The man that caused the whole thing gave a nod to Riot not finding his words to speak, and he moved off.
Riot shook his head to himself and let out a sigh, he moved a hand to the table he was by grabbing a bottle. Mentally shruging Riot rose the bottle to his lips as he looked off to the distance at the scene Ander had ran off to.
He couldn't really tell what was going on, but it was obvious no fight had broken out. The bottle fell from his lips, and he let it rest at his side as he started to proll around the camp a little. Not really doing anything, but more or less waiting for Ander to come back with news of what happened...
He still kept a close on the plain pass the laughter and people, towards the Ziods incase somethign was to happen

Ander took another cautious step forward. "He cannot fit in the camp. He would break a lot of tents and no doubt step on a few people."
His hands remained at his sides where the boy could see them. Mainly so that he could see there was nothing in his hands and that there was nothing Quin was trying to pull. "if you let me come over there I can show you how to get him to stop." Or at least try. Quin thought as he held the gaze with the ZOID and its boy.

Hugo slowly ran his finger along the flat of his knife, chewing on his lip. He didn't completely trust these men, but he was hungry...
"Well...? What do you think?" He glanced up, eyes meeting with Fubar's....assumed eyes.
The gryphon turned his head, tipped it from one side to the other, considering. After a moment, it lifted his claws and slowly gave the boy a nudge forward.
"...alright. You keep an eye out." He waited long enough for the zoid to offer a short nod. Reassured, Hugo returned the kitchen knife to his side and slowly stepped his way through the sand towards the camp. The night air tugged at his black-tipped hair, whisping it across his face and over his eyes. Exhaustion coated his features and weighed his step. Still, his eyes blazed silently. An unspoken warning against any deception on the stranger's part.

Ander gave the ZOID an assuring nod. A subtle promise that he would watch the boy in the ZOID's place. Or at least until Riot got to show him the ropes. That would be up to Riot... Ander met up with the boy a quarter of the way. It at least gave the boy time to adjust to not being in his safe zone any more. "What is your name kid?" He asked as he moved to the side of the boy, careful to keep somewhat of a distance.

Hugo glanced over the man as he approached, alert and wary as a buck. The man seemed harmless enough. For the moment. He regarded the man with a short nod and joined his side for the walk back into the camp.
"It's Hugo." He answered simply. Last names weren't something that had been in his culture. Everyone had a name, their name.
He glanced up shortly, eyebrows raising, "Yours?"

"Ander or Quin, You can call me either." He shrugged. His middle name had caught on around the camp and had been addressed by both names.
Ander made his way back into the camp, but found it harder to get through the crowds as he had to make sure they were enough apart Hugo could get though comfortably. His goal was the main tent, Riot's tent. As they made their way there he signaled to Riot with a subtle head gesture. The one that signaled he should meet them in the tent asap.
"That ZOID is really attached to you, might work better if you rode inside the cockpit though." He looked down at Hugo an chuckled. "Had us scared you were being chased."

Not expecting anyone to approach, let alone throw their arm around his shoulder, Blade jumped a bit as that happened. For a split second, he thought he was being attacked, and nearly went to elbow the other rogue in the face. However, he managed to restrain himself when he realized that this wasn't quite the case.
The scent of alchohol was strong in the man's breath. Between that, the bottle, and the slurred words that came out of the guy, he figured that he was pretty drunk. Not exactly something out of the ordinary here.
"Uh... hey," he started, still feeling the after effects of being caught off guard. Blade wasn't entirely certain if he should go ahead and say what he was looking at, seeing how the other Rogue might not be able to comprehend much in his current drunken state.
"I thought I saw something out there, that's all. Though... you might want to ease up on the booze a little there."
That said, he carefully tried to move out from under the other man's arm, hoping he wouldn't end up knocking the guy over in the process.

Riot full attention turned to Ander as he had been keeping a eye out for his friend. His head turned to the two, he moved the cig from his lip flicked the ask from it as he saw the motion. Knowing what it meant from his rogue brother, Riot casually stuck out his tongue a little and tapped the end of the cig out just at the tip of his tongue..what? no ashtray.
Quickly checking out the camp, he turned his head back to the tent to see if anyone else had taken interest in the sigh...unwanted listeners where such a bother if it was something serious.
Riot's long casual stride moved over to the tent and chair Quin had once sat at. His hand pulled back the flap as he other moved the cig to the bridge of he ear for holding. His darken gaze, only noticeably blue by the glow of the fire watched for the two; waiting for them to enter.

