"I...wait. what are....but..." Thorn babbles as she rises, more inebriated than expected. She raises an eyebrow at the other half elf.
"Oh, fine. But I'm blaming you just so you know." the gravity of her sentence is marred by a slightly less than lucid smile.
Suny grins at Thorn, not understanding what her friend means,
"Huh? But this in't no dif'rnt than when we wus sleepin' t'gether?" She replies innocently and completely nonplussed at Thorn's reaction.
"C'mon, Sesinia." ^_^ Suny maneuvers the three of them,, into gathering up the last of their group and the lot of them go swaggering off towards the bath house.
"Ah hell, why not." Sesinia exclaims gulping down the last bit of her ale. "Gotta get that nasty kobold stank off me anyway." She mutters as she tries to stand, grabbing on to Suny's shoulder as she stumbles along with them.
"Hey, you guys are invited to the party tonight if you want to come. I think I'll take my leave now."
"Hey, you guys are invited to the party tonight if you want to come. I think I'll take my leave now."
Suny nods and smiles to Karlee as the foursome wander off towards the bathing house/room.
"Aye, an' that we will, much thank'e kindly at that!" She calls to the half-ling, "But t'wouldn't do t' be wanderin' t' yer shin-dig still all covered in'a sweat an' stains of our toil now, would it?" She giggles as Sesinin drapes her arms about her shoulders, happy that every one of her friends are joining in.
"That should be intersting," she looks at Gandel grinning ear to ear.
"So, is your day made yet?" She grins at the gnome, her worrds a bit slurred.
You arrive at the bath. It's fairly fancy, but not too fancy.
Still wobbling slightly Thorn breathes deeply taking in the perfumed air. Bracing against Suny's shoulder, the tall lean half elf begins removing her boots.
As Thorn sighs and leans upon her brown shoulders for support, Suny looks over one of said brown shoulders and laughs softly at Thorns actions.
"Heh, y'se that's hwy my day clothes is so much easier." The gum-nut coloured Elf explains as she simply tugs at a knot at her hip and her 'skirt' rustles free to collapse about her ankles.
"I mean I c'n un'erstand all th' stuffs we're wearin' aginst th' Ko-boilies but really, fer walkin' around in places where we's safe? Why do folks here bother?" Suny truly does sound puzzled by what she's seen of the culture she has found herself in.
Though, to some one observing, it might be hard to work out who exactly is balancing against whom.
Thorn shrugs her shoulders unable to disagree with Suny's logic as she disrobes, attempting to not fall into the waiting water, but rather ease into it, savoring the heat.
As Thorn slips carefully into the warm, misty waters. Suny turns and begins to help Sesinia out of her gear and clothes.
It soon becomes apparent that the tanned Elf is far more interested in figuring out just how the Human Sorcerer's clothes work, than the person underneath who is wearing them.
Sesinia raises an eyebrow to Suny's 'help', but does nothing to stop the Elf from continuing. "We should probably make this quick, we have more Kobolds to kill in the morning." She says, slipping into the comforting warm water.

Suny nods absently as she holds an article of Sesina's gear up for a little more inspection. Some aspect of a buckle still catching her attention. "Aye, an' that be true enough." She muses then sets the item aside.
Skipping lightly over to the edge of the bath, Suny crosses her hands in front of herself, takes hold of the hem of her 'shirt' and simply 'flips' forwards as she whisks said cloth up and over her body. Swinging upright, she simply drops the thing on top of her 'skirt'. With toes pointed daintily, the Elf slips carefully into the bathing pool along with every one else.
>.< "Oh!" Is the Elf's reaction to the temperature of the water, though as she acclimatises and settles Suny doesn't stop until she has completely submerged leaving naught but a small amount of bubbles to mark her spot.
After what seems a very long time, Thorn and Sesina have time to look at one another, eyebrows slowly raising in wonder and possibly apprehension as they begin to think about the fate of their companion, possibly reaching out to check on the spot where she disappeared,
Suddenly Suny pops up on the opposite side of the pool, spraying droplets every where as she vigorously shakes her golden mop of hair free of water. ^_^
As Thorn and Sesina splash and swish water at the Elf to make her stop, Suny giggles and joins in to continue the rambunctious fun.
Thorn laughs as well, thoroughly enjoying herself more than she has in a long time.
"You're right. Besides, do we want to go to accept the invitation for tonight?" she says as she liberally applies scented soap to her skin.
Struck speechless for several long moments by all of the shapely female flesh parading before him, Gandel eventually snaps out of his reverie. The young gnome then quickly strips off his clothing, and with a shout of "BANZAI!!" jumps from the side of the pool, curls into a tight ball, and plummets into the warm water with a loud and explosive which soaks the three women in the pool.
Gandel stays submerged for several seconds, admiring the underwater scenery, before popping back up to the surface with a wide grin. "So," he says with wink as he grabs some soap, "who needs help with those hard to reach places?"

