Ellie continued to the dining hall, she could both hear and see Nick ahead of her but she didn't try to catch up. She had made few friends in this place after her recovery, and it was often painfully aware when she ended up more often then not alone. It wasn't necessarily for lack of trying, she suspected it had more to do with the lose of her best friend from before. She didn't often say his name, it just made her sadder.

The dining hall was empty when Aralyn entered, besides herself and the cooks. She specially requested her usual meal, a variety of seafood, and took seat at a table as she waited for it to be served to her.

Nick went through into the dining hall, giving only a quick glance behind him as Ellie came into view. Aralyn was up ahead and he slid his gaze to her. Her salty scent trailed behind and he followed her to the counter. When she took a seat by herself—the room was empty besides her and the woman at the door—he gave it only a second's thought before slipping into the seat across after placing his order. "Hello," he said, tone slow, cautious, "mind if I join you?"

Samantha pushed off the doorframe and watched as Nick passed then Ellie came into view. Well wasn't this going to be a little party. "Hullo," she said, offering a stiff grin.

Victor wasn't paying attention, he was already beginning his victory dance, getting low to the ground in slow movements before he exploded into dancing. When he did, it was a flurry of movement;he was quite the accomplished dancer. He had taken dancing lessons a long time ago, but nobody had to know that.

Lucy rolled her eyes at his antics. "Idiot," she muttered under her breath. "You haven't won yet." While he was doing whatever thing he was doing, she hit the puck hard, sending it flying across and scoring. Finally.

" A landmark that was created for the entrance for the 1889 world fair and was named after its engineer Gastave Eiffel. So now you know more about the "great French landmark". Ashton stated with a charming smile as she walked with her hands clasped behind her back.

"Very wise of you indeed. " Dyrus informed with humor as he continued down to the bottom. Once there, he set her back on her feet carefully and offered out his hand to her agian.

Allen chuckled at the way she pronounced the name. "You sure you aren't French?" He asked with a grin. "You say it so perfectly French-like."

Haley steadied herself using his forearm as she looked around. "Well, this is a sight for sore eyes," she said, with a whistle of admiration as she looked around. Taking the proffered hand, she pulled him along as she moved towards the edge of the clear blue water. "It's...stunning."

(Well actually I am pretty sure Layla and Vasper are eating in the corner or something. I know they be munching on some pork rinds, I assumed it was in the dining hall. lol )

Ellie looked up as Nick went and sat down next to Aralyn and then looked to Sam. "Hi." She said simply returning her smile, although she sensed that Sam's was only to be polite. She moved to get some food, mostly snack items, as she had no desire to eat a whole meal. When she had gathered what she wanted she moved to an end of the table that was empty and took a seat. "Would you like to sit with me?" She offered to Sam as she came into the room.

Alexis lazily opened an eye to watch the nurse enter, then lifted her head to clean her paws while she listened to what was being said.

Anne poked her head in, the rest of her soon following when she saw that Dimitri was awake and up. "How are things going in here?" She asked, glancing between the two men.

"Well, he's awake and feeling better, I was just checking his blood to see what the virus was doing." Michael said with a shrug

Anne turned her gaze fully to Dimitri. "Do you feel well enough to talk? There's a pair at the door asking for you. They didn't say what exactly. I can have them come back later if you'd prefer."

"I suppose so. I could use a distraction to be honest. " Dimitri replied as he looked to the nurse.

Michael nodded and turned to check out the blood sample to see how it looked before he could discharge Dimitri.

Areum blushed some more at that, before replying with a shy smile "Guess I am all of those things then." She laid down on his chest before growling softly, running her hand over the part of his chest that she wasn't on.

Rowan smiled at her again, raising a hand to brush through her hair gently. "You are." He assured her.

"Well If you do plan on tearing this thing down, give me a warning man, and I'll get out of your way," Ares said, with a crooked grin. Hearing Andorra's words, his jovial countenance flickered slightly. If she was about to read him the riot act, So help him. He quickly regained his composure and straightened in his seat. Poured some more soda for himself to have something to look at while he spoke. "Well, I've talked to a few people, narrowed down my list, you know. Not much to go on, unfortunately. Either it was someone bigger and stronger than the tiger, or they had an advantage he didn't. Surprise, probably. Bet he didn't see it coming. I haven't been back to the office, but last I hear, your ole pal Dimitri was out like a light and the doc was checking for virus." He leaned back and sipped his drink as he met her gaze finally.

Andorra sighed and nodded as she finished up her tea. When she got up with her plate and glass, she said, "Yeah, I that would have to be the only way someone could best Dimitri. I've seen him in action and it was scary." She then turned to Adrian and Willow. "Thanks for the hospitality. It was appreciated. " She before heading to the kitchen to wash her plate and glass.

Adrian gave Ares a grin at his comment and nodded. "Will do pal." He said with a chuckle as he leaned down and kissed Willow on the head as he tightened his arm around her. "You like your pizza? Worth the wait and interesting company?" He murmured quietly in her ear with a grin. As he spoke he listened to what Ares said about their friend Dimitri, he didn't know the man but the fact that he had been attacked made him nervous.

Willow smiled and looked up to give him a kiss. "Yes, I do and yes it is." She said lovingly to him. She glanced to Andorra and said, "You're welcome. "
