Shirts and pants? I can do that! She gobbled down a bit of something other than the sausages, stole a couple more from the plate with her toothpick, and hopped up to half-drag Haisyn out of the room. Fortunately for her, though perhaps not so fortunate for Hai, they were actually about the same size, although Ash was a bit longer in the leg and a couple of inches taller. Haisyn's pants were too long for her without her boots on though, so it worked out. You do have something safe to swim in, right?
Haisyn shook her resignedly. "'Course I do, sweets. I don't have much that isn't meant to last through some wear and tear."
Ash grinned evilly... in her mind, of course. She wasn't lucky enough to be able to grin without a mask yet. Maybe you should try wearing a dress sometime. Perhaps some handsome future colonist would be your puppy dog the way Uncle is for Merci'! She giggled.
Haisyn blushed slightly, but shook her head adamantly. "C'mon, Ash... You know I'm not good with people..."
Ash stopped, took Hai by both shoulders and looked her squarely in the eye. Maybe it wouldn't bother you so much if you'd actually try to be around people instead of hiding from them all the time. Now, lets to get changed so we can go swimming! And don't you dare try to get out of it, I'll pick you up and throw you in if I have to!
Haisyn laughed. "All right, all right!" Hai couldn't help but laugh. Ash was the only person she'd met since she left home that could cheer her so easily. She turned and called over her shoulder to the others, "Gee, Nika, Arti, we'll be back in a few minutes!"

Kataio F She grimaced slightly. Zahar was not used to sword play of any kind, unlike her sister. It was a few moments before she started to ask, "Do we have a bathing area? Or just the stream that we crossed? Also is there any bed frames or will we be making those as well. I believe that blankets we will have to make, correct?" Zahar looked about the small cabin. "we have to use the creek and as far as bedfraims go. i dont need one but i will see if i have time to make one in the next day or so. yeah, if you need blankets then we can make some. you must be tierd. tonight is a night under the stars. i will jsut be smelting bars so there wont be much noise just a clink when they are hard and ipop them out of thier respective molds." he then fired the forge to a level hot enough to smelt and began his work.

Zahar had watched him at first on a soft part in the grass. She was near enough to the fire to be still in the light. She wraped her cloak about herself and then layed down, with her head tilted to watch SK smelting his ore. Her mind was filled with many memories, she tried to avoid thinking about the most recent past in her old life. That's what it was, her old life. Zahar's mind wandered to the tune that her mother used to sing to her. Quietly she started to hum the song that was playing in her head. Unable to sleep at the moment she though that maybe this would help relax her overworked brain.

((I made a swimmin hole thread for those who wanted to go to the lake! Figured it would be easier to keep track of, and this way it's there for future use if we need it.))

She turned and called over her shoulder to the others, "Gee, Nika, Arti, we'll be back in a few minutes!" art watched them go and suddenly felt awkward being alone with these new people whom he did not know. he couldnt even bring himself to speak to the one whos mask was off and the other person, if he understoodthings right, wouldn't be able to understand him anyway. he looked around a bit and then shrank back from the two before him.

Kataio F Zahar had watched him at first on a soft part in the grass. She was near enough to the fire to be still in the light.

Her mind was filled with many memories, she tried to avoid thinking about the most recent past in her old life. That's what it was, her old life. Zahar's mind wandered to the tune that her mother used to sing to her. Quietly she started to hum the song that was playing in her head. Unable to sleep at the moment she though that maybe this would help relax her overworked brain. he looked to zahar and smiled slightly noticing her humming, "beautiful tune you are humming there lass. would you like to try to play the instrament i have? im sure you learned something of music in your time at the castle," he moved the cooling metal that was sitting in its molds to an area that would be safe to let it cool, "i have enough for your blade, or one of them depending on the size i choose. wish i had some... " he smirked and opened his eyes, "nevermind i have all that i need! you should rest lass. its been a long day."

Zahar sat up and looked at him. "May I ask you a favour?" She paused and looked around for moment or two. Mavrick had curled up close to where SK was working on the ore, but far enough away that if it splashed or if an ember jumped he would not be hit. Taking a deep breath she looked back to him. "Would you mindsitting closer to me when you are done? Or laying close to me?" She was worrying the cloak with her hands now. "I am still nervous in the dark and it would help me relax a bit if I knew you were close by. Even though with you there I Am sure nothing could harm me..."

he nodded and looked about the clearing. the glow the forge out of was bright enough for him to see everything before him all the way to the edgeof the clearing and even a tiny bit beyond that. zahar was a being of light however, "sure," he said, "leaset the forge puts off an niceorange glow. i do not know if i will sleep tonight. but i will come out there as soon as im done fixing the mallet thats in here," he came out with an iron mallet that was quite rust encrusted and picked up a stone and began rubbing the mettal to take off the rust flecks.

Zahar nodded and debated laying back down. "The forge does have a nice glow. I just am still not used to the darkness. With this newest change in my life I hardly feel like I am fully ready to tackle my fear tongiht. Tomorrow I should be a bit better, just rather shaken at this point in time." She could hear him working at the hammer and a shiver ran down her spin. Slowly Zahar laid herself down again. "Thank you again for your patience with me."

"bah!" he waved a dissmissing hand, "ive done nothing special at all lass. but for whatever you think i did you are more then welcome," he smiled while looking up from his work on the hammer then went back to dillegently taking off the rust. the tongs in there would be next. this part would be manotinous and long. maybe taking most of the night, "iar you tierd after your metamorphisis?"

Zahar looked up at the stars and nods slowly. "Yes quite... it is very taxing on the brain. Everything from my past flooded into my memory like a tidal wave. " Her eyes closed breifly. "I feel so tense. It is so much to take in all at once. Sorting through it mentally without knowing it." She rubbed her shoulders and neck absently.

He nodded, "then you should sleep lass. you look like you are sore. did you need a back rub or anytihng?" he asked absently while scratching away the rust. he was almost certain she would say no anyway.

Zahar turned a bit more orange again and laughed nervously. "I wish I could accept your offer but I do not believe that is quite proper. Even to just be a massage. Kasai and I were to be married and he hardly got a kiss out of me." The blush went deeper and she closed her eyes. "Let alone see as much of me as you already have." Absently she thought to herself, is not swimming naked with someone you do not hardly know more shameful then a little massage? Her hands rubbed at the fabric of her cloak as she thought to herself.

he stopped and looked up smileing, "i knew youd say that," and went back to work chucking, "tis why i could never have been a prince i any sence of the word. the restriciton placed upon your class are ludicris to say the least. your station demanded to much of you in my opinion. id be tempted to punch your father in the face for not letting his daughter be a daughter and not jsut a politcal prisoner in the form of a princess."

Zahar sat up quickly and looked toward SK. "My father hardly put the stress of my position on me. If anything he was trying to get my sister and I to be individuals. With Io running around like a wild girl someone had to show the people that we were not just a band ofwarriors with an iron fist. I had to show them that we had the literary smarts as well." She sighed lightly. "After mother died father had gone softer. He seemed to neglect some of his duties giving my sister to the warriors, and me to the accountants. We learned very seperate ways of life after that." One hand moved up and she started a small slow braid near the front of her face. "While she was out there in the feild with the men, I was brought up by the court ladies. It was not my fathers fault, they filled my head with such things." Her voice trailed off.
