"Well..most times. Can't help myself really."
A slight chuckle and a smirk, getting up and ushering children towards food and drinks.
"and remember Isle, you have a date with the vault later. and don't be trying to seduce the help...I know how much you like that color skin. at least not yet. let them get a few moments before you pounce on them."

He pretty much knew what she was going to do when she had placed that ice in it's specific spot. Those stitches had been in for a good long while, it was probably indeed time for them to come out. And yes, stitches were never a joy to take out, but he didn't make a single sound of discomfort. Perhaps the occassional tightening of hands into fists, but that was all. Even with the ice numbing his skin beforehand it was irritating. When she was done, h elet out a breath he didn't know he'd been holding. "Better to go ahead and get such things over with. Besides, not the easiest thing to deal with everyday." Reaching a hand up and lightly running his fingers over where stitches had once been..ugh he felt the need to scrub his face clean now...probably needed to anyway. But he turned his attention back to her sensibilties. "It's alright, don't be upset about it."
"I took my own joy in acting like the child he was trying to make me out to be. It was quite fun...and I only did it in moderation, so don't even start harassing me about acting like a child just to spite him. Mother thought it quite amusing." A chuckle at that.
"Yes, well...it's not a bad thing. After all, I get to leech off of that too and most times it's quite enjoyable now isn't it?" Giving him one of those looks before the whole pack of them headed downstairs, plopping in various seats and such.
Isle rolled her eyes and gave a giggle, indeed walking away from one of the guards that she had indeed been flirting with, much to said help's amusement and intrigue. "Aw, you ruin my fun but I'll be good. Besides I'm getting a present out of this so I might as well. Till then, I say bring on the wine."

She knew that he knew what was coming and she felt awful for doing it to him. He was one of the best patients in some aspects but to her, it was awful that he never uttered a word of complaint or sound of pain. It hurt her all the more that she didn't know just how much she was hurting him. Running her fingers through his hair lightly, she nodded. "I'm not, I just hate doing things like that to you." Taking his hand, she slipped off his lap and tugged him up. "Now I can make it better." Leading him into the dining room, she pushed him into a chair, the dining room all set up with candles and a table, then coming back and bearing steak, baked potatoes, and wine. Setting it all down and then lighting the candles in the center of the table and handed him a glass. "Here you are Lord Inthara."
"No lectures out of me. I'm here to drink and make merry. It may be night impossible to get me to a party but once I'm there, I'm just about impossible to get away from them." He popped the bottle of wine on the table and poured various glasses, passing them around. "I propose a toast." Lifting his glass he chuckled, "To Sevilin and Zahara on their special day as well as the future children that they will no doubt have. Also to all of those gathered here today. Congratulations to us on a job well done and last of all, to Malik and Piper D'vinn, to being right."

"Yes, well...no one said that health was fun or that a healer's job was easy. Just be pleased that I'm actually being good about all of this and not ruining all the healing you keep doing. Besides, I'm just fine and you know I am." Then letting her lead him into the kitchen, where he was pushed down and sitting again, only to have lo and behold his favorite dinner plopped in front of him. Amazing that he had a favorite meal, but she knew it anyway. "Well, you pulled out all the stops. I dare say that I feel lazy, knowing you've done all this cooking and thus have been working on a day you really shouldn't be."
Piper gave a chuckle and turned a look to her husband. "See, we get a toast and everything. The incessant nagging and pushing and conjoling eventually paid off. Glad to get the recognition for it." Oh yes, she was a pleased elf indeed. Things were looking up for her. Zahara was married off now and finally admitting things and getting things together, Piper herself had her means of producing children in at least a reasonable timeframe were back in her posession and she was right. Good times.

She laughed softly and handed him half a glass of wine then sat down across from him. Wving her hand for a moment she took to cutting up her steak. "I love doing it so it's really not work. Besides, it's my wedding and the only way to make sure it went exactly as I wanted it too, was to do part of it myself. And to be honest, I was really nervous this morning. Cooking helped settle my nerves." She could say that sort of thing to him and know he wouldn't take it wrong. "I know you did all of that for me, so I wanted to do something for you too. Thus here it all is."

Well the wedding came and gone, though still to the elf he felt like it was a really beautiful wedding, at least now he could see both drow as a couple rather than just two separate elves with a child; but still he was happy to see them standing together and tie the knot in both literal and figurative way.
So now it was time for the after party, and since a few good elves were here Arthur was thinking that it was going to be one fine after party, after all the one he had on the surface was still a very good memory to go back to. So he grabbed a cup of wine and took a small sip, didn't want to get drunk too fast now did he? Though of course his eyes drifted to Isle, it has been a bit since he last saw her and she was still in a bubbly mood like she always was. Smiling lightly he gave a small nod to the elf when thier eyes met before heading over to the food, time to pick a little.

Wine, usually not his drink of choice but he could make an exception tonight. After all, it was thier wedding day/night so it was okay to let loose a little bit. Though she at least gave him half a glass, mindful of his drinking habits. Wasn't she sweet? She always did that, those little mindful things. "I suppose so. And tomorrow, I'm sure I'll be cleaning everything tomorrow or soon enough." Shaking his head lightly. "Still don't see why you were nervous, you like attention focused on you after all. But the effort is very much appreciated Sweetheart." Before a chuckle and a look to her again. "We'll be eating cake for weeks, won't we?"
Yes she noted Galsen looking to her and she returned his gestures before taking a sip of her wine, setting the glass down on the table before tucking silvery white strands behind her ears. Well, he didn't seem too bda off since he came back now did he? Eye looked well and everything to boot.

