Safe Haven (See Description)

[Deleted]

Séanait smiled broadly when Kail told her about his having brought her kit with him. Seeing Serenity there and wanting to keep the redhead on her toes, Séanait walked up to Kail and planted a swift, hard kiss on his lips. She'd probably have done it anyway if he'd been a bit older and more rugged, and she could help but smile to herself as she thought about Serenity's reaction. They rubbed each other in the wrong direction and Séanait wasn't a real "live and let die" sort of person.

"Thanks Kail!" She said enthusiastically as she broke off the kit and, with a lingering hand on the side of his neck, turned and started to go through her equipment. Her shield was obviously missing, but Kail had offered his, so that didn't matter. He'd brought her mail, helmet, spear, bow and arrows, though, and that was better than she could have hoped for. Now she felt a bit safer.

She looked up sharply when Rivers mentioned that he intended to save Claire. Séanait's wolfish smile slowly spread across her face as she donned her arms and armour, listening with half an ear as everyone introduced themselves. She had just finished rebuckling her sword belt when it was her turn.

"Séanait Nic Ádhamhnán, formerly a Fiftigealdor of the Red Thusend. I'm a bloody good shot with my bow and a professional soldier by trade. Spear and shield, sword and shield or spear by itself, I can hold my own."

[Rivers]

Rivers lets out a laugh as Seanait gives Kail a pretty long kiss, he figured she was trying to goad Serenity a bit, but maybe Kail was her type, how was he to know? "Well well, popular with the ladies, aren't you Mr. Lancaster, I am jealous." He grins before returning to the task at hand.

As introductions finish up Rivers closes his eyes and thinks through what he had heard. "We've also got a healer, and possibly some kinda chef with additional capabilities, not sure about that one. Looks like Tres isn't around here, but there is another who will probably help, I believe she's a competent fighter, though as with most of you I have not seen her capabilities."

Rivers thinks through his options and what he knew of the execution then turned to Kail again. "Hey Kail, I've got about one keg of a gun powder equivelent, think you could rig up some fuses that would cause several containers of the stuff to go off in 1 to 3 second intervals?" He asks curiously, he could probably figure it out, but the boy seemed to have a talent for artificing.

"We'll need to send a group down to actually get Claire, it sounds like it'd be best for that to my Seanait, Roxanne, myself and potentially one of the others." He says, then Serenity, and Kail can run support. We'll keep the healer here to patch up whoever gets back.

"Now, before I go any further, does anyone not want to participate. I will understand, and no one is obligated to do something that may get them killed."

Kail had to blush heavily when Shy had desided to thank him in a big way. As she gave him a very forceful kiss and he was dumb founded for a few seconds. Then shook his head and came back to reality. "Er your welcome Shy" he said and took his shield and took out Sting from his compartment. Then he set it back down and then heard the firery red head give her introduction to this. After that it was Rivers again speaking on the mission at hand. He then asked if he could do something about fuses this just raised an eyebrow from him. Kail liked to tinker with machines, he had no idea on making bombs. But he did know a few things on fireworks though. "Uh......I'll see what I can do? Not my thing but I will do my best" he said and goes into one of his bags and gets two orbs and places gems on both of them. A network of lines could be seen as one was glowing yellow the other was glowing a dark purple. "Is there a work table I can use" he asked and was going to get to work.

[Serenity Caine]

Serenity's mouth fell open and her eyes widened considerably. No words came out of her mouth, and she just watched in silence and fury as the other red head kissed Kail. It was true that she had no real claim on him, but regardless, how informal! And there was no way Kail could possibly be enjoying it! Could he...? A small croak of a sound came from her throat as she tried to speak, and she slammed her mouth shut with an audible sigh of frustration. Now was not the time for a big scene, she had to repeat that in her head over and over again, or should would pounce on that woman. She cleared her throat, and turned to focus on what Rivers said, glancing at Kail every few moments, and glaring at Shy even more. She had never gotten along well with the woman, and she was absolutely certain that she had done that on purpose.

Kail seemed almost unfazed, stunned at the most, and it was really bothering her. Did he like her? Did he even know what Serenity felt? And even if he did, what did it matter? She was not the focus here, and she had to stop obsessing.

If there is any service I can lend, let me know. I am happy to help. Her words were tight, but genuine, and she looked Rivers hard in the eyes, just wanting to leave the room at this point.

The loft is nothing like her accommodations in the Mary. It’s true that she’s stayed in worse, but she liked to think that she had gotten past that point in her life. Now, she could stay in nice places that weren’t full of spiders. There was no real place to put her things, let alone organize them. She flips through some of the correspondences with her father. Hopefully, he was continuing to do well. Maybe it would be best to distract herself by talking to the others. It did seem like a lot was happening downstairs.

When she finally goes downstairs, it seems like something must have happened. The red haired girl certainly seemed upset. “Is there anything I can do? What are you guys doing exactly?” she asks. “Sorry, I’m getting ahead of myself. I am Thalia Anwen, and it’s a pleasure to make your acquaintances,” she says to the group as a whole. She feels somewhat like an intruder here, only really knowing Rivers.

[Roxanne]

Roxanne raised an eyebrow at Séanait's behavior. She didn't know the woman well enough to determine if this was normal, but by the reactions from Rivers and particularly the other red head, she'd guess not. She wondered if the two women were fighting over Killian and thought perhaps it would best to stay out of the way. That in mind, she moved to go stand beside Rivers, out of the way, and continued to listen as the plans were formed. The half demon couldn't manage to keep the grin off her face as talk of explosives was brought up. This was going to be a fun rescue indeed.

At Killian's inquiry of a work table, she looked around. There was the main table here in the house, but it was covered in Aria's things. "I'd suggest that table, but moving Aria's stuff might not be a good idea. Maybe we could build a makeshift table from some of the leftover wood around here?" she asked. Then looked up as they were joined by yet another woman from the loft. This group had a lot of women and not a lot of men, which didn't much suit her tastes. She could only hope this wasn't indicative of this Nova in general.

Roxanne nodded as the new arrival introduced herself. "Roxanne," she answered, smiling politely, "We're apparently planning a serious rescue for one of Aria's friends, and I'm in by the way. Just tell me what you need me to do." she finished seriously.

The gorge hound anthro knocks on the door. His black ears are folded back on his head and his tail hangs low, signifying his anxiety. Otsoa could smell a decent number of people around the cabin. However, it seemed awfully small to accommodate so many people. He was hoping for less people. The presence of humans made him nervous after seeing the mobs form in the third district. More unpredictable than panicked animals.

As he waits, he looks down at his feet. Aria did tell him not to get the floor dirty. Were his feet excessively dirty? This wasn’t really something that he ever really concerned himself with before. He tries to wipe them on the grass, hoping that would be enough. At least the ground wasn’t wet, so he couldn’t track in mud.
