Craven: "Instinct." he says
softly before looking back ot Michelle again. "And Dante and I need to talk,
he's sulking I think."
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Paige:
"It's something that the more you understand our ways, the better you can
perceive our, well, Rage to be blunt about it. The righteous anger inside of
us."
Michelle (Rauko): *It seems to make her
nervius... the atention, but she.. swallows, offering a polite, properly
submisive nod as they keep looking her way...*
Jasper: *Jasper quietly enters the
gathering area and looks around a nods going to the Trueborns and a soft smile
to Paige and Michelle before he moves to a spot against a tree to sit..
Paige Nightsong:
She nods, considering going to find that book on
wolves to help explain things better.
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: The smile
does drop now. He mutters something under his breath about Shadow Lords
shouldn't sulk, and takes a long, deep breath. Best to change the subject, and
this is an opportune time to ask. "Craven-Rhya, I've meant to ask you. Is it
inadvisable for us to bring over visitors who are not of the Tribe, but are
still Garou or, um, Kin?"
Paige Nightsong:
Paige smiles over to Jasper but returns her
attention to Michelle. "C'mon over and join us," waving to the girl.
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: He inclines
his head to Jasper in return greeting, and to Michelle as well once she nods.
Craven: "It is your home as
much as mine." he says to Corbin. "I'd just make sure ot check to make sure no
secret talk is going on."
Michelle (Rauko): *yes. PAige invitation
SEEMS to make her even MORe nervious if posible, eyeing the trio she really
don't know. then her...*
Michelle (Rauko): *with a peer and a nod
to Jaspter, if shy unsure one*
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: He nods. "I
understand." And looks over to Paige with a warm, happy smile.
Paige Nightsong:
She frowns a little seeing that it is making the
girl more nervous, and sighs. "Did I do something wrong? Am I not supposed to
wave and invite her over?"
Jasper: *Jasper settles down against the
tree and looks to Paige, then follows her gaze to Michelle and smiles softly,
quietly watching...
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Paige: He's
puzzled, too. "You didn't do anything wrong. Maybe it's me. She might be scared
of Garou?" he guesses. Can't think of anything else. Paige isn't scary.
Paige Nightsong:
She nods. "I know at first when I was told about
all of this, I was pretty afraid. So maybe....." she then considers something
else. This might be a good time to ask. After all Corbin said a question
wouldn't be disrespectful. And maybe it wasn't going to be in that wolf book.
Michelle (Rauko): *But as they keep
looking her way, she might take it as a must, as she starts edging over.. not
really close and certainly NOT at arms reach*
Craven: Craven stands there and
listens to the two of them, watching the couple with a thoughtful look.
Jasper: *Jasper pulls out his PDA and
starts tapping away on it with the 'pen'...
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: He lightly
kisses Paige's cheek. "It has to be overwhelming. I've always known, since I was
a small child. I grew up among kin and true born; I was lucky."
Paige Nightsong:
She blushes at the kiss, "It has been. I have so
many questions. So maybe someone here might know this. If a garou has sex, does
he do it in furry form only?"
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: "Not just
the Lords either. There was strong Black Fury and Silent Strider influence on
us." He chuckles. "It was an interesting mix."
Paige Nightsong:
((can slip Corbin's in before Paige's please.))
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: BLINK. His
ocean blue eyes go wide. "Um." Trapped! "I don't...think so..."
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: ((*L* That
would be best. ~lol~))
Craven: "Instinct." he says
softly before looking back ot Michelle again. "And Dante and I need to talk,
he's sulking I think."
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Paige:
"It's something that the more you understand our ways, the better you can

Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: ((*L* That
would be best. ~lol~))
Michelle (Rauko): ((LOL))*half catching
the questiong makes her freeze again... they are not insisting.. she could
just... leave.. should leave... before she drags more atention*
Paige Nightsong:
Paige lets out the longest,happiest sigh of
relief possible and there is a really big grin on her face too.
Craven: Craven raises an
eyebrow at the question and smirks some. "My, you are green arent you?"
