Location: Harzel fort Mid-Morning [hr] [@Cu Chulainn][@Crimson Paladin] [hr] Grainne simply shrugged as Ethelred left and went back to doing whatever she was doing before, though she didn’t get too far before Marduk showed back up. “Ha?! Pipsqueak!? I’ll kick your ass, assfa-” She’d begin, her usual fiery temperament shining through and almost making her miss the following words…which immediately shut her up. “-ace?” Grainne immediately fell silent, though her glare and general agitated temperament didn’t change as Marduk made his case. It was clear that as much as she detested the idea, she really couldn’t find a logical reason to turn these people down. As Lonan’s squire, she was technically in charge here as she acted as Lonan’s sort of…second in command as far as things went. “...tch, alright fine. But do anything funny, and I’ll have you in shackles and tossed into the prison!” She’d bark. “Also, I’m not showing you the prisons! I still don’t trust you lot but if you can beat that freaky scaly thing fine…” She glanced to the side, frowning a moment before her usual fiery visage returned. “Come on then! And keep that weird horse of yours outside!” It seemed as though they had successfully convinced her for now, though it didn’t do much for her mood all things considered. [hr] Location: Southern Giants Rest Late Night [@VitaVitaAR] [hr] [color=fff79a]“...heh. Why so nervous? You already slept with your queen, you shouldn’t be so reserved now.”[/color] Sorcha grinned, placing a hand on top of Fio’s head and ruffling her hair affectionately as she’d stand up, hair gently swaying in the breeze as the sun would just start to peek over the horizon, illuminating the world in a brilliant, dazzling orange glow of morning light. [color=fff79a]“Thanks, fio. Sometimes…its hard…hard to just…live up to him, you know? I always have to ask myself if this is what he wanted, or what if I do something wrong? It doesn’t help with the…particularly vivid memories, especially ones regarding…”[/color] Sorcha visibly shuddered, exhaling and shaking her head as she’d extend a hand to pull Fio to her feet. [color=fff79a]“Mhm, no. That’s a story for another time. For now Niall and Gabriel should have returned and the others should be awake now. Lets get some breakfast and get to a strategy meeting, hm?”[/color] Once either Fio accepted her hand or not, Sorcha would hop down onto the balcony with a smile. [color=fff79a]“I wonder if there will be any rumors of a queen and a mage meeting for a drunken tryst~?”[/color] [@Pyromania99] [hr] “Hm? Mistreating?” Sucaria tilted her head to the side, seeming to think for a moment. “...hm if I say yes will you be upset?” Sucaria responded with a question of her own as she’d run the cleaning cloth across Luna’s skin, still careful to keep any drops of crimson both out of the water and off of Luna’s skin expression falling slightly as Luna mentioned being away for a significant amount of time. “...mhm, Gabriel hits on me still occasionally.” Sucaria commented. “But other than that…no, not really?” The half fomorian would slowly use her hands to scrub Luna’s chest and apply some warm, soapy water to the rest of her shoulders and muscles, delicate but firm hands also giving her a massage for her fatigued muscles. “...just wondering…” She’d say, perhaps a bit forlorn sounding. [@FrogRFlowR] [hr] “Mmf-” Nialls foot met the large mans face and with enough force launched himself backwards and landed right onto a walkway built into the wooden palisade. “-ha…agile little vermin.” The bandit harrumphed, hefting his hammer over his shoulders. “Hm…lets see how you handle…this. You got that thing ready, Fomorian brat?” “The false eye? Nah. It’ll be ready by morning, though.” “Hmph…unfortunate-” There was a trumpeting sound not far out from the gate. “...Here she comes! Jump high, owl!” The tuatha shouted with a laugh. Niall had only seconds to react before he’d feel the air around him chill considerably, the thundering sounds of hoof falls heading towards their direction. Another trumpeting call as something would shortly crash right into the gate! The tuatha followed his own advice, leaping high as his enhanced strength could force him into the air while the gate itself was completely shattered into many large pieces as an absolutely mammoth of a…mammoth barreled right through the gate. “Atta girl, Shabbi!” The Tuatha would land right on the Mammoth’s back in a saddle as the creature would [i]ram[/i] its tusks right into Annagan. “Get on Owl!” “What in the queens holy knickers…” Gabriel was peeking through the gate from the side as he watched the mammoth ram right through the gate.
