Welcome to Gaia! ::

*Fire watched as the two went inside. Her mind was racing. Too many things happening in one day. She couldn't believe when Aykon said what he said. Turns out he already had someone lined up. It's no wonder he could play it safe. He knew he could find someone so he was content. In Fire's case, there was no one she had lined up, or anyone even around. She only had Aykon and now that wasn't evenn an option. Fire shook her head and decided since she was alone to jump into the freeezing sea. Cold didn't affect her much (at least in her mind). She took off all her clothes and was left with her undergarments. She ran head on down the sandy beach and jumped into the water. When she hit the water, normally a person would feel like a thousand knives were piercing their skin. In her case, it was a way to cool down. In all reality, the sea was way too cold for her. She only wanted to swim around for a few minutes anyway, it wasn't like she was needed anywhere else.*

~...~

*She smiles to you.*

"No problem Aykon. I'll make sure everyone is settled in to a room if need be and everything is closed for the night. Sleep well, and sweet dreams."

Ksi chuckles again, downing what little is left of his sake.

Yeah, it actually is really important…I was just trying to be humble. It’s a hard job, and I don’t ever want people to think that I let that sort of thing go to my head. Anyway, I’d love to talk about it more sometime, if you’re really interested. I suppose it is getting late though, so we can pick it up another time.

He stands and stretches a bit, and then looks around.

Well, I’m going to head out for the night. I guess I’ll see you guys tomorrow. Sweet dreams everyone.

He smiles at Synge, glances over at Aykon, and then gives everyone in the room a polite bow.

Ja ne.

With a wave, his image flickers rapidly, and then with a gust of wind, he vanishes from the premises.

"Sure Rhodes. I'll be right back with it."


*Nikki smiles to you before you dissapear.*

"Fare thee well, Ksi."


*Nikki returns the wave and then after you have dissapeared out the door, she dissapears into the kitchen. She reappears a short time later and leans against the bar, waiting for the sound of the kettle's whistle.*

"There we go."

*She glances around the room, then turns her gaze back to you.*

"I think everything is all set. There's just a little bit more cleaning to do and then after everyone is gone to their rooms, the lights to turn down and the door to lock. I can handle it, but thanks for offering."

"I've been well, Rhodes. Da finally showed up, he said you talked to him... he called you 'the cute, polite lady.'" *She chuckles.* "How have you been? I havn't really seen you too much lately."

*She pauses for a moment as the kettle whistles.*

"Then again, now that I think about it, this is the longest we've talked. I'll be right back."

*She dissapears through the kitchen door again, and this time returns with a steaming mug which she sets on the counter in front of you.*

*Fire swam around a lilttle while and cooled off. She exited the water and back up to her clothes. She quickly put them on. It felt so warm from the water and she smiled somewhat. She then turned her head towards the tavern.*

~I should head back in, it's probably time to close up the tavern~

*Fire starts to make her way to the tavern. She makes it up to the door and almost touches the knob, but she hesitates. She didn't want to have to endure what was inside. She sighed and then dropped her hand. She looked towards her bag of clothes and desided to change into her night clothes before she headed inside. After she finished changing, she headed into the tavern not hesitating a second time. Inside she saw everyone there. When her eyes set on Rhodes and Aykon, she looked away and headed to the furthest couch away from them and sat down*

*Finishes off the tea and sets her mug aside.*

"People get busy I suppose, but as long as you are feeling better now then that is good."

*Fiddles with the mug, not sure what else to say*
