So many peoples in Great Hall.... /or/ "Stop talking right now."
SCENE: Redwall Abbey's Great Hall
CHARACTERS: DoraRose, a female mouse. Krisha, a female badger. Henry, a male sparrow. Emyuil, a male mouse. Xander, a male badger.
LOG:
Krisha has not gone too far, basically the entry way to this room and sat in the chair to wait on someone, and ended up falling asleep in the large chair and is just now slowly waking up.
DoraRose comes into the room, carrying a basket of sheets that need mending. Sitting down by the fire, she sets the basket on the floor and pulls out a sewing kit and proceeds to thread the needle. She has yet to notice the badger in the chair over there.
Krisha watches the mouse closely. She has yet to really interact with any beasts at the abbey, well she was in the infirm but not by choice as she still has a bandage on her lower arm. She starts to get up and sits again with a frown and her paw brushes the mug of water she had beside her and it falls to the floor and breaks into a couple pieces, to which she goes to pick it up and look around where to toss the broken pieces.
DoraRose starts at the sound of breaking pottery and whips around to look at the perpetrator. Seeing the badger, the mouse relaxes and smiles. "Oh, hello. I don't believe I've ever seen you before. My name's DoraRose Strongheart." She sets down the threaded needle and the rest of the sewing kit and walks over to the maiden. "We can recycle that. Here; I'll take it to the Abbot later -- he's our potter, too. He'll know what to do with this." She smiles and goes to take the broken mug.
Krisha hands her the pottery and steps back a little and just nods, she frowns again but doesn't make a reply or share her name
DoraRose smiles. "Oh, are you mute? Well, that's alright; you don't have to be able to talk to be able to communicate." Walking back over to the sewing basket, she lays the pottery shards in it and digs out a slate and a slate pencil. "Can you read and write?" The Warrior asks as she crosses the Hall again, holding out the writing instruments. If that doesn't work, the mouse will try sign language.
Krisha smiles a little as she takes the writting materials and writes, so yeah she can hear as she writes down some words and shows them to the mousemaid = Name is Krisha. I am a visator to your home=
Hoppings in through the doorway comes a black throated sparrow humming a ditty. He hops across the room and jumps up onto the top rail of a chair near the two beasts. "Greetings!" Chirps he merrily.
DoraRose reads the note and holds out a paw. "It's nice to meet you, Krisha, and welcome. Have you been here long?" She looks at the sparrow and smiles. "Hi, Henry. Lovely day, isn't it? This is our visitor, Krisha."
Krisha gasps as she backs away from the bird and bumps into a chair almost knocking it over, she relaxes slightly seeing it's not the type of bird to get too worried about and takes a deep breath and lets out a soft sigh. She looks to the doorway as if looking for some beast before looking back to the two beasts in the room
The sparra, who indeed is Henry, stares at the badger maid in silence for a moment. The he starts to giggle like a baby. "Don't worry," he says after getting his laughter under control, "I only half as threatening as you be lead to believe." This statement is followed with not but laughter.
DoraRose looks sternly at the sparrow, then turns to the badgermaid and says reassuringly, "Don't worry, he won't harm you, and if he does, I'll deal with him myself." She flexes her left bicep, showing off her considerable muscles that are evident even through her dress sleeve. Winking at the other female, she adds, "You don't have to worry about being harmed while here in Redwall, honey. We'll do everything we can to keep you safe. Even from crazy birds." She turns to the Sparra again, her look softening some.
Krisha frowns writing again=he is not a raven at least=. She has not spoken a word since she been here. But she is also clearly unsure of being here too long, a look at the door again before she writes =Where is Xander?=
Emyuil walks into the area, observing from a distance rather than interrupting any conversation. He's seemed agitated lately, eager to be out roving the woods, but circumstances have prevented it.
"But how do you know I not be a raven in disguise?" asks the sparrow unhelpfully.
"Henry, please do me a favour and stop talking right now," Dora says with a glare that should eloquently communicate to him that he's making things worse. As her brother comes in, the Warrior waves at him. "Hey, Emmy, please talk to the Sparra." Reading the badger's note, the female mouse shrugs. "I don't know, I'm sorry. Did you see him earlier today?"
Krisha nods to the seen Xander earlier and just sits back in the chair she was in earlier and folds her paws in her lap, a glace at the door and then away from the doorway
Emyuil tilts his head. "...okay..." He turns to Henry, saying flatly, "Hello," and nothing more.
The black throated sparra turns towards the Emyuil and stares at him. "Greetings," he says.
DoraRose sighs. Well, her brother's smart, he'll figure out how to hang out with the bird without turning him into a pillow. Easy-peasy, right? Turning back to the badgermaid, she says, "I'm sorry I can't help you more...are you thirsty? I can get you some tea. I'm sure Xander will be back soon."
Krisha nods to the offer of tea, she is listening and every so often she will see where the beasts are standing
Oh, there's no doubt that Emyuil's smart, but his patience is...lacking. He rolls his eyes. "So..." He trails off, at a loss for how to make small talk, before settling on: "...how long have you been at the Abbey...?"
Xander walks in from the entry and looks tired, he has had a long day maybe as he had to check with the Defenders base and then the tavern and now he finally gets back to the abbey
"Five seasons," responds the sparrow quickly. There is a long silent pause before the sparrow looks over to the badger. He gives a salute with his wing, "Greetings Captain Winters, sir!"
DoraRose smiles and gets the badgermaid some tea. When she returns and hears the sparrows salutation, she points to the male badger. "Oh, there he is," she tells the maiden as she hands her her tea. Sidling over to her brother, she goes to give him a light kiss on the cheek. "Good job," she whispers to him, offering him a hug.
Krisha takes the tea and sips it, seeing Xander she sits a half full mug down and goes over to stand beside him giving him a soft smile.
Emyuil smiles gently at the kiss, accepting his sister's hug. "Thanks..." He offers her a quick squeeze in return.
Xander nods to Henry "Hey" Yep tired but his mood brightens when Krisha walks over and he smiles "Hello...Krisha, you doing ok?"
The black throated bard gives a wave of his wing to the mouse wife, "Farewell Dora, by on watch for crazy birds! I hear they are about lately!"
DoraRose raises an eyebrow. "Yeah, you would know, wouldn't you?" she asks with a twinkle in her eye. "...actually, I'm gonna go and do my mending out in the orchard," she turns to her brother. "Wanna come with?" She grabs the basket of sheets and heads out after she gets his answer.
Emyuil follows his sister quickly. It's a nice day; why waste it?
