She doesn't mind grubby husband. She's just glad he's back and not too hurt. The welcome-home kiss is heartfelt.

Dagmar looks up from where she is setting up chairs. "Olgar? Does that mean Jonas is back?"

Jonas Elmo Donovan protests and Dagmar can hear his voice "Piper, Siv, please. I'm sorry. It was an important quest"

(oops, I missed Jonas getting out of the tree.) Piper flings herself over at him and has him wrapped in a smothering hug. At least, it would be if she was more than 5'.

Elmo? Something Kerri didn't know.

At least not until Piper yelled it. Middle names are IMPORTANT, so you know when you're in trouble.

Siv is clinging to both of them "No quest is as important as you being home"

She whispers to Olgar, "Thank you. Those three are in desperate need of a discussion."

Olgar whispers back after the kiss "No kidding. 'Elmo'? Dear god, no wonder he hid that one"

Jonas hugs both women he loves TIGHTLY but gently "I've missed you both I have. I had no intention of being gone so long "

"Jonas," Kerri says aloud, "if you're not in need of Heatherbalm, I'm going to head back to the Lodge with Olgar."

Piper notices the rope burns about Jonas' neck

"Nothing that won't heal" Jonas assures

Grunt, eyeroll.

"What's this?" She reaches up and lightly touches his neck. "Love, what happened?"

"I can go get the cookies."

Siv looks at Dagmar, "Please? He's hurt!" Oh Fiona panic so easy over loved ones

"It's an abrasion... I was Hung" Jonas starts to explain

She tromps off to the kitchen.

"KERRI!" Piper yelps, not waiting for him to explain. "Please?!"

Olgar notes Dagmar's stomping, and looks at Kerri "Something eating her?"

Kerri takes a quick look and shakes her head. "Nothing too dire. Dagmar's already gone to get the cookies, and he'll be fine until then. We'll see you inside in a bit." She tugs Olgar's arm to lead him up to the Lodge.

"You big, dumb, stupid..." Whacking Jonas on the chest, each 'blow' perpetuated with a teary insult that she clearly does not at all mean.

Quietly to Olgar, "She's had some adventures and some challenges since you left."

"Aww damned" Olgar mutters "The little falcon gets enough shit as it is. Hope she's okay." Only Olgar would refer to Dagmar as LITTLE Falcon

"Inconsiderate!" Siv adds!

"Well, I get the sense that she's working on it," Kerri replies to Olgar.

A concerned glance back at the trio.

Olgar walks with Kerri as he's lead in "We nearly got hung in the gallows after a dream war. You know, your standard #160 A situation" Joking as if it's all so been there done that

From the kitchen. "Olgar, you need one, too?"

Olgar grunts at Dagmar "Thanks, Dagmar, but I prefer an excuse to have the wife put her hands on me."

She emerges with the tin. "Okay."

"Nearly got hung? Well, RoverMan, however did you escape that one?" Inviting him to share the story as she seats him on a stool in the kitchen.

Jonas lets the ladies he loves fuss and chew him out, then says " I missed you both too." And he plants a kiss on Piper, then Siv in turn

"I'm just glad you're back." Sniffling.

"Dagmar, when you bring the cookie to him, don't be surprised if they're a little preoccupied." A gentle caution. "It's not about you."

"LONG story" Olgar says "Some of which I don't remember"

Her hands seeking under his shirt, checking chest and back for any wounds she can't see.

Bruises here and there but nothing serious, a bit tender

"No, lovey-dovery shit, I'm sure."

((Kitchen)) "Well, that's to be expected. Anything wrong I can't see? Ribs, organs, and so forth?"

She stomps out to the trio, and opens the tin before holding it out. "Kerri cookies."

Piper pauses in her inventory and steps back.

Siv says "Bless you, Dagmar. " Siv grabs a cookie out of the tin and shoves it in Jonas' mouth.

JOnas chokes for a bit, but it's a healing cookie so even down the wrong pipe it helps

Watching intently. "Is it working? Does he need another one?"

Her mouth pulls to the side and she waits, mostly patiently.

(KITCHEN) "mmm , Gash near where my left kidney should be. Nothing lethal as it missed but..."

(SHOULD be?! Gack!)

JOnas chokes but also heals, the marks on neck going going... then he coughs and seems much BETTER "Darn it, Siv"
