*Rita dries her hair, and wraps it into it's usual ponytail. She then walks over and knocks on Izriels bathroom door.*
Rita: You okay in there?
*Awkwardly crosses her arms across her chest.*

-----
*Jake smiles.*
Jake: Come on, we can play some video games.. smoke some cigarettes.
*He shrugs.*
Jake: Anything you want to do.. just take it easy.. do you need help walking?

*frowns*
I'm coming too.
*takes Maiev's hand*

*Santiago shrugs*
S: (The Grinch is a green, furry creature. He didn't like Christmas, and tried to end it. He stole gifts, Christmas trees, everything. Eventually he learned to enjoy Christmas, but not right away. The Scrooge was an old man that was greedy, but after some ghosts spooked him, he was nicer. Even gave his worker a break from work, too.)

Oh by the Heavens, I am doing amazingly...
*Quickly sinks under the water again and screams, which only sounds like a couple bubbles*
Ohh...Mhmhm...

~

*Maiev shakes her head*
M: You won't like what you see. Better for you to stay here.
*Gets up and pulls on some bigger pants*

~

*Denny shrugs and stands up with a fair bit of difficulty*
D: I...I don't know.

~

*Joalia seems entranced*
Joal: (Cooooool...What made them both change their minds?)

...By the gods, my mind is more fethed than I thought it was. Wasn't there a woman here earlier? A bit pale, and quiet...

I've already seen you do it. Besides, it wouldn't be the first time I've seen something die.

*Santiago smiles*
S: (The Grinch heard singing. He thought it was beautiful and gave up the gifts. Scrooge was afraid of how people would remember him, after seeing what it was like after he died.)

*Rita frowns.*
Rita: Okay, I will leave you to it...
*She shrugs, and walks towards the bar to speak to Mason.*

---
*Jake immediately wraps a arm around Denny's waist, and helps her walk.*
Jake: Here, I can help... let's go then...
*He watches her with concern, and starts leading her out of the med bay.*

*Occasionally doesn't get under the water in time to scream*

~

*Maiev sighs, and nods*
M: You know anywhere I can drain people without getting in trouble?

~

*Joalia smiles and cuddles Santiago*
Joal: (That sounds nice! Should we continue decorating then? Maybe we can find something that will make Verdai to like Christmas again.)

~

*Denny limps out of the medbay, with a fair bit of effort, but doesn't show it*
D: Our room?

*Horus hears the screaming*
Horus: What the-...
*He wraps a towel around his waist and runs to the door where Izriel is, he hammers on it*
Horus: Is everything alright in there?! Are you okay?!


*Gharn's stomach growls and he goes to the kitchen to get something to eat*


*Iris sits on a sofa doing nothing much*

*Rita finds him passed out in the bar and sighs. She doesn't get angry at him instead helps him up, and onto a couch in the main room.*
*She wraps a blanket around him, and sits on the opposite, couch arms folded.*
*Every once in awhile she shivers.*

----
*Jake nods.*
Jake: Our room.. Sound good?
*He walks with her into the main room, heading straight for their room.*

*Iris frowns at Rita*
Iris: Rita? Is everything okay?


*Gharn goes to the kennels and looks for a couple plump rabbits*

Oh. uhh, spider! There was a s-oh god-spider
*Stills hasn't stopped*

~

*Denny nods, and limps along*
*Curses her inability to do anything right*

*Horus's voice still sounds concerned through the door*
Horus: Are you sure ma'am?

*Rita (Before going to help Mason) frowns more, and looks at Izriels door.*
Rita to Izriel: Okay.. well I'm sure you can handle a spider.. If not yell for me.. *Leaves, and helps Mason.*
*Tries to stop shivering on couch.*
Rita to Iris: Yeah.. I'm fine.. don't worry about me.

----
*Jake opens the door to their room, and helps Denny into bed. He then lays opposite of her.*
Jake: You okay?
*He grabs her hand, and gives it a light squeeze.*

I am s-H-Holy H-aaaahh...Heavens...I am sure...You can l-leave...
*Shudders and makes splashes go everywhere*

~

*Denny shrugs*
D: I guess.
*Sighs, and doesn't return the squeeze*

*Horus still seems concerned by the noises then nods*
Horus: Alright...
*Goes back to his shower*


*Iris frowns and leans forwards*
Iris: Are you sure? You're trembling.


