Piper laughed lightly, she knew that look from Nightmare, petting at her nose a moment before she leaned back on her elbows against the stall. But as far as the mare's irritation, she ignored it. Just because Malik was gonna lay claim to one didn't mean Piper was going to let him get his paws on one so soon. She knew he would be good about it. A smile to him. "I figured you'd want that one, it's the warmonger in you. But the choice is fine with me." She nodded at him but more so nothing in particular...then her mood got a bit more serious. "Promise me that you won't step on my toes Malik...let me handle what I've taken responsibity for..." Yes she was back to that again for the moment. "I know I go about it all in a long drawn out probably annoying and seemingly inefficent way...but you know I come through."

"I promise. I won't step on toes...adn if I do accidentally, feel free to tell me to back off. and I never said you go about it like that. but your ways are different than mine. mostly becuase of our racial differences. But I won't interfere with you. by the way, have you noticed anything unusual yet about those..souless slaves we have? I haven't noticed anything yet. but I still don't trust them much considering where they came from."

"Thank you. But racial differences has nothing to do with it, it's personality dearest. I'm just more cheery and personable to everyone and you're...well you don't like anybody but me really, but that's all the more endearing I guess. And no, I haven't." And she clapped a hand over his mouth. "And that's business talk, aren't you supposed to be grounded, D'vinn?" She liked messing with him. And of course messing with him was a good indicator to her mood as well. "Find anything out about your sword other than we were given a flashy light show?" A little gust of wind from Serino and she sideglanced him.

he rolld his eyes lightly at her hand on his mouth.
"yes, yes I know. I'm grounded. and racial difference do come into play. my people kill annoynaces. yours work around or through them. thus we handle situations differently according to teh society we were raised in."
A slight grin, but a nod.
"It's effects are like the Ghoulbane sword in my vault. upon impacting the undead, it sears through thier body with kind of a...lightning bolt of holy energy, you could say. other than that, there are a few tricks that it can do. with focus, I can in a direct line, send the holy energy at something. and if I stick it in teh ground..it seems to creat soem kind of shielding. maybe with practice it coudl cover more than just me, but I didn't really see much to it. a necromancer pet walked through it."
A shrug.
"Maybe it hurt they thing, if it could register pain."

"I wouldn't chalk me up with the rest of my kind so easily, A'mael. You know better than that or right now we'd be having a very awkward moment I think." She lisented to him talk about his new toy with a smile. "So in other words, it works. Or in the very least will help accomplish a goal to..." She stopped. "Ah, you almost got me started..." If she talked about work that gave him liscense to. Or maybe she could do it just to mess with him for the fun of it. And she probably would, but Piper knew there was just a bit too much tension around everyone for teasing perhaps. A hand in her pocket and she pulled out a cinnamon stick, chewing on it a moment. Eh she could venture business a little more. "Still considering asking for Cymarron?"

"It would be good to do so. after all, You love the feathers, and he should at least have the right to see his sons. after all according to the raven, they have been presumed dead for a long time. and I'm not about to incur his wrath by forbidding him from seeing them."
A small grin at her chewing on a cinnamon stick.
"But how are you feeling about all this? still pent up and worried...? I know we've had a lot of guests and such."

"Can he even come here? I mean he has a double in this world. Does Simon just get pushed out of the way? That's what we did to ourselves. And speaking of that it makes me wonder what happens if we left the plane, would old us come back?" Ah the bubbling questions of the mind that were a bit rhetorical. She crossed her arms lightly. "Me? I'm fine with guests. Back on the plane we met on you had them, in Neriak too, and here...well it seems no different to me. Our guests have gotten a lot more personal but that's not a bad thing really. Perhaps a little concerned about Zahara but that's my business anyway. I'm just pent up and worried about Swiftfeather really." A little sigh at that, concentrating on her cinnamon for a moment before looking back to Malik. "You know...you're a lot more excited about this than I am and I can't help think that it's wrong that I'm not as enthused as you...even if you do know the trial you face."

"All good questions. best bet is probably to consult the Oracle first on it. after all, she's the expert."
Then a small sigh.
"You worry more and are not as enthused becuase you face a bigger trial than I do. while she is meeting me for the first time, adn I have to endeavor to make sure to make a good impression, it's getting a family back for me. for you, who have avoided her, adn let her think you are dead, you have a lot more to answer for from her than I do."

