Ever have one been so inclined to follow their weary feet to a place of welcome and comfort. A place that one can be themselves and enjoy a pint or two in the grand company of others; Taverns. The streets could be lined with taverns. Each attempting to beckon and call to those that would seek there sweet refuge. All these taverns of course had their local wares of food and beverage. Â Some of them offer quiet. Some offering...//favors//. Others offering â€“well the point was made that whatever suit your fancy it could be found.
Â
Here we find ourselves nestled in the on the southern isles of Limsa, a tavern known of their performance arts tavern is snuggled amongst the warehouses and wards. In fact, the inside resembles an old market ward, gutted and refurbished with a bar to one side and a stage to the other. Large round tables are scattered between, save for a cleared area in the center where a performance or two may take place. As per the owner's taste whole place is draped in red silks and satin, sort of much like her endearing name sake "Red". Â
Â
One. Two. Three.
Â
One. Two. Three.
Â
The most rewarding of the entertainer and bar tender this eve was being free from all of that platemail! Best of all...no metal clunky shoes...There was nothing better than the feeling of bare feet on a cool and smooth surface. Slowly she begins to sway back and forth. A toe delicately pointed arcs about in wide half circle firmly planting behind the lithe and lanky russet headed highlander hyur.
Â
Seemingly from no where a sword is pulled from her side as she begins to twist and twirl it about her body. In a grand flourish one sword becomes two, splitting into identical twin blades as she danced a about in vibrant colors and glints of steel blurring in a motion of sunset colored fabric. The sword dancer continued to twist and twirl about as cold steel would be her partner in this dance.Â Truly a perfect art of meshing something feminine with something bloodthirsty and deadly. She spins in circles creating a art and strange harmony between the blades and her body. Her skirts filling the empty space with each twist and twirl she makes.
Â
One blade pressed flat against her back while the outer isout stretched she twirls about gracefully. In a quick and languid movement her arms switched as she reversed. The balls of her feet were beginning to grow warm from the friction of the calloused skin rapidly moving in circles about the polished hardwood floor.
Â
Just her dance comes to a finish she ends with one of herblades held out and pointed to the new patron while the other raised high over her head. Panting and out of breath she grins.
Â

"Evening..." Shedrew in a ragged breath and smiled. "Welcome to Tavern Soliloquy"

***Alothia*** · **07-17-2013, 02:34 PM**

Alothia walks into the familiar setting...well, familiar now, a smile on her face, and seeming much lighter than usual. Her pink hair was fluffed out, and her ears twitched a bit as she looked around the tavern, alighting on Abai and her swords. She grinned and clapped loudly for the woman, "Very nice, Abai! One of these days I'll have to come in and see you do the whole thing!" She chuckled before meandering over to the bar and taking a seat on one of the worn stools in front of it.

She pulled a small gil pouch from her bag and set it on the bar, moving the coins around inside so that they could clank together softly. She rested her elbow on the bar, and her hand in her chin, gazing at the various liquids behind the counter, her eyes weighing each one before she would make her choice.

"Anything on special tonight, Abai?" Alothia inquired. "I don't know what I'm in the mood for...and I don't much feel like a Tonberry's Torch, although those are fantastic." She waited for the woman to return to the bar before making any final decisions, and instead just sat there and watched Abai move around the tavern.

Azthran · **07-17-2013, 02:56 PM**

The young male pushed his way by the door and stopped to blink at Abai after he entered. Today he was only wearing a pair of shorts, some sandals, and a spear hung from his shoulder by a small rope as he patted some sweat from his face with an old rag. "Uhm..." Was all the lad could say before he hurried over an empty stool at the bar.

U'zhan pulled out a few gil to pay for a drink and just set themÂ in frontÂ of him before he noticed Alothia. "Oh! Hello Alothia, it's good to see you again." He gave the familiar woman a small wave.

***Alothia*** · **07-17-2013, 04:33 PM**

She turned away from watching Abai to the newcomer who walked through the door, smiling broadly as he took a seat at the bar.

"Heya U'zhan! How are things? Still being chased by the ladies?" She raised her eyebrow at him and chuckled softly. "Good to see you again. Care to join me for a drink?" She motioned to the bar. "Once Abai gets over here, I'll buy you one. You can tell me how things have been going since I last saw you."

