RP Free for All: Chapter 21

"You're the one who keeps bugging my little sister." Val glared at Rennyr.

He turned back to Susan and smiled. Val lowered himself closer to her ear.

"We did more then just kiss in his quarters, my dear."

"For a beauty like you. I don't think you need to steal my pockets." Sloan flipped her a coin.

"Shall we get going?"

Meanwhile:

Skullcrusher stares awkwardly as Lexa proceeds to build a fort out of books in the living room.

"Where is everyone else anyways?"

"Irritate him? Whatever could you mean, darling?" Val said acting innocent.

"Stealing more affection? I am fine with that." Sloan grinned at her. He walked her out to the deck and called for a man to row them to shore.

"Who to bother. Usually you find the ones who want too much attention....or too little, like Azazel. The broody ones are fun to mess with." He smiled and looked around the town for a target.

"Not a bad choice, love." Sloan smiled and walked over towards the man.

"My what a keen eye you have, sir. You certainly know what great quality is." He acts a bit shock and quickly apologizes.

"I am sorry to intrude. I couldn't help but overhear your discussion."

"Let's hang around and see what they do. We can always leave when they start peeling each others clothes." Val smirked and followed after them.

The man puffs out his chest at Sloan's compliments. "No trouble at all, son. I'm glad someone finally realized it."

Vasani follows after shortly and starts to quietly look at the supplies on sale. 

The man's gaze flicks over to Vasani and he starts talking loudly to Sloan about the benefits of iron daggers over steel ones. Sloan can't help but notice all his information is horribly wrong.

"With such good eyes and knowledge like yours must be someone of great importance here. Many apologies, I am new to this town and still navigating my way around." Sloan held his hand out towards the man.

"My name is Sylvar. This is my friend Va..Valindra." He said a little louder so Vasani could hear as he motioned towards her.

Val followed behind Susan and leaned back against a wall. Switching his glasses to sunglasses. He sneakily steals a cigarette from Susan and sticks it into his mouth.

The man takes Sloan's hand in his large, sweaty one and shakes it. "Francis Beaufort. My family has invested in this town for generations. We practically own the place." The shopkeeper rolls his eyes.

Vasani turns around and offers Francis a small smile. Doing her best to look bashful, she lowers her gaze as she greets him. "It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Beaufort."

He hastily takes Vasani's hand and presses a sloppy kiss to the back, leaving Vasani glad she had her face overted to hide her displeased expression. "And good to meet you too, sweetheart."

Looking mightily pleased with himself, he turns back to Sloan with a cocky grin. "Is there anything I can do to help you and your friend feel more at home in my fair town?"

Susan manages to swipe the pair of sunglasses off of Val's face, but he seem to be wearing more then one. This man just loves his layers doesn't he/

Sloan acts shock at his introduction.

"Oh dear. To be in the presence of such a great man!" The elf looks speechless.

"It would be a great honor if you could show us around. Perhaps point out a good place to stay for the night? I am sure there are many great places and things to see in this town."

Franic preens at Sloan's speechlessness and laughs as he smacks the drow's shoulder. "I don't normally do such things, but why not. Follow me."

He starts strutting down the road and the shopkeeper makes a rude gesture behind his back as he departs.

Vasani slides up next to Sloan and whispers, "Do you have a plan for this idiot?"
