Jamie, Elyra, Romarod

(@Wick & @Caits was in this motha fuckin collab!!  )

Jamie watched Elyra go back to where James was, before sighing softly. She  turned her attention back to the fire, letting herself simply relax. She sat like that a moment, content. There was a lot that Jamie was thinking, but mostly she was just...happy. She knew she should get up and check on William, but she didn't want to disturb him, didn't want wake him-she was going to make sure that William slept as long as possible. 

Finally, Jamie sat forward, and carefully unwound the bandage on her arm, checking the slash from the arrow. It seemed okay, and Jamie had to wonder how many more injuries she'd get throughout this mission, and she wrapped it back up, looking back as Elyra came back towards the fire. She didn't know if that was a good sign or not, and this time instead of waiting for Elyra to speak, she asked "is everything okay?"

Elyra sat and waited a moment. "I really don't know who is the most confused. My feelings for James have been there for a long time. His feelings for Athelia were real. When she died he lost his mind. Now that she is back he....doesn't know how he feels about her. Until he figures that out he and I can't have a future. He must figure out his feelings and now that she is remembering...will she want him back? I will not stand between them. If James wants to be with me he will have to figure that out and then let me know. I expect the next few days to be very difficult. Let me see your hand, It should be healing well." Elyra took the bandages off of Jamie's hand and she smiled. The cut was almost invisible.   "Almost good as new."

Jamie patiently let Elyra check her hand, trying to think what she could say, but there didn't seem to be anything."Well. I think a lot of it will depend on her. Will she be the same, after everything? Feel the same? Its been a long time, and sometimes things change" the words seemed lame even to Jamie, and she frowned, "I do hope they work out, Elyra" She said sincerly 

Even though he was with the group, he still felt a little alone. Sort of to himself while watching the others in conversation with each other. Regardless, he was still happy to experience all he has so far. He watched as an elf checked on the human female's hand and broke silence. "What happened to her hand? and what are your names?" he asked being few with his words

Elyra looked up at where the voice was coming from and she was surprised to see a gargantu looking back at her. She smiled,   "This is Jamie and she cut her hand a few days ago. I'm Elyra, the healer on this trip. Actually there are a a few with healing abilities here, I'm just the official one."

Romarod stared for a moment Was the wound caused by a Magi? he asked And healer? Magi or non? he asked. And also, I'm Romarod....

Jamie gave the new comer a smile, wondering how many people that brought the group to, but as she hadn't met all the new comers just yet, she didn't know. She paused at the question to her injured hand, "No, it wasn't. i ran into a dagger, pesky things that they are" She said, giving a shrug, "I tend to test boundaries" She gave a soft laugh, "Pleasure to meet you. When did you arrive here?"

Elyra's brow raised as she watched Jamie lie to him. She listened and then said,   "Jamie should be careful lest she run into more daggers and bleed to death." She smirked knowing that Jamie would get it.   "It's nice to meet you Romarod."

Romarod listened to both of the women and thought to himself, how can one run into a dagger? but he let that information go. He slight smirked Nice to meet you too. I arrived the other day. Haven't met everyone yet but I met my own fellow Gargantu and....despite the want of harming him, I'm happy to have joined in this mission. he said 

Jamie gave a laugh at Elyra's words "Well, not from that source, at least" She replied, looking back to Romarod, "Well, it certainly is an...adventurous mission, for sure." She said, "Mostly, its a good group."

Elyra chuckled at Romarod's wanting to hurt Gun'tar.   "It seems we all suffer from that affliction. Gun'tar is not well liked and he is grumpy and a little rude. I can see that you are not like him and I am thankful for that." yup
She felt flush from the heat of the fire.

Nodding to them, Romarod looked at the fire I know there are rules of my kind and this bomb that I heard about that's in me will keep us from killing each other but being locked away all my life, I never seen anything like you two or everything I've seen outside my cell. Gun'tar said he was the one that put me in that cell in the first place and maybe it's the Gargantu in me but I had rage that I almost couldn't control. I just want to ask of you two, please to not  push me....I don't want to cause more problems for my kind than there already is. And if you could let me know a few things about this outside world....I have no idea about the many things here. It's been so long, I don't remember seeing the sun or stars or the moon since I was a child until now... he said

As Romarod spoke, Jamie didn't like what he said. She knew Gun'tar was an ass, but locking someone up for who knew how long? That infuriated her, but she couldn't do anything about it. At least not right then.  "Well...what do you want to know?" Jamie knew she took the world for granted, really, but she had no idea what to say to Romarod, "There's a lot, but...The sun and stars and such are probably the best. The world hasn't really changed much in my life time..."