Jasper: *Jasper glances up from his PDA to
Paige's question, then flicks to Corbin and gives a soft chuckle as he glances
to Michelle, then turns his attn back to his PDA
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: "Paige,
um...do you know what we...look like in our forms?" Attempting to regain his
dignity and his senses. "It would be awkward and...well, it could be dangerous.
I don't...I suppose some do, but...ugh?"
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Almost
mortified, until he realizes Craven is directing that remark to Paige, not
Corbin. Whew!
Paige Nightsong:
"I just found out like what, not even a week?"
she glances to Corbin, then pulls out the necklace with the Uktena glyph on it.
"This is sorta how me and Corbin met. Well, I ran into him by accident at the
mall, but eventually it all came out in the wash."
Michelle (Rauko): *And.. hyum.... when is
visibly they are not eexpecting her to comply. she half peers to Jasper and
starts edging away*
Paige Nightsong:
"I don't know. I've just seen movies like
Underworld and An American Werewolf in London. That's what I'm imagining ya'll
look like," she quickly answers Corbin.
Paige Nightsong:
"And that would be...kinda....really awkward
and...painful if'n ya'll did," adding quickly.
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Craven: He
glances towards the necklace. "Dante and I discovered she has a kin fetch on the
necklace. I had wondered aloud if she did, since she hadn't been raised by her
family, and I asked him to go into the Umbra and check. It turned out she did.
Fortunately, there is an Uktena in the city, Natasha Carter. She's watching over
Paige."
Jasper: *Jasper glances back up, gaze
going to Paige again, then he looks to Michelle and smiles softly to her,
putting his arm out to her..* "Hey Michelle, why dont you come over here?"
Craven: Craven looks ot the
necklace and actually reaches out to hold it while around her neck still. Just
letting Corbin handle the question.
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: A faint
wince. Underworld? Better left without comment.
Paige Nightsong:
She stretches her neck out to him, since it's on
a a somewhat long chain and didn't want it to accidently break.
Michelle (Rauko): *blinks, shrking her
shoulders a tiny bit, before edging to Jasper, quietly, peering down*
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Quietly to
Paige, "Sometime when we're alone, I'll show you the forms. A controlled
environment. We don't exactly look, you know, Hollywood, but I think it'll be
good for you to know. You can maybe start to learn how to recognize us."
Paige Nightsong:
She nods to him. "Okay," smiling.
Craven: His eyes get a bit
glassy almost it seems as he studies the Necklace and then lets go of it with a
bit of a nod.
Jasper: *Jasper smiles slightly more to
Michelle and shakes his head slightly, his voice soft..* "You dont need to timid
around me hun..."
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: He smiles
back to Paige, trying not to let his go goofy, but it's hard not to as their
eyes meet and lock.
Paige Nightsong:
"Is everything okay, Craven?" she asks with some
concern,noting how his eyes get looking at it.
Michelle (Rauko): *She glances fainly odd,
for a moment letting clear sight to those yellowish red eyes, a faint nod,
glancing down again* I...thankyouSir *so softly*
Troy Lawrence [PB 4]: The young Royalist
comes up, out of the park proper and into the inner reaches of the Caern.
Immaculately dressed as always, a tan trench coat over the suit and tie. His
attache case is at his side, as always. The man looks up toward the group as he
approaches, eyes passing over each of them in turn.
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Blinks
and looks to Craven as well.
Paige Nightsong:
((oops....go ahead and DLP if she's looking into
Corbin's eyes she can't notice Craven's reaction *lol*))
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Then over
to the new arrival, Troy, to whom he inclines his head respectfully and
politely.
Michelle (Rauko): ((jee *G* sometimes I
think my chars are the only ones that don't go boy-girlfriend hutning right
away! *Giggles*))
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: ((*L* Nah,
she probably noticed right before and it's mostly Corbin trying to do the stare
thing *G*))
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: ((He wasn't
hunting! *L* He bumped into her in a shopping mall. Eeks, how mundane that
sounds...))
