Alcaeus grimaced as he received his room key, looking at the number on the tag with a mix of disdain and anxiety. "510? Five whole floors up? Not a fan of stairs but beggars can't be choosers." And with a grunt he swooped up his bags once more, one arm to one bag with a fifth to spare for his room key. He was already among the weird and wonderful, so why hide his lineage? It was a short task to find his room and deposit the bags he had, all clattering and clanking as they sounded filled to the brim with... something. With a click of the lock and a skip down the stairs, he had arrived back in the main lobby. He looked around for a moment, deciding what to do first before the festivities began. [i]'Some interaction and maybe a drink wouldn't hurt.'[/i] He moseyed over to the bar like a man with nothing better to do, knocking on the bar as he sat down. "One ice-water, please." A mundane order, some might say it was a relatively boring order, but he needed the hydration after riding for so long to get here. The drink came and he nodded to the bartender, receiving a confused stare in return as he turned away to look out at the other residents scrabbling about. An extraterrestrial, a shapeshifter, a countess and her countless thralls, a kitsune and others he had not seen yet. Nothing he had not seen before. Being alive since before dates were invented had that effect. Then again, he had never really taken the time to interact with those he HAD seen, so why not now, when he was on 'vacation'? He waves over to them, hoping to grab some attention. "Hello there, folks."
