I travel with a thief, a former knight, an apothecary, a scholar, a cleric, a merchant and a huntress. The huntress also keeps company with what she calls a snow leopard, a beast as white as snow with dark spots and quite fearsome unless she likes you.
[ Ah. ]
They all have their reasons to travel, and upon learning that some of us had similar destinations, we decided to travel together. It does result in fights with those who would... ah, stand in the way of their goals, but we're accustomed to that.
I suppose that's how most groups end up traveling together. I know it was the same for me. Just happened to be heading the same direction, things are certainly easier as a group in certain circumstances. Especially a fight.
The Mighty Nein! There's seven of us. [cool joke, guys]
Beauregard, who I assume you've seen mucking about the place. Caleb, who I mentioned. Wizard with the cat. Nott, our rogue, thief of hearts and buttons alike. Fjord, a fine friend in a tough fight. Jester, our cleric and general chaos manager. And Yasha, the charm.
[He falters for a second. How much to explain here. Or better to keep pretending, at least for the moment?]
They . . . had to leave me behind for a while, yeah. Should be all fixed by the end of whatever it is we're doing here. That's the point of all of this.

[ But sure, she'll jangle on over and seat herself down on the mat closest to him, tipping her head back to look up. ]

[Looking over at her when she jinglejangles his direction, giving her a toothy smile.]
Do you recognize them? The constellations.
no subject
I didn't tend to let my gaze linger on the stars back home, but even so, I knew the ones that marked direction. I don't see their forms above.

[The foot that's in the air waggles a bit while he contemplates this for a minute, but, back to the conversation at hand.]
You did mention traveling with a group before.
no subject
Were you curious about that? Or were you the same?
no subject
Actually - maybe you feel the same - feels very odd to be staying in one place like this for so long. Felt terrible to not see the stars.
no subject
[ And now look at them. ]
dw . . . my notifs . . . my notifs . . . . . . dw . . . .
Almost makes me . . . itchy. Did you move on because you had to? Or just wanted to?

[ Good times, really. ]

[He knows that’s nosey, but still. What an intriguing thing to say?]
no subject
[ Hm. ]

[ Hm! Well, Molly’s only known her five minutes and thinks she should be able to do whatever she likes.]
Tell me about your group.

[ Seems only fair to her. ]

[A snow leopard makes that seem like TRASH.]

[He does sound very fond though when he says that.]
They seem to be doing well lately, however. At least according to Beau.
no subject
[ She blinks, a little perplexed. ] Were you separated from them?
no subject
They . . . had to leave me behind for a while, yeah. Should be all fixed by the end of whatever it is we're doing here. That's the point of all of this.
no subject
It is not my place to ask. Thank you for answering even as much as you did, Molly.
no subject
I suppose I said something intriguing. Can't be blamed for following on that.
