Re: Best Way to Die (Glenn)
Glenn let out a small sigh. As nice as it was to hear he wouldn't have to deal with human bandits in a place like this, dealing with the alternative wasn't really any better. Not with the toll they were probably going to ask for to pass, the sea bishop clearly already imagining how he'd 'pay' for them. 'I haven't ever payed a bandit toll before on the mainland, and I'm not about to start now if I can help it.' In the smallest little back of Glenn's mind, he hoped they would be dangerous and cutthroat. Truly villainous beings in both appearance and nature, so that there would be no doubt when he unsheathed to strike at them. He gave his blade a thoughtful pat at the now slim possibility.
No humans around also meant that there probably wasn't a town nearby as well. At least as he imagined; a walled, safe enclosure with all the amenities of home. If this was a wild territory it wasn't out of the question that there were wild 'towns' as well. Hopefully, if they encountered one, or any outpost out in this place really, that the inhabitants would be hospitable. Aurine's cheshire grin caught Glenn off guard when he finally noticed it, still expecting the Sea Bishop to maintain either her blank look or angry face. Her comment that he wasn't going to sleep in a tent confused him though. Why set up three tents if they weren't going to use one. Was it just extra or...
Iora's interruption and the sudden loud boom from the lake rattled Glenn from his thoughts. On inspection of the lake however, while Aurine made her piece toward the plant woman, he noted that nothing seemed to have actually occurred to it. Not a single ripple appeared to mire the surface, a far cry from the show of power that had occurred earlier with Aya on the lake. Regardless of it's lack of physical effect it was quite the attention getter. As was the sudden change of expression from Aurine when she turned on her hee... fin, and looked at the man with a strangely serene smile. Airing her question of whether he was going to sleep with her tonight or not. Not that it was really a question of course. Her tone and the way her eyes glinted behind that smile made that very obvious.
He gave Aurine a few rapid blinks, adjusting to the change in her mood. He wasn't really sure if he should be happy or suddenly afraid. "Of course sweethear... ah..." A little dejectedly Glenn stopped himself short and corrected. "... of course Miss Aurine. But if the tents are out just where are we going to sleep?" He assumed the mermaid needed at least some method of keeper herself moist, so just using the lake seemed like the most obvious answer. It'd probably get a little cold though, depending on how much the temperature dropped. But then Glenn recalled that Aurine had tapped the carriage earlier, and with a sudden twinkle in his eye it became clear. "We're sleeping in your carriage together aren't we?"
