Seeing that Mac was still following him, like a confused puppy, and that Lyla would probably be more warmly received by Snow, Tallah went to answer the knock at the door. As he reached to pull the door open, Tallah wondered jus how many guest he was going to expect before the day was done. Swinging the large door open easily, and pleasantly surspised with Mac and his handy skills, Tallah stepped back slightly to allow the door to open fully.


"Yes?"


@SnugglyKnight

At the door was a man, young by the looks of it with brown messy hair and brown eyes. He greeted Tallah with a smile, though glanced back behind him before looking at the elf again. "Hey sorry to bother you but I really really REALLY need some water, and shelter for a bit. Please?" He talked really fast, continuously glancing around like he was looking for something. Or someone.

Snow: She warily eyed Tallah and bit her lip a little before nodding. "Um... yes. He did find me. Said you would not be pleased at not finishing my healing... and neither would he... so here I am." She looked away from him, concealing the flash in her eyes as her blood sang for his power, humming slightly. That hum grew as Mac joined him and she took a step back, afraid of the large man. But when both left and Lyla was there, both Snow and her blood settled. She smiled softly at the girl and took a step toward her before pausing.... she had taken her clothes and the dried meat without asking. "I um... I left. But now I am back. I am sorry for my thievery of your possessions Lyla, my sincerest apologies."

Lyla grinned at Snow, reaching forward and ruffling her hair. "Ya didnt steal nuthin, I got my guns and stuff. If yer talkin bout the clothes then it aint stealin if I gave 'em to ya to wear right?" She asked. 

 

[Prrrgadilly]

"Come in and rest yourself." Tallah stepped to the side to allow the nervous youth passageninto the cottage. His voice echoed with open curiosity as he called a fresh cup of water for the unnamed youth. "Perhaps you would like to tell me why you seek asylum in my home, stranger?"


@SnugglyKnight

 

[Safety Hammer]

The blanket Tallah was holding proceeded to fold itself and float towards Tallah's room. His bedroom door opened for the blanket and closed afterwards.


"Of course I am coming with you, Mac. Why else do you think I called a council meeting? The Candidate is not in the forests, so I must leave the forests for the best chance of finding them. I would prefer to be rid of this responsibility as soon as possible." Tallah turned slightly to glance at Mac before Lyla caught his attention, with her shoe in hand. "Snow there is Lyla if you would like to speak with her." He spoke a bit absently; he had not realized that Lyla had broken through the stasis field, though he was pleasantly surprised.


@Safety Hammer @Jennete @SnugglyKnight

"Awright, whatever. But while we're out, Lyla, Miley an' I are gonna be out working on the bounty." Mac pouted, before going into the ice chest, and getting some orange juice. 


"Ain't that right, Lyla?"

"Come in and rest yourself." Tallah stepped to the side to allow the nervous youth passageninto the cottage. His voice echoed with open curiosity as he called a fresh cup of water for the unnamed youth. "Perhaps you would like to tell me why you seek asylum in my home, stranger?"


@SnugglyKnight

"Oh my gosh you rock!" He said, sounding relieved as he walked inside. He took a second to realize the cup floating from... Wherever it came from toward him. "Holy crap, so you use magic? Or do you control things that has to do with water?" Joey asked, plucking the cup from the air. He looked in the water, just out of curiosity, then drank it down quickly. "Oh yea! I'm Joey! And I was just running around when this... Thing caught my attention. It was so weird! So I stop and go up to right? And it just stands there, so I think its a statue. I decided to just kind of tug on it to see if it moves, and these sharp things closed around my arm!" He showed Tallah the cuts, two on the outside of his arm and two on the inside. They werent that deep, but blood was threatening to drip. "Luckily it didnt get a good hold on me, so I get away from it and it turned toward me and started chasing me! I knew I could outrun it but man was it freak looking!" His entire explanation was really fast spoken.

"Awright, whatever. But while we're out, Lyla, Miley an' I are gonna be out working on the bounty." Mac pouted, before going into the ice chest, and getting some orange juice. 


"Ain't that right, Lyla?"

"Err, what bounty again?" Lyla looked over at Mac, "Sorry, I forgot" She does that quite often.

 

[Prrrgadilly]

Tallah refilled allowed the cup to refill itself and return to Joey as he sped through his tale. There was no such statue in the entire forest, so when Joey mentioned claws, Tallah had a sneaking suspicion. 


"Would this statue happen to have been very tall, white and skeletal, with a hole in its torso?" Tallah inquired as he wrapped Joey's arm in healing light and erasing the cuts with laughable ease.

