"You are most certainty welcome, my friend." Blitz answered about blessings, he had been so lucky for such treatment, but he did have a raptor that took sport in embarrassing him at most times....It was all in good fun, but at times....sheeesh.
As Blitz gained a 'maybe' as to being heard, he bobbed his head in a considering way. The family name had been well, known...Though perhaps someone of the two was being rather kind.
"Perhaps, 'my mouth' tends to proceed me." The Republic shoulder showed a smile at the twisted humor-as it was what was spoken to him by a mouthy, Chivalrous Corporal before he was killed...
"Or so, I am told-by ceased lips." Blitz chuckled at the irony, picking up his glass once more for a sip. "Fully, it's Blitz, Masters." He sighed, setting it down and gave a shrug, forgetting to have addressed the first part of his name...opps.
"Good," He spoke looking back to Talon though his good eye. He was frankly tired of others, 'giving a damn about what he had done, doing or did'.
"And perhaps, She might think you are cute." The male shrugged once more, to the islander keeping a eye on everyone in the bar.
He set the glass down at the name.
"I have...." Blitz left it that, as random the question it was. He guess it was pretty obvious that he was a soldier himself-being still in his uniform. The teal eye had shifted to the door as he had been watching his raptor friend-cautiously move toward the door, and even more so timidly leave the door.
Watching the door for a moment, he couldn't help but be 'budded'-or rather concerned as the Raptor was about leaving. His thoughts became slightly distracted at it.
"...What, concerns her with you?" Masters spoke clearing his throat slightly as he let his single optical sight remain on the door.
It was unusual for Krieg to be concerned as much as he was....

A refill of water was gladly taken and Talon politely refused anything harder. He had the rest of the desert to travel before he reached where he wanted to go... Hydration was a bit more important than inebriation, as tempting as that was at this point. He found himself smirking, "I doubt that. What I've heard is all a whisper of skill and then there's this small bit about being a bit mouthy...though I don't see what they're talking about in regards to the mouthiness. It's more polite than false kindness anyways. Easier to see and guard. " He shrugged, though he took note of the key words laced between such simple sentiments. Talon smiled and nodded, "Ah.. That Masters. Then I have heard of you. You're more snarky on paper, might I say. "
Pft... Thinking he was cute? What nerve! Gall... Talon blamed the wine. It was a good retort though. A sip from the cold water was again taken just for the sake of having it in his system. And the slightly, openly guarded answer put some ill-ease away--at least any ill feeling Talon had. It looked like the innocent question brought some anxiety for the other, to whom Talon gave a very apologetic frown."I've been reading of bad news and luck lately... She is a friend of mine. "
Running a free hand through the back of his head of blonde hair, Talon raised an eyebrow and studied this one eyed solider carefully. "A lot of horrid things have been happening. I remember...vaguely...reading in a paper about heroism. Last I spoke with her, she was a bit spooked by something, is all. " His voice had been slowly dropping in volume. It was a sobering topic, and the spider could sense the not happiness of it. "Solaris is a good person... "
It clicked and clacked a bit and skittered around the table again for something or other. Maybe go all flaming on them and attack something... Yeah! That always was fun! Talon watched the spider wearily, then a distraction hit him, "Ah? Where is your dashing dino by the way? I was hoping for a game of Hearts or the like. "

She saw it but couldn't believe it for a moment, even when the barter said it, where did the sudden stoke of luck come from, someone still liked her it seemed, or perhaps someone didn't, If she looked at it the other way... Regardless this is what it was, be it for good or bad. Though she held her surprise in check, no good would come from loosing her head.
She gave risk a look of thanks, looks like the extra luck did help at least some. she watched the two for a moment before answering, Regent and Risk seemed to know well enough each others boundaries "we shall see," was all she said for a time, she knew which questions she wanted to ask, but... "I have a feeling I'll be heading right into hells mouth." and she would, even after all that happened she wasn't going to let the rogue leader fight by himself.
At least she would good information this time "Where is Ander? If anyone has had contact or herd of with him it would be you two by my guess, " she pointed to regent and risk. Risk included considering she was holding out on her own little information, but she let that slide a bit, she would find out latter perhaps...

