Melliandra will do. *she replies, taking another sip. She wanders back around the bar, scanning the room*
*her eyes fall on the Jaguar, and her eyebrows go up. She starts toward it, setting her glass down on a table as she passes, and starts to inspect the vehicle, tapping at the windows* ... Strange contraption, this . . .

Janani grows tired of Melliandra. She hasn't responded to a perfectly logical question! At least, it was in her mind. She puts her glass down, in a rather rough fashion, but it doesn't shatter. She steps around the bar, quietly bows to Cross, and heads towards the key rack. Not knowing she can use her key to return to her time whenever she wants, Janani makes a beeline to the guest quarters. She's barely even paying attention...and runs straight into Cora... Janani isn't jarred, but she is blinking in befuddled confusion. Where she is, she has the distinct feeling that somebody might see her, but Cora would be out of sight...

:::Cora senses this and pulls the giant woman, who hadn't quite managed to knock her down. Cora was a strong girl, after all. They would be out of site. She motioned to Janani to follow her, and Cora progressed quickly down the hall:::

Janani blinks, still confused, but she follows.

*cross smiles swaggering to the bar to retreive his customary bottle of spivced rum* Melliandra.... that's a fair and pretty name I'd say.. got a bit of a refined ring to'er... *he eyes her as she moves to the great green coach* Ye wouldn' happen t'be nobility would ye? *he asks... he eyes Janani and is about to make a comment as he uncaps his bottle and takes a deep pull, but when he lowers the bottle he notes that she is already gone* Oh well, I gess its just you and me, M'lady. *cross says completely ignoring the fact that Bard is still in the room.*

*Bard follows Melliandra over to his car, sipping his wine* It's a very broken contraption at the moment....

:::When Cora felt they were out of ear shot, she stopped and looked up at Janani, and spoke hushedly:::
It's alright now. I'm sorry if I startled you, but I did not want to be discovered. Are you going to your room now? Oh goodness...I'm sorry, I have to return to watch them. Please excuse me.
:::and just as quickly as she'd addressed Janani, Cora turned and began swiftly, and silent as a fox for the main room entrance again:::

*Mel glances at Cross over the top of the car and smiles slowly* Not quite.
*she resumes inspecting the car, fiddling with one of the mirrors, glancing up as Bard joins them* Is it? What does it do, precisely? When it isn't broken, that is.

Co...
Before Janani can finish, Cora's moved on. Blinking, she wonders if she should continue to her room. She sneaks right on behind Cora, figuring something must be going on. What is she spying on? Janani whispes, as quietly as she can, to speak to her.
Is something the matter, Miss Cora?

:::Cora stops and turns when she hears the woman follow her. Whispering to her, in a slightly hurried fashion so that she can get back to her post:::
I don't want to disturb anyone, I just want to keep watch over them. If you want to follow, please don't speak or create any noise after this point, or we'll be discovered.
:::She nodded as though to say 'ok?' and kept moving:::

Well, it's an automobile... *Bard begins, and he realizes that will mean nothing to her* They used to call it a horseless carriage. it's a form of self-propelled transportation.

*Cross moves over to a table then grimaces at the lady's apparent disinterest in him over the exceedingly tall man... Cross sits down at a table and takes a pull of rum... oh well, her loss. he maintains a pleasent expression on his face as he pulls a map out of his vestment. they were on a decent course , targeting some french traders in the area.... would prove interesting once they caught up, but for now a drop of the creature and some relaxation sounded mighty fine to him*

Janani nods in agreement, and she remains silent. She follows after Cora, amazingly stealthy for her size. Instead of looking around to spy as well, she leans her back against the wall and watches Cora, herself. Janani has a few questions in mind. Namely, has Cora figured out that that guy from the other night is Tacitus? Who is Jordan? She has questions, but they won't be answered.

:::Cora got back to the point, just about 10 feet from the opening, and sat finally...listening to the chatter:::
