She was about to move on to thanking them for the gift but Gwendolyn jumped in at this point. She had been getting impatient with her silly sister and her annoying shyness. Just say it like you mean it. This is wasting time.
"Oh thank you! I'll say it for her since that's probably what she wants to say right now. She's so embarrassed and shy!" Gwendolyn said. "But rather than standing out here, wouldn't the both of you like to be sitting? I'm sure the dorms are a good place or perhaps a lounge where people can relax?" Gwen was trying to be polite here, but she also wanted to find a lounge and some decent people to chat with. Wandering aimlessly just did not suit Gwen's style.

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied -------------------------------------------------------
Storm dropped his duffel on the sidewalk and stretched his arms upwards. He had just gotten off the ship an hour ago and he was still stiff. He missed this school and its interesting people the whole time he was away. The captain gave him a bit more leave and he was going to take every second of it!
He looked around and yawned. His gypsy friends had kept him up for almost a week before letting him leave again. They always had the weirdest of parties and rituals to make him feel more human. he let his arms fall as he remembered all the people he wanted to get hugs from.
------------------------------------------------------- If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died

Sethrian.Terkynna  "Is there a place we can sit and chat for a while?" Marla asked, looking up at Sethrian. "I would love to get to know Renivere a little. And I would like a place she can sit and open her gift." She prodded Sethrian gently. "I have one for you too, Sethrian." Seth frowned slightly, looking at Renivere's sister briefly. "As the dorms are not co-ed, I believe the best place would be the student lounge. There is seating and also there are refreshments there. If that is alright with everyone? Renivere?" She still looked thoroughly embarrassed by the compliments. It was cute, but sort of sad to see that she was so unused to them. Though, with her sister, he could see why. The other girl wasn't being mean exactly, but something about her demeanor was a little off. She was polite and yet...he couldn't put his finger on what it was but he didn't like the way she treated Renivere. It was as if there was a slight edge of impatience in her words and actions. It annoyed him. "Let's go then," Simeon said. "Perhaps the two of you can give the three of us a mini tour along the way."

Eoin.Valmera The goblin remains and the princess will die,
the right road to Faerie, is the blink of an eye...
Eoin somehow ended up outside. He wasn't sure that's where the lizard woman had taken Nimarien though. He didn't see any sign of them anywhere so simply ran around flailing and crying out for her. "Nimarien! Nimarien!? Father is coming, Nimarien! Just hang on!"
As he ran, he spotted a young blonde male standing nearby, yawning. Oh! He recognized him. He was a friend of Angela--sort of. They knew each other. Eoin remembered from his early spying on her in the school. Without a second thought, he ran to Storm and grabbed his shoulders, shaking him slightly. "You! Have you seen a giant lizard run by carrying my beautiful daughter!? Have you!?"
It didn't occur to him that Storm didn't know who he was. Or who his daughter was. Obviously he should know! Eoin and Angela looked just alike! Except she was a girl. And short. Eh...
Whatever!Where charming old stories, in blood are expressed,

Where ever the wind blows, you will find me... -------------------------------------------------------
storm was about to grab his bag and head inside the school to meet up with a few friends along the way when an odd man ran up to him. frantically began shaking him, or at least thats what storm felt like. still trying to find his land feet he was jello in the mans grasp. If you can imagine a sock puppet with googly eyes being shaken by a three year old, that is what storm felt like.
then his brain grasped ahold of the two main words in the sentence, "beautiful daughter".
"wait, what!? A beautiful daughter has been kidnapped!!!?" he gasped out, grabbing a hold of the man's shoulders as well. thats when he noticed how familiar the man looked. he narrowed his eyes at the man. "tell me more good sir!"

