Snacks and Chats before Lunch- Redwall log

Gorvenalus is sitting in the great Hall with some mint tea and some scones, a small little before lunch snack it seems.
   
Krisha enters after spending a little time with a class, she has tried to get back into doing her couple classes.
   
Velm grins" Tea and scones old chap, looks good. I do say rather cold out today, then is winter suppose."
       
Dochas has been behaving moderately well. She's gotten into some arguments with other Dibbuns, but they were stopped before they escalated into fights. Today, however, the squirrel has been unusually hungry (she's probably about to hit a growth spurt), and so she escaped from class to try and get herself a snack. Right now she's hiding under the beaver's chair, and veeeeerrrryy sneakily tries to steal one of his scones when she thinks no one is looking.
   
Gorvenalus is busy updating the journals or least trying to.He glances at Krisha and smiles "You doing ok today Krisha?" He chuckles at Velm   

Krisha notices movement but doesn't seem too worried about it. She has been doing a lot of thinking today and yawns a little.She plans to let the dibuns have some fun in the snow little later today, like right before dinner most likely.   

Velm sits and grabs a couple scones and grins" We need more, and some tea..maybe tarts and something else "   
Dochas has managed to steal a scone! Grinning, she silently eats it, perking up at the hare's declaration about getting even MORE food. He's quickly become one of her favourite adults. She admires his ability and willingness to steal food from the kitchens, and he's just fun to be around. She stays underneath the chair, listening to what the adults have to say in regards to food. She also is trying to figure out how to steal something to drink, but that seems much harder...   

Gorvenalus shakes his head at the hare"You hares like your food that's for sure."He gets up "I can see if I can get something"Though it's unclear if he will get that much or not.   

Krisha clears her throat"Someone is under the chair..I think"She is uncertain but she knows dibbuns are sneaky.She leans back in her chair"A few things be good, I..did miss breakfast...sleep in"

Velm blinks, " Food is important. " He hmmphs and nods to Krisha, " Get the lass something two, yes jolly snack its a couple hours till lunch  ya know ."   

Dochas had just reached for the last scone when the badger just had to point out her presence. The squirrel freezes, her paw hovering over the pastry. After a few seconds, she snags it and huddles under the chair, trying her hardest to not be noticed. The DABer is hardly daring to breathe, she's so still.   

Gorvenalus enters the room with a tray of fresh scones, mugs of tea, some cherry tarts as well. He gives Krisha some soup and roll, and looks at his chair.He chuckles "If someone else would like to join us,they can..there is enough for all"   

Velm frowns, he decides to slip into the kitchens and soon, after a slight argument, is returning with a couple pies, one for the others to share and one of his wpn, some rolls, an extra scone,a mug of ale and he found a few cookies." Now we can say we are good chap."
   
Krisha will eat her soup, roll and finish her tea and ends up falling asleep in her chair for a bit of a nap before some afternoon time outside with the dibbuns.She might eat lunch or least a snack.   

Dochas hurriedly eats her purloined scone, then slides out from under the chair with her bag of treasures. Around her waist as a belt is tied an adult-sized sling that has some fancy dye work on the thong. She's using it as a belt, instead of the real belt she has. The Dibbun loops the strings of her bag over her shoulder. "I'm hungry, but I'm s'possed to be in class, so I skipped. Can /I/ have some pie, Mister Velm??" She gives him her most pathetic look.   

Gorvenalus smiles, he glances at Krisha as she falls asleep and gets up to place a blanket on her before sitting back down.   
Velm smiles.``likely boring class and one can not learn on an empty tummy of course have pie and other snacks you poor lass." He too looks over at Krisha and lets her sleep." A nap on de job huh...I can let it slip for now, she likely needs a nap"   
"Yay!" Dochas sits on the floor and enjoys her pie and other foods, secretly pleased that she kind of has the hare wrapped around her paw. "You're the best ever, Mister Velm!!" She glances over at the badger, then returns to her food. "Muvver Krisha is sad. She misses baby Ozzie and Xander. She needs her naps," the squirrel says philosophically.   

Velm nods, " Yes, we all can cheer the lass up though and Oz will be found. I will keep an eye out when I head back to Salamanstron"   

Gorvenalus shakes his head at the hare as he sips some tea and gets a little pie for himself. " The mountain must do well on food with all the hares there."   

Dochas nods. "Aye, we can! An' I'll help find Ozzie, too, if he ain't back when I'm big. I'm learnin' t'be a Warrior!!" She eats her food and tries to get more. "Haresies jus' unnerstand how 'mportant food is, Brother Gorvie. Tha's why Mister Velm is the best!"   

Velm grins, " As for helping find Oz...well we will need clues, right now bally well none."   

Gorvenalus sighs " We help Krihsa have hope, its the best we can do right now."   
Dochas tilts her head to one side and keeps eating, looking back and forth between the adults. "My name means Hope, an' I'm tryin' to help Muvver Krisha. But 'tis hard when I jus' wanna go find Ozzie and bring him back."   

Velm has yet to know the dibbun's name." It does?" He then frowns, he eats all the pie he has, he then drinks some ale" That is nice and whether Oz is, maybe he will jolly well give those vaermin a  swift kick or something."   

Gorvenalus smiles a little" It is safer here, we know he lives so that is good. I believe if the wildcat wanted him dead he would have been found that way the day Xander was found."   

Dochas scowls. "I think that shtoopid wildcat or whoever is gonna make Ozzie a slave. We already went through that, I don't want him goin' through that again!" She angrily stabs at her pie with her spoon.   

Gorvenalus frowns, " I..know how slavery is. I was kept underground in a small cell...8 long seasons. I was...tricked, me and my son..my home destoyed almost completely.Luckly my former home is rebuilt and I escaped my slavery thanks to friends I made at the abbey,and now I see this as my home."
   
Dochas looks up at the beaver, wide-eyed. "YOU were a slave, Brother Gorvie? How'd you get away? Did Dora and Matilda help you like they helped us Dibbuns?"   

Gorvenalus offers a smile." Matilda was not around yet, she came later on...the Mossflower Defenders helped and some others but yes I was a slave..made to follow a beast once called friend. The villian even had Benar a short while,not too long but it made me know I had to escape before the same fate happen here that happen in willowbark"
   
Dochas thinks for a minute. "So
maybe I can help keep the bad beasts from coming in here, too." She leaps up. "I'm gonna go back to class. DoraWose says all Warriors must learn everything they can to help them be wise. See ya later!!" And she dashes off and slips back into class unnoticed.   

Gorvenalus waves and decides it's nap time for him.
