Cha0s Gaming - Ravenhold Square

{Shad sits by a tree, and Oz is weaving a flower crown for him.} Still don’t see why I gotta wear a *flower* one…

Because flowers are sweet and I like them. {He’s silent for a moment. Then adds:} And because they look nice with your scales.

{The slightest hint of a blush can be seen upon the Dragonborn’s face. Strategically, he covers his face with an arm. Making it look like he’s blocking the light form a nearby lamppost.} What if I had pollen allergies?

You don’t.

Yeah, but what if I did?

…you don’t, though.

*reading on a bench nearby*

{He chuckles at Oz’s innocence. While also catching a familiar scent upon the wind.} You funny, Chef. {He says while glancing around; to find the source. When he finally sees Lily he gets up and walks over.} Hey there, girl who’s eye I poked out.

*stares a moment*....Lily. My name is Lily. And hello to you too, Shad

Oh… {Glances off to the side.} Still sorry about that, by the way. {Awkwardly rubs the back of his neck.} Was stupid to throw it.

Hey, I got it back. No harm done

{Oz lumbers up behind Shadzaar; towering over even he. But despite his… girth, he daintily sets a flower crown upon the Dragonborn’s horns. Silently declaring him the Lord of his Heart.}

Still… {He idly adjusts the crown. To keep it from silly off, of course.} What’s that you’re reading? {He pints a claw to the book.}

It's about Wild Magic...Learning how I can better control my orb powers I got from my Dad....It's...still a work in progress...

{Sits on the ground next to the bench. Taking the Lotus Position.} How is that going? {He asks after getting comfortable.}

I was gonna ask that…

00:15

{He sits next to Lily. Making sure to put a respectable distance between them.}

{Oz rests his chin on Shad’s thigh.}

Not so good...*hangs head in sadness* Every time I think I have it figured out, something goes horribly wrong...I'm like an unstable arcane force and it's frustrating....

Shit… I can’t help you with that… {He idly scratches one of the Giff’s ears; looking up at the stars.}

…while I do not have experience similar to yours, it sounds close to my emotional issues. {He speaks with his eyes closed. Enjoying Shad’s touch.} My meditation routine helps with that. Perhaps… it could maybe assist to a degree with your issues?

Meditation?...Never tried that...

{His honey eyes open. Looking up at, her he hums.} I will show you my methods, if you wish.

Please do, maybe it'll work

Okay— {He sits straighter and no longer leans onto Shad. Whom makes a face after Oz’s warmth leaves his leg.} The first step is to find a position that is comfortable. {He gestures to his own position: cross-legged and arms resting against his thighs.}

*copies his position* Like that?

{He examines her form closely.} Hmm… straighten your back just a little bit more.

*does so* Okay

Now the second step is to breathe; deeply. {His broad chest expands as he does so himself.} Then, release that breath and let out any negative energy, or mental clutter. {He deflates.} My brothers and sisters at the Monastery typically do this 500 times. But I only do it until I feel lighter.

*following his advice, attempts to take deep breaths*

Da, like that. {He nods encouragingly.} Now my favourite part: the “Mantra of Enlightenment”, as the prelate of my Monastery calls it. {He closes his eyes.} Repeat after me… {He begins chanting the words slowly, so that she can familiarise herself with them.}

*repeating him as bes she can. she really wants this to work*

Since there is a correlation between pairs of three, and luck, I always cite the words three times.

{Snoring softly.}

{Smacks Shad on the leg. Effectively jolting him awake.} Do not sleep on the benches. You will have a sore neck.

Damn… {He rubs the impact spot.} You and them big ass hands…

*jolts out of her trance* Huh?! What?!

Ah, my apologies. Shadzaar was sleeping at an odd angle.

00:45

How do you feel now?

...Better? I don't know...Maybe I just neeed to do it more often?

Da, it will yield better results over time. {He gets to his feet.} My apologies, but we have plans to get drinks at Milo’s tonight. Unless you’d like to join us?

Oh yeah… Forgot about that. {He gets up as well.}

Who's Milo?

He is the cities’ Baker. {Dusts off his trousers.} Formerly a member of the Guild we ourselves are a part of.

Oh. Well I'd love to join you

Excellent. This way. {Himself and Shad walk lead the way.}
