”Good morning.”, she answered politely in a soft tone of voice, not bothering to lift her head up just yet as the new guest entered. She had made the assumption that it was Tony since he had announced his desire to join her for tea and she could apologize in a moment for not giving a proper greeting. Her head was still throbbing, the shot giving some relief but it wasn’t anywhere near where she wished it would be. Rae sighed gently, finally making an attempt to raise her head off the table after a moment of silence and raked a hand through her hair so she could tuck it behind her ears. She was practically rubbing her temples when the other occupant in the room spoke up, drawing her attention to him but her eyes widened at the person she was staring at. She should have recognized his voice earlier but in all honesty, the pounding in her ears and throbbing her head were distracting. He had been lucky to get a reply earlier at all.

Rae sat up straighter, trying to get everything under control or else she was going to find herself blushing again. Of course he was asking about the jacket, that was logical since he wore it practically every moment. It was the exact reason she had brought with her but it didn’t change the fact it dug up memories of this morning, finding out she slept in it. Rae thanked every star above that she was able to hold a neutral expression as she looked to Raymond. She opened her mouth to reply to his question but it closed instantly when a tone chimed through the ship. It was one that they all knew quite well but was not a pleasant one by any means. She had to say she wasn’t surprised but was thoroughly irritated that they had chosen to contact them after having just completed a mission. They usually gave them a little more time in between missions, especially after more difficult and dangerous missions but now they were receiving a Code: Velvet.

She listened to the Admiral speak and the conversation held with the Captain, feeling at least a little more comfortable that they were the only ones in close range and it only made sense they assist since they were refueling on the planet anyways. It was better than them knowing the omission or white lie they told concerning Rendyl and trying to punish them. Still, why were they being graced with such rotten luck as of late? At least she was already ready for the day so it would give her a few more moments to just have some tea and relax before the briefing. She gracefully moved from her seat at the table, picking up the folded jacket that sat beside her as she did. Rae made her way to the stove where the Captain stood, carefully holding out the piece of clothing for him to take. ”I hope this answers your earlier question, Atlas. I believe it was safe in my care but please let me know if anything needs fixing. I didn’t have a chance to inspect it this morning., she stated once he took it from her. That being said, she focused on busying herself by taking the kettle and pouring a cup of tea, fixing it up with a spoonful of sugar.

He was being so quiet. Had it been a mistake to ask? Had she done something wrong? Oh goodness, maybe he was trying to find a polite way to tell her no? She bit her lip gently, the awkward silence making her nervous and she was debating if she could take back the offer somehow to save the situation. Amelia gripped the notebook a bit tighter, trying to judge if she should just jot down nevermind or something. That was when he surprised her with blurting out ‘oh!’ as if he had come to a decision. She waited for it, knowing that he had finally found a way to let her off gently. Why was she surprised? Jack was always the better one at making friends in her opinion.

She let go of the breath she didn’t realize she had been holding and her eyes widened a bit. Did she just hear him correctly? He had said yes? It took her a moment to truly register his actual response instead of debating on it but when she did, a dazzling bright smile lit up her features. Amelia felt happy, light even as skipped lightly to the doorway before giving a small twirl so she was facing Ludwig once more. She waved him over excitedly, letting him know that she was more than willing to lead the way. It really was a nice surprise that he said yes and now she just had to hope that Jack had made it to the diner by now. If not, at least she had company and she could introduce him to some more of the locals or possibly play tour guide. Heck, there might even be some other tourists there since it was a popular location.

She waited, letting him lock up the room before heading down the hallway. A quick wave goodbye was given to Ein before she exited the inn. She tried to move quickly, not really wanted to get rained on at that precise moment even though it was her favorite kind of weather. Amelia traveled down the dirt path, stopping every now and then to not get ahead or to check that she hadn’t lost her companion. It didn’t take both of them long to reach the diner. She opened the door confidently, plopping into her usual booth before patting the table top across from her, letting Ludwig know to have a seat. It didn’t look like her brother had made it yet but nothing she could do about that. If they were lucky, he would be there soon and she could at least introduce him to a few faces she did recognize but that was for later. For now, the main focus was food and the delicious smells in the air were all the more tempting. If she wasn’t careful, her stomach might just eat itself if she waited much longer.