Romarod had to think for a moment. There was indeed so much about the world he didn't know about and he didn't know where to begin. Uh...I don't really know where to begin...but...what is....music? he asked. He heard the word before but didn't really know what it was, not exactly hearing it before. If he did, he didn't notice, he thought it may have been noise or crying of an animal.

The question reminded Jamie of William at the inn. Perhaps it wouldn't be so hard, to help educated Romarod. She just had to...explain typical things. "Music is..well hard to explain without an instrument...but basically there are these...tools, that allow us to make sounds, hopefully beautiful sounds, that create a...a song. Like singing, but...with sounds." She knew it was a crappy explaination, but she couldn't think of any other way..."Oh! Elyra, you can sing, I heard you before, why don't you give an example of it? Its not musical instruments, but still!"

Elyra smiled and nodded, she thought a moment and started to sing a tribal song about hope and renewal. The melody was so fluid and delicate on the senses that she noticed a few minutes into it that others around the campfire were watching her with awe. She turned and looked at Romarod and she could see that he understood. When she was finished singing she heard sniffling as some were so touched  that they had been crying. Elyra had the gift of voice. It was probably her biggest natural gift and it was said her voice was angelic.

Sitting Indian style while Jamie tried to explain, Romarod tried to get an understanding from her explanation. He looked a little bewildered at first and slightly tilted his head, averting his eyes thinking about these tools that made sounds and then this word called 'song'. He sort of got what she was saying until Jamie asked Elyra to sing so he could understand better. Romarod, was like a child, attentively listening as if he was at a magic show or was going to see a super neat trick. He leaned in a little with a focused look while his attention was on Elyra as she sang. His face was still focused the whole time while she sung through the song and noticed that people around them responded to it in some way. It was almost like an enchantment...a spell. When she was done, Romarod smiled Music.....wait...you have to be magi too... he said interested in this music. He turned to Jamie You sing now. he said wanting to hear what she could do. He wondered if everyone could do it? 

Jamie smiled as Elyra sang, enjoying the song, she watched Romarod, starting to say that you didn't need to be a magi to sing, when he said for her to sing too. Jamie stared a moment, taken aback. Jamie hadn't done anything close to singing since coming to the citadel, and even before then, she was self-conscious about her voice. It was probably a little strange to see the normally confident Jamie so self-conscious as she tried to say she didn't want to sing, opening her mouth to say so, before closing it. 

She sighed softly, looking down at her hands in her lap. She was silent for a few moments, debating about what to do. But having made Elyra sing, how could she say no? She sighed softly, and choosing a song, Jamie began to sing softly, her voice was raw, rough around the edges, a talent she hadn't had refined, but that she always thought sounded...wrong. She trailed off after a moment, and stared into the fire.

Enzo/ Introducing Conroy Augustine

Departing for a moment from Violet and going to go check on the food he collected to contribute to the group, Enzo saw another femlae he hadn't seen yet. She must've just arrived just like him when hearing the introductions and all. In time, he'd meet her but for now, he needed to check his things.

While looking through, he was thinking about the last time he saw his brother.....

"Bro...you sure about this shit? maybe it's best if we stayed together.... The other brother looked over "Enzo...you sound like a bitch...look if we split, they will have a hard time killing us. We can meet in Austin Texas...." Enzo thought for a moment I knew we shouldn't have trusted that snake ass Patrick....if he sold out his wife, which we all felt he did to save his own ass, then what the hell do you think he'd do to us? tch...trying to get rid of the extra baggage... Enzo looked on and sighed "bro...make sure you use your map...this is important...if you don't see me in 3 days...go on without me...if I'm not in Austin..." nah Conroy....you're gonna make...but- as they were talking, gunfire sounded near them as they looked at each other and fist bumped. But if they both were to leave at the same time, they would with no doubt both be spotted and possibly killed. Conroy looked on "improvise..." he said rushing out and shooting at the group who were very close.

with them chasing Conroy down, Enzo was given and opportunity to leave. Afterwards, he did not hear back from Conroy. He was on the way to Austin but the day they were to meet, there was no sign of his brother. Enzo traveled near where they split the first time and tried backtracking to find if his bro was alive or at least get confirmation that he was dead. Since then, he's assumed that his brother gotten away and ran somewhere else...

There was a figure approaching the school cautiously holding his firearm and looking around for any signs of life but any sign of life looked to be enemy to him. Don't trust anyone....that's what he was going by while walking towards the school where he found the vehicles. Coming up to the vehicles, he checked them out to see if they were operational or if anyone were in them while still holding out his handgun.
