WHO: Taas + Open
WHAT: Taas deals with Stuff™ and Things©
WHEN: Backdated to after the dragon fight.
WHERE: Outside the Gallows, the docks, etc.
NOTES: Very mild gore vaguely described.

He was lopsided. That was what bothered him the most, really. It made his neck ache after a while and Taas knew he should make a decision wether he should cut the other horn as well or find a cap to balance it out. He wasn't sure why he was stalling, really. The other wounds were fine and had been looked over and healed, bruises and cuts a memory and his split ear neatly trimmed so it didn't wiggle like a badly cut piece of meat when he walked.

All in all, it didn't bother him. So why was he so hesitant about it?

The warrior sighs, rubbing his sore neck a bit as he heads for the training grounds haphazardly put up outside the Gallows, mace at his shoulder and a thoughtful look on his face. He should be resting, he knows. They just got back. He shouldn't be pushing himself in case something tore open or his horn core started bleeding again. Taas usually listened. He was a good soldier.

...right now he was just too damn antsy to rest.

(Maybe, just maybe it had something to do with the dragon's tooth in his pack.)

"You don't say," he teases lightly. There were a few others that got dragon happy, but it didn't pass notice that their horned friends really a thing for the large winged creatures. "Yeah, you certainly took a hit in that fight." A broken horn, a concussion... "You can imagine why I'm a bit concerned that you aren't taking it easy." Course they used magic to heal any of the major things up, but the body still needed time.

At Taas's pause, Sam paused as well, watching curiously when he started fishing around in the pack. The tooth he recognizes immediately considering despite injuries Taas had made a point to harvest some. So he had put them on a chain-? The explanation that goes follows has the mage making a slight 'ah' sound of understanding under his breath.

"You'll run head long into a dragon, but giving a gift to Cyril makes you nervous." He finds that a bit amusing, but does understand the feeling. "I take it the tooth is more then a gift?"
