"The stew sounds wonderful luv" the fighter smiles at Amy, allowing his eyes to linger just for a moment on her bosum, "and another pint for each of us when you can".
"My family works a vinyard on the second plateau." Conner turns his attention to the rest of the party, "another man owns it and my dad and brothers grow and pick the grapes. I needed more than that and joined the militia. I learned a fair bit, tactics and the like, but 3 years of guarding caravans and city gates was more than enough for me. So now I'm back in Plateau City looking for something to do. I met this lot in the tavern where Calfinus brought Treesa."
Conner turns to watch Amy make her way back to the bar after taking the table,s order.
Kadaz Saturday January 17th, 2004 4:58:17 PM
"Amy, we'd each like 5 sp special, I'm paying. And if you have it, a bone for my dog."
Evan Saturday January 17th, 2004 5:33:37 PM
Evan whistles again to get Uriel's attention. He quickly signs a question, ~Who is Tressa?~
Temp ADM Carla "A Hearty Meal" Saturday January 17th, 2004 7:11:34 PM
Amy makes three trips to the table. Five mugs of Plateau City's best is delivered to the table to whet the appetites of the adventurer's. Next she returns with five deep plates. Steam rises from generous servings of beef, potatoes, turnips, carrots, and mustard greens. A wooden cutting board is placed in the middle of the table, with a large round loaf of warm bread. On her final trip, the maid brings the second round of drinks ordered by the fighter.
"That'll be 25 SP" she says to Kadaz, as she slips him a grease stained parcel wrapped in cheap paper and tied with string. Chucking Conner under the chin, she chirps, "an you owe me 25 coppers, sweets!"
The door to the tavern opens and closes as more patrons enter. Amy and her work-mate are kept busy delivering the special of the day, as Hamm keeps an eye on the room and works the taps.
Mira Saturday January 17th, 2004 7:42:01 PM
"Zzzzzzz"
Kadaz Sunday January 18th, 2004 7:53:28 AM
Kadaz reaches into his pouch and feels around for 3 gold. He pulls these out and hands them over to the girl. "Thank you very much, miss. The food looks wonderful."
Uriel Sunday January 18th, 2004 1:04:09 PM
[slurp] [burp] [mmmhhmmmhhmmm!] {The sounds of eating and drinking} Uriel just continues to listen, besides thanking the bar maid for the food and drink.
Conner Sunday January 18th, 2004 6:56:48 PM
Conner fishes into his pouch and pulls out 4 silver pieces to pay for the ales. Amy's term of endearment did not escape the normally imperceptive fighter. "Here you are luv, keep the rest for yourself" When she reaches for the money, Conner will hold her hand and whisper discreetly "What time do you get off?"
Temp ADM Carla "Last Call" Sunday January 18th, 2004 10:04:34 PM
Amy makes change for Kadaz, and pockets Conner's coins. She acknowledges Uriel's thanks for the meal. As she passes Evan's chair she admonishes,"mind you don't tip back and fall." Coming around to the tatooed fighter, she leans over his shoulder and whispers, "I'm off at one. Meet me out back, by the kitchen door. I just might let you walk me home!" Straightening up, she catches Arm's eye, and winks a blue one at him before flouncing off to look after another table.
The evening passes uneventfully as the place fills up with locals. Around midnight, Hamm announces 'last call'. Patrons start to filter out in groups and singly until only the party of five is left sitting at their table by the hearth, talking comfortably.
Amy and her work-mate finish collecting the last empty mugs, and wipe down the tables as Hamm replaces the empty kegs behind the counter. "Time to go home, " he mutters.
Kadaz Monday January 19th, 2004 6:28:18 AM
Kadaz leaves the 5 sp change on the table as he gets up to leave with the others. "It's been a long, long day and bed sounds good" he says. It would be nice if tomorrow were less eventful, but who knows in Plateau City?
Evan Monday January 19th, 2004 6:34:09 AM
Evan awakens with a start. *Where did the time go?* The warmth of the fire, the good food, the ale and pleasant company has Evan dozing in and out for most of the evening.
*Mira!* Evan suddenly leaps to his feet as he remembers that Mira has had nothing to eat yet. He quickly gathers his stuff and walks up to Hamm. He points at the cheese and bread on his list, asking if he can purchase some. He places several silver pieces on the counter to emphasis his request.
Once Evan has the cheese and bread in hand, he heads back over to the dark cabin. As he stands in the doorway, looking into the dark cabin, he berates himself for falling asleep before camp was completely set up. Evan pulls a candle out of his pack and lights it. He uses the meager light from the candle to light a fire in the hearth. Once the room is well-lit by the hearth fire, Evan begins searching for a plate or something to put the bread and cheese on. He slices both for Mira then snags his waterskin from his pack. He carries both to Mira's door. With his hand on the latch to Mira's door, Evan suddenly pauses, frowning as he realizes he probably should not just walk into Mira's room.
Evan places the plate and waterskin on the floor next to Mira's door, then softly knocks on her door. As he walks away, he wonders why he thought he had the right to just enter her room uninvited.
Conner Monday January 19th, 2004 7:39:32 AM
As the rest of the party heads for the flat, Conner discreetly slips away behind Sampsons and waits by the kitchen door for Amy...He returns to the flat much much later.
Arm-satisfied Monday January 19th, 2004 3:50:10 PM
Arm returns to their lodgings as well, content with the meal but still pensive....a nagging feeling at the base of his skull is telling him that they have not heard the last of Dexter.
OOC: Sorry for not posting over the w/e, guys, but I didn't know we were doing that now....
(Temp ADM Carla: No worries. It was just a one time thingy, for those who like to post!)
Mira d20+2=5 d20+2=20 Monday January 19th, 2004 5:39:32 PM
Mira sleeps through the night, but is plagued by bad dreams. She does not hear the quiet knock at her door in the middle of the night. (Listen=5).
Early to bed, the sorcerer is early to rise. She wraps the silk mage's robe about her, and replaces her spectacles. With hair dishevelled, and spectacles slightly askew, she grabs the scrolls she got the day before, and opens the door from her room. Spotting the plate of food before she steps in it, (Spot=20, whew!) she picks it up along with the waterskin. The sorcerer takes a place at the table near the still glowing remains of the fire and eats her breakfast as she studies the writing on the scrolls.

Evan Monday January 19th, 2004 8:19:50 PM
Evan gets rudely awakened by a hungry Ariel, who is busily putting her cold nose in places guaranteed to wake someone up. Evan scrambles to his feet, blinking in confusion. His dream had been so real that at first he's a little unclear as to where he is and why his horse is in his room. As Evan dresses, the events of yesterday come to mind. Pausing only long enough to pry the window open to let some fresh air in, Evan heads into the main room.
Evan looks around the room, taking in the condition of the room and heads for the hearth. He carefully banks the remaining coals and gives the firewood a good going over to make sure no ants or roaches have decided to move in while the place has been closed. He sees that the young Soreceress is studing, so he moves as quietly as possible while he works. He hunts up a bucket and heads out to find a well for some fresh water.
Kadaz Monday January 19th, 2004 9:03:57 PM
Kadaz wakens in the morning when Birdie sticks his wet cold nose under the covers. Glancing over he sees that Conner is now in his bed. He grins slightly, remembering fellow guards who stood watch all day and then spent most of the night out.
Kadaz dresses quietly, leaving armor and most weapons behind so as to not make noise and disturb Conner. He picks up his small work bag and joins the others in the common room. He opens the door for Birdie to go outside and then sits down at the table. He is working on a leather weapons belt decorated with a repetitive geometric design.
