"Heh." Bane flashes the weaselmaid a grin, holding her paw gently as he sets the plastic spoon down into the hot soup with his other one. "Either that, or there's no impossibility to stop believing in." He then gave a wink of assurance again as if to say that whatever they faced, they could overcome it. After all, if you put your mind to anything, pretty much anything can be accomplished.

Vrelt smiled slightly after Jane kissed him, what would his grandmother think of him know? She always said it would take some type of serious work to straighten him out, and along with that, getting married. So far his grandmother's words proved true as he was far more grown up after ending up in the Zone, plus meeting Jane was already having an effect on him. He answered her question after a few seconds of consideration. "I would normally say "The Works," but we probably don't have all of that stuff. So just sausage, lots of cheese, and whatever else they have that remotely resembles American toppings." Vrelt stood up and walked over to where Jane was preparing the pizza, he felt wrong to just sit there while she did all the work, so the ferret grabbed a pepper shaker and sprinkled some of the pepper on his share of the pizza. He smiled, "I can't eat pizza without adding a bit of pepper to it. It's my personal touch."

"We'll do it," Anna whispered confidently. How could she not be confident when looking into those eyes? After a moment she looked down again and took another bite of her soup. "So now all we have to do is find a flying ship."
Jayne smiled at Sev as if thanking him. Then she addressed Vrelt. "You take care of the cheese and I'll do the sausage." She picked up the block of cheese and a grater and handed them to the ferret. When she did this a sparkle on the counter caught her eye. "What's this?" She lifted the ring gently between two of her claws and looked back and forth between the two males.

"What?" asked Sev, even though he knew what 'it' was. "Oh, that! I picked that up near the whirlwind on our way here. I thought maybe you could use a normal ring instead of a pop-can tab." he said, shrugging. Its not as if he needed it in this forsaken hellhole.

"Sure." Vrelt took the cheese and the grater from Jane and started adding the topping to the pizza, when the ring was discovered. The ferret studied the ring for several moments before shrugging his shoulders, "Quite frankly, I liked the first "ring" better." He wasn't joking like he normally did when he said this; he really did like the first ring more than the one Sev found, for it came from his heart when this new one was nothing more than somebeast's lost ring. Vrelt turned back to his assignment with the pizza, "It's fine if you want to wear that one though, Jane."
((Yeah, I know. My post isn't much better. Stupid shortness.))

Jane set down the ring, took back the items she had just given to Vrelt and placed them on the on the table also. Then she took both Vrelt's paws in hers and began to drag him over to a more secluded spot. "Give us a second, will you?" she asked Sev.
Once she had him alone, Jane forced Vrelt to look her in the eye. "I love the ring you gave me. I will treasure it for as long as I live. I will tell our child the story of how you gave it to me." She stroked his face with one paw. "I'm sure Sev was just trying to be nice and give us something special. If you don't want me to wear it though, I'll pretend like I never saw it." She smiled. "Maybe we can give it to Bane. The way he was looking at Anna, maybe he'll find a good use for it."

Vrelt offered no resistance as Jane took him to a secluded spot out of Sev's range of hearing, his only problem was about his quick reaction to replacing the first "ring." Now that he thought about it, it was rather immature for him to act that way, but his action did have a basis, and Jane voiced that. "That sounds like a good idea. But if you want to wear that ring, it doesn't bother me a bit." With a slight smile he spoke again, "I don't know why I acted like that in front of Sev. If anything, you might wear it for him."
Quite frankly, Vrelt felt foolish over his outburst back there, but at least Jane understood. He repeated her gesture and gently traced his paw over one side of her face, "We should get back to cooking now I guess." To tell the truth, he didn't want to do any such thing, Vrelt would have preferred to stay right where he was with Jane over working on that pizza. He really had grown up since being out here, any other time he would have rushed to get his favorite food prepared, it was different now, though.

Jayne smiled and closed her eyes briefly at his touch. She wasn't in a hurry to be in any other company, either. "Alright," she sighed reluctantly. Then before turning to go back to their meal preparation, she kissed him once more quickly. "And about that ring. I only want to wear it if you're the one to put it on my paw. Maybe at the ceremony at the chapel if they let us?"

