Salamandastron: Recreation Room

• -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Salamandastron *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

The recreation room for the army of the Longpatrol. Here soldiers come to

relax after a hard day's work and the officers come for a game of cards or

a quick drink by the fire. The room is quite large, having to deal with a

lot of hares at one time. Along one wall there is a large worktop with

some cuhsioned stools lining one side of it. On the other side of the

worktop there stand many kegs and bottles, lined so that they can be

easily opened by someone standing on the inside of the bar but well out of

reach of the rowdy hares on the other side. There are a few woollen cloths

on the bar and mats in front of each stool. The next thing nearest to the

bar are the round tables, each with 4 chairs around and a lantern in the

middle of each one. There are a couple of slightly larger oval tables with

8 seats around, obviously for larger crowds. The other end of the room is

littered with armchairs, comfortable armchairs, each pair with a small

table in between. The armchairs are near the fire, used to heat the room

and provide extra comfort for the relaxing soldiers.

• -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Quinten is sat in an armchair by the crackling fire, a glass in one paw filled with what looks like pear cordial, he's slumped down looking worn out, eyes half lidded

Ender enters the room and immediately heads for the bar. The hare tending it nods at the

rabbit. "You're a bit early today, aren't you?" The hare asks. Ender shakes his head. "Got a bit of, erm, carving to do. Need something to, erm, calm my nerves. I'll be back later for my midday, erm, drink, eh?" The rabbit peers at the bottles behind the bar, before pointing to an older looking specimen resting towards the back of the shelf.

Gregorian arrives not long after Ender and heads for the bar as well to order himself a drink, his lack of attention to his surroundings meaning he rather misses spotting Quinten on the way, a short nod goes to Ender though.

Quinten sniffs, swollen flat nose twiching, he opens his eyes and smiles at Greg "Gregorian hey there...how are you this morning"

Ender receives his drink and smiles. "Many thanks, erm, sir." He says to the bartender before turning to Greg. "Drinking this early in the, erm, day? Not to good for you, eh?" The rabbit waves his drink as he says this, smiling. He notices Quinte, but chooses not to talk to him.

Gregorian shrugs to the rabbit as he gets his drink "Nothin' tha'll get me drunk, now tha' wouldn't be good for classes, I could say the same thing to you though" an ear turns round as he hears Quinten and looks over, small smile forming "Hey Quint" going over to find a seat near the other hare "Not bad, you?"

Quinten smiles at ender and raises his glass in hell to Ender "Good day to you Mista Ender" he then turns back to greg and leans forwards smiling up at the larger buck and reaching out to squeeze his paw.

Ender nods at both Greg and Quint and watches Greg walk over to where the other hare is sitting. He notices Quinten squeezing Greg's paw. The rabbit looks puzzled and then shakes his head. Walking over, Ender says "So, what have you two, erm, boys been up to, eh?"

Gregorian sits down in a seat next to Quinten's, allowing for the paw squeezing to happen until Ender walks over when both his paws find themselves holding his drink, he shrugs to the rabbit's question "Oh same ol', trainin' most of the time, chores a lot of the rest"

Quinten's ears stand up high, tinging red inside and he shuffles "Uhm not much MIster Ender sah...training, learning...the normal run of the mill things sir"

The rabbit looks at a chair with its back to Greg's. He looks at Quinten, and then back at the chair. He repeats this twice, attempting to get a point across. "Mind if I, erm, join your conversation?"

Gregorian glances to Quinten quickly before looking back to the rabbit and nodding a little "Er, no, go ahead" well would be rude to say he couldn't.

Quinten catches Greg's glance and nods "Of course sir....we we'ren't really talking about much anyway

Akira pokes his head around the corner, instantly smiling at finally seeing some others. Stepping in fully, he looks a little awkward as he starts to speak, "Hi. Sorry, am I =allowed= to be in here...?".

Still looking at the chair, and at Quinten, Ender frowns. "Will you pull that, erm, chair over, young man? I can't just, erm, stand here." He hears a voice over at the door, and sees another rabbit. Oh /no/. Last time a rabbit showed up in this room, it was someone claiming to be his great-grand niece. He didn't need that /now/, or ever. "Allowed to be,

"erm, in here? Depends. Who are you, eh? How'd you get here?"