Abaigeal · **07-17-2013, 04:43 PM**

Taking a deep inhaled to attempt to regulate her breathingthe russet headed hyur beamed with delight to the cotton candy tresses miqo'te lass. "Aye!! An' Perhaps just maybe Ah can con vince ye to join me, aye?" She winked and shrugged as she lowered her arms regain some sort of normal stance."What have ye been up to lately...Ah missed seeing ye fayce for a wee bit" Emerald orbs look up to the door that opened once again as a starlight haired maleqo'te entered. She waved with a free hand before putting the two blades back into one unit and securing them back under her skirt.
Â
"Mm...Sour Red? It's always onspecial. Ah think Red is trying to tell me something about me choice in poison as its buy one get one." She pursed her lips in jest as she made her way about the floor with a step that could make a ballerina cry. Hmph! Pity Red wasn't around to see it as much as she picked on her. She mused to herself as slipped in behind the cherry wood lacquered bar top reaching up a hand to pluck a glass or two.
Â
"So...no Tonberry,aye. Ah supposeye order it enough ye can get tired of it! Hmm.. ye like the sweetness to it so how does a...CactuarÂ sound. It has melonand apple and cranberry flavors to it. Or maybe a Desert Rose? That seems to be a favorite of a few too...i think the Rolanberry cream tends to compliment the tequila rather well. " She nodded placing her palms flat on the bartop looking between the two.
Â
"Good to see ye know Alothia. She'sone of me favorite lasses!" She beamed an extra particularly sunny smile to the young male before nodding to him once more. "What can Ah fetch ye tonight lovie, If a recall ye liked the Brittle Bark,Aye?"
Â
Her left foot lightly hooked behind her right behind the baras she leaned forward a bit making herself a bit more comfortable. "So...Lad. What have ye been up to...lookin' like it's been a hard day's work by the looks of ye."

***Alothia*** · **07-17-2013, 04:50 PM**

Alothia grinned back at Abai as she spoke, tail swishing back and forth happily. She did enjoy listening to Abai chatter. She was a good waitress, the kind you could tell your life story to, if you weren't careful. "I think I'll have a Cactuar, Abai. And I'm sorry I haven't been around too recently. You remember that man who came here looking for Para and I? That situation got a little out of hand..." she stopped herself before divulging too much information. "Needless to say, that's not a problem anymore, and I'm free to walk around and visit you at my leisure now~"

She beamed at the woman as she spoke to U'zhan and made her drink. She placed enough coin on the bar for both her and U'zhan's drinks, as well as a hefty tip as well. It never did any good to stiff your bartender. "You think you could teach me to dance like that Abai?" she inquired nonchalantly. "How would I look with some flaming torches spinning around?" She posed and chuckled, shaking her head at the thought.

Azthran · **07-17-2013, 05:05 PM**

"Hmm? Oh! Yeah the Brittle Bark stuff was good..." He paused a moment to look at both women as they talked of dancing and took notice that Alothia had pulled out quite a bit of gil.

It also seemed that the lad was too worn out to worry about thoughts of women even after Alothia brought up the conversation. Instead he shrugged to Abai and leaned the spear against the bar. "Spent most of the day training. I finally figured out what weapon I like best so I thought I'd get started is all." His tail swayed a bit behind him as he spoke and his ears wiggled a bit when he was finished.

Abaigeal · **07-17-2013, 05:15 PM**

With a concerned look upon her face she looked to the woman."Aye...Ah do..." She chewed the side of her cheek recalling the strange dark haired short man that questioned about the couple. Alothia knew she wasn't one to pry...at lest not about this affair that seemed to be...complex. "Well Ah'm glad Ah can see ye! Ah certainly hope that Strawberry makes his way by too!" She chuckled while holding her mid-section lightly.

Setting to grabbing the ingredients she tilted her head side to side as if a song played in her mind. "Cactuar it is!" She sing songed to the imaginary tune as she placed it front of the Lass.Â Slipping her handover the gil she nodded politely.

"Ah most certianly can! As long as ye are willing to put forth the hard work" She nodded agian her short mop of hair lightly falling into her face. Sweeping her bangs of to the side she added. " Ah think ye'd be...//HOT//" Her tone flat as she deadpanned Alothia before breaking out into a fit of giggles.

"Oh that was terrible!!! Ah'm sorry!" She waved her hand about nonchalantly before turning to U'zhan. Â 'Brittle bark itis!!" She beamed reaching down for the bottle and pulling it pour the sweet wine into a glass. "Well This seems to be a good reward for a hard day of trainin' Aye?" She mused pushing the glass toward him gently as not to spill. "So how ye like it? Ah'm partial to the blade meself..." She added peeking emerald hues out from thick lashes.
Â

Paradyme · **07-17-2013, 05:19 PM**

The door was pressed open to look around the tavern with amethyst orbs. "Ah... Freedoooooooom~" He grinned, clutching at his side as he hobbled forwards towards Alothia with a soft smile. "Ah, I thought you came down here~" He cooed as he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her gently. "I missed you~" He grinned, moving to take a seat beside her and addressing Abai with a bright grin.

