Theodore saw Cesar arrive downstairs and listened to the song from a position much closer than most of the others in the building. Once the Bard finished, he began clapping slowly, ceasing after five or so to say something. "A boasty song, but a welcome one at times such as these. We've got to give 'em shadows what-for since there isn't anybody else we could trust to do that job right now." If nothing else, it had made him feel better about their situation. While Thea also had a point, at least there was someone who saw this like him. The shadows would be beaten and driven back. After all, there was no keeping down the forces of light and good.

Once more people gathered around, Cesar commented on people getting nice and cosy for the night. The words served as a cue for Theodore to peek at Thea's direction, but he was quick to blush and draw his gaze away. But so what if they did? It was nothing but a shared bed, even if they happened to have a liking to each other. Yet the words managed to bother him. Curious. It wasn't only him and Thea who had shared a bed though, for he was pretty sure Wick and Katia had also been there somewhere. Not that he would have specifically been looking for them.

Fianlly the bunch of adventurers was joined by their as-local-as-one-could-get guide Birbin, who rather characteristically seemed to have forgotten what they were supposed to be doing and in what order. The cases of the [i]Hall[/i], the [i]Green Man[/i] and the [i]one more guy out there somewhere[/i] were brought up, but Theodore was rather certain of the place where they should be starting from. "My instincts would say we head for the Hall. It's close, it won't move and we might even run into our other goals there." He believed others would agree and began preparations for getting on the move.

The crossbow was fine, his armour was in good shape, he could feel the magic and the light within him and his bolts were also all accounted for. Well, all fourteen of them he still had on his person in any case. "Remind me to acquire more crossbow bolts before I run out", he requested not really from anyone specifically. It was more of a trick to get his own head remember. The final step of the preparations was to don the mask, but since they were yet inside, he let it stay on his hand for now, flashing a shy smile to Thea.

Theodore has suggested we head to the Hall first.