Craven: "You were saying
something?" he asks over to Corbin finally. Nodding towards Troy when he comes
in.
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Craven:
"The kin fetch is on the necklace," he says quietly. "I had thought it might be,
and Dante was the Theurge, so I asked him to check. He went into the Umbra and
confirmed it. We were fortunate that an Uktena in this city, Natasha Carter,
showed up and she is teaching Paige."
Michelle (Rauko): *oh... and then she
notices Troy.. and edges faintly... like if she did not want to be seen by him
at all*
Michelle (Rauko): ((LOL))
Craven: He nods some. "Yes,
I know there is a Fetch in it but I'm glad Dante could check but a shame you had
to be the one to remind a Theurge to look." and he shrugs. "So Natasha is
teaching you?" he asks to Paige.
Jasper: "How are you this evening
Michelle, how is your sister? and please, dont call me sir, JB is alright.." *A
glance goes in Troy's direction, then back to Michelle...
Troy Lawrence [PB 4]: A nod, respectful,
goes to Craven. Michelle gets a quick glance, confusion as always in his eyes at
her hesitance...Jasper gets a moment's notice. He makes his way closer. "Good
evening," he announces to the group.
Michelle (Rauko): *is now more fixedly looking down, her atitude slightly more submisive and so very much still, her voice coming out even more low* sheisfinethankyou....
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: A faint
grimace, but he doesn't contradict his Alpha. It's what happened. Maybe a
Galliard could have put it in different words.
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: Troy: "Good
evening," he responds politely.
Paige Nightsong:
"Yes. Trying not to overwhelm me of course. There
is a lot to sink in. So if I do ask stupid questions, please know I do not mean
no disrepect please."
Jasper: *He tilts his head down to see her
face, soft smile on his face..* "And how are you?"
Paige Nightsong:
"But Corbin has also been helping me too," she
smiles. Then smiles to Troy. "Good evening, Troy."
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: A slight
smile, his hand moving from Paige's waist to gently rub her upper back.
Michelle (Rauko): *she flitches slightly
when he titls his face, with the faintests of peers, and a little nod*fine...th..thankyou...yo...yourself?
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: The smile
gets a little goofier at her words.
Troy Lawrence [PB 4]: "Madam." He nods to
Paige. "My apologies...I did not get your name the other night." Corbin gets a
nod and an extended hand. "Or yours, I'm afraid."
Jasper: "I am well..." *his voice
soft..* "You shouldnt hide yourself..."
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: He peels
away from Paige in order to stand and formally address Troy, shaking his hand
with a firm grasp. "Corbin Justice Calms the Storm. Cliath Philodox of the
Shadow Lords." Definite Midwest accent with a trace of something else
underneath.
Craven: "Good to know he is
helping." and then nods to her. "I should probably leave you to your evening."
and then nods to the two of them.
Michelle (Rauko): *oh.... edigng even more
in her atempt to stay away of Troy's sight when he looks her way ((I missed it!
*blush*)) *a faint perk to Jasper, then back to stare down, fidgeting, not
knowing what to answer to him on that*
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: "Good
night, Craven-Rhya. I'm pleased I was able to introduce Paige to you."
Paige Nightsong:
"It was nice to meet you Craven. Thank you for
letting me come over some time. I promise I'll be a very good girl too."
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: ~Maybe not
*as* pleased as he should be, since Craven had to be so charming and suave...~
Troy Lawrence [PB 4]: "Troy
Lives-To-Tell-The-Tale Lawrence...Fostern Galliard of the Silver Fangs, of the
House of the Unbreakable Hearth, and Alpha of the Peace Eagle Pack." The grib is
firm and strong, though not painful. "A pleasure, Corbin."
Michelle (Rauko): ((awww.. Craven
leaving *nighto!))
Paige Nightsong:
She hears Alpha and knows what that means.
Galliard is a new one for her. Even if it might have been glazed over before as
well as all the tribes. "What a Galliard?"
