OOC: Excellent, that's why Auron's here, to play the good guy! =D (PS, I have a weird concept of playing the good guy!)IC: Auron:"Really? This Susavree sounds like a beautiful girl," Auron said, removing his bag of widgets, "It's such a shame that I couldn't pay more than whatever those clowns are bidding to have a little bit more than just that."He made a point of tossing the bag full of his thousand widgets up into the air, catching it as he spoke.
IC(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to Auron])
The Toa's mouth began to slowly water as he looks at the bag full of widgets."You have plenty to bid on her!" he says happily; his eyes lighting up brightly. Turning back toward the stairs, he could see the Ga-Toa coming their way. "Here she is now."
(Susavree Nooma [Outskirts of Le-Koro, Makuta's Revenge Tavern, walking down toward the main room])
The beautiful Toa of Water makes her way down the stairs; trying to hide the awkward look on her face.That was one of the worst clients yet... Who knew Le-Matoran could talk that long about their admiration for a stranger...Susavree smiles brightly as she slowly descends the stairs; ready to wait on any tables or do whatever else her Le-Toa boss needed her to do. More whistles and roars from the crowd were thrust upward in her direction, making her feel even worse.OOC: And, if it's a bit odd to think of paying for a date, it's because Susavree's considered an idol of sorts. She's almost worshipped by the people in the tavern...-Mef Man
IC: Vearal"That's enough missie." A voice said, as two strong hands picked Ga'mal up, and deposited her on the floor.The owner of these hands was a Vortixx named Vearal. She crossed her arms. "Go find a room, before you do something you'll regret on the morning."
IC: Auron:The Toa of Fire could easily see why so many people were here, she was beautiful. Auron saw her smile at the crowd, and did all he could to frown. It was obvious she didn't want to be here."Listen," Auron whispered to Levaire, "Bend the rules, and these thousand are yours. I doubt anyone else in the bar could pay this much for her. I'm sure you don't want this money for such a little task."
IC(Ga'mal Auldron [Le-Koro bar talking to Vearal])
"Oh!" Ga'mal exclaims before breaking out into a laugh as the Vortixx picks her up. She slowly spins around on her heel to face the being, saying,"I was just leaving; thank you for the help." The Ga-Matoran curtseys; pretending to hold an invisible dress that wasn't there as she does so.
(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to Auron])
"Bend the rules as in..." Levarie asks, curious as to what the being was planning...-Mef Man
IC: Auron:"I'd just like a little bit more than what you've offered," Auron explained, "I assure you, I wont cause this establishment any trouble, as long as my request is met."
IC (Matan and Natan): "Pure protosteel doesn't come in grey and black" Natan remarked coldly. "It's silver. I could alloy it with other metals to make it grey and black, but then it wouldn't be pure protosteel. Which one do you want? You can't have both".IC: Hau continued presently: "A katara of pure protosteel and a sheath of metal, short and built for armor-piercing. It should also be for my size and gray-black."The toa grinned again. "That's all, folks."
OOC: I'm not gonna. It's a good thing for you that Shade doesn't get seasick.IC (Shade, Le-Wahi river): "Is this it?" Shade asked, uncovering the boat. "It's a beaut, except for that rahi-wheel in the center. Let me guess: one of us has to run to paddle. I hope none of us get seasick." he looked the boat over. "Otherwise, she looks seaworthy."
OOC: Pie, do not speak of such things! You'll jinx us! :PIC (Hatann): "It'll be fine" Hatann assured them as he dragged the boat into the water. "I've already crossed the ditch once in this thing without ending up in the drink".IC(Kaerhi):Kaerhi studied the boat with a hidden interest. It looked stable enough. Hopefully it wouldn't sink halfway to the Islets.
IC(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to Auron])
"I can't pass up an oppurtunity to make a few extra widgets," he states while holding his hand out for the money.-Mef Man
IC: (Le-Koro)Tyrion smiled at Ga'mal as the Vortixx picked her up. "I'm afraid I need to go to the bathroom. G'night, Ga'mal."Before she could do any contradictions, and he sure as Karz hoped she wouldn't, he removed himself to the bathroom. There, while sitting on the loo, he took one deep thought on what to do.The answer was remarkably simple."Get out."He looked around for a window. There was, a small one, up high; that contradicted so many of his capabilities that he could not even dream of nor reaching it nor getting through it. So he opted for the simple way out. Wait. Ga'mal would eventually go get a room. He could leave.He did not like what was going on today. She may have been the only girl to ever seem to genuinely like him; but he didn't seem to think it right. It was somehow just right when everybody looked at him as just plain ugly.Tyrion stayed there for a few hours yet.
IC: Auron:He held the bag of widgets a little way away from him, "As long as I get my way with the girl."
OOC: I'm just looking at all possibilities.