Suny both wards against the surge of water and squeals in delight. *^_^*

Suny, still laughing happily, gladly offers her back to Gandel, while shifting around to begin helping Thorn with her bare, tanned, back.
"Heh, hee," She catches her breath, "Thank'e kindly Gandel. Um, Sesinia? Th' thing about this to do we've been invited too? They'll be wearin' more compli-cated clothes, like, wunt they?" Suny's face clouds as she thinks of the couple of scraps of material that she's found sufficient to wear up until now.
"I dunt think whut I got tied up into at th' dock when I climbd ont' th' wharf be quite whut them folks'll be content on seein'." Her face scrunches as she wonders about her available dress options.
"My folk are just so much more sensible..Ye walk in't a gathin' wearin' whatever ye came swimmin' up t' shore with.." She pouts as she mumbles to herself.
"I'm sure we can find you some other clothes. A shirt and pants should do fine, don't need to over do it." Sesinia then starts washing herself.
"We'll find you something," Thorn says with a sigh of utter relaxation.
"We'll find you something," Thorn says with a sigh of utter relaxation.
Suny grins and massages into Thorn's shoulders harder, while leaning back into Gandel's massaging of her own back.
"See, this be almost like back home. 'Cept we usually find sun warmed rock pools t' relax in late in'a day." Suny as well beginning to relax under the Gnomes strong hands upon her own brown shoulders.
"Them buckle thingies, I do like them buckle thingies." Suny murmurs, her full weight leaning back upon Gandel as she begins to slide beneath the soothingly warm bath water again.
Practically melting from the attentions of Suny's skilled hands Thorn floats blissfully on the water's surface.
"As much as I could get very used to this, we should probably head back to the inn and make plans for tonight, " she mutters wistfully.
Just as everyone is about to leave the water, in walks in a suit of armor wearing only a towel. Closer examination reveals a pair of short, stocky arms wrapped around that armor, which is dumped onto the floor as the dwarf behind it closes the door, turns around, and stops in mid stride as he beholds the various different beauties for the first time.
"My name is Azral," says the dwarf as if he's in a trance, "are you in need of a cleric?"
"My name is Azral," says the dwarf as if he's in a trance, "are you in need of a cleric?"
"Well, Thorn needed someone to 'Lay Hands' on her earlier," Gandel pipes up from behind Suny, his head covered in soap bubbles as he lathers her back, "but I think Suny's taking care of her now!"
"Although," the gnome continues with a mischievous grin as he blows soap bubbles out of his mouth, "maybe you should give her a good going over to make sure she's alright, you being a cleric and all..."
"Sure thing!" Says Azral enthusiastically as he settles into the water and takes over the massage from Suny, "So...since I am new, what's the first order of business?"
At the sound of the deep gruff voice Thorn's eyes fly open, though at this point she is too relaxed to bother covering herself.
At Gandel's "suggestion" she glares over Suny's shoulder, about to turn back in protest as the dwarf's strong fingers begin their work, his knowledge of healing and anatomy obvious from his touch.
"Gods, between the two of you I really could get used to this, my mother never mentioned this part of adventuring" she sighs blissfully.
"At some point we should get out of here....but..not...right...now"
Suny blinks at the arrival of this new person and, after the brief introductions, seems quite happy to scoot out of the way and let the complete stranger have their way with her friend Thorn.
"So's, um, are you kind of related t' Gandel here?" Suny asks Azral innocently as she compares the 'build' of the pair, while wading over to the edge of the bath and perching upon its side, appearing content for the moment to simply let the water slide off her body and the air to dry her skin.
"Oh, an' would ye be knowin' anythin' more about a high flyin' to do whut be goin' on this evenin'?" She asks, while grinning at Thorns almost complete surrender to every one's ministrations.
"Dunno," answers Azral has he concentrates on massaging away the knots on Thorn's back, "Gilhim, leader of the Fire Cult, asked me to helped out with some adventuring party. That's all I know..."
As Thorn gains the attention of Azral, Suny quickly slips back into the water and slides up behind Sesinia. Mercurially quick she sldies her tanned arms around the other woman's torso, resting her chin upon the other woman's sun bronzed shoulders. Even as Sesinia stiffens under the Elf's embrace, Suny giggles,
"C'mon then! Lets go see about them other clothes and buckle-y things." Suny tugs at Sesinia's waist. Having finished with her bathing, Sesinia nods and the pair stand, wade to the side of the bathing pool and climb out. It's not until they are at the door that Sesinia throws a towel over Suny, to the elf's muffled reply,
"Awe, but I like bein' wet, slippy an' nekkid..." With the door closing behind them on their foray to garner Suny some better clothing for the up coming evening.
"I guess there's a party?" Asks the dwarf quickly scrubs himself down, "Maybe Gilhim will explain everything there..."