Malik gave a small grin.
"feel free. this is the potent stuff...I imagine your surface systems will find underdark wines, especially such older than myself, to be quite enjoyable. but I hope everyone enjoys thier dining. after all Zahara and the staff slaved away at this all morning."
A slight chuckle there.
"At least her cooking is preferable to her runnign away from getting a bit of cold feet."

By the time he finished walking around the table Arthur had a small plate of finger food to have before he decided to dive right into the main dishes, he just wanted to pace himself before taking everything to himself by fork or spoon. Still when he was done his eyes traveled to Isle again, heck she wasn't chatting to anyone so why not waltz on over and have a good conversation? It's been a bit since they last saw each other anyway.
So in a few quick steps the elf was beside the blue ear tipped surface elf with a small smile as he set his glass and plate on the table. "Hello Isle, it's good to see you again...what have you been up to lately?"

"Yes you will because I ripped you away before you scrubbed hte miniscule chocolate spots out of your grout." They ate rather leisurely considering it was a special occasion and there were things to talk about and an ambience just to bask in. "Yes but you have to admit it was a scary thought to know that I was sealing myself into this bond for all eternity. That does sound a bit daunting." She finished her own meal and then walked over and settled on his lap. "You weren't even a little worried? All those things that I'd been taught my entire life about drow and love just kept whispering through my mind." She laughed softly and kissed him, then rested her head against his shoulder. "Probably but you like cake so that's alright."
Lateef laughed, "If it even was a case of cold feet. People have various reactions to special occasions after all. I wrote a four part harmony teh night before my wedding and added a fifth the next morning. Humming it got me down the aisle to the altar." He sipped his wine and then chuckled, "Then again we all had bets on whether or not you were going to get cold feet and desert Piper at the altar so there you go."

"Oh really. you think I'd have jumped ship after the hell I went through getting that wedding setup? come on now."
A slight chuckle.
"Though, just for fun, exactly who was betting on which end of that wager? and how much?"

"Wrote it and I had to be the one to read over it and tell you more than a dozen times that it was very lovely." A chuckle though at the betting pool. "I won and it was more of a 'you do this if this happens' wager. I said that she would beat you for it if you didn't show up." And then a shrug. "It's been known to happen. Men do things to please women that are extravagent...and then get cold feet.
It was still amusing when he spoke of such things as delicate surface tastes in accordance with the so to speak iron clad tastes of the underdark. Because well, she was the exception and it was just fun knowledge. She could put back a whole bottle no problem. Just an amusing thing for her. But yes a chuckle at the mentioning of bets around the table. "He's right, I would of hurt you. I don't think I would of let you get away with that one. And you're all horrible for that."
She turned a look to him as he decided to change seats at the table so that he was closer to her than he previously was. "I'm surprised. I've been here hours and this is the first time to you speak to me. I think I should feel wounded." Same old Isle, twisting things around in her own way for humor value. But a shrug. "Same old things I guess. After all, you know how I am, just running around and getting into trouble."
"Yes there is that, but being run around on Piper's whim and sense of time was a good distraction from all of that incomplete cleaning anxiety. I'm sure I'll get up earlier than usual and just start all over again with it anyway. Just saving cleaning supplies this way." Shrugging lightly but not in uncaring manner. "I suppose for one not used to being bound in any sense, yes." Merely wrapping an arm around her as she came to plop in his lap, his free hand raising up to brush through her hair and lightly touch at the braid she'd put in it before letting that hand rest on her thigh lightly. "Worried about what? You having second thoughts? Perhaps a little, but at the same time I know that despite what you may think, you're going to do what your inner passion for life tells you to do." But a laugh then, lightly nuzzling at her. "Zykariel will be excited. Cake every night."

A small chuckle and he shook his head a little, Isle was still her plain old self which made the elf happy of course; he just missed these kinds of moments where she had to go and twist things around, always wanted to get something out of it for her own amusement, he had missed that after he came back to the fortress. "Well I came right before the wedding started so I didn't know you were here." He said with a small smile before taking a sip of his wine.
"Aw come on, there must be something else rather than 'same old things' and whatnot, after all you are the one and only Isle! Fun could be your middle name really." Though he smiled again and this time he laughed a little. "Well as long as you are alright then it doesn't matter if you get into some sort of trouble, besides you got your ways of getting out of it anyway." Another light chuckle to that before taking a small nibble on what he ot to eat. "So how is Luccan and Kyst? Bet they join with you to cause some mayhem right?"

She felt the braid whisper against her cheek lightly and her lips curved. Piper had been right, it was perfect that she'd put the braid in before which made an undeniable statement. She truly was an Inthara now. It was nice to think about in that way and she merely relaxed against him, content to sit there and talk. She took sips from her wine glass and let the flavor coat her tongue, then ran her fingers through his hair lightly. "My inner passion for life...I like that." Pausing for a moment to mull that over. "Yes and that would have taken me down that aisle even if it meant I only got one day with you, which I'm really glad isn't going to happen." She took another moment to just be then lifted her head and tapped him on the chin. "Our perfect world has already begun."
"Happens more often than you might think, D'vinn. Men don't get into the whole wedding jamboree. It's so elaborate and final. And then there's the horrible thought that you may get down that aisle and have her standing there but when they cast the magic, the gold never appears. I've seen that happen as well. Or there's the factor that she might leave you at the altar and then you'll be a sorry sap getting sympathetic glances. Thinking too much before walking down the aisle is a very dangerous thing."

"Come now lateef. you know me better than that I would hope. when I decide to do something, I do it. even if no golden aura had shown, I'd married her on principle alone. I chose her, she chose me, and that's all that matters. besides, as a Tier'dal...when such events occur the idea of someone backing out is virtually unheard of. it's unhealthy for the one doing the backing out, if you get my meaning."
though a slight smirk.
"Speaking of family things...anyone want to place a wager on the odds of me getting Kieran's father down here to visit his great grandson?"
