	Sanji was feeling as if the world were trying to delay him when Kallun showed up, his excitement clearly on par with Celeste's own. The two were so sociable, and Sanji couldn't have felt more their opposite. [color=00746b]"Allow me to accompany you. After all no journey could ever be dull with comrades as good as these!"[/color] the newcomer exclaimed, which did little for Sanji's enthusiasm for the situation.

	[color=DAA520]"I don't know about 'journey',"[/color] Sanji muttered under his breath, all the better when neither of the others seemed to hear him. He had taken to rubbing his arms beneath his cloak, hoping that it might generate enough friction to help warm him up.

	[color=skyblue]"Fate, or coincidence considering you can find any Hawk lounging around if you looked hard enough,"[/color] Celeste picked up where Kallun had ended. [color=skyblue]"But let us continue the conversation inside somewhere, poor Sanji is about to freeze over."[/color]

	Sanji didn't wait for her to finish; he had already started for the inn from which Celeste had originally appeared. Whether the other two were following, he wasn't worried. They were much too bubbly for his tastes anyway, though he tried horribly not to let it show. The door handle had taken a chill just as severe as the air around it by the time Sanji's hand touched it, but with a push, thankfully, all that was forgotten. A wave of warmth hit him as the entryway found itself wide open. Just as Sanji took a step across the threshold, a distant crash sounded from gods-know-what, bearing the echoes of what may have been splintering wood. His biggest hope was that the other Hawks hadn't gotten into too much trouble.

	He let the door swing back behind him with enough force to close it in case the others weren't following, but not so much as to slam it in their faces if they were. A soothing fire crackled in the hearth at one side of the lobby, which he promptly strode to and pulled an unoccupied stool close to it. He perched himself as comfortably as he could atop his acquired seat and extended his palms toward the gently crackling flames, allowing their radiating warmth to drive his shivering far away. Soon, the bitter chill of Drakesfoot's wind was but an afterthought.
