“Calix…..” Zephyr groaned
The Fantasy Tavern
group
"A jerk."
Riverpaw giggled quietly, her ears twitching as Tsunami started licking the back of her head. She looked over at Zephen. "H-hey..do you think we should've told everyone else w-we were leaving?"
“Shoot! I’m sure they’ll catch up…” Zephen said
group
"They probably figured out that we left and are on their way here." he answered.
“So, River, have anyone special? We already know about Calix’s boyfriend, but what about you?”
Riverpaw's eyes widened, and she looked back at the bar, pulling her shoulders up to hide her face. "M-maybe.." Tsunami huffed playfully, blowing Riverpaw's hair up.
“Is that a yes?”
She nodded slowly, taking another sip of her water.

Calix walked to the backroom and shut the door.
“Who?” Zephen asked, intrigued
Riverpaw hummed, looking away. Her friends from the forest do the same thing, and she still doesn't understand why people get so interested when she talks about it. "U-um..t-two fauns from my forest." She said quietly.
(What happened I missed a lot)
“Two? Nice. I your guys stay happy! I used to have someone special….” Zephen trailed off, memories flooding back.
(DUDES WHAT HAPPENED)
(lol, Riverpaw freaked out and she, Zephen and Calix went back to the tavern)
Riverpaw tilted her head at Zephen. "What happened?"
Nellie sat down next to Zephen.
She was a spy and the king figured it out. He ordered me to Kill her. I couldn’t, we were in love. I told her to run away. Go into hiding. She did, I told the king she was dead. I killed the king a month later
"Oh…I-I'm sorry.." Riverpaw looked down at the cup, and Tsunami nudged Zephen comfortingly.
Nellie put her hand on Zephen's shoulder.

Calix came out of the back room and noticed Nellie was there now. "do you want anything to drink?"
(Whoops! Forgot the “” sorry!)
Nellie nodded, saying, "the same as this morning."
“Thank you. I didn’t mean to make everyone sad.”
group
"Sure." he gave her the same thing from the morning.
"I'm always sad." Riverpaw shrugged. "I-I just distract myself with guardian duties and animals."
“Oh. I’m sorry. Nellie! You’re back!”
group
"And it is almost midnight."
“Crap! It’s late!”
group
"Yeah, so I kinda want to go to sleep."