Quinten puts his glass of cordial down and with a smile for Greg he hops over to pull the chair round and settle it down "tere ye go old chap sir" he then glances at the younger rabbit, smiling at him "Welcome to Salamandastron...don't think we've seen you about before"

Gregorian smiles back at Quint for a moment, just watching before he hears Akira and looks over "Hello" glance going to Ender "Would think 'e's allowed 'ere as much as the rest of us, though Quint's right, 'aven't seen yah about before"

Akira laughs and scratches behind his head, looking down in embarrassment as he replies. "Thanks, If I'm perfectly honest...I'm sort of lost and wandered in. Sorry if I shouldn't have."

Ender sits down, crosses his legs, and sips at his drink. "Ahhh...yes, that's it" he murmurs, before looking back at the other rabbit. "Lost in the mountain or lost on the, erm, shore? What's your name, boy, eh?"

Quinten blinks in surprise "You..wandered in......well thats a feat and a half at least its a rabbit and not say that ravaging horde of murderous vermin out on the shore who strolled past our sentries" he chuckles and shakes his head with a smile moving back to sit down next to Greg.

Gregorian sips his drink while the others talk, nodding a little at times "Better tah be inside than out at the moment I'd say, less of the verminous sorts certainly wot"

Akira starts over, taking the continued conversation as an invite to stay, "Akira," he says as he holds out a paw to Ender- presumably the leader of the three, "I was originally exploring the mountains, though. So cold out there that I welcomed the offer to come inside for a bit..."

Ender smiles at the polite offer, and grasps the paw with his own shaking paw. "I'm glad to meet you, Akira. I'm, erm, Ender. And these are my, erm, friends-" He blushes at this

"-Quinten and Gregorian. They prefer Quin and, erm, Greg, eh?" The elderly rabbit takes another swig from his glass, nearly emptying it.

Quinten grins at the younger rabbit "Come and have a seat, we'll get you a drink and you can tell us all about yourself, we don't get many non hares in the mountain" he gives in and lays his head on Greg's shoulder smiling welcomingly up at rabbit.

Gregorian smiles to the younger rabbit "Nice tah meet yah then and yes, not many beasts about aside from 'ares, except Ender 'ere of course" something getting whispered to Quint out the side of his mouth.

Gregorian whispers, "Public Quinten, there's beasts about" to you.

Akira nods to the two in turn, a flicker of confusion crossing his face at the open affection before he quickly dismisses it as ordinary closeness and smiles, taking a seat close by. "And you both.".

Ender looks at Greg and Quin and his smile fades. He looks confused, and decides to not speak, for now. Finishing his drink, the rabbit smiles. "That's some good hard stuff!" He nods at Akira. "Will you fill this up for me?" He proffers his glass.

Quinten sits up again grimacing and nodding to Greg's whispered words, trying to make it look like he was just whispering something to the other recruit. "Well what would you like to drink Akira?"

Gregorian aside from the whispering seems to have brushed straight past there being a hare ever on his shoulder, leaning back in his chair to sip at his drink, doesn't have much to add to the conversation right now though so doesn't say anything.

Akira smiles brighter at the prospect of a proper drink, quickly stopping himself from being too presumptuous. "What is there you have?" he asks as he looks to the other rabbit's glass, a little worried that he is the one being asked, with no idea of where to do so.

Ender grins at the other rabbit's confusion. "The bartender will give me what I like. Just run it over there, and, erm, grab yourself something..." He stops, thinking. "Ask for a 'Snowy Skeleton' for yourself, eh? Bloody, erm, good." Ender turns to Quinten and Greg. "A secret, eh?"

Quinten looks at Ender puzzled "Wots a secret Ender sir? the contents of the bar is hardly a secret"

Gregorian looks down at his own drink "Hmm, Snowy Skeleton yah say? Can't say I've evah tried tha' one, will 'ave tah remembah it for next time" doesn't seem to have heard the question at all, a look going to the bar then as if he's thinking.

Akira takes the glass and goes up to the bar, glancing back curiously as he gets the older rabbit's glass refilled and his own handed to him. Ears pointed their way the entire time, he comes back and hands the glass to Ender, holding his own in a paw as he grins to the other two, "Don't stop on my account, nothing like snuggling with a partner." he says, winking as he sits down and watches the other rabbit's response carefully- not so sure saying so was a good idea purely to satisfy his curiosity as to whether or not they are.

