F-15, Javelin the High Priestess!

737
: "My old master said that hard work builds character, preferably ten to twelve hours of it per day." The homunculus picked up a ground beef sandwich and gave it a thoughtful bite. Not objectionable, he decided.

: "He would then usually rant about Revivians. These rants were quite lengthy and repetitive, so I will not attempt to recreate them here."

738
: "The group called "Team 6" did have a distinctly Revivian air about them, Miss Wander. If you pardon me for saying so."

739
: "For what it's worth, I did try for the name Team 6. Unfortunately it was already taken."

: "...Should I take Miss Wander's current state to mean that I choose a poor name?"

740
42-1 eyed the "burger". Some sort of ground-beef sandwich, it seemed. Harmless enough.

: "Oh yes, that was indeed one of the requirements for registration. As I was concerned that the discussion regarding names might extend past the deadline to register plus the matter appeared to have been abandoned in favor of food, I took it upon myself to supply a name to the guild."

The butler was quite proud of himself for the accomplishment, minor though it was. Perhaps this was why the humans in the group seemed so eager to provide himself with a name. Perhaps he would have to give the matter some genuine thought.  For the moment however, he handed out the slips of parchment to everyone present.

: "We are now proud members of Team F."

741
42-1 took the slips of parchment with a bow and turned from the counter, seeking his companions. He soon found several of them at some sort of dining establishment.

: "Greetings sirs and madams, I come bearing good news. We are now registered in the wyvern race."

742
Fortunately, 42 was literate thanks to being ordered to transcribe Old Master's notes/ramblings often enough. He signed the forms, filling out everything he knew to the best of his ability.

: "This wall looks to be crumbling away. I bet we could break it down and have a straight shot at the next room." With that, Gregor thrust his lance into a likely crevice and used the weapon as a pry bar, working masonry loose.

G-19, attack the wall.

744
: Out of my way, little kittens!

I-15, claw at Elite Cat E!

745
On the one hand, the homunculus wasn't the leader of his strange party and probably had no authority. On the other hand, his companions were far too obsessed about names for their own good, and 42-1 estimated a chance in excess of 22% that the argument over what to call the racing team would continue past the point that the race begun. Perhaps they would appreciate a show of initiative.

: "Yes. Team F is our team name."

746
: "My apologies sir, but I was under the impression that this was simply for wyvern race team designations. Did I perhaps miss something?"

747
42 was flummoxed. Why in Generia would a team that wasn't the sixth team call themselves Team 6? How did that make any sense at all, even for Revivians?

: "I...I see. Perhaps "Team F" would be suitable. Is that one taken?"

748
42-1 was struck with...not inspiration, exactly, but a way to resolve the ongoing dilemma. The homunculus slipped away to the counter where registrations were taking place.

: "Pardon me. I am with Miss Wander's group, and I came to register a team for the wyvern races. If I may ask, how many teams are already registered?"
"There are currently five other adventurer teams registered. Is Miss Wander that Revivian lady, young man?"

: "Yes, Miss Wander is the Revivian with blonde hair and green outfit." Although apparently her name wasn't actually Wander, but that wasn't relevant at the moment. "Could you register us as Team 6?"

749
42-1 was struck with...not inspiration, exactly, but a way to resolve the ongoing dilemma. The homunculus slipped away to the counter where registrations were taking place.

: "Pardon me. I am with Miss Wander's group, and I came to register a team for the wyvern races. If I may ask, how many teams are already registered?"

750
: "If I may satisfy my curiosity, why do the race organizers pay people, who might not have any experience, to race? I would have thought that it would be the other way around."
