Leiko had to stop just past the doorway to sneeze a few times at the smell of glue. She looked at him with confusion still on her face as he tied the string to her leg, but kept with him easily enough as he lead her to the first desk.
Her curiousity was soon seen as she kept herself from untying the twine and gonig off to explore the giant room. It was big and he said there were memories. Were they the memories that he didnt like, and made him look so sad?
She carefully took the cap he handed her, sniffing the liuid curiously. Mimicking him, she raised her cap with a "Cheers" as well before tasting this new liquid.

Matasoga took a long, deep drink as he openned a book marked 2007-2008 on the cover.
"The guild was founded towards the end of 06, but we weren't very diligent about saving pictures until about a year later," he said. "This was Christmas of 07."
"Back then it was called 'Matasoga's Lovelies.' It was just the girls and I," he said, smiling nostalgically. "Eventually I wanted to expand, so I included the males, too, but that wasn't until 2008. It was Matasoga's Lovelies for two years."
Matasoga turned a page. There was a full page image of himself with an arm around a girl with long, wavy blonde hair and deep, dark brown eyes. Both were laughing in a way that Leiko probably wouldn't associate with Matasoga.
He pulled his lower lip into his mouth and bit down slightly. His body tensed, visibly. He took a long blink and sighed, deeply.

She moved to sit where she could see both his face and the pictures he showed her. Leiko took a bigger drink of her capful and leaned against his hand.
"Shes why you dont look like that anymore, isnt she? Shes why you drink this stuff." She added, holding up the cap.

Matasoga closed his eyes once more and drew a deep breath, before slowly releasing it in another sigh. He paused, brushed the hair from his face, openned his eye to look at her again. The words of their parting echoed once more through his mind. How could you?
He nodded his head. Two swift, slight nods were his silent answer.

 [[Akima]] Akima's footsteps, unrecognizable and inconsistant could be heard turning into the room where Matasoga and Leiko reminisced. An uncharacteristic giggle erupted from Akima and she found herself leaning over the desk looking up at them with a silly smile curled on her lips. Her ebony hair is tossled slightly, and the redness in her skin had completely faded except for maybe a hint on her cheeks unassociated with the sun. "Hello." She said, giggling a little bit more. Her body swayed for moment, and her unfocused eyes dropped down to the page that they had opened briefly. "Did... Did you guys... did you guys know that... that..." She inturrupts herself in a small fit of laughter. "That... oh, nevermind. I lost it." A big smile graces her features that is just as silly, and she bares her sharp pointed teeth that were anything but human.

Her lean turned into a hug as she tried to wrap harms around the back of his hand. Her head was quick to turn as another entered the room. It was the girl from before. Leiko was about to get up and go to her, when the girl started acting funny.
"Matasga, whats wrong with her? She's acting funny." She asked, looknig up at the bigger man. A quick glance at Akima's small sharp teeth caused Matasoga to feel a tiny tremor from the fairy's body as she gripped his arm tighter, no lnoger just a hug.

He was happy to have the moment alone with Leiko, but found that it was to be short lived.
Yes, she certainly is acting odd, Matasoga thought, one eyebrow raised.
His eyes passed over the bottle of mead as they went to Akima, whose appearance he took in for a few moments, he flush, he giggle , and her big goofy smile (which, being fanged himself, intimidated Matasoga not in the least.)
I didn't know that she was capable of any of these, Matasoga thought as his eyes traveled back to the mead. He leaned in closer and with fully dilated nostrils he took in the scent of her breath and indeed smelled alcohol, more mead by the smell of it.
Don't be afraid, Little Leiko, Matasoga said to her, telepathically. This is just what happens when you drink a little too much mead, or perhaps have it for the first time.
He pat her back with a fingertip as he stood and said "Easy, there Akima. You may not want to be on the stairs just now. Feeling alright?"
He approached with a particularly easy posture, not knowing exactly how booze would affect her, either as an individual or as an alien.

[[Akima]] Akima seemed oblivious of the exchange, as her mind wasn't it's usually probing self inside of other presences like Leiko. Her teeth hid themselves away in her silly smile, and she watched pleasantly as Matasoga approached, not paying any attention to his caution, that a sober Akima would've picked up on no matter how discreet. "Ah, well. I'm fine. Don't worry about tha stairs. We've already rumbled." Akima comments with her response slow and almost thoughful. She had clear articulation despite how intoxicated she was, and she tries to lean on the desk, in attempt to act "cool" like one of the younger disciples had showed her. She could only pull off awkward especially when one connected her usual demeanor with her drunken one. "Oh my." She sighed softly. "I never want meade again."

Leiko jumped as she heard him in her head instead of with her ears, and looked at him with round eyes. Things just kept getting so werid since she left her home! As he moved towards Akima she clung to him, still tied to him.
His statement was verified in her head with Akima's comment of no more meade and she shook her head and pointed towards Akima, looking up at Matasoga. "If I turn like that, I dont want anymore. I like honey by itself."

"The reactions get gentler, after your first time with it," he explained. "Are you feeling ill? If so, then you should go lie down, but make sure you do so on your stomach, with your mouth over the side of the bed, in case it comes back on you. Feel free to take the elevator."
He stood about an arms-length, talking gently.

[[Akima]] Akima didn't feel sick in the least, only charmingly light... or heavy headed, she couldn't decipher the distinctions. Her eyes flicker towards the faery with a raised eyebrow. She suddenly wanted to go catch a bird, because that was the first thought that came into her head when she looked at Leiko. In her drunkenness, she didn't quite grasp that Matasoga wanted her to leave them alone, but it didn't matter, she was off towards the stairs, and probably would've been if he hadn't said anything. When she exited the room, it was only a few minutes before one could hear a small 'Oh' and the sound of a body tumbling down the stairs. The tumbling noise was short, so it is safe to say that she at least made it halfway down the stairs before she did whatever it was that made her fall. Her uneven footsteps disappear into the rooms below.

((They're already in the lowest basement, with the exception of the sealed catacombs. Was her fall audible?))

Leiko winced and started to fly up, forgetting about the twine for a moment. She stopped though, feeling weird herself. She let herself float back down to his hand, blinking rapidly. While Matasoga and Akima needed a fairly large amount to get intoxicated. The capful she had been given was the same strength as theirs, making it stronger to her tiny body.
Leiko looked up at him, a pink tinge to her skin.
"I think...I feel funny..."

Matasoga put his palm beneath her so that she could drift down into it, if she liked. "It hits you a little harder the first time, dear, just like I said, before. Would you like to take your larger form? You should feel nothing, that way," he told her.

She nodded at his idea and sat down, fumbling to untie the twine on her ankle so she could fly slightly unsteadily off of his hand. Once done she did so, and soon stood before him, at only 4 feet high.
Looking at the book they had glanced at earlier she started slowly thuming through it.
