Oliver liked the colour Sanguine turned when he threatened to kiss her. It was a good look on the normally pale vampire. Obviously she didn't agree, though, as she quickly jumped on him for not taking things seriously. "Probably not." he agreed with a shrug. Maintaining a happy-go-lucky attitude was an important part of retaining one's sanity in the face of potentially horrifying reality. Then she suggested she might actually try to eat him, and the Paladin found himself smiling at the idea. Clearly he didn't get the gravity that his companion seemed to perceive in the situation.

He left it at that, though, and they made their way to the portal room so that the Guild Master could do some reconnaissance of her own. While she did her thing, the Paladin began browsing the other magical contents of the room. He did a bit of digging, and revealed the stash he'd made from a while back. Magical tomes dedicated to his deity, tucked away from the prying eyes of magic users more inclined toward the darker arts. He didn't exactly need anything from the books, but it was nice to know they were still properly hidden. The fact that the NPCs could move and think for themselves had him crafting a better spot, however. Tucked further behind more ominous volumes, the warrior ensured his tiny treasure trove would go undisturbed by anyone seeking dark knowledge. Being the only vaguely good-aligned cleric in the guild made for an interesting time, but no one had objected. Now, it seemed, there was no one to object, which made life even easier, in his opinion.

By the time Oliver was satisfied with his work, Sanguine had located the nearest settlement, and it sounded like a good place to begin asking questions. That was probably going to be up to him. Being the face of the guild had never really occurred to him, as they'd always dealt with other similarly aligned parties before this. That was when he was their secret weapon, his ability to channel positive energies a catastrophic threat to any ally that thought it was a good idea to turn on the guild. Now, he supposed it would be him doing the hiding. He wasn't going to start making decisions just yet, though. The vampire operating the fancy scrying mirror was still in charge. And right now she wanted a bath.

"You have fun with that." the warrior agreed. "I don't know what I'm going to do. Probably accidentally step into the most unpleasant situation I can." he sounded kind of proud of that eventuality. "Maybe you can come dig me out when you're done." he added with a chuckle. As much as he liked Sanguine and wanted to spend time with her, he didn't think their relationship had progressed to the point where he could invite himself into the bath with her. As nice as that would be, he decided to play it safe for now. He'd put on a bold front about not being scared of the vampire, but if she got pissed off enough, it was going to be awfully hard to keep her from hurting him...
