Cori: *plods in, Weiss trotting at her side,drooling happily as he snuffles around, towing his dead-bunnies-clad human around by her leash*

Cori: *ruffle the mutt's ears gently, big brown eyes still cheerful, even now. but a touch on the wary side*

Ethan Demian Augustus: He's sprawled lazily over one of the benches at the edge of the park, catching his breath. New York would have pick his arrival to shut down the subway. Luminous gray eyes drink in the city, the people, everything. Despite a slight frown, he's still smiling as he gets to know this city, impatiently shaking his long ash blonde hair out of his eyes when the wind blows it in his way. His blue jeans are scuffed and torn in a few places, the airbrushed design of a rose wrapped around a cross faded. He's wearing a heavy golden brown corduroy coat and a dark green scarf. [Appearance 4]

Cori: *notespale-hair and offers him a nod and slight smile. Weiss has other ideas. a New Friend! one who might have Food! and determinedly plows toward him* Weissss.....come on, ya big lug,not really in the mood.....*sighs*

Cori: *waves her free hand at the guy a little desperately* incoming! watch out! he doan bite!

Ethan Demian Augustus: He doesn't encourage the dog, though he does smile as it drags the girl toward him. When/i it reaches him, he offers the dog a hand cautiously, palm up, to sniff. "Hi," he says to Cori. "I'm Ethan."

Cori: i'm Cori. *a wry grin* this's Weiss. *who is currently snuffling and spreading drool on the guy's hand* he's sure everyone he ain't met's his new best buddy. sorry. i think i got a napkin in m' pockets somewhere. *patting ehrself with her free hand. while Weiss batters her leg with his heavy tail* ouch, ya hairy dork! *laughs at her mutt. she can't help it* watch that thing, will ya?

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: He makes his way into the park, hands behind his back and a stern look on his angular, hawk-nosed face. His hair is a rich brown, hanging slightly wavy to his shoulders, and his deep brown eyes watch the scenes around him impassively. He's dressed in a simple green lace-up shirt and natural fiber pants with a pair of Doc Martins on his feet, and a simple silver pentacle around his neck. The cold doesn't seem to bother him...if he's as frozen as the weather, he doesn't seem to notice it. No cell phones, no technology...just a canvas backpack over one shoulder. He appears to be in his late thirties.

Ethan Demian Augustus: He laughs, not seeming to mind the dog snuffling at him, moving to pet it, rather than be sniffed. "Well, he must not be from around here then. What kind of puppy? And no bother, that's what jeans were invented for."

Arlett: ((Get distracted a sec and everyone flees))

Cori: *Weiss. does a little dance in place, great head turning toward Aconite. Cori'sfollows, almost nervously. a moment toponders, then she waves a bit* yo,dude, s'up?

Arlett: ((eyes... st..)) *well the kid was on, walking thorugh the park to the railing... been a while a little smile to her lips... as she looks around, picking afew stones here and there*

Arlett: Arlett seems to have grown… small difference, she still look pretty much like a young teenager… not really a young woman, but maybe just not longer a kid. She still looks pretty much like a doll, with so expressive green eyes, the shadows of flecks on her cheeks, her golden hair falling down below her shoulders, and air of innocence that her eyes don’t seem to share so much sometimes. But mostly are those faint curves, those faint hints that let you know what a beautiful woman she is starting to become. A Butterfly pendant hangs now from her neck, along with a silver bracelet on her wrist with an ‘A’ charm to it.

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: He heads down the Eisenhower Mall, heading in the direction of Castle Clinton. A momentary pause, before he looks over in Cori's direction, eyes searching her face before a moment's recognition. "Ahh. Good evening...Happy Solstice to you." Not a crack of a smile...that face remains totally impassive. "How are you?"

Cori: *chuckles to Ethan* he's a mutt. got mastiff, great dane, shephard, and i think rottie in him, pluys no clue what else. he's m'big boy. his lil bro's at home. 'Heart likes cold only when snow is actually falling. otherwise, he just gives out sad eyes. Weiss. nice man. shake hands! *points to Ethan. Weiss sits and holds up a wet, plate-sized paw, panting happily*

Ethan Demian Augustus: He looks over at the guy Cori waves to, then back to the dog, still petting with one hand.

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: ((You're lucky I didn't bring in who I was ~PLANNING~ to, Arlett. *EFG* Saving that for later.))