Glad you are still about.

I got a message from Jones a couple of days ago and it sounds like their schedule is loosening up soon. They should be able to make a post at that time :)

She stepped back, leaning softly against the wall so that the two could talk and sort things out. Amelia had heard Ein talk of the R.O.U.S. before but had never actually seen one despite the claim. She was pretty sure it was just a ghost tale, something to scare the customers or entice them to check out local lore. She believed in mythical creatures and magic but bear sized rats were a stretch, even for her. It made her silently chuckle a bit when a moment later Ein himself admitted to his not being serious about it. Amelia’s attention peaked when she was addressed with a question to which she answered with a soft smile and a shrug. Ludwig did seem to be the curious type but she didn’t know him well enough yet to judge anything for sure. It was a little startling for her to receive words of appreciation but it warmed her heart that the innkeeper had expressed them. She placed a hand gently over heart before giving a small bow.

Ein was a lot of things but she still respected him and it was the best way she could respond. If she could reply, she would have told him that she would do so any time. That she didn’t need the appreciation for such a simple act but this was the best she could manage. It seemed like a split second later, the older man was back in business mode as a glare was focused at Ludwig and they were back at getting things situated for the younger man’s stay. She pushed off the wall gently, listening to her companion’s reply and answers. This was one of the things that made this place amazing or at least people always said so. No matter what you were looking for, the Inn had it. It was just a matter of what you were wanting. She barely had time to register or think more on the matter though as a key flew by, Moe being the champion since she doubted either of them would have caught it.

Amelia gave a small nod, following close behind as they both headed down the hallway until they were outside the door with the glossy plaque reading ‘101’. She looked to Ludwig, noticing that his arms were a bit preoccupied with the bags and went to give him a tap on the shoulder, planning to offer assistance but she ended up stopping mid air. Moe was again, the champion of keys it would seem. The two having a simple rhythm down without words as the squirrel ran down the boy’s arm, unlocking the door and even opening it so Ludwig could do the rest. Amelia blushed in embarrassment, pulling her arm back to tuck into her chest and before it could be noticed. She bit her lip lightly, closed her eyes for a split second so could get her embarrassment under control. This is why she hated meeting new people. There was no way to judge what she could just do and so she either had to be useless or risk upsetting someone.

If she could have just spoken then she could have helped. Heck, there was a lot of things that would be easier if she could simply speak her mind. A lot of people misunderstood her actions or judged them without trying to see what she meant or ask her to clarify. She knew people that just avoided her because of how she seemed with others just by misreading. After all, writing only helped if people were willing to read it. It was Ludwig’s sudden exclamation about the room that had her drawing back from her thoughts. Amelia stepped closer, making sure to stay in the doorway so she wasn’t intruding. It did look nice and cozy. It looked in way better shape than the hallways, that was for sure. A growl from her stomach reminded her of where she had been headed when she had been side tracked with this adventure and clearly it wasn’t happy with her for doing so. Jack might have even been up and headed there by now too.

Amelia gave a small knock on the door to grab Ludwig’s attention. She nervously stepped into the room, digging back into her pocket for the notebook and pencil and started writing her message slowly. It was very possible the answer would be no because she was after all a stranger and some people after a long trip just want to be alone. If that was the case then at least she had been able to meet someone new and help them out but if he said yes, then they could have more time to talk and maybe become friends. If anything, at least she would understand the person that might become a new mystery partner since there was the matter of their deal.

She held out the paper for him to see, looking at him with a hopeful expression. It wasn’t like she was in control of that but she did hope for a ‘yes’. It didn’t mean it would happen but at least she could say she tried. It was the best she could do after all. It wasn’t like she would beg if he said no. That would just be weird and okay, she was weird but not that weird.

Not sure if it is just me but there seems to be something weird happening with the coding in some sections so I can’t read them. It is like the text is on top of each other.
