Aara watches him go, letting out a relieved breath. That's done, then. This can work...

Her nerves melt away and a wide grin slides across her face. "Nuur'eni..." she calls, heading for her room. "Are you ready?"

Goddard looks down at his hands. "I...I only did anything that once...I wasn't quiet all there when it happened, and I regret it. I'm sorry. But never anything like that lecai. Not ever."

"I wish-" She stumbles over her dropped cup, dragging the sheet through water. "Damn it," she mutters, kneeling to clean up the mess.

"Anything with Kryn involved is interesting," she laughs. "Right around this corner? Ha! There it is!"

"Oh you're mean," he grins. "But this doesn't seem like it's going to be what I thought it would have been." He goes into his room and after much muttering and rummaging, finally gets dressed. "Alright lecai, do with me what you will."

She gasps and straightens up. "You injure me nuur'eni," she says dramatically, a hand in her chest. "I only moved here so I could flatter and cuddle you and take care of you."

Tallyn chases Aara down and grabs her arms. "Listen, I don't know what is happening, and later I'm going to have a serious talk with you and Gill. But didn't you order lunch for two and there's only one upstairs?"

"I can't go up there like this. He left a handprint!"

"Tell him there was a fight and you got caught up."

Aara starts to argue. "That might work...but Gath will say something."

"Well then he looks like the giant ass, doesn't he? Go upstairs," he commands, pushing her inside.
