Burning Skies Saloon
Plasmarobo:
Plasma looks nonplussed. Taking a pull from his own Hellfire.
Plasma
"A sword? Granted it's a pretty one. Is it some kind of ancestral treasure or something?"
He eyes the object curiously.
Gryphos:
--Saloon--
Nidhogg
"Ancestral treasure? No, It was made for me, for duelling, to settle disputes etcetera. Most of the time people duel with pistols but one can't deny the pleasurable act of twirling a fine blade through the air, or flesh, if need be. But I try to avoid such acts... Try."
He continues to take swigs from the Hellfire.
Nidhogg
"But enough about me. This doesn't just go one way. What are your stories?"
BdrLineAzn:
--Saloon--
BdrLine takes a seat closer to Althea, nervousness showing. While playing with his thumb, he tries to talk to her.
BdrLine
"So umm Althea, Bodyguard... Yiski. umm Ahh... I'll be over there then."
He stands up from his seat and moves to the other side of the bar with a hand behind his head and his face red. Ny-Lee sees this and finally piece why her brother was actin strange for the pat few days. She brings a. hand to stifle a chuckle and goes over to him.
Ny-Lee
"So, brother. Lady troubles I see."
Startled, he turns to her.
BdrLine
"What... Noo. Me and lady troubles, Ny how can you say that. I mean I'm 'BdrLine' for Gods shakes."
Ny-Lee puts on a smug face and rolls her eyes.
Ny-Lee
"Denial."
BdrLine goes on a little defensive and raise a finger in the air.
BdrLine
"D-d-denial. Now I wonder who is the sane one now."
Still unamused, Ny-Lee folds her arms and stare at her brother. Starting to sweat a little, BdrLine gets up from his seat and heads to the door. He calls out to Yiski and the others.
BdrLine
"Umm Yiski, I think I'm needed at the docks. Niko said that some of his ships are still broken. I'll be back."
He exits the saloon and heads to the tavern where is Niko is staying. Ny-Lee gives an exasperated gasp and goes over to her husband.
--Docks--
At the tavern, BdrLine enters and sees Niko holding a pencil and paper with his men surrounding him.
Niko
"Ok so that's 50 copper for five days for Chee. 15 silver for a week for my cousin. Ok anyone else?"
BdrLine raises an eyebrow and goes up to him.
BdrLine
"Niko, what's this?"
Niko turns around and sees his friend. Goes up to him, wraps an arm around his shoulder and shows the paper.
Niko
"Hey Bdr, you see the men and I thought it would be fun to bet on how lon it will take for you to get the girl you were talking about. So far a lot of people are saying that it be a month or so."
BdrLine face palm himself as Niko and he others laugh.
Yiski:
--Saloon--
After BdrLine left, Jun'ko and Lauren couldn't help but laugh at his immense awkwardness. Zill chuckled and Yiski sighed. Althea just stood there trying to take in what happened.
Althea
"So, did he just try and..."
Yiski
"I suppose he tried, and failed miserably. Ny, do you know if he's ever had any experience with a woman?"
Ny-Lee
"Back home? One or two, but I think it was more of a friendship than anything else."
Yiski shrugged, then turned to Nidhogg.
Yiski
"Our stories. Skies, we'd be here all week. To start, I was a Baronies Striker when my service was up. Fought in the Baronies-Guild Conflict."
Lauren
"I was a pilot for the Baronies during the same time, but I did go 'missing' for a time after the Conflict."
Yiski
"Yeah 'missing'." *Doing air quotes*
Gryphos:
--Saloon--
Nidhogg
"I'm sorry, 'missing'? What happened"
Whilst he says this he puts his sword back in its sheath and removes his cloak, placing it on the bar.
