He looked up to the ceiling as he listened to her, mulling it over in his head. She was adamant about this nickname thing and this was by far the best one that she had come up with out of all her little picking over the day. Not only that but it did actually fit, it wasn't just some word thrown out there and attached oddly to his person. No, he rather liked it. A little nod to her and somewhat of a lopsided grin, reaching a hand over her shoulder to pull a few loose strands of bone white hair from her face and tuck it behind her ear. "Raven it is then, Sweetheart." Yeah, he could deal with that if she felt the need to nickname him.

"Oh good," she chuckled then imparted her little secret. "Because if you didn't like Raven and you hated Sugar I was going to call you Blackberry and be done with it whether you liked it or not." Her words were soft as she felt herself drifting off and a moment later she was gone, off into reverie helped there by her hectic day, his gentleness and her own mind at ease. Ah yes, very nice indeed.

One head bit down on the blade, holding it in place. The other snatched the pillowcase of stolen goods, the third barked. "I am not a fido! You thief! I will chew off your hands!"
Roarke laughed. "That she might, that she might." He patted the vah's back as he ate the cookie. The pats also restored some of his blood, just enough to make sure he wouldn't die, and to give him some coherincy back. "Why don't I help you down to her then?"

"That would be..very good."
And a slightly less groggy Onyx gave a grin, and started attempting to stumble toward the doorway.
"Over my dead body! I got those fair and square, let go!"
tugging on his sword and his bag of goodies, and slapping the heads with his tail as hard as he coudl and still be fast enough to not get it bitten off.
Malik and Piper spent a great deal of time outdoors, talking, watching Malikhai, and taking a swim as well. after finishing all the food, and taking Piper back inside with thier son, and a slight chuckle over Zahara moving out already.
"Why don't they just admit it already. they want to be a couple."
then a look around for Arthur real fast. He owed him a thrashing.

Roarke took his arm and helped him down to the lower levels. Don't ask how he knew Aella was down there. He knew, that's all that mattered.
"It looks like she's in the pup's rooms, there to the north side of the arena."
"Mistress paid for the items fair and square! They are not yours!" He growled. "If you wish your body dead then so be it!" One head snapped back, tearing the pillowcase out of the rodent's hand and throwing it back across the room. The other went for his throat.

a squeel sound as the bag went flying, and so did mandos, jumping over the dog, landing hard on his tail and bolting for it, hell with the rapier, he coudl steal another one if he lived through this. swiping up the bag and out the door, running as fast and still as quiet and sneaky as a rat could.
"Oh PARTNER! where ARE you!?"
Onyx started humming 'how much is that doggy in the window' though he kept in time with Roarke's steps, having that dreamy look people get when they are about to meet a crush or someone they are dating who they haven't seen in awhile.

Kuro spoke up. "Roarke has always been rather reserved with his magic. soemtime ago he actually.. smelled different for a time. I think he had majic, lost it, then foudn it again. I wonder if that maybe has something to do with not wnatign to use it against us."

Deidrich tore after the rat, crashing into things in the hallway.
Din bent down and picked Mandos up by the scruff. "Meilikki! Look, it's Sir Mandos. He's the one I'm with. I remeber now."
Meilikki took the pillowcase out of the rat-creatures hands. "Stealing my hard earned nice-as-pricesless-as-it-looks items, are we?"
Roarke blinked, maybe he should have given the kid more blood. "Steady now, it won't look good to your girl if your acting drunk." He steared towards the entertainment room, where Aella was chatting with the pups.
Aella just shrugged. "I don't relaly know Roarke that well, but I lost my powers too. I don't really know what they can do, now that I have them back. Maybe he doesn't want anything unexpected to happen."

Jude's ears perked. "Your magic has changed then?" all the pups where interested and had their ears turned twards Aella.
Zell's ear swiveled to the door, then his head followd suit. "Well why don't we ask him? he's on his way...with soemone else... I don't recoginize the footsteps though."

"Um...I'm just...uh...liberating them from your three headed canine?"
Okay give her the big doe eyes and the pathetic look. and get out of here with your skin intact.
"I am nto drrrunk."
Shaking his head lightly.
"Just a little..dehydrated and lightheaded."
Flexing his wings out a bit.
"I was drunk yesterday."

"You're telling me that my faithful canine, who has no apposible thumsb, magnaged to get all of my fine things into a pillowcase?" She lifted an eyebrow.
Aella rolled onto one side and looked at Onyx and Roarke as they came in. She had a puzzled look on her face, because she didn't really know what to think of Onyx right now.
"Right right, drunk yesterday. Well laddie, there she is. I hope you don't mind an audience."

"he knocked it off with his tial and heads and used his nose?"
Don't feed me to the dog. don't feed me to the dog...
Onyx just kinda, plopped himself down by Aella, though managed to do it with feline grace into a crosslegged sitting position. thank god for feline genetics.
"Well..Whirlwind..Aella...I was a bit worried since you've been kinda avoiding me lately...so I thought I'd make you something nice. I think you're still upset with me or mad at me...so I brought presents for a peace offering.."
Yeah, not really good with words with an audience, are we. so he held them out, ruby earrings, necklaces of a few styles, rings, braclets, studded hairpins and a scrunchie
"I didn't know how to make or get flowers."
Okay, go on.
"and I thought, maybe...if you weren't too busy or if you wanted, you and me might go do something fun sometime..like see a play or go to a pub?"

At once all of the pups looked to roarke, each brought his or her index and middle finger to their heart and tapped it twice, after which they brushed a finger across their nose. It was their salute to him.
Zachadia got to his feet. "roarke do you have a moment?"
Zell was curently sniffing Onyx suspicously. "You know what HE smells like?" he asked no one in general.

Roarke saluted in the same manner. "No Zell, what's he smell like?"
He rubbed the top of Zachadia's head. "Course I do, what's on your mind?"
Aella was shocked with the amount of presents she was given. Honsetly, how much jewlery could she wear? She didn't even think she could fit into all of this. "Um...thanks Onyx. They are really pretty." She never had a piece of jewlery before. And yeah, they were pretty nice looking.
"I'm not mad anymore, Onyx. I've just been busy. You know, not being bored and stuff."
Err...was she being asked out on a date? Okay, calm donw, don't get nervous..."I've never done either of those things before."

Zell wrinkled his nose. "Booze, he smells like booze. Thats nasty. nasty Nasty Nasty." he said as he shook his head.
Zachadia rolled his eyes and wagge dhis tail at the same time. "We're curious about... well about your magic. And why you thought never to train us against it."
