Raven just looked at Ashe in shock for a moment. "Uh...yes...fine...thanks." She confusedly turned around looking back up at the window. She had a rather perplexed look on her face as she just stood there not moving an inch.

Ashe cocked her head. She was uneasy about leaving the girl by herself just yet. She seemed as if she was still in shock. "You fell from the window, if that's what your trying to figure out," she said, trying to guess the other's thoughts.

Raven looked back at Ashe. She starred for a moment. "Yes...yes...I know. Just not like me..." She didn't know what else to say. Onyx had now jumped to a tree outside the window and climbed down it. He rubbed against Raven's leg to make sure she was ok.

Ashe raised an eyebrow. "Don't think anyone would fall out of a window on purpose." She then noticed the cat. "Yours?"

Raven tried not to smile at Ashe's comment. "Ahem, yes the cat is mine." Onyx meow and pawed at Raven's leg. "Oh I am sorry. His name is Onyx."

[[Okay, from what I gather, you're all in a town, residing in an inn and there are people playing music]]
Nixe swept her long hair behind on pointed ear and blinked. Her eyes were half-lidded with utter boredom and she held a decorated silver staff at her side. She licked her lips and let out a light sigh, sweeping into the town in a swish of skirts and chainmail.
She walked with an air of regality and confidence, not caring if nobody paid attention to her. As she walked, her eyes straight ahead, she tapped the glass jar at her waist, and was replied to with a small sound between a purr and a twinkle. Isk was probably the only thing she had to a traveling companion, and she intended to keep it that way. Still, she took good care of Isk, placing him near light when she slept and holding him when they traveled. He was an undemanding thing, she just had to ensure that he never escaped from his glass prison.
Her thoughts were still on the creature when she walked past a strange pair, a woman with hair the same colour as hers, cropped short into a pixie cut, and a woman in unusual attire and a black cat. She spared them a glance but then noticed they weren't of her kind. She looked away, still bored. Past them there was inn, which didn't look too shabby. She walked in, her boots making a clip-clop along the wooden floorboards. She reached a hand into one of her many pouches, counting the small gems she had, as well as the various coins in yet another pouch. Many, if she ran low she could always send a letter to her family asking for more, or better, put on a demonstration. People these days always liked watching sorcery.
She walked up to the innkeeper, and without a word, placed two silver coins on his desk. It should have been more then enough to get a single room. He looked at the coins and sighed
"None left, rich maiden." He told her, pushing back the coins. Nixe didn't respond to that, and pushed the coins back to him. "Absolutely none. Last guy here had to go beg for a double." The innkeeper pushed the coins back one more time, finality on his face.
"Any other inns?" She asked him, he shook his head and mouthed 'Shabby' to her. Isk made a quiet whining noise and she flicked the jar. "Very well." She pushed the coins back plus a few gold and this time he accepted. She was doing what Tengi was. She started up the steps, poor Nixie had to go beg. The woman scoffed, Elves didn't beg. She would command, or manipulate, whichever came first.
As she came up the stairs she saw the body of the man the innkeeper must have been talking about, he was knocking on a door. She could hear very faint music coming from the other side. Idly, Nixe wondered who the person occupying the other double was. She knocked on the door parallel to the one he was intent on claiming.
[[And there is my long ___ introductory post that tells you next to nothing about me =D ]]

[I'm desperate for a post right now, so I'm just gunna be one of the first to meet Nixe ^^]
-----
Flint continued to play quietly. Once he was able to get back up to his old speed again, he placed the instrument on his bed, and headed out onto the balcony.
He leaned his diminutive figure on the railing, staring off into the distance at the castle they would soon be sneaking into. It felt like madness, but strangely, being the thief he used to be, he didn't care much at all.
He'd already broken into some high security areas...nothing like a castle though. More like a guards barracks...
He heard a knocking on his door. Flint looked up, and turned his head. He hadn't expected anyone. He thought Ashe was still out, and chances are for all he knew Mike and Sorrow where in one of each other's rooms.
"Gimme a minute!" he said loudly, walking from the balcony to the door. He pulled it open, and customarily looked up.
"Hey-" he stopped short. He had never seen the woman before, and she appeared to be an elf. She was really good looking, too.
"Um, hi?" he said. "What can I do for you?" he asked.

Ashe had watched as a strange elf past her and the other. She shook her head and looked back at the girl and cat. "I'm glad your ok. Just try not to take up flying from windows again." She walked back into the inn and up towards her room. She then noticed a boy hanging around outside Sorrow's room and the elf from earlier at Flint's door. Her room was on the other side of the hall from Flint, so she had to pass the other's. She heard Sorrow and what must be Mike playing together. That'll make the disguise so much more believable, she thought with a smile. She reached her room, but curiosity made her lean against the frame and watch as Flint and the elf talk.

Djers Haschen could not sleep. As much as he claimed to dislike folk music, he could not escape the nostalgia that the sweet melodies caused. He arose from his bed in (what still seemed to be) the evening, dressed in his old clothes, and exited his room without waking Lido.
He noticed the elven girl and the boy loitering outside another inn room.
"Hrm..." Djers was somewhat awkward at starting conversations and commanding attention from a group. Nonetheless, he figured he'd make small talk until the music stopped. "Are you two here for the music as well?"

Nixe let an easy smile slip onto her face as the door opened and revealed a Dwarf almost half her height. This would be easy. "Why hello, I just arrived in town and I couldn't find any other place to stay. Could I possibly seek shelter in this room for the night? I won't be any bother." the girl said neatly, her tone light and none-threatening. She might have added something more if another, taller Dwarf hadn't come down the hallway. So many these days. He mentioned the music, her ears twitched lightly as she actually listened. It was a very peaceful tune, indeed. She wondered what souls could have made it. Replying after a short pause, she said "The music is very sweet, but I'm here more for a bed to sleep in." She said, glancing at stockier Dwarf. At her waist, Isk made a small twinkling noise, twisting to the music. She ignored him.

[And now I feel stupid for accidentally reading them wrong. Disregard this xD]
-----
Flint looked up at the elf. It was fairly unexpected to have anyone knock at his door, especially a good looking female, of any race.
"I guess." Flint said, looking around the room. He hadn't noticed that there was two beds, but likely because he didn't spend much time in the room.
He heard a voice past the elf, and leaned to the side. Djers was standing in the hallway.
"Hey, dwarf, I'm here with the others you met." he said casually, then looked at the elf.
"Aren't there any rooms left?" he asked.

"I would say yes, but my wolf requires the second bed in my room. I'm sorry, miss, bu-"
He looked over at Flint, who had just emerged from his room. Djers practically cut off his train of thought.
"Oh, Flint, there you are. Does your room have an extra bed for this young elf here?"
((*wink*))

[Yeah, sorry bout that, if you caught the original message. I came back exhausted from hauling sets for 3 hours, so I wasn't paying much attention.]
-----
Flint looked a little nervous. Not that he had anything to hide, quite the contrary...he was wondering if he should accept, or send her elsewhere.
He looked past the elf again at Djers.
"Yeah, I do." he said truthfully, then looked back up at the elf.
"I guess there are no rooms left and you have no choice but to bunk up with someone." he said casually, not showing his thoughts at all.

Ashe shook her head at Djers' question. "Yes, and no. I'm also a bit curious as to why there are two people outside our rooms knocking. But I'm guessing all the rooms are taken." She scratched the back of her head. "In all honesty though, I'd prefer to be outside. I feel like I've been couped up to long."