Nearly spilling his drink, Ender wheels towards the hares. "What?" He says, simply. His paw takes the glass to his mouth, and he drains it at one go, before holding it in his paws, their shaking ceasing. "Snuggling with a partner?"

Quinten chokes at Akira's question, setting off on a coughing fit as some of his drink goes down the wrong way "Wot....wot did you say" he glances at Greg in a near panic, Ender's the last one he wants to ask questions, curse him for messing uo.

Gregorian blinks, his eyes going rather wide and ears shooting up straight, fortunately he's not drinking at the time or he would be choking as well "Certainly not! Don't know wha' yah talkin' about" frowning a little nose twitching, doesn't even look at Quint.

Akira stops himself just before sitting down, a little shocked at the violent reaction that just a few words received. "I'm sorry, I just assumed that... nevermind." he finishes, blushing furiously at the assumption and proceeding to down a good majority of his drink in one also, coughing/choking silently to as not to draw attention.

His ears standing erect, his face still carrying shock, Ender calms a bit. "Why so defensive?" He asks, before grinning. "I'm just, erm, joshing with you lads. You're both, erm, bright young recruits. I'm proud to, erm, see you grow." The alcohol obviously loosening his tongue, Ender smiles, before reducing his friendly expression to a nervous grin, unsure if he should have spoken.

Quinten shifts and throws a guilty glance at Greg not entirely sure how to respond to the rabbit "Err thats good tae know Ender sah...we seem to be coming along pretty ok" he throws an appologetic glance at Akira and waggles his ears

Gregorian doesn't catch Quinten's glance since he seems to be avoiding looking his way, a nod going to Akira "It's alright, easy mistake tah make in some few cases I'm sure"

Akira manages to swallow the offending gulp and offers a guilty smile back to Quinten before repeating himself. "Sorry." he says to the two, still a little suspicious looking at their continued reactions before shrugging it off and smiling again. "You are soldiers then? All of you?"

Ender laughs at this, a disgusting wheezy sound. "Look at me, eh? Do I look like a, erm, soldier?" He frowns. "Ach, you wouldn't know. I'm, erm, a librarian here. And I watch over the younger hares."

Quinten nods "And we're not soldiers just yet, still in training my friend" deciding to ere on the side of caution and drop the topic, he'll appologise to Greg later.

Gregorian nods some sipping at his drink again "Yes, recruits currently, training to be fightahs" seems to be starting to relax again slowly.

Akira nods and takes another sip from his glass, forcing himself not to cough despite obviously needing to, not used to the drink. "How would I go about becoming a recruit, maybe...?" the rabbit says, looking mainly to Quinten as he tilts his head inquisitively.

Ender laughs again, at this. "There's no, erm, chance. Our kind isn't accepted, as far as I've been told. Sad, eh?" He thinks of a...certain young rabbit, and shakes his head. Frowning, he rolls his empty glass between his paws.

Quinten nods in confirmation of Ender's words "Yes i'm afraid...we only take hares into the patrol as far as i know"

Gregorian looks back to the others again the "Hmm, didn't know tha', suppose I'd not 'ad reason to ask it" he glances to Akira "Sorry ol' chap"

Akira frowns and takes another sip, seemingly a little offended. "Any reason why...? If they live here why may they not defend it also?" he says, faltering a little towards the end and blushing as he quickly takes another sip in the hope his question will go unanswered and the topic will move on.

Ender frowns, also. He takes his glass and hurls it into the fire they are sitting next to, enjoying the splintering crash and belch of hot flame as the last bit of alcohol is consumed. "Right. I'll pay for, erm, that." The rabbit stands, and walks towards the bar before stopping and turning. "I did mean what I said, lads."

Quinten jumps as the rabbit hurls the glass into the fire, he stares after elderly rabbit "Mister Ender sah...mean what? you've not said anything..>" he glances at the younger rabbit and smiles appologetically "erm...sorry i am not sure why its only hares...has just always been that way"

Gregorian blinks at the glass hurling, ears once more on alert as he watches the older rabbit with a rather puzzled and surprised look, Quinten says pretty much all that he would though so he just sits there looking slightly worried at Ender.

Akira also flinches at the shatter, watching him get up and walk away with confusion. Leaning over to the other two, he sounds concerned, "Is he alright...?"