Cori: i'm all right. you? *smiles to Aco anyway. Weiss pounds the ground, hoping for morepetting. in a moment, he may well come give Aco a nice slobbery snuffle*

Ethan Demian Augustus: He chuckles, and takes the dog's paw to shake. "Pleasure to meet you Weiss." He rubs his hand dry on his jeans then buries back in the Weiss' fur.

Arlett -> Griffen "Aconite" Aston: ((oh... OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh?! now I am cuirous?! whom?!))

Arlett: *A yawn and she looks around lazily, titling her head, waving a hi to Cori, not knwoing any of the two she is with*

Cori: *Weiss huffs delightedly. and leeeeeeeans into the pets. Aco can wait--he's getting ~petted~ right now* heh. he's a total goofball, my big boy.

Griffen "Aconite" Aston -> Arlett: ((No, no. Ruins the surprise. Will make most players go "What the...?!??!" *G*))

Arlett -> Griffen "Aconite" Aston: DAMM why you tell me then!! I WANT knOW *whines*))

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Hi," he says to Griffen, warmly enough, leaving off scratching behind Weiss' ears just long enough to wave.

Cori: *notes the waving girlchild and waves back. does she, or doesn't she, know this chick. argh. she just mi-----hey. ok. yeah, she knows this one, now what's her name again....?*

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "I am well." He nods a little bit, turning to regard the animal-accompanied woman. "Enjoying the short break from my teaching." A glance goes to the approaching Arlett, as well as Ethan. Both gets brief nods of greeting.

Arlett: *giggles at Seeing Cori's face, starting her way dumping the stones she has gathered* hi *to everyone with her*

Cori: that's good. *grins to Aco* teaching's rough. sometimes.

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Hi." He smiles at Arlett.

Arlett: *smiles* Arlett *saving Cori the trouble and going to it*

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "Enjoyable enough, but some students are...difficult. As are university standards. They keep attempting to bring me 'out of the stone age,' as they put it." His expression doesn't change, though it's flavor does...perhaps a bit of scorn for the cliche.

Cori: *laughs softly, face suddenly aflame* um...i knew that. suuuuur i did. how ya doin', sugarpie? *grins to Arlett* you met Weiss yet?

Arlett: *blinks to Griffen, giggles, then looks to Cori* uh.. Weiss?

Cori: *wrinkles her nose* why ya think i like my current job? i make jewelery. i sell jewelery. ya wanna learn how ta set a stone...well...ya learn tha older ways before the new and more advanced stuff.

Arlett: *winking to Cori at the I knew that part* and I am fine, ya?

Ethan Demian Augustus: He points to the dog. "Weiss." And then, with another warm smile he leans over the dog to offer his hand to Arlett. "I'm Ethan."

Arlett: *and so eyes the dog, smiling brightly* oh cute! *blinking to the hand, taking it* nice to meet ya

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Uh-huh. Likewise."

Avery Woods: Passing through the park, the weather didn't appear to bother the woman, who looks to be in her mid- to late-20s. Maybe that's because she was dressed warmly, even if wearing what might look like dark blue coveralls over a flannel shirt (and hidden thermals), with a rag-tag looking mechanic's type jacket (dark blue). Her long brunette hair is pulled up in a ponytail, that falls out the back of her ballcap.She keeps her hands stuffed into her jacket pockets as she walks.

Arlett: *Smiles, nodding eyeing Griffen* ((I don't know if Arlett got to meet him))

Cori: *points to her dog* unless ya wanna risk drownin, doan let himkiss ya. he drools awful. but he's jus a big ole baby. yeah, you, ya big lug. *chuckles to her dog, eyes very tender*

Snow: ((*pouts* have fun playing while I make gifts*Snuggles all and poofs*))

Arlett: ((*hugz Snow* done with that!)) *she giggles to Cori* aren't all big dogs big babies? he is cute still!

Ethan Demian Augustus: He resumes petting Weiss and eases back against the bench, fiddling absently with the dog's ears as he listens to them talk.

Cori: *Weiss snuffles Arlett and attempts to slobber her hand. hey--she's putting her hand out--she must mean to pet him! right? he's a very large mutt, with a heavy tail, athick skull, and a wrinkled face with lots of drool being produced. a sort of brown-grey-black mixture, colorwise. pretty, he's not, but Cori seems to think he's just plain gorgegous*

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: ((No, I don't think she ever did, unless she was at Michelle's house during the big discussion where Rene got kicked out.)) He stands there, withdrawing a hand-rolled cigarette from a silvered case and putting it between his lips. The case vanshies into his pocket and he flicks a strike-anywhere match to life, sparking the smoke.