A Proud smile couldn't help but slip across the poet's lips at the recantation given. Even if it wasn't wholly 'good', he was still 'known' of-A artist couldn't help but enjoy the prestige of being known for something of theirs. (achievement unlocked)
"Well, admittedly." Blitz turned his hand on his goblet to point a finger at Talon, his single gazed squinted as he poked the air at him-gesturing to him. "I like you, friend." He grinned before looking to the door once more and the crystal dine-wear hovered closer to his mouth once more.
He paused. The chilly teal eye relaxed to line with his dark brow, giving a more dull expression on his face. "That, and you seem far to 'Intellectual', for me to pray on any stupidity." Blitz spoke, a smile removed from his lips. Talk about a lack of 'sport'. Intelligence always seemed to ruin his fun. He shrugged before taking another sip of his wet wine.
Oh well.
Swallowing, Blitz let the icy single gaze look back to Talon. Glass rested on the table at the mention of 'horrid'....'things'.
Carefully Masters studied the gentleman across from him. He would like to say that he knew for sure that Solaris wasn't at the event-but frankly, he didn't know....
He had his own show of luck that day...it started with a bump and a walking dead man.
"I don't doubt that, Sir..." Blitz answered on what kind of person Angelina was-after all he had a chance to talk to her briefly at this vary bar. Though, he wasn't about to share that. Just yet. After all, the meeting wasn't at great importance...(seemingly).
"I was a bit 'preoccupied', myself to know for sure, what had happened with her-I know she was there, at that-and not one of the 'deceased'." The Male sighed as his hand raised, rubbing his patched temple slightly. God, that day was filled with embarrassment....Oh and the killer being there was a pretty big thing as well. and others dying...that too...somewhere on the list, but only under the embarrassment he had suffered. That would never heal....
"if that would help, your troubles friend..." Blitz offered tilting his head to Talon, he let his words grow a little bit softer only in presentation to his own.
"As it's all I have to give you." Mischief shrugged.
"He should be with Squall, and back soon." The Soldier sighed, his gaze moved and lingered on the door once more. Giving The spider keeper a agreeing nod.
"If, he hadn't been interrupted..."

"Rightly said, Lovely." Regent spoke as he gave a grin watching Risk kiss the dice with her gentle breath.
The hand that had handed over the dice, slipped to his chin where he habitually pulled at the braid's tip. His orange gaze watched Risk, as she looked up to him kissing his hand. Finger tips on her shoulder gently drummed from pinky to pointer lightly as he saw the warning of her curious and fetching gaze.
Oh, he knew better.
Looking to Marcia and her cast Die, his head turned back to her and his lips parted in a smile.
"Then you must also pay the ferry man." Regent winked to the idea. He being the ferry man to the way into hell's mouth, as she put.
"well...A exact location, would be nice-wouldn't it." The merchent spoke, letting out a breath as he leaned all the more back in his chair, his elbow and forearm he let rest down Risk's own as he was made to be closer with her.
His finger tips still toyed with his beard.
"Oh, and many have been in contact with him. A King has meany as 'servants' as vast as his 'kingdom'. And, my dear, there are a lot of bandits that roam these sands. " Regent spoke, his hand moving from the beard, he gestured largely in the air as if to show the vastness of the 'sands'.
"And as for we? No...." The salesmen spoke turning his head to look back at Risk, taking a moment in her eyes. " I have been far too consumed, with other affairs." His smile broadened widely, as his hand shifted from the air to move the said hand to touch Risk's left cheek and run his fingers along her braids. His own golden orange eyes, deeply watched her own, for just a moment.
As he did have a 'audience', he didn't linger too long before he turned his head to look back at Marcia. A soft smile rested on his lips.

Risk's own lips formed an amused smile at the chosen inquiry. That man, Ander, was a tough one to follow. One could hardly read what was on that man's mind. Still, despite her high roll, Marcia was rolling for information from Regent and Risk was less inclined to share with her what she knew of the man, nor was she willing to offer up a possible chance at that information.
Her mind pulled away from the thought as Regent tapped at her shoulder than leaned his arm along her's. Risk only watched the movement from a side glance, giving her full attention to the bar and its inhabitants. At least, for a moment. As he gently stroked her cheek she leaned a bit into his touch as her eyes closed very briefly.
"You make it hard to keep watch on deh room Meh sir." She cooed softly as her golden eyes opened and returned the look into Regent's own bright eyes. "Dun make meh take ya by deh ears..."
Had he not pulled away to attend to the company she would have leaned her head more closely to his. She had without realizing it already leaned slightly closer to him.
*hmn* She quietly cleared her throat before returning her gaze to Marcia and the rest of the bar.

