Once in Talin's room, Mizuki led him to the bed, gently pushing him onto it, and locking the door behind her. Once he was seated, she handed the elf his water.

Talin looks at Mizuki taking his water. "How so, I figured if I was going to be punished I might as well enjoy it, as long as someone as beautiful as you does so, love."

Mizuki tried to ignore the rising heat in her face. "Stop trying to flatter me when I'm scolding you....dumb elf..." she muttered, flushing as he still was shirtless, bandaged yes, but shirtless.

Jack purred and chuckled a bit at Mei. Returning the passionate kiss before he pulled his mask back up. Those ears twitched and he blinked as the wolf raced past them towards the woods. "My lips are rough though," He raised two fingers to his masked lips. "..and the mask is soft. Surely it feels better than my lips?" There was that glint of mischief in his eyes. His tail in constant movement, swaying slowly side to side behind him. The tip flicking of it's own accord occasionally.

"Flattery?! You offend me by thinking I would do such a thing. There is a difference between honesty and flattery. Those that flatter are liars." Talin continues grinning at Mizuki.

"Ok...not flattery...sweet talk..stop trying to sweet talk me when I'm scolding you......just...N-nevermind! Put a shirt on, you'll catch cold." she stammered lamely, looking away so he'd not see her flushed face.

Mei shivered at the return of the kiss, not even seeing the wolf run past as he was a little distracted by other things… smirking he shook his head, seeing that glint of mischief that always made him putty in Jack’s hand. “Nothing feels better then your lips and you know it…” Mei murmured gently reaching to stroke his hair gently a moment, playfully burying his fingers in it.

"I would, except I think it is buried in the snow somewhere, I didn't see it when we came back.....maybe an animal or something took it. Your right though, it is cold, you mind coming here and trying to help warm me up?" Talin winks at Mizuki again.

With a squeek, Mizuki sat beside Talin, gently resting a hand on his shoulder and lifting a blanket to cover him and preserve his body heat.

He grinned a bit beneath that mask. "I'm glad you think so." He purred softly for a moment. "Let's go back inside.." He didn't wait for a response. Already pulling Mei back towards the Inn, and through the door. Jack made a bee-line for Cecelia. Sliding into a seat next to her and pulling Mei down into the seat beside him. His eyes on Cecelia. "Ne, CeCe-chan. Your wolfie ran off."

"Told you I'd punish you." she said, talking off her mask and setting it on a bedside table and watching Talin. "Besides.." she continued, voice more gentle this time. "You winced and looked like it hurt when I hugged you, so for me to cuddle and keep you warm would cause you pain."

"Around you..I feel safe..like I can be myself.." she admitted, sitting on the edge of the bed beside him.

Cecelia looked up as she heard Jack enter, tensing a moment until she felt a bit of his cat like scent reach her nose and his voice reached her ears. Nodding she glanced towards her tea. ‘Yes… he got hungry…” She responded quietly, sipping down some of the tea and shivering due to it having gotten cold.


“Know so…” was Mei’s mumbled reply before he was being pulled literally into the establishment. He chuckled and shook his head but let himself be seated, playfully leaning forward on the counter. Teasingly he muttered “Aww and here I thought we were going somewhere fun” in a suggestive tone. Hey just because he’d have to stop his flirty teasing ways with others didn’t mean he had to stop with Jack…

"I see....it makes me happy to know you trust me. But at the same time it causes a little fear.....because knowing I have your trust means that I can easily fail you, or let you down." He lifts the blanket and winces as he sits up beside Mizuki laying his head on her shoulder. "Thank you, and I promise to try my hardest to never let you down."

"You worry too much. You will not let me down, you just be yourself, and I will be happy." she said. Secretly, Mizuki's hand that was behind his back and shoulders was glowing faintly, her concentration on a particularly bad cut on his back.

"I see." He responded to Cecelia before nudging Mei gently with his elbow. "Now now, be nice. This place is fun..so full of drama and violence...it can't get any more funer than that." Jack grinned and chuckled a bit, that long tail of his had moved to curl gently and possessively around Mei's waist.

Talin smiles feeling her hand on his back and looks at her. "By the way love, thank you for not listening. I can feel the energies you are using, but I do want to make sure of one thing. When you are healing someone, the type you use, does it transfer the injuries?"

“Yes… my fault for bringing him in early…” Cecelia responded quietly, finally beginning to relax… now the smell of blood was so much fainter without the elf in the room…finally she could relax a little. No more worrying about leaping on someone ….


Mei jumped at the nudge but then simply returned it, leaning in to whisper in his ear “I can think of something more fun…” He then playfully kissed the ear he’d been whispering in only to lean suddenly away and put his hands on the bar. He then leaned on them with an innocent look, simply looking up at the roof. He smiled a little at the possessive curl of the tail…actually rather liking it.

Mizuki pretended she didn't hear him, taking the worst cut and sure enough, it was now on her back. She continued to repeat the process a few times, avoiding Talin's eyes.

Talin looks sternly at Mizuki, slowly sliding his hand across her back watching her face for pain when she didn't answer him. "Mizuki, do not do this to yourself.....I am not worth it."

((Be back in a little while, I gotta run to the store.))

"To me you are, now shush." she said, biting her lip to act as if nothing was painful.
((ok, i'll brb in a bit, gotta study. reconveine in an hour?))

Khalid smiled over at Steven and dismissed himself. The man stood and took leave of the room. On the coat rack he grabbed up his cloak and pulled it over his shoulders. The dark rich green complimented his skin complexion well. The deep hood was pulled forward to hide his face. As if sighted he took leave of the inn to wander int he grounds that surrounded it.

Jack grinned a bit and purred softly at Mei. "Now now, Koibito...we can't do..that...all the time." He leaned over so his head rested against Mei's shoulder. Nuzzling softly and purring lightly.

Talin passes out from his frustration with Mizuki and the face the loss of blood finally caught up with him.

((I will see, talk to you soon =^.^=))

Ivory the white wolf had neared the Inn when Khalid excited, causing the pale eyed creature to look up at him a moment. For a moment he simply watched him, cautious as always and wanting to see if he would be any threat…he trusted no one when it came to his mistress….


Mei’ response was to simply blush at the purr and reach over to pat jack’s cheek. He said nothing a moment, simply staring upwards at the roof. He then smiled and kissed his forehead, muttering “Not my fault you’re so seductive…” Jack was right of course but that wasn’t what had Mei deep in thought… shaking his head he reached into his pocket, pulling out his mother’s diary and beginning to skip through the passages absently. Her mothers scrawling script was hard to read…even for mei who was familiar with her terrible hand writing…

"Hm." Jack blinked and peered at the diary that Mei was reading. Those ears twitching a bit as he listened to the things around him. His eyes skimming over the words on the page before he reached out and plucked the diary from Mei's hands. Sitting up so his head was no longer on Mei's shoulder, but that tail was still around his waist. His head tilted this way, then that as he stared at the diary. His brow creased in concentration.
