Tapas Adventuring RP 2020-2021!

[DualDragons]

Danivere reels back, looking a tad bit annoyed that they were interrupted by Daminti.

[enbyscreamer]

Daminti blushed. "I...im sowwy...." He walks off, afraid of upsetting someone else. He slips his hand into Gorn's giant[ paw...hand....i dunno lol]. He thought that no harms could come if he stayed by Gorn and Isiria.

[Legendofgenii]

Gorn looked down at the little ape (Diminti) and ruffled his hair.

Genii smiled watching Daminti waddle away. He’d hang out with the kid later. Right now it was was time to-

“Alright, let’s get moving!” Erras announced, clapping his hands together as if he was herding animals. He’d been patient up till now, but they needed to shake a leg.

“Ow, come on!” Genii stopped puckering up to Danivere and grumbled to himself.

Erras was about to say ‘You can do that later’, but decided against it once he realised what the couple were doing. “If we don’t leave soon we’ll have to spend another night outdoors... let’s go.”

Gemma had collected up the blankets. They might not need them when they got to the city, but they were good quality so she may be able to trade them.

Gorn tapped his back and gestured for Daminti to hop on if he wanted to.

Bellah quickly gathered up Aster’s cups etc and stored them away.

[enbyscreamer]

Daminti hopped onto Gorn back and smiled. "Thank you Mr." He giggled and patted Isiria's head gently from his perch. Hex amd Ren just smiled and wemt to talk to Erras. "Hey where are we going?" Ren asked. Hex wandered over to talk to Gemma. "Need help?" She asked with a smile.

[Legendofgenii]

“We are heading to the city of Dovaan, to meet with the Royal Court.” Erras explained. “It is only a days journey from here.” As long as they didn’t run into any trouble.

Gorn yawned loudly and started to move. As usual he had no clue where he was going or what they were doing, but he was happy to follow the group.

Genii got up and held his hand out to help Danivere up. Maybe they could smooch on the go, he thought - grinning to himself.

“Oh, yes please...” Gemma smiled at Hex and passed her some of the rolled up blankets. “Are you feeling better now?” The Siren asked, referring to Hex’s battle wounds.

[enbyscreamer]

Ren nodded. "Wonderful...Does someone need to tell Gorn? She said looking over at the gorilla.

Hex smiled and nodded. "Much thank you. It was just a few broken wings but my kind heal faster than most." She said holding the blankets

Daminti smiled and yawned snuggling into the gorillia. He slowly began to fall asleep.

[DualDragons]

Dani accepts Genii's help and gets up.
With Daemon having rallied up the others, they were finally ready to leave.

[Legendofgenii]

“... I doubt he’d understand.” Erras said, watching Gorn set off with the sleeping infant on it’s back. “I’m surprised he followed us to be honest.”

---

“That’s good.” Gemma smiled at Hex. “A broken wing can take months to heal for a siren. Sometimes they never heal and it’s better to remove them.” She glanced at Erras briefly, but turned back to Hex with a smile.

“I’m glad you’re alright... and we’ll be safe once we reach Dovaan. The Aamami wouldn’t dare set foot in a Siren city.”

“... nett’il onii? (Wouldn’t they?)” Bellah commented as she started walking.

---

“Would you ever have kids?” Genii asked Danivere.

[DualDragons]

Danivere needed to think about that for a second.
"Hmmm, I'm not sure to be honest. I never really thought about it. I kinda shoved the question away when I was younger, but time goes by fast haha." She scratches the back of her head.

[Legendofgenii]

Genii smiled. He thought time went pretty slowly up until a few weeks ago. “I’d like to one day... start a family and stuff. I should probably learn how to look after myself first... can’t live off yellow mushrooms and mint tea forever.” ... or can I?

Erras began leading the way south through the woods. It was wild and overgrown to begin with, but the further they travelled the trees began to space out and there were signs of deforestation (stumps and piles of timber).

Gemma followed along. “I can’t wait to sleep in a bed again - oh - and have a hot bath.” She daydreamed. She had washed in the river earlier, but that just made her smell like a river.

[DelythThomasArt]

"I will dont fret" Aster assured Bellah, saddling Makna up and securing the saddle bags.

[DualDragons]

"I can teach you a thing or two about cooking?" Danivere offered.

[enbyscreamer]

Hex smiled. "Thanks! Im just....I'm glad to have my voice back!" She said laughing as they walked.

Ren walked over to Gorn and patted her son's head.

[Legendofgenii]

Gemma hadn’t known Hex before she had her voice back, so assumed the woman had been suffering from a sore throat. “I hate it when that happens. I used to loose my voice back at the tavern shouting at my customers... not that I did that often. They just got a bit rowdy sometimes.” She chatted as she walked after Erras and the others.

Gorn slowed down so that Rex could pet the young one.

@DualDragons

“I’d like that.” Genii put his hand in Danivere’s as they walked. “What kind of things can you cook?” He asked.

Bellah walked along with Aster and Makna. She gave the Spirit Caller a funny look for saying she was fretting, but that was exactly what she was doing. She heard noises in the distance and pulled up her hood to hide her own ears. Her feet were covered in mud, so hopefully the paws would go unnoticed.

Eventually the group would be able to hear voices and the clip-clip of horses up ahead. The route Erras was taking them joined a main road (if you could call it that), an uneven cobbled path - only wide enough for one cart, but there were several wobbling by and squeezing past one another.

There were travellers on foot too (sirens, humans and lion-folk), carrying various goods on their backs, possibly to trade at the city.

[DualDragons]

"Well," Danivere started talking, "I can bake pies and cakes. I also know how to make pasta and spicy foods... although I usually make them a little too spicy." She says squinting her eyes and grimacing.

[enbyscreamer]

Hex laughed. "No, no. It wasnt that. See im from Hades, and the god there needed payment for me to be with my mate." She said with a laugh

[DelythThomasArt]

Aster watched the other carts and travellers curiously, keeping Makna close incase a cart veers on the cobbles.

[Legendofgenii]

Genii laughed at Danivere’s expression. “That sounds great. Makes sense that you like hot foods... ‘cause you’re a hottie.” Grin. “... what’s Pasta?”

---

“Oh...” Gemma blinked at Hex a couple of times, then smiled. “We have dowry’s in this world too, but it’s usually in animals or gold.”

“I’m glad you got your voice back.” She said, watching her step on the uneven cobblestones. “Hopefully your God doesn’t mind.”

The other travellers on the road were giving Makna lots of space. Occasionally they’d run away or trip as they turned and gawped at the dragon, Gorn and especially Isiria.

[DualDragons]

"Oh Gen..." Dani smirks at his joke.
"Pasta? Well it's made of wheat, like bread but different. And it has tomato sauce."

[Legendofgenii]

On the busy road ahead there was a bit of a commotion. Shouts and screams could be heard, as well as the thudding of hooves and the clatter of armour.

The noises grew louder and it was soon apparent that a troupe of soldiers were approaching at speed. They didn’t seem too concerned about the welfare of the other carts or pedestrians on the road - shouting at them and forcing them aside.

Erras turned back to the group. “Get off the road!” He shouted. The road was lined with trees and overgrown brambles, but there were passing places the group could squeeze into... along with all the other pedestrians, horses and caravans who were scrambling to get away.

“I like bread.” Genii announced, oblivious to what Erras was blabbering on about. “... and I like tomatoes.”