*Gharn walks out into the main room with blood all over his mouth and part of a rabbit ear poking out out of his mouth

*Rita nods.*
Rita: Just cold... don't worry about it.. I'm fine.
*Holds Rt's Ai core on her lap.*

----
*Jake look of concern worsens.*
Jake: Denny.. I know what you went through.. was a lot. I can't imagine being tortured with seeing you.. die.
*Squeezes her hand, and moves some of her bangs from her eye.*
Jake: What's on your mind, let's talk about it... together.

*the drinking contest in the living room is still going strong*

*shakes head*
Not off the top of my head. But I can help you look.

*Santiago nods and kisses the top of Joalia's head*
S: (Sounds like a plan.)

*Humming some old song that no mortal should know*
Hmm... hello, Rita. You were on the expedition to rescue me, yes?

*Eventually gets out, and fails to walk cause shaky knees*
*Gasps, puts up veil, and starts slowly putts on armour*
*Giggles quietly, and floats out of the shower, not bothering to dry self properly*
*Doesn't mind the clingy skirt*

~

*Denny sighs, and turns over*
D: It's a nightmare. It's the same thing that I saw in the...Horror place...I don't have to be asleep to see it either...

~

*Maiev nods, and leads Kara out to the main room*
M: Oi, anybody know any place I can get a person to kill?

~

*Joalia smiles and follows along, doing decor stuff*

*Gharn sits down next to Rita, still chewing on rabbit*
Gharn: Hello. How was your shower?


*Horus wraps up and starts drying off*


*Iris waves to Gharn*


*Billy sits, still waiting on Jordan for something*

*I glance up from the contest*
Try one of the sets of ruins to the North, we've gotten reports of bandits appropriating the ruins as their base of operations

*looks at Maiev*
Well, we have our answer. Bandit hunting. Should be simple enough.

*Santiago helps Joalia with decorations*
S: (So, do you have any ideas for what to do with Verdai?)

*Rita nods to Verdia.*
Rita: Yes I was.. good to see you back.
*Rita shrugs to Gharn.*
Rita: It was nice, how was your bath?

----
*Jake hugs Denny's back, his look of concern deepens even further.*
Jake: Does... seeing me cause you pain? Seeing me causing.. the nightmares to come back to your thoughts?
*He seems absolutely distraught.*
Jake: I.. I can leave if you want? I just.. want to help you.

I apologize if you got hurt on the expedition. My weakness got three good men killed. They wouldn't have had to enter that area if I had greater mental fortitude.
*Looks at WK and the Space Wolf drinking*
Er, do you need someone to clean up those cups? I have a couple spare drones...

*Gharn smiles, showing sharp teeth slowly turning more human-like*
Gharn: Good, very good. I've not had a warm bath... ever really.
*Looks loads better, but still has severe bruising around his broken ribs and arm.*

*I nod to Verdai*
That would be appreciated, we're nearly done here.
*the contest continues for a few more minutes before a draw is declared, due to running out of ale*

OOC:
That's me for the night. See ya tomorrow guys and girls

*Eventually floats out of the shower block, floats to the couches, and floats over to the couches*
*Lies down on Rita and Gharn, and giggles*
*Waggles index finger under Rita's nose*
I have the power.

~

*Maiev shrugs, nods, and gets walking*
M: This should be easy.

~

*Joalia shrugs and sighs*
Joal: (I have not thought of that yet...)

~

*Jordan stops thinking*
J: One spark on this could detonate this. It would make for very good fireworks.

*Billy grins*
Billy: Really... How far you think you could chuck this thing?


*Gharn raises his eyebrows*
Gharn: What? You seem to be in a good mood.


*Iris sits back, crosses her legs and flips on the TV which coincidentally plays He-man*

*Rita nods to Verdai
Rita: It's alright... same gak happened to me.
*Smells Izriel's finger, and frowns.*
Rita: What are you talking about?
