He groaned, grabbing the pillow and stuffing it over his face. "Keep your voice down, Kaia. I don't want everyone to know." He refused to admit that her voice was making his head throb painfully.

"Rikard..." Kaia's tone was an exasperated one, speaking more softly than she had done before. "Did you not think that they would eventually notice that the chief and the er... 'Viking of the moment'-" Air quotes. "-Had disappeared? Especially since I assume that you've only just arrived."

The Chief winced. "Whatever you're thinking, it didn't happen." He removed the pillow, squinting at the light that streamed through his window. "We just got very drunk and decided to go on a field trip."

"You're an idiot." She huffed, shaking her head and pulling a face. "Didn't we talk earlier that day about the threat of the Outsiders? And then you go gallivanting off to who knows where, completely drunk off your asses."

"I was completely paraletic," he grumbled. "Blame the alcohol. Anyway, we're both fine and nothing happened, so hopefully everything can go back to normal now."

"Hopefully?" She groaned and rested a hand against her face. "Do you have any idea how many vikings asked me if you were 'finally getting some', last night?"

Rikard turned a bright shade of red and turned over in his bed to hide it, rather unsuccessfully. "I bloody hate Vikings," he groaned at last.

"You are one." Kaia pointed out unhelpfully, smiling lightly as she could practically feel the embarrassment radiating from him. "But..." She pulled up a chair and leaned forwards, almost eagerly. "What actually happened last night?"

"I decided it would be a good idea to take Ismael - without a saddle, of course - down to the beach cove at the base of the cliff. We got there and we talked for a bit before we crashed, although I'm struggling to remember a lot of it." Rikard cleared his throat, still slightly hoarse. "Not one of my finest moments."

"Do you like her?" Kaia asked, tipping the chair precariously as she leaned closer to observe his facial movements. "As in like like her?"

"She's younger than me, Kaia," he said, almost as if that settled things. "And I'm the Chief."

She raised an eyebrow as if waiting for his point and sighed when he finished speaking. "What does being chief have to do with anything? It's not like-" Kaia's eyes narrowed dangerously for a brief moment. "- like our... Father didn't find a partner because he was chief. Anyway, I'll drop the issue, you didn't do anything questionable, right?"

"I've already told you, nothing happened," he said, casting her a glare over his shoulder. At least, nothing I can remember. And Evalda seemed fairly certain that nothing happened.

Kaia merely smiled sweetly in return, bringing her knees up and hopping onto the chair. "You don't sound too sure about that. Ah, hold up." She swung forwards again, a knowing look flashing through her eyes. "Aren't you... concerned about what other people are going to say?"

"Of course I'm concerned," he said briskly. "I'm more worried about Evalda's honour than my own dignity, but either way people will talk." Rikard glanced at her critically. "Don't you have something to be doing, anyway?

"Probably." Kaia admitted with a shrug as the chair fell back safely on all four legs with a gentle thud. "What are the Chief's orders?"

He groaned as the sound of the chair legs reverberated around his head. "Just... Take out a patrol and scout for the Outsiders. Make sure to take the best Vikings we have, providing they're sobered up enough."

"You clearly haven't." She noted with a frown, moving towards the window that Astor had poked his scaly head through. "Should I bring a bucket of ice water next time? I thought that you knew your limit."

"It's not that simple," he muttered. "And no, thank you. It would be nice if you stayed away and let me catch up on my sleep, to be perfectly honest."

"Suit yourself." She had one leg out of the window with a small smile plastered across her face when she paused and turned to look at him again. "What do we do if we encounter any Outsiders?"
