He got the desired reaction that statement had provoked and her fists clenched, eyes narrowed dangerously and glittering with a hint of that cruelty so well known in Drow, and she looked for a moment like she might actually hit him. Then she shook her head and laughed. "Very nicely done Sevilin. You just know the exact buttons to push to rile me up, don't you? And I'm sure in your mind you've told yourself that if you upset me enough, I'll leave you alone and won't say anything more on the subject. You're wrong. I'm not going anywhere, I live here, I play here, this is my domain." And she leaned back against the wall, crossing her arms in that protectively careless stance, waiting to see what he would do. One of them needed to leave before things went from bad to worse..maybe she should just make an exit. "But for now I will leave you in peace, a temporary relief really. See you at dinner..." and she pushed off the wall and plopped a quick kiss on his cheek just to throw him even more off. He'd done it to her after all and turnabout was fair play. Heading off to do whatever she was going to, to keep herself busy. But the moment she was out of his sight she leaned against the wall, took a deep breath and lightly traced her lips, a slight smirk visible on her face.

"Because it makes me feel better to know that you are completely healthy even in your eating habits to my standard and that you'll be used to that kind of portion before your pregnant, which means you won't have to break to many faces and hands when you do get pregnant and ask for bigger food portions. no slaves staring at you like you lost your mind."
A chuckle and a kiss to the top of her head.
"And dinner should be starting soon."
Go ahead and bite him. the slaves only smirked at the little ferret, thier eyes intentionally moving to the lumbering mass coming up behind him, that picked up the shainmail and bracer and the ferret with it and moved it to the proper place as per seating arrangement.

Oh the satisfaction of indeed knowing what buttons to push to get her worked up in that angry way where she wanted nothing to do with him. Her weaknesses were many and he was learning every one of them, knew most of them now. A book, that's what she was. He smirked. "Not your domain, Malik's domain...he merely lets you live and play here under his good graces only for the sway of his surface trash."
Crossing his own arms again and shifting his weight to one leg. Though a sneer as she kissed his cheek in what could almost be seen as affectionate manner. "All too soon I'm sure..." Watching her walk away...before high pitched shrieking got his attention.
Oh no you didn't! He was making quite the fuss, that ferret's ability to shreik at a high pitched tone being used to it's fullest as he was being moved, scratching and biting and showing his disapproval to the utmost of his abilities to. Nym was not a happy ferret at all. Though the moment all was set down to where Malik had ordained that Sevilin was gonna sit...he quieted most nicely, convinced that he was triumphant. Then a chitter as he was picked up by the scruff of his neck and his red eyes met another pair.
"Such a fuss, really." Though checking him over of course.
Chitter.
"Oh I get that look all the time." A little chuckle from her and somewhat of that surrendering sigh she usually gave him in acknowledgment that she would be compliant...at least somewhat. "I fail to see your logic, seeing as I'll have more of an appetite then." A pat at his shoulder, "But we're not even close to that yet now are we, as unfortunate as that my be, my body is just being difficult." She shook her head lightly before bracing her hands on his chest and pushing away some. "Shall we fetch the parents then?"

"Yes indeed, go fetch the parents. and you know...there are ways to help your body get with the program."
A slight chuckle at that, and a caress up her arms with his hands, sitting up.
"But only if you want it. I'll leave that decision up to you."
And then getting himself up in his finer clothing, though nothing overly fancy, malvolence strapped to hsi side just in case, and a lingering kiss for her before he started to make his way down to dinner.
"Lowd rat."
That was all teh Breaker said, as it didn't feel the biting and scratching and the like, before looking at Sevilin.
"Yous sits der, da master say. he hab seeting orangement."
Before it lumbered off to due it's other duties.

