[Tavern Time for Argonians of Tamriel]

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia: Takes a sip of what the bartender called 'skoomadrinkish', but she knew it was only mead. She breathed in the crisp air of the doorway opening, but soon looked around at the dismal tavern. There were only a few guys around - mostly sleeping with the drink - and she smirked at her position at the table. It was the best seat - or so she thought - and nobody had even given her a second glance. This is what she would call a 'good day.'

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon walked into the tavern and stretched. it had been a long day so far...she looked a bit sleepy and she glanced around the tavern looking for somewhere to sit. She took a deep breath in, then breathed out again. She spotted the happy looking purple Argonian that sat in the tavern and walked up to her "hello" she said with a cheerful 'ring' in her voice

<sunshineley>"Why hello my dear snappid-glance!" Rae'Quia smiled up as Cemolon with the flagon spilling over with mead in her hand. "Whadda jinks you heersh?" She was not drunk, but her words slurred together anyway. Whether on purpose or not, maybe Raen herself didn't even know.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon took a seat next to Rae'Quia and looked at her for a bit "can you repeat that please?" she let out a little smile and ate some bread that she pulled out of her pocket. "hmmm...." she looked at the half eaten piece of bread then back at Rae "Would you like some?" she said pointing at the bread

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia paused, and shook her whole neck with vigor at the question of bread. "Naw thankies, my dear Snappid, but kindly joust." She still smiled, and with a nod, offered some mead. "I sloucher:" She said each word again slowly. "Whad-dah. Jinks. You. Heeeeershhh." A crooked smirk replaced the eager smile as she reclined on the chair that may have been too small for her large build.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon noticed how big the purple argonian was and it made her feel.....small. "oh well." she took another bite of the bread in her hand and chewed it slowly and she listened closely when the Argonian said 'Whad-dah. Jinks. You. Heeeeeeershhhhh.' The little Argonian was making out the words. She thinks she said 'what. brings. you. heeeeeerrrrrreeee.' or at least that was her best guess "nothing really....just looking around." She looked around the tavern, not lots of people were here today....
<sunshineley>"Kinks, my dear Snappid-Glance. Kinks thear all." Rae'Quia glanced around with Cemolon, following her eyes with her own. "Una goobish, nerr moocha." She shrugged and took a deep break before filling her face with more mead. "Soonish I musta; not seein Glaceis quile. House beans?"

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon puzzled at what the Argonian said..."...right." Cemolon closed her eyes and sighed. she cracked her knuckles and then opened her eyes again. she listened to more of the Argonian's crazy talk.  House beans...?  she thinks she said the following 'soon I must, not seeing glances while. How's been?' "eh....okey....pretty good....." The mossy colored Argonian still had no clue what the purple Argonian said at first, maybe something like this...'One goodish, not much..' she was still trying to figure out......

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia nodded at Cemolon's reply. "Meedish, er, goodeth." She took another swig of her drink. "Snappid-Glance?" She turned to address her. "Bean indoors with -uhh- Hovee..." She paused while putting a finger to her temple, trying to think of something. "Nah, nah...Skiii-Nii? Djou nocks annierr?" She seemed to be having trouble with her train of thought as well as her words, but she paused to hear Cemolon's answer anyway.

<Akhrrana>Ram was in the tavern as usual. He was not drunk (yet) Shadow-speak was drinking for once and Aljoi was asleep while shadow held him

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon looked off into the distance for a minuet then turned back to Rae "...snappid-Glance?" she questioned then shook her head alittle and took a bite of more bread then looked around somemore. she soon spotted the 3 familiar argonians. 2 younger than the one she remembers the most. She turned to Rae trying to keep her eyes on the Argonians a little "well...i have been....not doing much.....Ireth and Umari had gotten married, had twins, and adopted me....Me and Hoveeke became very very close friends...." she paused and thought more

<sunshineley>"YEAHYA! Hoveeeeee-kelu! Thadda menju." Rae'Quia smiled victoriously for a moment. "Jadda bean jean?" She lifted her glass up to the passing bartender for it to be filled once more. "GLUCOSE! ALL OF YA!" He staggered and refilled the flagon momentarily. "Glucossssse..." He hissed in her ear before roaring into laughter. Of course, she joined him, and raised her glass to laugh at him even more as her staggered back to his post at the bar.

