Back to Logs:

Artists' Workroom The first really noticable things in this room are the four oversized wooden worktables. Each of these is lined with wooden stools for the artists to work at. A large set of cabinets and counters line the four wall everywhere except at the door. These are strewn with paints, pencils, paper and all sorts of other things. Small stands site about the room with works in progressed and finished works alike, giving the room a very welcoming feel. It is an autumn afternoon. On the perch are Tallanvor, Angelique, Klah, and Lu-nar. Liesana, Kryz, and Kazyndra are here. Obvious exits: Main Hall 

Lys walks in from the main hall.

Kryz lets out a sigh and says, "but you're missing all the fun, Zyn," before his eyes focus on the new figure. He then says in complete shock, "Lys?" 

Liesana taps Zyn on the shoulder. "I think there's things you need to say, but you're not going to say them today. Just make sure to say them at some point, okay?" And with a soft smile, she returns to her seat, waving a hello to the new arrival. "Hi there!" 

Kazyndra sighs, "Fine Kryz. Have it your way." she says seating herself on the stool offered to her earlier. 

Lys looks around, almost confused, but then her eyes fall on Kryz and her face falls into a pleased smile. "Oh Kryz!!!! I found you! and you aren't even around that brute of a....I mean, where is your friend Anjula? Oh! Hello. I'm Lys." she says to the woman who greeted her 

Liesana offers a hand and a warm smile. "And I'm Liesana. Well met, Lys." 

Lys forgets the rest of the room and turns around to hug Kryz "Oh Kryz! Did you miss me?!" 

Liesana lets loose an evil chuckle. From Kryz's reaction, Lys is someone she's going to have to get to know better. 

Kryz cringes from the embrace but says, "Yeah," his face telling the other two something totally different. He then takes her by the shoulders and pulls her off to repeat, "What're you doing here?" 

Kazyndra glances over at Kryz. 'Why does he want her here anyhow?' she wonders to herself, 'It's not as if he didn't have enough company...' 

Lys continues "Oh! I am so happy I found you! you are an artist now? Well, I suppose we will have to wait until you are a journeyman before we can officially start our relationship again. I'll never know why you decided to move so very far away but that’s okay because we are together now and I'll never ever let us be apart again and...oh...I thought you would figure that out. I moved so I could be near you, Kryzipoo!" 

Liesana stage-whispers to Zyn. "Are you in danger of losing your lunch too?"

 Kazyndra shrugs. It's no as if she's actually listening to what's going on. 

Kryz's expression shows nothing other then 100% disgust as he mutters, "yeah, where is Anjula when you need her to keep people away....?" He just sits there having no idea what to do or what to say, his eyes shooting around the room for a way out. Anything....."Lys! I don't think that's gonna happen anytime soon," he says an idea coming to mind as he sees the other 2 out of the corner of his eye and quickly points to Liesana. "Liesana and I are going out," he blurts, not sure what else to say that would get her away right now. 

Liesana's face registers surprise for all of a millisecond, then she, too, starts playing along. She stands up, wincing as her ankle takes weight, then leans on Kryz's arm for 'support', simpering beautifully that "I've never felt so close to /anyone/ before... we're so very happy together." 

Lys's eyes grow wide. "But...." she whispers "but Kryz!" Lys lets go of him, finally and steps away. Her eyes begin to well up with tears. She lets out a huge sob as she hides her face in her hands. 

Kryz forces a smile on his face trying /so/ hard not to laugh. You've just been gone for so long," he says trying to sound soothing and not like he's gong to burst out in laughter. 

Lys lets out another sob as she sits down on a table, next to Kazandra. She doesn’t take her hands from her face, then people would se it all red and puffy. KRYZ would see it all red and puffy! 

Kryz looks from Lys to Kazyndra then Liesana, then back to Kazyndra. Oops....Maybe that wasn't the best thing to say for a cover up. He gives her a look trying to says 'Liesana and I aren't really going out' but could obviously be interpreted as /anything/, though he hopes he got his point across. 

Liesana glances over at Kryz, expression clearly stating 'what do we do now?' She's always available for a cover story, but tears? Tears are not good. 

Kryz glances back to Lys. He mouths, 'help'. Obviously he doesn't know what to do either. 

Kazyndra slips down of the stool. "I really should get that work done." she says biting her lip. "I'll talk to you later. Alright." she adds as she steps quickly out of the room. 

Kazyndra passes out through the open french doors into the main hall. 

Kryz glances at the doorway, "Zyn," he says. Okay, this is the perfect distraction. He gives Liesana a look that says 'I'm SO SO SO sorry' as he stands and says, "I'll be back in like...two seconds! I really have to talk to her," and runs out of the room. 

Liesana winces. Oh great. She looks at the sobbing Lys, then back at Kryz, then at the two firelizards, then thinks frantically. "Ummmm. Yeah, well, it was nice meeting you, Lys but... ahhhh... Kryz and I have to go discuss my project." Yeah, that's it. "Uh, yeah, 'cause it's kind of linked to his, so... It was good meeting you." 

