[ Grog's not much bothered by the cold, so he's as shirtless as ever, just with a fur pelt draped over his shoulders. He waves when he sees who he assumes is the woman he's been speaking to, and holds up the bottles of ale. ]

If yer Night Sky, I think one a' these bottles has got yer name on it!

[wildwarden]

( Night Sky waved back with a chuckle. )

A bottle all for me? A man after my own heart. ( She pushed the door open and stepped inside, inviting him to follow. ) Come on in before I freeze my ass off.

[dedoink]

Heh. Whatever you can't finish, 'm sure I can help.

[ He hadn't been lying when he'd said a lot of people gave him alcohol as gifts this past Winter's Crest. He's got bottles to spare.

He follows her in, stomping his boots before he steps inside to shake as much of the snow off as he can. ]

Nice place. You been here long?

Yeh, I got my gauntlets. Was thinkin' 'bout askin' ta get my training room from Scanlan's mansion next. We could put it in the basement of the castle here, for trainin' an' all that.

[usedhuntersmark]

That's not a bad idea. I know that Percy has claimed a far off room for his workshop, but he misses the one we had for him in Greyskull Keep. I wonder if we can get him the one from Whitestone though....

Hm.

Sadly, I'll need more room to practice than you do, but at least I have an idea for a gift. Thank you for that, Grog.

[ Oh, there's a thought that hadn't occurred to Grog. ]

Caleb's little orange kitty? I didn' think he could carry somethin' as big as a hat... But I guess it ain't all that heavy.

Maybe it was him!

[zauberdecke]

You know, maybe it was him. It could've been Gunther or Kyorli too.

[ Essek has seen Grog play with the cats and sneak them fish treats. ] After all, I have it on good authority that they like you, you are cat-approved.

[dedoink]

[ Look, When you've only got two braincells, and Scanlan's borrowing at least one of them at any given moment, sometimes animals make better friends than people. ]

Well, I like the little guys, too! They're all cute an' fuzzy.

If you want liquor that's sweet as honey, that's mead. I ain't got any o' that, but they should have it at the Cask an' Anvil.

[ Grog will refrain from mentioning all the things he could do to make a girl scream if he wanted, out of respect for the younger folk using this network. ]

Willy's not that funny! 'S just what it's called!

[idratherdie]

Why don't you have any? Don't you like sweet things?

[ It's probably for the best he doesn't tell Angel any of that anyway. They'll just say it's gross and find something in it to troll him with. ]

Oh my god! Haha! Stop saying it! Please. You're killing me!

[ As timeless as they are, Angel is extremely immature at times. So the more Grog goes on about it or says it, the more the Devil is holding their sides and giggling. ]

I dunno if it's because you're so big and serious-looking or what but it's hilarious!

[dedoink]

I don't... not like sweet things. It just ain't what anybody gave me fer Winter's Crest.

[ Sweet things aren't exactly his favorite, but he'll indulge from time to time. It's hard not to, when your friends run a bakery. ]

Heh, alright. [ He looks for a second like he's gonna let it go... But then... ] Willy-willy-willy-willy-willy!

SHUR . WUTS THE TRIK ?

[coineater]

if you tell her what you want to say she wont just tell someone else
shell show you how to say it before that

when you have the time
write down what you think a word is and then ask her
you can put her answer next to yours to look at whenever you want

[dedoink]

[ Grog thinks about that for a minute before trying a reply. ]

SO YUR SAYIN SHE CUD BE MY TEECHR TO ?
HER AND PIKE?

» Venat

[dedoink]

[ » from here ]

Sure, you can join me, uh... What's yer name?

[ He squints at his device to try to sound out the letters of her username. ]

Uhh... "Ah-zemma-gayne?"

[heartofthestar]

Pray call me Venat. The name you see is my little joke, I fear -- 'Azem' is the Seat of the Traveler that I once held. Being as I am in a new world, and shall be traveling across it, I thought to call myself by that name once more, in jest.

[dedoink]

[ There's a long pause, as he tries to piece together what the joke exactly is. He's got two braincells and they're both working overdrive. But sooner or later, he gets it. ]

Aw, right! Azem again. Like yer Azem here, too!

Heh, sure am! Me an' Vex go way back. How d'you know 'er?

[theheartofahero]

We've talked over the Oracle a couple times before! We talked about you a little too, she said I should meet you when I had the chance!

[dedoink]

Oh yeah? Why, you some kinda barbarian, too?

[ He can't think of any other reason Vex would've recommended that a kid like him come Grog's way. It's not like he's gonna share a drink with a teenager, so the only other explanation would be that he's a fighter. ]

[ Again, that's bordering on too many words for Grog to follow. But the fact that they're spoken aloud instead of written down helps. ]

Oh, so she fell in love so bad she made her god mad at her?

[fragmentaryblue]

[She is unfortunately full of words at most times.]

Correct. Making promises to gods is a dangerous engagement. She does keep her vow despite this lover's persistence, but the next costs her life.

» Alice

[dedoink]

[ » from here ]

Yeah, tha's her! You know 'er?

[madcuriosity]

I do! She's- [Alice wanted to say friends. Were they friends? Was she allowed to assume such a thing of her ladyship?] I would like to think of us as friends. [There, that was safe to say, she's rather sure. It puts all the assumptions on Alice, not on Lady Vex.]
