The Knight of the kingdom, meanwhile, was giggling with glee while rolling on the ground with the tiger.

At least he was feeling bright about the future. At least the thick layer of scar tissue on his face gave some protection from that wet sandpaper tongue.

Candace was both surprised by Harrison's final two choices and not surprised even a little bit, it was a strange feeling. She watched Harrison and Rep's interaction, chuckling and looking up at Po beside her. "I ever mention how much I love you?" She whispered quietly, reaching back to hold the hand that was hovering at her lower back and place it on her own hip. The corner of Po's mouth quirked up in a small smile. The hand squeezed Candace's hip as the tall woman leaned down to put her face against Candace's temple, her eyes closed. Candace allowed herself to relax for the first time all night.

"I believe you told me this morning." Po whispered back, kissing Candace's temple and then straightening out. "You don't usually say it in public though. Mm..you have a tear in your eye, are you okay?" Candace nodded and waved away Po's worries.

"I'm fine. Let's go see what the story of the portal malfunction is, shall we?" Po gave a nod and kept her hand on Candace's hip as she walked alongside the woman back to the stage where they had left the three visitors and Roar initially. Candace was all smiles as she approached them, her eyes lingering on the dark-skinned woman a little longer than Po liked. "You were the last to arrive, right? Can you tell me what happened, darling?"

Nuk's eyebrows lifted skeptically as Sammy appeared before him, her arms crossed as if she were annoyed with him. Which right of the bat earned her a smug little grin, toothy and completely up to no good. "Joke's on you, Cannibal, I never liked you," he replied with a little smirk, teasing her as he sipped another drink.

That was the sort of relationship they had. Most accurately described as a 'rivalry,' there was sort of a love-hate element, although the love was platonic, and the hate was in jest. Sure, they bickered, but that was how their friendship worked. They lived in the same world, but ran in completely different circles. It left them not seeing quite eye-to-eye on a few topics, although he'd have been lying if he'd said she hadn't gotten him out of a few scraps over the years. It wasn't plausible for her to take out whole gangs, but particularly dangerous members of opposing gangs... well, she'd done him a few favors, he'd leave it at that.

And not that he didn't appreciate it, but it didn't change anything.

Propping a foot on the edge of the table, Nuk had just tipped himself back a little when Sammy prodded his chest, nearly tipping him backwards, the shape-shifter flinching a little before scowling a bit at her. But that was nothing compared to the scowl she got when he mentioned 'the kiss.' Cheeeks flushing a pretty shade of pink, he looked a hilarious combination of furious and embarrassed, practically snarling at her, nearly leaping out of his chair to prod her shoulder.

"Zip it."

Cee watched every interaction carefully. She didn't know these people so it would be hard totruly read them but she was just privy to individual meetings between their King and his court. The one on one approach was an interesting one and she'd already begun to put a picture of things together in her mind. The truth was that she'd signed up to come here anyway. She may have had witnessed the fall of her kingdom, but she'd already made the choice to check this out. No change of allegiance was out of the question so long as she benefited in the end.

A woman approached in material that Cee was just itching to feel around her own hips. Her eyes travelled down, not up, down down down to Candace's shoes. Oh she'd kill for those right now.

"I tripped." Concetta lamented, lifting her foot an inch and hopping for effect. A large welt was still visible even though, honestly, it wasn't hurting very much anymore. "It was terrible."

She cast her eyes to the other Silvers. The young man had been giving her the eyes several times. He clearly wanted to talk, probably some sort of strategy, but she didn't know him. She'd heard his excuse. Portal issues. Hmmm.

"But I really don't know." Concetta outwardly lamented but seemed genuinely nice to Candace. This one, she'd play as a gal-pal for now. She couldn't be stupid, hanging with this group, so it would last so long as it lasted. "I'm sure there's some very technical excuse behind it. I'd just love a seat and drink though.." She gave Candace a slightly narrow eyed smirk.

Sammy let her mouth make just the slightest o shape as Nuk replied. Tsking ever so slightly, "You know I'll have to remember that sometime some low no name thug is asking around for you. I might just forget I'm not supposed to tell them what gutter you've been sleeping in you old Mutt."

