An expedition with the "Seagull"

[The_Muffin_Man]

Searos eyes the triton suspiciously but pulls out his lock picks anyway. "I still don't like any of this, you know. Just doesn't smell right. Of course that could be Muscles here I smell... you and salt water are not a good combination."

(Do I need to roll to open the locks or can I just try until I get it? Perhaps with colorful cursing involved.)

[Robbo]

Gunter sniffs around himself and looks hurt. "I guess you're right. I could use a bath and some rest too. I can look after the camp since we can't bring the mules down here. We can try those caves tomorrow. We came all the way out here...it would be nice to not go back empty handed."

[Breila]

"There is no safe space here on the beach" Kim reminds the others. "Remember how high the floodline is? The closest spot where one could spread out a bedroll is the junction of the paths, and the closest comfortable space the cavern Henry slept in. I will go up for the night with Gunter. Someone should look after the mules, too. They were entrusted to us."

It is now late afternoon, sunset is about four hours away, the tide begins to come in again.

(OOC @Muffin Man: If you have the time, roll for open locks until you're successful, and give us a taste of Searos's colourful foul mouth)

Searos has the triton prop her leg up so he can work on the shackle. He carefully selects a couple of picks and bends over shackle to open it up.

"Alright you little bastard, lets you and me get real comfortable with another..."

(ooc: believe it or not, I think I got it the first time. http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3738125/ Needed a 45 and got exactly 45)

"Of course, you are correct Kim, I only suggested staying to protect Shaesea, but I would like to rest in the tent." Turning to the Trition she smiles at Searos's language, "Well done Master Searos, I knew you could do it."

"Will you be safe out to sea, from the Cats? And will you meet us here tomorrow morning?" She asks, leaning on a rock, "A Bath Gunter? You do not smell too bad to me." She says with a wink.

[Robbo]

Gunter blushes a little and mumbles something about hygiene.

[Breila]

"Well no, I wouldn't be safe here" Sharsea shakes her head. "The sea cats will return by nightfall, to care for their young, and they would hunt me. So I guess you will have to help me up the cliff."

"She can sleep in the cave where I was" Henry offers. "The most difficult part of the path is further up."

[Jenara]

"Hence my question." Brax replies stamping her feet. "I will help, if you help me. My wounds are still quite severe."

"Henry, you can share one of our tents now Amon has departed us." shaking off the thought of the mage she offers the Princess her hand. "How big are the baby sea cats? And can you suggest a way to deal with them? Do your people have any issues if we eradicate them completely?" she gives Gunter another wink, brushing his arm lightly. "Shall we?" she asks.

[Robbo]

Gunter sizes up the triton.

"If someone could haul the rest of my gear, I can certainly help her up the cliff on my back."

[Breila]

"Wait a moment, I have forgotten something important" Shearsea says when Brax offers her hand and Gunter his help. She walks over to Searos. "Your dark-skinned friend has distracted me, I forgot to thank you" she says, planting herself in front of the man. Looking closely, she aims for a stubble-fee spot on the cheeks and plants a firm smack. "Here you are, thank you very much" she says with a most radiant smile, her lithe, mostly naked body just inches from him.

(Of course, what she says is mostly unintelligible to Searos, who does not speak elven)

[The_Muffin_Man]

Searos attempts to back away slowly from teh triton having no idea what it is she is up to. He visibly flinches as she leans in and then has the most confused look on his face when she kisses him. He looks at the rest of the group before saying "Will someone please tell me what in the hells just happened?" He then looks down at her body letting his eyes linger for far too long. "Or maybe I don't really care..."

[Robbo]

"Good thing you were on the beach working on your tan while i was wading out there to cut her free!" Gunter laughs and gives Searos a heavy clap on the back.

"I think she likes you...want me to sleep outside of the tent tonight?"

[Breila]

Oblivious to her impression on the men, Shearsea walks back to Brax and takes her hand if it is still offered. "You were asking about the baby sea cats. Well, they are very small. Their eyes are just beginning to open, and the mother feeds them with this" she cups one of her small breasts. "I would not mind if you killed all of them, they hurt me. Almost as bad as they hurt you" she adds, eying Brax's wounds. "At first I was happy when the ugly woman came, because she took me from the sea cats and healed me. But then she told me she would kill me if I didn't deliver food to her and her pets" she shudders.

[Jenara]

"You could share mine, if you want?" She says laughing at Searos's reaction she shoots Gunter a wink.

"Shearsea has no love for the baby creatures that live below, I would be happy to kill them, unless anyone objects?" She says to the group, leading the Trition away from the water.

"These wounds were my foolishness, I went without Armor, weapons, I made massive mistake." Brax says with a hurt look, "You could come to our tents, Gunter would carry you." She says smiling finally.

Searos shakes his head a bit. "Why is the world suddenly crazier than usual?"
