I'm sorry my lady, you have it wrong.. The soup was the first time.. and 'breaking in' is such a harsj way of puttinh it.. I prefer to think of it as 'dropping in for a visit' and making a mess? why, I was just.. reorganising it..

Charen burst into laughter. It was so good to see the two of them arguing again.

Alira's look was as cold as ice. If looks could kill, Gecko'd be dead now. "You know, I was just taught how to truth read unwilling minds by the High Lord. Shall I practice a little on you?"

*blood runs cold for a second as she stares at alira then quickly looks away. Sobers up fast and looks at the ground, no longer mucking about* No my lady. I.. *mumbles something and shifts her feet*

Lorlyn walked into the arena, having left earlier after gecko had sat down to relax. Lorlyn walks up to Gecko. "hello gecko. I've been thinking. I have some free time and I know you haven't been doing well in some of your classes so how about some tutoring. What do you prefer warrior or healing?"

*d'oh, it's her worst subjects.. Gecko tries to decide which she would mind doing least... Warrior may involve further being blasted onto her behind, but healing may involve eating Garbage Healers Potion Supreme...* *looks at lorlyn, shifting her feet* er.. um.. hooow about... *mumbles away, yay for the mumbling, there should be a competition!*

"Sorry, I couldn't quite catch that?"

*tries to glare at alira.. but it is hard to glare at intimidating people dammit* I said, I would like to *mumble mumble*

(I'm intimidating! :D Thank you so much, Gecko!) "Sorry? I still couldn't hear that. Lorlyn, did you understand what she said?"

(only when you threaten to truth read! and in real life I can out intimidate people mwahahaha.. just apparently not as a novice here..) *takes a deep breath* I said.. *nervous* I don't really feel like doing either.. right now.. my lady..

"Don't panic, Gecko. Alira doesn't bite ", Charen whispers and twinkles at Gecko.

*looks back at charon* you aren't the one she blasted onto her butt, and caught spilling soup in lorlyns office. ever had her yell at you?

"No, not yet" *grins*

"Charen? I think we should go on practicing. Do you feel better now?"

“Yes, my Lady.” Charen stands up and goes into the centre of the arena.
