Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Welcome to the Dancing Fox Inn! Come and try our one of a kind beverages and food, chat with friends, or grab a private room and relax. All are welcome to the Dancing Fox Inn.
We would like to ask, please, no smoking in the establishment unless you are on fire. We understand that there are often exceptions. Thank you for understanding. Be sure to enjoy your stay.
If your characters are upstairs, please say so to avoid confusing the other occupants
Description:
Spoiler
Show
The inn is . . . indescribable. Size wise, anyway. It has as many tables as needed, and as many chairs as needed. So that needn't be said as well.
The floors are rough hewn logs. In fact the whole inn is made of wood, with a solid foundation of stones. There is a downstairs common room of tables and private booths, and an upstairs with bedrooms. There is a bar, behind the bar is a kitchen. The tables and seats are made of wood. The private booths are also made of wood but the seats are cushioned by dirty often-cleaned and torn patched pillows. There is also a basement that acts as storage for the drinks and food (and a secret meeting place). Access to the basement is through the kitchen.
Renn usually keeps a heavy crossbow already cocked and loaded under the bar. He also has a sleeping power next to it that he sometimes uses on the crossbow bolts or sprinkles into a rowdy drunks drink.
Mist Anders is usually at the bar, with all the convenient tools like that in his pockets. The fox-boy is currently both the bartender and the waiter, but don't worry, his hands won't shed into your drinks.
Also nearly always there is the current manager Naku, her long hair and pale complexion complemented by her pretty smile which just so happens to reveal a set of fangs.
The inn as a whole can be described as a little dirty and run down, but at the same time it's homey. Its repair might be a difficult fix, but its cleanliness is usually not a problem unless someone's kept the employees from fixing that up. Mist has too much time on his hands.
Current Staff:
Naku - Barkeep and Manager
Mist Anders- Barboy
/*Not Empty*/ - Barmaid
Empty - Waiter
Strahd - Cook
Empty - Bard
HIRING: Could use a Bard. Or maybe not, if you asked for the post already just remind us!
THE MENU:
Spoiler
Show
Under Complete Overhaul. Until it's done, just ask Naku and/or Mist for something.
Wines*:
Fender Bender Mender: A nice wine mixed with a healing potion. Comes in non-alcoholic. No one can quite decide on what it tastes like, as it likes healing taste-buds and making itself taste divine.
Bar Drinks*: RC Nuka Cola. A fairly decent knock-off without the unfortunate ingredient of radiation
Beers, Ales & Such*: If it's found in the Nexus, there's probably a pint of it somewhere
Food: Roast Pheasant, barbecued ribs, fresh fruit, and honestly anything you could probably think of. Or that you couldn't, Strahd does that sometimes.
Dessert:
*Can substitute the alcohol for a magical liquid that can make anybody drunk, no matter what the resistance, for a little extra.
Some Excellent Poems
Dancing Fox Inn and DFI '09
The Ballad of the Inn
We Dream of a Town
Side note: The DFI is not in any way, shape, or form, inside Inside. It's just a quiet little place off somewhere, that would like to stay free from apoco-plawts, various inter-warring factions, and all that jazz.
Everyone is equally welcome here, just please leave it at the door.
And, as such,
On Violence:
Spoiler
Show
The DFI is a peaceful place. There has been some IC, as well as OoC, talk about it, and the end result is 'please, for the sake of everyone else, don't do it'. If you want to fight, go elsewhere.
If you insist on fighting here, you will probably find your weapons turning into nerf versions of what they used to be, until you leave. After you leave they'll be returned to what they should be.
If you try to teleport someone out so you can kill them, it will fizzle and not work. Teleporting out in order to go do plot or RP stuff is fine. Just not to work around the rules and kill someone.
Lastly, if you choose to ignore these and keep trying to fight, you will either be ignored, or the entire inn and everyone else in it will be teleported off somewhere else, leaving you where it had been completely alone.
Or, you might find that there's a Nerf gun in your holster instead of your Glock. And a cheese stick in your knife sheathe. And generally other odd coincidences which would make that loadout rather useless.
Though please just don't.
Enjoy your stay.
And no, Mist can't dance, no matter what the name might have led you to believe.

"Oh, c'mon, how is that objectifying?" Tina asks, laughter mingling with her words. The girl may or may not fully understand what that term means. She crosses her arms and looks at him, those dark eyes gleaming. "I guess you'll just go dateless forever."

