Era glared back, not scared at all. She had been to much crap yesterday to be scared right now. 'Excuse your rudeness! Throwing everything on the floor. Yeah that helps. I'm sure mister mind invader is really impressed by that... old man.''

Era saw the guy pacing. She went on with a heated voice.

'Hey cool down tough guy, Your scaring my baby and that pissing me off. (Era hates it when peopel yell and seeing her baby griffin scared awakend mother instincts )
'I am not some little girl or fair maiden, I can handle myself, I'm fine now, I got over it, next Time I see him I will kick him in the nuts, let's see how well he controls then. Anyhow, I got enough crap over me the last 2 days, and I need no more from you thanks.'

Era stood up and hugged her griffin. 'So we can do 2 things from this point, 1 you cool down, clean up your mess, and we can have that dinner, or 2 you can pace around like some possesed bear demon from hell and I'm taking my little griffin out of here.'

The little griffin was shaking in Era's arms. Era calmed down, and said the last part in a more gentle tone.

'Thanks for your concern, but this does not help me in any way. So sit your******down and take a deep breath, or have fun destroying some other innocent vases while I'm off bothering Talon and comforting griffin. Your choice old man.'

-cottage-

Lucien halts mid pace and observes her, he was not used to being ordered. He pinches the bridge of his nose and pauses counting to twenty. "I'm sorry I'm going to need a minute." He exits the room in a rather rushed manner though a door presumably outside or to another area of the house.

-several (like 7-12) long minutes later-

Lucien returns in the same manner he left, rushed and with is head down, muttering unintelligibly.
"I-I am sorry, I am not used to being...instructed...in that manner." He watches her with carful eyes. "You are right, you have grown much. And if you are insistent then I will withdraw myself, pardon an old man for his senility will you?" He bow deeply to her. "I apologize for worrying you griffon. I should be grateful most creatures of this earth despise me with a great passion, this one seems unaffected. {For now.}" He chuckles thought of his words to come not the thoughts that pass, his face returns to hers. "You have changed Era." He walks over and uprights his table, in a perfectly calm fashion. "Your friend may enter, give me a moment to make rights of my home though."

Plates are reset, clean unbroken ones, a fresh vase of flowers is put on the table, a new fruit basket finds a home. All is well once again.

Era had calmed down and was able to calm down her griffin. She replied to the changed comment Lucien made.

'I should hope so, seeing as I grew older and wiser and all that. So you think it's a good thing or a bad thing.'

Era asked but not in a questioning tone.

'Why did you get so rilled up anyway?'

(Lucien was never really gone he just hardly ever appears in 'town'. If you want to actually converse with him it is nigh impossible to do it outside of his little work-space. I doubt many people really pay attention to him because he is not really with the rest of the group or in an area that they glimpse him for more than a second. If Era has not visited him in a year then it's been a year.)

(Era is not the type of person not to visit though. And in town? Aren't we at camp? I'm confused lol Anyway I changed the former post.)

(I believe Lucien is in a town he's building out side of camp)

Talon pulled an apple out of his backpack (wihich he always carryed with him)) and started eating

Hunter walked to the caravan "so whats going on?" Hunter asked. Kim had been standing out side the caravan wanting to let fester tell his story without her interference now she poked her head inside

(He's near not in town, ten fifteen minute jog away tops, you probably can see the smoke form his cottage from the town.}

"Good." Lucien replies but does not elaborate, their time together was ending as soon another would enter. He shuts himself down and pulls in to the fine shell displayed with pretty colors for all(this is not a real physical shell it's a state of mind). "Your friend is waiting." He adjust the last vase.

(Hey guys I just wanted to let you know that for me it's finals week and I might not be able to post as much as I would like to, If at all. I'm really sorry about this but fortunately after that I will be free for the summer)

'You didn't answer my question Luc, but ok. I'll go see of he wants to get in.'

Era walked outside seeing Talon eating an apple. She waved to him.

'Hey Tal! Want to come in? You seem a bit lonely out there all by yourself. Join us, we have meat and veggies.'

Lucien flinches at her high notes...Kim was not suppose to know about his vast storages of food...{it's not hording it was being tactical. What Km doesn't know won't hurt her.}
