Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:33:01 AM)
*He'd finished his late night shift and was over in a corner booth with breakfast and a notebook*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:35:22 AM)
*Walks over to the corner booth, grinning from ear to ear*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:36:00 AM)
*He motioned for Tyler to sit still smiling a little himself his fingers automatically teasing the ring round his thumb*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:37:42 AM)
Have a good time last night? You were there when I got up. *Pooka pout*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:38:23 AM)
*He chuckled and scribbled "I had to work…otherwise I would of stayed you know that darling…and I'm fairly certain you know I had a good time last night I'm glad you and Mel got your issues settled and we can proceed as a trio"*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:45:09 AM)
Well, I didn't give Mel a stare this morning, pulled on my jeans and shirt so I could grab some breakfast. She seemed tuckered out.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:45:49 AM)
*He smiled scribbling "We do good work…"*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:48:04 AM)
Not like she deserves it. *Grins*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:48:23 AM)
*Wheeze snort as he nods and leans in on Tyler "Not like you don't either…"*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:50:41 AM)
Not like I'm madly in love with both of you. Funny how that works.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:51:02 AM)
*He smiles and nods writing"Isn't it a beautiful thing…"*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:52:48 AM)
*When a waitress notices him, orders eggs, toast, bacon, sausage, OJ, coffee, and pancakes*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:53:15 AM)
*Scribbled"What are you plans for today love?"

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:54:23 AM)
Huge and utterly important plans of...not doing much.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:54:47 AM)
*Wheeze snort "What did I miss last evening?"

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:55:16 AM)
You didn't miss a lot of cuddling.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:55:41 AM)
*Rolls his eyes and corrects himself " I meant at the hold…"

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:56:15 AM)
Oh. I'm entirely sure how it turned out, but they were dealing with the Hunger.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 11:56:48 AM)
*He motions for him to tell what he knows*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 11:57:48 AM)
(Had to leave partway though that scene) I didn't get stuck in the tunnel and didn't get to see much

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:00:44 PM)
*He nodded slowly and sighed "Looks like I have to find someone else to pump information out of was Aleron there?"

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:01:04 PM)
Yes, I don't remember that sidhe being there.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:02:37 PM)
*He nods and scribbles "Ill have to spend time with him and get the rest of the story for the Chronicler…"*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:04:01 PM)
*Doesn't say anything to that, plays with his ring*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:04:29 PM)
*He leans over looking at Tyler"You like it don't you?"

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:05:00 PM)
Oh, it's so the ring, I love it, I'm not thinking about anything else.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:05:47 PM)
*He makes a mmhmm sort of smile "So you aren't going to tell me your on cloud nine knowing that your fears were unwarranted?"*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:06:07 PM)
Never.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:07:07 PM)
*Scribbled "Well I could go away if thats the case…I mean if your not really happy"*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:07:57 PM)
Ink. It's...I don't feel silly telling you this, dammit.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:08:43 PM)
*He smiled waiting patiently*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:09:27 PM)
I don't feel a twinge of something when you mentioned spending time with Aleron, who...well, frankly, he almost accepted my invitation once before we weren't...serious.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:14:05 PM)
*He tilted his head and scribbled "You realize Tyler he's offered before but I realized that is an empty pool pretty to look at and cotaining nothing…not like you and Mel which are my world and everything…Believe me the only dance partners I'll have the rest of my days are you two..."*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:16:12 PM)
*Before thinking about it* He wasn't your first, was he? *Then places his face down, realizing how tactless that was* Yeah...don't forget I said anything.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:18:36 PM)
*He scribbled "Mel and you were my firsts…"*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:19:21 PM)
Ahh, ok.

*He scribbles "I'm suprised you didn't know that…"*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:20:37 PM)
*He then grins at Ink, practically glowing* I thought you didn't mention something else to that effect.

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:20:52 PM)
*parking out front, he paces around the hood of the vehicle to open the door for Emma graciously and offer her his left hand to help her out*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:22:14 PM)
*He scribbled "Only dance partners I've ever had. I don't see why everyone seems to think Aleron and I have had discourse we're just friends"*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:22:37 PM)
*She climbs out* You know, on th'bayou, th'only ponies we have are seahorses. I have a cousin, he fed one raw eggs an' whey t'make it big an' strong, so big that he could slip a bridle right over its head an'ride it about th'delta...

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:23:21 PM)
It...was exactly that. Or, more to the point, it's not that I was jealous about spending time with a handsome, availble, sidhe.

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:23:53 PM)
Shikoba is not a seahorse, I'm sorry to disappoint. *chuckling and opening the door to the cafe as if on cue*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:24:25 PM)
*He scribbles "I honestly don't see why Tyler…He is a friend but we won't ever have that. Nor would I want to. "*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:24:30 PM)
Well, I'm sure she'll be okay, too. Maybe not such a good swimmer... merci! *She enters*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:25:43 PM)
Well...we can't drop this topic of conversation, can we?

