Moon nodded. "Right."
He watched his brother with some concern, wondering how long this affect would last. "We'll look for Bode first before we decide to emply the help of others, especailly the Oracle. We'd have to do a task for her first, and who knows if we'de have the time or resorces to do it." He patted his brother on the back. "I'll go search in deep water, you see if you can find her with those little whisps of yours. When you have the strength of course."

Malik noted that she paid attention at his twitching and shifting. well hell. the wine didn't do all that much to her, now did it. so he was calm, and nodded at her and stayed put. what was taking her so long with Broog.
Broog gave her a big smile, and then gathered her in a hug.
"Tankies Miztress! wez be guds and not eats too much."
Tremor merely rolled his eye, and nodded to teh other two.
Onyx nodded, and walked, with his brothers support, to the stables and layed on Ironsdies, who was at present also snoozing. being outside didn't seem to bother him at all, did it.
"Sounds like a good plan. I just wish I knew what he hit me with. So next time it won't hurt so much."

Piper gave a little laugh and wriggled her way out of Broog's hold, giving him a little pet on the head again. "Good boy." And she turned from him, walking past Kieran and motioning him to follow. "You just play along, okay?" And heading back to where Malik was and halfway there she cleared her throat and turned a look over her shoulder to her father. "I don't know why you have to babble so much...honestly..."
Oh well he supposed that was his cue. And he merely shrugged, giving a laugh and playing along. "I'm a scholor. Whereas you're still young and adventure is adventure, my adventure is my pursuit of knowledge. If I happen to get over zealous with questons and babble...well then I babble. Though I wouldn't call it babble...more of lengthy musing.
Wine affect her? Not at all...she'd been drinking the stuff since she was five. And she always drank it slow too. Though she did have a staisfied smile when Malik stopped his fidgeting. Nope, this wasn't so bad at all now was it? Then a blink and a look over at the apparent chastising of ne elf to another, seeing red and blue coming back. Hey look, she had done a good job!

Moon helped his brother down, and then straighted up, looking in the direction of Deep Water. At elast he had soemthing to do to get him out of the house now, didn't he?
"Maybe it was just a physical manifestion of Simon's anger. Or distress...either would work I think." He shrugged, put two fingers to his forehead and saluted. "Wish me luck, brother. I will see you in a little while." He took a jump, and spread his wings to catch an updraft.

Malik noted Piper and Kieran, and grinned lightly. so that's what had taken so long. Kieran playing scholar, probably examining and questioning Tremor to no end. So he relaxed a bit, and drummed his fingers on teh arm of the chair, though his sword hand kept twitching.
"Welcome back you two. I take you your father finds Tremor and Broog together overly fascinating?"
Onyx chuckled lightly and waved at his brother's salute.
"See you then, and I hope you find something to let us know what's going on. and I still plan on wringing his neck, just do you know."
Broog was already pleased, and one could tell by servants bringing a keg of alcohol, and about six or seven trays of food. he was goign to feast, becuase he'd been a good boy, kept the secret Piper wanted him to, and made her ring perfectly.

Piper laughed softly. "Very much so...and you know how he is with his questions and the like. Has to look, has to touch, has to ask. He had a regular little field day though." A thoughful look from her before she moved over to Malik, plopping across his lap. "I quite literally had to drag him away." Piper took up Malik's twitching hand, taking to massaging it. She didn't like to see his hand twitching like that at all. "But I see you've bahaved yourself..." A look to the girl, giving a nod and she promptly got up with her glass and scurried off to do whatever she could find to do.
"Well...I wouldn't say you literally dragged me away...I think you were just doing a lot of pulling and fussing really." He was going to play as well. Hey it was fun and the lie was all in good cause as well.

Malik relaxed some more, seeing as piper was on his lap, and massaging his hand. the two scars long since permenant from Malvolence's bite there to see. but at least she was stopping the twitching.
"Yes I behaved. I didn't try to intimidate her or scare or off and force her to go someplace else so I could chase after you or go after you know what."
better not to mention the naem until teh twitching at least stopped on it's own.
"So, Kieran. what do you think of the new armor and weaponsmith..Tarathiel had him delivered...think he's worth keeping or do you think something's fishy about it?"

"Duely noted."
Moonstone took his time flying to Deep Water. He was already exausted from flying aorund the fortress for that very purpose, and his didn't want to loose himself to the blacky depths of the water beneath him. Rest stops littered his way, once even taking a short nap.
Eventually, he made it to deepw ater. First, he'd check the inn that the five of them stayed at, and then the crumbled arena. The the stables where they met Bode in the first place.

She leaned against him, resting her head against his shoulder as she kept her attentions to his hand. Musing to herself..and ha, withtout that sword he couldn't drop into her head either. "She's a good girl...one of my favorties actually." Yes she had a favorite. Then one hand stopped at his and she pressed a finger to her lips. "Sh, we don't mention or think about the "M thing" just like we don't mention the "C thing"." And his hand go the attention of both of hers again.
Well at least he could be truthful. " His work is grand really, more so when combined with Broog's own talents. A beautiful mix of function and elegance...any warrior would be proud to have items of such quality." All of that gathered from the one blade he saw them working on. Though that thinking look came to him. "Well...he wears a collar so he's no threat I would say...and he seems fairly content to do his work. As long as the Captain didn't take care to turn that collar into say a bomb or anything, I think all is well." A tilt of his head. "But best to watch him for a while, caution proves valuable."