Zahara pushed herself off the wall and started ambling once again. She needed to find something to keep her occupied until dinner though what that was going to be she had not a clue. Her mind roved back and forth between all the things that Sevilin had said and done in the last few days and she became more and more perplexed. He was nice to her, then he teased her. Why? Had Malik pushed him to do something again? She'd dearly love to beat that blue elf for the long list of personal crimes against her. RAtional thought surfaced for a moment and she slipped into her room to change. After all, family dinner meant formality. So to her closet, rooting through her clothes until she found it. She hadn't worn it in the longest time because there had been no need to. Pulling the dress out of her closet, she held it up and studied it for a moment then decided what the hell. Why shouldnt' she? It didn't take her long to strip and bathe, pulling the long dress on over her head and smoothing it down. Made from spun silk, it was the exact lavender shade of her eyes. Two diamond cutouts were visible, one just above her breasts and the other over her stomach, allowing the small hoop she wore in her navel to remain free from constriction. Slipping silk slippers on her feet, she reached for her trademark long gloves and pulled them on then easily brushed her damp hair, clipping her ornate clip with an amethyst design to hold the snowy strands back off her ebony skin. And she was ready, now it was decision time. Should she go down there or wait until she was called? She opted to go down since at the very least she could get points for not having to be summoned. Willingness had to count for something right? Sadly she found out that she wasn't the only one with that sort of thinking though Sevilin was there. Leaning in the doorway she shook her head, "Assigned seats?"

"Yes I know there are. We've talked about this...I just have to you know, check with Zahara or what not because I frankly don't want to be poisoned or something like that." Of course watching him as he got himself dressed more approptiately and then looking down at her own clothes...hm...should she change? Eh she figured she should. Thus walking over to her closet and pulling it opne...and staring at the door a moment before closing it and then opening it. Hm...it wasn't moving as smooth. Before moving into her closet and changing her clothes, throwing on something a little nicer and what not. Of course taking a moment to make sure he little pet project was hidden in the back before she made her way out and down to her parents room, knocking on the door. "Parents, I do belive that it's time for dinner."
Sevilin set Nym on his forearm, petting at the agitated creature before looking to the breaker at his words. And only raised an eyebrow, what he had to be placed in a certain seat like a child now? Figured Malik would be like that, not that it surprised him at all. "Very well..." No point in arguing really, so why do it.
Though he held in an exasperated sigh as he turned his head to the sound of Zahara's voice. Though a look at her got another raised eyebrow. She cleaned up pretty well now didn't she? Indeed she did. But he only wiped his expression off his face, not intending to give her the joy of his irritation as he sat down in his chair. "Apparently so, isn't that wonderful. Malik is obvioulsy taking precautions."

Malik came down as quiet as can be, right up behind Zahara.
"You'll like it much better I think. Your seat is right next to sevilin. and across from Fianna. I think you'll enjoy the evening more that way. Oh, and you and I are due a short conversation I'm sure you'll find interesting. and it doesn't involve injury to your person this time."
Before moving past her to his customary seat at the head of the table, and waiting paitently for Fianna, Kieran and Piper to arive for dinner while the table was still being set with foods from Andal as via thier gateway and more common underdark varieties. and since Piper hadn't dug into the cake yet, that was put out as well.

"Changed your clothes for dinner did you? My,my I believe there was a time that I couldn't get you to do that when I wanted you to. Seems he is quite good for you indeed." A chuckle and a hug for her daughter, doing the motherly thing of pushing Piper's hair out of her eyes and tucking it behind her ears. Mothers.
"What can I say...Malik is fancy. Not quite royal fancy, but nobility fancy. I have to make a compromise somewhere...besides, I can't very well let him how me up now can I?"
A look down at himself and over at Fianna as they followed after Piper. They were rather dressed down, travel clothes with a hint of elegance and what not. "Hey we're not fancy...I think we're rather level with everyone else."
"But you can be fancier, and I know you are, and you wear your circlets all the time." A laugh at them both as Fianna and Kieran had more or less angled thier eyes up to try and look at mentioned pieces of elven attire. "You two..." Coming into the room. "Last to arrive but the most awaited."

Malik gave a slight grin.
"As always. I do hope you won't mind some seating arangements in light of present company. Trying to keep the peace as best as possible."
Motioning to the seats.
"Kieran will be closer to me, Fianna at his side, and of course, Piper at the end of the table. I've been doign my best to get Andalian food for your enjoyment. as well as the normal Drow enjoyments. I'm sure Kieran will be thrilled."

