@GingerBoi123 It could get things moving faster to involve people.. depends where people want to go. Maybe wait a bit for others to reply and see where their ideas go and then think about it? I know Isago's wandering and has some plot in mind there..

Bio
I'm mostly an OC RP-er. I have a bunch of OCs that are pre-established but am always open to creating new characters within new stories. I prefer PMs for 1x1 RPs just because they are easier to keep on top of in my opinion.
I enjoy coming up with plots and I do like gritty stuff, I am also a huuge fan of fantasy, so if plots are left to me, that is generally the direction that they will go in!
I can RP one-liners or casually; 2-3 paragraphs is my limit for speedy replying because i’ve got a busy job and can’t sustain massive posts every time DX but I will do my best to match what you give me :) I'm wary of RPing smut, but I don’t mind a bit of romance and smush. I tend to say kiss touch and play, anything more fades to black :D
I can't say how quick I can be to reply, I work uncertain hours - apologies in advance!

Ratte's eyes fell onto the gold like magnets out of old habit. The niggling voice that told her to use what she had to take it from him started worrying at the back of her mind, but this time it was drowned out. She had a much larger voice now showing her the mountain of gold that she had stashed and it reassured her that she had no reason to accept this man's offers. She had enough money.
Instead, her mind took a new turn. It was something that she wasn't used to thinking about and it caught her off guard; fear for others. The man wasn't familiar to her and he was looking for information about her, Roxy, Kai, Eryx and Isago. What if he wasn't trying to join them, but hunt them? Her guards went up and she flicked her dark eyes up to the so-called 'pirate'.
"That's a big chunk of gold you're waving around there, an awful lot more than I'd have expected you to start with for information," she glanced around the bar, looking for anyone suspicious, and laid a hand across her thighs. She leaned forward and stroked the hilt of the dagger strapped to her leg there. It would be awkward to pull it out sat here at the bar, but its presence reassured her. "See, normally I'd expect to bargain up to that amount. What are you really after?" she asked, eyes back on him. She had been hearing whispers recently, that someone had taken out the Black Widow. Having met and been particularly impressed by Roxy herself, Ratte imagined it had been a rough fight and this man looked like he could fight dirty. What if this was the killer?

@Raptra Without taking over, I can't get Ratte to take Arin to the hideout just yet.. might be wise for Kai to venture out unless you want to wait it out for a bit until someone goes back to the hideout..
@King Tai Aw hope you are starting to feel better!
Ratte didn't recognize the man that sat beside her, so when he started talking to her, she started a little and snapped her head to him. For a moment, she thought that he was another horny male, seeking attention but then she heard him. Thieve's cant was something that she thought had died out years ago, like an old fad. She hadn't learnt it specifically, but she had been around groups of thieves that much that she had picked up the words and phrases enough to understand.
She smirked softly to herself and leaned back against the bar, watching him, "Mmm, I heard that too. I heard the mob got a tall man's yellow tin, but my question to you, good sir, is why are you spouting such flash lingo in the presence of a lady?" she raised an eyebrow.
(Mm, I heard that too. I heard that the thieves got a lot of gold, but my question to you, good sir, is why are you using thieve's cant in my presence?)
She quickly scoured the tavern with her dark eyes, looking for the tell-tale signs of the law. She was fully aware that some of the guard had learnt thieve's cant and used it to find and infiltrate gangs. She wasn't worried about being recognized - her posters had covered the city walls before - she simply wanted to know what this man's goals were. Especially since he was talking about what a group of them had done. With Roxy still missing and not having seen the rest of the gang since they had split up with their treasure, something in Ratte's gut was telling her to watch her tongue, rather than gloat for the safety of the others. Particularly the kid.

@GingerBoi123 I like the idea of thieve's cant, I've never seen it before - should be fun! Ratte works alone among thieves, so it would make sense that she knows it. I'll respond to you if nobody else posts soon :)
@Raptra Go for the filler :) It could be a good chance for everyone to get back together again :D

Ratte habitually made rounds to several taverns every night unless she was otherwise occupied. She kept herself hidden by hiding in plain sight. Her dark and slight nature was easily missed when she set her gait straight and kept her pace just a tad slower than everyone else. She ducked around drunken men and women without causing a fuss and slunk into corners with her drinks or food to avoid anyone's attention. She kept her hood down, keeping people's curiosity at bay and never made eye contact unless she wanted to.
Her scuttling had offered her many opportunities to plunder the pockets of the drunkards that she came across. But tonight was different.
In the back of her head, Ratte could see the glistening pile of gold that she had stashed. It was, frankly, more gold than she had ever seen in her life. Of course, she didn't want it. She would send it away, piece by piece. It was her insurance, should anything happen to her and a good load off her mind, but it was so distracting. She had taken a small amount for herself and the remains of that almost stung in her pocket. She didn't need to steal tonight, but it felt as though she already had. She sat herself down in a regular tavern of hers and blew a strand of hair from her face. She ought to get it cut soon, it was starting to get too shaggy. She leaned against the bar and pulled out a gold coin and then passed it to the bartender, "My tab for the night," she said, "I'll have an ale to begin."
She turned to look across the bar, scouting out any familiar faces. Things had been quiet since her escapades with the heist team and she found herself thinking of them, wondering where they were. She had been terrible at it, but working in a team had been an interesting experience that, the more she thought about it, the more she wanted to try again.

I went with the time skip that @KatherinWinter used, hope that's okay :)
Ratte felt surprisingly alive and awake. She supposed it was her mind buzzing with questions, annoyance and debate. Their leader had disappeared and for no real reason. Ratte was certain that Roxy had better fighting skills than her and had more stamina. She had crept up on Ratte, who had declared herself queen lack-of-surprise to anyone that had listened. So why forfeit the fight like she had?
There was also a new person here. She didn't trust him. She was certain now that he wasn't trying to claim their gold for his own, but she still had her doubts. She let her eyes drift over him. He was unusual; all white to her darkness, yet beneath the exterior she sensed the history that he had built himself on. She sighed and looked back down at the barrels of gold they had managed to acquire.
She had stuffed her satchel full of gold coins and hidden a few in her boots. The rest remained in the barrel and she sat watching it, perplexed. In her hand, she held a small knife and she flicked it absent-mindedly. She hadn't thought about the sheer amount of gold that they would be getting - she had expected a few gems that she could pawn off later, but never this much. She didn't have anywhere to put it. She would have to hide it somewhere. "That's it..." she mumbled, "I'm becoming a pirate."
She looked across at Kai, "Hey kid, how do you make a treasure map?" she asked, flicking the knife and catching it, "I want to hide my treasure..."

@Raptra, @Sleeth I'll get a reply up maybe Tuesday - really sorry, I have assessments due Wednesday and all sorts of personal life things! @Sleeth, feel free to reply before that :)
@GingerBoi123 Welcome! Hope you manage to jump in! Could be a good idea to have him try to pilfer some of the gold from the carriage as a way in or if the group heads for somewhere to stay and share out the loot, then we could meet him there?
@KatherinWinter maybe you could be some NPCs to help direct people - create some rumours about Roxy? Ratte will be pissed she's just up and left so she would do some digging to find out what she's up to.. could do that maybe?