The drunk didn't notice any movement by Blade. He made a laugh not knowing what to say to the words as he didn't really understand them in his state. THough the word 'booze' did stand out to him, alright.
"Booze!?" The drunk let out raising his head with interest, seemingly forgetting he already had some in his hand. He wobbled a little as he found himself on his own feet, not really noticing Blade had moved from his arm as it suddenly dropped.
He was distracted by the strange sudden motion of his arm swinging and hitting at his side for no reason-currently known to him. It caused him to pause and looked at it, with a overly craned head. His chin to his chest.
"huh." He dropped his arm and looked at it and repeated the motion. He Raised his arm and then let it freely drop to his side. Oh! then he remembered the other guy said something about booze!
"Booze, I like boooooze..." He spoke looking back up to Blade not noticing if the man had cared to walk away or not.

Watching the guy, Blade rubbed the back of his neck as he tried to figure out what he should do. A part of him wanted to get the man more booze, let him pass out, and take his wallet and such. The other part of him wanted to leave him to his own devices. And the last part wanted to try and sober him up so that others don't try what his first urge was.
Seeing how he didn't really want to cause trouble in the presence of the Bandit King (especially if this guy happened to be one of Riot's underling, he dropped the first idea eventually.
With a sigh, he went and fetched a glass of water, before returning to the Rogue. The thief hesitated, not really thinking this would work, but it couldn't hurt in any case.
So he went ahead and dumped said glass onto the drunken man to see if that would snap him out of it.

There they went again with the multiple names. Hugo shook his head shortly. He'd never quite understand it- what's more is this time, he was allowed to pick which of the names he wanted to address the man by. "Ander." He nodded, settling on the first name that the man had given.
His posture tightened as they entered the main camp. Once more, the boy's eyes darted from one individual to the other. The smell of alcohol filled the air along with the heavy smoke- both from the bonfire and the cigs.
"I did once... I hurt my arm." He frowned, "And I don't know what to do. I've never had to before...where I come from, you ride on the back of the beast, not inside of it."

Just as she and Catastrophe were passing though A large Zoid caught her attention A gryphon at that. Intrigued Marcia moved Catastrophe forward at a fair walking pace. There seemed also to be a camp nearby, And from the looks of it a party. Marcia chuckled. It looked as though the Gryphon Zoid was following the boy since it certainly didn't look like it was hostile.
Another zoid seemed to be approaching it from about half a mile away. There was a blip on Catastrophe's Radar, Marcia glanced down looking at the Radar.
Catastrophe roared and lurched forward.
Marcia looked up regaining control as the blip on the radar disappeared. "It seems I missed what you saw." Marcia glanced over to the lit camp. "You do know there are people over there right?" Marcia scolded that's all she needed for the camp to think there was another hostile zoid nearby.

The drunk man looked up with a pondering gaze as he felt the water spill over his head. He looked around and up at the blurred sky, his hand and plum to the sky.
"hmm, rain?" He spoke and looked around. oh no! the party was going to get soaked! "He threw his arms and turned around to 'warn' everyone.
"It's raining!" He yelled out to the random crowd, leaving Blade to stand there. "Rain guys!"

"hm, We will just have to teach you than. You got one and should know how to use it." Quin watched as Riot went into the tent first. What a better place is there to learn how to pilot a ZOID? He paused in front of Riot than looked back to Hugo. "Just be yourself. He usually puts on a good act, but is not really all that bad."
He gave Riot a mischievous side glance. "Isn't right Riot?"

Riot tilted his head up as the two approached him, he eyes scanned the other and he gaze fell back to Ander.
"Bullshit." Riot spoke raising a eyebrow at Ander's glance., keeping a straight serious face "He's lying to ya kid." The bandit spoke folding his arm, he soon cracked a smirk, showing that he wasn't totally serious-but you never know.
