Alex smiled at Aiden, "Thank you. See, I'm not that annoying! She laughed and poked Oliver. Hey! Yes you are! Oliver poked Alex back and they had a poking competition for a few moments and Oliver won. He turned back to Aiden "Ai, Dragons are pretty cool creatures. I wouldn't want one for a pet though. I'm fine with my owl." Alex laughed. "Cloey is the most annoying bird." She rolled her eyes and Oliver scoffed, turing back to Aiden.

He continued to watch the two poke back and forth, another laugh bubbling out of him. "Owls aren't that annoying, are they? I've got one myself but she's sweet-tempered. Cat didn't want an owl...just a dragon." He shook his head but smiled all the same. "I'm hoping she'll grow out of it soon. Though...I've heard from my new keeper, that an elf is supposed to be coming our way at some point...and that she's got a dragon with her. A small dragon but a dragon none-the-less."

Oliver's eyes grew wide. "Are you fecking serious? Even a small dragon... I hope it's tame. My owl isn't annoying. She's just trying to annoy me. Cloey actually loves Alex. They've bonded so that Alex tells her to go peck me sometimes" He pulled a face at the thought and shrugged.
Alex made a half laugh and raised an eyebrow. "whoa. A dragon. Never seen one of those before.. Oliver watch your language!" Then she poked Oliver and moved down the bar towards Aiden so he couldn't poke her back.

"Mrs. T told me that the dragon was a pseudodragon, the elf's famliair, so yeah, it's tame. Just don't tell Cat that I know. She's flip out and would probably try to take the poor thing away whenever the elf arrives." He took another gulp of his butterbeer then stretched where he sat. "Speaking of Cat, I wonder if she's still away at the library?" He was more-or-less just asking himself but he had a habbit of saying and asking things outloud.

Oliver and Alex relaxed. "Jesus you had me worried there.." "Well atleast it's tame..." Alex scooted back over to Oliver, sencing he wasn't going to poke her more, and rested her head on his shoulder. "I'm tired..." She her eyes closed and her breathing slowed. "I guess I'll have to carry her home." He laughed softly at this and brushed her hair out of her eyes.

"Yeah...she looked tired before we came here. Maybe it's best you get her home. I should probably go find Cat." He finished off his drink then stood and stretched. "Maybe we can hong out again sometime and I can introduce you to Cat."

He laughed and picked Alex up, her head resting against his chest and he kissed her head. "Yeah, Definatley, she sounds interesting. It was nice to meet you Aiden, I'll see you around" He waved and walked out the door

Quinn walked into the Fallen Star, a crumpled up letter squeezed tightly in his hand. He sat down on one of the stools at the bar, and started smoothing the letter out. He'd read it over, and over, and over, but every time he wished he hadn't. He rubbed at his wet cheek, sniffed, then looked around for a bartender.

Harbird strode into the fallen star, ignoring the fact that he was ditching his job. He stopped to hold the door open for his new acquaintance, tempest, then went to the bar to procure drinks for them.

Tempest walked into the Fallen Star after Harbird and took a short glance around. Soft music was already playing since it was during the un-busy part of the day. She smiled lightly then went to find a plush couch to sit on.

Ordering an innocuous cream soda for each of them, harbird accidently knocked into the crying Quinn. "Sorry, didn't see you there. You okay, kid?"

Quinn grabbed the bar for support, then blinked at Harbird, rushing to try and wipe his tears from his eyes and cheeks. "No." he mumbled with a sniff. He turned to look toward the door, but noticed Tempest sitting on a couch. He quickly turned back to the letter sitting on the bar in front of him, and was just silent.

"You really don't look so good, kid. Sitting alone at a bar Isn't any knid of a way to deal with your woes. I gotta bring these drinks back to a lady, But i think you rally need to find someone to talk to." He patted quinn a little awkwardly on the back, then went to join tempest on the couch. "Well, Milady, will cream soda do as a refreshment for you?"

Tempest watched Harbird talk to someone who had been sitting at the counter, her eyes widdening when she realized who it was. He didn't appear to be in that good of shape...which made her wonder what had happened to him after he was kicked out. The sound of Harbird's voice snapped her back to reality. "Hm? Oh, yes, cream soda is fine. Thank you." She took the glass and sipped at the amber liquid inside, smiling in delight at the smoothness and flavor.

Quinn watched Harbird walk to Tempest, then looked down at his hands. They were dirty and beat-up. He made a face. After ordering a drink that looked like it must have been alcoholic, he went back to reading the letter, taking small sips. That guy didn't know why he was so miserable.....talking to someone would make him feel no better.
