[cog island streets]

"anywhere be fine with me, done feels good to stretch me legs again!"

Wuneye felt like he could hike around the city a lot longer than entirely necessary. "Doy you need to get anything or are we jus' seein' da' sights?" He asks His passenger (aka Penelope)

As they wander about, the balding man Penelope (and trisdeska) had noticed, was following them discreetly, Keeping the laples of his jacket covering the sides of his face. His gaze was fixed on the giants back, "I know that construct," he mutters "Yet something is far too different for it to be the same hulk i sent floating out the window....." The man wished he had his hat.

Wuneye stopped a moment, nearly giving the man a panic attack, and looked around. "huh... coulda sworn I was bein' watched there..." wuneye says before starting off again.


(i was gonna say heart attack but that would be a bit tasteless at this point)

[sick bay](ugg freakin viris hit my comp, so i might not be on as as much for a few weeks till i can fix the damn thing)

Mochi wakes up and howls loudly, proding his sleeping master to wake up.
"waa...? ehh?" Nishi sits up and yawns sleeply as his dog starts barking at him. Noticing the doctor wasn't in he rises, flinchingin doing so, He really need t find a cabin so he could clean his grimy self up. His dog dashs out the door and down the stairs to where all of teh commotion is. Nishi does his best to follow suit.

[hanger]

"Wicked mutt", Martha swore before blowing off her nose one last time.

The elf looked around. The place was covered in dust, with a few vehicles on the floor and a brassy, rusted, mechanical arm on the back. Of course, having worked around mad scientists, Martha is now used to that kind of place, even though she was not allowed to wander there.

She remembered when she sneaked into some laboratory. She then saw a gigantic robot that moved frantically. Thinking it was broken, the blue woman tried to fix it, but only made it worse. The last thing she recalled is that she was fired afterwards.

"Wicked robot", she swore again under her breath. The elf then got rid of the dust on her costume and looked around for someone who would not be too busy to hear her new song.

[in the town]

Alexandria glanced over her shoulder and shivered. The feeling that they were indeed being followed had just crept it's way up her neck, making the hair stand on end.

"Clank, keep an eye out will you?" She muttered as they walk.
"blang.." it nodded solemnly and turned it's head slightly to the side.

After they had walked for a few minutes in silence, the clank nodded it's head behind them, and Alexandria spotted a balding man standing the the shadows for a moment before he vanished into the alleyway.

She leaned over and whispered to Wuneye and Penelope quietly,
"Let's see if we really are being followed."

Ahead of the road was a small lace shop with it's delicate displays hanging elegantly in the windows.

"I believe I could do with some new gloves, lets go in there." She pointed and slid down from the shoulder of the clank.

{Cabins}

The pup whined at the sorrowful site. Nishi paused glancing at everybody and then the body of the girl laying there looking pale and lifeless. His stomache twisted painfully and he covers his mouth.

"W-what....what exsactly happened here?"

"people don't simpley die unless they're really old an stuff, she looks like a healthy younge lass, young lasses don't simply die." He rubs his temple. "....what kind of makeup is she wearing? and...where exsactly is this part of the ship?"

Myles looks to Finagle. "The port authority will find out all that when they investigate the matter. But there are many sicknesses which can remain unseen."

{cabin level}
wiping the tears from his eyes, Daniel regains his composure, He would need it for the report he would have to make.

"Mr. Finagle if you hadn't noticed we are on the cabin level" Daniel says with a wry smile. I need to alert the authorities on this, this madness. Perhaps it may be wise after all and hire someone with an eye for the arcane whatnot. If there is a curse about this ship, i want it gone." Nodding at the two men, he heads out of the cabin and back on deck.

finding Sister Mary Ann and Brother Phineas discussign the plans of the repairs with Ace and Talon, He apporaches the group. "ladies and Gentelman, we have had a most unforutunate event with our passenger. She has died of unknown reasons in her cabin. no evidence of any attack, but I must inform the authorities of this."

Composing himself again, He turns and starts his wings buzzing out over the deck and out of the hanger. Even the hum of his wings and wavering flightpath sound sad.

