*Lady Mercury smiled cheerfully as she turned her attention to the group*
"I'm thinking we might need a fire to cook the food on, though I'll pass on both the fish and the pheasant, I prefer something a bit lighter after teleporting, do you want me to gather some wood for the fire?"

'That just leaves me then,' smiled Wren, and a second later a skinning knife had materialised in his hand which he began twirling theatrically. It had been a long time since he had done any outdoor food preparation, but he was sure he still had the knack. He might even be able to make something of the pheasant's skin.
He began whistling a jaunty tune as he sliced carefully into the animal.

*A few moments later, Coriolis wanders back from the cave with several stones in his arms. He places 4 flattened rocks in a square shape on the ground near to where Wren is busy making like a 2-legged food blender before carefully balancing a much larger, flatter and thinner piece of slate on top. The end result resembles a plate on stilts.* There... No leaves large enough to wrap things in so let's go with the "posh" alternative. If Leytans new friend can get some wood underneath that, I'll direct some of Rhiannons bad temper at it and we should have the perfect cooking plate in no time...

*Lady MErcury smiled*
"Your wish is my command!"
*there was a slight rustling sound and a pile of wood seemed to float in and settle itself into a small pile for a fire*

*Rhiannon takes one of the pebbles still held in her hand and gives it a long look then flings it easily in the direction of her brother as his words are heard.*
Well perhaps I would have a very good reason to be mad seen as my brother some how seems to always manage to get himself into trouble and may I ask why this time or should I say what over?

*Lady Mercury watches the stone fly towards Coriolis*
"I'm so glad I'm an only child!" She mused to herself
*Lady Mercury wandered over to the fire she had set up and looked at if, then gestured towards it. A pale blue light formed in her hand, that then headed down into the wood below. As soon as it touched the wood, the wood began to smoulder*
"Give it a few minutes, it should be hot enough to cook over after that"
*As she finished saying that, she glanced around and then headed over to the waters edge, and tentatively dipped a hand into it, testing the warmth of the water. Finding it not too cold, she splashed some onto her face and sighed to herself*

*Sighs also and makes use of the excuse to keep out of His Sisters way. SHE was the one that launched HIM off the back of that damned overgrown handbag/blowtorch combination... * *The sight of an overly comfortable female at the edge of water is too good an opportunity to pass up. The Watcher fades and returns to the Tiger before soundlessly galloping across the clearing to plant all 4 heavy paws on to Her back at a fair pace.* *As usual, the consequences of his actions haven't been planned far beyond the loud SPLAAAAAAASH! but who cares? Nothing wrong with a quick swim to work up an appetite while the Fish and Pheasant cooks... *

*There is an abrupt scream that cuts off as Lady Mercury goes under the water, then she resurfaces, spluttering water as she did so. She glared furiously at Coriolis*
"Do you want to spend eternity being a rug?! Because believe me, that can be arranged!" She yelled from the water, her mouth twitching as she suppressed a laugh
*She swam swiftly over to where he was standing, then walked out the water, dripping water from her wet dress as she did so*
"You are aware I'm going to make you pay for this at some stage, when you're not expecting it?" She said conversationally to Coriolis, ignoring the fact that she was standing there looking very bedraggled

*Leytan managed to stifle a laugh.*
"Well a little swim never hurt anyone Isabel."
*He said, he looked across at Wren and saw he was looking slightly uncomfrotable at something. Leytan looked back towards Lady Mercury and saw the resson. He couldn't help but smile and shake his head.*
*After her unintended Swim Lady Mercurys dress was now clinging to her body due to it being soked and was showing off he figure to a greter extent then it had before. Leytan got up and went over to Lady Mercury removeing his cloke as he did so.*
"Come on Isabel we don't want you to catch a chill."
*He said putting his cloke around her.*
"And we don't want Wren dieing of embarasment either."
*He said quietly in her ear and noded slightly towards Wren.*

*Lady Mercury cocked her head at Leytan and smiled slightly*
"That's sweet Leytan, but I'm a sorceress remember?"
*Lady Mercury's smiled widened as a a pale blue light surrounded her, and Lady Mercury's hair seemed to dry quickly, and restyled itself. She handed Leytan the cloak with a smile, revealing a new outfit underneath, completely dry, and completely different to the one she was wearing before her unexpected swim*
*Lady Mercury handed Leytan his cloak back, then nodded to the others as she sat down beside the camp fire, and glanced at it.*
"Seems like you could cook something now!" She called over

'You cannot RUSH these things, people! A well prepared piece of foul takes time, care and attention. If you settle for anything less you might as well roast your own shoes.'
'Bloody gourmand,' Leytan muttered, audible only to Lady Mercury who begin sniggering.
Finally satisfied with his ministrations, Wren carried the freshly skinned pheasant over to the fire and placed it next to the fish. He then pulled out a vial which Leytan had come to recognise very well in the last few weeks.

*Coriolis finished his second swim in less than an hour and padded up the bank once again. The dampest looking pussy cat you could ever lay eyes on.* *Keeping a discrete distance from the warm fire, the cat shakes out. Water flying everywhere in a beautiful 180 degree arc as the shake starts at the tip of his nose and rapidly works its way backwards to the tip of his tail.* *Instinct, as always, is a strong thing. There's a strong smell of cooking fish and fowl on the breeze so the Watcher lays down and takes up station within striking distance of it. Paws folded under whiskers and eyes locked on the food.* *For once There's no mischief intended. The Tiger is simply making sure He's at the front of the queue...*

*Leytan spoted the vial that Wren was holding and he did indeed reconise it.*
"Don't even think about "sesoning" this meal till its cooked and served, then you can do what you like with your own protion."
"No offence Wren but i don't need to become adicted to that spice of yours. I've had thouse kind of problems in the past.
*He smiles at Wren and says jokeingly.*
"And besides that I wouldn't want to end up with bizzar eyes like yours."

(OOC: Sorry not posted for a while guys, had my old comp blow up, had to borrow another and then kept forgetting to check in here. Sorry my memory is rubbish at the moment so I apologise for any mistakes in timeline etc I do for the next six months or so ahead of time.)
*Rhiannon herself had parted from the group slowly putting more and more distance between her and the others though she did not go out of sight range. She slowly explored the area surrounding them as much as possible and began to lay certain traps ont he ground that would give some warning should any one pass that way, by a tumbling of placed rocks or branches or even perhaps a sudden scream or two.*
*She could smell the cooking food in the air , her nostrils flaring slightly at the inviting smell though she refused to leave her self given task unfinished, she knew her brother would linger close to the food and the others seemed to know each other well so they would stay together.*
