Having a new home took some time getting used to. Vox Machina used to spent their days sleeping out in the wild or, on lucky days, at an inn. Of course the ones who adapted pretty quickly were Keyleth, Percy and maybe Scanlan. Grog and Pike didn't really act that differently to their new home. But the twins and Miel? Well, they had spent most of their years out in wild, since they were kids. The three hadn't a home in years. So it took them a little longer to adjust.
"Good morning everyone!" Keyleth announced happily when she entered the dinning area, where everyone was
The rest of the group looked at her in confusion at her perkiness so early in the morning
She then noticed Vax next to her, since he was just getting his food, "oh, good morning Vax" she said happily, hoping for a happier reply...which she did not get. All she got was a muffled 'morning' from him since he had bread in his mouth.
Vax made his way to the table, about to sit in front of Miel, when Grog, still eating, brought his fist out and hit him in the groin. Vax whimpered as he dropped everything and he too fell down
"Seven to Two" Grog said happily
"Damn it, Grog, he still needs that!" Miel yelled as she kicked him under the table
Grog whimpered lightly, "and one for Miel"
"I never agreed to this stupid game" Vax growled as he tried to stand up
"You know, you can just show his dick the kindness it will need at the end of the day, Miel" Scanlan chuckled, barley dodging a kitchen knife that the female half-elf threw.
"Must you?" Percy asked, annoyed at the how childish his team mates could be
"We can't all be aloof tight-asses, de Rolo" Scanlan muttered with his mouth full of chicken
"I'm simply suggesting you could all benefit from some well-practiced restraint" Percy said
"Emotions aren't meant to be bottled up" Vex said as she hugged Trinket, "maybe you should cut loose once in a while"
"Is that the same line you told Vax so he could 'cut loose' with Miel last night?" Scanlan chuckled
Miel and Vax blushed in embarrassment and anger. "Scanlan, you ducking pervert!" Miel yelled, "were you listening!?"
"Hey I can't help it if I woke up in the middle of the night, happened to walk out for some water and happened to hear you two" he laughed
The couple glared daggers at him. Vax summoned his dagger and Miel grabbed Grog's knife, but before they could jump on the gnome, they heard pounding coming from the front door.
"Hello? Vox Machina?" They heard a voice come in, "uh, are you there?"
The group got up and tried to open the door, but it wouldn't budge.
"It's stuck" Keyleth said and the rest started pounding, kicking, pushing and pulling
"Urg! Fucking doors" Scanlan grunted
"These old hinges are rusted" Vex said
"I told you guys we should've checked this old ass castle earlier" Miel growled
"Grog, give it a little shove?" Pike asked
"Yep, one sec" Grog said and he kicked the door so hard that it flew past Allura.
"Lady Allura" Vax chuckled, "welcome. Hope you didn't feel the need to bring a housewarming present"
"I didn't" she simply replied, "alas, I'm only here to remind you that Sovereign Uriel expects you at his dinner"
