Archibald's left eye twitches a few times, then he chuckles again. "The butter tastes... FUNNY!" He giggles some more... a wheezing, hoarse laugh at his... joke?

While all that was happening Max found his way to the roof and was just sitting up there watching the storm

Once Yerandell sees that Nines has plenty of people worrying about him, he notices that max left for the roof. So, he heads up and joins him. "Hows it looking?"

The storm has finally arrived. The wind whips splashes of water against the glass windows, and the sound of heavy rain and wind is soothing. Every now and then, rumbling thunder can be heard, it still seems distant, and there seems to be no immediate danger, but it is very uncomfortable outside, and any travelers out there, should seek shelter immediately.

Dusk nods knowingly to the silverware clad dwarf and Morgan. "Thanks for your help." then proceeds to address Nine "I'm terribly sorry for what happened to you. I could ask Master Cornelius or Master Felixus to have a look at the stone and figure out, if there is any upcoming danger to the tavern. But I will probably have to wait, till the storm passes."

Then he sits down on a bench in tailor fashion, and rests his paws on his knees. With a deep sigh, he closes his eyes and a slight breeze, carrying the scent of cherries can be perceived.

Hey guys I got a great idea. Let's make a blanket fort! But we need Thekla's approval. It is her Tavern after all. Scarlet seems to be really excited about this idea. She goes over to Thekla seeking approval.

Morgan raises an eyebrow at Scarlet's suggestion.

*A...blanket fort?  In the middle of a tavern?*

Yeah, why not. Do you have a problem with that?

Yerandell comes back downstairs, hearing the last part of that conversation, and says"why not? A blanket fort sounds just like something to get the mood back up."

Cloud cracks her first genuinely cheerful smile since Nim walked in. I'm game, as long as Thekla's all right with it. She glances over to the bar.

I'm going to start collect blankets, robes, and cloaks. Does anyone have any that we can use? Scarlet goes around to try and get stuff from people.

"Sure, I got tons of that stuff. I got a whole linen closet. I'll be right back."

Any luck in there? Scarlet asks. Who wants to join our blanket fort? If it's allowed..... 

The dwarf backs out of his bag, arms full of pillows, blankets, comforters, and a mattress. "Sorry, this is all I got."

Yells out Pillow fort

Alright so whats the game plan? I think that we should get a whole bunch of tables and chairs and use those as the supports. 

OOC: Star what is your character again? For the life of me I can't remember.

Sounds good to me. Maybe tables in the middle and chairs along the edge?

Thekla laughs, “Of course, kittens!”

”I bet Felixus would approve of this idea.”

Thank you so much Thekla! She hugs the small Michtim.

Archibald watches the group round up supplies for the blanket fort and tilts his head in confusion. A fort... inside a tavern that is inside a house? He assumes the storm must be really bad if they are taking such precautions to stay sheltered. He reaches into a grubby old patchwork pack and finds some rope and a dried up waterskin, a long patch of cloth that used to be a bedroll, and a pile of debris... one shoe without the sole, some chicken bones, a broken piece of chalk and a small leather ball. Most of it seems to have been salvaged from refuse. Gingerly, he presents them as offerings to aid in this crisis he doesn't fully understand and awaits instructions with a stillness similar to a dog waiting for someone to throw the stick.
