@Zephrun's Imperium

Audra looked at the mug of...something intoxicating that she'd barely taken two sips of, then shrugged, following the crazy mud lady.

Audra arrived in Mirko at last, exhausted from her flight but grinning ear to ear from the excitement of flying through fire and the prospect of an adventure. Now, if she could just find other adventurers...and a guide might be nice, too. She walked into a nearby bar for two reasons. First, she could really use a drink after that long journey. Second, bars were where stupid people tended to congregate, and you had to be a very special variety of stupid to seek out this quest. She stepped up to the counter, placing a few small coins in front of the bartender. "Whatever's easiest for around this price." After she received her drink, she took a seat, taking in her surroundings. A merperson and a muddy hag were having a drinking competition, so she began watching them. That was, after all, the most interesting thing going on. For a bar in the middle of a city, this one was pretty dull.

"But...you'll be alright, yes? It's not something that I should start really worrying about and trying to help you with?"

Queen felt an impulse to run after Ayia and Tvora, but forced herself to stay by Martin's side.

"Is there anything we can do to help?"

Queen's help-even-if-you-have-no-clue-how-to instinct kicked in. Which basically just meant she got closer to Martin and looked at him with concern.

"It's okay to stay out of the fight once in a while. Especially if you aren't in a condition to fight, and...from the look of you, you probably aren't."

"That's because I've gotten really good at...avoiding things, lately." Queen let out a dry laugh, then sighed. "I hate it."

Queen nodded. "I don't think any of us are."

Queen stayed out of the way of the fighting with her new mechanical animal friend, keeping an eye out for anyone who might need medical assistance. In her nervousness, she pulled a whisk from the tool belt around her hat and began fiddling with it. Queen? Tchanta! Where have you been? I could ask you the same thing. Do you even know half of the Fellowship anymore? Queen's hesitance was answer enough. I've been learning things while you've been in ignorance of everything. Queen sighed. Where do I start? Tchanta mentally pulled Queen's attention to Ayia. That might be a good place. You've been introduced, and she seems a little overwhelmed. Queen's reluctance was evident. I don't like her. Too bad. Go. Tchanta gave her a mental push that transferred to the physical. Once Queen took her first step in that direction, she would've felt embarrassed to stop, so, she walked to Ayia's side. "Hi. Are you alright?"

It's been wayyyyy too long since I've read Leven Thumps, so I don't remember the ending. But I do remember that it is a very good series and the reason why I am constantly in search of toothpicks with purple fringe.

Queen grinned at the mechanical creature. "Thanks!"

"A red panda, please?" Queen grinned in excitement.

Queen rolled her eyes, hiding an amused smile. Queen's eyes widened. "Can I get one?"

My theatre director is of the opinion that Brando Sando goes over/repeats things too much. An example he used was that in one scene it'll be like (I guess SA spoilers kinda?) And I can kinda see where he's coming from, but I don't dislike that he does that, since I tend to forget details, I just remember the general idea and whether or not I liked it. So, repetition for me is good. *shrugs*

WASING THE PLEADING NIPS OF THE JOINING!

Queen stepped up next to Fadran, sizing up Elduver. "Well, wherever you're from...welcome to the Fellowship." She extended her hand. "I'm Queen."