With that, Azral quickly gathers his things and goes to join Suny and Sesinia.
Sighing contentedly, Thorn glances over at Gandel as she floats on her back. "Well, I'm thoroughly relaxed, and I think you got way more of a thrill than you were expecting , so we should probably get out of here."
Pulling herself out of the water, Thorn mischiviously give one last cat stretch for Gandel's benefit before draping a towel around herself and gathering up her gear.
"Coming?"
... Sesinia throws a towel over Suny, to the elf's muffled reply, "Awe, but I like bein' wet, slippy an' nekkid..."
"Ahhh," Gandel sighs blissfully as he sinks back into the water after watching Suny and Sesinia saunter out, "that Suny and I definitely need to spend some more time together!!"
Pulling herself out of the water, Thorn mischiviously give one last cat stretch for Gandel's benefit before draping a towel around herself and gathering up her gear.
"Coming?"
"Almost," Gandel replies with an equally mischievous grin.
Gandel quickly ducks his head under the water to remove any remaining soap suds, then nimbly hops out ot the pool and towels off. With a swift gesture, the young gnome mystically cleans his clothing , making it appear as new. He then quickly dons his gear and leaves to join the others.
Azral suddenly remembers about the party the others are talking about. It's a reunion of Gilhim's old adventuring party. Several others are invited as well, including old friends, family, that sort of thing. Also apparently total strangers they just met today...
Gandel receives a small bounty for the kobold head he brought in, only 5 gp. Suny finds a tailor that can sell her clothes.
"Welcome, are you looking for anything in particular?"
Suny finds a tailor that can sell her clothes.
"Welcome, are you looking for anything in particular?"
Suny looks back at the Tailor she has been introduced to. Chewing slightly upon her lower lip and shifting absently from foot to bare brown foot. Though quite happy to have learned yet another new word, she looks to Sesinia for guidance in exactly what it is she should be asking for in clothes.
"Um, what d'ye have what's got buckles??" She asks with a grin though there is, as always, a twinkle of mischief sparkling in her eyes.
Still in a state of bliss from the pampering Thorn goes to the room they group has rented to enjoy a nap, trusting Suny to wake her when the time comes.
Once attired, and dressed in, her new things Sesinia allows Suny to skip off and gather Thorn for the gathering. At the Inn, Suny learns about keys for locks. Though she doesn't seem to notice the serving maids blush at her exuberant hugs of thanks. Slipping into the shared room to find Thorn blissfully a sleep, Suny sneaks closer, creeping to within 'glomping' range.
*jump*-*bounce*-*hug*
"Times t' wake up!" Suny hugs and snuggles the waking form. "We's goin' on'a diff'rnt kind of adventure!" She playfully and energetically goes about her task of bringing Thorn back into the waking world.
As Thorn's sleep is enthusiastically interrupted by Suny's mischievios pounce her calm state forestalls what would otherwise be a combat reaction. Her mind puts the pieces together even as she opens her eyes and hears Suny's voice.
"Ok, ok I'm awake," she mutters her smile turning int laughter as Suny tickles her into full awakeness. After a few minutes she disentangles, sitting up to stretch with a yawn.
"Nice outfit," she says, taking in the other half elf's new purchases, "I suppose I should get dressed. It wouldn't do to go to some banquet naked now would it?"
Getting out of thwe bed, Thron dresses in her explore's outfit, an ensemble with a slightly military flavor to it.

Suny pouts at Thorn's suggested comment,
"O' course, I did have all me worldly possessions in me travelin' pack. Keepin' everything t'gether an' th' important bits dry is always a mite of a hassle." She grins as Thorn puts the finishing adjustments to her outfit.
"So far, t'other then th' fightin', I in't seen th' reason fer all th' stuff people's is puttin' on." Suny's words possibly cause the nearby maid to blush as she speaks frankly as the pair walk out of their shared room. Suny skipping, spinning and twirling her skirt.
In Elvish
"I don't have a problem with what you wear, or don't," Thorn says with a grin "in fact it makes sense under water. And don't get me wrong, I'm definitely a fan of naked, jut..not in public."
Seemingly from out of nowhere, Gandel slips up between the two elf women, taking them both arm-in-arm. With a wide grin he says:
In Elvish:
“But I have to say,” the mischievous gnome continues in the Common tongue, “you two ladies sure do clean up nicely. I’m going to be the envy of every man (and some ladies!) at this shindig.”
“By the way, where’s Sesinia?” Gandel asks as the threesome exits the inn and strolls down the street.
Suny hugs the mischievous Gnome between herself and Thorn.At Gandel's question she blushes,
"Um, I done left her at th' clothin' place. But she knows her ways about a town, don't she? She'll be meetin' us at th' to-do, right?" Suny continues to skip lightly along with her friends.
Suny explains to her Gnomish freind.
