Uulark Simental, Cleric6

Uulark does his best to look nonchalant and a bit bored, as if this sort of transformation happens every day.
 

Shaimon Hu'u, barbaric human druid

The bear that was Shai sits close to the caster without touching him, then glances back to Talashia. Whatever intelligence still resides in the beast apparently remembers that it was she who had questions for the man.
 

"No no no!" Talashia sputters as she hurries over. She pushes Dyspeer away and waves the others back.

"We're not threatening him. Is everything swords and teeth with you people?"

Talashia offers the man a hand up and says, "Please accept my apology. I didn't expect they'd do that. Just the same, we are investigating the ringleader of the fighting arena you just 'won' in. You're the only person we've met so far who's had dealings with him that might be inclined to share anything. Whatever you know about this man..." she makes a 'poofy' gesture near her head, "...with the plume, yes? If you would see fit to share, we could see fit to provide you with some funds to start your new life wherever it is you're going."
 


Shaimon Hu'u, barbaric human druid

Shai-as-bear cocks his head to one side as Talashia changes the tenor of the exchange. With a small grumble that sounds a bit like a verbal shrug, the bear raises himself onto his back legs and starts shaking himself as if to throw off water in his fur. Instead, the fur itself goes flying, though like his human shell before it, the fur evaporates as it arcs through the air. Underneath the fur is a once-again-human Shai.

Dyspeer, having been dismissed by Talashia, lopes over to the druid, licking at his hand and whimpering just a tad.

"Don't worry. You did right, Dys," Shai whispers to the wolf. "You ought to know by now Talashia's just a little rough with folk."
 

Uulark Simental, Cleric6

"Nice trick, Shai. I guess it would have been too much trouble for you to warn a poor bas**** before you did that for the first time around me?"

Shai flinches at the admonisment, and what's visible of his cheeks around his beard is clearly blushing.

"Sorry," he says sheepishly. "I didn't quite know I was doing it until it was already done, though that ain't an excuse, for sure."

Uulark claps the big ol' druid on the shoulder. "Aaahh, don't worry about it. I'm just miffed because I soiled myself....ALMOST!"
