Mara and Circe are having a bit of a heated talk, when Mara suddenly, excitedly, turns around and calls out "JASPER!"
The Dread Lord watches as two of the three unfamiliar faces pay their dues to the Wyrdstone quickly. One makes his way towards the Flowering, showing appropriate deference.
Yes. Know your place.
The bow earns a small smile that touches the sinister Flowerings features as he watches the new Ling carefully. The bond of the Wyrdstone marks neither of them as threats to one another, but the season of Fear was as much a show as any other. "Flickerwhisp..." He rolls the name as if tasting a fine wine. His eyes are piercing and deep green, easily twice the size of a normal human's. They rake over the Darkling's form, scrutinizing. "Did she now?" He replies slowly, the smile broadening as he turned to the Spring Queen. "Nothing? I'm sure." he chuckled a little, thinking back to the message. "Ah, yes. No drink for myself, thank you" he replies to Sera, the smile becoming a smirk for the briefest moment. With a sweep of the arm Rhodes disconnects himself from the group and moves over to the Wyrdstone, looking at Flickerwhisp to follow. "Step this way. I understand your curiosity, for it is a most unusual object. Do you have an interest in the Occult arts?"
I have opened a Side thread here @Flickerwhisp DorianBLaCK
Flick wasn't intentionally being rude, he was just distracted... yeah that was the word, so he hadnt even processed Gerrit speaking to him. The only distraction away from the Autumn King was his wife, and the Darkling nodded respectfully to her with a shy smile "Yes, thank you your majesty... it's a nice city. Freehold has been inviting"
He begs off the offer for a drink from the Spring Queen, and goes to follow Rhodes obediently back to the Wyrdstone.
Jasper looks over at Liam and nods, finding it a very nice change to not have to look down at someone when talking to them, well not much anyway. The Beast is only very slightly taller than the Spring Ogre is. "Yeah. We're fairly new here. Arrived 'bout a month ago. Still settling in but we find a nice place to park for now."
Jasper gives a toothy grin from his long snout to R'lyeh and nods. "Sure thing, R'lyeh. Love the new look." he says with a flick of an ear.
The Coyote watches as the rest of his motley split off to go chat with the others and he can't help but smile as he turns back to Gerrit, nodding down to the Onyx as Jasper reaches down to lightly scratch at the pup in his pocket's ear. "Not too bad. We found a park over by the river and have settled in there, for now."
His ears perk up and back as he hears his name in a familiar voice and he turns to see if there's trouble for Mara. When he sees she's not in any direct trouble, he turns back to the other two Ogres in front of him. "If you blokes will excuse me... I'll be back in a few." he says before turning and taking a not-so-quick beeline to Mara.
He turns his head just in time to catch a glimpse from Flicker and that earns the Darkling a smile before the Beast's giant strides lead him to the food-laden tables. There's a grunt of approval at the spread and he makes himself a plate for him and to share with the small one in his pocket. He brings both over with him as he finally approaches Mara and the others.
Having carefully selected a few things that looked tasty, and a drink, she moves over to Sonnie Wu . With a smile, she holds the plate out, “Hungry?” she asks, knowing the answer already.
“How’ve you been?”
Sonnie had a mouth full of cake when Seraphina approached her. The Beast quickly chewed and swallowed the baked treat. "Me? Hungry? Never! I must maintain this girlish figure, after all." She snickered.
"I'm good," she responded to the hanging question, "Work's going well. Fugly's healthy and happy. The quiet stays at bay. How about yourself? Married life treating you okay?"
Only after a moment after Jasper joins the conversation she's having with Anatole and Circe, she heads off with a grin to go touch the Wyrdstone.
The last of the Strays presses Glamour to the Wyrdstone and feels the fluttering warmth of saftey-home-trust
love the momentum going on herejust want to make sure people are using the CTL tags or the CON bbcode to show where you're going when you leave the main thread to go to a side thread to make sure no one's waiting on you to post
Picking what looked like a grape from the plate, she pops it into her mouth, “Well, you seem to be doing a damn fine job. At least from the looks I’ve seen you get.” It was true, she’d seen plenty of guys and girls eyeballing the Beast.
“That’s great to hear!” clearly happy to hear it was going well. Then a brief look of confusion, “The quiet?” did she miss something? “Oh, married life is fine, kinda like not married life.” Things felt the same to her, except the Vow.
“Feels like forever since we’ve hung out! We should do something! Are you up for, or free rather, to hangout sometime?”
