Nyima looked at him as he said he may go. She pouted slightly, "Please! It'll be fun! Besides, why would he not want you to come?" 
He moved over to the couch and laid down. Looking at her but said nothing as she stood and walked into the kitchen, "You can take a hot shower tonight and come tomorrow," she smiled at him as she started to pull things out of the cupboard starting to make dinner. She had noticed how stiff he was, "I can help you if you are sore... It won't do you any good if you get into a fight and can hardly raise your arm to defend yourself."

She watched him, waiting for a response, "If you still need convincing with the whole Glacier Spirits thing... I'll be leaving and returning after dark and I'm still not allowed to walk around the city at night without supervision, your rule," she turned toward the stove and started to boil water, "And I don't need Matsen thinking this is anything more than a Mentor Apprentice thing..." she looked at him over her shoulder, "But it is up to you... I'm done making my case."

He closed his eyes and and sighed grumpily. He did not want to to go. He hated crowds... Partially due to his job and partially most people were morons. He tried to think his way out of it but she was right he still didn't like her walking alone after dark and she's gotten comfortable enough to make a statement... She would probably walk home alone to prove a point to him. 

" Fine! I'll go." He then looked at at her and added. " Indont need your healing tonight... It's just sore muscles nothing to worry about. I've had worse before and faired enough. I appreciate the offer though. " he noticed she was making dinner and sighed and got up and made his way over to help. She's made dinner almost every night for him. He felt guilty letting her cook alone when he is in the house. She tended to have dinner ready when he got home so he would take over dishes.

He washed his hands and got ready to help her