He nodded ligthly, and let her massage his hand, before closing it arounf hers lightly.
"That's enough..it's not twitchign anymore."
A small grin and a kiss to her nose.
"so what was it you were having Broog do for you? somethign to go with your dress or the like?"
Onyx laid there for a bit, before feeling his strength recover enought to at least walk aroudn without looking like he was about ato collapse. and he untied Ironsides, and just because, was insistatn on tryingto get past Serino to put him in a stall of his own. be damned if his mount was going to sleep outside while everyone else's got to go inside.

She entwined their fingers, nuzzling at his neck and pressing a kiss to dark blue flesh in a show of affection and also a little bit of stalling to quickly form a fib in her head. "Mmm...something like that. What with you turning me into a wife and all, and my wanderlusting days being over I'd say that grants me a little leeway to dress myself up some. And think of all the shiny things you can take off of me." Piper ran a hand through her hair, tucking back a few strands of silver and red from her face seeing as she lacked her bandana to keep it all at bay. "And I was thinking about maybe something to mark my slaves from yours rather than just the lack of collars...but I don't know if I want to create that type of division between mine and yours." Her hand smoothed out an non existant wrinkle in her dress.
Oh she was good when she had to be wasn't she? He shoved hsi hands in his pockets, only to pull one hand back out, holding cinnamon sticks. Oh right, Piper put those there during thier little trip to Broog since she lacked pockets. Those got set on a nearby table and Kieran took a seat himself, watching the two a moment. Hm...Fianna was going to take this hard...
Oh no, you're not getting in. She's happy, she's calm, she's being nice...you let that thing in here and she won't be a happy nightmare anymore. Thus Serino was staring down Onyx and Ironsides. When Onyx did try something a well done gust of wind was his reward...or rather punishment. A snort and a flick of his ears at the vah and his lizard. She'll eat him, I swear she will.

"Indeed. many thigns to take off of you."
A chuckle and he pressed his lips to her, holding her hand with his and smiled at her softly.
"as for your slaves...I think beig collarless is enough. though they all have so far been well behaved and controlled. to which I applaud you."
Then a look over to Kieran.
"I do have one question about Fianna. would you prefer she roomed with you, or that we arrange for another room to be readied for her. as piper tells me you spend a great deal of time apart...I don't wnat to make assumtions and have her more uncomfrotable than she obviously will be."
Onyx stared right back at Serino, and kept trying. Ironsides was standing still, mouth open and breathing heavily, which coudl sound like laughter if you thought to listen in that manner.

Wait...did she just commit herself to actually getting even moreso girled up? Damn...on the other hand, it could in fact be fun. There was some truth to her lie seeing as she was indeed falling out of old ways to accomidate a new life. And a smile at him. "I told you I had my reasons and that you had to slack the reins. I stick by my words." Yes she was indeed proud of herself. "Which is why I decided against it...no need to have fights or something between them all. I'm a smart girl when I want to me, Mr. D'vinn."
Kieran held up a finger. "We only spend so much time apart because we have kigdoms to run that just happen to be on opposite ends of Andal...otherwise we'd be inseperable. She'll room with me...Gods know I probably won't be able to pry the dear thing off my side anyway. Besides...it'd be nice to spend time with her, seeing as it's been a good several months now since I've seen her. Believe me, she'll be more comfortable with me than on her own...despite how angry she may be at me for this all." And a thoughful look, the gold in his eyes giving the barest flick of gold as if they wanted to do it but were trying not to.
Serino nickered at the lizard, scraping a hoof against the floor. Yes, he was touching ground right now. Cocky little reptile...go on, underestimate her. She liked to stomp on things that make her unhappy, even Malik. And don't bring the place down then none of us will hae a place and there was guarentee Nightmare wouldn't be happy. No, Serino was standing hsi ground...least Nighmare wake up from her little nap and give them all hell. If you're going to try and get in at least bring the mare a peace offering...a snort from him.

"As I very well know. so what kind of other jewelry were you thinking about, Piper?"
His hand rested on her thigh, the other supporting her back, and gave a nod to Kieran about Fianna.
"Then she'll stay with you, and that will be the room servants are instructed to take her to upon arrival if she wants."
Onyx snorted and crossed his arms.
"Let us in Serino, or I'll roar. adn you know that'll wake up your napping lady friend over there. Ironsdies is quite, he'll just sit in his stable and be a good boy. Won't you big fella?"
Ironsdies mouth closes witha slurp sound as he drew in his tongue, looking to Onyx like 'huh? oh yeah. right.' then back to Serino, and plopping down on his stomach to wait to see what was going to happen.
