[O] Little Lost Child

Tuzik gave an excited whine as Tayce opened the door, nudging forward to try and push his head through the small crack in the door, licking at her hand eagerly.

It had been a long while since he had last seen the woman, he had missed her, that much was fairly obvious from the way his tail beat against the ground loudly.

"Tuz, down."

He laid a hand on the HellHound's neck as he tried to push past him to get to Tayce. "Sit," he ordered, blue eyes turning down to Tuzik.

His attention turned back to the young Necromancer and he gave a small smile. "Evening, Tayce. Can I talk to you?"

His eyes flickered to his little group then back to the woman, trying to signal that he wanted to talk without everyone around. He needed to sit down and talk to just her.

Mialina's brow rose in question, her arms crossing over her chest. So he wasn't just being considerate and escorting her, it was to talk to this Tayce. What did he expect her to do, wander around the castle she knew nothing about? Or sit in the hall and twiddle her thumbs? She had been so blunt of her need for a bath.

The child had assumed that introductions were first on his mind, but she knew when she was being snubbed. She hesitated to calling Tuzik to come with her, since he would be forced to wait outside too. Wandering alone in an unknown building did not have its appeal, but she refused to make more of a connection than she already had.

Eyes narrowing, she turned on her heel. She at least knew where her bed was to be, no matter if Tayce wouldn't know what strange girl would be appearing later in the night.

Tayce  could not help but smile when she saw how excited Tuzik was to see her.  He was such a good hound.  She reached down and pet him sofly, letting her hands run through his fur.  

Even after Lyo had sat Tuzik down she continued to pet him idly, turning her attention up to the handsome blond man.  

"What is it?" She asked, wondering what he had gotten up to now.  Could the little girl be a demon he summoned?  Perhaps a corpse?  If so that was very impressive, she didn't look like she'd rotted at all.
