Feeling a little more steady knowing that Tehanna and Terra are taking care of Chris, and his little....friend...she walks over to Flynt and leans against the rail next to him.
"Hey....Chris has been acting all weird so I sent Tehanna and Terra down to talk to him. Terra was worried what you would think if she went talking to another guy....but really I sent her down there to distract Renard so Tehanna could talk to Chris alone. I don't know what it is...but something really doesn't feel right to me about that fox. Chris has been acting strange ever since I saw him talking to it a day or so ago."
She pauses for a moment or so, afraid that if she said too much more that her family would start thinking she was crazy. Huh...family? Yeah...I really do think of them that way....well, all except for Tikkle. I always felt something different about him.... She shakes her head while a slow smile spreads across her face, then looks back at Flynt.
"Thanks for talking to Terra too. She seems much....happier than I've seen her in a while." She nudges him lightly with her elbow and smiles.
Gashka |
She laughs a little nervously, "Yeah...right....he's a witch and the fox is his familiar? Can they talk to their witches? There's a lot about Chris that we don't know....there's a lot about himself that he himself doesn't understand or even remember for that matter. I just don't want to see him lose himself completely. I can tell he's a good person...but there seems to be something holding him back...I'm sorry, don't listen to me. I probably sound pretty crazy right now....maybe it's just all this salty air getting to my head....I'm sure everything will be just fine...I hope."
She stares out at the dark expanse of the ocean for a minute before looking up at the stars. She chews on her lip for a minute absentmindedly, one of her nervous habits before turning back to him.
"Well...I guess I should go find Tikkle...I was kind of needing to talk to him."
Tikkle |
Tikkle can be found having a drink with Jeggs and laughing with other crew members who are back to their revelry and abuzz with talk of the strange happening and the enigmatic man.

She stops before walking away and places a hand on his arm, "Thanks Flynt" She takes her hand back and walks towards the laughter.

Terra emerges on deck, gripping a fox and holding it like child and her new pet.
making sure to close the door behind her. come Renard, there's a party up here, lets find you a special treat. dragging renard to the food, Terra looks for a bit of morsel that a dog would like, thinking a fox is like a dog, right?
after we have a snack we can play fetch or some other game you might like, ok?

"Manere volui, in navi," Christophe says. "Ad esse tibi adhaerent. Non passurum Renard, non vita, quid eligam mihi. Aut auferre minatus potentia in relatione ad aliud me vis maleficus. Tandem ego mihi ipse solus. Vobis dicere, quod suus 'iustus a Vulpe nexu est patronum, qui mihi vim patitur gerent."
Gashka |
Gashka walks up to Tikkle, making her way through his other crew members she stops in front of him.
"The ship looks....absolutely beautiful, but....I was wondering, could we just go somewhere and talk?"
Vallterra |
Terra moves away from the cherry pie, oh yeah that's right you like meat, I hope, Terra finds the meat pie and grabs it.
lets go sit down and have some ok? Terra keeps a grip on the fox but she tries as hard as possible to not hurt him.
I sure hope we can be friends, you are such a cute little fox, at least from what i can tell. you know Chris gave a potion to cure my blindness, but I haven't taken it yet. He is a nice guy. You guys gonna stay with us, I think it would be great.
Terra takes a seat on the deck near one of the masts to share the meat pie with Renard.
Renard the Fox |
I wish you would have fallen for him... The fox nibbles on the meat pie. He relaxes a bit. It would be fine, whatever happened. Tomorrow would be another day.

A lump caught in Tehanna's throat, "Sic tibi non vis ad aliquid faciendum cogantur facere quod minari viribus amissis." Her eyes misted up as she asked, "Quid est aliud quam quod quid accidit?"
"How is that any different than what happened to me?"
Tikkle |
"Not nearly as beautiful as you." He interjects sincerely.
"Of course, love. What's wrong?" Tikkle places his arm around Gashka's waist and walks her toward the bow of the ship.
Gashka |
Moving a piece of hair away from her face she looks at him, "Tikkle....I really care about you and I've been honest about my feelings.....so, why couldn't you just tell me what you were planning?"

"Maleficum elegi ut aliis auxilio" Chris says, getting out of the cart. "Sciebam me habere ad aliquid dare potest. Sciebam enim quod vivere non anima, sed sola potentia omne quod habet ... consentii Renard ... Nescio quid faciam. Si autem non egero, si vis ad vitam ... probans hoc a me agetur."
He sighs. "Quid aliud fuit transieris. Propter hoc ecce ego cibum electiones."
"What you went through was different. I'm in this mess because of my choices."
Gashka |
I LOVE that video....and the puppy one. Terra could accidentally knock Renard into stuff around the ship...and it would be totally innocent. Just don't do CPR on him when you knock him unconscious. LOL Man....I really just don't like that fox do I? Whether two legs or four, if it walks like a bully, and talks like a bully....it's a bully.
Taking hold of one of his paws she looks up into his face, "I'm not upset really....just....a little caught off guard. By the way....did I tell you how handsome you look tonight?" She gives him a little smile then, her tusks showing slightly.
Lo'Laan Jin |
Jin's eyes dance across Anyka's form as she approaches, he can't help but grin at his fortune.
"You're looking particularly gorgeous tonight, Anyka. Would you care to dance?" Jin asks holding out his hand.
Tikkle |
"oh... I, I'm sorry, love. I guess I just got so caught up in the idea of surprising you with the little deal that I didn't think about how confused you probably were..." Tikkle looks at his feet sheepishly, but looks up and smiles at her compliment. "too bad no one's gonna notice, next to your shining beauty, who could?"

