Having an almost inhuman sense of hearing and smell came with it's ups and downs. Whenever someone entered the building, Irene Goeldhuntras could almost immediately recognize who it was unless they were concealing presence or she didn't know them. The downside is that her ears and nose are extremely sensitive to catastrophic noises and odors.
Yawning in unconcealed boredom, Irene felt for her book. Coming in contact with the Braille covered book, she flipped open to the first page. The sounds of the usual brawling filling the Guild air didn't go on deaf ears as Irene tried to read her book.
"Keep it down, I'm trying to read over 'ere!"

From under a pile of his guild-mates consisting of Elfman, Max, Jet, Droy, and even Cana (with the exception of Gajeel standing off on the side), Natsu glanced over at Irene. He always thought those books were weird. They had no words or pictures, just... dots. Pushing the random thought aside, he grinned.
"Why don't-cha join in, then?"

Irene merely rolled her sightless eyes at Natsu's response. She wasn't one for pointless fights, and even if she was she'd merely be stumbling around blindly. Besides, her book was one of her favorites, not that she'd admit it of course. Turning pointedly in his general direction, Irene raised an eyebrow.
"I don't do stupid things like you, also you smell even more burnt than usual. Did you roll in a dying fire or something?"

"Well, fine then."
As soon as he finished his sentence, he got knocked to the other side of the building by Gajeel, causing even more of a brawl within the guild. (Not that he was complaining, it just wouldn't feel right otherwise!)
After a few breaks and a couple more fights broke out, Natsu ended up running into Elfman, who knocked him into Gajeel, who pushed him into Laxus, who then kicked him into the table Erza was sitting at with her cake, which then caused the requip mage to go berserk and requip into her strongest armor to hit Natsu into Irene.

Vaguely aware of movement around her, Irene focused on reading for the time being until she was rather suddenly rammed into. Spluttering, she dropped her book in surprise and grasped for the edge of the table. Equipping her walking stick and extending it, she stumbled back to a standing position.
Disoriented slightly, Irene tried to identify her attacker. Glowering in his direction once she realized who it was, she scowled. "Damn it, Natsu! I lost my book because of you... It was a good part, too." Mumbling the last part, Irene started feeling around for her book.

Once he came to from the barrage of attacks he was hit with (and they cheated, no matter what anyone says), he stood up from the floor, his temper getting the priority. Natsu always seems to find some kind of smart remark about something, and it never seemed to matter how illogical it was.
"Then why were you readin', if you can call it that, right there?!"

"Excuse you, I was a perfectly safe distance away from your idiotic fighting! And it is too reading!"
Adding the last part to regain her pride, even being unintentionally insulted can wound a disabled person. Sighing, Irene was getting even more irritated at him. And trying- and failing- to find her dropped book wasn't helping her stress levels either. Giving up completely on searching around blindly, Irene let her out her growing irritation by swinging her cane into the source of her annoyance: Natsu.

"How is that reading..?" Questioning the book, Natsu looked over to Lucy, who only shrugged him off by saying she wasn't going to get involved. The moment he looked back at Irene, he had to duck before the cane hit him.
"Hey! What the hell was that for?!"
Of course he, being the dense slayer he can be, completely forgets what had taken place just moments before (grabbing the weird book never came to his mind either).

Irene just huffed in response and retracted her walking cane enough so it could fit in the palm of her hand. Satisfying her temper for now, she sat back down and started feeling around with her foot for her book. "It's Braille, you moronic fire-breather. Books like that are difficult to read if you don't know how to read Braille in the first place." She explained after a long, aggravated sigh. Coming in contact with the book, she bent down and placed it on the table just in case it was stepped on.
"And the swing was for being an annoying little shit, Natsu."

"..." Natsu stayed silent for the longest time (which was beginning to worry everyone else) after sliding into a seat next to Lucy on the bench to the table right across from his most recent 'attacker'.
"...What's Braille?" He finally said something, much to the relief of the rest of the guild. Although a few of his guild-mates facepalmed at the fact Natsu asked such a question. But c'mon, how would he know? Igneel hadn't taught it to him.

Breathing a sigh of relief that Natsu didn't drop dead suddenly, Irene rolled her eyes at his idiotic question. He really didn't know? No wonder he was so stupidly dense on the subject of Braille. Looking up to face him, she snorted in amusement. Slowly, Irene covered her mouth to stop herself from laughing aloud. Giggles leaked through as she leaned forward and wiped her eyes. Taking in a breath of air, she snickered out her reason for spontaneously laughing.
"You're too funny when you don't know common knowledge, I seriously thought you were pulling my leg for a few minutes!"

He shifted in his seat, and even though Irene couldn't see him, he was glaring a bit before glancing at the table and messing with the ends of that familiar white scaled scarf.
"Not my fault! Igneel disappeared before he could really teach me a lot'a stuff.." He looked away, crossing his arms in the process.

"That's not an excuse, y'know. You can still learn about the world even if he is gone."
Still snickering, Irene forced herself to calm down. Faintly hearing shuffling of something from Natsu's direction, she tilted her head and straightened her back. Man, laughing and leaning down at the same time doesn't help back problems at all. Stretching her limbs, she shrugged,"Braille is basically a language for blind people. You can learn it too, it takes time and practice though."

"Yeaaah... Erza kinda.." He shuddered at the memory. After being unable to read a job request when they were younger, Erza had (brutally) taught him a few things, er.. more than a few things in such a way he never wants to experience ever again.
However, after hearing a familiar voice belonging to the said mage who just so happened to overhear him, he sat there, nervous, and deadly quiet.

"I'll just assume it's a bad memory that you don't want to talk about." She commented quietly after Natsu fell silent suddenly. Irene turned her head towards where Erza's scent was and raised an eyebrow.
Waiting a few minutes before continuing, Irene moved to his table almost tripping on the way over. "I can teach you a few letters of the alphabet in Braille if you're really curious, I probably can't teach the same way as Erza did if that helps."