Arlett: *bblinks at the snout, and her hand gets slobbered she giggles even more* aawww

Arlett: ((nop. then she doesn't *S*))

Avery Woods: She notices the woman with the dog, and smiles a little, but keeping some distance from it too.

Cori: *nods earnestly* yeah, from what i've seen. *chuckles* this guy still hasn't figured out he's too big for m'lap anymore, though. and you wouldn't beleive how much he eats. but, wouldn't trade him for nothing.

Cori: ((mmrr....actually, wasn't Aconite present when Evan first figured out exactly what he was? *scratches head* soemobody was injured, Aconite fixed him/her....and Evan about freaked cuz of his Awareness? i'm almost certain Arlett was there, too, that night.))

Arlett: *smiles* well dogs are the best *smiles to Cori* sides... he just does it cause he loves ya *eyeing Griffing then Ethan and back to Cori*

Arlett: ((no... don't recall meeting him))

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: ((No, that was Michelle, Slinky, Sam, Arlett, and Evan.))

Cori: *chuckles* and i love him. and my 'Heart, too. even if it does mean they both insist on using me fer a mattress at night.

Arlett: Heart?

Avery Woods: The dog looked kinda cute, though couldn't tell what breed it was from here, so she moves a little closer to take a look, pushing the cap up a little so she could see better.

Cori: ((ah, ok. murgle....))

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: He glances over at Avery, eyes appraising her impassively for a moment. A brief nod, as he pulls the cigarette out of his mouth and exhales a drag, away from everyone.

Cori: 'Heart's small enough to fit in my backpack. he looks kinda like someone took a yaller lab, shrunk him down, and then stretched him out. no clue what his ancestry is. he's a total coward, though. *alughs* and i adore him.

Ethan Demian Augustus: He smiles at Avery, as peering at Weiss is almost looking at him, and waves to her too.

Arlett: oh...you left him home?

Arlett: *eyeing AVery, overing a wave of hand *

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "He is a beautiful animal," he says to Cori, very nearly cracking a faint smile. But not.

Cori: *the dog decides to flop against Ethan's legs heavily, panting with bliss. if only he had food, life would be perfectly perfect*

Avery Woods: She smiles back to Ethan since he waved, surprised a little being in such large city and someone being friendly to her. And a wave he gets in return.

Cori: *nods toArlett* he didn't wanna come with us. *shrugs* i expect he's cozied up to Bowser right now, or getting chased by one of the kittens. *beams at Aco* thank you. see, Weiss? you got a compliment! *the dog thuds his tail against the ground. not moving from the pettign zone*

Arlett: *bliks* you HAVE a zoo *smilling*

Ethan Demian Augustus: He tenses, a little suprized at suddenly having Weiss practically on top of him, smile vanishing for a second as his eyes widen. It's a good ten seconds or so before he resumes scratching behind Weiss' ears with a chuckle. "Hey buddy...you're heavy. Try warning me first huh?"

Avery Woods: That makes her laugh softly, watching Ethan and the dog.

Cori: *laughs* nah. Bowser and the kittens own my roomies, not me. *gives Ethan a rueful grin* sorry about that. ya want him off ya, just give hima shove and tell him to move.

Arlett: *blinks at the dog then ETha, winces* I think I prefer my mouset his far *smiles some*

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: He watches the group calmly for a moment, before looking to Cori. "How have things been with our social club? I must confess to having been out of the loop for some time...since we last saw each other, actually."

Cori: *chuckles to Arlett* he does sometimes have good manners. he just gets happy to meet people. he's defiantely a people-pooch. tha hairy dork. *another soft smile to her mutt*

Ethan Demian Augustus: "He's fine. He just surprised me is all." With Weiss so close he slowly picks his other hand up from where it's been resting at his side to pet Weiss too. "I don't mind. Haven't gotten to play with a dog like this for years."

Arlett: *nods to cori, then giggles* yea but mice weight less the dogs *winks, peers to Griffen uh.. social club? then eyes Ethan and the dog* they are to take a picture

Cori: mmm...*eyes Aco* well....some of our members quit. not a chance they'll come back, either. ya ought ta come by, sit down for a nice long chat sometime real soon.

