[QUOTE="GlassEye, post: 5931679, member: 40413"] There is a croaking gulp from the nearby table where Loab sits and he looks suitable chastised. He smiles tentatively, more from nervousness than anything else it seems. Before he can do anything else the three grippli children tumble from their bench and cluster around Borric's feet chiming out in a ragged chorus, [color=yellow]"We'll do it! We'll do it!"[/color] Dorummn pulls the three away from Borric and herds them towards the kitchen. [color=orange]"Hush now, tadpoles. Your mother could use your help in the kitchen peeling Mustelidae eggs or some such, I'm sure."[/color] He shoots a stern look in his wayward son's direction as he shuffles the other three out of the common room. Loab slips from the chair he was sitting in and crosses over to stand in front of Borric. Borric towers three times the height of the grippli youth but Loab stands there, though not confidently as evidenced by a tremor at the corners of his mouth. He glances over towards his father; this is clearly something the older grippli expects. Words spill out from Loab in a rush, [color=yellow]"Master Hawkins, I know I've caused you a serious trouble and I'm sorry for it. Really, I am. I hope you can forgive me but I understand if you can't. Uhmm... to help prove I mean it I'll go talk to Qebir and explain. I'm sure he'll loosen up. Maybe. He's sweet on Rissa, you know, but she doesn't like him that way. I'll talk to Rissa, too, if you think it'll help..."[/color] Dorummn mercifully cuts in. [color=orange]"That's enough, Loab. Here's a bit of bacca leaf; Qebir favors it, you know. And a bottle of wine for Rissa. That should help smooth things over, Master Hawkins."[/color] He pushes a bottle and a small package into Loab's hands. Loab blinks a moment before realizing he can make his escape and, packages in hand, darts out of the inn. Dorummn gives the group his best innkeeper smile and motions towards the recently vacated table. [color=gold]"Seat yourselves! Dinner will be served soon and in the meantime how about a bottle of wine? I've a rare vintage, 'Eiswine', imported from the mountains south of here."[/color] Dorummn produces a bottle and several small glasses and pours for everyone. While Loab is gone Dorummn scurries back and forth between the common room and the kitchen bringing dishes to keep everyone busy in eating. Eventually, near the end of the meal, Loab returns with a hesitant smile. [color=yellow]"Qebir won't give you trouble.
