    That smelly halfling just so happens to be a master assassin, thief, and master of disguise.

    A young woman walks into the den. She carries herself somewhat shyly, pushing her stylish blond hair out of her golden eyes as she comes in. Despite the turtleneck and baggy jeans she wears, it's obvious she doesn't have much of anything in the way of curves.

    She moves over towards the bar, seeming relieved once she looks over the crowd, "I'll have a beer, thanks,"

    It'll be there in a while. For now, anybody could come up to speak to her.

    "I'm sure you can get a room that has a shower." Ana manages, her nose wrinkled. "I like people with a bit of class. You don't make quite the right impression like that." That, and he asked her what the plan was when she had just said she'd prefer not to give full details just yet, and has such a limited vocabulary that he can't think of a synonym or two for master.

    So far, she is less than impressed by the smelly ugly all too forward and boastful halfling. As such, she focuses on Connie.

    "What I can say is that it'll probably be a pretty straightforward affair. Run in, fight, kick some people out, maybe defend a little bit. Shouldn't take too long, but is likely to involve a lot of action." She says to the woman.

    "Well, that sounds simple until you try it. Ah, well. It sounds like you need somewhere to be... you know... not in public." There is a hint, hint in her voice that implies that she might know such a place.

    She doesn't even wait for an answer, shrugging. "I mean, it's not classy and it's a bit cold, but it's better than, well, a bar."

    An average looking man in plain clothes appears seated at a table. He orders a beer and looks around while he waits for it.

    "Well, it's simple in concept. Less fiddly than jumping through hidden lasers, replacing valuable objects with weights, and detonating precise amounts of explosives." Ana says cheerfully. "And I could use such a place, but first, I need more people!"

    With that she pushes herself and her stool away, her yellow dress fluttering like a banner as she slides across the bar and over to the shy young woman in a turtleneck. "Hey, I don't suppose you can cast spells, can you? Or have some other adventurous and/or nefarious talent?"

    Marciano walks back outside the bathroom. Somehow Marciano looks completely different. He's as tall as a human wearing a fancy trench coat and sunglasses. Marciano's hair is now red and perfectly well kept. Marciano is clean now, even handsome. He walks to the woman he said he would prove his talent to and bows deeply. Not even a hint of my former self. Plus, I'm using no magic. It's all me. (Even his speech color changed!)
    The now attractive taller Marciano tries to kiss her hand once more. I am talented.

    "You've never heard the phrase scurvy dogs?" Reinholdt asks Ermine as they step inside. Reinholdt is in flaming hawt human sniper form and walks as if he oozes confidence.

    Which needless to say, would be a very strange random encounter. A confidence ooze.

    "Perfect! You see, I am planning a heist, and I need assistance from lovely people like you to pull it off." Ana says, finishing off one of her breadsticks as she smiles at the young woman. "I admit, it will be dangerous, and the plan may fail, but if we work together and pull it off, we could be rich!"

    "And who are yo- oh." Ana asks the suddenly changed Marciano, realizing who he is as he tries to kiss her hand. Again. "Look I'm flattered but please don't flirt with me, you're not my type."

    The young woman thinks about this for a moment. She was being invited to rob a place? well, she'd never really existed on the right side of the law, at least for the most part. polite society didn't really like her kind, after all. Maybe she could put that to use.

    A cruel Zelda? He had a hard time believing that a benevolent ruler such as she could ever be so terrible. But here he is, in a place full of seemingly bizarre occurrences and characters.

    "This alternate world is probably some sort of trap set by Gandondorf to isolate Zelda from me..."

    If this is the case then chances are she had already been captured or worse back home. He had failed his only duty: to protect the Queen. What was he to do now that he can't return?

    "If what you say is true then chances are I don't have much hope in ever finding her again." He sighs.

    "What do I do now...?"

    Merideth shrugs, and attempts to gently lay her hand on the man's shoulder, keeping a firm control over her shape and substance so that she doesn't accidentally fuse his clothes to her hand.

    It has happened before, and incidentally makes for a fine party trick.

    "Cool! Well, I think I'm going to blast out of here shortly, now that I've got some interested people, and we'll discuss in a more private area. Sound good?" The villainess props her elbows on the bar, smiling at the unnamed woman. "Actually, if you join up that would mean I'd have an all girl team so far... that'd be fun! It can be a girl's night out, except with crime."

    "Which, uh, would mean you wouldn't really fit the theme, sir." Ana remarks to Marciano. "So if the miss here agrees, I think I'll decline for now. Maybe another time."

    He watches her- he was pretty sure it was a her- walk off, and contemplates what he just heard. A life without responsibility? He wasn't even sure he could imagine that. After all what is a life devoid of duty? Meaningless? Regardless, he felt parched.

    "Then off we go! Merideth! Connie! Lets get rolling!" Ana waves to the others and then zips to the door of the tavern, taking her basket of breadsticks with her. "The night is young and the plots are high!" She declares, pointing up at the stars with a finger.

    Marciano glares, I hope you realize what you've just done woman. Either way, I won't hurt you yet. Probably an empty threat due to Marciano's probably never seeing the woman again.

    Marciano walks over to a table and stands on it. Oy! Ladies, gentleman, other. I am here today to embark on a noble quest to find and hunt a man wanted by Remnant. The prize is 5,000 gold. We will be hunting an escaped convict, a criminal! Who's up arrest a wicked man or make a tidy profit! Anyone? Marciano shouts loudly, everyone will hear.

    Merideth follows Ana as well, although at a much more sedate pace, so she can keep her physical form.

    She half turns to the man she'd been talking to, and gives him a short wave and a serene smile, and waits for Connie to catch up.

    "I am quite ready to go, Ana."