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:26:26 PM)
*He looks mildly annoyed and offended to Tyler goes back to flipping pages through his book to find a good clean one*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:27:08 PM)
Good morning Ink, Tyler. Hope I find you both well.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:27:38 PM)
Bonjour! Swamp tour? *she takes a flier from her stack for each of them*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:28:24 PM)
*He looks up to Aleron and nods and scribbles "I was just going to seek you out to find out last nights issues and what transpired…if you'd be kind to take it down for me so that I might finish putting the issue together?" he took a flier and looked it over slowly and slid a notebook down for Aleron to write in*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:29:43 PM)
*Just as she said - a flyer for swamp tours, with a photo of the bayou, and some pricing and contact information*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:30:40 PM)
*walking over to the table and letting the door swing shut behind himself, his voile fighting a losing battle to hide the white oxford with rolled sleeves, grey slacks and the pinstripe vest (complete with watch chain). The faded blue coat and pristine white gloves seeming almost ghostly overlaid upon the bared forearms of his mortal guise* I suppose I could. *glancing about the diner to see how crowded it was* Though wordsmithing is your talent, Ink. not mine.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:31:34 PM)
*He scribbled"Just a simple recollection of facts will suffice I will add the flowering language at a later time Sir."*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:32:29 PM)
Hm. D'y'hafta water an' manure it t'make'm grow? That's what Papa says makes th'best flowers. Does anyone want tea? Or coffee?

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:32:56 PM)
*looking to Emma as he takes a seat* Would you mind adding a bit then, once I write up the summary? *taking pen to paper with a striking and slanted script*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:33:16 PM)
*He actually looked at Em and frowned a little catching that but not quite certain it was intentional from the pooka and simply shook his head*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:33:16 PM)
Ink, can't I borrow a piece of paper and a pen?

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:33:34 PM)
*He gave Tyler another notepad to work in*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:33:38 PM)
(it was THE notepad)

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:34:22 PM)
*Writes something down, a few sentences, and hands it back.*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:35:30 PM)
*She goes to get coffee*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:36:45 PM)
*He reads the page and simply nods slipping the notepad away as he waits for Aleron to give him a synopsis as he watches Emma now with curious eyes*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:37:20 PM)
(OMFG FINALLY STUPID BUTTON HOLES!)

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:37:57 PM)
*She takes her mug, drifting over to add copious amounts of cream and sugar to it*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:38:01 PM)
*The pook's handwriting is lackadasial, like the rest of him, if anyone's curious*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:38:38 PM)
*His breakfast arrives, putting it away. He seems content, although slightly worried he's in the bullpen.*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:38:48 PM)
(afk one second)

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:40:35 PM)
*he passes a page to Emma, plenty of room for edits left*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:41:57 PM)
*She skims the note* Well, a few of us entered th'game room. You might know it, it has some books there too, but mostly it has a game of king an' queens instead of good honest checkers. Anyhow, in th'middle of that was a great gateway, leadin' down t'a series of caverns....

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:43:31 PM)
(wishes i knew how to screen cap on the mac)

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:44:05 PM)
Th'tunnel beyond turned out t'be th'throat of a dragon, an' kinda sticky. You ever been in a bouncy house? They have th'funniest floors t'walk on, an' it's hard t'keep your balance. It's luck ain't none of use were claustrophobics, because everythin' was so wide open....

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:44:57 PM)
*He took down notes as he listened to the pooka translating as he went*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:45:33 PM)
*hands her a second page and listens to the elaboration without objection. He sets the pen down lightly*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:46:49 PM)
Of course, not everybody managed t'handle th'obstacle course. They felt th'squeezin' was comforting, an' laid down t'nap... some spoil sports said no t'that, an' yanked'm free. They may've been better off nappin', since that's when everybody came face t'face with th'monster. It had 15 red eyes! They glowed in th'dark, and th'floors shook as its tummy rumbled. "FEED ME, SEYMOUR!" it said. "AIN'T NONE OF US CALLED SEYMOUR," I said, but I don't think th'Hunger heard me...

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:47:45 PM)
*starts to grimace as the embellishments get further out of hand, rising from the table wordlessly and looking for the coffeepot and a cup*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:47:47 PM)
(LOL i love how I'm translating this as I go)

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:48:13 PM)
Th'redcap got all chatty with it, comparin' cuisine notes - they're cousins, you know. An' as they were chattin', we all looked about for th'other door. There were a few - one, a walkway upon th'water, two, a mousehole, an' three, a door with no handle...

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:49:18 PM)
(though its getting harder and harder >.<)

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:49:56 PM)
Worryin' about if we could swim or not, or if th'water might stain everyone's clothes, we looked at th'mouse hole next. It was tiny, even' a mouse would have a tight squeeze, but when it was stabbed, a fat mouse could fit through. I, bein' th'tallest mouse, went into that one....

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:50:18 PM)
((That means I'm doing it right! :P ))

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:50:25 PM)
((basially yes))

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:52:19 PM)
I'm guessin' Imani insulted th'Hungry Man, because they got into a scuffle... *Skimming the note again* Oh... it was a battle, even, with th'fighters fightin' with th'strength of ten men apiece, an' blades awhirl. Inigo struck, even when his knife had turned into a stave....

