Welcome to Gaia! ::

Eziya had tugged Serr along to the neighboring village to gain supplies. It had been a relatively easy trip, with the kids being left in the care of Xariy for a sort of sleepover with the others. Everything was going smooth until the sudden storm had arrived. The downpour made the roads too difficult to get a cart over, each attempt made causing more damage than it was worth. Eziya had watched the struggles and decided against fighting it. It wasn't often the two of them got to have alone time anymore after all, even if they were stuck in the little inn with a couple others.

"No point in trying to get back. We should just stay and wait it out," Eziya commented, rubbing at her arms as the chill of the rain blew onto her from under the small inn awning.

Eziya smiled at Serr's hesitance, resting a gentle hand against his arm in an attempt to reassure him. She knew how much he disliked large groups, but she hoped that at least he might find something in common with the ones they would deal with while weathering the storm. Eziya led the two of them inside, sticking to the front so she could do more of the speaking for them. Realizing the two of them were probably a little wet from the rain Eziya paused and pulled out a small cloth, doing a little bit of damage control as she swiped the cloth over Serr and her both.

"Better," she chuckled, moving more into the room. "Is there any availability here?" Eziya asked the oban woman at the desk, the woman lifting her head to look them over.

"Yeah, hun. Plenty enough. Though there's a troupe staying here just as warning. Hope you don't mind the noise."

Eziya turned to Serr then, worried he'd rather fare the rain.

After settling the matter of lodging with Serr's money pouch, Eziya pulled him along to go inspect the troupe that the innkeep had told them about. Despite the weather everyone was pretty upbeat and raucous music filled the area around the stage. There was a moment where she considered approaching the group to get a closer look, but ultimately thought better of it as she guided the two of them to a table in the back.

"This is a little fun, isn't it? It's been a while since we've gotten to be off on our own." Not that she minded being with the kids, but every now and then she enjoyed wandering with Serr like they had in their younger years.

"But how are you feeling? The rain didn't make you too cold did it?"

Eziya sat up straighter as she listened to Serr speak, always happy when her dear husband offered up ideas for their outings. The blanket idea was a nice suggestion, and easy enough to hunt down. Eziya stood from her spot next to Serr, placing a kiss atop his head before wandering over near the fireplace where a large stack if blankets rested. She rustled through the bunch careful not to send the whole basket toppling over until she found one big enough to cover the two of them. She thought to return with blanket immediately in hand, but instead turned to let it rest near the fire close enough to warm but not enough to set it ablaze before bringing it back over to the table.

"Hopefully this will be cozy enough for you," Eziya smiled, wrapping the warmed blanket around the two of them and snuggling close. "Maybe the troupe will play some music or something. If not that's also fine. I'm just happy being warm and comfortable with you."