Of course he didn't REALLY sleep in gutters, he had come close a few times but she had put him up a few times when he needed a place to stay. A few times his information came in handy, a few times a bullet kept him safe. It was a simple trade, not money, just trust and good faith that the other person wasn't going to screw them over.

Of course today she had the utmost prime material to get under his skin, getting the Shapeshifter to leap out of his chair snarling and hissing with most delightful shade of pink to his cheeks.

"Zip what?" A lone finger reached under to tap his chin as she offered a wicked grin, "What? You going to kiss me too now Mutt?"

The pink was quickly turning into a violent shade of red, his rage beginning to boil beneath the surface, fingers curling into fists. "I'm going to kiss you with my fist," he hissed, lifting said fist threateningly to her face, too flustered to try to word that sentence so it made any sort of sense.

Nevermind that he didn't like to hit girls. He'd make an exception for Sammy.

"You're going to shut your yap, or I'm going to shut it for you."

Harrison called her name, and that was that. She shot Matt a sweet smile and gave him a quick parting kiss on the cheek. "We'll have to gab later, toots, they're playin' my song!" She gave Kasi a snooty sort of wave and scooted off her stool to hear Harrison's summons.

Ying's frown only increased as the fox appeared on her hand. Harrison hadn't freed them at all. In fact, he said he'd grant it only if they came back. Quite frankly? She didn't trust Harrison as far as she could throw him (and Ying had nowhere near enough physical strength).

The way she saw it, even if they managed to live, Harrison's gang would just off her so they didn't have to owe her anything. s**t. She'd just made a crappy deal, one she couldn't take back.

"Curse you for being so short"

A palm went to her forehead. Jing had never been a stealthy sort, and right now wasn't any exception. "I'm over here, you big bird."

Andrew’s eyes studied the other people, while waiting for the doctor, when he spotted a woman approaching. She cornered in on the newcomer. Thankfully the dark skinned girl had caught on at the very least, even if he didn’t doubt for a moment that she would sell whatever she could at the best price. He probably should sell his information as fast as he could. The image of the castle taking on the shape of a snake rose to his mind again. He felt it might be important…

Surveying the kingdom, he knew he should start making connections soon, but… there was numbness in his chest. And the girl, he really didn’t want to leave her just yet. He wouldn’t admit it to himself but he was desperate for a companion, he really wanted to be able to talk to his older brother, to find him and figure out what happened. But he might be in any kingdom… or… he didn’t want to think about what might have happened if he had still been working on his woodwork in their room. But what would he say, he’d tell Andrew to adapt for now and figure out where to go from there. He put his pokerface back on. This situation called for exactly what the other silver was doing: making connections however possible.

His hand settled on his bag and fiddled with it. He still had his wares, and money in the bag. He had more than enough to adapt to the situation. As his hand ran across the front pocket he remembered something… he still had that card. He pulled it out an glanced again at the numbers. 5865-5464366. Was it… was it a phone number? Could he call and find out what trash king had meant to say to the king before the fall? Or where they something else?

“Hey.” He looked at Candace. “Do you have a phone?”

His curiosity peaked, the worst that could happen is he was simply wrong, and would get a wrong number. If he was right, maybe, maybe he could figure out what the hell happened.

"With your fist? No dear you do it with your lips like you did with him earlier." Oh she was loving this, getting under Nuk's skin was one her personal pleasures. They often got over it as quickly as they started but this was just too prime.

Reaching up she placed her own hand over Nuk's fist tugging it downward, "C'mon now, that's no way to treat a lady is it?" She leaned in a bit closer her grin practically like a shark. "You know I know a much better way to shut someone up." Leaning in closer she pressed her lips over his for but a moment, in a fleeting kiss before leaning back laughing.

"Did that shut me up long enough Mutt?"

What she had just witnessed, she wasn't sure. It seemed... important, to say the least. Like a ritual, or a pledge, an initiation? Olivia hadn't gotten any sorts of information in regards to such things, on any of the Kingdoms for that matter. All she knew about Vegas was that it was pretty close to a wretched hive of scum and villainy as far as she was concerned, it wasn't what she was used to or fond of. It wasn't home and she wasn't sure how safe she felt here around these people. Then again, she still wasn't thinking straight.

