Lokes blinked for a second, "I know I'm getting old, but you like a weasel to me." He said, slightly surprised. Meanwhile down further in the hallway, Jellal finally reached near the end of the hallway and could see a figure leaning on the wall to side. As he got closer, he could tell it was a fox with graying fur, wearing leather armor and on his waist rested a glimmering sharp scimitar. He walked past him without a glance, and the fox did nothing to stop him as he resumed waiting at his post. "Well I heard many strange things, but this takes the top of the list." The older weasel said followed by a hearty laugh.

Inktail chuckles "It's an odd thing, ta be sure, but tha's my story." The younger of the two weasels chuckles happily "An' that's why I came ta be a fisherweasel instead o' some raider." He smiles at some remembered memories, "Life's an odd thing at times, with 'ow long I've been on my own, an' 'ow many real nasty vermin I've kept away from, I'd 'ave seen that th' odd o' me running into another vermin, with ties ta a group of others working at not being what all the reputations lead up ta, at less than' nothin'." Inktail can only chuckle and shake his head. "I 'ope I 'aven't rambled on, I know I tend ta do that sometimes."

"No, it just means your the right choice of a friend to watch over Jellal. I'm sure hes told you his father is the current master now, and how well he knows Silvis. To tell you the truth, he got closer to Silvis then either or Ragburn ever could. The level of trust between them is quite extraordinary, after what happened that day though, I'm surprised he even came to see him." Lokes said with a look of remembrance of some bad event he rather not relive.

Inktail smiles, lightly bashful about it, "I'm jus' lookin out for a good mate." The younger weasel seems surprised. "He mentioned his father, but not very much about Silvis. I'm not one ta pry though." Inktail furrowed his brow as they mention an accident "Yer talkin' about the flood then? I never really asked 'im about that, just, he told about it, an' it bein' why he 'as certain fears."

"It was a dark day for the island and its inhabitants. It seemed like a normal day at first, just a normal summer day, it was business as usual. Until late in the afternoon...the wave came, it was upon us before we could do anything about it. An entire fishing village was lost in the initial hit, over 100....gone in an instant. The wave still swept inward and flooded almost the entire island, jellal was caught in the middle of it, out in the forest with..." Lokes stopped mid sentence, almost as if about to let out a deep secret.

Listening in silence to what was explained for him, Inktail began to frown a bit. A whole village, just, gone, when he was younger he might have had trouble believing it, but growing up, he'd asked why so many beasts didn't like weasels. After having the raids explained to him, and how bad their destruction could be, he understood how a flood, how one REALLY big wave could do that. "I-I see, it's not my place to ask this o' ya. I'll not pry anymore, maybe, when I feel I know 'im well enough, I'll ask Jellal, but fer now, I'll let 'im be tha judge o' that."

"Yes...a story for another time. It probably be best to not ask him straight out, wait a bit and wait for what you think the best moment is." Lokes said starting to become his cheery self again. Echoing footfalls could be heard coming towards them, "Ah, seems hes back from seeing Silvis. Sorry to say though, you both will have to cross back over that pitfall you two swung over. Thats the trouble with pitfalls, never can reset them quite easily." He said and headed off, passing by Jellal while whistling a tune. Jellal had no emotion showing on his face, no evidence of anything that happened with his meeting. "You ready to go back Inktail?" He said as he shouldered the small pack, which slightly bulged.

Inktail nodded politely to Lokes and turned to Jellal. "Well, yeah ready as ever I s'pose." The young weasel looks his friend over "Matey, let's work on gettin' outta 'ere first, then...if there's anythin' at all ya wanna talk about, I'm 'appy to oblige." Knowing better than to press his friend for info right away Inktail will do what he can to help their exit.

"Keep that fishing arm strong then mate." Jellal said as he pulled out the spear tipped rope and started spinning it. Once it started to hum, he released, hitting the ceiling above the pit with spot-on accuracy. He pulled it a couple of times to be sure it wouldn't come out, "Strong enough for two now...ready Inktail?" He asked his weasel friend with a outstretched paw.

Inktail nods as Jellal re-attaches the spear-rope. "Gotcha matey. I'm ready and eager to go." He smiles wide, and takes Jellal's paw, and a hold of the rope if able. "Okay then, ready when you are." Inktail will wait for a signal before moving to take the leap with his friend!

(OOC: Technical issues here, Cbox not working for me, its fine delerix, I forgive you. :3 )
Jellal sighed as his paw was accepted and took the leap of faith one might call it. Due to the extra weight, their downward swing went faster and lower, almost colliding with the wall as it arced. He let go as the force of the swing sent him and probably inktail into a roll on the other side. Jellal quickly recovered and looked to see if Inktail made through okay.

As he and Jellal soared in that downward half of the arc Inktail found himself relishing every second, actually enjoying it this time. Letting go in tandem with his friend, he too landed in a roll. Having far less experience with recovering from that kind of thing Inktail tried to come to his feet standing still after the first somersault, resulting in his landing flat on his belly and having the wind knocked from him. Winded, and lightly bruised, the weasel was nevertheless alright, chuckling lightly he rolled onto his back and sat up to wave and assure his friend of his good health.

Jellal sighed at Inktail's expression, some things never change. He got up, "Need a paw?" He said to Inktail, extending his paw to help him to his feet. "Its gonna be a long walk back, you know that right?" He said to his weasel friend, knowing hes always got a answer to almost any question he told him.

Inktail smiled and accepted the paw up from Jellal, and shook his head lightly "Yeah yer right ther, but I'm sure we'll find a way ta pass th' time. Not like Rex is suspectin' we're in trouble. Jellal matey, just gonna let ya know I got ta talking with Lokes. I'm not gonna press any questions now, but if ever y'wanna talk about it, I'm here fer ya, an' ya know what, I'm just proud ta hear a guild like that'n exists." He smiles and starts off, after waiting for Jellal to lead, just in case.

Jellal just stared dumbly, Lokes talked...to inktail? OH COME ON! Five minutes at best, and already he told MY life story?! He just sighed and lead on, knowing whats done has been done. "Come on, lets head back before Rex goes crazy and starts to look for us." He said, knowing what he said was true, if they were gone for too long, the otter might suspect somethings wrong. He hoped to get outside and see how long they had before sundown to get back to the campsite.

Inktail nods "Jellal, don' jump the gun, I was asking about the guild, and what it was formed fer and stuff." He chuckles a bit. "I don't think we've been gone so long as that, but it may be best before Rex starts ta worry like ya said." He smiles and heads off, with Jellal "Ya gotta calm down some mate, yer whiskers'll go grey before yer time."