A raise of an eyebrow at that. "Meilikki? She'll probably get upset with talk of soul switching and the like." Piper shook her head and stared at him a moment...why did he have to be right all the time..."I think she'll be more forgiving of the time I spent away than of the time I've spent with you. I've had the conversation with her in my head a dozen times...what I should apologize for, every anwser to any question I can come up with that she may ask. I shouldn't be worried at all. Even things she could say about you. I can counter that woman on anything she can try to put against us. But here I am, all...not me. I beginning to think it's only because she's my mother and she can make me feel like a little girl who she just caught playing ranger with the boys."

A small chuckle at that.
"That could be it as well. but, since I'm supposed to be relaxing, what woudl you like to do while it's quiet here? or are we going to spend our time here in teh stables talking till we both get to tired?"
A small smile, offering his hand.
"Besides, you need to get soemthing to eat, same as the rest of us. I know you don't eat much, but somethign is better than nothing, and no, your cinnamon sticks don't count."

A look around. Oh yeah they were still in the stables. Funny how the world narrowed sometimes. But with a smile she took his hand, twining thier fingers together and giving him a tug, pulling him from the stables. "I do eat, you just don't see me do it because you're too deep in reverie to notice me getting up. Or are you not and just letting me think you are? And cinnamon always counts." A small chuckle from her. "As far as things I can think to do...well several to annoy your for the fun of it. Here's lets play a game. I lied to you about something in the past week, can you guess what it is?" Piper also liked to mess with his head.

"Broog didn't make you any jewelry."
A small grin. that was the first thing that came to mind. she hadn't lied about anything else, as mostly she'd done what she said, the jewelry thing was the only thing she'd siad she had done but he hadn't seen yet. nto to mention Broog's stare when he told him to finish what he was doing with it. like he had to remember what he was talking about.
"And no it doesn't, it's not a full meal. even for you. and why woudl you wait till I'm in reverie to get something to eat? you gorge yourself or soemthign and don't want me to see?"
Yes he could pick right back at her, and chuckled lightly.

She hit him lightly in the arm. "You're no fun. You're supposed to guess wrong several times and then get flustered. You just know me too well don't you Malik D'vinn?" Hey he guessed right, might as well let him have his victory. Of course that only meant that he had to muse then on what she could possibly have to do with Broog now. But a little shrug from her as they went back inside. "No I don't, and I don't wait on purpose. I just have a funny eating schedule I guess. I've always gotten up in the middle of what's supposed to be night. Well...unless we've worked each other over really well then I stay put. You've never noticed?"

"Not at all. I guess that's the thief in you again. slip in and slip out without being noticed or seen. Now then..that still leaves me to wonder exactly what did Brogg make for you and why. You're father played along with your lie, so it's not somethign for him. Broog hasn't mentioned it to me or shown it off. which mean s it's either something for mom you want to keep underwraps, or for someone else you don't want me to know about."
Never occured to him to be for himself, as he woudl have thought she would have told him she was having broog make him something.
"something for Onyx or Moonstone, perhaps? or the imps? or maybe Raziel?"
And soon enough they were int eh kitchen and dining area, and malik was having things brought to the table. mostly dinner kind of things. meats, steamed vegtables, some fruits, breads and dips, and started getting himself a plate of food.
"Besides, I like to thnk I always work you over extremly well."

"Guess I've still got that thief's touch then. Here I was thinking I was getting rusty. And yes, yes you do. Thus the screaming and the scratching and what not, but why am I stroking your ego again? Oh yes I was trying to make a point." But not in the mood to fuss over it she got herself a plate, getting herself a few things but enough that met his requirments for what a meal would be considered. Setting her cinammon stick on the edge of the plate she smirked at him. "Hm,. that does leave you to wonder, now doesn't it? But no cats, no fairies, no imps, no mother. And of course Kieran played along, I'm daddy's little girl and I know it." A little laugh, taking a moment to eat a strawberry from her plate. "Anymore guesses A'mael?" This had just gotten fairly amusing.