<Akhrrana>Ram-Jei looked at Cemolon and waved. Shadow had not noticed anyone he was to busy trying out drinks and looking after his little brother. Ram was extremely lonely anyone to talk to was a good thing. He had found his children but now that hi had reached his goal he had no idea what to do. The death of his wife seemed so much more real now. While looking for his boys he had focused on them but now that he had them he didn't know what to do with himself.

<Akhrrana>the giggling woke Aljoi up he rubbed his eyes and stared. He would have said something but being mute he said nothing.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon smiled and waved back. and tried to figure out the rest of what the now crazy Argonian said. "hm..." she motioned for Ram to come over here by them. "Hello!" she called out to Ram. all this yelling might get Cemolon drinking, then......dun dun dun....she sat in thought some more listing to Rae

<Akhrrana>Ram got up and walked over to Cemolon Shadow has stopped drinking to take care of his brother.

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia's laughter was short lived, and she now looked at Cemolon expectantly. "Chows Hovreee-kenu beansauce?" She asked again with another sip of her mead. She spattered. "Skoomadrinkish?!" She asked the bartender who was now having a giggle-fest on the other side of his bar. "Nah, nah." He replied between chuckles. "Juma Juice." Raen sneered at his reply, and dropped the cup with distaste.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon patted a seat next to her then looked back at rae "very good ^w^" she seemed happy to be talking about Hoveeke. she took out another piece of bread after she finished the first piece

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia nodded toward Cemolon at Hoveeke's health, and then turned to Ram-Jei. "Neer smeedish." She flashed a smile softly at him. "Raen'Quia." She nodded toward him while indicating her name, and holding out a hand for him to shake as was the common greeting.

<Akhrrana>Ram had some bread and some Ale he was drinking earlier. He sat next to the ladies. "Hello ladies" Ram Said. Shadow stared and raised a brow at his father who seemed to be having fun with the ladies and shook his head.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon smiled "hello!"

<Akhrrana>Shadow felt hurt that his father was hanging out with the girls he still thought his father belonged to his mother even f she was dead and gone forever ( or so he thinks )

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia paused at him for only another moment; it seemed apparent that he had no interest in taking her hand or introducing himself. She lowered both hands to her knees, and looked down at the table. The chair that barely held her weight creaked at her movement, but she paid it no attention.

<Akhrrana>"So what brings such lovely ladies to a place like this eh. He smiled. his fins moved side to side with some excitement. He of course didn't realize it. "The name is Ram-Jei" he said as he took a sip from his Ale. ...

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon smiled "I hope you remember me, yes?" she asked ram

<Akhrrana>"Well I suppose I do remember" he said and smiled. "I'm good at remembering faces.. but not names heh" Ram Explained. Shadow-speak was starting to get upset watching his father acting like a teenager and to have forgotten his mother so easily

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia glanced over at Ram-Jei, and then back down real quickly. 'Quite a time to be shy.' The back of her mind buzzed with curiosity about him, but she tried to push it away. 'I never get to have any fun... Even Snappid-Glance knows him. Me? No...looked the other way.' She angled herself away from the two at her table, and considered moving. 'Well, it WAS the best table.' Not too close to the door or any drafts, but not so close to the firepit that it'd make you hot. She sighed in a mixed contentment and discomfort.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon looked at Rae "something wrong?" she tilted her head at Rae and put on her worried face.

<sunshineley>"Peaches." Rae'Quia looked back over at Cemolon momentarily. "Millions of them." She added softly while turning to the fire to watch the flames dance about. She always wished to fly; why hadn't she been born a bird or a fire?

