Talianda sensed the sudden intrusion in his sleep, snapping awake and turning to bite. He was half standing when he made himself stop, it wasn't nesissarily someone out to get him. He drew back, half limping away and staring at the newcomer. "Arina! Someone just came in!!!" he shouted, almost a roar.

Arina smiled and patted Janu's head "Don't worry lovey, I just have trouble sleeping through the night some times is all. Weird dreams and such you know?" She turned back towards the door to the kitchen "Besides, it seems we have a guest so we should hurry back and greet them." She mentioned as she walked into the building and towards the main room with her metal bun of firewood.

"you speak," Gero sais somewhat startled. he steps back. " I appologize, i did not know that this area had a building in it. i thought it was just another empty clearing." it is a very good thing i didn't wind up in a wall

Janu flicked an ear towards the inn, quickly asking the shadows to show her who lay within. It appeared to be an elf of some sort…though he sure started the hell out of Tal. The shadowy cat half giggled and mused lightly a moment. She then walked quickly inside, staying with Arina. Even though she’d giggled and turned her thoughts to the one inside out of caution, she still worried of Arina. Nightmares clearly… but what kind? She sighed inwardly, worried for her friend…but more suspicious of the stranger.

Arina entered the room and saw the man "Why hello there, welcome to Ein Kuß der Schatten Inn." She bowed her head in greeting before setting the bin near the fireplace and throwing a few logs into it, passing her hand over the fire place a fire had started immediatly. "Is there anything I coulc get you to drink?" She asked redirecting her attention to the man.

Talianda glared at the newcomer. He smelled of elf and... human? It didn't matter, he was almost landed on. "Watch where you step here, I'm not exactly in the mood for strangers right now," he growled, tail twitching. "And I would hate to break one of Lady Arina's rules..."


((Bikari and I are going to have to go soon, we have a prior engagement...))

"tea would be nice. My name is Gero. I seem to have come here by mistake, and will leave if i am intruding," he looks to the wolf thing in concern after its outburst." i do apologize... Maybe i should leave" he turns toward the door.

((Look like everyones going to have to go soon lol XD Oh well I wanted to go take a shower soon anyway))

Talianda laid back down. "No, stay if you like. I've had a bad experience with suprise recently, and do not take kindly to it..." he murmered, laying his head back down and closing his eyes. "Just don't bother me, please." he drifted back into his slumber.

((we're going now, bye guys!!))

“I doubt Arina will allow that” She suggested as Gero started to leave. She then shrugged her shoulders, sitting down next to the annoyed Tal. She reached over to slowly stroke the other’s ear in an attempt to calm him down. She didn’t want a fight here… and it caused a slight frown to appear on her dark lips.

Gero sits in a corner and relaxes a bit, making sure to keep an eye on what is going on.

(( gotta go))

[[haha, well, i'm back.]]
ARina nodded and put some hot water into a tea pot, today's having an oriental pattern on it. She put some of tal's tea in having an urge for something sweeter. "So Janu, I kinda want to find something for you to wear today, That's you know, if you don't mind wearing a dress that I previously wore..." She stated softly, knowing she had a dress that would look wonderful on the cat girl before her. But not wanting to sound rude in asking.

I…sure… if you’re sure. I mean, It wouldn’t look good on me compared to you I mean I’m me”
She half laughed, “but its your dress if you want to waste it…” She only half teased. Her blush and sad eyes showed that she really thought as little of herself as she said. She then simply turned to the tea, poring herself a cup absently.

(( i'm back))
Gero looks walks to the pot of tea and gets some for himself. "Thank you, Arina. Are you the proprietor of this in?"

((I'm back!! Poor tal keeps falling asleep and waking up...))

Talianda's nose twitched at the scent of tea. He peeked open an eye, looking at the elf and around the room before lifting his head again. "Tea? Who's making it?" he called. his stomach growled. "Um... and may I have something to eat?"

"What exactly are you," Gero asks," not meaning any disrespect or any thing."

gero hands the wolf thing his cup of tea

((no double posting, and try to nake it more than three sentances, bikari))

Tal smiled a bit, looking at the cup of tea. "I am a kind of dragon, a Shikasha," he said. "And I cant drink that out of a cup in my current state, unfortunately." This one is interesting. I wonder where he hails from...

[[sorry, got distracted.]]

"Yes, I would be that. It's a pleasure to meet you Gero." She smiled and nodded her head in small greeting before taking a sip of her tea. She turned her head towards Janu "oh no deary, it wasn't a dress i look particularly well in, but i believe it would look splendid on you." She smiled and Waved her hand, "come on, we'll go get it on you." she declared heading up to her room.

[[btw this is the dress. ignore the crap ass pain color crap i did, it was just to have a better idea for the colors.]]

" A dragon? Really," Gero says looking interested," I've seen my share of dragons, but I've never seen one like you before." He looks at the cup," Would you like me to get you a bowl?"

Alright” she stated with a soft blush, following her obediently. Quickly she looked over the beautiful dress, touching the delicate black lace. “Are you…sure” she whispered softly, glancing towards the other woman. She wasn’t sure herself…it’d been a long time since she’d worn anything like that.

"That would be preferable, thank you," he said. Someone who has seen my other cousins... Now I'm really curious. "And if you could ask Arina for something for me to eat, I would appreciate it."

Arina smiled at Janu "I'm positive, you should wear it. Like i said, it will look way better on you than it did me darlin. It's made for you." She nodded and started to help her change knowing the back being lace up is not particularly easy to do alone.

"She seems to have gone to her room with that woman... Janu I think her name was. I think I have some meat on me though." Gero rummages through his nap sack and pulls out a few long strips of fresh meat.
