Grem was lifted. In a strange distant way she was aware of being lifted 'but it is the nature of dreams to include such feelings into the web of your thoughts. She felt a human touch and blind instinct had taken her hand to his shoulder as he carried her. She thought she was small again and her father had taken her off to bed when she had fallen asleep in front of the fire.
Grem smiled. Daddy had always smelt of pipe smoke and aftershave. She took a deep breath through her nose and sighed as she relaxed against him. When he put her down she rolled onto her side and tucked her hands up under her head. She slept on..

((Welcome Back Grem!!))
*It has seemed night had fallen by the time she returned to the tavern, the light shined warmly in the distance welcoming her back home. The cold air embraced her and she double checked the brown parcel under her arm before briskly walking up the path. Her contact, luckily, had returned from his voyage and was able to provide her with her shipment. It had been a long day for Rhodes and she sighed deeply when she opened the tavern door and took a seat next to the fireplace.*

Grem smiled in her sleep then laughed and rolled back the other way. one hand hanging out from beneath the blanket nearly touches the floor

*Yawns then takes a look around the room. She notices some old faces and Fire scratch her nose. Rhodes sniffs then directs her attention to the fireplace*

*Synge continued to run on, very much enjoying herself but of course starting to feel the physical affects of running. She immediately noticed the cliff nearby but didn't seem concerned with the dangerous drop. Instead she peered out over the cliff's drop for a moment in a curious manner, but quickly set her eyes back to Ksi, she didn't want to lose sight of him and get lost in an unfamiliar area. As the seagulls wisk by Synge takes another quick moment to watch their movement as they gliding through the chilled air. When she brought her eyes back to Ksi she noticed that he was picking up speed again, quite a bit actually. Testing me? If so, this was a test she accepted fully and she immediately picked up the pace in order to catch him. This was a speed she had been able to sprint in the past, but it wasn't something she would be able to do for long, especially since much of her strength had been used already. Still, she was determined to at least come close to catching him before being forced to break. Keeping her gaze locked on Ksi she focused on feeling light. This was something she always tried to do while running, something she had always considered close to flying. All her clumsiness seemed to vanish as her legs worked to acheive her goal. Only a moment or so after she found herself running next to Ksi she forced herself to slow to a stop. She didn't want to stop, she was having fun running. However, she knew that her body wouldn't too happy if she pushed herself too hard. Leaning forward a bit, she rested her hands on her knees and caught her breath. Her words were seperated by deep breathes.*
You're...fast...
*Bringing her body back up to a standing position, she smiled.*

Gremlina Grem was lifted. In a strange distant way she was aware of being lifted 'but it is the nature of dreams to include such feelings into the web of your thoughts. She felt a human touch and blind instinct had taken her hand to his shoulder as he carried her. She thought she was small again and her father had taken her off to bed when she had fallen asleep in front of the fire. Grem smiled. Daddy had always smelt of pipe smoke and aftershave. She took a deep breath through her nose and sighed as she relaxed against him. When he put her down she rolled onto her side and tucked her hands up under her head. She slept on.. *Aykon couldn't help but blush a bit at this strange behavior. This was not exactly what he was hoping to accomplish, he had just wanted to get Grem in out of the coming night.*
*He gently placed Grem on the couch, attempting to not disturb her.*-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rhodes *It has seemed night had fallen by the time she returned to the tavern, the light shined warmly in the distance welcoming her back home.

The moment Synge stops running, so does Ksi. He turns to face her and crosses his arms with a small smile.
Thanks, but I have an unfair advantage. This is like child’s play to me, so don’t let it get to you. If I told you how fast I could really run, you’d probably be surprised. However, I would like to try something. Once you catch your breath, let’s try a sprint. I want to see your max running speed with all of your energy. Then we’ll continue our normal jog, sound good?
He then stands a few feet to Synge’s side, and faces the direction they’ll be running. Then he starts tapping the toe of his boot, bending his knee and lifting his foot, and then bringing the top of the toe down into the dirt to make sure his boot is snug.
Don’t worry, I’ll keep it to human capability, for now. We’ll see how you compare to an Olympic runner, heh. This’ll help give me a good idea for how fast you currently are, which will help with your training. Count us off when you’re ready and we’ll go on three. We’ll dash to my marker.
Ksi snaps his fingers and points up ahead and a blue field of light appears about thirty yards away.

