"Arioch, you need to really lighten up." Altima said in a no-nonsense tone.  She kind of didn't appreciate having her attempts at lighthearted cheeriness crushed so thoroughly like that.  Perhaps elves liked to be dour or something.  She was certainly seeing it in their newest companion and found she didn't like that trait; Arioch was really coming off as haughty, arrogant and pessmistic; like some overtly pragmatic noblewoman.  "Eee!" she squealed, hopping forward suddenly when she got groped by Brand while he was trying to catch himself after tripping.  It was enough to make the female knight start laughing as she helped her friend up and steadied him until he could get going on his own without falling over...again.<br/><br/>"Brand, my friend. You need to pay more attention to the road and stop staring at ms haughty's boobs." She grinned at the young knight and continued on with a grin.  It was just too much fun to poke fun at the elf; and just as fun to see the youngest knight trying to be smooth about what he was doing.<br/><br/>She however, wanted to say that the elf needed to stop taking things so seriously.  The world might be having troubles now but the important thing was not to get bogged down by it all. Darkness only wins if there's an absence of light afterall.  "And if I wanted to my friend, I'd drag you with me to have some kind of amusement if I thought it might help you but i'm kind of hurt by the fact you have no sense of humor." Ally sighed and went into the Inn/tavern with the rest of them.  Once they got their room keys, Altima went off to her own room to unload all the stuff she was carrying with her in the form of supplies and even a tent attached to a backpack of sorts.<br/><br/>Altima would eventually change into something more casual and headed down to the baths out back and stripped down before stepping into the steaming hot spring with a loud sigh of contentment and splashed out before she sat down to lean against the ledge. "This is so much better..." She said, unbraiding her hair to let it hang loose, floating ontop of the water that was coming just high enough on her to conceal most of her rather ...huge breasts, only leaving the top side of tehm visible.
