William Brand Posted March 31, 2005 Author Posted March 31, 2005 whoaaaa there. Settle down. Take a seat and tell me what's going on. I'll get you a pint.
Hetha Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 *Steps in cautiously* William, I might also need a stiff drink! Not real happy right now! Mind ye, only after the Mercenary....

PyratePhil Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Here, take this Spanish silver. And should Christine and Phil end up mud wrestling over there at the The Dragon & Tiger Den, as I'm sure they will, please put a small wager on Christine and keep the rest for yourself.

William Brand Posted April 1, 2005 Author Posted April 1, 2005 (places a very large hot chocolate drink in front of Mercenary and takes out a lute. plays something non-descript and soothing, but says nothing.) Sometimes it's best not to say anything. Aye.
Tudor MercWench Smith Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 nods silenty, sipping the warm drink, and starting to cry a little

I need to, shall we say, balance the account and make a withdrawal. As for the loan shark, I mean supervisor, he's now doing some accounting down at Davy Jones Locker.

Hetha Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 *Stumbles in rather awkwardly, after spending several hours hours in most, skilled, masterful, capable hands, I find a stool on which to sit*William, I need something to clear the head. I have a tourney tomorrow, and need to prepare! *Let's out a breathless sigh of relief* OOps! That was my outside voice;)! "Big on self-reliance and personal responsibility.

Tudor MercWench Smith Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 pours Hetha a glass from her pitcher come and join me! I shan't be quite such gloomy company, for things are looking up! . . . I just found some 'garb' for me shin-dig! . . . now I just have to worry about what if the company defrauds me on my credit card. . . . . . and about the lad . . . SO! Hetha! Tell me all about this tourney! Any particular field? I love a good tourney - sometimes even compete myself! Well, that is if you count mud wrestling a tourney?
Hetha Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 (Sorry I took so long in responding, husband spoke to someone new in India, very interesting!!)

Hetha Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 *Walks in- much later,without a word, pulls up a stool, looking slightly sweaty, from the morning jaunt. Orders Ray to serve some dram. Receives it gratefully, and wonders how the heck can I close a can of worms i just opened! Take the dram and downs it quickly, motioning for another, and another, and yet another! Lightly bounces forehead on the bar, not expecting any sympathy, comfort or empathy! "I am so stupid!" I keep repeating to myself, while banging my head!* OOps! That was my outside voice;)!

PyratePhil Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 Phil strolls in wearing his black silk jammies...um, I mean, Taiji uniform...and seeing Hetha sitting forlornly in the dark corner, cautiously approaches... "May I join you, m'lady?" ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius
