WHO: Kain, Inessa, Kattrin, James, and Samouel (and a couple of mabaris!)
WHAT: Kain gets revenge on a dragon at long last
WHEN: End of the month
WHERE: Vimmark mountains, far from any settlements
NOTES: Fighting

While exploring the surroundings areas after arriving at Kirkwall, Kain encountered a High Dragon sometime in the beginning of May. He tried to take it on himself, failed, and spent May in a painful recovery. Now he’s out for revenge, so he's taken a team along to slay this dragon… Given how dangerous dragons are, it’s not good to risk it ever leaving the mountains and coming any closer to Kirkwall itself. So Kain has gotten the ok to go ahead with this whole thing.

sorry for the interruption you lovebirds...

Kattrin could see they were, well, busy. But there were others around and she'd come to offer food and water. So with a brow lifted, she waited a moment before clearing her throat.

"When your mouths are ready for more than each other, I have food and drink."

Good thing she'd made sure to bring plenty with her supplies.

AHAHAHA totally fine!

Kain is so lost in the moment, so wrapped up in the euphoria from the dragon battle that he isn't thinking clearly. He blinks, staring at Inessa in a new way, as if he'd never seen her before. She's still the same person, of course, but something has changed now, hasn't it? What he's done, he's... pushed some sort of boundary now, hasn't he?

There's no time to think about it. Kattrin's distraction comes at a good time. He's not too sure what to say right now, anyway. He doesn't want to potentially ruin things (had he already?)

"I, uh... Yes." He clears his throat anxiously. "That is, yes. I'd like something. That was an intense battle." And he still feels incredible from it, despite how drained he is at the same time.

thanks for not alerting me, DW

Wrapped up in her own breathless haze, Inessa is likewise speechless at first. How is she supposed to respond to a sudden (but not that sudden) kiss. Her gaze is anxious, questioning...and then Kattrin's voice sinks in and her cheeks rapidly grow pink. It's not like her to forget decorum, and with the attention of others she scrambles to reclaim it. Clearing her throat, she takes a step back and averts her gaze from the Avvar woman. If she can look her in the eyes, it won't be any time soon.

"I...yes, of course. My thanks."

[theexile]

"Yes. Quite...intense."

She lifts a brow at them like a healer looking on a pair of teenagers with amusement. Each of them is given a cup with water as well as a bowl with some soup in it. Rich with meat and vegetables that Kattrin has been storing in her things so she'll be ready for travel. Like now.

"How are your injuries?"

Kain’s face turns bright red for a bit. If it weren’t for the whole dragon slaying moment, Kain would never consider doing this, and least of all in front of everyone else. It’s only now sinking in a little, what he’s just done, and what it implies. But what does Inessa think about that? Was she just swept up in the moment? He’s a bit worried now, and not able to just outright ask here and now if he’s done the right thing. What if she rejects him?

He takes the offered cup and bowl, realizing just how famished he feels. Dragon-slaying is also very hard work.

“I don’t feel too bad at the moment. A little bit of soreness… but this is nothing, compared to last time.” His choice of specialization admittedly gives him a high pain tolerance, though.