Amelia's Room
Sighing in relief, Yuki turns his attention once again to the wires within Amelia's system. He begins drawing out the remnant magic once again, this time making sure that no wires enter his orb. Once he's satisfied that there is insufficient magic for the wires to draw on, he starts cutting again.

"It counts close enough when you're thinking of people just for things like that instead of as just people. But yes, clearly I'll be stuck single forever, working in a job which requires me to talk to various pretty girls who come in without any obligations. Truly a most terrible fate." he says with a smirk of his snout and ears.

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Claire re-enters the inn and sits with the rest of her group. Strangely, Elendro and Nekokaburi haven't arrived yet.
"Sorry I took so long. You lot enjoy your food?" Claire asks nonchalantly.
"I could fight a Chikyuu-jin man with blonde hair," Kyran says heartily. "But first, I'll have to pay for the food. Do you think this place takes debit? If not, I have a few bars of karenshi-lyte I could break into strips, assuming conversion exists here."
"Given the nature of the Nexus, I would assume there is a fair conversion rate that would round out to a mere few strips," Anastrinna says.

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Mist and Fettina may notice Thalia blushing profusely.
I think she heard them completely

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
And here enters a new person, well at least he is new to the Dancing Fox Inn. The man, 6'2" tall, wears a long white labcoat and some Jeans under it. His black hair is cut short adn his left eye seems to miss eye color.
He will sit down at the bar, hopefully seeing the barkeeper or barboy.
"A beer, please." Andy orders. He tries to avoid appearing a bit sad, but coming alone into a bar for a drink can't be a happy moment, right?
-
Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
"Well, y'know, dying is sorta the plan B and I'd rather not, but.." He makes a face and lets that like die off there. Real pleasant conversation they're having here, and despite his best attempts in staring at the empty glass, his Irish milkshake doesn't appear to be refilling itself.
"Yeah, diinosaurs are neat. Uh, you're gonna want a hazmat suit, the whole place is kinda bad for humans, so, suit up or magic up or something."

"Of course." Naku says, grabbing him a beer, and handing it across the bar to the man. "You all right?"

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Andy takes the beer and drops a few coins, enougth for the beer and a tip. He takes a sip befor he speaks up.
"I'm alright. It's just this doctor stuff that bothers me. You tell a patient to rest at least for a bit, but they immediatly think they are ok and up for another deadly task. Damn I don't got those magical powers."
Then he takes another deep sip of the beer and looks down into the rest of it, maybe watching his own reflection on the beer.

"Sheesh, what sorta things are you thinking of?" Tina asks, her thin, crystalline voice turned teasing. "I'll admit, I do see plenty of talking in your future."

"That I understand. It happened back home quite a bit. Heck, I've done it more than once. 'No doc, I'm fine, I swear. I'm just going to pop all these stitches and bleed out everywhere being dumb'.
Did anyone die?" Naku asks, somewhat sadly.

Well he is in for a long and most likely very tiring process. The wires try and regrow, and he has to cut more. A couple of times he will probably have to go back to an area he thought was clear of the malicious magic to cut away a resurgance of the wires. Depending on his stamina he might not be able to get it all done in one sitting, and if he does he should be pretty tired. Not Amelia though, after awhile she will safely drift off into sleep and will probably be well rested once the operation is done.

Andy looks up a bit shocked.
"You should really contact someone to look over it." he replies, assuming she still got the scares.
"I hope not." he answers her question afterwards. "He just disapeared. And I got no idea where he went."

Naku shakes her head slightly. "That was a long time ago. I'm all right. Thank you though."
She nods at his other response, though. "Was the patient a friend of yours?"

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Andy let's out a sight as he hears that things are long ago. At least that means it didn't kill her so he doesn't need to worry.
"No. He was barly alive when he came in and after I treated him we didn't talked much. I just told him to wait a day befor leaving bed, but he didn't listen. It doesn't need tp be a friend to feel bad about it."
-
Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Elendro and Nekokaburi re-enter the bar. However, Elendro walks past his group's table and goes directly to the bar, looking exhausted and a little more pale than usual. He presses his hands against his face and looks close to dozing off.