"Oh but you do like to get in good with me." Kieran gave a chuckle, rolling his shoudler some to alleviate some stiffness in his still slung arm. Though Fianna had done a right good job...after all, what was better against the methods of a rune mage than another rune mage. But a gentleman as ever, Fianna was taken to her seat and let to sit down before he himself did.
Fianna chuckled lightly as well. "Well I do say Malik, a little forward thinking in this situation isn't too bad." Taking her seat she let her gaze go to Sevilin and her expression turning serious. For a moment she regarded her peer in rune magery before looking back over to Malik with a smile, more or less ignoring Sevilin for the time being. "Kieran is indeed right, you're just oh so accomodating aren't you? Silly elf."
Piper was a little tense. After all, opposing focres of all manners. Oh please elvish Gods let the night go well. With a slow breath taken in she took her seat."Oh I'm sure we can all be civil, we are all adults after all." Yeah that would suffice to settle her anxiety for the moment.

Elvish hearing doesn't really allow for sneaking up on so Zahara barely blinked when Malik slipped up behind her. The elf thought he was inconspicuous but really now, if you knew what to listen for, no one was quiet. Biting back an acidic reply was hard but she said, "Whatever you say D'Vinn," and headed around the table to the seat next to Sevilin, refusing to look at him in the process. Scooting it over a little bit so they weren't quite so close, she settled herself in and smiled over at Piper's parents. "Kieran, Fianna, wonderful to see you again. I hope the Underdark is agreeing with you..." She knew and liked Kieran very well, Fianna, Zahara didn't like or dislike, there was really nothing there as she hadn't gotten to know the woman very well last time. Since it was a family dinner, it would be in poor taste to bring up the fight between Sevilin and Kieran but her pointed gaze at his arm and raised eyebrow inquired how he was really doing.

Sevilin shifted uncomfortable...he was uncomfortable with a lot right now. His earlier confrontation with Zahara, him and Silvercrest against each other to begin with and Kieran's injury proof of that. Piper was another general dislike and if he ever got his chance to get away with hurting her she would. Malik just because they were at odd ends...and of course Fianna...who probably matched him in thier field of expertese. Rune mages together...indeed a tense thing.
Fianna and Kieran exchanged a look when Zahara gave them a look as well as comment. Kieran had smiled and gave a nod to her silently asked question, while Fianna gave a smile and a nod to Zahara. "Better than last time, hopefully anyway. Won't know until a day or two, yes?"

Malik was just enjoying himself at Sevilin's expense. which gave hint in a small grin.
"Yes indeed. we have much to discuss in the next few days I think, if your good humor with the underfoot lasts. And since there's no need to stand on accord of anything, please enjoy yourself to the food."
Though a look to Zahara too.
"Interesting situations move around here well enough...Kieran should probably get another journal."

Zahara nodded, "A few days indeed. Just have to wait and see." Malik got a slanted gaze, "I'm sure if Kieran feels the need, he will." Her tone was neutral, it wouldn't do any good to piss him off since he obviously wanted to meet with her after all of this. Joy was not the emotion she was currently experiencing. She tapped her foot lightly beneath the table and waited for Malik to start the proceedings. After all, he was the Lord of the house and had taken the place of honor at the head of the table. She watched him start the formal proceedings and set things in motion so that the dinner could begin. Her plate was liberally filled, not that she was going to eat a whole lot but enough to pick at really. Her napkin found it's way to her lap and she picked up her fork to begin pushing the food around her plate.

Sevilin refused to say anything to anyone...venom was brewing on his tongue anyway. So any words that came out would be laced with the stuff...not a one of them would be good at all. So then he merely took to normal dinner motions, filling his plate...though not as full as usual, and then took to eating. Yeah this is how he would handle this, he'd just not engage in conversation and content himself with eating, and keep his eyes on that spot on the far wall...of course his attention would idly turn to Nym as he was stealing little pieces off his plate.
Fianna cocked an eyebrow at Malik. "Really now, has that much gone on indeed?" Surprised? Well yes considering thatAndal was two days ahead in time which meant that less time had passed here and it seemed many things went on during that time.
Kieran only chuckled. "Shh, not allowed to say the 'J word' right now. After all, I'm proficently ambidexterous with weapons, not so much with writing. I'd like to read what I've written when I get back home, obviously." Indeed, he was less than able to write legibly and that wasn't fun for him at all. Nope.
Piper shook her head lightly, of course surveying those around the table. Sevilin seemed interested in only his food, mom and dad were easily getting theres and falling into normal comfortable habits and what not, well at least they were fine. Zahara seemed uninterested in her food really, and Malik...well was being Malik. Well...that was good as could be as expected. To her own food then.