[cog island lace shop]
Wuneye sets Penelope down as the approach the shop, That nagging feeling was still present. When he saw which shop they had come to, and that the ladies were heading in, was a lace shop. several window manikins showed off the apparel... with little to hide the lacy things.

Wuneye's face grew a deeper shade of blue. (not having red blood cells made it hard to blush properly) "I'll just wait out here, Dont fit rightly in the door anyhow." He turns and stands ramrod straight, with a hand over his eyes. and remains in that position as the ladies walk inside, their amusement at his embarrassment is obvious.

******
Wuneye peeked out the side of his eye and spotted someone watching them from a alleyway, who quickly ducked back inside. Wuneye was not as dumb as most would think... well not after that lady sparky and his past self had worked him over.

[lace shop]

Alexandria nodded and primly covered her mouth with her hand to hide the smile creeping over her lips. The clank looked at Wuneye for a moment before taking the same stature as him on the opposite side of the shop's doorway, giving the two the look of a very mismatched pair of guards.

Inside the shop, one could hardly see the walls for all the lace finery that dripped from it. The shop keeper looked up with deep-set eyes and wiped his thin hands on a cloth before greeting the girls.

"Welcome to my humble store missus, what can I help you find this find day?"
He looked the two young ladies over quickly. They looked as if they might have some money about them, "I assure you all products are handmade."

"I'm sure they are, " Alexandria said stiffly, glancing out the window before looking back at the shop keeper with hooded, aristocratic eyes.

The man stiffened slightly.

"I'll be requiring a pair of fine cream gloves, about this long," She gestured to her elbow, " And...I thing a pair for my friend here as well. May we see the stocks?"

As the man was gathering boxes Alexandria glanced out the window again to see a glimpse of the balding man in the shadows...

{cabins}

"oh." At last He could get properly cleaned up. " I guess i better pick one." Pointing to the cabin next to former passanger. "Do you know if this cabin is tooken and if there's a spare trunk of clothes any where?" He scratchs his head and looks down taking a sorrowful glance at ash pale girl. an utter shame really, She looked quite pretty. But as they say, only the good die young.

[cog island ally]

"they must have some money from the looks of them, and with those cog's out front they might just have a ship." he ducked his head back into the ally as he noticed that he was spotted, knocking his arm into the wall he cursed under his breath his clockwork arm tearing through his coat. he checked to see if there was any damage when he noticed his watch in his hand. "already? god some time i wonder if i should just give you up." he pulled out out a large brass key and inserted it into the slot in his shoulder cranking it a few turns before stacking the key and returning to spy on the guarded door.

[The Lace Shop]

Penelope followed Miss Alexandria into the lace shop, barely able to keep herself from looking all about in wonderment. She had never been in anywhere so fancy so...so feminine. Poor Wuneye, and that Clank, having to wait outside...

She stayed close to Miss Alexandria, her childish awe still visible on her face as they stepped up to the counter and spoke with the man. Elbow length gloves? This was turning into more of an adventure than the ship's cook had thought it would. Penelope was used to markets and the like, rough places, a lace shop was new to her. She kept her hands folded in front of her, just in case she might somehow damage something.

The creeping feeling of being followed and watched that the others had mentioned was beginning to make itself known to her as they waited inside the shop. Penelope wanted to be back closer to the protection of Wuneye and the Clank, but she was not going to leave Miss Alexandria by herself in the shop after she had been so thoughtful as to call Penelope her friend. She looked out the window, past the mannequins, and smiled a little nervously.

[lace shop]

Alexandria smiled with tight lips as the man placed a few boxes on the table and opened them expectantly for the ladies to examine.

She leaned over to the cook and whispered, "Look at each pair for a moment slowly before you pick one, or he'll think we're to eager to buy them."

Alexandria looked down her nose expertly at the gloves for a few silent minutes before selecting a pair adorned with small glass beads at the very edges. Tiny lace vines twisted around the arm to end in a delicate flower at the hand's back.
