 Misora grinned hearing the girl's name. "It's nice to meet you Ski." she said, "And I will. The night shift cook is pretty nice, I think deserves a compliment now and then" she continued happily. "So your new to Sanctum, right? I've been here for about 6 years. My sister and I moved here as soon as she knew I existed and was made my guardian. I forget the name of the town where I'm from, but I remember it had a lot of trees, it was in the middle of the forest. Whats it like where you come from?" she asked, and waited patiently with the same smile as before.

"Was there a breath anywhere in there?" Ski asked herself mentally as she watched Misora chat away.
When she spoke of her home, Ski wasn't surprised by what she described. The thief picked up almost instantly that she was of tree nymph decent so being in the forest was expected. At the mention of a sister, Ski looked over at the bar where she had seen an older elf girl...it had to be her; they seemed to have some similar features.
"I'm from all over kid, I tend to wonder, Sanctum is just another city to me...I'm just wondering through..." she droned.
Ski could barely remember the village she was born too. Just the flashes of images of this or that, coming and going just as quickly as they had come. It was small village though, in the forest near some plains...nothing special and now burned to the ground. It only gave Ski nightmares so she didn't think on it much.

((Mitsuki's in the back rooms with Heyen right now, no one can see her)) Misora nodded knowingly. Mitsuki, her sister, had often told her tales of the many places she had lived in and traveled to. She remembered how hard Mitsuki said it was, but this person seemed as if she'd been doing it for awhile. Maybe it got easier after a while. "Doesn't that ever ware down on you? Traveling all the time, not having a home?" she asked, with a small, curious smile on her lips. Her eyes were bright, and full of curiousity. She wanted to know. She needed to know. She waited paciently though, as before.

((my bad...i fixed it))
At the kids question, Ski couldn't help but smirk. The hint of a fang being revealed between her darkened lips.
Did it ware Ski down? No...her life style did though. Thieving wasn't easy and it caused problems, but it was the only way she could survive...the only way she knows. She was always constantly running to begin with, what's a little more running for another reason.
"I'm resilient kiddo," she commented after a while. "And that question means I would have to know what a home was...I haven't had a home for a long time...to the point that I barely remember it anymore."
Ski knew nothing else, so there was no means of comparison.

Misora nodded as she listened. "That makes sense. You can't want what you don't know." she thought, her lips in a straight line, and her eyes a bit distant. Her thoughts had traveled back to her sister, she had had a home, many times, but some longer than others. And her school also was a home for a number of years. And now, Sanctum. It made much better sense now. A smile slowly came to her face, brightening it up as it did. "So that's why Mitsuki doesn't want to move with me so much, she's had a home and has been without one and can tell which is better." Visibly happy with her answers to questions that had been nagging at her for awhile she asked another question. This time, it had no link to her sister. "So how long will you be staying here? Since you move around so much." she said, smiling cheerfully as she waited for her answer.

Continuing to eat her meal, Ski saw Misora's thoughtful look and happy expression. Why she was happy and had such a sense of achievement coming off of her, the mix-breed didn't know. Nether was Ski going to ask about it.
However, the child's question was one that Ski didn't have an answer to.
Lounging back onto her chair, Ski shrugged.
"Depends really..." she droned taking a sip of her wine. "On how long I want to stay and how soon I'm run out."

Misora giggled at Ski's response. "Why would you be ran out of town?" she asked with her usual smile. "People here only get run out of town if they hurt or kill someone. I can't even remember the last time some one was run out of town." she continued, then giggled again. The thought of someone being kicked out of Sanctum was new to her. And this girl in front of her didn't seem to be a killer, or insane. She waited for the hooded girl's response with a smile. "I wonder if thats why she has no home, because people always shooed her away. Sanctum is a home for all, I hope she stays awhile. Everyone needs a home." she thought as she waited for an answer.

Why...what a stupid question, though Misora wouldn't know the answers,. but Ski did. She saw it in the mirror everyday. At the mere thought of the reasons why she was always run out, the teal haired thief threw back a giant gulp of her wine.
The giggling was a little too much, but Ski would handle it. This was a first time in a long while someone had actually talked to her.
"Why...for multiple reason kiddo...and none of them good, so I'll save you the gruesome details," she droned scooping up the last of her stew, and using the bread and cheese to get the last remains.
"I haven't stayed in a town longer then a few months...before I had people breathing down my neck, so I leave; it's that simple. Sanctum won't be much different I'm sure..."