Though, some of these people seemed nice enough, from the looks of it at least. Their close relationships, but it could have also been because of their close relationships. How were they with outsiders or people like herself? Te lady from earlier - Candace? - was coming back and she did seem to be in the sort that didn't seem like she wanted to hurt them - like that guy, Roar. Unless, well.

But, Olivia fell back a little and remained silent even though she really wanted to sit down - much like the other girl from her Kingdom. She ... just didn't know how to ask for it here, would it seem too demanding? She had no idea what to do except give Candace a really sad pathetic look.

"It's nice to meet you, ma'am." His hand popped up automatically to grasp hers firmly, but not too roughly. Saliva... His lips did have to quirk at her clipped pronunciation.

The cluster of folks from the Silver Kingdom were enough to capture his attention, and Gargantuan narrowed his eyes briefly, thinking. "Excuse me, miss. Gonna go check out these fellows, see what they're up to. I'll be right back."

He stepped closer to Candice, looking over both Cee and Andrew. Olivia was given a--hopefully--reassuring smile. Weird lookin' though, all three of them. Not from around here, that was for certain. "You guys have news or somethin'?" Not a demand, just a curious question.

It was like one fox yipping to another, the sound rang as clear as bells that had Jing spinning around on the stool, drink in hand and also on his pants and the skinwalkers neck. "Sorry Nuk-tiger." he pleaded instantly and gave Sammy a wave in greeting and the boil a impish grin.

One that spoke volumes that he wasn't.

The person he was searching for finally made her appearance since the beginning and he opened his arms wide to greet her. Instead, just using one to tug at the crown of her ear. "And you, little miss, what do you think you are doing?" he half jested and began to ruffle her hair like she was the brother he always wanted.

When he really just wanted to ask if she was trying to blow everything he was working towards.

Malodore bowed solemnly when it was offered its rank. "I accept," it said, simply, watching with great curiosity as the mark was placed on its skin. It did so love needles - and the crest assigned to it was most fitting, it felt. Eloquently stated. It would care for those on the front lines and deal some damage itself - though the post hadn't been the safe, easy mark it had been hoping for, Harrison had a way with words.

Close examinations of anatomy, indeed. When it was put that way, Malodore could hardly refuse. Well, it couldn't refuse anyway, but at least it didn't feel slighted.

When all was done, it retreated to the bar, procuring another glass of sparkling water and watching the incoming strangers with veiled curiosity. They had a strange aspect to them... Interesting. The sense of renewed vigor it felt emanating from its new crest was also interesting. The power of a King was unusual indeed...

Mass had found a new friend! And no one was hitting him for it. This was all he needed as he happily cavorted with the very drunken Jerry, still flying on wings of royal blue himself. It was like a contented and colourful tiger wonderland.

Candace's eyes drifted down to the foot the girl was directing her attention to. She tripped. Right. She tsked softly and shook her head, turning to Po with a soft frown. "Will you go see if Rin or Malodore is available to check out these girls? I'll take care of them until then." She had to win them over. Something seemed...strange about their story. Why would they simply be using portals to visit when the kingdoms had just declared war on each other? It didn't fit. They were either invading or escaping. Po nodded and left to go find any of the doctors, spotting Malodore first at the bar.

It seemed they already had his attention. Good. "Doctor, those two girls seem to be injured. Could you check on them when Candace brings them over? She'll be willing to pay whatever price you ask." Not that Candace was aware of this decision but Po knew she would go along with it. Her partner new everything had its price, nothing was free.

While Po was busy with the good doctor, Candace was focused on the three visitors. "Of course. Here, I'll take you to the bar." She moved to slide an arm around the dark-skinned girl's waist, the one who had said she tripped. Clearly it was so she could use her for support as they walked. "You two are welcome to come along. A phone? Yes, Po has it." She gestured to the woman she had sent to fetch a doctor. "You can get it from her." Po knew her rules.

"Come along, ladies. You look like you could use some rest."
