Ichi fell onto her bottom as she was released from the girl's grasp. She imediately turned tumbling herself to face the oppositw way. She saw the other womn and binked standing up. Ichi scratched her head, shifting her weight to her right leg, placing her hand onto her hip, her tail relaxing.
"What was that all about?"

"I'm sorry," she said once more before standing back to five and a half feet. "I felt your life force and mistook it for someone I've been looking for." They're so remarkably similar. Even now I would wear he's right here. Her eyes diverted from the girl to her dropped bags. "I made you drop these. Please allow me to help you carry them. It's not a great gesture, but still..."

Ichi paused to think for a bit. The same life force? Ichi shrugged it off, thinking she was just being careless. She nodded to the girl.
"Sure."
The elevator doors opened behind her and she stepped in, holding her hand in front of the sensor, waiting for the other girl.
"C'mon. My room is on the seventh floor."

"Okay." The girl picked up the fallen bags and slowly made her way into the elevator, patiently awaiting their ascent. "My name is Red," she said awkwardly and abruptly, showing her lack of social graces. "You uhm...live here?"

Ichi nodded, looking at the girl in a curious, wierd way. She smiled at her, masking her physical thoughts about the other girl.
"Yes, I live with my boyfriend."

"Oh you have a boyfriend?" She inquired quizzically, beaming like a happy school child. "What's he like? I bet he's tall and handsome and very statueque ne? Did he sweep you off your feet, making you fall madly in love with him?" Her face was completely flustered as the thought made her giddy. She seemed to have come to life all at once.

Seeping from underneath the heavy double doors of Orion a black mass of liquid made its way into the room. Congealing into a large puddle within the main room, the silhoutte of a tall man could be seen. Stepping out of the murk darkness, it remenants seemed to take the form of his shadow. Walking further into the room darkness that still clung to his form began to fall away in small droplets into his shadow.
"A long time..."
Clasping his gauntleted hands he yawned, his white tail grazing the ground beneath him.
"So what now..."

"Well that's a face I haven't seen in a while," comes the voice fo Keno from the lounge. He soon brings his form into view as he greets Sasha. "I hope to find you in good health sir." A light bow interrupts Keno's stride before he continues for the bar. He hadn't been around much and hadn't heard any news on his match either. It appeared Orion was about as inactive as ever without a tournament match going on. If only he was able to do something about that.

Ichi laughed.
"No, we've been friends for a while, and I liked someone else, then he finally told me he liked me, and I guess when he told me that, I liked him back."
She smiled at her turning to face the doors as they opened. She stepped out only a few feet away from the doors motioning towards the left.
"Just set the bags there."

Grinning broadly at the man's greeting, the snow fox bowed his head.
"Yeah...its something we nomads do. And how are you doing? I see that strange behavior you exhibited when we last met has subsided. You appeared lost at that time. But I don't portend to be a seer."
Making note of Keno making a beeline towards the bar, he shrugs and follows suit.
"What goes on here? I have had little word from my student, so I decided to check in."

The girl nodded respectfully as she entered the room and set the bags down. A shiver ran down her spine as she once again sensed that same presence within the room. "No one seems to be here...I kinda wanted to meet him." She said in a chipper tone as she exited the room. "I'm sorry again for my behavior miss..."

"Rest assured my friend Epithany is just fine. From what I can tell, she is happy with her marriage, but not quite ready to have children yet. If I caught the conversation correctly, I believe she's put her reproductive functions on pause more or less. I don't pretend to know what she did or how." A wave of his hands over the bar summons an array of drinks, both wet and dry, and two glasses. He carefully slid one glass to Sasha as he opened a carton of grape juice and filled his 5/8, adding another 3/8 of Everclear. "Care for a drink?"

Ichi waved her hand at her.
"Don't worry about it."
She looked around for a bit, akward silence came into her twitching ears. After a while, she felt Keno, smiling.
"You wanna go back downstairs? I have a feeling he's down there, and I'm kinda thirsty anyway."

"Sure I'd love to meet him!" The girl responded, enthusiastic with the offer. She ignored not receiving her host's name, feeling perhaps it was not necessary. She headed back to the elevator, but didn't know how to make it work. "Uhm..."
