Neve gave him a blink and a pursed lipped look. What was this about following in his fathers footsteps and having too much power? She looked him over hardly saw any level of power in him that could excel what men and goverments desired. However...she did get a show of his abilites when he took down the mage Ancano...She jumped slightly when he cracked the egg open to reveal a dead spider. She gave a disgusted look and quickly shook her hands rubbing them on her robe as if to wash away the memory of touching it. Those little buggers were disgusting!
"Aw but Atrious, I thought we were already such good friends." She said with a sacrastic cute voice before she peeked at what he was making. So all this grass and roots and stuff would make a powerful portion huh? interesting.
She looked at him and gave a light shrug when he mentioned her like for power being a dangerous thing to persue this time. "So? The more effort the better. Come on, don't you ever get a thrill from a challenge?" She before she noticed the glowing mushrooms again. She frowned at them and gave one a light poike. "What are those things?" She asked observing the aura of turquoise blue light it let off.
((NOT FUNNY!!!))

He smirked," Glowing mushrooms, they grow in caves- usually on walls...I do when I see a fit challenge...However I am curious to learn what the power is...My father told em about them- he said there are many you just have to find them... I don't exactly understand yet but I'm willing to find out if you would be willing to help." He said as he put the components in the boiling water that was distilling into a fine blue liquid.

Neve listened to him and nodded lightly as he spoke. When he mentioned caves she gave a light shiver. She wouldn't admit why and played it off with a stretch. At words about his father, Neve gave a small look of curiousity.
"Then we've got a deal. My bow and your magic, we'll be pretty powerful adventurers , huh?" She chuckled before looking closely at the blue liquid. "You really speak of your father in high regards...are you close?" She asked though was unsure if that was too personal for she, a stranger to know.

When she asked about his father he stiffened," No- He is technically dead... Stubborn old man...We were- I am his only son...My mother well- that's even harder to explain..." He was rambling in his words so he shut his lips not wanting to talk too much about himself because of where they were. He didn't feel safe here, and these people were giving him a bad vibe any how- they were scum.

"Ah okay. Sorry." Neve said awkwardly, since she hadn't ancipated opening up his past to find out he didn't want to talk about his parents. She thought tons of people had pride in their family or at least had reason to be..."But it's better to have something rather than nothing, right?" She mumbled under her breath, mostly to herself. She moved from her perch at his side since the body of the frostbite spider with no legs was giving her the creeps. So she settled for sitting and looking over the map, noticing some of the locations marked off. "Look at this, these marked places span from Markarth to Winterhold...something called Alftand and Mzinchaleft hmmm the mark is inbetween them for some reason...." She sounded the name out though it was obvious reading Dwemmer was not her strong suit. She then let her eyes go to Winterhold. "Hey look the college is marked too!" She said showing him the red X ontop of the college.

Dropping what he was working on he went over to the map and looked, there was indeed a big red X on his beloved college. " if we can go there I can get you some glass arrows.... They are quite nice- my father got me some." He looked a little worried that there was an X but it made him happy to see his college again. He was anxious to get more rare supplies that this jack off didn't have- he said rare items- so now he coudnt make some potions. And those were the ones he needed more then the basic ones.

Neve blinked when he said glass arrows. "They make arrows out of glass? Hopefully they'll be better than these moonstone ones I'm getting (elven arrows)." She looked genuinely surprised, mostly because besides her obsidean bow, her highest level of arrows was her iron arrows. It was all she could afford with the Khajiits. She glanced over and saw that he seemed to only make a small bit of potions despite the immense number of the vails on his belt. "Do you not have what you need?" She asked, curious as to how exactly this alchemy thing worked. Aisha, the medicine woman of the Khajiit tribe used to be proficcient in alchemy but Neve found it too boring to ever watch her work. However now it seemed a bit fascinating to watch these objects become something useful.

They hardly had a variety- I need many more things then this common collection- another reason I wan to go back to the college however I can perhaps get the potions else where maybe... " he said smong at her arrow comment," I would be happy to give you those arrows... Any how may e we could stop by your home also?" He asked her while they were looking at the map. He was hoping to get some more information from her- he was slightly curious as who who he was goin to be traveling with.

