(OOC - Rinn would go back to the Stonehill to be with the majority of the group, though he doesn't need as much sleep as everyone else, so he'll stay out for a while.)
After a trip to the outhouse, a wash at the pump and a few deep breaths, Blaire wanders back in. Rinn and Eli gone. "Those boys alright?"
She picks up one of Rinn's left Ale and starts drinking it while setting herself a new pipe. "Got some really good leaf from that Qelline runs Alderleaf; nice lady. Don't think da place was their 'amly first. Too big."
((When Blaire gets back I think there’s just Robwin, TT and Wolfsong left is that right? What time is it roughly?)).
Robwin is happy. Despite all the danger around and about, and his trepidation over his final assessment in Phandalin, he’s found some good friends to hang out with, and powerful allies. He’s not into getting drunk, but he’s enjoying the drink and food. He’ll continue to order drinks through the evening but just sip them so they last a while.
Eventually he’ll say, “So what’s the plan for tomorrow then? Check out the job board? Maybe ask about work around town? The miners exchange, and such? Then think about finding this Rockseeker fellow?”.
When vague plans for tomorrow are settled, Robwin will approach Elsa, “Thank you for looking after us all evening. We’ve had a wonderful night. I’m sorry if a couple got a little out of hand! Do we add the tab to the rooms or would you rather we settle up now?”.
Wolfsong downs his drink and lets out a chuckle when Blaire elbows him watching the drinks begin to affect the others.
Listen to Eli and Blaire's back and forth Wolfsong only lets out a small sigh when Eli falls unconscious. After Blaire steps out Wolfsong downs his drink then leans back in his chair, he had never been one of such a social atmosphere, but maybe it was something he could get used to. As Rinn leaves Wolfsong gives him a nod.
“They should be fine,” Wolfsong answers before also taking one of the drink left on the table. “Rinn left for a walk, while Eli went to bed. We should think about returning to the farm soon ourselves, you mentioned something about the owners asking us to hunt as part of the deal to let us camp there. You drink too much you may not be of any help on the hunt, and I do not know how our goblin friends will be me alone.”
Wolfsong takes a long draw from the mug then continues, “They may listen to me out of fear, but that makes for a poor hunting party, it would be best if you were there.”
Wolfsong drains the mug then turns to Robwin and nods towards Elsa, “You should take the chance, you never know when the hunt will turn against you, find enjoyment when you can.”
Blaire will drain the Ale she has in hand and say, "Wolfsong, You're right. 'ope Rinn doesn't run into anything. 'e was in town for awhile 'fore I get 'ere." (*hic*) giggle "Yup, til ta stop."
Elsa smiles brightly, "Oh, well, I think you all more than covered your food an drink. And don’t worry. You-you all were downright tame compared to some I had to deal with."
"The redhead was a bit loud but no more than the dwarves when they get going. An that Eli; seems he was a bit tired."
"I think that's the longest Sarah or I have seen Rinn stay in one place since he arrived in town. He must be getting on well?"
“Lia? Yeah... Oh, she was acting weird, so I sent her away for a little rest!”, Robwin says to Elsa with a chuckle. He raises his forearm and clicks in his cheek to summon her again... but she doesn’t appear on his arm, she appears right in front of his face flapping her wings at him.
Then she quickly lands on the bar between Robwin and Elsa and scuttles over to the barmaid and presses against her, and tries to get under her arm, and eventually settles up on her shoulder and fluffs all her feathers out to make her tiny body look super fluffy.
”What are you doing?! ..What do you think you’re doing climbing all over people?... ...Elsa, I’m sorry!”.
Robwin blinks at Elsa for a second remembering what Blaire and Wolfsong had said earlier, and then says “Yeah okay...”, taking her hand, and leading them through the bar towards one of the empty rooms.
As with Rinn's night about Phandalin, Wolfsong and Blare make it back to the thatched shed without issue. It is a beautiful night, Selûne's waning gibbous casts a beautiful silver light. It will be a quarter moon in three or four days.
(( And fade to black. Let us know how Robwin and Elsa fare this night. Is this the start of a fun friendship, a budding relationship or something else And? - nothing explicit or rule bending, obviously. And don't forget to level up.))
Elsa and Robwin seem to really hit it off. She’s the first person to be into him, for just him, in a long time. And it’s the first time he’s let himself relax in the weeks since leaving Neverwinter. She would have noticed his starburst of scars over his heart, but I assume she’d be too polite to mention it for now. In the morning he’d tell her their investigations would lead the party out of town for a few days. He’d try to impress upon her the importance of keeping safe and the danger of the dragon. He’d ask if she’s working the next few days and if she’d be around when they got back. He’d ask for some kind of token or favour she might give him, to take with him, to remember her by while he’s on the road. He’ll genuinely offer to leave Lia with her, to watch over her, while he’s gone. And when they go down to breakfast, if she’s nearby almost all of his attention will be on her.
Robwin is a creature of routine and habit, and will be up and down for breakfast, to start the day, at the usual time. As he doesn’t need much time to trance this might be earlier than some people. Periodically he’ll be muttering spells to himself, and will ritually cast comprehend languages, and maybe detect magic too, to pass the time until anyone else comes down.
Elsa finds Robwin truly endearing. She shares everything easily with you.. She promises she'll be about and definitely available for and to you whenever you're available. She'll take one of her ribbons and braid it into a tight tress that looks nice and lays easily behind your ear. It was one of the items Sara's mother gave her the last time she visited a decade ago. Elsa's mother died when she was very young, but Sarah's mother, an Elf ranger, came into Phandalin every five years until this last two cycles. Their father works at Axeholm, a mine south of town. He works two tenday, comes back to town and goes back for another two tenday. She laughs a lot about Lia, but persuades Robwin to keep her with him.
At the sound of Blaire leaving Wolfsong's eyes shoot open as he instinctively draws his short sword and begins looking around for any hostile creature nearby. Once he sees there is nothing close Wolfsong cautiously gets to his feet, seeing Blaire, her wolf, and one of the goblins gone Wolfsong leaves the shed. Spotting Blaire and the familiar figure Wolfsong walks over to join them.
“Hail, did not expect to see you again so soon,” Wolfsong calls as he gets close, the scars on his bare chest shining silver in the light of dawn. “What brings you here?”