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: "It is an
honor to meet you, Lives-To-Tell-The-Tale-Rhya." That's a mouthful, but he
manages to say it with the dignity it deserves. He inclines his head once more
in respect and sits down next to Paige, his arm going around her shoulders.
Jasper: *He glances from her to Troy then
back to her before he smiles slightly more, his voice still soft..* "Would you
like to see a picture of my twin nieces?" *Gaze shifting to his PDA as he taps
on it with his 'pen' saving the work he was doing on it, then looks to her
again...
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: He needs to
start mentioning his pack. Dilo, he thinks to himself.
Troy Lawrence [PB 4]: A nod to Craven.
"Good evening, Craven-rhya."
Craven: (worky in 6 hours
night night ;) ) And then Craven makes his way out of the Sept.
Michelle (Rauko): *a faint, shy nod,
peering to Troy, seeming at least releived he is not still looking to her, then
to his gadget*
Michelle (Rauko): ((ouch! nighto! rest!))
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: ((Night!))
Paige Nightsong:
"Oh yeah," she holds out her hand, distracted
again. Maybe she should start taking that medicine again for it. "I'm Paige
Nightsong. I'm an Uktena kin of Natasha Carter's."
Troy Lawrence [PB 4]: And his eyes glance
toward Paige, head cocking a little. "A Galliard, Paige, is a Moon-Dancer. Born
under the Gibbous Moon...the Keepers of Lore and Singers of Tales." His hand
comes out, taking Paige's hand and shaking it. "A pleasure, Miss Nightsong."
Jasper: *He smiles and taps away on his
PDA for a moment, bringing up the picture of his 1 year old twin nieces...* "I
took the photo just before I left my sisters to return here..."
Michelle (Rauko): *and she moves faintly
closer to Jasper to look at the picture, for a moment a more normal smile
peering to her lips, while she murmurs* they arebeautiful
Paige Nightsong:
"Moon Dancer," she repeats, nodding about the
Gibbous Moon, all of it helping her to remember. "Oh, you are the bards of the
garou."
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: He fights a
smile.
Troy Lawrence [PB 4]: "In a way,
actually, yes." He chuckles a little bit, smile faint. "Though not all of us
carry harps." A rare joke from the young Royalist.
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: ((And I
have to get going, too. *G*)) He murmurs to Paige that he needs to get some
sleep and he can take her home if she likes.
Jasper: *He nods slightly, then points to
the one on the left first, then the right..* "Iris and Rose... "
Paige Nightsong:
She laughs, getting the joke.
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: He grins at
the jest, another respectful nod as he stands up and offers Paige a hand-up if
she wants to go. Otherwise, he'll kiss her tenderly goodbye.
Paige Nightsong:
She nods, standing. "Yes, actually, I should have
you take me home. I'm getting tired too."
Troy Lawrence [PB 4]: ((Oh, I
see how you are all... ;P))
Jasper: ((LOL))
Paige Nightsong:
((I'm an hour over when I should have been to
bed. Work tomorrow in the morning :/ Good night!))
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: He slips
his hand into Paige, entwining fingers. "Good night," he says to the others.
Michelle (Rauko): *nods, watching them,
then retrieting faintly* theyseem happy
Michelle (Rauko): ((night!))
Michelle (Rauko): ((I am still here!))
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: ((LOL
Sorry, Troy-p! Silver Fangs are scary. *G*))
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: ((~wince~
Paige=Paige's, that sounded REALLY bad))
Paige Nightsong:
"Good night ya'll. Nice meeting you." And smiles
a bit more when he takes her hand, letting him lead her off.
Troy Lawrence [PB 4]: "Good night," he says
to them both. A glance is given over to Michelle and Jasper...not a wise idea to
approach. He heads off, further into the Sept. ((Thanks for the scene, all.))
Paige Nightsong:
((Hehe see how tired I am?))
Corbin Justice Calms the Storm: And heads
off home. ((Thanks, everyone! Night))
Jasper: *He nods slightly..* "They are...
I hope they stay that way for years to come.. My sister has stayed quiet though
on whether or not they are Trueborn..." *He gives perhaps soft sigh to that...