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
A handsome stranger slips inside the Dancing Fox, setting the lady-folk abuzz. Well, at least that's how he'd go about narrating it. This stranger's certainly not ugly. He's a big, Caucasian fellow, about as human as they come (at least on his planet). He's possessed of strong, broad features, and has a big mouth well suited to a good laugh or a crude boast. His skin is fair, if slightly pale, and his hair is dark. A few days worth of stubble lingers around his chin and jaw, lending a bit of roughness to his otherwise clean face.
He's dressed casual. His hair's a bit long, and he's got it combed tightly back against his head.
John (as that's what he's come to call himself) lowers himself onto a stool beside one miss Thalia, his eyes turning immediately upon her. "Hi there," he says, in about the most relaxed tone of voice you'll ever hear. If you're gonna sit next to someone you oughta at least be polite.

At this, a man next to him at the bar shifts toward Andy, unable to resist chiming in. He's about 6'1'', wearing slightly outdated clothes and an increasing look of concern.
"Sorry to interrupt," Suscipio begins. "but did you say he simply vanished? Your patient I mean. Do you remember any physical description or maybe what was wrong with his condition when he came to see you?"
He then turns to the barkeep and nods politely.
"Might I have another beer for this man here, and a Djinn and Tonic for me if you've any in stock?"
I feel a story behind this.

thalia simply replies, smiling slightly as she sips her drink.

"It definitely doesn't need to be a friend to feel bad about it, I agree. But it's always worse when it is a friend." Naku says, sighing and shaking her head slightly.

"Aaabsolutely." Naku says, kneeling and drawing out the various alcohols. She slides the beer across to Andy, and quickly mixes up the Djinn and Tonic. "Anything else?" She asks, sliding the drink across to the man.

"Well, he missed the bones of one leg and the other leg was broken badly. I fixed both so he should be able to walk again very soon. And no, I won't give you a description. I don't know you and so I don't know what your concerns are."
((The char he is talking about isn't one of mine. I go ask the player if he wantes to ger searched.))

Andy tries to stop her befor she makes the beer.
"No thanks. Mine is still half full. Maybe later if I'm done, if I don't have to work." he sais with a look at the pale guy.
"And yes, it's allways bad to loose a friend or girlfriend that way." he says with a deep sight.

Elendro takes a deep breath and tries to recollect his thoughts. "Unngh. Flagon of dwarven mead. Extra iron supplement, if you can." He drops two solid slips of gold-plated karenshi-lyte.

"Well, all right. I'll keep it over here and cold for you. But it's yours if you want it." Naku says, taking it back, and putting the beer back under the bar.

As Naku slides the requested drink across the bar to Elendro, she offers, somewhat hesitantly, "I could . . . maybe . . . help?"

"How do you figure?" Elendro asks slurredly. And that's before he starts drinking. When he starts drinking, he recoils lightly, putting the tankard down and swallowing down just a few sips.

Taken slightly aback, Suscipio reels from the comment.
"Terribly sorry. Pardon my concern." he says eyes suddenly wide in confusion. He looks back to Naku. "Thank you, that'd be it for me."
He turns back to his drink and hands over the money for both.

The condensation drips down the glass, and Suscipio glosses over a few memories in his head. He turns a bit and considers the words, taking a small drink.
"Good question. This is the best place for some rest, or so I'm told. I suppose I wander. Normally I enjoy hearing about others' journeys. I assume you've witnessed many come and go through your tavern. A good amount of stories to accompany that coin-purse, I take it?" Suscipio shoots a grin her way. "Possibly any you'd like to share over that beer? I understand if your work demands your sobriety, however."

"I don't think I could argue. What with the non-violence policy we have, we're the safest inn in the Nexus, to my knowledge.
I've seen more than my share come through," Naku says, nodding in agreement. "I could share some of my own, I don't think I could share of others', though." With that, Naku looks around, and shrugs slightly. "I could go for a drink, I think. Not too much going on, and it'll take more than one drink to get me drunk."

"Sounds great!" Naku says, vaulting the bar. "It shouldn't hurt. Unless your natural blood regeneration process hurts? Because I'm just going to speed that up.
Ready?"

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Elena is quietly and curiously watching, wondering what exactly Naku is doing...And worried she might lose control. So she's ready to try to stop things, should something bad happen.
((Not that I think that they will, OOC, but Elena doesn't know that, does she?))

"One second." Elendro chugs down a large gulp of his drink, shuddering as the bitter taste leads down his throat. He nods his head and takes a deep breath.

