If Rosa was expecting to find Donato's cheek warm, she was mistaken. Although, one supposes that if she checked now, she would find it so... "What? No!" He cried indignantly. "I-" he gave up and smiled wanly. "Forget it."

::His reaction was worth it; as many a beast's head would turn, but briefly, she only hoped she wouldn't have got him in too much trouble from anybeast, but she couldn't help giggling as she tried to reply back, just about managing it::
Oui... as to your wishing...

Jamie laughed, glancing across the table at Donato. He winked at the other hare. "Look at that, barely an hour back at Redwall an' you've already got the gels." He flicked a glance to Rosa then turned back to Donato. "Even the pretty married ones," he grinned.
There was too much noise and too much confusion to really have a conversation with Sasha: Who didn't seem to be in a talkative mood anyway. She had glanced over at Donato just as Rosa decided to swoop down and peck him on the cheek.
Eula lifted an eyebrow and decided to amble over with a smirk on her face. "Tsk tsk Rosa. Infidelity, and with your own child in your arms," she said jokingly. Not to mention the child wasn't even CASTOR'S anyway. Rosa was just a player all around.
She had arrived in enough time to hear Jamie's joking remark, to which she replied "Oh, don't go encouraging this activity." This was Eula's way of being jealous by using humor to appear not jealous. Yes, oh so clever Eula.

Donato stood with his cheeks flaming under his fur. Still more so when Eula came back. He opened his mouth to protest, then a wickedly amusing possibility flicked across his mind. Putting an arm around the older skunkmum's waist, he looked at Eula and Jamie. "You won't tell Castor, will you? It would just ruin our little secret."

((XD Look what I have begun! ))
::She couldn't stop herself laughing at what she had begun; as more heads had turned upon them; but she quietened herself down simply for the sake of the smallest sign of a squirm in her arm, and unable to free either arm to motion for silence, she got up again; and spoke near whispering::
Well... if you are not to be readying with the knotting tie, I may just having to keep Monsieur Donato entertained... ::She said it near seductively, in a voice only those about her knew could be joking, as she took one last moment to nod towards them both:: Es great to seeing you return... all and one...
But now...
I needing to placing Antoine to sleep... meanwhile, be informing Castor he has much... competition... ::With a last giggle, she stepped back and moved quietly away, barely suppressing her giggle fit upon her somewhat wicked joke::
::With only Jasmine shaking her head anymore:: Honestly... if Castor was what he was like when she was stuck in my infirmary, I hate to think what the two will be like now she's out of all those bandages AND with a mention of competition...
Ehh... ye cannae go an' let love waste away; 's what I'd be away doin' if I were yinger... catch anythin' tha' moves an- ::SMACK:: Ah-yaaaaah!!!! Whuzzat fer?!?!?! Furrssakes, ah thoughtcha were a medic!!!!
'Aye', and also the Abbess' mother... so I'd advise you keep that tongue in your mouth between meals unless you've made sure to wash it... ::She gave a good decent pat once more on the finished work of Fenya's leg, watching the other vixen wince each time::

::She curtsied slowly with the same respect, standing with her smile held; glancing at Fenya and then Eula alternately:: I'm honored; and hopeful what you've heard was certainly good...
I may not have heard much of you, but I know a good beast as when I see them; and that itself counts for more than fame or victory... both of which I'd say anybeast who returns alive from a battle at Salamandastron deserves...
The two of you together again, are welcome here as long as you wish... you may leave as you will anytime... however... I do believe another healer around here would be welcome until Shune's grown a few more seasons experience with me...
Speaking of whom, I believe it's best we get you upstairs now, like it or not...
Shune!!! ::She suddenly called out for her trusted understudy to hopefully appear::

For a moment, Eula was shocked by Donato's unexpected boldness. She stood there for a moment, staring at him in disbelief, then started laughing as Rosa whispered and moved off. "Gee Donato, I hope your clandestine affairs go over well." As she said this, she looked past him and smirked.
"Aye, me too," replied a creature with a slight nautical twinge. While Donato had had his back turned with his arm around Rosa, Castor had snuck up and took a seat, keeping low to avoid Rosa's sight. When she had moved off, Castor had sat up and spoke from right beside the younger hare, hoping to get a bit of a startled rise from him. He winked playfully at Donato as he worked on a slice of pie.
When Jasmine's gaze fell on Eula, she had to smother a grin at the comment that what Ather had heard was all good. "Oh Jasmine, we sung your praises. After all, we worship the ground you walk on."
Ever the faithful and dependable little infirmary assistant, Shune seemed to materialize from nowhere, coming to stand in front of Jasmine. The little ottermaid looked up at Jasmine, quickly finishing up a strawberry she had plucked from the dinner table. She gazed up with her large brown eyes and gave a small smile. "Hi."