Avery Woods: She still keeps some distance watching, not wanting to really intrude either, but seeming to enjoy watching the dog.

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "Quit?" A brow raises. "Interesting. I will most certainly have to come by, though I have yet to learn where the clubhouse is."

Arlett: *ok now paying more atentiong to Griffen and Cori talk*

Cori: *chuckles softly* if you feel up to it, i have a b-a-l-l you can throw for him. and he likes ya bunches. *grins to Arlett* but, mice're small enough that ya gotta be careful about rolling over or else you could squish 'em. major bad idea, that!

Arlett: oh no... I build E*eyes Ethan* mine a little ball he can run around in.. is hard enough to keep him safe and he loves running and running and best... is shines and tinkles so I know where he is

Cori: *nods to Aco* i'll ask the president of our branch of the club for a guest pass, if that's cool? you got a number or what i can get up with you at? i got one in trade. *laughs softly*

Ethan Demian Augustus: He smiles, then frowns. "Maybe another time. I'm not quite up to collisions with dogs his size today." He shakes his head, laughs, and taps Weiss' nose. "You hear that? You're too big. To big to play bulldozer."

Arlett: *giggling though a bit to Ethan words*

Avery Woods: She laughs a little more with Ethan's comment about too big to play bulldozer with, covering her mouth quickly with a small blush at him perhaps thinking she was eavesdropping.

Cori: *Weiss blinks and attempts to lick Ethan's finger. Cori laughs* oh, hell no! not even i do that--i toss, he brings it back. of course, there's some serious droolage involed with that.

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "I do." He frowns a little. "Not a portable phone, but I have a phone at my work, and one at my home." He reaches into his backpack, pulling out a notepad to write down his home number in simple, semi-blockish letters.

Ethan Demian Augustus: He winks at Avery. He doesn't mind the eavesdropping. Besides, he's hardly whispering.

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: His eyes flick to Avery as she laughs again...it seems perhaps he shares her opinion as to whether she was eavesdropping or not.

Ethan Demian Augustus: He chuckles again. "I'm worried about the bringing the ball back and forgetting to stop collisions."

Cori: can i beg some paper to give you my number on? *a wry grin* only thing i got to write on is a candy bar. with the candy still in it.

Avery Woods: "I'm sorry," she apologizes to him, the wink making her blush a little more. "I see you have a new friend there."

Cori: *chuckles to Ethan* oh, he never forgets to stop. he just likes to put his feet on yer shoulders an drop the ballin yer lap. *grins widely and winks*

Ethan Demian Augustus: "I think Weiss is everyone's new friend. I'm Ethan."

Arlett: *peering to AVery then to them then around*

Avery Woods: "So that's the fella's name?" she smiles. "Oh, nice to meet you Ethan. I'm Avery. Some call me AJ."

Ethan Demian Augustus: He winces at Cori's explaination. "Yeah...no playing with him today. Sometime, though, if I see you both again. Which I'd like."

Cori: *nods to Avery* Weiss is everyone's new friend. if ya doan mind drool, you can pet him. he'll adore you for life then, right up until someone else new comes along or someone gives him a snack.

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "Of course." He tears off the page with his number, handing it to Cori along with the pad so she can write down her number for him.

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Yeah. That's the beast's name." He rubs Weiss' ruff the wrong way, making the fur stand up. "Pleasure meeting you."

Cori: *laughs softly8 that'd be cool. *nods to Ethan*

Arlett: *right now keeps watching and listening, going a bit serious, while looking a bit around*

Avery Woods: "I don't mind the drool, ma'am. He's probably cleaner than than what I tend to do around the shop." Avery walks up closer and gives the dog a big pat on the head, grinning when Ethan ruffles the fur the wrong way.

Cori: thanks! *grins to Aco. pockets his numbers and jots down hers. returns the notebook and pen. Weiss rumbles happily at the petting, tongue hanging wetly from his short, wrinkled muzzle*

Cori: *giggles* argh, doan ma'am me, please! i'm Cori. *Weiss happily slobbers AJ, groaning at yer more pets*

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: Notebook and pen go into the backpack. He finishes up the cigarette and stubs it out on the bottom of his boots, then walks to a trash bin and deposits it there. No littering from this one.