Ender pretends to hand something to the bartender before slapping him on the back and laughing about some private joke. He looks back at the group by the fire, and at the door. Sighing, he heads for the door, before wheeling around and looking at the group again.

Quinten watches the odd antics of the rabbit "I'm not sure Akira....friend...." he stands up and walks over to the rabbit "Mister Ender...are you sure your feeling ok? have you been takin your medicine?"

Gregorian is still being puzzled, confused and worried all at once, watching Quinten get up and got over to the older rabbit "Aye, wha's wrong Ender, seemed alrigh' a minute ago.."

( Akira looks a bit nervous as Ender acts oddly. He finishes his drink, and begins to look a bit ill. "I'm sorry, I think I'd better be off." The rabbit gasps out. He throws his glass onto the bar, and rushes from the room. )

The older rabbit nearly whirls around as Akira rushes from the room. He looks at Quinten. "You're one to, erm, talk to me about acting oddly!" His voice is raised. "I'm on my, erm, medicine! Some lovely does serve my every, erm, whim." Spittle flies from his mouth, hitting Quinten sporatically. "Eh, I'm fine. Fine."

Quinten begins to back up away from the rabbit holding up his paws "Ok sah your fine..." he glances at the barstaff who are watching worriedly "Maybe...maybe you should sit down sir? i'll get you another drink"

Gregorian rises from his chair after watching Akira leave, his ears flicking to a slightly odd angle "Er, yes, how about another drink Ender, I'll pay?" hoping to keep him calm or something, maybe at least distracted.

Ender looks at them. "I was, erm, drinking to steady my, erm, paws. Not to get totally,

"erm, erm"-he pauses-"wasted, eh?" The rabbit grins, using that terminology. Pretty cool. He pulls away from Quinten's guiding, and stands at the door. "I need to carve a bit. But I'll do it in, erm, here. I'll be back, eh?"

Quinten watches Ender leave and nods "Yes sir..." with him gone he moves to sit back down next to Greg and hangs his head in his paws "I....am a rightr moron aren't i?"

Gregorian watches the rabbit leave and looks before he looks back to Quinten, looking a little sorry as he sits back down and goes to pat the hare's back lightly, well Ender may have gone but there's still beasts about, barhare for one "No you're not now just calm down"

Quinten sighs and sits back up picking up his pear juice and drinking the rest of it "Sorry greg...guess i was too happy to see you again wot, i don't want to make things awkward like"

Gregorian smiles slightly at him and leans back in his chair "Don't worry about it, I was 'appy tah see yah too, just got tah be more careful round othah beasts"

Quinten nods and smiles "At least that Akira rabbit didn't seem to be bothered about the idea of us...you know being good friends"

Gregorian shrugs lightly and gives a bit of a worried look towards the door "Maybe, yes, Ender doesn't exactly seem too 'appy about the idea"

Quinten glances at the door and nods "I'm noit surprised the crotchety old wind bag would probably complain even if one of us was a doe"

Of course, this is the moment Ender enters. He's carrying a statue about half as long as his arm, and an array of carving implements. "Eh? Wotsat?" He says to Quinten, eyes narrowing. /Ach, being too suspicious/, he thinks. The rabbit plops down in the chair he left and sets out his tools on the table in front of him, carefully standing the wooden bust on the chair's arm.

Gregorian looks to Ender as the rabbit comes back before he sighs slightly and settles back into his chair, Quinten getting a slightly sorry look until Ender is within sight again and he looks to the statue "Wot's tha' yah got there then?"

Quinten smiles and nods "Yes Mister Ender wots that? its pretty impressive looking if i do say so meself" recovering swiftly hoping the rabbit had not heard him

Ender looks angry after Greg speaks. "I'm not an infant, eh? Speak to me with a bit of, erm, respect." He holds up the wooden statue, which portrays a female hare's head, and a bit of her shoulders for a base. No detail is present, except the ears.

Gregorian's ears move slightly uncomfortably and he nods one to the rabbit "Sorry sah, no disrespect intended sah"

Quinten looks up at the statuea nd smiles "It looks good sah...so far would you care for another drink?"

Ender shakes his head and picks up the wood, and begins to carve around the top of the head, very slowly and carefully, trying to keep the ears firmly attached.

Gregorian gives Quinten a very quick look before he looks back to the statue, keeping rather quiet and watching since Ender seems to be concentrating.

