Damned Woods

[Lord of the Aesir]

Tiberius paused again, deciding whether or not to keep his face in the ground. He slowly gets up and looks at Kaede. Oh! A fox in a kimono....She must be a kitsune.. he sits cross legged and stares at Kaede. "Um...hi...sorry for screaming at you...."  

[Julia the Trickster]

Kaede smiles and replies, "It's ok, I'm sorry I scared you." Kaede sits facing Tiberius. "My name is Kaede. Tell me Tiberius, why were you hiding from us? You weren't planning on stealing anything were you?" Kaede didn't smile, but she tried not to look unhappy. The truth was, she was suspicious of the young man.  

[Lord of the Aesir]

Tiberius shook his head, obviously hurt. "No! No, I wasn't going to steal anything...I just..was going to ask if you could spare a few things...But then those wolves...I got scared...." Tiberius looked shyly at the ground.  

[Julia the Trickster]

Kaede nodded. "Don't worry, I understand your fear. I was once afraid of one of those wolves...You kinda get used to being around them after a while." Kaede realized that this man probably posed little threat. He seems kind of fragile...she thinks to herself. Kaede stood up on her hind legs. "Come, I found this nice patch of forest moss. It's a lot more comfortable than these dead leaves and twigs. You can tell me what it is that you had wanted to use." Kaede walks around the tree to the patch of moss she had been sitting on before. She wiped away some leaves, showing more of the patch. Enough for Tiberius to sit on. She waited for him to come.  

[Lord of the Aesir]

Tiberius slowly and warily stood up and walked over to the patch that Kaede had uncovered. "Thanks..." he said as he sat down. He looked around nervously. He spied, what he thought was, sleeping Alyxis. "Um...Is she?..." he asked Kaede.  

[Hiraru Sagara]

Alyxis sat up with a pained groan her silver hair tangled into a rat's nest from her braid. "Damn you all to hell... It's too early to be speaking so loudly, and I'm too soar to beat you with a stick." her Boise was roughened by all of the crying she'd don, but otherwise she was fine. She pulled the sleeping bag up to cover her breasts and glared at the man. Her temper was never good after a healing session, "Who's the trimpling bean pole, Kaede?"

Devin finally finished and gave Pyne a doggy smile that said he didn't understand the problem.  

[Tall Italian Boy]

Pyne got up and started to run back to Alyxis.

 

[Lord of the Aesir]

Tiberius shrank back with tears welling in his eyes. A mixture of fear and embarrassment on his face.  

[Julia the Trickster]

Kaede glares at Alyxis. "Quit your growling and be nice. He came looking to borrow something." She looks at Tiberius noticing him shrinking in fear. "He's a little fragile, so I'm going to ask you to leave him alone untill you are capable of coherant thinking."  

[Hiraru Sagara]

Devin followed keeping pace, his tongue still hanging from one side of his mouth.

"I am always capable of coherent thought, I'm just not always nice about it." Alyxis said standing up and pulling the sleeping bag around her shoulders. "However if you insist I will leave the bean pole alone. Don't given him anything until our fearless protectors get back, from where ever they are. We shouldn't trust anyone who approaches us right of the back." Alyxis turned away and started to build the fire back up.  

[Lord of the Aesir]

Tiberius moves to go away. "I...I'm sorry...I think I'd better..."  

[Tall Italian Boy]

Pyne heard Alyxis' voice as he started to slow down once he found them. He got his clothes without anyone noticing and turned back into human form. He put his clothes back on and then walked out into the opening. "Good morning Alyxis." He said with a smile.

 

[Lord of the Aesir]

Tiberius froze when Pyne walked into the opening.  

[Julia the Trickster]

Julia motioned to Tiberius to sit back down. "Don't worry Tiberius, just sit down, I will explain your presence."