*Gently waves back to Aykon with a small smile, she wondered if perhaps she had been a bit short with him out in the garden but decided to push that out of her mind for the time being, she would get to talk to him later.*

*Synge continues to smile as she works to catch her breath and restore her energy. She raised an eyebrow as she wondered just how fast Ksi was. The sprint sounded simple enough, and she was interested to see how fast she could run as well. It had been a while since she had tested herself like this. Last time she checked, she could get faster than the two of them had run a few moments ago, but she wasn't in as good of shape as she was then.*
Alright, that sounds like something I can do. Keeping it to human capability? Gee, thanks.
*She smirked at this comment, to show she was joking with you. She found that way the you so casually threw that comment out there to be amusing. Able to breathe regularly now, Synge knelt down and tightened the laces of her boots, just to be sure. Finishing the job with the tight knotted bows, she stood back up all the way. She looked out to where the blue marker was shining, wondering how far the distance was, she had always been a terrible judge of space. Setting herself beside you, she readied herself for the sprint. When you appeared to be ready as well, she began the countdown.*
Alright. One...two...three!
And we're off!

*Fire slightly lifts her hand and waves in Aykon's direction. She then jumps off the her stool and walks over to him*
Do you think it would be much trouble if I wanted you to make me some hot chocolate? Nikki left afterall so I figure I would be nice and ask you, instead of doing it myself like I was rude of something!
*Fire frowned at her words and waited for Aykon's responce*

Grem opened her eyes and found the back of the couch was an inch away from her nose. She blinked once with obvious confusion then sat up sharply . The blanket she had had covering her slid gently to the floor
"Oh my.. who? how? "
Twists around to look over the back of the couch and then slowly surveys the room

Rhodes *Gently waves back to Aykon with a small smile, she wondered if perhaps she had been a bit short with him out in the garden but decided to push that out of her mind for the time being, she would get to talk to him later.* *Aykon smiles a reassuring smile to you as if he almost knew what was on your mind but this time it wasn't through foul play.*-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fire_Kracker *Fire slightly lifts her hand and waves in Aykon's direction. She then jumps off the her stool and walks over to him* Do you think it would be much trouble if I wanted you to make me some hot chocolate? Nikki left afterall so I figure I would be nice and ask you, instead of doing it myself like I was rude of something! *Fire frowned at her words and waited for Aykon's responce* *For a moment, Aykon looks a bit confused, it is almost felt as if what was being said in jest but she wasn't smiling so he was a bit perplexed.. Without much ado, he shakes his head and walks to the bar*Of course I can make you some hot cocoa, Heather. By the way, I wouldn't really consider it rude if you wanted to make it yourself but it does kind of defeat the service of the place if everyone does it by their self. But don't worry, I will make you some. *Aykon smiles, he was obviously happy that you two had been able to talk without splitting hairs. He then goes behind the counter and begins boiling some water.*Just a second, Heeather. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gremlina Grem opened her eyes and found the back of the couch was an inch away from her nose. She blinked once with obvious confusion then sat up sharply . The blanket she had had covering her slid gently to the floor "Oh my.. who? how? " Twists around to look over the back of the couch and then slowly surveys the room *Aykon looks over to Grem as he prepares the hot cocoa and seems happy she is awake.*Hey there Grem! Nice to see you. You know, asking for a room is much safer than falling asleep on the front porch! Oh, and your boots are right there next to the couch. Would you like some cocoa? *He smiles and continues working on the hot cocoa before he realizes his situation*-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *He looks out to Rhodes and speaks loud enough for her to hear him*Hey Rhodes! Would you like any hot cocoa?

*Hot chocolate did sound like it would warm her up. She breathed lightly on her hands trying to warm(although with a lack of breath it didn't do any good) them before speaking.*
"Yeah hot coco sounds nice hun, do you want any help?"
*She hears a voice from a couch near to her and look over in surprize.*
"Well hello there Grem! It's been a long time since I have seen you.How have you been?"
