Deryk shakes his head, " Imma drop of this Golem at the Blacksmith, if you want to order anything at the tavern just ask the animated suit of armor. "

"Ok...If it starts lookin' hairy feel free to call me. I will help fight." She will give you a hug and make her way to the Inn and take a nap in her room as the lethargy kicks in (She still hasn't had a full rest since the Trial)

Rubies wakes up after 8 hours, and begins getting herself ready (and a little dressed up) for the dinner with Mr. Jorpip. She walks down to the bar wearing an emerald green cocktail dress with matching 4 inch, open-toed heels, very light make up on her panther face. Her accessories sparkle with rubies, and a mini-purse. She looks to Gust, Deryk, Kreios, and Riddle "So... what do you think? Is it too much for a thank you dinner?" her voice a little insecure sounding

" The man is coming in for Grub, I don't think it's a date. Knowing him he'll dress fancy but not too fancy. " Deryk says handing some glasses to the Animated armor to wash

“I am aware of that, I just thought this is a little more formal than just a dinner with friends. I barely know the man and he saw me looking like a hot mess. I might as well try and look a little more fancy.”

“And trust me if it were a date it would put more effort in. This is just a casual want to feel pretty look.”

Deryk shrugs, " Ted. " The Animated armor turns and salutes, " Try to hold down the fort and I'll try to keep out of sight of Jorpip. " With a nod Ted stands at the Bar while Deryk goes off to the kitchen

Rubies waits for Jorpip on a barstool

Jorpip enters at precisely 12, spots Ted and grumbles a bit but waves at him, Ted waves back excitedly. Jorpip is wearing just some normal everyday clothes, " So I took you up on that offer because free is good and better if it's food. "

“Well I’m glad you took my offer. Please sit and join me at the bar? Have anything you’d like to drink?”

Jorpip waves off the question as Ted brings a glass of water, " My creation knows. "

“I’m sorry. (To the Animated Armor) I’ll have an Apple-tini.”

“So what was the big project you were working on. Sounded very important.”

Ted nods going off to the kitchen where Deryk has his hand sticking out the door holding an Apple-Tini

Rubies will be slowly sipping on her Apple-tini. “What’s your plan for dinner between the two of us? Also, if you don’t mind me asking...why such distaste towards Deryk? I have heard his side more or less; however I want to here yours? I apologize if it’s a sore subject, but I am curious.”

Rubies will be slowly sipping on her Apple-tini. “What’s your plan for dinner between the two of us? Also, if you don’t mind me asking...why such distaste towards Deryk? I have heard his side more or less; however I want to here yours? I apologize if it’s a sore subject, but I am curious.” 

 Jorpip sighs, " Have you seen him, he is smart, not so clumsy, kinda strange at times. And yet he somehow manages spill some drinks on the most important papers in my household. Those papers could've changed the world for the better and we discussed it together. He seemed intrigued, but eventually he started recommending against it. Once we finished making Ted he conveniently spilled his drink on those papers. Accident or no, have you noticed how he talks to himself sometimes. It's as if he isn't just one person, he talks sanely to himself, it's as if he is one of many. I have my own thoughts, and that thought is he didn't come to this town just to start a tavern. " Jorpip stops and just looks at Ted, " Wonderful, it's so nice to see that suit of armor again. The blacksmith has some skill to create such an intricate suit. "

“I have noticed him talking to himself a little; however, I believe all of us do that at sometime. Now I do deeply apologize for his actions, but I believe that you both could civil come to a solution where this awkward tension isn’t present. (Telepathically) I know what it is like to have life changing stuff be stripped away; but, what is the justice of punishing people who, whether innocently or maliciously, acted because of protective instincts. Besides you and him must have been friendly prior to this even. I know that he’s taking this much harder than you think he is and probably could use someone who knows him better to help him through his psychotic/mental issue. (Back in vocal) Well I’m famished, what are you in the mood to eat?”

Jorpip sighs thinking about what Rubies said, " I'll see what I can do about undoing the restraining order and I guess we can work from there. As for what I want to eat. " Jorpip chuckles a bit, " This place has become rather famous for its Dragon Burgers. "

“(Telepathically) Even if you don’t initiate the steps to reform your friendship, at least consider it. Speaking from someone who has had no friends and very little time to talk with family, being alone is rough and issues don’t resolve as clean as one wishes. (In speaking) Excuse me as I powder my nose.”
