Dance Party

[Nox]

Nik drew upon the power and Nox's gaze went to him but before he could say anything Bas was jerking him around and questioning his arm. He'd tell Bas of course - he knew all about the dangers of the tunnels - he'd been with him when there was an attack once upon a time. But how did he explain it while Nik was actively listening? Bas nodded to the bar, but Nox really didn't want to go. He wanted to dance, and reliving the danger was not one of those things he wanted to do.

Nox grinned and spoke loud enough for everyone both men to hear. "I lost it in poker game. Bet an arm. He bet a leg, and I lost." He couldn't help the soft chuckle to himself. "It's a long story and I don't want to tell it now. I want to dance."

Nox took a sip of his beer and noticed it was empty. He reached through the sludge and grasped the power and quickly filled the brown bottle with water and then let it all go. He took another long drink of it. He knew both men would have seen his display and he hoped they wouldn't ruin any game that it may need to be played but it didn't matter anyway. As long as the Atharim didn't show up here because of showing off up on stage they'd probably be alright. But Nox kept his guard up. Which made the dancing suck, he couldn't fall into the music and just let it take over again. Maybe he should tell the tale.