Eoin.Valmera The goblin remains and the princess will die,

"YES!" Eoin said. He paused for a moment, relieved the young man seemed as concerned as he did. "I like you," he stated, nodding firmly. "You're a good lad. Now then. You know my daughter, Nimarien, yes?" Ah wait. She didn't use that name here. She used that silly little think Helene had given her. What was it again? Angle? An...gelina? Angela! Right. That one. "Angela! You're her friend aren't you?"
"She was abducted by a vicious creature! A terrible monster--lizard. Thing!" Eoin flailed slightly. "She is probably somewhere alone, and frightened. And crying for her beloved father to save her!" Well, that didn't really sound much like Nimarien, but whatever. Close enough!
Eoin wrapped an arm around Storm's shoulders, pulling the boy to him so he could whisper conspiratorially. "I don't know this school well, but you do. Will you help me look for her? I believe I may have gotten lost..."Where charming old stories, in blood are expressed,

attempting to put two and two together he looked the man over once and nodded at him. He seemed odd. odder than most he had come in contact with but most importantly completely like angela in every way possible, if not alittle more eccentric. He chuckled and flashed his charming smile. Angela's father was here looking for her because some lizard thing stole her? that was odd even for angela... then perhaps the lizard thing was a student at the school? hm... storm only knew a few of the students but he couldnt help but participate in find a damsel in distress.
"sir, we will find your lovely daughter, and rescue her from the evil clutches of doom!" he wasnt sure if angela would approve of him playing along with her father in such a manner but he couldnt help it! he loved this sort of play and honestlly it made a long life interesting.
he scooped up his bag and looked around. "where was the last place to see her? did the lizard thing mention anything..we will look for every clue!"

Eoin.Valmera The goblin remains and the princess will die,
the right road to Faerie, is the blink of an eye..."The lizard said nothing," Eoin said. "But I do believe they're still inside somewhere. I clearly took a wrong turn." He huffed an annoyed sigh, crossing his arms. "With my power limited here, I'm afraid I can't simply locate her the way I normally would. Quite annoying, I though I suppose I see the point after that odd little gathering in the hall."
"The last place I saw her, in fact, was in the main hall when that horrible man was attempting to propose to her. Though that caveman impression of his can hardly be called a proposal. He had just finally put her down after carrying her like a sack of rice for a bit. And then the lizard showed up and ran off down the hallway with her."
"I would be disturbed but I know enough about this school to know this is perfectly normal..." Having calmed down a little, Eoin started back toward the entrance, giving Storm a sidelong look. "You've just returned after a short hiatus of sorts?"Where charming old stories, in blood are expressed,

Storm patted the man on the back in comfort. "its alright, i got pretty lost when i first arrived at this school! and yes, i was sailing the ocean. visiting a few of my gypsy friends along the way. they always do enjoy it when i stop by. all the same, perhaps we should go talk to that man who was proposing?"
He looked back at the guy with a sideways smile. the last time he was here angela and abel were making lovey dovey faces at each other. perhaps that was him? he didnt know any "lizards" going to this school but things could have changed in the few months he had been away.
"Come on my good man, i will lead you back to the hallway." and with that he shoves his bag on his back and shuffles up the steps, waiting for angela's father to fallow.
"oh, and my name is Strorm... Anthony Storm Dayton jr."

"Oh silly me! I didn't know. Thanks for informing me then!" Gwendolyn said.
Ack! Gwendolyn was getting impatient! Renivere had to get over her embarrassment, but really, this kind of thing just doesn't happen so how was she supposed to deal with it! She'll ask Gwendolyn later how she deals with compliments, especially compliment overloads. Renivere gave a shy nod. "Th-the student lounge is of good sitting down together talking." Nooooo! She wasn't even thinking properly! She wans't making any sense. She was jumbling words together!
Okay. Renivere, calm down. Breathing, breathing. Good. And Sethrian is here too! Everything will be just... just fine.
"A tour sounds like a good idea. Make sure to show me the important places so I don't look silly getting lost." Gwendolyn said playfully, but there was some truth behind her words. She gave her sister a seemingly friendly push to get her walking so they can at least leave the stupid spot. Renivere staggered forward a bit, her arm reaching for Sethrian to keep her balance since he was the one she trusted more than her sister. "Oh no! I forgot to be gentle. Sorry Renivere!"
Patience? A virtue? In what world? If there was a beast chasing after you, patience would not be a virtue. Renivere pursed her lips but decided not to comment. Keep the atmosphere light and fluffy! That's the goal. "Oh Gwendolyn! You're somewhat of clumsiness." Renivere remarked, just as playfully as Gwendolyn. But there was some truth behind her words.
She turned to Simeon and Marla and smiled at them. "Yes. A tour on the way to the lounge would be helpful." Renivere looked to Sethrian. "Sethrian. Shall we lead the way?"

