@Awesomoman64 Sup dude been awhile. How've you been? I'm not even sure if you'd remember me it's been so long.
@Bazmund That's dumb-ness... We need more games and entertainment. On the flip side... Many good games can be made with simple tools... and booze.
@Bazmund True but at this stage it's mostly been petty things so they've voted to keep it quiet for now. With luck it's just a bad first impression and we can go on to do awesome things later on. It's just the initial push of that "first impression" that is weighing as of now. Don't worry about it and I'm sure it will blow over. If it doesn't we'll make a note.

EDIT: In the mean time will there be games on the team's airship? I WANNA PLAY GAMES!
I wouldn't say that it's dead, just that a few of us are having some internal conflicts due to OOC interactions and it's causing a drop in pace for us.
@CollectorOfMyst Well I guess I was a few minutes late to hitting enter. I blame the show I'm watching. It's making things last longer.

Ariah made his paces through the room and upon finding the table established with documents, maps, and of course chairs arranged to invite him closer did such. Walking over to the table he took a seat canted to the right of the old man at the head of it. Sure this was all weird, even for a world of weird, but there seemed to be a solid method to their madness. Then as the rest of the band flowed in through the door their madness was made known. A recap of the local political situation on all sides proved that they had at least managed to do their homework. Followed by a rather shady and underhanded way for why independent contractors were brought into the loop.

All in all it was a rather lack-luster and poor sounding job from an opportunist's view. Yet this kind of thing was exactly what Ariah fought for. While the conversation between Kat and himself only moments ago had been on this very thing. Fighting for an ideal of peace at any cost in a world where it almost seems contradictory. In fact one would even say that these men had stolen his very thoughts and ideals for their own use. Even if the pay wasn't going to be breaking any banks, it wouldn't matter to Ariah, "From the view of a mercenary I'd be mad to join this. But from the standing of an idealist I can't stress how much I'd like to make this change. Count me in!" He spoke out cheerily, ready to begin this fight for peace.

On the topic of Kat however. Well she didn't particularly tag along with his ideals and of course many different ones. To Ariah, her answer may not come as easy, yet no matter what her answer was he'd still drag her along by the ankles if he needed. This was a worthy mission and one that she needed to join him on.
@CollectorOfMyst I've already gone into the room. In fact I think I may have been the first... Having us continue our talk a bit before "The only thing left was to wait a minute before Ariah stood up and started to casually walk after the stranger, making his way through the door to see what adventure waited for him on the other side." To quote my post.

"One time! One time is all it takes! You seem to forget the absolute shootout that came from that 'one time'! And who cares about the choker! People are weird, you know that. And yes, I am still upset about it." Ariah commented knowing full well what Kat was thinking in terms of this topic. It always went to the same place, Ariah being upset about that one time Kat's sadistic tendencies got him shot in the ass. Truth be told he probably would never let that go...

Then came the story he could never forget. Mostly because of how many times she reminded him of it. It must have been her favorite of all time as he heard it in vivid detail damn near daily. Maybe he visibly rolled his eyes, maybe not. Really it was arbitrary at this point because she knew damn well that he knew this story by heart.

One thing that could be said though was that despite all of their bickering and through their seemingly polar opposite views on everything, Ariah was dedicated to Kat just as he knew she was dedicated to him. They've just been through too much to have it any other way.

Then she started talking philosophy and how war was natural. "I think we disagree. War isn't a part of the world. It's just that inside everybody is a little voice that wants to lash out. Doesn't mean that all of us gravitate to war and that our natural state is war. Deep down inside I know we have hate and a need to fight, but we also have that same need to be happy and find peace. After all if our natural state was to kill each other then how can we love and be happy? True war happens and so does killing, but if I was to just shoot somebody at random here it wouldn't be seen as normal or natural. I would have upset the peace and deep down inside that sense of happiness would go against that action. That's why I do this job, because while I fight and kill I strive for that goal. That one day we can all be happy and at peace with the world around us. I mean if I get paid along the way that's no skin of my back, but still."

As Ariah continued to listen to her though the conversation started to change for the crazy. He knew that Kat was a little off but as she went about talking on her views and morals of killing his face contorted and shifted to one of almost quizzical wonder and sheer shock. One may think he'd have grown accustom to her special brand of psycho but after hearing her philosophy to her madness it was almost like watching a train wreck. He just didn't know how to respond to it. Upon her finishing though he had something to add, "It's not that I think you're a mindless, ruthless, psychopathic killer. It's that I think you're a very thought out, ruthless, psychopathic killer. Which I'm not sure is that much better... but hey, take what you get right?"

Then came the gender politics, yet before he could form a response on that thin ice, a stranger came in and dropped the signal, getting a green cocktail and making it quiet known before heading away just like their vague and cryptic orders had said. Dropping the conversation rather abruptly he nudged Kat with a gentle poke before subtly gesturing towards the man with the green drink and nodding. They had their order, their signal, and now their next step. The only thing left was to wait a minute before Ariah stood up and started to casually walk after the stranger, making his way through the door to see what adventure waited for him on the other side.

"Come on Kat, seriously. You can't really think that torture and pain is the only way to go about things. You do stealth right? That means you have to handle at least some situations without making people scream. I know you're capable of it, we're done enough contracts to prove that first hand. So what's with this crazy idea of your's?" Ariah spoke out to Kat who was sitting across from him at of the pubs many booths. This wasn't actually an odd sight to see the two 'discussing' their different views on how contracts should be carried out or how their choice of removing hostiles was so different. To be honest some days it was a miracle they still worked together especially with how different they were.

Despite it all though and through their idle conversation Ariah was keeping an eye out. They were brought here to this city and pub for a specific reason and their conversation helped them to blend in as just another bunch of mercenaries, waiting for the signal in secret. Thankfully the pub didn't look to busy which meant that if anything crazy did happen there at least wouldn't be too many issues with the local populous.

Still, anticipating a fight Ariah was armed, keeping his sword belts strapped to his waist, with Slugger strapped to his left thigh, hidden under his current wind cloak, just in case somebody started to take offense to his level of armament. Yet in his line of business and with how current events were going it never paid to be unprepared.

While talking and chatting with Kat, he made sure to keep an open eye around the establishment, using his already rather active and vivid bodily movements to hide some subtle looks around the room for a few things. The first being the signal, the second an assailants, and third being any smoking hot beauties. After all he was a man and this was a pub and while he did see a few who were clearly quiet attractive, things just seemed so calm and quiet. That of course gave Ariah a little bit of an edge. Mostly because the saying, 'calm before the storm' was only made because it held value and truth to it's name.
