Indiana Jones drifts downstairs. He seems relaxed enough as he orders some fajitas and an iced tea. He doesn't bother looking round much as he settles in at a central table, unaware of anyone who may be seeking him. Perhaps he looks a little more distant than usual, but he's just your typical quiet, mysterious adventurer eating some Mexican really.

"Well, don't you look snazzy," Indy beams at her. He takes in the outfit and nods appreciatively. "Very nice."

Echo giggles, and twirls around before posing. She then giggles again, before giving him another hug.

"Thank you! Iris took me shopping today."

"How lovely. Heh. It suits you. Where'd you go?" he asks, still grinning.

"Around Tokyo. Iris had to get rid of her wings in order to take me, so we couldn't go anywhere else. But it was fun anyway!"

"Well, I'm glad you had fun. I'm not sure I've met Iris. Um... rainbow goddess, messenger girl I'm guessing."

He frowns a little.

"Did she permanently get rid her wings?"

Echo shakes her head.

"No, as soon as we got back to the house, she carefully got them back. She's now resting. She'll probably sleep for a couple of days. Not having wings was hard for her."

"I can imagine."

"That reminds me. Do you know Mike? The turtle? He said there's a fairy around here now that can make anyone fly for a while. Have you seen her?"

Echo smiles brightly.

"I know Mike! He threw me in the lake once. But I don't know anything about any fairies. Sorry."

She then tilts her head.

"I would like to meet her though."

[occ: you're so silly =D]

"Me too," he admits with a thoughtful expression. "So, um, if you don't mind me asking, where did you and Iris get the money to kit you out in such finery?"

He is smiling again.

"Iris had it stored up. She's been saving for a long time. And she wanted to treat me."

She smiles, and twirls again, cause she can.

Indy laughs. "You're something Echo... really something. Did she get you any other outfits?"

Echo nods, smiling brightly.

"I got this green dress, and then this other very very pretty dress, a shirt with some writing on it, and a hat!"

She looks up at his.

"Sadly, it's not like yours. But it is like Brian's!"

He looks a little sad that the hat is not like his. "I guess you won't be needing my socks anymore?" he says glumly.

She suddenly feels bad.

"No! I still need them."

She gives him a big hug.

"I promise you, I still need them. My feet still get cold. And they're still fun to slid around in."

She smiles at him reasuringly.

He grins again. "I'm only playing dear."

"Um... did you ever get the speaking thing fixed so Eris doesn't have to be around?"

She smiles brightly, then waves at the bar.

"Do you see Eris anywhere?"

He looks around curiously. "No..."

Then he adopts a huge smile and pulls her to him again. "I'm so happy for you. How did you lift the curse?"

She giggles and hugs him.

"Hestia, another goddess, and Hera's sister? She cured me completely."

"Won-derful," Indy exclaims. "Everything seems to be going so well for you. I'm so glad."

There's a slight pause.

"It's a nice change to see someone so happy."

She smiles at him, then gives him another hug.

"Are you better this evening? You seem it."

"A little. Except... I hurt someone again. I didn't mean to, but that doesn't really matter."

She sighs, hugging.

"Who did you hurt?"

"Svava," he says quietly. "I told someone something about her that she had forgotten, that she would have told them eventually. It wasn't my place."

She continues to hug him.

"I'm sorry."

"Not a good week my friend... not a good week at all. I wish I could do something to repair what I've done." He rests his head on her shoulder.
