Vaeri shrugs. "I'm just getting used to things. You know how it is...my old life was very chaotic and now...it's quiet."

Taking Vishanti's hand, Derika turns and starts heading back downstairs with her. Letting out a little satisfied sigh at what they got accomplished she asks, "So...what should we do now?"
"It would seem that we have the day to ourselves my love, any ideas on how you'd like to spend it?" Vishanti replies thinking for a bit.

Derika gets a silly grin on her face as her cheeks turn a darker shade of blue, "Well...I guess if you wanted to we could start planning some of our wedding now...before we have to leave? Would you like to go look at some rings or something? I know we're not getting married for a couple of months yet....but, maybe we could find a couple of things and I wanted to get you something special, you know...just because you're special to me and I want everyone to know it." Happiness radiating from her, she looks up into Vishanti's eyes, her own shimmering with emotion.

She nods, "Yes...we know. All too well. I completely understand how it can take some getting used to. After we get back from this trip, I think we'll be settling down too. Chris and I have different skills that would probably be helpful in a non life threatening combat kind of way."

Gathering up everything, they start heading for the house. On the way Gashka says, "So, after we get back to the house. Is there anything else that you'll be needing before we go? Anything we can do for you, or get for you? I'm sorry, I don't mean to bombard you with so many questions. I just want to make sure we don't leave without making sure you have everything you need."


"The clerics gave me the essentials," Vaeri answers. "Aside from food while you're gone, I should be fine."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

She nods as they approach the house, "Well, here we are. Since I won't be needing it anymore, I can give you my key." She says while unlocking the door to let them inside, "We do have some groceries that we picked up already before this trip came up, and I can leave some coin here in case you need something else."

Going inside, Gashka puts some things down on the couch, "In there is the kitchen and the rooms are upstairs, so is the bathroom. There's a nice fireplace down here if it gets cold, and I'll make sure you have a supply of wood before we leave. Did you have any questions, or anything you wanted to know? My folks are right across the road if you need anything at all."


Vaeri shakes her head. "I'm sure everything will be perfectly fine while you're gone."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Nodding she tells Vaeri where she can find her room, "Feel free to make yourself right at home." Looking to Chris Gashka smiles, "I guess we should go talk to my folks now."


Is Anyka still in her room?


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

I'm not sure if she's still in there or not. I think she was gonna go see Ryota about some....tea.


Male Human Witch 7 HP: 31/31; AC: 14(18), T: 11, FF: 10; Fort: +4, Ref: +7, Will: +6; Initiative: +1, Perception: +3

Chris nods, taking Gashka's hand.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Giving Vaeri a smile, Gashka goes with Chris back outside. Going across the street, Gashka knocks on the door.


Kealey opens the door. "My, you have a glow about you today, Gashka. Hello, Chris."


Male Human Witch 7 HP: 31/31; AC: 14(18), T: 11, FF: 10; Fort: +4, Ref: +7, Will: +6; Initiative: +1, Perception: +3

Chris smiles. "Hello, Kealey."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka doesn't even try to hide the smile on her face, "Good morning mama, how are all of you today?" There is a lightness to her voice that hasn't been there for quite some time.


Female Half-Orc Bloodrager 7 HP: 84/84; AC: 17,T: 10, FF: 16; Fort: +9, Ref: +4, Will: +4; Init: +0; Perception: +10

Leaning in a bit she gives her love a sweet kiss on the cheek, "Sooo....does shopping sound okay, or should we be doing something else?"


"We're fine, just finished up breakfast about an hour ago," Kealey answers, stepping aside to let Chris and Gashka inside.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka gives her mama a quick hug and kiss on the cheek before stepping past her mama into the house. Once inside Gashka looks at Chris and smiles before looking back at her mama, "We came by because there's actually something we need to talk to you about."