I think we'll be staying here...if thats alright? ::Ather spoke up, his sister giving a nod beside him. There wasn't much else out there for them; Their home was destroyed and their parents were dead. Where else could they go? The only people they knew were here, now::
::He gave a laugh at Eula's remark:: Yes...more or less what she said. ::he smiled. His gaze turned to the little dibbun finishing off a strawberry::
You've got competition, Ather. ::Terra gave him a gentle nudge in the ribs::
Right he does. ::Constantine grinned, leaning down to pat Shune's head::

A startled rise he did get. Donato jumped to hear a voice so close beside him. About to blurt out an explanation, he caught Castor's wink, paused for a moment, then started to laugh. The crazy mixture of emotions that had hit him over the course of the day had taken their toll on him, for sure, and it was a few minutes before he was able to stop.
Meantime, a certain young hedgehog had toddled over and climbed onto the bench on Donato's other side, and now sat eating out of his plate without so much as an 'if-you-please.' "Hi Eu'a." She looked at Donato with all the precocious dryness she could muster, then looked back to Eula. "Wuzz'ee laughing at?"

((Because we need the cute factor.))
So's....so's then whu 'appened?!?!? ::the little mouse squeaked, sitting in the chair nearest Fenya, still lingering onto the bit of story she had left off at. Whatever else was going on in the hall, Woodrow didn't care. His food was left cold on his plate a few seats down, seeing as how he wasn't hungry.
Lifting up his paw, which was covered by the large sleeve of his dark blue shirt, he straightened the paper hat he had dawned on his head, making sure it was settled nicely between his ears::
Didja get tha nasty scorpions? Didja? How many was there?

::Jasmine looked back to Eula, a slight quiver indicating her lip fighting to stay closed against laughing at the statement, nay idea of what Eula was saying:: Indeed. ::Was all she managed before her paw fell upon Shune, her shoulder instead::
I need my trusted understudy to help take care of a shoulder wound here...
Shune, Ather and you know Terra already perhaps...
But if you'd all care to follow me up towards the infirmary now? It'll be a little quieter than down here at least...
::Finally free of Jasmine and her perpetual wrappings, Fenya's ear perked at the question; and a wide grin split her face as she slowly leaned in towards the gather dibbuns, speaking now in such a low and whispered voice it commanded attention to all who wished her story heard more::
Dozens...scores!!! A hundred in all!!! And one mean ole' mama scorpion... ooooh you may think yon Jas-foxgirl is tough with her physickin'... but this thing came scrumping; and TRUMPING down upon yon mountain there... n' there's me 'a course having pulled off all her kiddies tails; with all of 'em still in me flippin' paw!!!
So she comes at me with a blood red fire in her eye... and I stand there... the only thing afore the mountain and the beast... and I know... tis' all down to me... so I scream at the top of me voice, n' RUSH her with a scorpion tail in each p- ::She stopped and thought that over, examining her armless shoulder:: Sorry- with ALL the tails in me paw; and start whippin' away at her!!! ::And so forth it was continuing...::

Eula watched Donato for a few moments, lifting her eyebrows as he just kept on laughing. Sure the situation had been funny, but not THAT funny. She leaned her paw on the back on his chair and looked at Julia with a shrug. "No idea, ask him."
Shune walked over to Ather and smiled a him. She took his paw and shook it herself, as if in greeting. "Nice t'meet you," she said in a small, sweet voice. Still holding onto his paw, she led him after Jasmine. "Come on, Miss Jas'm wants us to follow her." With her free paw she also beckoned Terra to come along up to the infirmary.
Eula looked 'round over at Fenya again, noting the group of Dibbuns that gathered, listening in an excited buzz to the vixen's preposterous retelling of the last few weeks' events. She had neither the heart nor the energy to bother correcting Fenya.

::He seemed to be living off of each word the fox spoke, completely transfixed by the description of the battle. In the back of his mind, Woodrow pondered if he'd ever be in such a grand battle.::
Oh, well then, yes...alright ::He smiled, allowing himself to be tugged along by the little assistant. Jasmine seemed to trust her; although small, she must have known was she was doing. Or so Ather hoped::
::Terra followed along after her brother, not caring about missing the festivities. She wanted to know how badly Ather had been hurt, first of all, and second...he wanted to know all about his travels. Asking him while he was being patched up seemed like the perfect idea::
