[Thruaill]
There is a pause.
Blinking.

...

You're... divine now?

Din nods a little "yeah...I'm a lesser Demi goddess...."

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
... Um... okay... what's that like?

[iElf]

[Thruaill]
... Um... okay... what's that like?

Din shrugs "...it's like being mortal...well...apart from the power...cut me, and I'll still bleed, but it won#t take very long until it heals it's self "

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
Huh...

Well, either way, I'm glad I got you out of that creepy bug cult temple...

[iElf]

[Thruaill]
Huh...

Well, either way, I'm glad I got you out of that creepy bug cult temple...

Din smiles "so am I...I was scared...and I was overwhelmed to see you"

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
No problem.
She smiles, patting Din's back.

[iElf]

[Thruaill]
No problem.
She smiles, patting Din's back.

Din hugs her "...I ...think I love you..."

[Beans]

[Thruaill]

The undead psion blinks.
Hold on, hold on, what?

Din, you're married... you've got a kid...

[iElf]

[Thruaill]

The undead psion blinks.
Hold on, hold on, what?

Din, you're married... you've got a kid...

Din stares down "...it's not a happy marriage. I was basically forced into it..."

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
... That's awful, I'm sorry, but I'm standing my ground.

I'll be your friend, a shoulder to cry on, someone to make sure you don't hurt yourself when you drink, somebody to save your ass when you need it... but...

And... if your mother-in-law found out, well...

[iElf]

Din sighs "...I don't care if she find out. she's an oppressive bitch...can't even take care of her own daughter. she's not even related to Amanda, who's own mother never cared for her!it's not my fault Amanda immediately feel in love with me...I was an Angelican priestess at the time, and she was a virgin...We NEVER even really married. no ceremony nothing. and how was I to know two gals could have a child?"

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
...
Look, I have to think about this, okay?
Random declarations of love take time to consider...
She sighs.

[iElf]

She sighs.

Din sighs, "can I still snuggle up to you?"

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
She sighs.
... If you don't get handsy.

[iElf]

[Thruaill]
She sighs.
... If you don't get handsy.

Din nods "ok. anywhere you need to go today?"

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
I'm going to the postmortician for a preservative treatment... trust me, you do not wanna come.

[iElf]

[Thruaill]

Din nods "ok then. I'll come to inside with you, and go drinking in the black dragon#s den"

[Beans]

Can you lay off the booze for at least a little while? Jeez...

[iElf]

Can you lay off the booze for at least a little while? Jeez...

Din sighs "it's not as if it affects me as much any more. And I've been drinking almost every day since...well..."

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
... Couldja stay home, just this once?

I've still got booze, back from when I thought it'd make me feel human again...

[iElf]

[Thruaill]

Din grins "I won't lie to you...I'm looking for the drow who killed me"

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
In that case, could you leave the drinking until you get back here?
Y'know, so you don't get your ass handed to you on a plate with fries and a steak knife?

[iElf]

din frowns "...I'm a goddess now...I can take care of myself"

[Beans]

[Thruaill]
... Oy.

Well, I'm heading out. Come or... y'know, whatever...

[iElf]

[Thruaill]
... Oy.

Well, I'm heading out. Come or... y'know, whatever...

din nods, gets dressed and follows

[happyturtle]

Jack's Tower

Xifra is abruptly flung out of nowhere into the living area, her lower legs covered with sewage, and bite marks from a massive monster on her shield and back.

[Murkus]

Jack's Tower

"Mistress Xifra?"

Oh, hey. There's SBX, tuning the 'broken' radio in the corner. The robot studies her, studies her appearance, sounds alarmed.

"Xifra! You're injured! And you... stink!"

Of course, other than making these observations, he takes no immediate action.

[happyturtle]

Jack's Tower

"Yes. Could you bring me some clean water?" Xifra says, once she regains her breath.

[Murkus]

Tower

"Right away!" SBX says, smiling his tin smile. The robot tromps into the nearest room and the sound of pouring water can be heard. It's the doorway Xifra will remember as the one that led into that Hotel.

"Here."

Jack is... probably still in his study, by the looks of it.

[happyturtle]

Tower

Xifra, wincing in pain, turns her shield over to use as a scrying pool again. She wants to see what becomes of the battle in the sewers, and pours a bit of water into the shield. Her wounds cry out for attention, and she wants to get out of her filthy clothes, but her recent lessons allow her to block off that part of her mind for now, and call up the magic she needs to create the spell.