"That would be perfect, Jayne." Vrelt could picture that happening now, he visualized the day when he put that ring on her finger. The ferret wished his grandmother was here though, she would be delighted by knowing her once wild grandson was going to settle down and get married, too bad they were stuck in the Zone for now. He gave her a smile as he took her paw, and led her back toward the food they were preparing. They could discuss their plans later, after they were done here, and away from Sev. Vrelt let go of her paw and resumed what he was doing before, spreading cheese over the pizza.
((I got tired of waiting on Silas or Kal to post, so I went ahead and did it. lol))

"We'll do it," Anna whispered confidently. How could she not be confident when looking into those eyes? After a moment she looked down again and took another bite of her soup. "So now all we have to do is find a flying ship." "Shouldn't be that hard to find around here, right?" Bane commented jokingly, feeling perfectly at ease as a subtle gust of wind ruffled the leaves of the trees and the guitarist near the fountain started strumming his instrument again. The otter behind the cash register at the food stand sighed and set his elbows on the counter, glancing upward to see clouds blowing in from afar. Rain was probably on its way, he decided. Meanwhile Bane decided to finish off his soup as well, the tasty liquid warming him up a little.

Anna shivered slightly when the breeze ruffled her fur. She wished again that she had been able to grab a few more things when they had ran away from the military complex. A jacket would have been nice now. Or . . . she looked up at Bane again. Being held in his arms would be very warm. The weaselmaid blushed at the thought and forced her concentration back down on her bowl. She shoveled spoonful after spoonful into her mouth so she wouldn't be able to answer if he spoke to her. When the bowl was empty her nerves had still not completely calmed.
She shivered at another gust of wind but the cool breeze did nothing to abate the blush on her cheeks.
Jane was still smiling as she silently resumed the food preparation but she saw the ring there on the table again and realized that Sev deserved some sort of explanation about what they had decided. She picked up the small gold circlet and looked at it. She could feel Vrelt's eyes on her and wondered if he thought she had changed her mind about putting it on now.
The ferretmaid smiled at him reassuringly and then turned to Sev. "Could you hold it for us until we're ready for it?" It was a simple question that implied that they did want to accept his gift but that they wanted to save the giving for a special occasion.

Bane, having finished his soup a minute or two beforepaw, felt the chill in the wind as well, the sun disappearing behind the clouds. He sighed and got up out of his seat. "Getting cold?" He asked the pretty weaselmaid, witnessing her shiver a little. After a second or two his awkward thought dissipated, and a new emotion took its place. "Uhm, we could walk about, or... or head inside if you like..." He offered, seeing the clouds bearing towards them rather fast as he looked back to retrieve his bowl and spoon to be thrown away later.

"Just promise me that if I die, you'll still wear it." Sev was being dead serious. He was a soldier. Soldiers died. It was a fact of war. And given his skill, he'd be fighting until his death. He probably wouldn't live to see the end of his duty or retirement.

Anna shrugged off his concern with a shy smile. She didn't really care what they did as long as she was able to stay in his company. "I wouldn't mind a tour." She looked up at him expectantly while she stood and gathered her own bowl and spoon for disposal. "And we could stay out at least until it starts to rain." She looked up into the sky where the dark clouds were gathering.
Jane's eyes widened. She wasn't sure quite sure how to respond to the hare. She glanced at Vrelt quickly for help and then smiled reassuringly back at Sev. "Of course I will. It's just that we were sort of hoping. . ." She gave Vrelt another quick glance to see if she minded him telling their plan. But then she figured it couldn't hurt since Sev was the one who had started the rumors in the first place. "There's that chapel out there, and we thought maybe that a renewal of our vows might be a good chance for the giving of a new ring. Of course . . ." She took Vrelt's cheesy paw in her own and smiled. "It would really be the first time for us." She smiled. "But those poor creatures out there need not know that. It might bring some happiness into their otherwise dreary lives."
Her eyes were fully on Vrelt now and her smile promised that she was totally in earnest. This isn't just for them, her eyes silently told him. But she had always dreamed of having a church wedding. And if they were going to do this right she wanted their to be some sort of reality behind the story.
