#anywhere

Alanza starts "Sorry, I was just thinking of new ways to prevent animal cruelty"

One doesn't have to be a Gwydion to suspect that is NOT what she was thinking about

He chuckles. "Yeah. So -ANYWAY-......."

"Yeah yeah... " She moves to some of the horses that are here "Here's one that Dame Leonora uses."

A cream colored mare swishes

Adam clucks his tongue at her in greeting. "There girl......"

She sniffs them over , Zane pats her "Dagmar would love her I bet."

"Dagmar? Is that Dagmar friend of Siv?" The Eshu asks

Zane nods "Yeah, Dame Dagmar Hammerstrike. Ap Gwydion. She's a brick..howse"

"Dagmar's ok." Adam says quietly. "She's a warrior and a hero."

"I heard she jousted with a car" The Eshu says "That's just pooka talk right?"

"Nope!" some pride "She really did it. Won, too!"

"Seriously" Zane nods "Ended up Saving Sir Vali and probably Siv"

"I really have to visit Rivervale sometime" She ponders "So many stories that don't get talked about enough"

"Yeah, there's a lot of heroes there." Adam nods.

"The warriors get all the glory" Zane sighs

"Hey, you do ok." Adam reminds him.

"Except for magic rods that make me sleep walk" A brow from her

"Ah.." Zane says "Really sorry about that. We dont' know ..didn't know what it did"

"I still don't know -how- it did .... whatever. Or why."

"Well, you guys need to be.. careful with that" She says

"What..exactly did you see?" Zane says "err Dream?"

"oh no.. nunya " Alanza blushes

"I can't lie; I was ok with having an excuse to put my arms around you." Adam grins.

She rolls her eyes, but doesn't look REALLY upset

"Did you want to take a closer look at it?"

"Yes, actually" She says and holds out her hand.

Zane blinks "Ah, this is powerful magic, and the full effects might be... I mean, it seems to ONLY work on women"

Adam frowns. "I wouldn't want you to.... well, for it to make a problem for you, Alanza."

"Come on," She says, then looks at them both "if it turns me on again, I know both of you will be honorable gentlemen "

Adam nods; of course he will. "What do you think, Zane?"

"Well, yeah, when you put it THAT way" He says

She smiles, and takes the rod

Then blinks "oh wow." And she blushes looking at the rod, trying to slow her breathing as if calming herself "Oh this is..ah..." She licks her lips then says "You.. you better take this back"

Zane does "What..what happened?"

"You ok?"

"Fine...very nice. It ah.. made me.. dream while awake that time I ... uhm.. let's just say it was better than an erotic novel" A cough

"Really?" Zane looks at it "neat.. and the shape is..." HE blinks "Oh by zeus it IS a ..." He clamps down on the word

"Is it?" fascinated despite himself.

A blush from the Eshu "I want you guys to see how incredibly secure I am about what some women would see as really ...well, I'm showing a lot of trust"

"you are you are" Zane says then smiles "You want to borrow it?"

She looks tempted then says "No. Definitely not. Not even a little"

Eshu recklessness wars with... well.. sense!

"You're amazing." He assures Alanza.

"Good. Flattery is soothing" She laughs softly

"If you want, when we finish the tour, maybe there's another way we can help soothe you." he suggests.

"you guys are outrageous..." She laughs "Come on... the gardens, and drinks"

And off they go