Cori: *watches Aco and nods slightly. approving*

Avery Woods: "Nice to meet you Cori," only a hint of a southern accent, but there is more of a mix from her travels around the country. "You can call me Avery or AJ." Still petting the dog and scratching behind the ears.

Cori: *Weiss nearly goes crosseyed with bliss, a foot thumping the ground* nice ta meetcha, AJ. *grins widely*

Arlett: why AJ? *curious sudnely, looing to Avery*

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: He heads back to the group, hands going back behind his back, observing them all quietly. It's a nearly miitary pose, posture straight...if not for the man's pagan style of dress and long hair, one might think him a soldier.

Avery Woods: "Was a nickname I got in high school shop class," she answers simply.

Arlett: ahh *nods* oh I'm Arlett

Avery Woods: "Nice to meet you Arlett. That's a really pretty name. Unusal too."

Cori: *gives a rueful grin* oh, boy....i needa get home. i told tha boys i'd spot for dinner tonight. and if i doan get home with food sometime soon, they may make me eat my own cooking. *laughs*

Arlett: *smiles* thanks

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Alright, can I get your number first? Give you mine?"

Avery Woods: She laughs a little bit. "That bad? Don't want that." Taking both hands she gives the dog a really good petting one more time to his head and ears and steps back. "Nice meeting you, Cori. Have a nice evening."

Arlett: *looks to Cori* oh seeya laters then

Cori: sure! *chuckles and fishes out Aco's number,tearing off some of the paper* got a pen?

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "Good evening, Cori. I will be in contact soon. Happy Solstice, and Blessed Be." A brief nod to the woman.

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Nah, I have a cell phone." He pulls said phone out of his pocket, fiddles with it a moment, and says, "number?"

Ethan Demian Augustus: His eyes flick to Griffen at that parting comment, then back to the phone.

Arlett: *Looking then to Griffen* when is the Solstice?

Avery Woods: She definitely looks in Acon's direction when he mentions Solstice. "Isn't it Yule?" she asks.

Cori: *Weiss shudders happily and does his level best to bestow kisses. on both his petters*nice meeting you too, AJ. *grins* see ya soon, Arlett. *a soft chuckle* oh, i'm picking up some stuff for our Yule party at the clubhouse. *giving the girl a serius look, even though she's still grinning cheerfully* you wanna add anything, there's a list on tha table in the meeting room.

Cori: blessed solstice,dude. *smiles warmly to Aco, then chuckles and gives Ethan her number*

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "Tonight," he says to Arlett, and his eyes pass back to Avery. "Yes, Yule. The Winter Solstice."

Cori: *chuckles softly* s'ok, Arlett. just drop by and stuff. it's all good. *another faintly serious look*

Arlett: *smiles to Griffen* I just... never paid atention to it

Avery Woods: She blinks about something, but it could be about the slobbering that she's getting in her face too before she stands up again. "You're quite the cute fella," she grins at the dog with a final pat to his head.

Arlett: *nodding to Cori* alright!

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Traditionally you light the fires and keep them burning, and coax or command or just worship the sun when it rises. Specifics depend on your individual religious traditions, different people, different gods, different ritual. Very similar intents."

Arlett: uhm.. well.... I have never done so.. nothing alike even....

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: He nods a little to Arlett. "Not many do." Sort of a semi-bitter resignation in his voice.

Cori: *nods to Ethan* bingo! *chuckles softly and tugs Weiss's leash gently* come on, ya big lug. *he gives her sad puppy eyes* come on...it'sdinner time! *that works. she gets tugged off by a suddenly-moving dog*

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Well, it sounds like your friends will show you." He smiles reassuringly at Arlett. "Nothing to worry about. It's a celebration and a welcome to the new year. Don't stress over it."

Avery Woods: She listens to Ethan, nodding at what he is saying.

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Good night, Cori. Good night, Weiss!"

Cori: bye! *waves and gets hauled off at a lope. dog must be hungry!*

Arlett: *giggles to Griffen then EThan* well... guess is normal then

Ethan Demian Augustus: "So...we're down one dog...anyone know a good place to get out of the cold and get a cup of tea?" He looks between the three people left curiously.

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: The giggle draws a slight frown from him, though it's quickly gone, expression smoothing into that calm impassiveness.

Avery Woods: "I'm pretty new around these here parts. I'd be up to finding a place to sit down at least."