Gashka |
She blushes a little and can't hide her own smile, "Oh Tikkle....what am I going to do with you?" She wraps her arms around him and nuzzles into his chest. She lets go of him after a couple of minutes and steps back, taking hold of his arm as she does so.
"C'mon, you can try to dance with me....but I make no promises that I'll be any good."

Tehanna didn't know what to say. Here was a man that had dedicated his life to helping others, including her, but the price for that gift is a life of loneliness. Releasing his hand, she finally said, "In veritate comperi quia non est id quod potestis, sed faciet, si iam mihi non possem vivere perdas me ... quod si donum essent." Taking a step back the Dark Elf added, "Christophorus Bonum nocte, quaeso, iucundabitur in vestri semita." With a heavy heart, she turned and left the cargo hold. Once back on deck, she stood by the railing and stared out into the darkness, arms crossed in front of her.
"Good night Christophe, I pray you find happiness on your path."
Christophe Debroux |
Christophe sits back down on the cart, crushed. He puts his head between his knees, but refuses to cry. Renard was right. Nobody cared for him like the fox did. He curls up on the bedroll and goes to sleep, the deep emptiness in his heart gnawing at him.
Tikkle |
just for schitts and giggles ;P
The half elf woman from earlier walks up to Ash. She is wearing a form hugging purple dress that revealed a striking beauty that her usual clothes hid. She brushed her jet black hair away from her face as she spoke, "um, 'scuse me, sir, but you do know this is a dance and not a 'lean on the rail and drink' right? Come on! I need a good partner for once" she says with a smile.

Christophe tries to sleep, but a thought burns in his mind bringing him back to consciousness. He throws off his clothes and quickly gets dressed in the officer's uniform. Smoothing his hair as best as he can with his hands, he hurries up the steps to the top deck. Spying Tehanna by the railing, he rushes to her.
"Tehanna," Chris calls softly. "Non curo. Quod si mea numina non curat opes habeo servat solum. Et omne cor intelligitur amor, si modo ego dimittam vos, et contra naturam fieri volo. Omnia, et dabo vobis. Inter caelum et infernum, in quem nulla in parte aut vos a me desinant. Atque utinam pereant vulpes minas. Inveniam ad auxilium aliunde, sed non dividit eam, hoc nostrum est pretio. Una aut altera nox Quamvis choro tibi obstat libenter rejiciunt."
He offers his hand to the dark elf.
Vallterra |
Terra was sitting on the deck with Renard enjoying the pie, but more importantly having fun with the fox. petting him, and playing with him. after a bit, she notices Tehanna came up. Terra wasn't sure what was going on, but it didn't take long fro Chris to join her.
Terra smiles. Hey Renard, it sounds like Chris and Tehanna are hitting it off, that's great. I really would like for both of them to be happy, and besides maybe if you guys travel with us, we can play together some more.
The one obvious thing though is Terra is talking to a fox, while all of her friends seem to have "dates"
Renard the Fox |
Renard sighs, feeling bad for Terra. It was a bit more than being held captive, but he could feel something welling in the young woman. He sniffs then barks in Flynt's direction. "Hey! Get over here!"
He knew the human wouldn't know what he was saying, but hopefully it would be enough to call his attention.
Flynt |
Flynt is staring off into the sky when he hears barking. He looks over to see that strange fox that Chris was always talking to seemingly staring at him. He walks over to the pair. "Sorry, I got caught up daydreaming. Wanna dance? I wish you could see how beautiful you look." Flynt asks taking Terra by the hand.
Tikkle |
Tikkle takes Gashka's hand and leads her to the deck cleared for dancing. At his cue, the assorted instrumentalists play a smooth melody that seems to flow like the sea itself. The becalmed ship moves very little, but he can sense Gashka's nervousness. Nevertheless, he holds her close so that she can feel how steady he is, as much a part of the flow of the water as the ship is. There was never a rigidity in Tikkle, nothing about him was like solid ground. However in this setting, she could see where his strength came from, the ability to flow with anything that makes her feel so safe with him exemplified in a dance.
I hope this makes sense, but I'm sleepy, so whatevs. Kitty out.

Gashka |
Gashka allows him to lead her about the deck in dance. Even though she feels awkward and clumsy, Tikkles graceful movements set her at ease as she seems to sway with him. She leans in close and takes in the smell of him, smiling she forgets about everything else and sees only Tikkle.

Flynt |
Terra stands up, she shyly turns away blushing a bit. I don't have to see, I feel beautiful just being with you.
Terra takes Flynt's hand to dance.
"Yea and that's great. But what I wouldn't give for you to see how I see you. Oh well." Flynt remarks while dancing with her
Christophe Debroux |
"Quod pulchra habitu ad te," Chris whispers to Tehanna as he puts an arm around her back. Though he wasn't well-versed in dancing, he had watched others do it. In his travels, he had been to festivals and balls, picking up a little culture wherever he went. He smiles warmly and sincerely at the dark elf, hoping to, at least, not step on her feet.
Tikkle |
I'm happy with it :)
