[The Red Diamond Tavern] Just relaxing..he hopes (100% open)

[Cilion]

He raises a brow to Hadrian. "You're going to enchant the antler..?...What's that gonna do..? Protect it from spontaneous combustion...?" He chuckles at his own joke. "But you can have some for whatever you want with them, sure, and thanks for the offer." Now he turns to the girl, listening, rather confused, as he sizes her up and down. "Pull the sled..?...What do you mean by that, you actually pull a sled..? And what do you mean by big thing in the forest..?"

It takes him awhile, but his eyes light up a bright purple "Wait..Are you Kelvic..?" He raises an inquisitive brow, wondering why it took him so long. If that's right, that seemed pretty obvious...i must be a bit of an idiot..huh.?

[Minosayaa]

"No, Mino is Zyphirian, but because she can be human too they say Kelvic. Mino pulls sleds for the Frostfawns! Or the medics if they need her." She said in a bouncy manner.

Suddenly she leaned forward in the young man's face, she sniffed him. "Are you from Frostfawn? You smell like one. I should know, my master was one....But, he died." She pointed to her chest, "In his lungs, he got bad stuff in them, water or something. Like a really bad cold or flu.... I miss him." Mino was simple minded she couldn't remember the name....It started with a P, but it sounded like an N... Mino just couldn't remember no matter how hard she tried.

"Can I see the antlers you were drawing on?" Minosaaya asked timidly. She shifted in her seat. Hunting was something she missed a lot. She pulled her legs under her dress. Mino watched the boy curiously, " What's your name?"

[Cilion]

"Well that's good, that you get to help people.." He blushes and moves his head away when she sniffs him. His eyes become purely pink. "Yeah, i'm from Frostfawn...Well kinda...I don't know about my parents.. But my caretaker.. was.. a Frostfawn..So i think that makes me one.." He shrugs, his mannerisms slowing, and his posture hunching lightly. His eyes turning a soft brown, a sad brown at that.

"Was it pneumonia? I heard that can kill people easilly." Also heard it was hard for us to get 'cause of our mark from Morwen..Poor bastard was unlucky.. He shrugs. "don't know much of anything about it though, sorry.."

He pulls out the antler pieces at her request. "Sure." Cil hands them to her one by one so she can inspect them.."I'm Cil.. Err, Cilion, they just started calling me Cil awhile back and it stuck.." He shrugs again. I wonder as to my birth name.. "You said your name was..Mino..? Interesting name, did your..Friend name you or your mother..?"

[Hadrian]

Hadrian, who had apparently gotten lost in thought, came to only to find that the conversation had moved on. After a moment or two of awkwardness, he sneaked out. Exit Hadrian, stage right. OOCSorry about that, folks. In the middle of a super busy period and have also been out of town. I'm just taking Hadrian out so he doesn't gum up your works. Thanks!

[Minosayaa]

Mino held the antlers, squinting at the drawings on the antlers, she ran a finger over the carvings. "My momma named me Emivl, she' works for Miss Morwen. I've had lots of names. I guess humans find that weird, you guys just get one name."

Mino thought for a moment, "Yeah, that makes you frostfawn! She handed the antlers back, "Cilion... Cil-i-on..Hmmmm....." She pondered the name for some time. "I like it!" Mino exclaimed loud enough that some people turned to look at her. She responded by waving to the stairing people. "So do you drive a sled team? Or do you tend the animals? Who's your caretaker?" Mino was brimming with questions, "Wait, if someone takes care of you doesn't that make the your mother or father? Even if blood isn't involved, they still love you like a parent right?"

[Cilion]

He shrugs "'tis not wierd. I have two names..as to my first i don't know it though." he shrugs, his eyes remaining turning purple at her bounciness. The mention of him being frostfawn helped..He likes approval and was never sure. Guess it's just one of those things...

He answers her questions in order happily "No i don't have a sled team, i love tending animals..You'll have to meet the three that live with me. There's Sentai, a wolf dog..but he's never been harnessed to a sled before. Chera, a beautifully coated fox, and Vixel, a little devil of a Ferret i love to death."

