Seda remained on her perch awhle - watching the exchange, the friendly banter, between the large man and her brighter counterpart at the stand. He was tense, the smell of it rolled away on the breeze even over all the other scents around her. A passerby wouldn't notice in the least - most people wouldn't notice in the least. Was it that she was watching them, or was there something else hidden there under the surface? Oh the curiosity...

She watched the nimble tongued female shake something from a bottle - a dark brow lifted at the unseen gesture. And then a blindfold was brought out. Oh this was interesting indeed. It was interesting enough to draw the huntress off her chosen vantage point, winding through the crowd with the grace of a lioness on the move toward the game of chance. Â Approaching casually, the blindfolded one would scent her long before she arrived - honey and sandalwood. Tufted tail swung lazily behind her as she leaned against the table next to them, much to the chagrin of the marketeer there. She dropped a few gil in front of the chubby sun worn face and plucked a piece of fruit from the stand as she watched the game underway.

'Red' as he had been dubbed by the catkin, was rather amused as he got knocked in the chest lightly three times. Smiling brightly and shaking his head at her banter. "What doesn't kill you, only makes it more fun." Honesty rolling off his tongue like a lead brick wrapped in granite. Probably hard enough to break anything in it's way-if only it were real.

As the bag of gil was relinquished to the woman, he folded his massive arms over his chest. Grinning gently now, no longer ~just~ smiling. Watching as Kat blindfolded herself. "Well, you won't see me coming then." Snickering gently now. That joke was so horribly overused that I doubt it carried any weight. He should feel bad, but he didin't.

Twisting his head slowly to the side as he caught wind of a most pleasant smell. Bringing his attention upon the peering-woman from earlier who had decided to join them. Giving her a nod of his head in greeting as she leaned upon the nearby table of a merchant.Â

Body more tense then it was ever before, now. Turning his attention once more to Kat slowly. "Let us play! Begin the game you fluffball!" Voice once more playful.

The midlander took place within one areas that provided shadow from the blazing heat that festered within the busy streets of Ul'dah. The pale skin tone standing out amongst the local merchants and adventures of the region - softly muttering to himself. "If it isn't some creature that ends my life. It'll be this damned heat.",Â

The sound of theÂ Miqo'te's voice drawing his attention, the pearl white eyes searching amongst the passing crowds for the origin of the excitement. His lips forming a light smile as he looks at the large red-haired highlander and the smaller Miqo'te. Both arms crossing infront of his chest as he admired her confidence in not losing all of her gil.

Bees.Â
Bees and...trees? ....by moonlight the bees with their knees fall on the leaves of the trees....

Why would a swarm of bees be in front of the carpenters shop at night? Somewhere in the distance, almost sounding underwater someone said something about being seen coming...

Just when Kat was starting to question her indulgence, the roaring in her head silenced. Finally she had settled into it. A brief and mild disappointment ran through her, she would have liked to peak a little longer....but there was the job to be done.

Sandalwood. Honey. It was Moonie, the Miqo'te from afar...coming closer.

Kat smiled in her direction and clapped her hands once, held, and then rubbed them together. "Alllll RIGHT! Now we have a game!"

Purposefully she turned to the left and started to feel for the table and her shells. Maybe a little dramatically.Â

Kat never likes to be a ham, said no one ever.

"Hey! Someone stole my stuff!!"

IncubusManatee · **09-16-2013, 05:25 PM**

The red haired highlander just stared at her for the duration. Bringing a hand to his face for a moment before shaking it slowly. Having watched her fumble about for her shell's and table, grinning still.Â

Leaning forward, one hand moved out to pull up her blindfold for a moment. "Yeah, someone stole your stuff. I got it back for you." Sarcasm. Sarcasm dripping off his word's like sludge off a pier. Trying hard to not burst out laughing at this point. Sputtering every so often due to this.

summerqueen · **09-16-2013, 06:01 PM**

A small hyur woman wandered by with a smile - touring the city's vast market. She looked on at the seeming game and clapped her hands with passing delight. "Oh a game of chance! What's the charge?"

IncubusManatee · **09-16-2013, 06:05 PM**

Finally knocked out of his near-constant-choke-giggling-stop-snort-fit's, he turned to regard the second newest of people joining them in the small group. Looking the woman over slowly with his blue eyes. Still grinning widely as he motioned with his hand to Kat and then nodded. "It's probably just one of her hidden kink's. Playing games blindfolded in public. Such indecency." Very sarcastic-once more.Â

Then turned slightly back and forth-looking between the three Miqo'te now. As one had just announced her presence as well from the crowd, asking about the game itself. "I'm getting swarmed." Somewhat rhetorical remark at this point.

elisan · **09-16-2013, 06:05 PM**

"What good is a game without players hm?" The roll of her R's was only slightly discernible under the soothing rumble of the alto that came off her tongue. Golden eyes moved between the highlander and the sun-kissed one and her antics at the table. The remnants of the fruit were tossed into a waste barrel as she pushed off the lazy lean at the stall next to them and settled her elbows on the table, hands upturned. Her fingernails were filed to delicate claw like tapers and lacquered a burnished gold. She rested her chin in her hands. "How does your game work with the blindfold on?" A glance toward the latest arrivals with mild curiosity.