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon was puzzled at the response she got "peaches?" she asked. she shot a worried look at Ram then looked back at Rae

<Akhrrana>It seemed that Ram-jei was only happy when he was drinking and when he was not he would have a sad face just remembering the death of his wife. For now.. he was trying to have some fun For once. Aljoi was under the table sleeping. He didn't like taverns but he didn't want to be away from Shadow-Speak.

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia nodded at Cemolon. "Peaches." She echoed as her mind went blank.

<WC-Mosstail>"peaches..." Cemolon slumped in her chair a bit then sat back up "is that all?"

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia turned to Cemolon's face, and met her eyes. "Yes." She said plainly as her brow raised, showing sad eyes. "But I did say millions." A soft smirk shone on her face as she leaned onto the back of the char to get a better view of the fire.

<Hijiklomo>The door to the bar was thrown open. A cold draft swept over the tables, and a hooded figure stepped in. Six horns protruded from his hood, and a long, dark scaled tail trailed behind him. "Wine, your best." the figure said hoarsely to the bartender as he sat in a dark corner. A pair of cold, yellow eyes peered out from under the hood.
<Hijiklomo>Umari kept his face hidden in the bar. His contact was a stickler for... discretion. He didn't aim to upset a potentially important business associate.

<sunshineley>The bartender snored; he had fallen asleep while cackling about Skooma. Rae'Quia didn't jump when the door had flung open, but she did look to see who it was. Nothing was extracted from his presence, and she was growing weary, so she returned to her position gazing at the flames dance around the dried wooden logs.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon sat there in thought then had a puzzled look on her face "what does peaches mean?" she sat in her chair for a bit deciding not to bother the Argonian anymore. She looked at the hooded figure that walked into the bar. she didn't like him. so far.

<Akhrrana>Ram-Jei smiled at Rae and grinned. "Hello miss my name is Ram-Jei" He turned around when he heard the new person arrive.

<Hijiklomo>Umari's amulet hummed with the presence of many familiar souls. Hmmm... odd place for that. he said to himself. But on closer inspection there were two Argonians he knew very well, and one he'd only met once. Cemolon, Rae, and a man he believed was named Ram-Jei. Just then the door opened again, much more quietly this time. A frail, meek looking Khajiit with eyes that darted from side to side carefully came into the bar, before looking at Umari.
<Hijiklomo>Umari rolled his eyes, knowing what was coming next.
<Hijiklomo>The pitiful looking Khajiit sat down across from him. "When are the sands warm?" he asked, in a ridiculous 'super spy' tone of voice.

<sunshineley>"Peaches are a kind of fruit, my dear Snappid-Glance." Rae'Quia didn't look at Cemolon this time; it seemed that she was quickly losing either interest in the conversation or people, or in the idea of consciousness. "I am aware, Frawline." Raen spoke to Ram-Jei now, indicating that she had already heard him say his name. The chair groaned beneath her weight, and fractured. Before another word could be spoken the wood splintered, and Raen found herself sprawled on the floor. She smacked her lips together. "How unfortunate." She crossed her legs into a sitting position, and made no move to get up or find another seat.

<Hijiklomo>Umari answered, his voice dark and sarcastic. "When they're made out of Moon Sugar." Rae's chair broke, and the noise made the Khajiit jump. "Is she a spy!?" the Khajiit shrieked.

<Akhrrana>Aljoi woke up from under the table and crawled around and went up to Shadow-Speak. he was bored. Shadow was not paying attention to his brother he was just star8ng at his father. Shadow was upset and was thinking of getting up and going to confront him.

<WC-Mosstail>"well I know that......" she decided to make up a silly nick name for the Argonian since she was calling her 'Sanppid-Glance'. "....Purple-Peach." she said. it was the first thing that popped into her head. talking about peaches and the Argonian's color. Cemolon snickered in her head, she knew it was stupid, but she didn't care.

<Hijiklomo>"They're all spies!!" the Khajiit continued to shriek. He pulled a knife out.
Umari sat still, blowing his breath out in exasperation. "Skooma addicts... never deal with them." A flick of his wrist and the Khajiit went flying through the wall of the bar, splintered wood and dust flying through the air. The Khajiit let out a high pitched scream and ran off.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon jumped when she saw a flying Khajiit and brushed the dusk off of her arms. She let out a loud yell and fell out of her chair and hit the ground next to Rae, still yelling

<Akhrrana>Aljoi screamed in fear he was able to make sounds it was only words he couldn't make.