"Oh, Robwin, yeah, dat's good. I wanna ask that Thornton 'bout da land. An da Wester.", slurs Blaire nodding.
Blaire puts two more gold on the table looking to Robwin. "For whatever we forgot, yeah?"
Robwin,

Elsa starts laughing!
"I don't know if she's trying to be adorable which she is or threatening; which is frankly flattering!"
Elsa then looks at you and smiles coyly, "I can carry her up to your room, if you'd like to lead the way."
Robwin blinks at Elsa for a second remembering what Blaire and Wolfsong had said earlier, and then says “Yeah okay...”, taking her hand, and leading them through the bar towards one of the empty rooms.

When Wolfsong and Blaire reach the shed, they find the wolves, Glufs and Gralk are resting comfortably. Ikki and Gaatbort keeping a quiet watch.
Blaire proceeds to off her vestments and armor, tossing on a comfortable long shirt from her pack and cuddling in behind the large wolf.

TT will joyfully collapse into a real bed. Bath in the morning before coming down for breakfast.

Very early in the morning, Gralk wakes Blaire as quickly as she can. "Blaire, boss, wake, please, wake."
"Huh?", Blaire wakes groggily. "What's going on?"
"There something big outside. Don't know it is. You look?"
"Yeah," Blaire says, "Yeah, come on Ox. Show us the big thing., Blaire says yawning deeply pulling on her boots and grabbing a dagger.
Blaire, Ox and Gralk make their way quietly out of the shed toward the west clearing.
"Oh, Hello.", the large creature says in a velvet voice as it rises from the ground.
Ox starts to growl but quickly stops when Blaire places a gentle but firm hand on his head.
Blaire wets her lips and fights a yawn and a slight shiver. "Ah, Hi. Sorry, my friend didn't know if something dangerous was about or not."
"Still doesn't.", the confident creature replies.
"Yeah. I guess that's true. You're da leatherwork Saw you briefly yesterday. Didn't we?"
"
At the sound of Blaire leaving Wolfsong's eyes shoot open as he instinctively draws his short sword and begins looking around for any hostile creature nearby. Once he sees there is nothing close Wolfsong cautiously gets to his feet, seeing Blaire, her wolf, and one of the goblins gone Wolfsong leaves the shed.

“Hail, did not expect to see you again so soon,” Wolfsong calls as he gets close, the scars on his bare chest shining silver in the light of dawn. “What brings you here?”
At Wolfsong's greeting, Gralk and Blaire startle a bit and Endure's laughter is rich and genuine in its tone, amused unsurprised.
"Well met, Wolfsong. Your beautiful companions were greeting me as I greet the twilight of dawn."