"You would be surprised....Ski." Chasm laughed as he carried over a tray of tree plates, holding a tray with three plates of steaming food. "Here you go ladies. Hope you like the food."
Most of the tavern patrons were staring at the three. Not because of the group but of the food that they were being served. "Misora is a favorite of the tavern because of Mitsuki, and Heyen always spoiled the child so the food that was given was almost different and unique. And this isn't the only special occassion. We do have a newbie in Sanctum so this calls for a special dish as well." Chasm said, having no shame in admitting to that.
One plate had a large crab, cracked so that the meat was easy to take out, sided with steaming broccoli (covered in cheese) and a couple of shrimp pieces. As a sauce they had a red spice, one of the chef's special that he so arrogantly called "Hell's spice", "Don't use the sauce if you can't handle spicy stuff. It'll be sweet for five seconds but then you're insides will burn. Good luck in the bathroom.." Chasm warned.
On the second plate were two bowls of spaghetti noodles with different types of meat and vegetables mixed in to it (one for each girl).
The last had a large eel sliced and coated in a special sweet and sour gravy that often left a tingling sensation surge through the body. Many customers (of the normal types) could never frown on it.
"And here's your lemonade, Misora. I didn't know what you wanted." He told her as he put her glass down then turned to Ski. "And here's your lemonade, Misora. I didn't know what you wanted."[color=red]"And it's on the house so don't worry about anything. Now can we look under your hood."[color/]Chasm smiled, waiting for Ski's reply.

At suddenly hearing her waiter's voice, Ski's head shot his way quickly. What caught her full attention was the mass of food he was carrying. Further explaining that it was for the two of them...Ski's mouth began to water.
Crab...was a rarity. And eel...she loved eel and only caught the ones in rivers which weren't the best and eaten plain, but this looked delicious. She would avoid the spice though...the thief didn't do spice well.
"For free...just because I'm new..." she droned still surprised at the sense of generosity; so rare.
Course when Chasm asked about her hood, Ski went stiff; a scowl appearing on her face. "So that's what this is about? Bribing me with food so you can see under my hood? Well I'll tell you I don't let anyone see under my hood unless necessary, or if I trust them," she said firmly.
Ski hated letting her hood down. Whenever her hood fell, it was always the sneers and cries of demon that came. And it was soon after that Ski was run out of town.

Misora grinned when she saw Chasm and was practically drooling over the smells from the food. "This is just like Mitsuki And my first time here." she thought, and blushed when Chasm mentioned her being a favorite. She took the veggie plate and put some noodles on it. She laughed when he said she should remove her hood, and nodded once she said she wouldn't. "Food isn't a good type of bribing Chasm." she said with a smile. "And I think Ski's too stubborn to be bribed with money." She continued. "I wonder if her face got scarred when she was young, before she didn't have a home." she thought, connecting Ski's reaction to what she had been told. She shrugged it off though, and started eating her pasta. She was grinning as she chewed. Once she swallowed she grinned at Chasm, "This is great! Thanks Chasm." she said cheerfully, then continued to eat at an increasingly rapid rate.

(I forgot all about Heyen and Mitsuki..)
"No it wouldn't be polite, especially since you work here!" Heyen beamed, spinning on his heel as he headed out towards the door. "And such things could wait. I'm sure Misora is hungry as well, and I will have a special dish ordered just for the two of you. Hah!"
Once again he spun on his heel once he was outside the door and opened his arms out in a joyous gesture. "So, TONIGHT!" Heyen yelled, suddenly sprinting out of the backrooms and into the tavern itself, jumping on the counter and walking on it, avoiding plates, arms and glass, "We will eat! And we will DRINK! And we will all sleep here!"
Without a true understanding of what was going on most of the patrons cheered and stood up, downing their alchohol into their system's and suddenly speeding their eating ways.
Chasm took note of both of the girl's reactions, Misora's the most noticeable since he could see her face. He had yet to see at least the nose of Ski's.
However, once he was accused of a crime he gasped feminine like.I wassn't trying to bribe at all! I was just suggesting she should in order to enjoy this meal! But hearing how Misora was describing Ski he was beginning to wonder what kind of girl she was behind her robe and hood.
He stared at the teal colored female, that alone judging her to be unique in some way. And just when he was about to say something Heyen practically leapt out of the backrooms and shouted in joy. That alone made Chasm slowly straighten himself and prepare for one of those nights. Spending time with Misora and Ski would now be difficult.
"Well, I guess..you'll see what kind of place this tavern can be, Ski." He winked at her and nodded to her food. "Eat up - with your hood on. As Heyen said, Tonight we eat, and drink. Of course Misora does not but you will." He pointed to Ski as he began to walk away, hearing other patrons begin calling for him. Other waiters and waitresses were now running about. "If you need anything - scream CHASM!" He yelled through the growing ruckus.