<Hijiklomo>Umari lowered the hood, looking at the assembled group. "My apologies Cemolon, and to you as well lady Rae. I lost my patience." he bowed to the men he'd never met before. He was grouchy now...

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia couldn't help but laugh; at the Khajiit first, and then Cemolon's name for her. "Puh-purhehehehe..." She trailed off for a moment, and then regained her composure to look at Umari. He has seemingly blown his cover by speaking loud enough so that the whole bar could overhear his conversation. "Heheheh, yeah." She agreed with him awkwardly. "Snappid, lax-re." She looked at Cemolon who was having a nervous breakdown beside her. "Laaax-reee..." She repeated while stroking her shoulder in a comforting way as Umari uncovered his identity.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon mumbled stuff under her breath and shot an angry look at Umari. she held her finger up to Rae "it has a splinter!" her bottom lip shook and there you could see and tiny piece of wood that stuck into her pointer finger

<Akhrrana>Shadow held his little brother "Don't worry Aljoi its ok" Shadow told his little brother. Aljoi nodded.

<Hijiklomo>Umari growled out at the bartender. "I'm still waiting on that wine!!" he noticed Cemolon's angry look. He raised a confused brow. "What have I done to make you upset with me, Cemolon?"
He looked at the crying Argonian, Aljoi. "And barkeep, get the lad something to eat." he barked out. Need to remember to keep the magic hidden more. he thought to himself.

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia blinked as Cemolon shoved her finger into her face. "Golly!" She shook her head in an exasperated way while still blinking rapidly. "Heeeery Snappid..." She concentrated, and easily removed the small piece of wood from Cemolon's finger. "Zere, no narrrrrm." She smiled in a sheepish manner and then looked toward Umari. "Hijo Umakun." She waved in greeting.
Barkeeper: Snooooooorrrreee....

<Hijiklomo>Umari snarled. "FINE! I will get it myself." he stood up, and stormed over to the bar.

<WC-Mosstail>Before Rae had even touched the splinter Cemolon was already holding her breath. and when she pulled out the splinter.....Cemolon screamed at the top of her lungs, it hurt Cemolon throat but she screamed any ways, to her it was like pulling a bullet out of her shoulder. she burst into tears after she was done shaking up the tavern with her scream.

<Hijiklomo>Umari's head snapped around, wincing at the scream. He abandoned the wine and went over to them, crouching next to Rae and Cemolon. "Mister Ram'jei, do you have any healing herbs on you by chance?" he said, taking Cemolon's finger gingerly in his hand. While he was there, he turned to Rae. "Still speaking to the MadGod often?" he smirked.

<Akhrrana>Ram stared unsure of what was going on. "Yes I do. I'm no master alchemist but I learned quite a few things from my wife. She died some years ago i just keep her memory alive. well here you are" he said and handed him the herbs

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon looked at her finger after she was done crying "hey....that didn't hurt so bad!" she said with a happy smile there wasn't even a mark where the splinter was.

<sunshineley>Rae'Quia was not prepared for the assault of noise on her eardrums, and sudden emotion that emanated from Cemolon. She was taken aback, and her reaction was as such that she almost leaped from her skin, and hit the wall behind her with a terror struck face. Not a sound was heard from Raen after the weeping had ceased, and she seemed to be frozen to the back wall; not moving a fraction of an inch to neither sound nor touch.

<Hijiklomo>Umari sighed, gently pressing the herb pack over the finger. "There, that will help with any little infections." he said. He didn't know why Cemolon seemed so angry with him.
He stood straight up, trying to make sense of the confusion. It had started out as a simple meeting.

<WC-Mosstail>Cemolon stood hugged Umari then sat back down and poked Rae's cheek "Are you okey? I'm sorry if I scared you"