Neve listened to what he had to say though she looked thuroughly shocked that all the crap that was in here wasn't the right stuff for his potions. she let it go however since he mentioned her home...
She tensed and looked away from the map. "It was with a Khajiit caravan...They move alot." She said mostly saying it was impossible to ever find them. "Besides I doubt it would be a warm welcome...They're kinda the reason I'm here." She said, her frown returning when she thought of Ramma's betrayal.
"Anyways make a list of what you need. Skyrim is jam packed with vendors. Perhaps someone might have something your looking for." She said hopefully changing the subject and getting on to a more important topic.

Atrious noted her discomfort with the topic. He nodded, and went over to the desk and began ascribing ingredients on a page- most of them were hard to find. It took him a few moments and then roll it up and handed it to her," In case you see the vendors before I do. I have a mental list you don't. Well... now what fearless leader?" He said more a a joke to get her to smile again- he didn't like the look of her frowning already it ruined her beautiful appearance. He had to admit she was a stunning elf. She had crystal blue eyes, pale skin, a sleek shape, and pretty to boot- she was one hell of a catch- even if he didn't have her like that... he at least was in her company- it was nice.

Neve accepted the list looking it over to find she didn't know what half thinese things were or what what they looked like.
She folded the list and held it as she offered him a smirk at his comment. She rather liked the title "fearless leader"
"Now--though it pains me to say it--we wait." She said before getting to her feet. She yawned and stretched, the left shoulder of her robe slipping, exposing just her shoulder, since she had the rob tied so tightly that it wouldn't show much else. When she was done, her eyes were drooped a little and she looked like a cat ready for its nap. "I need sleep and hell they have beds here. Just lock the door and call for me if you get scared." She said over her shoulder, just messing with him, since her good mood had returned.

His eyes went to the exposed skin- as was a bad habit of his. He grinned at her comment though about getting scared," If I get scared can I sleep in your room with you?" He said more a a joke but he couldn't help trying at least with the pretty elf. He followed down a hall to his own quarters. He was awake for a while after getting into his chambers- he felt weird being there- he didn't feel too comfortable there- the bed was soft to be sure but it didn't feel right being there. He got a short nap in the chair at the desk- face down in a book he had been reading aft her had taken it from Acano's library shelf.

Neve shot him a funny look, before smiling rather coyly though sticky sweet sarcasm was heavily dripping from her tone. "Sure, you can sleep on the comfy floor." She told him before skipping off to her own room for sleep.
Neve woke to a knock at the door and instantly her hand went for her bow as the lock jiggled and finally opened. She almost forgot where she was, till the Khajiit walked in, key in had and Neve's clothes in the other.
"I have your armor ready miss." She placed the garments on the foot of her bed before eyeing the bow still clutched in Neve's hands. "They have your arrows made...you will get them on the way out." She informed her before taking her leave. Neve sighed, dropping her bow and rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
"Another day, another adventure..." She huffed before crawling out of bed and throwing on her clothing and armor. It wasn't long till she was fully clothed and headed off to find food, following her nose to a dining hall that seemed to be for entertaining guest. Food was laid out on the table, and being the glutton she tended to be when she was severly hungry, she had no problem taking some of it, starting with a sweet roll.

Waking up he had a stiff neck and a bad mood. He didn't sleep well, and he had a head ache from hell. Sitting up he closed the book on old ruins and stretched. He was in for one hell of a day today. He hoped he could sleep out side better then in here. Looking around the room he saw his clothes on the bed- his Vial where he left them- not a finger print on them. That made him happy to know the servants were honest at least. He got dressed and strapped his vials on- pulling his cape he had gotten back from Neve over his shoulder- completely concealing them so he looked unarmed in a way. Heading down the stairs again he greeted the staff polity and found Neve stuffing her face with about every thing the table had to offer. That made him smile picking up an apple and taking a bit before having a seat. " Good morning. Nice to see you waited to eat for me."

Neve looked over at him around taking a bite of a tart plum. She gave him a raise of her brow at his comment. She was hungry, why would she wait for his tired ass to wake up so she could eat? It made no sense. "Was I suposed to?" She said with a smirk before taking another bite of the plum.
She had indeed eaten quite a bit, but then again she was like a bottomless pit. She ate big but if never went anywhere.
"Anyways, I guess it's a good morning. How did you sleep?" She slept alright, a bit more than she was used to. Neve had a horrible time with nightmares growing up, hence why she became such a clingy sleeper. She smothered one man she had been with, making it predominantly clear she needed to actually sleep alone and couldn't be the cuddly type while she slept.
Tonight however she didn't seem to have one, perhaps bbecause she was too exhausted to.