IC(Kaerhi): Kaerhi ripped his ruined cloak off and left it on the shore as he stepped into the boat. It showed all of his scars, but he didn't appear to care. "It would just slow me down."
IC: Kodu finally found his way bakc to Pala-Koro, and looked around. He didn't remember it being this empty. "Where did everyone go?" he asked the few who remained.
IC
(Ga'mal Auldron [Le-Koro bar talking to Tyrion])
"Hey, you okay in there?" The Ga-Matoran had been waiting outside of the window for some time now. She wasn't allowed inside the inn. She wasn't told she couldn't stand outside.
(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to Auron])
Levarie sat still for a moment before finally saying,"Fine. Just no Brakas business. You'll see that I don't only aim well with a crossbow, but I also have an itchy trigger finger."-Mef Man
IC: Auron:The Ta-Toa grinned, dropping the widgets into his hands, "Deal."
IC(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to Auron])
The Toa of Air smiles as he points toward the Toa of Water; eyes not leaving the widgets. "She's all yours."
(Susavree Nooma [Outskirts of Le-Koro, Makuta's Revenge Tavern, walking down toward the main room])
Immediatly, the Toa of Water walks toward Auron, guessing it was her next "date.""Welcome to Makuta's Revenge. If you'll follow me, please," she says before walking back upstairs.How many times must I climb these stairs? I can't breath with this corset...-Mef Man
IC: Onyx"Someone's got to stick around to protect the Turaga and make sure work gets done. Unlike most, I don't tire easily so I put in a lot of my time adding to the village, though this house here's for my brothers and I. If we're going to call this village home, we might as well have a suitable place to live."
IC: (Le-Koro)Tyrion swore. This was -not- working out well!Right. Plan of action: I get a bed at the inn. She can't go inside. Get a bed at the inn. Right. Set out at dawnbreak. And lock the door.Seven karzes, he was better off surviving court intrigue back home. Now he was just screwed. Dang right screwed.This was not funny, he remarked to anyone who would possibly be reading the story of his life in the future; not funny at all. In fact, if they found it funny, they could try being trapped in an inn with a drunk girl just waiting outside. Not. Funny. At all!He did the only thing he could. Got a room. And bribed the bartender to tell anyone coming that he's still inside for a whole day. Meanwhile, he went down to the kitchens. There was always a way down to the sewers from the kitchens in a big city. And this one didn't disappoint.Sewers. A little bit better. If he knew anything, they'd bring him out somewhere near the biggest close body of water... yes. Lake Pala.Oh, it was a bad day.
IC(Ga'mal Auldron [Outside of Le-Koro bar talking to Tyrion])
"I guess he's not in there," Ga'mal says before turning around and walking down the street. "Been stood up again..." she mumbles in a lower tone, the smile gone from her face.-Mef Man
IC: Auron:"My..." The Toa said, following her, "You really seem worth the price, such an exquisite appearance... Do you want me to loosen your corset for you? You probably can't breath in that blasted thing."Auron tapped his thigh, and suddenly in front of her, a few words appeared for a moment, a dim fire burning in the air, "Trust me, play along"He hoped she understood what they meant.
IC(Susavree Nooma [Outskirts of Le-Koro, Makuta's Revenge Tavern, walking down toward the main room])
What the..."I'm fine, thank you," she replies with a small blush. As they walk, she makes it to the private room. The Toa quickly opens it and leads Auron inside; hoping he would explain himself more inside.-Mef Man
IC: Auron:When they both were in the room, Auron made sure the door was locked, then pushed a spare table against it. With that done, he sat down in a chair."Well then, I must say good evening my dear, and my condolences about your current situation," he said, he reached inside his armor, pulling out a coin with a green Ruki on one side, and a blue takea on the other. He held the coin up so the Ruki side faced her, "I'm a friend, here to help."
IC(Susavree Nooma [Outskirts of Le-Koro, Makuta's Revenge Tavern, inside private room])
"What the Karz are you doing?" she exclaims; cursing for (most likely) the first time in her life. This coin was the last thing on her mind as she looked toward the door. She slowly backs away from the being, stating,"N-now, just because you paid a bit more doesn't mean you can do something like this. Now, let's do just what you paid for me to do, okay? Nothing more, nothing less."-Mef Man
IC: Zacax as CalebosThe two walked through the outskirts of Le-Wahi talking, Zacax was trying to find the being named Auron, confused of this was someone else."So you actually sucker punched a skakdi a few feet back?" Zacax asked, "That's awesome!""I know right!" Calebos said, "I didn't know I could do that!"
