BLIZZARD MEANS POSTING 8U

Well Noss seemed pleased to see him, if that smirk was a hint. That and the man more or less went straight to him, though he did seem rather happy to see him. It had been a couple of days and, admittedly, it was a bit too quiet without the other man, even if he was far quieter than Strel himself. But the redhead did not give any sign of his quiet happiness of seeing Noss, considering Ralla was standing right there and was not about to scream to the world he had some kind of feeling for the other man, maybe. For now, the redhead stood nonchalantly watching Noss come in close and whisper in his ear what his dearest sister wanted with him. It seemed as though she had come to inspect him and see if he was appropriate for her brother. Strel expected it fully, since he knew his own siblings would do the same thing. If they were here.

Strel gave a smirk as Noss said he needed a scent trail to get back. Of course, his navigation skills seemed to suck harder than a leech. "Of course. It's entirely possible you still don't know your way around, of course," he whispered back, smirking right back at him as they both pulled apart with smug looks plastered all over their faces. As the man passed by him, the redhead graced his fingers along Noss' arm, a linger touch, trying to think what Noss was going to take away from that light touch. But, then he turned his lavender eyes and attention to the female before him. It seemed that he would be expected a waiting Noss back at the hotel and that would mean skirting around the topic that he knew the other man wanted to talk about and flesh out more fully. But Strel would push that off as best as he could. He was good at that, even if he had good as said enough to make Noss believe his feelings were reciprocated to some extent.

Lost in wary thoughts, the redhead did not notice the woman come up to him and start observing him with hawk-like eyes. He looked nervously as she circled him, giving off a weird knowing look. Kind of smug, he thought, but almost naive. Almost. Strel knew well that Ralla was no naive child. "Well enough, as you'd expect from him," he said blankly, wondering what kind of test she was setting out for him. He was not out to impress anyone, he never was. But he did not want the man's sister hating him, so he was treading carefully. "And I bet none of it was bad," he answered, grinning slightly at the thought. Noss probably said some things, surely. He had no doubt about that. "He's told me some about you, though I'm almost positive you know what most of that was." Noss probably told her anyway. "So what'd that smarmy bastard say about me?" he asked lightly, insult weak on his tongue.
