Ohu sighs happily as he drops a bag of groceries on the counter and begins to unpack it.

"Well! That was quite an adventure retrieving groceries, was it not, Syd?" He smiles to his shopping companion. "Purchasing groceries doesn't always involve armed robbers in the store, nor a naked prophet running through the streets, nearly causing accidents, to warn us of a 'clothing armadeggon.'" He grins. "I suppose we are just lucky. Though he seemed to be unaware that Armageddon isn't an event, but a location..."

	"It was," she agreed as put the last of many bags from the van on the counter. She spent almost every moment of the adventure trying to explain to Ohu that they didn't need as much junk food as he thought they did. "Thank you again for your help." Though Syd and Ohu definitely had different ideas of what help was. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"I love to help!" Ohu agrees, pulling bags of marshmallows out from the bag to find a place for them in the kitchen. He pauses, opens one of the bags, and helps himself to a marshmallow before continuing to unpack the groceries. "I mmph rrr mrr a grr hrr." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"What was that? Didn't quite catch that." Syd started pulling items from the bag. Almost nothing but junk food. Chips, pretzels, chocolate, red licorice, and it went on. She sighed and figured next time she'd have to go alone or take someone not Ohu with her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ohu swallows the marshmallow. "I said, I thought you were a great hero, during these adventures. I think there will be stories told of you." Oooh! Potato chips! He should make sure they're good before he puts them away. crunch crunch (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Syd chuckled. "Thanks. It's not often I get to be the hero. The damsel in distress is usually more like it." Syd looked at all the bags. There had to be an easier way to do this than daily trips to the grocery store. First thing she was going to do when they were done was research delivery options. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Speaking of distress..." says a voice behind them, which belongs to a man -- or rather, man-shaped person -- at the kitchen table ostensibly reading a newspaper. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Aridis is giggling just a little as she enters the kitchen. She glances between Ohu and Syd with a smile.

"Dist thou know that mine brother is teaching friend Griffen how to fight? It was...most strange to see. But I have never seen someone drop like that after just a day of what mine brother calls light training." When she notices the other god her curiosity over the mortal in the living room leaves her.

Who is this stranger? She gives him a long hard look. Nope. No idea still.

	Ohu stops, frozen, a pork rind halfway to his mouth. And then he ducks under the counter, to hide from the figure at the table. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"ARGH!" Syd yelled at the sudden appearance of a stranger in the kitchen. She dropped the six pack of bottles of root beer on the floor. A few bottles broke and root beer spread across the floor. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"My apologies, ladies," Anansi says as he looks up from the newspaper -- not with any real startling at the crash-- and rolls it up, holding it in his left hand and tapping his right palm with it. "Ohu Amane, what do you think you are doing?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ohu_amane 2009-08-17 10:56 pm UTC (link)
	"Ohu Amane?" Ohu's voice comes up from behind the counter. "I do not know who you're talking about! I... am... the lizard-monster Quaqway! With huge, gnashing teeth! Best to leave before you anger me!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Aridis would have said he was hiding under a table. But the last time she said such a sarcastic thing her Lady Mother turned her over her knee. Well, she had been six at a time. Speaking like that would be rude and it was not their way to step into family affairs unless they were asked to help mediate.

"None are needed, Lord. All are welcome here. Might I fetch thee a drink?"

	"No offense, but who are you?" Syd asked, ignoring the root beer for the moment. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ohu peers out from behind the counter. "...are they gone?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2009-08-18 05:49 am UTC (link)
	"Aye," Svalin answered. If she were surprised that Ohu was still here, her face didn't show it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Halbjorn nods as well, about as non-plussed as his sister. "So... we hast need of root beer, meat and potatoes... methinks we must find a means to ensure these shopping trips art more efficient." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We had yams," Ohu admits. "But one of them just left with my father." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	On the one hand, that was a most impressive display of magic and trickery. On the other hand... Ohu. Asleif gave him one of her more withering glares. "I had thought that thou hadst left us." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Halbjorn calls into the next room - and pretty much anywhere in the compound. His voice carries - "Zoey... there ist someone here to see thee!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sydney_ashcroft 2009-08-18 06:24 am UTC (link)
	Syd didn't get too far away from the kitchen with Zoey crying into her shoulder when Halbjorn's voice shook the windows. Now what? She turned around and went back into the kitchen. There was some major blinking and a smile and she then nudged Zoey who still had her face buried in Syd's neck. "Honey, take a look." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ohu grins at Asleif. "I know, my friend Asleif. I did not mean to worry you so with my apparent absence." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	eagleofthebow 2009-08-18 06:39 am UTC (link)
	"We art most heartily glad that our friend ist with us still!" Aridis thins she's speaking for Zoey too. She gives a happy clap. Yay her friend is still here. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	team_mascot 2009-08-18 06:45 am UTC (link)
	Zoey heard Ohu's voice and tentatively peeked out. She straightened up. "OHU!" She stretched her arms out toward him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Asleif frowned, but quickly regained her composure. "For the child's sake, at least, it is not... terrible that you still remain with us." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