IC: Auron:Auron sighed, people are so difficult, "Allow me to explain myself. I don't want anyone walking in on this discussion. I want you to understand, just now I paid a thousand widgets to have my way with you. If I wanted to do so anyway. I never told your owner that all I wanted to do was give you something you might never have had in some years."He leaned forward, looking her in the eye. The crystals that protruded from him shoulders glowed a dim blue like his heartlight and eyes, "I've met people like you before, in worse condition. I want to help, so please sit down in another chair, and I can explain myself. No harm from me will come to you this night by my hand, and if it does, you can do the same to me, or worse. That's my promise before I tell you what I'm really here for."
OOC: Nigh perfect timing.....Yes. Yes it is.IC(Hograth):The crowd down below raised a roar that woke Hograth up pretty fast. "This was a bad choice of an inn...." he muttered as he slid his feet over the side onto the floor."What time is it? Midnight? Maybe earlier?" he yawned. The first thing he thought of was Susavree. "Well, maybe it wouldn't hurt to see her a little early...." he said to himself as he got up and stretched a little. With that in mind, he opened the door and left his room(after closing the door). He walked down the staircase, and in a quick movement, ran up the other staircase. Hopefully no one saw me. He neared the room where he originally met her.....
IC
(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to Hograth])
"Hey, you need something?" the Toa calls out to Hograth after watching him walk down the stairs. "Care for 'another round'?"
(Susavree Nooma [Outskirts of Le-Koro, Makuta's Revenge Tavern, inside private room])
The Toa shakily takes a seat. " 'People like me'? What do you mean by that? I'm perfectly fine...well, I was perfectly fine," she says, her hand slowly edging toward the bottom of her outfit...-Mef Man
IC:Soulgain was still waiting for someone in the Makuta's Revenge to give it a glass.
IC: (Makuta's Revenge)Elianne walked into the rather grimly named tavern, the hood of a cloak obscuring her face. She walked up to the bartender and knocked, quietly, on the bar."I've heard," she said, in a quiet, soft voice, "that there's someone called Auron around here. Know anyone by that name?"
IC(Hograth): Brakas. "Um, no thanks. I'm just....looking for a item of mine I must have dropped up here."
IC:Soulgain still wanted a drink.
IC(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to others])
Levaire nods his head at Hograth before turning to Soulgain and Elianne."No, I'm afraid I haven't heard of an Auron, but he may be here. I don't get too socialble with the customers when it's this busy. Now, what can I get you two to drink?" he asks the two beings.-Mef Man
IC:"Alcoholic beverage," said Soulgain once more in its androgynous and monotone voice.
IC(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to Soulgain])
"That's pretty blunt," he says with a chuckle before turning back toward the bar; beginning to pour the most expensive alcholic beverage he had...-Mef Man
IC: (Makuta's Revenge)"I'll have some madu juice, thanks," she said, handing the bartender a few widgets.
IC:"Cheap one," it added.
IC(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to Elianne and Soulgain])
"Sorry; should've told me that before I started pouring your drink," he says to Soulgain before reaching back and taking Elianne's widgets. "Coming right up, Miss." The Toa pours both drinks and asks,"So, what's with the hood? Acne?"-Mef Man
IC: (Le-Koro)Elianne took the hood off in one meaningless gesture somehow almost magically combined with that of taking the drink."No, but it is kind of chilly outside for a summer night."
IC: Auron:"Exactly, right now you're proving my point," Auron explained, "Allow me to guess at your past. You probably lived a peaceful life wherever you lived before. Then, the Toa downstairs either bought you from one of your parents who was in debt and needed the money, or you were captured somehow. He's probably kept you here ever since, using you to cook, clean, and act as a consort to anyone who can pay. What if I told you that I could get rid of that for you?"
IC(Hograth): Thank Mata Nui he's a little short on brains... Hograth smiled at him and continued up the stairs. "It was...yeah, that way." he muttered to himself. He looked into a mirror that was set on the wall and straightened his mask and generally tried to improve his appearance. "Hi, Susavree, I was wondering what we would do tomorrow morning....no, that sounds annoying...." he mumbled as he approached the door.
IC
(Levarie Obed [Le-Koro "Makuta's Revenge" Tavern talking to Elianne and Soulgain])
Levarie nods his head in agreement to Elianne as he places her cup on the bar; turning around to face the two. "Woah," the Toa couldn't help but say as he looks over Elianne, almost completely forgetting about Soulgain and it's drink that was pouring. "You don't need a job do you?" he asks Elianne with a small smirk; pulling Soulgain's drink away from the cask and toward the bar."That'll be thirty-three widgets," he says to Soulgain, looking over the odd being a bit more confused.What are you?
(Susavree Nooma [Outskirts of Le-Koro, Makuta's Revenge Tavern, inside private room])
"I'd tell you that you're insane and you need to enjoy your services with me before the other maid comes to the door only to find it barred. One of my friends will be here any second you know," she says, hand resting on the edge of her outfit.-Mef Man