When she gets to the question about his caretaker he sighs, not answering as she continues on. His eyes turn a depressed brown. His posture hunches as he draws in on himself lightly. Don't you dare petching cry, you're of age Cil. You can't cry everytime he's mentioned... "No it doesn't make them mom or dad, but it made him closer to me then my own mom and dad."

He sighs again, eyeing Mino thoughtfully.."Can we change the subject..?...Like..Which name do you like best..? Or your mother..?" He's almost pleading..

[Minosayaa]

Mino began to nibble on her finger tips, "I dunno, names come and go. I don't really remember half of my names. I am who I am, no matter what I am called." Mino eyed the half drank cup Hadrian had left, steam wafted up from it. She was thinking of what to talk about. Even with her lack of common sense she could tell his caretaker was a sore subject. Glancing around the pub Mino knew almost everyone. The smell of roasting meat was a comforting smell, it gave her some confidence. "So, I guessing you were traveling and just made your way home. I know know almost everyone in here." She began to point out various people and what they did for a living.

"So know that you're back what do you plan on doing? Have you gotten a room back at the holds? If not I can help you get a cozy one. I've lived there for three years... Most of my life really. Does that make me a Frostfawn too?" Mino giggled, "I don't consider myself one, I'm just a sled dog they own."

[Cilion]

He nodded to her ideas of names "I guess so.. But names are indeed helpful.." He sighed thoughfully. I wish he hadn't been brought up.. "no..I've always lived here, I uhh..Well i keep to myself.." His eyes went from brown to a light pink as he sighed. "Just me, Chera, Sentai and Vixel, we normally stay home, or stay in the forest though."

Cil looks around, wondering where they are. "But as for my plans, i have no clue, i can't leave without seeing our goddess come back..But after that..I may head south.. I don't know.." He eyed her thoughtfully at her question. "I'd say that makes you a Frostfawn, I don't like the term own..Especially not with a Kelvic as yourself, so i'd say it's your job, and you're part of Frostfawn, a necessary one too."

At that time, Sen leaves to go greet people, alot of them knowing him and giving him table scraps, Vix by now asleep. Cil whistled, calling him back. "Sen..You know we're not beggars, we earn our food through our hunting and you just ate." Sen came back, laying his head in Mino's lap. Wanting some scritches and pets. Cil chuckles lightly, his eyes going more purple than pink. "Cil you needy boy.." He sighed, going back to a relaxed state.

[Minosayaa]

Mino stared into Sen's eyes, it was silent for awhile as the odd staring match went on. It ended with Mino's laughter,"Is that so?.......Really?!?..........That makes sense.....Yeah?......Awww!..." She was taking to herself- no she was talking to Sen. She looked away and smiled at Cil, "Sen says nothing but good things about you. Such flattery!"She laughed some more. "Animals always seem to pick me out more that humans."

"I think...I could teach Sen to pull. No, I know so." She quickly turned to Cil, "Wanna see something cool?!" Mino bounded off into the restroom humming all the way.

An odd noise came from the restroom area, followed by a large dog exiting and sitting down by Cil. The large dog let out a yodle-like howl. As a human, Mino was small and childlike. But as a sled dog she was large and durable, which may have been the reason Mino prefered this form.

[Cilion]

Cilion grinned lightly, a chuckle touching his lips. "Teach him to pull..Maybe..But he's got a job..He's my hunting partner." His eyes by now were fully bright purple. "Sure..What're you showing me..?" She just left and he shrugged to Sen, telling him not to follow her to the bathroom.What the heck is that noise..?

When she emerged, it only took a moment for him to realize it's Mino. "Mino..?...You have beautiful coat.. did you know..?" He smiled to her lightly. "I can see you must be great at pulling the sled, you look strong..And well fed." Kelvic's really are lucky it seems.. He grinned at her. Scritching behind her ears when she approaches him. "Well groomed too..? Or is it because the change..?"

He shrugged lightly "either way..Sen likes you, as does Vix, and if you win Chera over you're practically our family in an instant. No really..That's how it works." People don't understand..That's it..Nothing more.. He chuckled lightly. "You'll meet her soon i believe."