Nirri · **09-16-2013, 06:07 PM**

Unlike the red haired highlander he was unable to control himself as he laughed in amused at the scene unfolding at the stall. Stepping away from the shadows of the small alley into the baking sun, a few strays of black hair hanging infront of his eyes. "You'd be suprised on who might have stolen your stuff while you were blindfolded, Miqo'te.".

Most of his attireÂ consistingÂ of a green color resembling the forest of Gridania. A single wooden bow hanging on his shoulder as his fingertips drag along the wall to feel the crude heavy wall as the constant smile remains present upon his lips. The white irises shifting as he observes the peculiar individuals that had observed the stall such as the huntress with the nice smell.

IncubusManatee · **09-16-2013, 06:10 PM**

Looking over now to the midlander whom had revealed himself to the group, talking to Kat and having decided to join them, he motioned him over with one hand. "Reinforcements! Join me my brother! I should not be in this battle alone!" Motioning for the guy to come over with one large hand.Â

Giving him a look over quickly, obviously making a few notes of the man's bow. Since it usually denoted a hunter's trade or a professional archer's. Then began to look between everyone once more.

Nirri · **09-16-2013, 06:19 PM**

Noticing the hand movements of the Highlander for him to come closer, his head giving a subtle nod as a form of reply as he stepped closer to the stall. "This'll be fun to see how this entire ordeal proceeds.". His arms crossing infront of his chest as he looks at the large Highlander with an amused expresion.

IncubusManatee · **09-16-2013, 06:22 PM**

"Could not have said it any better myself." Just as cheery as he was a bit before, little to nothing seemed to bother him. Loss, win, he was having a good time. Chuckling again gently as he folded his arms once more over his chest.

Katanyae · **09-16-2013, 06:40 PM**

Kat gasped in mock terror as her blindfold was pulled up.

"Ah! Red, don't DO that to me! The sight of you is enough to kill ANY girl!"

She pulled it back down and blew him a dramatic kiss - M'wah - before her hands started to play with the shells...a kind of pre-game activity as she addressed the new scents and sounds that arrived.

"What's the charge? Well I'll tell you - 50 gil to wager but because you seem like a good girl let's say 20. Find the ball, win the pot! But lose and....dealer takes all!" Said the dealer to the newcomer.

Slow circles....circle eight....

Kat enjoyed the smell of fruit and honey as the other Miqo'te spoke to her. Her voice had a soothing quality to it, but not one she could place, and she could only hope that the Keeper liked her scent (earthy, fresh rain, odd flowers) as much as vice versa.

"Now now Moonie, a good performer never reveals her charms." Katanyae replied. "It's not about what you see so much..."Â

Laaaazy circles...shhhhhp....shhhhhhhp....round and round...

Grinning a sideways grin Kat quickly raised one very tan and slender arm and flexed, addressing the one that smelled like he had a well worn bow. "I'd beat them down!" and without missing a beat went back to sliding her shells.Â

Round and round...Quickening pace...figure eight...

"Where's the ball, Red...hmmm? C'mon...where's the ball...."

The arrival of other people had drastically changed her plans. Sure, on a normal day under normal circumstances she could have pulled this off and taken the highlander for all he had. But...she was 'altered'. And had a blindfold on. And there were too many eyes that she could not be certain were on HER when the little red ball was not to be found under ANY of the shells...

Yes, the payout was great. And she had to wrestle with herself to resist the temptation - after all, she loooooved risk. But this was too much, and to be honest she had grown to like those assembled.Â

So Kat smiled, gave the shells one last roundabout and then raised her hands from the table.

"Where is that little red bastard" she quipped, leaving the blindfold on. Or forgetting it was even there.

elisan · **09-16-2013, 07:04 PM**

The Keeper of the Moon shifted those golden orbs from the entertainment and pleasant earthiness surrounding the sun-born, drawn to the bowman. She assessed him for a good long moment and then nodded. It would seem they shared either a profession or a love of the arrow's way, maybe both. The female human who watched on with earnest joy was glanced over as well - she smelled like vanilla, medicinal herbs..if Seda had to guess, the woman was some kind of healer. The highlander with his blazing red hair and jovial demeanor received a passing grin, the trace of elongated canines flashing.Â

Her attention went back to Kat as she smirked, "Where is it indeed.."

IncubusManatee · **09-16-2013, 07:04 PM**

Not letting himself be absorbed into the quips and banter-he focused on the game at this point. Watching the swift motions of the woman's arms and hands working the shells all over the table. Squinting his eyes gently as he watched them move. Several wrinkles showed along the lengths near his eyes-showing just a bit of his age as he waited. Paid attention for once.

His face was still a stone visage of joy, smile impeccably there and unmovable. A small chuckle escaping his lips at this point. Raising a single hand to rub his chin as he looked at the three lonely shells, now bereft of hands touching them-as Kat had finally let them go.Â

Brushing his right hand over his jacket-he moved over to the table. Looking at all three shells in turn. Naturally wishing to reach for the middle one, right hand stopping right over it. "THIS ONE!" He shouted and suddenly went for the left one with his left hand, shaking the table with his sudden motion. Flipping the left one revealed...NOTHING!

An empty table was only what was there. He made a small sigh, chuckled softly, and then grinned. "Let me guess, it was the middle one."Â

Then quickly flipped the middle one which his right hand had been above during this period. Revealing a red ball!

"Knew it." Is all he said. Grinning gently as he stepped back from the table. "You've won. Fair Maiden." Bowing his head gently at this point.
