Feint Whispers Chapter #5: The Excavation

[Mirth]

Tarowyn intercedes when he sees Whitney's distressed and confused face, taking the D'orite aside and whispering to his boisterous friend, "Jericho, you've picked quite a public stage to present your question. It seems more fitted to your outgoing demeanor than to our lady's more reserved nature. Perhaps you two should retire to a more private area so that you can discuss matters more freely... And I don't mean naked discussion, you randy goat. If you truly wish to win Whitney's heart, your path should start with her mind, not her legs."

It seems more fitted to your outgoing demeanor than to our lady's more reserved nature. Perhaps you two should retire to a more private area so that you can discuss matters more freely... And I don't mean naked discussion, you randy goat. If you truly wish to win Whitney's heart, your path should start with her mind, not her legs."

Jericho pauses thinking... his brow actually furrowing, "Hmmm... I had not thought of that, her introverted nature, may have been taken aback by my machismo. You speak wise words, perhaps a private chat, would be best, and I will focus on this mind you speak, of, and not on the legs, that I hold so dear, or other choice ample parts, of the lady wizard."

Jericho pats Tarowyn on the shoulder, "Excuse me elfy, I know my company will be missed, but perhaps this is for the best."

Jericho returns to the table, "Whitney a moment of your precious time," Jericho uses the noble training of his birth, and acts like a gentleman for once, a D'orite gentleman, but a gentleman nonetheless.

Jericho will lead Whitney outside, if she allows and speak with her, "It was brought to my attention that my words iun such a public place may have been out of place, please I mean no grievance, speak with me, what ius it that your heart and mind desire, it is just us now, Whitney."

"I.. I know little of marriage and what I have seen is not.. well to my liking. I see little need for it at this time.. and no offense Jericho, I .. well I have goals I wish to seek before I go on to the task of marriage and child rearing." looks at him calmly, a bit more certain. "I.. need to prove myself in ways I can't if I'm married. I hope you understand."

"I.. need to prove myself in ways I can't if I'm married. I hope you understand."

Jericho blinked, "Marriage?" he plays it off, with a look of shock, "you think I want to get married, why, that was just my way of saying, hey my place or yours. I mean you have been shuttered up so long, you could use a good roll in the hay," Jericho slaps her rump, shaking his head, "Ye can seek your goals, I won't stand ye way, I am just letting you know you got an admirer, for your charms. No need to take that to extremes, though."

Jericho shrugs, and makes his way back to the inn, "Now don't think this is the end of it, not by any means, Miss Delnoir, because once a D'orite decides what he wants, we don't rest till we get it."

Jericho opesn the door for her, and walks in after her.

Whitney flushes after the smacking of her rump but stays quiet while Jericho talks. "Okay.. just don't be so. pushy?"

Walks back inside as he holds the door for her. "And I like studying." she says defensively as she blushes and rejoins the rest of the party.