He had to snicker at being called intelligent. That was a debate up for the peanut gallery. All the stuff he got himself into was against all intelligence he ever had. Then again, "Intelligent? Maybe. Now if I ever use that intelligence is up for debate. A number on paper doesn't make me wise. And paper burns rather nicely on cold nights. "
It took great effort not to visibly tilt his head to the side in a more quizical manner. Obviously something had happened that affected this one seated nearby, that much Talon was certain of. It also meant that those horrible, nasty, awful, sickening rumors were true to some extent. Silence fell around him, and for a moment his gaze was to the water in the glass. He then shrugged and pretended he hadn't noticed the reaction he got out of the other.
"I see. I had no interest of bothering you with the question. I am sorry about that. " A smile quirked and the spider's keeper gave a small snort. "It wasn't my place to pry." Prying got people killed quicker. Prying got spikes to the head from the ceiling, or electrocution, or unknown MRZ's clung to you. Oh and the whole almost dying thing.
Too, his gaze fell towards the currently popular back door. " You must have hid that deck of cards well, then. "

"I guess it may be left up to contest." Blitz answered watchfully to Talon, His finger tips move once more to pick up his crystal ware carefully. Studding it with a careful, steely eye. His wrist pivoted slightly to swish the liquid. "Remember, you said it. Not, I." Mischief manged as he drew the cup once more to his lips. In a swift movement he down the rest of his glass.
Customarily, sips where more suggested of a wine (brought out the flavor, a bit more), but the Patched man seemed to be in a uncared hurry to be a less bit sober.
"No bother, sir." Blitz reassured him, as lips pierced at the taste of wine and his empty glass was once more set on table. HIs lone gaze seemed to studied the wood work just a bit. Admiring the curves and warped gran of age. "Just at the time the cold welcoming stone of the floor just seemed to a bit more fetching sight." The male stopped...
"Aside from one other..." Blitz then mumbled, as his single eye slipped off to the side.
Damn his mouth, and taste for wine. It betrayed him, a paused moment and he blessed whatever Ancient was worshiped that Kreig had not heard it.
"Pry, if you may or not." Master cleared his throat and looked back full to talon, his gaze laxed normal over his cold eye. "I was a bit incapacitated at the time. I do not know, what had become of her. " He finalized, and toasted with a shrug.
"I like to make a game of things, at times." Blitz covered over worry with a jest, He didn't want to admit that it was a bit strange for Kreig to have reacted as he did to that man that just only left before him.

He smiled and laughed softly to himself. Yet he took no comfort in the sudden gusto the tablemate was touching the wine. Perhaps he shouldn't have brought the present heady subject up... but it did teach him something of the mirrored surface beneath the skin. He regarded the other carefully, and absently reached out to brush the spider from drawing near the man. Angry clicks were ignored pointedly which brought a huff and a pout from the mechanical arachnid.
Talon had brought up an unwanted reminder of something, and he internally winced and withdrew from that delicate subject--however tantalizing it may have been to touch, it wasn't his place to. Not now anyways. Nor ever would be, he found himself musing as another sip of the chilling water was had. He let the wave of cold fall down his throat before he dared another sentence. "I do understand. And I'll assume the best lest imagination kills all hope of it. " Talon felt a cold chill up his spine and suddenly wished he had something a bit more toxic to consume than this silly water.
He felt a smile tug at his lips despite the grave scraping topic. There was also a small haze of concern Talon could read from this other person. He let his gaze wander to those doors used so recently, "Games are only fun if you're the only one with the rules. " Fingers began to drum once, twice, then ceased as his mind span... Just something about that other person bothered him. That stench was rank, but he couldn't place his finger on the oddity. "Though hiding a deck of cards so well seems a bit excessive..."
The spider clicked and clacked then slowly moved across the table, tugging with its little forearms for Talon's attention before a very elaborate dance routine. In what could probably mean the spider wanted to go and do some recon, it wiggled its little abdomen and settled back onto the tabletop with a mechanical sigh, large eyes staring up between Talon and Blitz expectantly. It continued to stare, not moving, until it shuddered with what could seem to be anticipation. "Well, since I guess I'm translating whatever the hell that was, Tacker voluntered to go look for your delightful friend and help in this search for those missing cards. " The spider didn't move, which brought a weary if not rather cold glare from Talon to stir, "And it likes you. For whatever reason. . . lucky you. "

Hearing Risk softly clear her throat, She couldn't help but lure his gaze once more.
"Well..." Regent mused and his pointer's finger tip had moved to his own lips, where he tapped at a teasing thought as he waited upon a response. And well his Islander woman, had to be workin' her mojo.
"That is the idea." The merchant spoke as he turned his head back to her lean, where he roguishly stole a kiss on her cheek and the corner of her lips.
"All eyes on me, Love." He grinned as he aimed at slowly leaning back, before he took his hand and let it rest on the table. Smiling, quite pleased with himself, he leaned back in the chair, and watched out of the corner of his eye to see his bodyguard's reaction.
It was a kind payback for the little n** on his finger tips.

