Pahn and Odin could be witnessed sitting at expected locations upon Anora peering into Dino's Eatery: One massive cross-legged behemoth relaxing on the carpet near an immaculate, silvery gentlemen in the booth nearby. They had discussed a choice few subjects during the young woman's absence. Yet, one must recognize, this did not occur without first being interrupted by an enamored restaurant owner. [color=f26522]"Who is this!?"[/color] Dino, whom had neglected to check the dining area for several moments, had only just emerged from the kitchen to witness his latest guest. Those stubby legs carried him swiftly towards Odin, the one targeted by his inquiry. [color=0054a6]"Hmm?-"[/color] Odin would have initially responded, further words brewing behind pressed lips before being shushed by a slight hand gesture from Pahn. [color=6ecff6]"This is my friend. We'll have another pizza."[/color] Pahn waved towards the old man at this, a slight flicker of white light crackling across his fingertips. With this, a magic used to placate another being had been used. As far as Dino is now concerned, regardless as to circumstance, everything is going extremely well and he hasn't a thing to worry for. [color=f26522]"Of course! I'll be right back with it."[/color] Dino would happily respond, walking back towards his kitchen immediately after. Several minutes later he would come back with a fully prepared cheese pizza. Such a use of simple magics was not unknown to many mages, but, for Pahn, it was not typical. This powerful being often enjoys observing the rants and squabbles of other beings. He's known by Odin to have enjoyed the allowance of all those near him to let loose with every inner emotion. All feelings are equal to Pahn, for him to push away another individuals questions about present circumstance before answers could arise is rare. Odin had noticed something wrong with his old friend upon entering, though, to rear it's head in this way shows an unnatural severity. [color=0054a6]"Sage... What troubles you?"[/color] Odin would turn towards the man he'd come to see, a deep and understanding vibrato surrounding each word. An unmentioned alarming sign had pushed Odin to seek out Pahn, bringing him here. [color=6ecff6]"Odin.-"[/color] Pahn leans upon the palm of his right hand, those glazed eyes focusing on the being near him. [color=6ecff6]"-I've really gone and done it, old friend.."[/color] [color=0054a6]"What could it be? Are you truly having such troubles?!"[/color] Odin's voice would raise slightly, it's pitch showing an anxiety foreign to his charismatic confidence. In all the century's of knowing Pahn, this Norse god had not witnessed him to show regret over any decision. At this last sentence, Anora would have begun peaking back into the establishment. It wouldn't be hard for her to tell that an intimate conversation between close friends had begun. [color=6ecff6]"I've contained my natures further than needed. By this, I failed to observe a poison as it entered me.-"[/color] Shortly after hearing this, Odin practically threw himself into the air. The giants body had gone rigid with mixed emotions of anger, surprise, and extreme guilt. [color=0054a6]"A POIS-....!!"[/color] Pahn raised his left palm towards Odin just as he'd begun to shout, ushering the befuddled being to calm himself. Several seconds later, the tall blue beast relaxed enough to cross his legs once more by a loud *THUD!* with the earth below. [color=6ecff6]"I haven't much time, those responsible are seeking my regalia. May I trust you to assist my crossing River Styx?"[/color] By these words, Odin was drawn aback. He looked shocked, perhaps even fearful. [color=0054a6]"..Do you believe I'm prepared for that? You did lose permission when-..."[/color] Odin paused during his question, as if struggling to find the proper words to bring about a particular subject. [color=0054a6]"-When 'she' passed."[/color] Those last three words were soft and quiet in their tender release. [color=6ecff6]"I'm aware. I'm well aware...-"[/color] Troubled sighs fill Pahn's banter by these words. [color=6ecff6]"-We'll defy Nike's exile, I know. Regardless, you understand what will happen if we aren't quick about this."[/color] [color=0054a6]"I do.."[/color] Odin would surrender, his shoulders slumped in defeat. Our godly pair would now sit in silence for several long moments. They would eat their pizza as neither Pahn nor Odin could immediately think of a thing to say. Yet, before long, blue lips would inevitably find a way to lighten disparate moods. [color=0054a6]"I'd say I've lost another bet with my wife."[/color] Odin would tentatively chuckle, speaking on his often humorous home life. [color=6ecff6]"Oh yeah? Still proving you wrong at every turn, is she?"[/color] Pahn grins at his friend, the gambles Odin and Frigg make with one another being the topic for many a conversation in the past. [color=0054a6]"Aye, her sharp wit's a double edge.-"[/color] The god would laugh aloud before continuing between slices of pizza. [color=0054a6]"-She said you'd need help when I felt your brand lose potency. I wagered you wouldn't. Now, she's proven right again."[/color] His laugh then escalated, each below pushing a powerful vibration into this buildings walls. [color=6ecff6]"What did you lose this time?"[/color] Pahn inquires, his mood lightening further upon eating and conversing further. [color=0054a6]"I lost Sleipnir for a century!" [/color]At this, Pahn would spit forth out of surprise before they both broke into an uproarious bought of laughter.