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:52:46 PM)
*unable to take that much* Emma..you weren't even there.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:53:14 PM)
*He blinked a little having written something that only remotely looked like what Emma was saying*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 12:53:15 PM)
Well, and that's only because my kith are psychic and very reliable narrators, Aleron.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:53:21 PM)
But you said so right here! *She points at his notes*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:54:32 PM)
An' y'came over t'Narnia right after... which was so sick, it had caught th'Countess' flu, so it couldn't come out an' play an' shine bright...

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:54:48 PM)
*exhaling slowly and nodding fractionally, just..drinking his coffee*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:55:13 PM)
*That part made no sense to him then he slowly picked through that thought it looked painful for the sluagh to do*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:56:37 PM)
*She frowns, and extends the notes back to the Gwydion*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 12:57:19 PM)
Some sort of..dark mist about the tree the Countess was trapped in. *by way of explanation, accepting the notes back. He watches Emma a moment, and then simply sets them in front of Ink*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 12:58:59 PM)
*She looks down at her coffee, expression glum*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 12:59:34 PM)
*He slowly read this making a little more sense since there were names included and he nodded looking to Em and scribbled "Both of them made sense…thank you both for the information I will be sure to place in the issue that you were both accountable for the last bit…"*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 1:02:26 PM)
*A slight shrug*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 1:02:31 PM)
*Rubs the new ring on his thumb*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:03:23 PM)
*He frowned as he looked over at Aleron and scribbled "Your editing the tale…I have to have complete records for the Lord of the house…or I'm no scribe at all"*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 1:04:03 PM)
*quietly* I told you, I am not a wordsmith. What do you believe I have failed to include?

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:04:30 PM)
*He looks closely at Aleron *

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 1:06:14 PM)
*grey eyes on the sluagh* I gave full accounting of the events. After what I've written.. I spoke with Count Landry briefly about sending Baroness Marie-Elise to help his afflicted brother.. Both Counts departed and we exited the realm on an alabaster staircase amid bloomign spring.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:06:45 PM)
*He took a deep breath and slowly added that last bit to the recounting ...*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 1:07:25 PM)
So...all's well that ends well? *Sardonically, obviously doesn't believe it*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:08:42 PM)
*He simply kept his thoughts to himself as he finished writing and then wrote "Thank you for your time and your tale Sir. You as well Em…both are greatly appreciated. I had a dreamer to attend to last night.."*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 1:08:46 PM)
The Countess is at peace. Duke Galan will doubtlessly investigate. I acted without the cousel or permission of either Baron or Baroness. It should provide an easy solution if one is necessary to appease the Duke. *quietly*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 1:09:17 PM)
*She looks up sharply* No...

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 1:09:35 PM)
((Counsel even))

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:10:00 PM)
*He simply frowned again saying nothing his black eyes quiet thoughtful*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 1:11:39 PM)
*grey eyes calm as he finds the pooka again* I did not offer out of any sense of pleasure, Emma. I hope you didn't think that poorly of me.

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 1:12:14 PM)
Do be stupid. *His voice is hard.* The woman hadn't been trying to kill us non-stop. It's not like the Hunger didn't try to kill me or Ink, or the Ice Grenade try to kill everyone in the hold. It's not we won't fight this hard for our lives to be controlled by some fat sidhe toad.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:12:18 PM)
*He sat there a moment fidgeting with his pencil thoughtfully*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:12:36 PM)
*He held up a hand to Tyler and scribbled "Right to life is right to life..."

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 24, 2011 1:13:07 PM)
But.... -No.- You aren't allowed to do that. You aren't a lamb pooka. *She sets her jaw stubbornly*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 1:13:18 PM)
As long it's on a string, hey, Ink?

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 1:13:53 PM)
The Countess was very consenous about the right to our lives.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:13:57 PM)
*There was a clouded expression in Ink's eyes as if seeing far ahead and he didn't like what he saw*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:14:44 PM)
*He scribbled * Emma is entitled to her choice on the matter just as you are yours…both of your voices are heard but what of the voices unheard…." and he left it at that*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:15:55 PM)
*He slowly gathered up his things and scribbled "I need to find some certain parchment…I have letters to write…"*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:16:32 PM)
*For once he's being quite sluaghish….*

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:17:22 PM)
*He gave Aleron a long look as he got up and then slowly kissed Tylers cheek and headed out a man on a mission*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 1:18:26 PM)
Dreaming be with you. *Doesn't ask questions*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 24, 2011 1:18:39 PM)
*to no one in particular, though he looks at Emma* I do not go quietly.

Gabriel 'Ink' Langdon (Aug 24, 2011 1:18:55 PM)
*He sighed as he exited hanging his head*

Tyler, would you be kind enough to see Emma home? I don't believe she's in any shape to carry out her plans.

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 1:30:05 PM)
That wasn't a dismissal. *Flat.*

Tyler Smith (Aug 24, 2011 1:30:33 PM)
C'mon, Em. Maybe we won't get ice cream or something on your way home.

I brought Emma here though, I wished to see she had a safe way home.
