"Well, you certainly might know better than I," Garth mused. "And, I didn't laugh because I thought your name was funny. I just thought it, well. . . fit you." He smiled awkwardly.

Arya spluttered, her mind reeling. Coughing, she grabbed a handy glass of water and started chugging. When it was empty, she put it back. "If you're jerking my chain, and just saying that, then you will be in a heap of trouble." She growled. Then sighed. "Whether or not it suits me, I don't know what my mother was thinking. Arya Prettyeyes Brushtail? Sometimes I wonder if she'd been hitting the ale."

[The Skarzs]

"Okaaay, maybe it doesn't flow well, but. . . and I am NOT jerking your chain. I'm being serious when I say it fits you." He folded his arms and sat back. "Maybe your mother was more romantic when she 'hit the ale'; nevertheless, you can't very well change the name she gave you, and you can't stop me from liking it."

Arya rolled her eyes. "Okay. Change of topic now?" She quipped, folding her paws. This conversation was getting far too personal.

Garth wanted to cheer the squirrelmaid up. "I was taking a rest one day, when an old frog hops up to me, telling me not to eat the stars. I looked up at the sky: it was high noon, and there wasn't a star to be seen. I asked him, 'Well, why do you say that?'
'Because they're all gone! Someone's eaten them! They could at least be kind enough to eat them only two at a time.'
This gave me an idea." Garth grinned. "I proceeded to tell the frog that I ate stars by the hundreds. His eyes looked like they were going to pop out of his head. 'How many?!' he had screeched. 'Every night,' I told him, 'the sun bakes me thousands of stars, and I eat them all, by the THOUSANDS. She's so happy that I enjoy them, that she's been making me some every night. That's why there are no stars in the sky when the morning comes. Now, if you'll excuse me,' I told the shocked frog, 'I have to meet Sun over there by nightfall. Goodbye!'"

Arya laughed. "Nice story." She said. grinning.

Garth made a sad face. "Arya, I'm sorry, but I have something horrible to tell you."

Lumina came bustling back in, with a tray of nice food. "Well, make it quick." He snorted, setting the tray down on a nearby table. "Cus this is all gonna go cold." 

[Cornflower MM]

Arya was very puzzled, and frowned again. "What is your name?" She asked the old mouse hermit, wrinkling her brow, an old, old habit.

[The Skarzs]

OOC: What I was going to say was completely ruined. . .

[Cornflower MM]

OOC: Sorry?

[The Skarzs]

OOC:

Garth made a sad face. "Arya, I'm sorry, but I have something horrible to tell you."

I was going to continue this.

[rachel25]

OOC: *holds hands up* Sorry, I'll cut it if you want. (I already feel out of place)

[Cornflower MM]

OOC: That's okay. We've done it to each other quite a few times, eh, Rach?

[The Skarzs]

OOC: I'm going to edit my post; don't worry about it, Rach.

BIC: Garth introduced the two. "Arya, this is Lumian, the one who fixed up your leg. Lumian, this is Arya."
