Journey To Shady Grove IC

[Taria]

"Fishies!" Salina suddenly blurts out in her sleep, looking incredibly pleased with herself.

[Cliff Racer]

Nisil giggles a little at Salina's little outburst, then leans over to Garian. "I say make her do a striptease. It'd be the least she could do for taking my gold piece." She scoffs a little, looking amused with herself.

[That_One_Guy]

Garian smiled, "Alright, get in my wagon and give both me and Nisil here a striptease." He said, "Do a good job and I'll let you have a single piece of merchandise, do a really good job and I'll let you travel with us, do an EXTREMELY good job, and you can travel free of charge.

[napsii]

Tanya's facial expression faltered from interested to a mix of disappointment and neutrality just as soon as Nisil opened her mouth. She looked over Garian. He wasn't that terrible looking, for a trader... but she certainly wasn't willing to start stripping off the rest of her clothes right here in a stable, of all places. Plus, her pride commanded her not to give this Nisil character any sort of justice...

"Here's my counter-offer: I'll do that, in private, for you, later, after we're out of here." she proposed. Of all the things he could ask for, that was probably the one she had expected the second-most, and maybe was the most innocuous since it didn't really cost her anything material. Plus, she could ditch them at any time.

[That_One_Guy]

Garian thought for a moment and walked up closer to her, "Here is my counter-counter offer, you can give it private, but it will have to be with both me and Nisil watching, or you can do it twice, once for me and once for Nisil." He said with a smile, "You know, the punishment for thievery is death, especially when you steal from a merchant."

[Cliff Racer]

Nisil just smiles a little, readjusting her grip on Salina. She's enjoying how Garian is handling this, he's definately dealt with thieves before. Well, so has she, just likely not to the extent he has. But in her eyes, he's bargaining beautifully.

[Taria]

Salina yawns cutely as she begins to rub her eyes and looks around curiosuly. "Mmph... apologies, I tend to take noon naps." She explains to her friends before spotting the girl from before. Salina turns her attention to Tanya and says, "Oh, hello!" Salina doesn't look inconvienenced in the slightest by the fact she's still being carried around.

[napsii]

Tanya rolled her eyes, feeling little use in dragging on the debate further. Her gut told her to just run, since another wanted poster of a tan-skinned, roguish looking gal wouldn't harm her efforts at eluding the authorities much, but she couldn't afford such difficulties if Shady Grove itself was within her grasp.

"Alright, then." she agreed. Just once, in private. She began slipping her clothing back on... for now, it seemed. "But you know, there's not much stopping me from running, so consider this charity." she added.

She ignored Salina, wanting to minimize the chit-chat with this group for the time being.

[That_One_Guy]

Garian smiled, "Good, very good, and if you run, well, I'm good at tracking and hunting." He said, patting her shoulder and looked at Salina, "You're awake, that's good, want to continue resting in my wagon, or do you want to join us in a room for a private striptease?" He asked her.

[Taria]

Salina looks at Garian with a confused expression. "A strip... tease? Is that anything like how they make jerky?"

[Cliff Racer]

Nisil doesn't seem to have an issue with continuing to carry Salina, even now that she is awake. She smiles a little at her, then giggles a bit. "Not at all. You may see in a bit, actually!" She turns to Tanya. "I doubt this reaction says anything to you about how much she'd enjoy the striptease, but I'd let her in, too. For fun."

[That_One_Guy]

Garian raised an eyebrow and shook his head, "no, it's when this nice lady here, " he said this as he pointed at Tanya, "Takes off her clothes sexy like till she is naked while we watch." He told her, "Now, you don't have to watch, since you're a nun and all, but maybe you can see this as a way of seeing the world." He said with a smile.

[Taria]

Salina seems to be most confounded by this recent piece of information. "But... that is indecent. We're not supposed to be without clothing in front of each other!"

[That_One_Guy]

Garian chuckled at this, "It's also indecent to drink liquor, but that doesn't stop me."

[Cliff Racer]

"Hehe, I think it's best you abstained, then, dear. You could perhaps wait while we attend to her." She says that while motioning to Tanya.

[napsii]

"You talk too much." she opined simply -- but not unkindly, strangely enough -- of the group, finishing buttoning her coat back up. She flicked her hood back over her head out of reflex.

[That_One_Guy]

Garian looked at Tanya, "Come, I'll get us a room at the Inn for a cheap price" He then started to walk towards the Inn.

[Taria]

Salina's face begins to glow pink as she becomes flustered. "Well I certainly will not be taking of my clothes for anyone! E-even if it is customary here to reveal one's body I will not!"

[That_One_Guy]

Garian stopped and turned around to look at Salina, "You're not going to be taking off your clothes, you're going to be watching someone take off THEIR clothes." He smiled and left the stable.

[Cliff Racer]

"Don't worry, Salina, you do not have to be involved at all." Nisil sets her in the wagon. "I don't think it will take very long, please, relax." She smiles and nods, then waits for Tanya before following behind her.
