  <Pose Tracker> Sephilia Lampbright has posed.
Sephilia Lampbright has never been hung over before. It's a novel experience for her. She doesn't like it. This may be a first--she never doesn't like new experiences normally. "I think I'm sick, Chauncey," she moans to her constant companion. Chauncey doesn't respond.

At least he also isn't judging.

"None of this would have happened if that dumb boy hadn't treated me like a kid," she continues, nursing at her drink--water, definitely water, never again will she have that awful stuff. "Ugh, I'm hungry but I don't even want to think about meat pies..."

  <Pose Tracker> Tesni Inoue has posed.
Tess has been busy, likely crawling through forgotton places and getting into other trouble. She had not expected to see Sephilia in heere but she looks over at the poor girl for a momebnt and girmaces for a moment. She is about to suggest water but it seems Sephilia is already on that. "So just what happened you look like you had a bout with Captain Daniels."

  <Pose Tracker> Sephilia Lampbright has posed.
Sephy looks over and waves weakly, her usual bubbly energy missing. "Hi, Tess. I drank a bunch of mead, and now I'm sick. It was...there was a guy who acted like I was a kid and I wanted to prove that I'm not and then..." She trails off.

After a moment, she sighs. "I hate being small for my age," she says.

  <Pose Tracker> Tesni Inoue has posed.
Tesni Inoue says "Ouchs ounds like you hit the mead a bit too hard." She wisely doesn't comment about this sort of behaiour given the stunts /she/ did at that age, there shall be no stone throwing about this. "Well your smart getting water after something like that is the best thing you can do. Too much booze dries you out pretty hard I found. So you seem to have learned something out of it, right and well could be worse you could be way too tall. I knew a guy who was pretty darn tell and kept hitting his head on door frames."

  <Pose Tracker> Sephilia Lampbright has posed.
Sephy frowns, and sighs, dipping her finger in her water and tracing a circle on the table with water. "At least then nobody would think I'm a kid," she says a little sullenly. "The other day I wanted to stop people from arguing. If I was big and tall I could have just made a big noise or something but instead the only thing I could do was start to cry. Because nobody listens to a little kid when she's shouting, but they do when she's crying." This last is spoken bitterly.

Sephilia sighs. "And I've seen the way boys look at other girls near my age but..." She gestures, indicating her, ah, feminine assets--or rather, her lack thereof. "I mean boys are dumb but it would be nice to...y'know."

  <Pose Tracker> Tesni Inoue has posed.
Tesni Inoue says "I think you figuring out it was a bad idea to drink that much was a bad idea after only doing it once shows your no kid. I can get that I'm not the tallest myself." She owever does seem to get Sephilia's frustation about getting noiced. "Some people like my self are late bloomers to use the old phrase. Well then again would you want a guy who only was interested in your assests and not you?"

  <Pose Tracker> Sephilia Lampbright has posed.
Sephilia keeps playing with the water on the table. She's not drawing anything in particular, just moving water around. It's a minute or two before she replies.

"No," she says. "I mean, almost every boy near my age I know is dumb anyway. I don't know if I'm even interested in chasing boys or anything, either. I just...I hate being treated like a kid. I mean I know I act like one a lot and I know because I'm small and because Chauncey is a doll it's easy to see me like one. But...I am who I am. I can't help it!"

  <Pose Tracker> Tesni Inoue has posed.
Tesni Inoue laughs at the comments on boys. "They will get less dumb in time, It rough I know and some people spend their entire lives not knowing who they are, so I think your doing good. I ... was a bit of a dumbass myself. Okay I'm puting it mildy I was diving into ruins along when I was a few years younger than you, it almost was the end of myself. You might want to sip at the water a bit it will help abit in time."

  <Pose Tracker> Sephilia Lampbright has posed.
Sephy nods, taking a drink of the water. Once she sets it down she sighs. "That's the thing, though, I have been diving into ruins alone for years, with Chauncey...back home, anyway. My dad's a famous explorer there, and he taught me everything I know about ruins exploring. There's even some people here who know about him! I mean, they're from back home, too. But I know how to do stuff like that just fine. Chauncey's a good bodyguard, just...he's cute and adorable. And I mean...I like being cute! It's a lot of fun. But but but. I just wish I could be cute and still get respect like an adult."

  <Pose Tracker> Tesni Inoue has posed.
Tesni Inoue says "Sounds like you have a good teacher then for at least most things. I seen some things crawling you might not have already. When you encounter strange ARMs be wary. As for your pulishie body guard? I never thought I'd ever see something like that. Look most folk would mistake him for just a normal plushie and that's something you can use."

  <Pose Tracker> Sephilia Lampbright has posed.
Sephy nods. "Nobody ever tries to take him away from me, anyway. I could probably get work as a spy or something." She's still sounding particularly glum.

  <Pose Tracker> Tesni Inoue has posed.
Tesni Inoue Says "See my arm would clearly be a danger and taken from me if I got held up. Humm covert fox of mystery? Sounds like that would make a good boox some day. I could say buck up but really that wouldn't help. Sometimes you just have to confront something head on. Some things you can't change, some things you can. I'd worry about the things you can." Like being stuck in one of the most mysterous and feared systems in the Milyway.

<Pose Tracker> Sephilia Lampbright has posed.
Sephilia downs the rest of her water, and sighs. "Maybe you're right. I think I'm going to go try and sleep until the headache goes away now, though. Thanks for listening to me complain, Tess. G'night." She smiles, and there's a bit of the usual Sephy back.

Collecting Chauncey from his seat, Sephilia pays for her food--mostly untouched--and makes her way out.
