Early Morning

((OOC: Because I suxx0rz, I'm copying Renn's post, modifying it only slightly for my own writing style. Oh, and, um, warnings for virgin eyes or something. Eek!))

I like cities best.

The countryside is all well and good, but nothing feels better than waking up in a real bed with the sound of people all around you... Granted, right now there's not much of anything to hear besides Renn's breathing, but that's nice too.

I've come to like waking up beside him. Or beneath him sometimes; for all that he's not so tall for a human male, he weighs a few stone more than is comfortable to have as a blanket. Warm though, that I'll give him.

I wish I could go back to sleep... Och, it's not even a decent time to be up! Morning light (or, even better, noon light) is yellow or orange, not gray! ...that could just be the quality of the windows in this place though. Ah well, back to thinking.

At least life is interesting. Strange, trying, frustrating, dangerous... But always interesting. And that's why I'm here, aye? That first adventure - stupid, but amusing. And rewarding. And thus far... well, I always did want to visit distant lands.

And at least I've got no set agenda. Tyllir's pissing in the wind if she's hoping for a quick trip back so she can finish her year. But why would she want that anyway? She seems so fascinated with everything... A year's hardly enough to take it all in. Then again, she did seem quite happy to take on this new adventure.... I don't get Hinru. I don't expect anyone else does either, including her guardian.

The ranger... Niamh. Niiiaaaamh. Didn't she used to pronounce it different? Who knows with elves. They probably change their names every century or so, just for kicks. Anyway, she's probably the least annoying of the lot, even if she was a piss-poor ranger to begin with. Mayhap she just needed to find her... her what? Ach, too early to think so much.... Mm. Hang on... Don't I remember her having a beau back in elf-country? She's been shining the tops of her boots with her tongue, looking after that half-elf boy.... Probably just as well though. The half-elf's in reach while fairy-boy is who knows how far off...

Speaking of women, Jovvi's not nearly so tetchy any longer. Almost have half-decent conversations with her if I don't think about it too much. I'm even a bit grateful to her... Without her we wouldn't be here, after all. Probably slogging along on some third-rate adventure hoping for something interesting to come along.... Yondalla forbid!

Renn's sleeping still... Huh. I never get to see him sleep. Like a steel trap, he is, not wanting anyone to see what's he's got. Wakes up every time I get up to take a piss, waits 'til I come back, still awake when I drift off...

....I wonder what happens if I do this? --Amazing; he sleeps still. What about... Aaah, there we are.....

If I'm going to be up this early, at least I'll be constructive with my time.
