The Fallen Angel and the Lion

she followed him. Dasuke saw them head outside and he watched.

 

[Ricia]

When they got outside Tannis sat down and invited her to sit next to him, where he would start to brush her hair gently.

 

[InsaneTruth]

she sat down and smiled "Tannis, thank you,"

 

[Ricia]

Tannis smiled back, "Might as well get your hair first before you get mad trying to do mine." He said with a chuckle while he got all the tangles. Slowly he ran the brush through he hair. Dasuke saw he was very gentle with her. "I meet a man named Stone... whom feed me when I got off the boat on Gorath. I was very hungry." He told her.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Stone... odd name for a man," Shania said as her hair was brushed "I'm glad he gave you food though,"

 

[Ricia]

"I am too. I had no idea what I was doing... though I still don't." Tannis said with a deep chuckle. When he was done, he handed her the brush then took his Manticore form, "Are you sure you want to try still?" He asked laughing.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Yes!" Shania said


"You may want a detangler," Dasuke said softly.


Shania looked at Dasuke and bristled up.

 

[Ricia]

Tannis chuckled, "I don't think it is possible to get all the knots out of my mane. But if she wants to try, then i'll let her." He told him. "If you have anything that would help, that might be appreciated.... I don't think i've ever brushed my mane.."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Well then I guess the little lady has a very hard task. I have a spray that might help." Dasuke said.


"Whatever," She said and began to try and brush the mane

 

[Ricia]

Tannis laughed, "Shania. Don't be like that. This is the man who saved your life." Tannis told her even as she turned to try and run a brush through his thick hair. Needless to say the first stroke caught the brush in deep tangles.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"You saved me." she said to Tannis pulling the brush from the mane she tried again the brush through.


"I understand your mistrust Shania," Dasuke told her

 

[Ricia]

"I wish that were true... but I coudln't do anything to help you." Tannis said, watching her try to brush through his hair.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"You always help me," she said

 

[Ricia]

Tannis smiled as much as a manticore could before giving Dasuke an apologetic look. "Make me feel a bit better and thank Dasuke..?" Tannis asked her.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Shania huffed "Thanks," she said tartly. Dasuke just laughed lightly.

 

[Ricia]

Tannis purred lightly, "That did make me feel better." He told Shania happily. Though he felt like she was not getting very far on his mangled mane. "Thank you again.. for your hospitality. I may make her rest a few days before we leave."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"You are free to stay here as long as you want." Dasuke smiled "Both of you,"


"Tannis..." Shania said softly

 

[Ricia]

"Yes, Shania?" Tannis asked, though he tried not to move his head too much so she could brush.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I ... I don't want to cross the sea again," she told him

 

[Ricia]

Tannis looked a bit surprised and did turn his head to look at her, "Then... where is it you wish to go?" He asked Shania.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I ... I don't know," she said her hand knotted in his mane "they shipped me like cago... in an inforced crate...."

 

[Ricia]

Tannis rolled onto his side and wrapped a large paw around Shania, pushing her into his mane and holding her close to him, "I'm sorry. Shania." Tannis told her softly, "I came for you ask fast as I could. I'll try not to let that happen to you again."

 

[InsaneTruth]

she hugged him tightly.


Dasuke smiled when the mantacore hugged the sma;; child

 

[Ricia]

"I won't tell anyone if you cry." The manticore joke softly. If she was upset or scared then he wanted her to express it. He doubt she would. She'll proububly just hit him and tell him she didn't cry.

 

[InsaneTruth]

she huffed and her fire brushed him where he not a fire cored creature it would have hurt. "i won't cry,"