"Oh?" Kealey asks, a touch of worry in her voice.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka nods, "Well...last night after Vishanti and Derika got back from visiting Jexxa at the Temple, Derika told us that Jexxa was feeling rather miserable here and just wants to go home. She's the little rat folk girl we rescued from the spiders. So, Derika felt bad and promised her that we'd take her, as well as this Tengu fella...Kyoga, back home....tomorrow, after breakfast." She looks at Chris before looking back at her mama, "So...Chris and I were talking and...and I asked him if maybe after we got back from escorting them back home if maybe he'd like to make our....relationship more permanent. You know....like Derika and Vishanti? Anyways, what I'm trying to say mama...well, we're already going to be living together and I really don't see myself wanting to be with anyone else....so, we've decided we'd like to get married too....but, not until after Vishanti and Derika get married. I would never want to take away from their special day. I...I'm sorry if I just sort of blurted it out like that, but you know I have a hard time saying things sometimes Mama."

Kealey lets out the breath she didn't know she was holding. "I see. That is good to hear and I suppose that will please your father. You know how old-fashioned he is."

She pauses for a moment. "Do you think you will be gone long?"


Male Human Witch 7 HP: 31/31; AC: 14(18), T: 11, FF: 10; Fort: +4, Ref: +7, Will: +6; Initiative: +1, Perception: +3

"Hopefully, just a day or two," Chris answers. "Their homes aren't far from here."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Giving her mother a curious look, Gashka smirks, "What did you think I meant mama? I understand exactly how papa is, but I'm not doing this for him." She looks at Chris again, the grin still on her face. "I don't need time to figure out what my heart already knows, so there's just no sense in putting it off. Like I said earlier though, we'll wait until after Vishanti and Derika have their wedding, as long as they don't take too long planning it. I'm not sure I want to wait months and months, but I don't want take away from their day either. We'll just start planning things after we get back and see what happens. It doesn't have to be anything that fancy or anything. You know, just family and the few friends we have here. Location will depend on the weather, but they do have a pretty nice Temple here and it seems very versatile." Turning slightly she wraps her arms around Chris and leans her head against his chest, "All that's important to me, is that we're together...forever." Turning her head a little to look at her mother she blushes, "I guess I sound a little silly huh? I just can't help it though, I've never felt this way before. This is different, very very...different." Getting quiet she just takes a moment to listen to the beating of his heart and letting it calm her. He always had such a calming presence.

Kealey smiles. "No, it's not silly when it's love, Gashka. If you're sure, you're sure. That's all there is to it."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Still smiling she looks up at Chris, "Oh yes, I'm very very sure."


"If you want to tell your father, he's at the carpenter's," Kealey says.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka lets go of Chris and steps up to her mama to give her a hug, "Ok Mama, we'll go there next, then we need to get some stuff for the house." She says while taking Chris's hand in hers.


Kealey returns the hug. "Have fun."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

She smiles, "Thanks mama, we'll see you later." Gashka leaves with Chris and heads over to Mr. Meacham's.


Gashka and Chris find Thrainn sanding down what appears to be a dresser. The orc is focused on his work.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Keeping a hold on Chris's hand, Gashka clears her throat. Smiling broadly she says, "Papa, do you have a moment? We need to talk to you about something."


Thrainn pulls himself away from his work and turns toward his daughter. "I always have a moment for you."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Giving her papa a smile, "After some thought and discussion, Chris and I have decided to get married. I mean once we get home, and after Derika and Vishanti's wedding."


Thrainn glances at Chris before focusing on Gashka. "And you're sure about it?"


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka nods while her fave takes on a more serious expression, "I am more sure of wanting to spend the rest of my life with him, than I have been about anything in my whole life Papa. I love him, and I know he loves me. It's more than just a passing fancy.....and he not going to leave me for some ship and break my heart, or anythijng else remotely close to that because....I know he loves me too."

Thrainn nods. "I can see it in your eyes. I know he'll take care of you, just like you'll take care of him."