Quinten picks up his drink and stays quiet as well, not wanting to upset ender so he ruins the carving he saw what happened last time ender carved an ear off"

Ender stops for a moment and looks at the hares. "I didn't mean to make you, erm, stop talking, eh? Go right, erm, ahead."

Gregorian looks back to Quinten again "Er...need another drink?" mind completely blank of things to say.

Quinten smiles at the other buck and nods "SUre i won't say no to a drink, especially if i'm not payin"

Ender continues to carve, his breath erratic from the concentration. His eyes flick upwards every few moments as he works.

Gregorian smiles and finishes off his drink before getting up, a glance going to Quinten again "What'll yah 'ave?"

Quinten hmms and glances at the bar "Another pear cordial will do me fine Greg d..." he catches himself before calling him "dear" and manages to change what he was going to say "do me fine that will"

Gregorian smirks slightly and nods once before heading to the bar to get the drinks, returning shortly and going to hand Quint's over to him.

Quinten smiles nad accepts the drink" Thats Greg" he glances at the carving again watching the rabit carve it "I wonder where he's going to put it"

Ender looks up. "It is, erm, a gift. For a wonderful lady." He returns to carving, smiling a bit, now.

Gregorian sits back down and looks faintly surprised at Ender "A lady friend? Well I'm sure it would be an excellent gift for them Ender sah"

Quinten smiles at Ender "Well that will definatly be a very nice present Mister Ender sir"

Ender smirks, raising one side of his mouth. "I thought so, eh?"

Gregorian smiles and sips at his drink "Anyone we might know?"

Quinten's ears perk forwards "Oh yes sah..whose the lucky lass?"

Ender looks at Greg and grins. "Maybe." He sets the carving down, only having been working for a few minutes. "I think my drink was a bit strong..." He mutters. His paws barely set the knife down when his head sags, and he begins to snore.

Gregorian blinks as he watches the rabbit fall asleep, a glance going back to Quinten "Well he's good at falling asleep certainly"

Quinten laughs softly and nods standing up "Aye that he is...mebbe we should slip out, let him sleep in peace?" he offers greg his paw and smiles

Gregorian smiles some as well, putting his drink on the table before giving a glance to the barhare to make sure he's busy and not looking before he takes Quinten's offered paw and stands up as well "Probably a good idea, wouldn't want to disturb the ol' chap"

Gregorian has accepted to ride with you.

Quinten grins happily and starts for the door, he knows a nice quiet place where no one will distrub them

Gregorian lets himself be lead out after the other buck, smiling somewhat.

Quinten leaves with: Gregorian

Salamandastron: Badger Lord's Room

• -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Salamandastron *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

The chamber you step into looks as if it was clawed into the very rock of

the mountain. A high, craggy celing and bare walls give the room a

decidely spartan look, fitting of a warrior. The bed is actually a large

stone slab, heavily strew with large pillows, big enough to accommodate

the Badger Lord Bludstripe and his wife, the Lady Stormstripe. A table

sits on one side of the room, a circular oak affair surrounded by four

large chairs. On the same side is a large fireplace, over which are two

sets of wall hanging hooks, most likely for the rulers weapontry. On the

remaing side is a large window hacked from the stone, facing out over the

endless expanses of sand and sea, a portal for the Lord to watch over his

domain.

• -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Quinten pushes open the large door to the badger lords suite of rooms, once he's inside he motions you to come inside too.

Gregorian looks slightly apprehensive about going in this room but follows, looking about a little nervously "Is it alright to be in here?"

Quinten shoves the door closed and grins at you, he hops close and wraps his arms around your neck "Nope we'll probably get shouted at but no one ever comes in here" he pooitns at all the dust "So tis safe...sorry bout earlier"

Gregorian smiles and moves his arms loosely around the other buck "Don't worry about it, was bound to happen sooner or later, least I think we threw them off again"

Quinten smiles and nods "Yes i think we both acted with enough shock and outrage to put them off" he leans up and smiles kissing the other buck "Its nice to see you again Greg, been a few days"

Gregorian kisses him back a little and rests his head on the little hare's "Sorry if I sounded too outraged or anythin' and it 'as, good tah see yah as well Quint"

Quinten chuckles and noses the larger bucks neck fur "Its ok Greg..i know...your still not happy with the idea of well us.."

