Sick of the maze, Theoric stopped,- "Let's take a break here, I have a different idea," he said taking a seat against the wall as he formed an orange energy orb in front of him, sending out an energy line from it down the hall, splitting it off at the end in two different directions, basically letting it do the traveling for him now which he would follow when it found the end.
Sigyn worried about Grani after feeling and hearing the rumbling sat next to Theoric,- "Theo, are you sure Grani will be okay?"
Theoric whose eyes were now close as he concentrated on the many lines didn't answer until she shook him,- "Theo?"
Theoric slightly opening one eye glancing at her,- "Sigyn, I"m trying to concentrate here, Grani will be fine, stop worrying, besides don't you two have sort of connection now like our rings, why don't you focus on that and see if you can tell or not."
Sigyn listening to him giggled in glee a few minutes later, hugging the preoccupied Theoric,- "Theo you're so smart, I can feel it, Grani is okay," she said with a bright smile as she planted a kiss on his cheek which made the closed eye man grin.
"Thanks, now if you would please wait patiently, I'll find the treasure and we can be on our way."
A few minutes later they were greeted by Grani followed closely by Selene.
Sigyn brightened up seeing Grani alive and well,- "Grani!" She exclaimed rushing over, catching the rapidly shrinking form.- "Who's a good boy, who defeated that nasty bull, you did, yes you did," She said in her baby talk voice while patting his head.
Grani unable to show emotion did his purr-like response,- "Yes Mistress."
Selene going around the happy duo checked on Theoric, admiring his power,- "Neat trick, but it must be exhausting searching everywhere."
Theoric opened one eye before closing it,- "Did it taste good?"
Selene frowned remaining silent.
Theoric- "I'll take that as a no, so do you have any abilities that could help speed things along?"
Selene,- "Actually I didn't get a chance to taste it, your pet decided to grow because things weren't easy and it ended faster than expected, the problem was I was stuck behind that fat ass and couldn't get to it before it passed on."
Grani catching their talk growled at her only to be silenced into a lul from Sigyn's repeated patting.
Selene ignoring the little green teddy took out the bull ring flipping it in the air,- "But I did manage to swipe this, care to give it a try, I think this is what the bull used to navigate the labyrinth."
Eyes snapping open, he rose to his feet staring at the ring,- "Well, go on," he said encouraging her.
Selene grinned as she grabbed it out of the air, holding it tightly,- "How about a small meal for my troubles," she said seductively licking her lips to try to persuade him that it wasn't a big deal.
Her charm was undeniable as he was immediately put in the mood, Sigyn, however, wasn't,- "You can't be serious, this isn't the time to play around, we can do that back on the boat."
Selene looked over at the silly airhead and smirked,- "I didn't mean that kind of meal."
Sigyn eyes widened and then frowned with furrowed brows,- "No, Theo, you can't let her eat you anymore... If she must feed, she can feed on me."
Theoric instantly shook his head,- "Never, I will never allow any harm to come to you Sigyn, and as for you Selene..." He powered up his Orange shielding as he lifted her chin. "...You're playing a dangerous game," he said while rubbing his thumb over her lips before letting her go, "I let it go the first time out of curiosity and the other for obvious reasons, but going forward I won't be keen on you continuing to feed on me, can't you just get your substance elsewhere?"
Selene brows furrowed,- "This is who I am, this is no game and I take offense that you would call it such, do you think I like living this way, having to feed on others, well I don't, but this is who I am, I don't know why I ever expected more from you, you're just like the rest, here take the stupid ring and let's get this over with," she huffed disappointingly, flinging the nose ring at him before storming off to be alone.
Sigyn wanted to go after her but was stopped by Theoric,- "Let her be for now, we can apologize later."
Sigyn- "I feel so awful."
Theoric, on the other hand, didn't trust Selene's words completely. It just struck him as odd that she would try and bargain for a meal in such a way, even as a joke, but he decided to hold off on judging for now because he's only known her for a very short time and everyone has different personalities, maybe she was one of those poor decision-makers when it came to jokes. Given her background and the way she must have gone through life feeding on others made this a high possibility.
"Let's just stick to the task at hand," he said studying the ring.
