Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Spako nods as he's shown the stone.
"That sounds very useful, Garrett. And now, really, if you have a hankering for anything, order it. You really look like you could use a real meal, and I have plenty of funds as long as I only need to spend it on rent and food."Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Garrett lifts his headband for a moment and focuses his empathic powers on the woman, looking to read thoughts, emotion, and physical state. He tries to use detect magic as well, but his magick is currently stunted.
"Much thanks, friend. Bamhacon, please. And lemonade."Last edited by TechnoScrabble; 2014-01-18 at 04:58 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
The woman, drumming her fingers lightly against the bartop, ponders quietly to herself. ...may as well let Adder know I'm here, though I suppose I don't really need any help from him right now...
'Many thanks,' she says to Cosmo, as he pushes a glass as far as his little arms can reach towards the front of the counter. 'If you could keep a tab running for me, that would be marvelous.'
Garrett will note that the woman's state of mind is relaxed, for the most part, though there's the buzzing undertone of recent excitement. Physically, she's exerted herself pretty intensely in the last few hours, and is in good health overall. He may pick up on a slight magical presence, though none of it stems from herself directly - she's carrying something in her right hand.

Spako nods and flags a waitress for him.
"See, there you go. Get some meat for you."
he says and orders some for himself. It'll get here momentarily.
"Whatcha lookin' at, Garrett?"Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
The woman glances across at Caelynn for a second, nodding and smiling in subtle acknowledgement. She then turns back to the bar, taking a long sip of wine in the process.
Her small drone, however, takes far more interest, its sensor contracting and making little buzzing sounds while the panels twitch back and forth. It keeps its distance so as not to seem overly obtrusive, though it is clearly inspecting Caelynn, looking in particular for any magical or mechanical devices that she might be carrying.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

"Lady over there. Popped outta a mirror. Doesn't come off dangerous, though," Garrett tears violently into his bamhacon.
"God you're a fatty."

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Having completed its initial inspection, the drone returns to its neutral state, occasionally buzzing and clicking, seemingly to itself.
The woman pauses for a moment, as if contemplating something carefully. The device she is carrying is slipped carefully back into her pocket.
'I like your gloves,' she says finally, smiling more earnestly now. 'Where did you acquire them, if it's not too forward of me to ask?'Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
'Niara,' the woman says, taking the proffered hand and shaking, with a firm grip. 'I'd by lying if I said I weren't jealous of you. Being able to build a device like that...' She gives a soft sigh. 'Did you learn to do that at this academy?'
Niara doesn't seem to notice the emblem, though if she did, it doesn't spark any signs of recognition.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
'And what does being a hunteress entail?' Niara asks, turning fully on her seat and giving Caelynn her full attention. Despite the sharpness to her facial features, there's a young inquisitiveness to it too - not what one might expect from such a suave-looking individual.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
'A noble cause indeed,' Niara says, tipping her wine glass in a toasting motion, before taking another drink. 'I'd like to say I offer my own assistance to civilised society, but really I'm just looking to learn more about... well, anything and everything.'
Her drone, meanwhile, has begun to scope out the other patrons of the tavern. Whether it's out of boredom or just because of some innate protocol, who knows.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
I always wondered, what is bamhacon? Is it both dishes on one plate, or is it somehow a combination of both? If it's the first, what kind of ham/bacon? Smoked? Honey-baked? American, European, Canadian? If the second, how would you get the slices to sizzle like bacon? I call magic.
Spako isn't much better, although he has the excuse that he can't chew with his reptilian snout, which means he has to swallow his food whole, even if he is careful to cut it up with actual utensils.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Okay!
Alright, so I come from Vytal, the name for our homeland, which has 4 continents. There are humans and the Faunus, like me. We have animalistic traits such as monkey tails, cat ears like mine, and bull horns. Humans looked at our species as if we were inferior, but since the recent Faunus war, this has changed. However, there's a radical group of Faunus known as the White Fang, who were originally peaceful protesters, but a new leader turned them to violence, causing them to attack shops that didn't serve faunus or used us as cheap laborers. They've recently been stealing a special type of crystal called Dust in large quantities. Dust is a material that has elemental properties: red dust explodes, cyan creates ice, etcetera. They're used in weapons or as power. We also have aura, basically a magic shield, and Semblance, a special unique power. For example, I can teleport."Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not, we never are. But that's not the right question. The question is: are we living a life that is worth the harm?"

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
The story is digested with some interest, with Niara giving the occasional nod or 'mmhmm'. She makes an odd expression when Caelynn mentions her teleportation powers - her brow furrows, and she looks almost scornful for the slightest of moments.
'Sounds far more interesting than my homeplace.' Niara taps her chin with a finger, pondering. 'In fact, I'm not entirely sure where my homeplace is. I used to think that it was a part of this world, but the more I travel, the more I'm convinced it was its own separate world. Or otherwise, it doesn't exist anymore.' That last part was said in a slightly worried tone, and accompanied with a small frown.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
'Ah, you're an observant one, aren't you?' Niara inwardly curses herself for letting her expression show. 'It's just me being jealous again, my apologies. It's one thing to learn skills, like building weapons, but quite another to just be born with them.'
She takes a longer drink of her wine, finishing her glass. Her pale skin does not do a good job of hiding her reddening cheeks.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

"I certainly shouldn't have to watch you cretins eat."
"These could use some honey rolls," Garrett mumbles between bites.

"Well, you don't have to. Try flying away, crow. Or just close your eyes. That's the easy way.
And you can get some if you'd like, Garrett. Although I'm sure you were taught as a kid to finish your meal before you ask for sweets." Spako teases, back in a good mood.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.