Kryz passes out through the open French doors into the main hall. 

Lys takes her hands from her face "No! come back!" Her eyes narrow. "He went away and _you_ took him. you meanie!!!!” 

Liesana watches the retreating Kryz. Darn. He's paying for this later. BIG TIME! She sits down beside Lys. "Want to talk?" 

Lys begins to sob again 

Liesana twiddles her thumbs, wondering if she should keep up the charade. She decides she ought to until hearing from Kryz. "Ummm... Kryz never told me about you, Lys. I, um, yeah." 

Lys stops sobbing and simply sniffs "Just like a man." 

Liesana nods seriously. Now she knows e-zackly how to play this. "So typical. And yet, what can you do?" 

Lys sniffs some more "Nothing...I guess.... 

Liesana sighs. "Just love them and be happy with what you get of them. That's out lot, I suppose." 

Lys’s voice rises in pitch. "But...I love him!!!" She burst back into tears. How much water is in this girl's tear ducts? 

Liesana places her hand on Lys's sticky, tear-stained one, (yick) and looks earnestly into her eyes. (gotta love those Harper acting classes) "Then just... keep on loving him, if that's what makes you happy." Muahahahah. Kryz won't find /this/ problem solved so easily. Leave her to deal with crush-girl, hmmm? 

Lys stops crying and sniffs again "but...don’t you love him too?" she asks, wiping away a tear with the back of her hand 

Kazyndra walks with a slight spring, her hair bouncing on her back, in from the Main Hall. 

Liesana calls to Angelique, who flies over and lands on her shoulder. 

Liesana goes home. 

Lys continues to sniff occasionally, then finally cries "He is such a meanie!!!!!"

 Kazyndra nods, "I'd have to agree with you there." 

Lys sobers a little, distancing the sniffs "What did he do to you?" she asks softly 

Kazyndra sighs, "He's always working on his sharding paintings." she says tempted to knock over his easel. 

Lys tilts her head "He never did that sort of thing before. He just went on adventures with his brute of a best friend and left me behind. He never once came to a tea party!" 

"He doesn't like your tea parties then?" Zyn asks. 

Lys sighs "No, I haven’t had one for ten years...Of course, I am over that, we were children...but why didn't he remember me when he came here?" 

Kazyndra shrugs, "I don't know." 

Lys sobs "It's not fair! That Liesana girl is so lucky!!!!" 

Kazyndra shakes her head. "He's not dating her." she says blandly. "He just said that he was." 

Lys's lip begins to quiver "Really? Why did he lie to me?" Kazyndra shrugs, "I'm not sure. You'd have to ask him." 

Lys shakes her head and looks down. "He had to have a reason. He wouldn’t lie to me for no reason. Maybe he was trying to save me from worrying about him while he was sick. How sweet of him..." 

Kazyndra rolls her eyes. "Or maybe it's the fact you attacked him." 

Lys tilts her head "You mean, he doesn’t like hugs?" 

Kazyndra shrugs, "Or it might be he was trying to make you jealous cause he really likes you." she grins. Ooh. Good idea. 

Lys blinks "Why would he want to make me jealous? He knows I love him... I came all the way here just to see him! I even bought new clothes!!!" She fingers her coat. "He didn’t even notice!" 

Kazyndra sighs and seats herself beside the girl. "I'm sure he would have noticed except he was too busy thinking about how beautiful you are. And as for trying to make you jealous… maybe he doesn't know you love him." 

Lys's grow wider still "Really? do you think so? but...how can I prove to him I love him?” 

Kazyndra shrugs, "Give him lots of hugs for starters. I'm sure he'd love that." 

Lys climbs to her feet, looking hopeful "Anything else? 

"Maybe you should invite him to a tea party." Zyn suggests. 

"But...I havent had one for years." She murmurs "And all my dishes are at home. Besides, its kind of a 6 year old thing.... but, If I brought him food and drinks in the workshop the would like that, right?" once more she looks hopeful 

Kazyndra nods, "You wouldn't have to have all the dishes and fancy stuff." 

Lys bites her lip "I can even help him improve his manners!!! I'm sure he would like that!" Lys practically beams as she takes a step towards the door "Oh I have so many good ideas...” 

Kazyndra nods, "He'd love it." 

Lys keeps going "I can call the healer here when he is sick, so he doesn’t have to, and I can give him soap and a towel so he remembers to wash up....it looks as if he has been forgetting. And I can help him get that paint off of his face!" she claps "Oh I can prove myself so many ways! Thank you!!!" 

Kazyndra grins. "Yes you could. And I'm sure he'd appreciate all of it." 

Lys claps again "Oh thank you! I have to get all of this ready! Goodnight!" She runs out, excited-ly