"Ah, Abai. It's good to see you! How are you, this fine day?" He asked all too happily. He was happy. So very, very happy. A blink as he noted Alothia's drink. It wasn't... The usual... What. "Whatcha got there, honey?" He asked, quirking a brow in curiosity, before returning his gaze to Abai for but a moment, "Ah, Tonberry's Torch, please." He smiled, awaiting her answer.

Azthran · **07-17-2013, 05:42 PM**

"I like the extra reach it offers." He shrugged as he brought the glass to his lips to taste the sweet wine with a little smile. The lad would be considered pretty tall for his kind and his muscles were already well toned though he was still on the slender side of builds. "I've trained a bit with the sword and axe too but I find it easier to move and strike when I can keep my enemy a decent distance from my face." He grinned a bit before taking another sip of the wine.

Abaigeal · **07-17-2013, 05:46 PM**

"Why what do ye know! Speak of the Devil ands shall appear..or perhaps its the Strawberry?" She playfully teased as she looked to the Red headed hyur a grin plastered over her lips. She noted the hobble in his step and frowned a bit. "Ye alright there..." She figured it had to do with their...complication? Yes. The complication. She wasn't looking for a full explanation. Especially if it was a touchy subject. Just her caring nature of sorts and if there was something she could do to provide comfort if she could whether it was ice or some strong spirits.
Â

'Ah'm well though thank ye for asking'...Are ye sure ye Just want a Ton-Torch...Ah can make it Flammin' ye might thank me for it later!" She was partially jesting partially serious.

She looked to U'zhan as he spoke and nodded her head. "Ah see...gives new meaning to touch it with a ten foot pole...that is the phrase, Aye?" She cast a comical look before shrugging. "Hmm...trained with the sword ye say...mind if Ah pester ye sometime for a friendly spar?" She grinned but a hint of blush crawled into her cheeks. She didn't quite want to admit that she was enjoying the sword play almost as much as dancing these days.

Alothia turned and gave Para a kiss when he came in, glancing to her drink and then blushing a bit. "It's a....Green....Pudding...." She nodded, "Yes. That's what it is. It's quite good."

She patted the barstool next to her for Para to sit on, and frowned at his limp. She'd have to hit him with healing again. If that didn't work...she didn't know what she would do.

She tilted her head to listen to U'zhan talk about the lance and nodded, "I do like the lance myself...if I have to use a weapon that is. Much happier with magic though." She grinned as Abai propositioned him to a spar, "Oooh. I'd like to see that."

Azthran · **07-17-2013, 06:08 PM**

He tilted his head some and an ear twitched as he thought over Abai's request. "A spar? Well I could use the practice but I'd rather use my spear over a sword if that's alright." A bit of his usual timid nature around women was starting to show once again. He let his tail swish around while his sipped from his glass. "Would be good practice for you too I'd think since chances are you won't always be fighting an enemy that is holding a sword."

Jijinji · **07-17-2013, 06:21 PM**

Aegon slowly walks into the tavern and looks around "Finally some time to relax and enjoy a drink."Â He said to himself with a slight smile, he then walks to an open stool at the edge of the bar and sits down. Aegon looked around again and realized he didn't know anyone as he had never been here before. He then decided to look at the arrangement of bottles and drinks behind the bar.Â

"From the sounds of it the Tonberry's Torch seems to be popular..." He says to himself as he thinks about it.Â He then pulls out his bag ofÂ GilÂ after deciding on what to drink. Aegon looks to the bartender and saysÂ "I'll take Tonberry's Torch." with a slight smile.

Abaigeal · **07-17-2013, 06:34 PM**

A small chuckle and almost a scoff bubbled from her lips as she shook her head. "Green... Pudding?" She mused and let the two converse a bit biting back the chuckles.
Â
"What? See me and U'zhan Spar? Ah suppose it would be a sight..." She nodded her head looking to the starlight haired maleqo'te. 'Depends, really if the Lad has performance anxiety or not!" She smirked andÂ grinned like the cat that ate the canary briefly.

"Far enough! Ah suppose ye are right. Ah don't mind at All. Jus...promise me ye wont go easy on me cause Ah'm a Lass Ay-" Her sentence cut off as she heard the faint sound of the door open. Her emerald hued gaze looks to the new patron with delight.
Â

"Welcome to tavern Soliloquy!" Her voice it's usual inviting and non-fake tone as she waved a hand and beckoned him closer. " Aaha! Well its certainly one of the favorites for those that prefer us to hold the spirits. Quite nice ifÂ ye ask me." She nodded reaching over she pulled free a MENUÂ and passed it off to the lad. Â

She pursed her lips as she looked him over a gentle smile still lingering. "Ah don't think Ah've seen ye here before...not that it matter Lad! All are welcome, So...tell us What brings ye through! Business or pleasure?" She leaned on the bar top before the new comer awaiting final confirmation of his drink, just in case he changed his mind.