The grin slowly turns to beaming, with each word. "Naturally."
Suscipio notes the red eyes of the woman in front of him. He barely tilts his head in silent curiosity. Not that he didn't notice before, but her mention of tolerance sparked a connection in Suscipio's mind. Wheels turn in his head.
Maybe if I could get her to laugh. Or just smile.
"I don't suppose I ought to credit that to your work behind the bar, should I?" he says, with a hint of suggestion behind every syllable that tip-toes from his mouth.

"Kay? Kay. Here we go." And then she taps his shoulder. With that, his natural regen should get kicked into overdrive until it's done resupplying all the blood he had lost! Which should be pretty quick. He's probably going to get quite hungry, though.

Elendro's stomach growls very loudly, but his face regains a slight tan, and his energy is back up. He then lays out a bar of karenshi-lyte and says, "Meeeeeaaaat." He also takes out strips of cash moderately larger than the slips he paid for the beer and said, "Here's the tab for my group. Tell the barboy and the chef they were great at service."

I sincerely hope I used that correctly. On another note, she didn't seem to give any indication that might confirm my suspicions, however. Perhaps, I ought to just be a bit more forward.
"Then again, I've found it's best to hold no presumptions of other people. At the same time, I can't help but notice your ruby eyes and purple hair. If I didn't know any better, I might've pegged you an elf, miss. Though, research over a few long years makes me suspect otherwise. Not to mention, I know few elves who hold well their drink." he finishes his statement with another sip and an ever-growing curious look from behind a tipped glass.

Another four slips of karenshi-lyte.
Naku takes the cash with a grateful nod. "I will pass those along. Thank you very much."

At this, though, Naku laughs, smiling widely to show that yes, her teeth are quite pointy.
"No, I'm no elf." Naku had noticed the man's eyes wandering, and had a fairly amused, curious expression on her face. "Would have been interesting if I were, but no. I'm just a normal, boring human." She says this with a still fairly amused half-grin on her face, though.

A chuckle and a smile to match finds itself on Suscipio.
"Well, a toast to us boring humans, then." he lifts his glass, all the while accompanied by a familiar feeling. "What then, would be your stories? I'll stay awake, I promise." Suscipio leans forward and rests his head atop two open hands, his arms pillars to hold it up, as if to ensure his point. His smirk unfading.

"Ya, no problem." Elendro's appetite starts to sit deeply, and he takes the entire flagon of dwarven mead in his tankard, ignoring the taste entirely, just looking to get something to get rid of this rumbly feeling his stomach is getting.

And Naku raises her mug that she got from somewhere along with him!
"Hmmm. Well. What do you want to hear? Before or after I came to own this place?"
Naku lets Elendro nom his stuffs. Though she does hold the container of alcohol up, her offer left unspoken.

He turns back to his drink and hands over the money for both.
"Don't worry," andy replies. " That's just for the safty of my patient. As said, your a foreigner to me. I can't know if you maybe the one causing the wounds."

As Naku slides the requested drink across the bar to Elendro, she offers, somewhat hesitantly, "I could . . . maybe . . . help?"
"Thanks." Andy just replies befor Naku heads of for story trading.

"Mighty kind of you, sir. But unless you have a blood pack on hand, I'll have to deal with a little wooziness for a week." He bows his head slightly and cracks a tiny smile.
"No, but I got medicin that speeds the blood production up. It's not as fast as her way as I see it, but it would suffer the same side effect."

Elendro holds his finger up to wait whilst he finishes this last chew of meat. He takes ten seconds, then swallows the mass.
"I could use one of those for teammates of mine. If they don't need adjustment for body weight, I could take maybe one pack." He resumes eating, but is still listening to what this doctor has to say.

"Time is a fickle thing. I'm sure from whenever you wish to begin your story, I'll find it all the more intriguing." he said, eyes dodging to the side for a short second. "We could take the story back to any point at your whim. I'd hardly mind. Besides, surely you have a favorite memory."
At this, his pocket-watch inaudibly hums, but he mentally dismisses it. Bringing his gaze back to the woman, he notices a few faint marks. Small. Barely noticeable. His smile drops only just.
"We all have our share of memories."

