Being truly on my own is a bit of a weird feeling. It's never really happened.

Let it never be said that sometimes extreme brevity isn't the most appropriate post, though. Everything is a tool.

Corinne and Liliane


It wasn't the voice in her ear that made Liliane jump, it was the question. This... what sort of fairy went around asking questions like that!? They weren't supposed to be interested in that sort of thing! Even if it was the sort of tactless question you would expect of them but... "No! That wasn't why!"

The warrior's hands hadn't gone to try and swat the fairy, though one hand was wrapped around a dagger and ready to draw. She was also quite aware that now people were staring, even Corinne--herself previously cringing at the thought of fighting undead--cocking her head curiously to wonder what it was that had gotten her so immediately agitated.

Consider Corinne's accent to be mostly french. xD
Well, that's preferable to when you can't. xD

So she wasn't answering? That was fine, she'd get the answer before Alette left. It would be nice if it wouldn't come to violence but if it did... well, the half-giant seemed like an exciting opponent, maybe more than the merc captain did. There was something more exciting about opponents who couldn't be physically overwhelmed, especially when they were hidden behind so much armour. An excellent test of finesse...

"Hey! You don't know that," Tyaethe said, reacting to Alette's... odd description of Fanilly, "You might be right but it's not as if it's that strict a requirement or if we check. Well, unless you've got some strange divinatory ability..."
Corinne and Liliane


Rather than answer her name, Liliane had darted back to the table, tugging a pitiable-looking Corine after her. Honestly, how expressive she could be with those ears... did she need to look that much like a kicked puppy just because her dinner was left slightly unfinished? It wasn't like she couldn't go back and eat it after they were done signing up. Fortunately, Corinne cheered up pretty much immediately, even though she was remaining firmly behind Liliane.

Not that it did all that much good to hide behind her, since they were the same height and Liliane was a waifish thing.

"Liliane," the white-haired Hundi said, keeping her introduction brief.

Unaware that she had already been introduced, Corinne followed suit, accent surprisingly pronounced, "Corinne Julienne Delphine de Tiffauges, at your service. Ah... I'm quite a new wand, so I 'ope you won't hold it against me. But my wife is much more experienced than I am!"

She was even pushing Liliane ahead slightly, as if trying to offer her as a bribe.
Beni-Enma


Runa found her command falling on empty space, her Servant having moved even before she could finish speaking or even react to what was going on. When it came to reaction times, the childlike Servant boasted a response that was almost second to none, even before one could factor in her own innate sense for danger. Then, when it came to moving quickly, few were those who could keep up with a bird in flight, especially one like this.

Which is to say, by the time Runa had finished giving the command, Beni-Enma had already rushed to the source of the explosion in an attempt to determine the perpetrator.
Corinne and Liliane


As she had said, Liliane got up to look at the boards, eyes flicking through the appropriate quests. It couldn't be too easy--those were dull and she didn't want to take any work away from those just starting out--but it also couldn't be something too hard due to Corinne's total lack of experience. Out of those that seemed the right range... ah, an extermination or an exploration quest? Whilst there was no doubt that magic would be an efficient way of clearing out orcs, she just couldn't see the soft-hearted girl really taking that well as her first really combat-focused job.

"Room for more? I'm looking for something less combat-focused," the white-haired Hundi said, hearing the paladin's statement of interest. "Still getting Corinne over there used to adventuring."

Neither of them fit the bill for "taller", only the guild's fairies and Nem were shorter than they were, but Liliane was reasonably well known as an experienced adventurer. Not so well-known, but hardly a secret, was that she'd gone on a trip to Ithillin and come back married--it didn't take a genius to work out where Corinne came into all this, then.
Cat


"That is my problem," the catgirl said, pausing in rolling off her one sock to point at the newcomer, "It's cold and wet! We could go a way that isn't cold and wet!" Although the complaints aside, Tanja appeared to be in no hurry to push the matter, taking her footwear in her free hand and starting to walk downstream. Apart from her somewhat grumpy expression, she didn't really appear to be affected by the code; there was certainly no shivering going on.

"I'll say if I find any sudden holes or something you can fall in."

If nothing else, might as well let the person who wouldn't be seriously injured long-term by natural hazards take the lead.
Corinne and Liliane


The two Hundi were also over by the tavern, though eating as well as drinking. Liliane kept giving the bottle of Ithillane wine Corinne had immediately gone for a frustrated look; it was possibly the most expensive thing you could get here without asking for something truly exotic. To her, one of those adventurers who hoarded every penny she could earn... that sort of spending was just uncomfortable. Not having to be concerned about money was just such a... strange thought and she still couldn't get used to her wife's frankly cavalier attitude towards buying things worth as much as an entire job payment.

Corinne was, naturally, blissfully unaware of such things, eating through the hearty stew with a thoughtful look. Probably not to suggest ways the taste could be improved--she'd already stopped talking about that--but instead to stare at the elf. "Maybe I should practice my Elvish? I would hate to forget how..."

Liliane fiddled with her spoon a bit. This girl... "You've been speaking it your whole life and keep forgetting I don't understand it. That's not going to happen."

"But what if? I never left home this long before!"

"You've never been to Thaeln and you haven't forgotten that, have you?"

"Well, no..."

"There you are, then. Anyway, I'll go look at jobs in a minute..."

The one downside for anyone hoping to listen in was the entire conversation being in Ithillane.
I could probably post, I think? It just feels a bit weird.
