He had been walking along when he heard a familiar voice. It can't be. He started walking towards the sound as a crowd formed. He pushed about halfway through the crowd to get a better view. It was actually him. The guy he had been looking for for over three months and here he was doing a juggling act. How could he have missed him. Slowly he took his crossbow from his side and raised it. He pulled the trigger three times and watched as he hit each of the red balls which nailed into the wall behind him. He smiled put his crossbow back on his side and started walking forward.

Though he was slightly upset at his new toys being ruined, the fact that he only knew one marksman that good, more than made up for it.
He began to toss each of the 23 other items back to their original owners when he was done, he made a dramatic backflip from the slightly elevated area he was performing on, landing directly in front of the man who had shot the bolts, "Well if it ain't ol' Hawkeye Greg!" Pix exclaimed clapping the other man on the back.

He was about to say his name was Gregor, but he thought otherwise. He was here to ask a favor. "I've been looking for you for over three months! You're a pain in the a** to find." He laughed. "I don't know how I could have missed you though." He said looking at his clothes. "Especially in that git up. You look like you're supposed to be a jester for a king, but that's not what I'm here for, I have a favor to ask." He watched Pix hoping he would be drawn in by the last part. Pix had always loved bargaining a deal. "How about we head somewhere a little more private though." He said looking at the crowd still gathered around them seeming to think this was still part of the show and pointing to a small bar only a few yards away. "Drinks are on me." He said knowing that he would probably regret this last part, but it was the only way he could think of to make sure Pix decided to go with him.

He laughed out loud, it was different.
How long has it been since I laughed like this?
He was still grinning like a fool, and the crowd around him seemed to be listening intently on the conversation, "Well, you know me I just love to be the center of attention," He motioned to the crowd ," a drink sounds mighty fine though, women are on me though." With that he winked at some of the girls who had been watcihng him, extracting a fair amount of giggles.

He choose a table in the back corner trying to avoid unwanted attention. He ordered a couple of drinks for them and glanced around before turning to pix. "Ok, I'm guessing you've already noticed this," he said picking up his crossbow and setting on the table, "which means that you've definitely noticed this." He raised the sleeve over his left arm showing Pix his arm. He put his left arm unsleeved on the table where it sat at an akward angle. "This is the reason I've been looking for you and this is the reason I need to ask a favor." Their drinks arrived and he ignored his waiting for Pix's response.

One of the girls Pix had brought along, a pretty red haired one, gasped as Gregor revealed his arm, Pix had already guessed as much, but women will be women, "Oh my, you poor man! What you need is a woman, not shady deals," she said in a soothing tone as she wrapped her hands around Gregor.
Pix Laughed as he knocked back the drink, calling for another.
"Very nice collection of wounds you've amassed, but as I've seen it hasn't hampered your aim, I'll bite. What do you want?" The other woman already in Pix's lap, it was a miracle he was coherent enough to listen to Greg.

Gregor already had enough of the "company" Pix had invited along. He moved his crossbow a inches as it layed on the table and pulled the trigger. The bolt pierced the table right next to her arm. Maybe that will help get rid of them. He thought this already knowing that Pix's company never seemed to leave so easily. He pushed his drink over to Pix. "I want to join the Harlequins." He said knowing that this would probably get Pix serious enough to make a deal.

Gregor's eyes flashed. "I know you and I knew that no matter what happened the Harlequins wouldn't be dead forever, that's why I started searching for you over three months ago. Even then I knew you would start anew, but the reason I declined before was because I thought I was strong enough to stand alone. I'm not a broken man, at least not yet, I'm just a sane one. All this did," he raised his left arm slightly, "was make me realize no matter how good I am I can't survive on my own forever." After saying this he took the first swig he had of his drink since finding Pix. "Now good friend let's celebrate to beginning anew." He raised his drink and then finished it off.

He raised his glass, "To old friends and old memories!" he knocked back his drink ,"Now, as a wise man once said, 'Let's get s**t-faced drunk' " taking the next glass on the table with a roguish grin.
An hour later Pix and Gregor were both laughing, drunk and causing quite a ruckus at the small pub, in response to their latest topic Pix exclaimed, "******** that! I don't want to die in n-no ******** blaze of...Of Glory! That's it! I wanna die in old age of a stroke, lying in a hammock and being blown by a 16 year old redhead named Tracy!" He said in a very serious tone, well, as serious as any drunk can sound as Greg just sat across from turning red from the laughter. A small voice in his head told him he should get back to the castle, but Pix had long since stopped listening to the voices in his head.

((I want to do something with Fruit Cup, but since there's no way Pix is up to ANYTHING right now, we're gonna roleplay the events of the night before after Pix finished talking to Tanner))
He was in a fair mood after Tanner had given in and the first thought to cross his mind as he left was to find that girl, a bit of searching found her in the kitchens, doing some housework before bed, Pix made his way till he was right behind her,"Catriona.."