He lets out a heavy sigh. "I get my eldest daughters back and now they're getting married. It's a shame that life goes so fast."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Letting go of Chris, Gashka walks over to her Papa and wraps her arms around him. While resting her head against him she says, "We may be getting married, but I will always be your little girl....no matter how big I get and even after we have children of our own. I am just so grateful that we're all together again. As soon as we get back from this trip, we'll have lots of time to spend together as we plan Derika and Vishanti's wedding, and then ours. You're gaining even more family Papa....and someday soon, you'll have little grandchildren running around that you and Mama can spoil rotten." Gashka looks up into his face, her eyes damp with emotion as she speaks of the future to someone that for a while she didn't think she would ever see again.


"Not too soon," Thrainn says with a grin. He pats Gashka on the back.

Stretching up on her toes she gives her Papa's cheek a kiss, "Of course not Papa."

"Ring shopping sounds perfect," Vishanti says, practically glowing with joy. "I so look forward to being your wife!"

Derika's eyes twinkle with happiness, "And I look forward to being yours, and having you as mine my love." Gently embracing her love, Derika gives her a brief, but tender kiss. Pulling back slightly she smiles, "There was a market place that I saw, maybe we can start looking there. I've noticed a few different shops in this town, so finding rings shouldn't be too difficult. Any ideas of the kind of ring that you would like?" She asks happily as they leave the common house together.


"I'll have your furniture ready to bring over in about an hour," Thrainn tells Gashka.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka nods, "Alright, we're going to get some other household items, and do the marketing then. Chris is a marvelous cook, and a brilliant alchemist and doctor. I can't wait till we get home from this next trip, so that we can start making plans." She says, her radiant smile and joy filled eyes do well to relate her feelings for Chris, as does her proud tone as she speaks about his skills.


"Have fun," Thrainn says, going back to his sanding. He looks over his shoulder at Chris. "You two take care of each other."


Male Human Witch 7 HP: 31/31; AC: 14(18), T: 11, FF: 10; Fort: +4, Ref: +7, Will: +6; Initiative: +1, Perception: +3

Chris nods. "Yes, sir."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka giggles as they step back outside, "Well...that went pretty good. He's just always been really protective. You'll get used to Papa eventually, so...should we start shopping for the house now?"


Male Human Witch 7 HP: 31/31; AC: 14(18), T: 11, FF: 10; Fort: +4, Ref: +7, Will: +6; Initiative: +1, Perception: +3

"Yes," Chris says. "He's still a bit...intimidating, though."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Looking at Chris she smiles, "Only where his children are concerned. Papa is just like any other protective parent, he's just a lot bigger and stronger than most." She says in way of explanation, "Papa wouldn't hurt you though. You know that right?"

Derika slips an arm around Vishanti as they head towards thed side of town with all thed shops and little market place they had seen before. Derika had never been so excited in all her life and couldn't wait to get back home so they could start planning the rest of their lives together. Derika wasn't sure how Vishanti felt about children, but that was something they could talk about as well. Even if they didn't have children of their own, Derika thought it would be nice to have two or three children. They could always take in a coupled of children. She knew that war had a way of tearing families apart, and that there were always children who got left behind. She had seen many different types of people in this town, and many many children who justg seemed to roam around the streets aimlessly during the day. She wasn't sure if they didn't have homes, or if there just wasn't a school here to keep them occupied during the day. Though she supposed they could talk to Barclay about all that at a later time, once they both figure outg what they wanted.

As they pass by a park, Derika smiles as she sees a little eleven girl playing with an Orc boy and an adorable little puppy. Ooohhhh...maybe they could get a dog too. Derika shakes her head to clear her thoughts as they approach one of the shops in the marketplace that seems to be run by a Dwarven woman, "Shall we see what they have in stock my love?"


Male Human Witch 7 HP: 31/31; AC: 14(18), T: 11, FF: 10; Fort: +4, Ref: +7, Will: +6; Initiative: +1, Perception: +3

"Only if I did something really, really wrong," Chris says as they walk to the general store.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka just smiles and squeezes his hand gently, "Then you have nothing to worry about. You're not like Tikkle....you're different, and I know you would never do anything to hurt me. Just as I wouldn't do anything to hurt you."
