll leave this decision to you, Caius. I tend to spoil them sometimes." It was hard not to, given the puppy dog eyes all directed at Caius now. To think Claire had not only found an orphanage but volunteered here, choosing to do something good in lieu of an awful prank.
"You should take a picture before you go, for good luck and to remember our time here." the redhead spoke up, clearly caught up in the whole romantic affair of this. The murmurings that came forth after this was proposed seem to come to a concession. A quick glance around the room then, revealed it was cozy and there were some sparse comforts. Much better than outside the room and certainly better than taking a picture of the outside of the building.
Sarah meanwhile crouched down so that the girls could take a look at the flowers up close. An environment like this suited Sarah, even if her regal air had been noted. Zephon had a way of...amplifying certain traits and suppressing or making other traits more humble.

Regarding Mog's response to the quip of being the one on the date. At first the moogle seemed a bit confused, before his red pom shot upwards and a chuckle came forth.
"I'm just your entourage, I have to look as good as the man on the date, kupo." a sly response indeed~
Fortunately for Torensten and Caius, there would be no disaster this evening. What awaited beyond those doors was a small group of children, a surprisingly equal amount of boys and girls, sitting along sets of plush pillows in a circular pattern. Boys on the left, girls on the right, encircling a single figure. A young woman was sat upon a rather comfortable chair. Her attire did not look as if she was part of this establishment in the least. She was surprisingly immaculate, garbed in a lovely headdress that was two toned. One part a proper white, the other part tinted sage green. The veil that flowed down, cascaded with the platinum blonde wavy hair to her lower back. At the centre piece of the headdress was a decorative emblem, sporting horns with ruby beads accentuating it.
Soft hazel eyes were once downcast to focus upon the children, soon gazed upwards to the door. A soft gasp of surprise, likely muffled out by the sound of the children's cheers. "Big Sis' date is here, yay~" to which, by the time Caius was properly inside; the little rascals were up on their feet and running towards the mercenary. Ready to crowd him, just as they gathered around the figure prior.
"You're very handsome, mister~ Do you work for the guards? Are you a Knight?!" one girl asked, she looked about twelve, with dark red hair, tied into pigtails and freckles across her face. None of the children's garb was shabby, despite the buildings looks. Their clothes were clean and seemingly of high quality but not in comparison to the young woman they had gathered around prior.
"Children, please. I'm sorry about this, they insisted on seeing you. You're Caius, I presume?" slowly the young lady stood up from her chair. The sage green gown she wore flowed gracefully with her movements as she slowly approached. The children moved to the side, to allow her to come closer.
"My name is Sarah, pleasure to make your acquaintance at last. Claire has told me a lot about you." she offered him a proper curtsey, even if it wasn't necessary.