Blitz let his ungloved hand move to the corner of his mini stack of books. Gently he pursued the edges with his palm, as he nodded to Talon's words, letting him know he was fallowing along.
The trilling of the pages stopped.
"But I do, enjoy a good game." Blitz spoke with a tilt of his head to Talon, his orb of a teal eye slipped to the corner of his eye. "Even if the odds are not in my favor. I just assume that is fate's payback." He added, then a chuckle left his mouth.
"And let me tell ya, it's a b***h." Mischief smiled, as those little 'paybacks' as it were-did keep things a bit 'interesting'. The kind of 'interesting' a teacher tells a student, when they can't say otherwise. Such as, 'you suck at life, go die.', 'stop trying, it looks like s**t.' or a favorite. "just let natural selection take it's course, there is a nearby cliff-go try and fly.' XD.
"And like I said, 'payback is a b***h'." Blitz then repeated. As for what payback, Kreig could have possibly gain? Well now, he rather not say....
As the Spider once again moved closer to Blitz, and then manged to get from it's Partner. A teal chilled eye looked to it, as his lips slipped to a amused lazy smile. His hand had shifted to prop his chin, while his elbow rested on the table.
"He is quite, interesting...." Masters' smile only grew. He liked the little guy, and as with the pay of words, he had thought it 'sport' and 'timely' to use.
"My 'luck' does tend to have it's rewards still..." Blitz answered and then moved his free hand,(not the one that propped his chin,) out toward the spider. He breathed a chuckle, as he did take to the mechanical beings a bit more easily, but it's human friend wasn't so bad as well....

Risk's eyes widened at the theft of a kiss on her cheek. The hue of her cheeks and nose darkened in color to match the warmth she felt in the wake of it. Touche' merchant man, touche'.
Her left hand moved atop one of Regent's left and gave it a tender squeeze before she begun to rub the top of his matching ring with her own ring finger. "Dehy are meh Sir, all deh time." She assured him before leaning her lips close to his ear and adding in a gentle whisper. "So beh careful of what you do, or I will act accorin'ly"
The threat was sealed with a kiss just above the jaw and below the earlobe, than assured with a promising smile as she leaned away just a little from him and back in her seat. Her left hand remained atop his very possessively while she returned to her 'job'.

Marcia didn't think risk was inclined to share but didn't hurt to try, she watched Regent as he spoke, it brought a grin to her face.
"aah Charon only asked for a single coin, I expect you want a little more than that..." she knew the old legends as well. The show of affection didn't bother the woman Marcia herself had no comment on their intimacy, she herself had done such things more than once to get information, some men were disgusting truly, but gave her an advantage every so often.
"An exact location would be quite nice, but I expect you'd like some more incentive to share" she shifted placing her hands on her lap giving a sly smile. Marcia didn't doubt Regents next words
"Ahem," Marcia cleared her throat politely, trying to get Regents attention, they weren't done with business quite yet, she was sure Regent and Risk would have the time for that latter.

Regent couldn't help but smile all the more as he watched Risk out of the corner of his golden gaze. Feeling her hand on his own, carefully caressing his ring and finger his lips parted in a golden tooth smile as her words fluttered agenst ear. Only to cusendo to a soft peck. Turning his head to Risk, he was about to answer for more, only to hear Marcia's call back to Zi and the conversation they where having.
"Ah, Charon. I am glad you understand the refrance." Regent spoke as he cleared his throat. His lips relaxed in his smile.
"You see friend...."The merchent straightened in his chair a bit. " I would be fancy to tell you, but" he continued with a little shrug of his right free hand. "I simply done have a answer for you." Regent kindly let her know.
"Last I head he is the old, now new Bandit King." He gave her what he had to tell. "And as to the old king its the devil to pay if he catches you asking around about 'em" Regent added with a more grimace of a look that lacked a smile.

Risk had leaned closer to Regent when the two were called back to the real world. Right, he was still conducting businesses. A soft breath passed her lips as she returned to visually patrolling the bar, especially the one with the mechanical spider and the poet. Where had his friend gotten to? How curious...
The information given to Marcia caused her head to turn as her golden eyes glanced at Regent than to Marcia. Her frame noteably tensed.
"Last I hear, dat man gone crazy..." Risk huffed, finally adding her own input to the mix. That bit Marcia got for free. "Lost dat wise min'e of his ta deh abyss."
Her hand tightened just a little bit on Regent's before she continued to stroke the golden band on his finger again. It seemed to be a calming habbit the islander. This could be noted by her tenseness begenning to fade.
