Craig about choked on the surfing werewolf comment, a blush rising up and around his neck. he sat down beside peg, keeping a keen eye on the dogs, he could swear they were half shark the way their were circling. Peg was friendly, laid back and easy going, easy on the eyes as well, and that caused the occasional distraction.  He sat beside her on the blanket, looking at her, just looking. Part of it was as a mage, part of the look had the curiosity of a child, and there was a great deal of a man that saw the woman there.<br/><br/><em>You are so alive, so... unafraid. You already trust me enough to use a word from legend, that other would answer with 'yeah...sure.' It.... you are rather amazing. Would you believe that I have all sorts of questions I want to ask that I am afraid to because I don't want you to leave, or to throw me out on my ass?</em><br/><br/>He smiled, and took a bite from the sandwich, reaching into the bag to grab a slice of bacon for each of the circling pack, tossing one to each. he didn't seem alarmed, he was obviously enjoying himself even with the absudity of the situation. After a drink from his own tea he answered her questions.her<br/><br/><em>There a few places to in Newport, Va Beach and also Norfolk that are good for live music. Depends on if you want local talent or a national act, also if you want to fight a meat market or dodge a cover charge. I imagine you have no problem with people wanting to buy you drinks.</em><br/><br/>He took another bite and tossed another rasher of bacon to each dog, watching the surf roll as the tide began to change. He had grown up in these waters and so it was rare for him not to know the signs of their coming and going. He sat tailor fashion, legs crossed as he ate. It was just a good feeling to be out, and for the first time Peg might catch his true scent without the neoprene of the bodyglove overriding it. It was an earthy smell, simple and uncomplicated,  not altered by a mass of chemicals from gel and spays. She could almost smell the tan on his skin as he sat there.<br/><br/><em>No on the work tonight, I do a shift that is 72 hours on then 48 hours off. They don't run EMT and Search and Rescue like full five day shifts, the grind would be to much. So it is three days at the station, then two days off. And for fun, I guess I like to surf with anyone, including werewolves, or sometimes alone. I read a lot, and I stay outside. I like rollerblading and volleyball, and then on the occasion I will head farther into Virginia and do camping or just hanging out in general. I guess I am the outdoorsy type.</em><br/><br/>He wasn't afraid of the word werewolf, Or Uratha for that matter, not that he was going to mention the second name. Who was he to judge, how would he explain a Thyrsus of the Primal Wild to her, scion of the stone tower, Shaman on the path of ecstasy?  Yeah, titles for another time. Though he did say it a little quieter, for some reason he wanted to make sure there were alone, that it was just them and her dogs. With that he let his mind focus and release a spell, sending out the knowledge of life arcana to the area around them, searching for other things that were alive, especially human or something else supernatural.(1) She shouldn't be able to sense the magic, but if it came back it was only them, then he would explain then what he had done.<br/><br/><br/><br/>2010-06-02 10:47:45   -Lugh- Craig Havelin rolls 5 dice to Sense Life -1    10,5,10,4,3, 5,10,3 (3 successes)