Snow: She nodded and bit her lip, sniffing a little bit at the relief filling her. "Oh... then... good I suppose." She turned quickly at the knock and voice of a male, fear filling her briefly. She didn't like strangers...and was exceptionally scared of the male ones. She stood slightly behind Lyla as Tallah greeted him and silently voiced a thought that her lips would never dare utter... she missed the security of Garren's arms. No one would harm her when he was around... his portals made him seem almost indestructible in nature. 


(( @Delacare I am just awwwing at Snow and Garren tbh. Too cute))

Joey took the water and nodded to thanks to Tallah and drank that down. "Have you see it?" He asked. That's exactly what he saw! "What is it?" He asked again, curious now. His eyes were like perfect circles when Tallah magically healed his arm, looking it over. "Whoa! You really do rock!" He commented, poking where the wounds used to be. Now, he got distracted as he heard different voices and took the time to realize there were other people with them. (This is just for the funzies). Okay, first was the one who opened the door. Then the big guy. A small girl, looked rather malnourished. And finally, the woman who spoke just a minute ago. Joey couldnt help himself. He waltzed over there, flashing Lyla a grin when she turned her head. "Hey there, name's Joey" He said, his arms crossed and he looked relaxed. "Err, hey. Name's Lyla" The bounty huntress replied, not too sure who this new guy was. "So, who are ya again?" She asked. "Call me the fastest man alive!" Joey said, his grin widening. Lyla raised an eyebrow, "I wouldnt brag 'bout that if I were ya" She said with a small smirk. Joey didnt get it, why shouldnt he be proud of that? Ohhhh..... "I'm only fast when running! Perfect speed otherwise" He quickly said, trying to save it. "Oh yea?" Lyla looked interested, in which excited the very excitable Joey. He nodded, "Not too fast, not too slow. I could show you if you want" Eager beaver, the phrase to explain who Joey was. "Oh, sorry hun, but ya know what," SHe reached back and unholstered her shotgun and tapped the barrel to Joey's chest. "Mine's bigger than yours" She commented with a smirk. Joey put his hands up and backed off, "Okay, sorry" He went back to Tallah with his metaphorical tail between his legs. "So uhm, what were we talking about?"

Snow: She nodded and bit her lip, sniffing a little bit at the relief filling her. "Oh... then... good I suppose." She turned quickly at the knock and voice of a male, fear filling her briefly.

Lyla holstered her gun back, noticing Snow move behind her when Joey showed up. She turned to her, "Its okay Little Sticks, I gotch'er back!" She called Snow Little Sticks because she was smaller than her. Lyla grabbed Snow and picked her up in a hug, literally lifting the girl off the ground. "I gotch'er back"

Snow: She yelped as Lyla held her up and her feet dangled. "Oh my, Lyla, you can stop the action you are performing right now. I understood the metaphor without the show of extreme affectionate force." She yelped a little but sighed and hugged the other girl back. Her hug was very awkward though as she had not given out affection in quite some time. In an example of her awkwardness her hug consisted of three spaced out uncomfortably pressured pats with a flat hand...

Lyla let her down, "It was a hug" She said, confused. Why did Snow freak at first? "It isnt dangerous, I promise" Well, it can be if you ask someone in a certain unknown universe to them with certain gore and death and... Fatalities.

Snow: "I know it was a hug... I just don't give them out very often. Or at the level you were giving yours." She bit her lip, ashamed of her outoftouchness. Clearing her throat she nodded and backed up, running a hand through her hair. "I do apologize for my hugs lacking."

"Ah, no biggie I guess" Lyla shrugged. "Also, ya say sorry a lot. Maybe not do that all the time?" Lyla was the type to be in someone's face even if she was wrong instead of saying sorry. 

 

[Jennete]

"Ah, no biggie I guess" Lyla shrugged. "Also, ya say sorry a lot. Maybe not do that all the time?" Lyla was the type to be in someone's face even if she was wrong instead of saying sorry. 

Snow: "Why? Is the word offensive to others?" She tilted her head to the side in confusion, biting her lip. She did not know the customs of these individuals. Perhaps sorry was a weakness that they did not tolerate.

"It makes ya easy t' just step on" Lyla said simply. "Sometimes I guess ya can say it, but not all the time. Got it?"

 

[Jennete]

"It makes ya easy t' just step on" Lyla said simply. "Sometimes I guess ya can say it, but not all the time. Got it?"