Gregorian smiles slightly and sighs, not a particularly unhappy one though "It could 'ave been a bit of an automatic thin', I'm gettin' bettah though"

Quinten smiles and kisses his neck fur then untangles his arms from him, he turns about and leans back resting against him, tilting his head back top smile up "Well i forgive ye, but we got to be careful if Ender finds out...he'll tell Colonel Zoe and if she finds out...i heard she doesn't like it at all"

Gregorian lets him move and settle back down before wrapping his arms back round the buck, he sighs and nods a little "Always goin' tah be a problem" he smiles slightly and aims a kiss between Quint's ears "We'll find a way I suppose"

Quinten nods and grins "Can keep it a secret...you can be my secret beau"

Gregorian smirks a little "Secret beau? Nevah been one of them before"

Quinten chucklesa nd takes your paw in mine and kisses the back of it "Will be my honour to uphold your dignity and safety at home and in battle"

Gregorian chuckles and grins a little, leaning down to nuzzle at his cheek "You're a very odd hare"

Quinten laughs and bounces away from you "I'm one of three you know"

Gregorian gives him a puzzled look, head tilting "One of three?"

Quinten nods and hops back "remember i said my sis died? well there was a brother two, i was the youngest but we were all born the same day"

Gregorian smirks at him "Coincidence indeed, me sisah's me twin, what 'appened tah your brothah then...if yah don't mind me askin'"

Quinten moves over and hugs you "Died...of a fever last winter"

Gregorian hugs the little buck back once more "Sorry Quint...again"

Quinten kisses greg "Its ok Gregorian i'm...used to being alone now"

Gregorian kisses him back lightly and gives him a little squeeze "Well yah're not alone, not now anyway"

Quinten grins and squeezes back "True i got you"

Gregorian smiles and grins a little "Well at least I'm somethin' anyway"

Quinten chuckles and nods kissing Greg again "yer more then just somethin...yer gave me ope that i'm not alone."

Gregorian kisses him back and chuckles lightly "You're in a mountain full of hares, somehow I think yah'd 'ave more problems bein' alone than not"

Quinten smiles and nods "Well i guess we should head back out...before people start to wonder werre we run off to"

Gregorian smirks a little and nods "Might be best, don't want any of them tah come lookin'"

Quinten nods and heaves the heavy door open again and ducks on out side again.

Salamandastron: Caverns - Boxing Chamber

• -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Salamandastron *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

This room obviously has a rather singular purpose, and that purpose is not hard to discern, if one was only to look around. There is only about ten or fifteen feets worth of space in which to walk, around the perimeter, and the reason for this is that the rest of the space in the room is taken up by a slightly elevated fighting ring. The platform is about two feet above the floor, and upon each corner of the square platform there is a wooden post. Encircling the ring in are lengths of rope extending from each post. The floor of the platform is somewhat giving, as it is in someway padded. So far as the perimeter of the room, chin-up bars attached to the walls are staggered with benches, from which creatures can watch the fights.

• -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

With:

[IC] No longer a runt, it's (Terrance)

Quinten arrives with: Gregorian

Terrance is in the middle of a target bashing session, his paws wrapped in gauze as normal whilst practicing.

Gregorian walks into the room smiling some still, glance going to Terrance on the way and he gives a nod "Hello" going to fetch himself some gauze to wrap his paws in as well.

Quinten pads into the room a short time after Greg, having loitered in the corridor for a bit before hand, he waves hello to you both "Hey Terr, Greg" he moves towards you both, ignoring the gauze and pulling out the gloves Sorrel gave him to wear whilst boxing"

Terrance looks to Greg and nods, "Afternoon chap" he returns, glancing to quinten and then going back to his dummy bashing

Gregorian looks up briefly from his paw wrapping to Quinten "Mind your nose" he says before glancing to Terrance again, trying to think of more to say.

Quinten raises a paw to touch his nose gently nad nods "oh don't worry...tis already broken i don't want it damaged beyond repair"

Terrance throws a series of hooks and jabs at the dummy, letting the two others talk

Gregorian smiles slightly and finishes up wrapping his paws before going to one of the bars and starting some chin ups "Just mind yah don't"

Quinten nods "I won't wouldn't want you to have to put up starring at me with a flat nose" he secures the straps around his wrists holding his gloves in place and moves over to a puncing bag, he crouches down, lifting his paws up before his muzzle and starts laying into it

Terrance grunts a bit and says, "I don't know. Might suit you" while continuing his practice ducking a couple of times as he punches out.