Eoin.Valmera The goblin remains and the princess will die,
the right road to Faerie, is the blink of an eye..."Eoin Valmera," Eoin replied. "And I've no intention of talking to the cretin who proposed. Because I've no intention of supporting his decision to marry my daughter and given her protests, I highly imagine she has no intention to marry that molester either!" He flailed slightly, remembering how Abel had manhandled Angela, completely disrespecting her personal space and her wishes. Really! If that was how Abel intended to win her over, he had a long way to go. Eoin frowned as he followed Storm back into the school. "If you were a lizard and had just kidnapped a princess--where would you go?"

Sethrian.Terkynna Sethrian reached for Renivere quickly, helping her steady herself after that shove from her sister. Sethrian took a moment to place himself between the two of them, leveling a slightly cold look at Gwendolyn because he did not believe for an instant that was not intentional. "Do not 'forget to be gentle' again. Even if she's your sister, I will not forgive anyone who hurts her. Accident or not." Marla and Simeon shared a look. Though there did seem to be...some tension between the girls, it would be a shame if Sethrian's, well, lack of most social graces, ruined his relationship with Renivere. So! Subject change! Marla quickly linked her arm through Renivere's and started toward the school. "Sethrian tells me you enjoy cooking and gardening! Those are also two of my favorite things. I would love to know more about you, Renivere. Sethrian always says such wonderful things and it's so wonderful to see him happy again," she chattered to the girl as the went along. Simeon casually put his hand on the back of Sethrian's neck and steered him toward the school, laughing loudly. "Ahaha. Sethrian. You are a typical man in love." He cuffed him lightly on the back of the head as he smiled at Gwendolyn. "Please forgive my mannerless grandson. Renivere is his first love, you see. He's naturally very protective of her. Young love is sweet, yes?"

Urk. Over protective much. Don't worry, mood killer. Gwen didn't care if she was never forgiven. She just wanted to move from the spot. It was already annoying that she was getting crap from Renivere. Gwen can show her how clumsy she can be and that may cause broken bones--but no. Smile, smile. She won't lose. Fluffy atmosphere right? She can do this. Smile brightly at this grouch face! "It was the slip of the mind! Don't worry, it won't happen again!" Gwen said with a wave of the hand as they finally started to move to the school. "There was no offense to forgive, Simeon. I understand love. It's blind, isn't it?" First love? Wow, these two were perfect for each other. Or were they? Teenage boys always keeps secrets from their grandparents. Gwen will look into this.
Renivere felt slightly selfish, but she was inwardly cheering Sethrian for giving her sister a good scolding. But she had to remind herself that Gwen was actually better than most of her family. Because she came and everyone else didn't. It may be a hate-hate situation, but family was family and Renivere wanted to be able to speak fondly of her family.
So she took kindly to this subject change! And she felt pleased that Sethrian was happy. She was happier! She was sure of it! "Yes! Cooking and gardening were joys and blessings of my life--second to Sethrian now." And then her face almost exploded from heat for blurting that out. "B-but I also have a liking for frogs--" What was she saying!? These things grossed people out! Something else! Quickly! "I am thinking of perhaps helping with the school garden now that winter has passed. There is not many to take care of them. Sethrian offered to help as well and the school shall bloom with beauty!"

Saeslin.Cathain The priests and the friars
They approach me in dread
For I love you still
My wife, and you're dead...
Saeslin led the others back to the school, keeping an eye out for anyone that sounded like Ivan's son. He wondered, really, if it was the man's real son because there didn't seem to be much of a resemblance based on the description. He also felt a little awkward that Ivan had given him the cloak, but felt it would be rude to turn the offer down. So, while flushing red from embarrassment at the gesture, he settled the cloak on his shoulders as they walked.
When they reached the school gates he paused. "Is there any particular place we could help you look for your son?" he asked. "Or a particular place to which I could escort either of you?"
It would likely get awkward if they wished to visit different places, but Saeslin couldn't just abandon either of them. Colleen still looked to be upset, and needed to be escorted wherever it was she was going. And he couldn't simply leave a guest at the gate with no directions or anything. Especially when he was looking for his family member. That just wouldnt' do at all.I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm...