Snow: "Oh... well I don't want to be stepped on." She nodded and tugged at the edge of her shirt. "I will refrain from the phrase. Do you need to start preparing for that bounty you and the giant man will take?" She was referring to Mac.

 

[VanRIPPED]

Snow: "Oh... well I don't want to be stepped on." She nodded and tugged at the edge of her shirt. "I will refrain from the phrase. Do you need to start preparing for that bounty you and the giant man will take?" She was referring to Mac.

"I'm as prepared as I'm ever gonna get" Lyla shrugged. "Besides, I doubt it'll take long to even catch this guy. We'll have him turned in and get all the gold we can imagine!"

 

[Jennete]

"I'm as prepared as I'm ever gonna get" Lyla shrugged. "Besides, I doubt it'll take long to even catch this guy. We'll have him turned in and get all the gold we can imagine!"

Snow: She paused and her brow furrowed as a concerning thought popped into her head. "Will Tallah leave with your group since his lover is in the party?"

 

[Prrrgadilly]

((sorry, stopped getting notifs for some reason))


"I believe that we were discussing your encounter with this creature." Motioning t the space beside himself, Tallah conjured up an extremely fuzzy illusory copy of Szaktal that gained focus and detail gradually. As the image became crystal clear, it began to mimic the swaying motion of Szaktal's head attachment and other such twitches. "This is the "statue", yes?"


@SnugglyKnight

 

[VanRIPPED]

Snow: She paused and her brow furrowed as a concerning thought popped into her head. "Will Tallah leave with your group since his lover is in the party?"

"Err, I dunno. Why?" Lyla asked with a shrug. To her, it didnt matter if he was coming along or not. She just wanted to get this job done as soon as possible.

Joey widened his eyes, his jaw dropping as he nodded. "J-just like it! It moved like that and everything!" He said, getting the creeps just looking at it. It was so weird to look at again. "What is it?"

Snow: "For I am curious on who that leaves at this cabin... This stranger," She motions to Joey who is being impressed by Tallah's powers which were make her blood sing like crazy, "and Garren correct... who seems... to have vanished." She shifted, uncomfortable at that. She did not want to be left alone defenseless... but she did not want to go hunting for anything with this bounty hunter. Lyla's work seemed dangerous.

"I dunno who all is goin besides me, Mac, and the elf. If the rest wanna come along thats fine" She said, leaning agaisnt the wall. "Though, I discourage ya from goin along. Yer a bit too small"

Snow: "That we can agree on." Snow spat out bitterly, a cutting smile on her soft featured face. "But I will manage, do not worry." She slowly spun in a small circle, taking in her surroundings with one slow blink. "I wonder if Garren has a room here..." She paused and shook her head. "No... from what I gather and his own words, he travels far too much." She bit her lip and smiled softly. "Oh I wish Magnus had stayed... then I would have had some fond company to converse with. Garren seems to be quite put out by me at late."

"Magnus?" Lyla didnt know the croc's name. "And why do ya think he's put off? What has he done?" She asked curiously. 

 

[Jennete]

"Magnus?" Lyla didnt know the croc's name. "And why do ya think he's put off? What has he done?" She asked curiously. 

Snow: "He is upset that I have bonded with the crocodile more than I have bonded with him I suppose. I... I just don't know what to feel around him. He is everything I need to stay very far away from. A traveller. A free spirit. A powerful force. A male. I do not know why he needs or desires my trust in him." She scoffed, frowning. "But he is a familiar face... and that would comfort me when I am to be here alone."

"But he is a familiar face... and that would comfort me when I am to be here alone." 

"A male? One of the things ya need t' stay away from is male?" That didnt make much sense to her, but she figured something. "If he's everythin' ya need to stay away from, than I say turn around and get 'em. Its always fun to go fer th' ones yer not supposed to. And honestly, he sounds kinda jealous. Y'know, that ya like a croc more than ya like him"

Snow: "I am not built for romance Lyla. I will not allow myself to love... you heard part of my tale when I thought I was alone... you know that I cannot just...just let myself grow attached to anyone. He is not jealous either. From your stories he is just a sensual being that does not mind if you are not interested or not." She huffed, rolling her eyes and a small smirk touched the corner of her lips. "And if he is upset over something as wrong as the perception that I like anyone more than anyone in a romantic way then good. I have been meaning to find someway to punish him for his lack of gentleness in when he first met me. Kept me on his lap without so much as asking for my input if I desired to be touched by a stranger."
