Janius raised a hand as soon as he perceived the trouble that Meesei was having with standing up. "Oh, no you don't have to..." Janius trailed off with his protests when it was made clear that Meesei had made up her mind. He was glad to embrace her after all the worry he had been through. "You are impossible, alpha, you know that?" Janius said with a wide grin while hugging Meesei.

As for Meesei's next words, that just caused Janius to let out another small laugh as he took Meesei's upper arms and pulled back. "You don't need to help up to pack up! I'm just happy enough that you're alive!" Janius turned his smiling face to Kaleeth and Lorag. "But I'm not the only one. Give me a moment, I have to thank one of your saviours." Supporting Meesei with one arm, Janius helped her into Kaleeth's arms, knowing that Kaleeth had been just as worried as him. Lorag would likely get a hug as well, even if he wasn't the emotional type.

Once Meesei no longer needed his support, Janius walked up behind Sabine where she sat and squat down to wrap his arms around her torso. "Come here you clever little runt!" Janius then lifted her up into the air, causing her to yelp and laugh.

"I only had one part in it!" Sabine said through her giggling. She tried not to kick over any glassware while Janius held her up, even though his ticklish hands tempted her to flail more.

Janius lowered Sabine to her feet and chuckled. "I don't care, you helped save Meesei's life!" Janius put a hand around to Sabine's forehead and gave her a loud kiss on the back of her head. "Mmmwah! You're brilliant!" He then let her go and turned to look at the rest of the tent. "Where's Marcaille? We'll have to thank her as well."

"Hey," Uthri cooed. She didn't take offence to Peiter's words. She could tell that he was too upset to be forgiving at the moment. "I know, Peiter. It is frightening. We're here for you now, me and your brother. We're here to support you."

Tzirret's mouth twitched into an effort of a smile, though the rest of his face didn't change. He had no idea what to say or do.

Uthri continued and would continue comforting Peiter for as long as he needed her to. "Just feel what you need to feel. It's a shock."