Chasm's answer was proof enough he was trying to bride her. Ski gave a huff of disbelief. "Yea I'm sure that was your intention...and even if you had said that, my hood would not be coming down. So you're better off not pressing the subject."
Ski glanced from under hood at Chasm. His gaze was curious and his lips parted to obviously disregard her words and inquire further. For once though, the thief was glad that the manager jumped on to the counter and gave out a exclamation of drinking and eating.
She huffed...tonight was going to be long; her plans going out the window. That is if she chose to stay the night and see what this tavern was about...which would be like most taverns she was sure.
As Chasm made his farewell and order to eat up, Ski flung back more of her wine.
"I never said I was going to stay..." she mumbled over the loud crowd.

((Oh, at first I thought you didn't include Heyen because you were too busy to post his piece.))  Mitsuki laughed as Heyen ran out of the back rooms. She followed, though at a slower pace. She had to stop once she entered the Tavern area to laugh, she had arrived just in time to hear what Heyen had to say. She cheered loudly with the rest of the crowd. "I'll get back to Heyen in a few minutes, that is unless he finds me first." she thought. She then looked around the room with a grin, which changed into a smirk once she found her target. "So, Misora's made a new friend. I hope she hasn't overwelmed her too much." she thought, knowing all too well how prying and persuasive Misora could be. Even if others didn't notice it, possible not even Misora, or perhaps, simply not yet. With a confident smile she started striding toward Misora and Ski. Misora was surprised to see Heyen's change in attitude so quickly, but smiled broadly. "I knew he wasn't going to die!" she thought triumphantly. She laughed at Chasm's response to her statements. She laughed after Ski made her's. "Why wouldn't you stay? I'm sure Heyen's cleaned the guest rooms in the back, and there's enough back there for everyone to have their own. Plus your new, I doubt you have an apartment yet. The weathers terrible outside, here its safe, and whenever Heyen's in this type of mood he tends to give away a lot of free drinks." she said, finishing with a wink, then giggled. She took a sip of lemonade and ate another bite of pasta. "So, will you stay?" she asked cheerfully, but also with a hopeful happy gleam in her eyes. It was hard to resist, one of her many charming qualities. Just then she felt a hand on her shoulder and turned her head, once she saw who it was, she grinned. Mitsuki made her way around the room at the fastest she could in her condition, and with all the interfering drunks. Apparently they didn't know she was on break, and wouldn't be serving them tonight. Through the mass of drunks, hyper and excited now from Heyen's words, she made her slow progression to Misora and the hooded girl. Once she was finally there she placed a hand on Misora's shoulder with a smile. "Mitsuki!" Misora said happily. Mitsuki laughed, "Well, It seems you've already been served. Heyen might be a bit sad, he said he had a special meal for us." Mitsuki said with a smirk, then smiled looking at Ski, then looked back at Misora, "So, who's your new friend?" she asked cheerfully. Without giving Ski a chance to say anything Misora immediately spoke, "This is Ski, Ski, this is my sister Mitsuki." she said, gesturing to each of them respectively. She then looked back at Mitsuki, "She's new here, so Chasm gave us all this good food!" she said happily. Mitsuki smiled, she knew Chasm, he was a good guy. She had had some good evenings when business was slow just joking around with him. Mitsuki looked at Ski with a warm smile, "It's nice to meet you Ski." she said, then held out her hand to shake with Ski's. "I hope my sister wasn't too annoying, I know how nosy she can be at times." she said with a smirk. Misora blushed, "I'm not nosy! I just like getting to know people!" she said, defending herself. Mitsuki laughed.

(I try to not used that as an excuse.)
"Hey, Lilith!"
Heyen cried out from the kitchen, poking his head out. Though unlike usual he actually had his Incubus horns sticking out, either from excitement or just to show and tell them. They weren't all that marvelous or prideful to brag about. Simple horns merely poking out beneath his hair, his skin a purplish and reddish hue, both of his eyes now hazel rather than gray. His hair had even changed from the matching gray to a burning red.
"I want two botftles of Vodka at Mitsuki's table! And a pitcher of lemonade for the little miss! Don't forget to bear claw and rabbit feet!" Heyen called, his devilish tail poking out from the kitchen door to rub at his chin. "Mm..I wonder what else they would like..CHASM!" He yelled, heading back into the kitchen to discuss with the waiter.
"..Give me three minutes!" A waitress finally cried out in late reply after dotting down orders and practically jogged hurriedly to the counter to juggle orders and place them in the correct places.
