"Yeah, yeah I think I remember her. And please, if you would, show me the path." Q said/asked, worried Artemis wouldnt remember him.
"How's the tea by the way?" he asked in a more friendly tone.
English
-
"Great! I usually don't drink tea, but this is pretty good." Bedlam stood up and began walking. "Come on, I bet she'd be happy to meet an old friend."
-
"Thanks." Q said with a bit of a smile. He followed Bedlam where he walked, trying not to think too much. "I hope so.." he said, his ears flattening a bit.
-
"I know so, man. You'll probably like how...you know what? I'm not spoiling it." The two of them walked out of the Dojo and towards the nearby woods.
-
"Whoo hoo, suspense." Q said with a chuckle, following along the path.
-
Bedlam would lead his newly found friend deep into the forest until they came across an old, abandoned looking tree house. "Have fun waiting. I'm not staying." He started to walk back.
-
"Okay then. Enjoy the magic tea." Q said with a smug smile before walking closer to the treehouse. "Well, this looks promising." he said quietly to himself, looking up at it. "Anyone home?"
-
"Q!" He was instantly tacked to the ground as he heard a familiar voice yell his name. "Its been so long!" Artemis was on top of him, she looked far more...mature than the last time they met. She was taller, had an athletic build, her used to be flat chest now came out to be a rather decent size, and her body as a whole looked like a top shape low 20's girl.
-
"Arty!" he exclaimed from the ground, wrapping his arms around her in a hug. "Holy crap its been forever!" he exclaimed, letting himself feel joyful. He was truly happy to see her again, his tail thumping on the ground wildly.
-
She hugged him back, her dirty black shirt smearing some dirt onto Q. "I missed you! Ugh! We need to catch up!" Arty got off of him and extended a hand to help him up.
-
He took her hand an pulled himself up with ease, as he seemed to be as light as a feather for a second. "Heh heh, yeah. I havent been up to much. Mostly just taking care of the kids and re-learning how to do a few tricks I had forgotten over the years. " he said with a shrug. "How've you been? What's been going on?" he asks curiously.
-
Artemis laughed, shrugging. "Where do I even begin? Uhh..." From behind her, a lightsaber flew into Artemis' hand. "I was trained as a jedi, got married, lost my memory, then lost said spouse, now I'm dating my best friend, I've been training almost nonstop, and Sasha had kids!" Artemis stood there with a wide smile, having gone through the list quickly.
-
Q stood dumbfounded for a moment before blinking once, his ears twitching. "Well, uh, thats a lot." he noted, unsure of what to make of it all. "Jedi werewolf. That's a first." he said with a chuckle, smiling again.
-
She giggled and nodded. "My father-in-law taught me. He was a nice man....Anyway, I still can't turn into a wolf so I'm technically not a werewolf, Q."
-
"Eh, still." he said with a shrug. He took a sip from his cup, which had somehow refilled since he was tackled. "How've you been feeling? The last time I saw you.." he said, trailing off. He didn't want to upset her, but he needed to know.
-
"What do you mean?" She raised a brow. "I feel fine at the moment. I mean, a bit tired from hunting, but that's it."
-
"Nevermind then, I must be thinking of someone else.." he said, rubbing his forehead as his gaze seemed to wander off, almost glossing over before his attention returned to her. "So, how have things been around here? I haven't been paying too much attention to things."
-
"Oh, y'know...lots of invasions and death." She sighed. "Somehow I've gotten out of my depression despite all of the sh*t going on. I think it's the fact I had a lot of support."
-
Q looked glum at the mention of invasions and death. He sighed as well, his ears flattening. "Well, I'm happy you were able to find peace." he said, a small smile crossing his face as he folds his arms, rubbing them.
-
"Well, I'm as close to peace as a girl my age can." She chuckled. "My girlfriend is a bit...crazy. She thinks the whole world and everything in it isn't real or something."
-
"Well, I suppose that depends on your view of reality. Even if it isn't real, why should it matter?" Q said with a shrug.
-
"Yeah, I dunno. She takes a lot of drugs....I worry a lot." Arty rolled her eyes. "Probably too much."
-
"Well, that's certainly something to worry about." he said before taking another long sip of his tea, holding up a finger to let her know he wasn't finished talking. Once done sipping, he finished "How does her body react to the drugs? I know there's a couple folks around here that barely feel the negative effects, but still." As he talked, he walked over to a relatively flat rock, sitting on it with his legs crossed.