"Hmmm." Naku hmmms quietly, drumming the fingers of one hand on the bar, thinking of a good story.
"We all do have our share, don't we?" Then she continues to think, trying to remember a story that didn't end in misery.
She didn't have very many of those.
"So, not terribly long ago, I went out on a date with a friend. It was really fun, actually. We went to a lake, it was dark, the water was really pretty. The way the moonlight was reflecting off of the small ripples, and the trees were green . . ." Naku says happily, remembering the memories, a happy half smile on her face. "And then I dropped him in the lake." She admits, her grin turning greatly amused. "It was hilarious."

Talia nods, looking at him with slight wariness.
Last time someone bought her a drink, after all, she got enslaved. Again.
Calm down Thalia, this isn't Skyside, quit being paranoid.
"Thank you."

Depending on his stamina he might not be able to get it all done in one sitting, and if he does he should be pretty tired. Not Amelia though, after awhile she will safely drift off into sleep and will probably be well rested once the operation is done.
Amelia's Room
Continuing to cut and recut, Yuki eventually clears away all of the wires, shaking slightly from exhaustion. He puts away his orb and scalpel, then makes sure that Amelia's systems are reconnected properly. While using magic shouldn't hurt any more than it would anyone else, the long period of no use has left them rather weak. Once he's satisfied, Yuki promptly collapses onto the side of the bed, falling asleep.

Mist leans forward, leaning his snout on a hand.
"Or perhaps I just wanted to wait until you admitted that despite your previous statements indicating the contrary.
But regardless of all that, would you like to catch a movie sometime, then?" he says, falling back to the standard issue destination.

His eyebrows rise, and Suscipio fires a playfully accusing look at Naku.
"Dropped him in?" he says incredulously. "At least the date was exciting. Is it customary that you drench all your dates? Or just the fun ones?"

"Dropped him in, yup!" Naku says, grinning widely and nodding, in a very young, cheerful way.
"I dunno if it is or not yet customary, though. Haven't gone on any dates besides that one."

Suscipio laughs lightheartedly.
"So I see. My only advice might be not to drench the other should someone strike such luck as to be your second date then." he adds wryly. "Though I hardly doubt it wasn't a worthwhile experience for your friend. Who was he, if I'm allowed to ask?"

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
A young lady walks into the bar. Her brown hair falls past her shoulders. Her skin seems a little pale. Her hazel eyes dart around as she takes in the inn. It's been a while since she's been here, but it looks pretty much the same as she remembers it. She smiles at that, revealing a pair of fangs. Then she makes her way towards the bar. Two things make noise as she walks. One is a canvas shoulder bag bumping against her hip. The sounds coming from it make one think of glass bottles clinking together. The other object is held in her hand. It is about three feet in length, and vaguely resembles an old fashioned skeleton key. If such a key was made from engine parts. The part making the noise would be a keychain dangling from the end in her hand.
Alysha hops up onto a stool, setting the Keyblade on the counter and the bag on the floor.

Alysha may find another person sitting next to her:
Sophia Godlark, the tanned, extremely fit, brownhaired woman shown on my avatar, propping her head with her right arm as she reads a manga, waiting for a bartender to notice her

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Alysha notices her instead!
And gives a huge grin and matching wave. Filled with enthusiasm, of course. Her grin also reveals her fangs again, but Alysha doesn't seem to really be trying to hide them, anyways.
Hi! My name's Alysha! Nice to meet you!
She'll then hold out her hand to shake.

Sophia looks up from her manga, smiles slightly, and shakes Alysha's hand with a firm grip that may give Alysha the idea this woman is quite strong.
Sophia Godlark. Glad to meet you, miss. Are you a vampire?
Sophia inquires with an amicable tone

"But dunking people is fun!" Naku objects, pouting slightly, and using much a tone as a teen girl would complaining to her dad.
"It was Aiden. He's . . . not really around these parts any more."

"Hey, what can I get for you two?" Naku asks, looking over at the newcomers.

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Alysha does indeed notice the grip. Her own grip is of average strength.
She nods to Sophia. Yep. But I don't actually bite people, cause that's just mean.
Then Naku speaks! Alysha looks to the bartender. Um, do you guys still serve Ichor Liquor here?Been a while since I've been here, so I'm not sure if you do. If you do, I'll have that, please.

Re: Dancing Fox Inn X: Four Left Paws
Cool! All we had back home were humans and Titan Shifters.
Then Naku!
A beer please, miss.
