The Quest For The Black Treasure; RP thread Part Two

[Cornflower MM]

Arya jumped at the motion, her eyes flicking to Perry, but the movement was small and unnoticeable. She continued eating, her eyes now scanning the big room.

Throughout all this time, Kaijo had left the infirmary and gotten himself lost. Well not lost per se, he had a vague idea where he was going. When troubled both he and Misak had the tendency to seek higher ground, that was what he was doing now. He reached a set of stairs hidden away in a corner, they were wooden and not stone as all those bellow were, he presumed that they were the last in the building. The caracal mounted the stairs, limping up them to find himself in a spacious attic. "I'd recognize those footsteps anywhere, even when you are limping" Misak was lying on her back in the center of the room, eyes closed and hands folded underneath her head. Kaijo grinned mischievously "And I, likewise, would recognize your footsteps... if you got off your lazy *** and made them" Misak chuckled
"How cruel you must be" Kaijo sighed dramatically
"Alas such is love, it makes wrongdoers of us all"
"Actually the phrase is liars"
"Yes but I didn't lie, perhaps I should have done"
"It would have been more appropriate" there was silence for a while "How do you feel?" Kaijo sat down beside her
"Like I was mauled by a bear" he admitted
"In actual fact it was just a horde of primitives"
"Troglodytes"
"Indeed"
"Though we can consider ourselves no better if we hide away up here"
"How very true"
"You don't seem to be moving"
"Interesting, perhaps I am a troglodyte" The corner of Kaijo's mouth quirked up
"Yes but you're my troglodyte"
"Yes, and you are my sophisticate" Kaijo chuckled
"I'm not sure how I feel about belonging to a barbarian such as you"
"And I am not sure how I feel about belonging to a civilized beast like yourself"
"Interesting, it would seem we shouldn't be married"
"True, unless we're lying"
"My dear, would I lie to you?" She looked fondly at him
"Love makes liars of us all"

OOC: SO CUTE!

BIC: Perry had soon finished his breakfast, and thought about getting talking with some of the Abbey beasts. Maybe they could help him with his riddle.

[Cornflower MM]

Arya was picking at her food now, not really hungry any more. She sighed, thinking.

[rachel25]

Perry cleared his throat, then spoke to the mouse next to him, "Um, excuse me friend, what do you know how riddles?" Perry handed over the riddle, and the mouse examined it, then exclaimed rather loudly, "Hmmm, I don't know much about riddles. Why, is this the reason you came to our good Abbey."

[Cornflower MM]

OOC: Exceeded PM limit, by the way.

BIC: Arya came alert. "Riddles? I have one., too." She said, and started fishing in a pocket.

[rachel25]

OOC: Darn. Shouldn't have PMed hello to everyone.

BIC: Other Abbey beasts heard what the mouse said, and all started to ask to look at the riddle, and to see if they could help. Very quickly, Perry lost his riddle, and was being bombarded with answers, and suggestions.

[Cornflower MM]

OOC: IKR? Nice duck face, by the way.

BIC: Arya giggled at the face Perry was making, then got her riddle out of her pocket. "Perhapssomeofyouwouldliketohelpme?" She said very quickly, trying to attract some of their attention, and keep it away from Perry.

[rachel25]

Several abbeybeasts all grabbed for the paper at the same time, all ready to help. 

[Cornflower MM]

"Gah!" Arya squeaked, startled. She jumped, and in doing so, fell off the bench. "Ow." She muttered, siting up and shaking her head.

[rachel25]

"Are you alright?" Perry asked, offering a hand to help Arya up.

[Cornflower MM]

OOC: *Arya. Confusing, I know.

BIC: Arya blushed. "Yeah." She said as she grabbed Perry's wrist and stood up. Then she very timidly scooched the slate across the table to the Abbeydwellers, some of who, and been going around the table to help her.

Raxanna halted the march. There was the place in the riddle. The place that would lead her to the treasure and the rest of the map. "Stop here no fires and keep quiet till I return," She said. She then selected two vermin to accompany her.

[rachel25]

OOC:@Corny *silently screams* BRAIN CAN'T TAKE IT!!!!!

BIC: Perry, being the innocent, kind type, didn't notice some of the winks, and looks the Abbeydwellers were giving each other, and whispering, and pointing.
-----------------
Toka munched the food very quickly, then grabbed for more. He'd forgotten how hungry he was, and after his long time in a freezing cold cell, his appetite was enormous. 

[Faiyloe]

Arnath smiled. He was finally listening. Or at least seeing sense. his manners were not the best but she did not stop him. He wouldn't listen anyway.

Raxanna stood near the wall looking up at the massive structure. She had warned the two vermin that she had chosen to stay quiet and use stealth. If they slipped up their death would be on their heads. They circled the wall staying out of sight looking for a weakness. Anything that would give her and advantage.
