Novel Bin Chapter 535 Totally Drooling
Xena nodded in agreement. "It is possible that the root of the issue is that Cancer is feeling insecure in her position and capabilities. No one wants to feel like they are inadequate and unable to do their job properly, especially when it comes to protecting those they care about. It might be helpful for both of you to talk about these feelings and try to address them head-on instead of letting them fester and turn into something more destructive."
I thought about what they had said for a moment, nodding my head slowly as I did. They had a point, but I could understand why Cancer would be feeling like she had to do this now. The only way I was going to get to the bottom of this was by talking with her, but I had some stuff to do already.
"You\'re right. I\'ll talk to her when I get back, and we can hopefully resolve some of these issues. I just hope that she will be willing to open up and let me in," I said, and Tallia smiled sadly.
"You two are both going through a lot right now, but if you want to mend things between you, then communication is key," Tallia said before standing up and coming to give me a long kiss. "Now, if you\'ll excuse us, the girls and I have some business to attend to, and the sun is almost down. Do not forget to change into something nice for Titania."
I nodded and stood up as well, thanking both Xena and Fate before heading out. I was still surprised at the answers they gave me, but they were both a testament to Tallia\'s amazingness and tenacity to hold firm to what she believed. I could take a few pages from her book, but I was me, and that was what made me love her so much.
Opening a portal back to my Astral Island, I stepped into my massive walk-in closet, but it was set up like a department store but with no price tags. Typically, I created my own clothing, but I never really took complete control of the creation. Sometimes that would leave me with fascinating and unique clothing, and there was also the stuff that the girls liked that I made or they made for me. Capricorn was always making me new suits that she would come here to replace when I wasn\'t home, and the other women would do the same over the countless years.
Needless to say, I had a massive wardrobe that was set up like a warehouse department store with eight levels, but there were also special sections that went to other dimensions that were more specific stores like Stinging Dress Shoes, Scorpio\'s shop, or Capricorn\'s Closet. The store was filled with suits, ties, and bowties of all sorts of colors and styles. They were all hand-made by Capricorn, so they were all high-quality pieces that could be used for centuries if handled the right way.
Before I started to look, I wanted to see Eliza, so I opened a small portal. She was on the other side, but her eyes were closed, and she was resting on one of my hammocks.
"Hey," I said, and she jumped up, her face turning pale when she saw me.
"Oh! Galio, I didn\'t expect you to be here so soon!" She squealed, and I chuckled, sticking my head through to kiss her.
"I thought I would come to check on you. Are you okay?" I asked, and she smiled a little before nodding.
"Yes, I\'m alright. I came here to relax a little and take a break. The other girls are down below sleeping, but we have been swimming in your jello pool for like three hours," Eliza said and then groaned. "No more jello for me for like three years!"
"You say that, but it will always taste great, and you will never get sick of it or gain any weight from eating it, haha! It is just for fun. Just remember to eat fruit or pick some steaks from the trees and fry them over a fire," I explained, and Eliza blinked at me.
"You can really eat them?! I thought there were some... I really didn\'t know what to think, but it would be amazing if we could really eat them!" she exclaimed, and I chuckled, but then she looked around me. "Is that a store behind you?! How is it so huge?!"
"This is my walk-in closet... what are you doing?" I asked as Eliza started to try to crawl through the portal just big enough to fit our heads, though.
"I have to see this!" Eliza cheered as I opened the portal so she could squeeze through. "What in Tallia is this place?! This can\'t be your closet! This is bigger than any store that I have ever seen! This place is bigger than the theater in Northwall!"
"It has 7 more floors and many other smaller stores. I made it this way so it would be more fun picking out my clothing. Some of the Zodiacs have their own shops that they stock, so this place has a little of everything," I explained, and Eliza just ran off and started to pick up a shirt that was flooded.
"This fabric is amazing!" Eliza said as she put the shirt down and picked up another, but as she did, the previous shirt folded itself and then slid back into place. "What?! Your clothing even refolds itself?!"
"You noticed! Yes, I have trouble keeping track of my clothing, so I had some of the other gods craft a spell that would make all of my clothing fold itself after I put it down," I said with a smirk. Eliza just stared at me in shock and awe before clapping her hands and squealing.
"That\'s amazing! I\'m totally drooling over here!" she exclaimed, then started to run around the store, picking up more articles of clothing, showing me, and exclaiming how beautiful they were. I laughed and watched her as she explored, but after a short while, she stopped and then looked at me. "What did you come here for? It wasn\'t to watch me run around, right?"