Arlett: *Looks to Grifen's frown, titls her head* I do not know much of more Traditional things... I am more.. of the moder insight *Smiles a bit* I am ok with your traditions though, just .... dunno

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "There is a coffee shop nearby, just outside of Battery Park." He looks northward.

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "Yes, well...modern ways have their place, or so I am told." He shrugs a bit, and adjusts the backpack on his shoulder.

Arlett: *titls her head* but modern is nothing without its past... well a Teacher told me that...

Avery Woods: She glances to Arlett for a moment, but then back to Acon with the suggestion of the coffee shop, her brown eyes looking in the direction he's giving.

Arlett: *smiles to Avery*

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: He looks at Arlett for a long moment before nodding a little, murmuring his response. "You had a wise teacher."

Arlett: *sighs a bit* he had his downs and ups.... but he was good at history *smiles*

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Shall we continue this somewhere warmer?" He smiles easily at them, head tilting to one side. (Sorry, I got druged off to be given cake.)

Avery Woods: She nods. "I'll follow the leader," she smiles to the group.

Arlett: ((Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake))

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Mmmmm...I'm new to town too, hopefully we'll have company that knows the way." He looks to Griffen with a smile.

Avery Woods: ((I'll be right back folks. Assume she follows them to the coffee shop...))

Arlett: *Looks tot hem all* hot chocolate would be ok *nods*

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: "I have a short amount of time before I must be off..." He nods a little, turning North, toward the shop. "This way." And that way he heads.

Ethan Demian Augustus: His eyes close as he stands, and he stays still a few seconds before opening his eyes and heading after Griffen, smile just slightly strained.

Arlett: *she follows up*

Arlett: *eyeing Ethan* ya fine?

Ethan Demian Augustus: He smiles to Arlett, a little sheepish. "Yeah, I'm fine. Don't worry about it."

Avery Woods: And she follows, trailing behind the trio.

Arlett: uhm... okey

Griffen "Aconite" Aston: ((Off to DT Rest?))

Arlett: ((skitters))

Ethan Demian Augustus: (Good for me! *poofs to there*)

BATTERY CAFE

Griffon "Aconite" Aston: He pushes the door to the cafe opening, looking around with a bit of a frown. He moves into the place and heads to a booth, setting his pack down under the table and sitting.

Arlett: *follows in, looking around a bit*

Avery Woods: She moves inside the place, looking around, keeping it in mind as a possible place to come to another time...if the food is decent.

Ethan Demian Augustus: He eases into the booth with a sigh. "Wonderful." He looks up with a smile to Griffen. "It's a nice place."

Griffon "Aconite" Aston: He leans back in his seat and orders a regular coffee, without additives, when the waitress approaches. Otherwise staying silent for now.

Griffon "Aconite" Aston: "it suffices," he responds to Ethan with a shrug.

Arlett: ((aww.. *S*)) *she sits and looks around, lookign to Ethan* it is *a little smile, looking around with a lil sigh, then shakes her head* uhmm.. chips wiht chocolate! *when the waitress comes*

Avery Woods: She sits on the other side of the booth, a glance to Acon. "I'm sorry sir, I never caught your name. I'm Avery, or AJ, if you missed it earlier."

Ethan Demian Augustus: Predictably enough, he orders tea. He's not as talkative either, but he seems to be catching his breath. No doubt he'll resume the talking soon.

Griffon "Aconite" Aston: "Griffen Aston." He nods to Avery, extending a hand across the table. "A pleasure, Miss Avery."

Avery Woods: She offers him her hand and shakes it firmly, her hand a bit rough and calloused. "Nice to meet you Mr Griffen."

Griffon "Aconite" Aston: He smiles and takes his hand back.

Avery Woods: She sits back against the seat again. And when the waitress comes, she orders some fries and a hot chocolate.

Arlett: *orders... ChiPs coated in chocolate syrioup and a hot chocolate!*

Griffon "Aconite" Aston: ((Umm...wow. So, I'm passing out at my chair, after only 7 hours of consciousness. Hate to do it, guys, but I'm gonna bail for a couple hours, take a nap.))

Avery Woods: She glances to Arlett. "You really like chocolate?"

Arlett: ((night Rav)) *gigles to Avery* yes! adicted to *nods*

Avery Woods -> Griffon "Aconite" Aston: ((Have a good nap! Thanks for letting me get a chance to play my new mage with ya! :) ))

Ethan Demian Augustus: [*hugs* Get some rest love.]
