"I don't want you or the hearth or Mountain... or.. " A sigh "Or Sylvi or MOM thinking.. less of me cuase of this.. could we PLEASE get back to the food part?"

"Mm." She nods. "Does AnneMarie know?"

"She's a boggan" Wry

with an exasperated sort of 'and you can't hide shit from them' tone

"it's okay.. I could probably gun down a bus full of nuns and Anne Marie would be like 'well, at least they were sure where their souls were going... now off to a thearpist with you' "

Resigned sigh "You know how hard it is to act like a bad ass when people DO that?"

"Mm. Hers is the reckoning I truly dread." A sigh and she leans back in her chair, barely wincing. "Go see the Hearth, Peacekeeper."

"yes, Chief" He says then stops "Bet your'e gonna have an AWESOME Scar"

"Mmph." She looks uncomfortable at the thought, but adds, "Thank you."

"Yyeah, you too" And he goes in.

True to her word, Kerri has not only made sure that there's a hearty stew (admittedly, reheated) ready...but she's already put it in the Cauldron of Plenty...so there is, indeed, plenty.

In her chair by the 'fire, Brekke finally takes up the glass of mead provided by Frank. She toasts the 'Fire briefly before knocking it back.

"Wow.. my favorite dish.. Lots! Thanks , Hearth"

"Glad to do it, Peacekeeper. Everything good?"

"Old legends SURE are full of themselves" He grumbles and chows down

"And we wouldn't have them any other way," she grins, making a point of not watching.

"Yeah... " He says with a sigh between chomps "I know"