Gregorian glances to Terrance and then back to Quint in between pulling himself up on the bar "Hmm, little too painful and permanent to find out I think, look nice enough as yah are anyway" small smirk formed.

Quinten grins and ducks lashing out with his left foot paw to kick the bag away before laying into it with his right paw "Thank you Greg i'll leave it as it is then"

Terrance flicks an ear a bit as he practices, shaking his head a little.

Gregorian doesn't make anymore comments, just raises up and down on the bar, pausing every so often for a short rest before he continues.

Quinten carries on as he was, bobbing and weaving, ducking and dodging, the solid thump of his paws connecting with the punching bag "So Terr...you heard anymore news on the exams?"

Terrance shakes his head, "No, not yet. I think it's supposed to be sometime this week though. I hear Dandelion's going to be taking it as well."

Gregorian nods a little "Aye, remembah Quint convincin' 'im to, sure they'll pass well and all wot"

Quinten grins and thumps at the bag with his left leg "I just told him he should go for it, he's been here longer en me and the Major's letting me put in for it"

Terrance just continues on with his practicing.

Gregorian hangs off the bar for a moment before dropping down to the ground "If anybeasts done half as much work they'll probably pass fine"

Quinten grins at Greg "I stil think Greg should try and make Private"

Terrance keeps punching and says, "Well to get into the patrol you have to be noticed by your instructors first. They make the selections on who takes the final exam unlike the test for Recruit First Class."

Gregorian looks over to Terrance again "Hmm, that the way it works then? Well I was sure I wasn't ready anyway, not been here nearly long enough"

Quinten nods and stills the bag with a paw "Ahhh well i'm sure Greg will get noticed soon he's rather good at what he does"

Terrance nods and says, "Aye, that's the way that I understand it works."

Gregorian shrugs once "Oh well, more time to practice as a recruit then"

Quinten nods leaning against the punching bag "I guess so"

Terrance keeps punching at the dummy, working up a bit of a sweat. "Yup."

Quinten hops away from the bunching bag and moves out to a clear space on a mat, he begins to duck and weave, swaying and bobbing from side to side, boxing and kicking at his shadow

Gregorian looks over and watches Quinten for a moment, a small smirk formed before he takes to the bar once more, pulling himself up again.

Quinten grins over at greg and begins to dart from side to side, throwing himseign into the challenge of bobbing and weavbing, ducking nad dodging, paws flashing as he punches at is shadow, footpaws flicking from side to side as he moves

Terrance pauses and leans with his back against the dummy, wiping his brow with his paw as he catches his breath a little

Gregorian pauses and shakes his head a little, chuckling at Quint "Shadow nevah does stand a chance does it?"

Quinten grins and dodges left then right then throws himself at Greg wrapping his paws around his waist and grinning "Nopee an neither do you ol chum"

Terrance goes back to punching at the dummy, glancing at the two others out of the corner of his eye every now and again.

Gregorian blinks, insides of his ears turning red as he suddenly has a hare round his waist "Quint...what did I say earlier?"

Quinten jabs Greg playfully in the stomach and hops back out of reach, bobbing back paws flicking left and right playfully "Ahhh wot that you could best me ina boxing match aye dinnae think so Greg"

Terrance gives once last punch that shakes the dummy on its stand and gives a silent wave before heading out.

Gregorian smirks at Quint "Right, tha's what I said" watching Terrance go before he looks back to Quinten "You're so going to get us in trouble" smirk remains still.

Quinten grins and now that the room is empty bounces back to kiss the other buck "Sorry...aye'm just exciteable, me mother always balmed it on me height"

Gregorian kisses him back and grins "I can probably agree with tha', bouncin' all ovah the place, goin' tah give us away"

Quinten Smiles and tucks his arms around your waist "Then i promise no more bouncing when others are about"

Gregorian leans down to give him another kiss "Might be best if we don't want them guessin' anythin', or at least knowin' anyway"

Quinten nods and smiles "Ya let them guess away, as long as we don't give them any real proof, in fact i should probably not bounce about you so often

Gregorian smiles and chuckles some "Well, not in public anyway maybe"

Quinten nods and kisses you again before bouncing towards the door "Well i'm gonna duck out Greg i'm on Kitchen duty in twenty mins need to change and grab a bite to eat, see you later"
