*cough* it's grammatically incorrect not to space out the dots in an ellipses *cough*

"We wait, at least a little. I work here now, I can find more information then you can--and certainly in a more delicate way then just interrogating the tavern keeper. We watch. We figure out what's happening." "If it's not as simple as it seems, then we do what can. If this really is a black-and-white den of evil then we run and take her with us." "Tomorrow I'll be working with the Tavernkeeprr directly and I'll ask him about things, maybe snoop around a little. You can spend time with Jolane. We'll make a plan from there." July took a deep breath, calming himself down. "We can't let this devolve into violence."

they're just too sweet . . .

"I saw a girl who's been pushed into a corner, if there was an easy solution she would've already taken it." He said, standing in her way, jaw set. "These things are best handled with caution and understanding--if you rush into it you could make things worse. A lot worse." "I know what's common in my lands. And, I know that there's a certain way to handle it."

I LOVE TOMATOES (except for the cherry ones, they're gross) NO SANDWHICH IS COMPLETE WITHOUT THEM

"Okay, we will, but we'll talk about this more tomorrow, okay?" July said evenly. He opened the door all the way. He hurried after her. "Where are you going?" He had a suspicion it wasn't back to her room.

July's hand was still on the door handle. "What do you want us to do?"

"We don't want to bother you . . . but we want to help. Maybe I can step in since I'll be staying for a while?"

"We can talk more in the morning, I'm sure you need to rest." He headed to the door.

"We can leave you alone if you want . . ."

"Mhm. I can handle myself well enough, but some people need help." July said, putting emphasis on the second part. He looked done at her, mentally taking note of the good head of height he had on her. "Since when does being an adult make you an elder? You can't be more then a decade older than me." July grabbed her hand. "You can't barge into a young girls room! Even if you are a lady yourself." But the door was already open, so it was little use in complaining.

"Is it not fine for you?"

"We shouldn't bother her if she's turning in--" "Sorry to bother you so much." July smirked. "Are you trying to scare me away? How long have you been here, little easterner?"

"Well . . . she didn't open it so maybe she's shy?" He whispered to her. "I just wanted to introduce myself, that's all."

"I'm still here, but there's someone else . . . a guest I think." July called through the door. He glanced at Ma'Tani, "Do you need something?" @The Bookwyrm

Nice! Blueberry's a great pick.

July shrugged. "I've been in worse places believe me." He had left his cloak in his room, revealing a knee-length black tunic, and grey trousers with sturdy boots. His black hair was pulled back in a braid that reached his middle back. He was young, but his tan face was etched with several thin scars. "Who're you?" "Yeah, that's why I wanted to introduce myself.

"Oh, no, I got a job here . . . just now. I start tomorrow." He ran a hand through his black hair, wishing this was a little less awkward.

OH I THOUGHT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT ME IM SORRY

"Oh, uh it's just me . . . I wanted to introduce myself cause I couldn't earlier. I'm July!"

wut? I've never been in insanity clinc??

Yeah but it'd be so sad if the games ended in 3 days cause everyone died to killer ants.

July glanced around the small room, noting how empty it felt, and sat his bag down. It hit the floorboards with a suspicious clunk--he'd have to find a better place to hide the gem while he was there. After hanging up his cloak and sitting on his cott for a few minutes, he decided he was still too antsy to sleep. July left his room and wandered over to Jolane's door. He still needed to properly introduce himself, especially since they'd be working together. Hoping she hadn't gone to bed yet, he knocked on her door.

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay do I get a prize
