Of Bartenders, the Winter Beast, and Leading the Way
Nealiminity and the Bartender, continued
Nealiminity finished off her drink. She had not really taken her time with it, after all. As she did, she closed one eye. It seemed to help with the sudden surge of alcohol level in her blood for the moment. Opening it slowly, she smiled at Manny. She had caught what he'd just said- and was almost certain of what he had almost said.
"Well. Initmidated by older women, but still chivalrous enough to offer a safe escort from ruffians that, by the sound of things, can't handle decent liquor. Manny, you surprise me." she said, and ran a hand back through her hair. She liked surprises- if they weren't the nasty kind. Then again, even those ended up being kind of... fun.
"It's been a while since I've had to play human." she said softly. "But if you really thin' I need an escorrrt, then, please." she paused. "Of course, I'm in no hurry to leave right now. Though..." she looked down at the empty glass. "I suppose the barkeep's gonna cut me off soonenuf." She smiled. Her smile was a little lopsided.

Se'rox and the Winter Beast
Se'rox had to struggle not to giggle when her kiss stole the words out of Zuchax III's mouth for a few minutes. And what he said after brought a large smile across her face. She said nothing, just listened to him. Care for my every whim? Hm. If I had actually wanted anything more than being with him, that could be useful. Guess he gets off easy, then. she thought.
As he leaned back, she hardened the mud behind him enough that it acted like a reclining chair-back, so that he wouldn't slip back in the mud anymore. And as much as she loved playing in the mud, it was a very cold breeze that came through. And while she also loved snow, a cold breeze in wet snow with practically nothing on sent an involuntary shiver down her spine. She tried to hide it, but she was practically wrapped up in Zuchax III's arms. She did snuggle in closer, but if it kept up much longer, she was going to need to get out of the mud and into some warmer clothes first. Which would be fine. As long as Zuchax III was within two feet of her the entire time.

Taran and Leading the Way
Taran, a Great White Dragon, waited patiently as Lizbeth and Creighton seemed to weigh their choices. He wanted to roll his eyes. Buuut, he didn't.
He zapped one stupid n00b that had stopped running away and was only walking away. Then he turned back to human- in case that was part of the reason they were not ready to follow.
"Please. They won't stay scared nearly as long as they ought to." he said, and turned, starting back to the ship. He doubted they wanted to stay there, and more could be explained once they were safely in the air.
