Siv watches as the pell is torn into "I know how you feel..looks like you and I got passed over though" She calls out "Oak, Edelwiss.. Harry!"

HOWLs like the sound of hell

Sylvi watches Dagmar, but seems drained herself. "I think 'okay' is a way off."

Nadeen smiles a bit as the dogs harry them, "oh for a horse and a hunting bow"

"I know I ain't worth lookin' at. But I don't..." Another frustrated noise. "But I hate it."

"Girls, come on, let's go inside. Tend those hands... and give the news to the Chief and ...god help me, your fathers. "

Vali frowns "I'm sorry I missed that I was supposed to be looking out for you all"

"You were," Sylvi assures him. "Looking out for us, I mean. As soon as we noticed, you were on it."

"Don't tell Jaymes!"

"mmph" he grunts "Dagmar... Jaymes will be proud of you. You held control. "

A surprised look to Dagmar. "Why not?"

"I don't... it'll be bad if you tell..."

"They said they weren't lookin' at me..."

"I'll tell the Chieftain, it'llbe up to her who she tells after that, but Dagmar, I think she'll believe it best all the parents know"

"Please ask her not to tell? Maybe... maybe Kerri? She could tell Kerri..."

"I'll tell her your concerns, but Dagmar" He looks at her bending down "You are not bad because what some JERKS tried. THEY are the scum, not you."

"Wh-...." Sylvi almost asks something, but stops.

Then she sighs and shakes her head. "Never mind. I'm going to go inside. I think I'm done with practice for now." She wipes the remains of the dirt from her hands and sets aside the staff before heading in through the kitchen door.

"I'll clean up" Siv volunteers

She chews on her thumbnail, frowning. "I think I wanna go home and shower."

"And I? I will plot revenge" Nadeen says under her breath

"Okay," Vali says "Do you want someone to go with you, Dagmar?"

"No. It's close. No bug guy."

"Okay. Dagmar, you may not believe me, but you did well. "

"I didn't smash them. Dagda says not to."

"Yes. I'm proud of you" He says and means it

"...Okay."

Vali looks tempted to go with her but nods "I think you should talk to your dad, but ... I'll go to tell the Chief"

"Night Vali..."

"Night" He moves on to the lodge

Siv watches him go "He's blaming himself still..for not noticing."

"Like adults ever notice?"

"Do you blame him?" Siv asks

"No. He did stuff when you saw them."

"Sylvi noticed first, but aye " Siv says "Mind if I walk you home anyway?"

"Just to talk?"

"Well... kay."

She walks along "You weren't the only one who wanted to hurt them. I almost.. I almost kicked them one in the face"

"They deserved it."

"Yeah" She hisses "I normally like boys but not them"

"I hate boys."

"mmph. If that's the sort you've usually met, I can't say I blame you..." they close on Dagmar's home.

And Tove waves from the window then comes out "Hey girls"

"Hey Tove!"

"Come in, hot coco is almost done. How did practice go?"

"Oh I'll pass on the coco.. thank you" Siv shoots Dagmar a look, a question.
