Andralyn Thatcher lifts a shoulder, "It doesn't really matter one way or another, it is what it is."
Johnathan Winters smirks, then blinks as the lalafell approaches. "Hmm..."
Rurutani Sasatani looks at you in shock!
Andralyn Thatcher cants her head, offering a warm smile,"Hello, friend!"
Rurutani Sasatani: You.....we need to talk.
Rurutani Sasatani looks deadly serious though his face is mostly hidden by the cowl.
Andralyn Thatcher lifts a brow, motioning to the chair beside her, "Oh? Please, by all means, do sit down."
Andralyn Thatcher: "You seem troubled... delayed regret in our services?"
Johnathan Winters eyes the lalafell curiously, his gazetaking in every last ilm of the small man.
Rurutani Sasatani scans the area carefully before taking the seat offered. "Has nothing to do with that night.....or it does...but...hold on...let me explain."
Andralyn Thatcher folds her hands in her lap, sitting back in her chair as her legs cross at the knee, waiting.
Rurutani Sasatani leans in and whispers, tapping the table lightly as he looks at her. "I was threatened. Because I came here. The man who did...he all but warned me to stay out of Limsa and away from you. Now why should I have to worry about that? That was a one time meet..."
Â
Andralyn Thatcher 's brow pulls together as she listens,"I can't begin to imagine why that would happen... Did you gather the man's name?"
Rurutani Sasatani shakes his head. He was big...wore a hat so I couldn't see his face. He meant business. Told me to stay away from here or there'd be trouble. I wasn't even thinking of coming back...was headed to Coerthas...he caught me on the road outside Ul'dah." He slams the table with his palm and curses. "Damn it.....I just want some peace..."
Andralyn Thatcher 's tongue moves over her teeth behind pursed lips, "Ul'dah, hm? And you're certain this has nothing to do with you? A scorned lover jealous over your choice of free time activity?"
Rurutani Sasatani shakes his head. "No....hespecifically mentioned this organization. His threat....it came because I was a client here. And no....if it was a scorned lover, it'd only be one and she'd cut my throat herself should she be so inclined."
Andralyn Thatcher moved her gaze to the mug in front of her,her foot beginning to flip in irritation under the table. "Hm." She gave John a sidelong look, "That's very unfortunate, sir. You do have my deepest apologies..." She trailed off as if mulling over her options.
Johnathan Winters shakes his head, "Melkire's property,not mine. Perhaps Bennett, if he's not otherwise busy at home..."
Rurutani Sasatani leans in and holds his mouth in a stern grimace. "I took a big risk coming here....whatever you think of doing...I need to be involved. I didn't appreciate the threat and I won't be barred from somewhere because someone's a got a bug up their arse about this business." He sounded frustrated.
Andralyn Thatcher nods, "Yes... " She turned her gaze back to the lalafell, "I am truly sorry that you seem to have been pulled into the middle of a small rivalry of sorts. "How childish of them to try and strong arm my clients. Tactless, pathetic..."
Johnathan Winters perks a brow at the lalafell, a small grin toying with his lips. "Feisty..."
Andralyn Thatcher grins and cants her head, "Do you fancy yourself capable in a fight?"
Rurutani Sasatani nods. "I was a hair from taking the Sultansworn trials in Ul'dah before I withdrew. I can handle a bow or a sword."
Andralyn Thatcher nods, "Good, very good." She shifts in her chair slightly, "Would you consider yourself a sword for hire then? You see... my success seems to have put a bee in the bonnets of a few other, lets say... lower quality houses."
Andralyn Thatcher: "They've taken to spreading nasty lies in regards to my companions and myself.. and now wish to scare off clients. I can't have it.. and I won't. This will not be tolerated."
Â
Johnathan Winters blinks, "Client to muscle, Lady Grace? Seems a bit... backward."
Rurutani Sasatani nods and a grin forms on his face for the first time. "Aye....I'm currently...unemployed. I could use the coin...but I care more about being able to move about freely without having to wonder when that man will decide Limsa isn't enough."
Andralyn Thatcher smirks at the comment, "A skilled sword is a skilled sword, and a living client is one that can come back to a warm bed and familiar face whenever they wish."
Johnathan Winters shrugs, nodding to both of their statements. "Could always use more, I suppose."
Andralyn Thatcher nods, "Of course. Do you spend much time in Gridania?"
Rurutani Sasatani nods. "Aye...was my home for months as I trained with Archer's guild there."
Andralyn Thatcher nods, "Very good. We have a small situation arising there that I would be inclined to hire you for as well, but we're still gathering our information on that front. What of your prices?"
Rurutani Sasatani tilts his head a bit. "Hadn't thought of that. I'm fine. This one will do for free just because it's personal. Maybe later I'll consider the price."
Andralyn Thatcher smiles, "Your help is appreciated,but I do feel the need to contract is a necessary obligation, though one we can consent to later, certainly. In the mean time, I can offer you assistance, should you need it if you'd like." She moves her hand to a pocket on her belt, lifting from it a pearl and places it in front of him, "In case my friends decide to give you any more trouble."
Andralyn Thatcher lifts a shoulder, "You're free to take it or leave it, but I can guarantee assistance if it's requested in Thanalan or La Noscea."
Johnathan Winters nods at her words, looking to the lalafell with a smirk.
Rurutani Sasatani reaches out and slides the pearl to his own pocket and nods. "Aye....thank you Grace."
Andralyn Thatcher nods, "Thank you, friend. " She sits up, leaning into the table, "Can I offer you a night with one of our companions?" She smiled sweetly, "It's the least I can do for your offer of help."
Johnathan Winters smirks and crosses his arms, looking out at the rest of the patrons.
Â
Rurutani Sasatani chuckles softly and shakes his head."I'm afraid not tonight. While I do enjoy the pleasure of the ladies, I am afraid I have other issues to attend to tonight. I'd prefer to mitigate the risk of something happening by getting away from Limsa for the night. Though I appreciate the offer.....'tis always one that I enjoy." He grins and nods.
Andralyn Thatcher nods, bowing her head slightly, "Very wise. Consider it an offer that will stand until your next convenience. "
Johnathan Winters glances over his shoulder with a smallfrown, mumbling to himself, "Foggy night, tonight..."
Rurutani Sasatani nods and grins. "My thanks....not something I'm likely to pass up next time."
Andralyn Thatcher: "I'm happy to hear it. Would you like an escort in your travels? Another blade to aid you on your way to your next destination?"
Rurutani Sasatani shakes his head. "I got in alone...I'll get out alone. Though again...I appreciate the offer. I will be in touch. And when you need me, let me know."
Andralyn Thatcher nods, "I will. Thank you again."
Â
Rurutani Sasatani: And if you find anything out about ou rmutual problem....please let me know. I was not prepared last time....I'll be ready next time.
Andralyn Thatcher nods, "I can only surmise the man that you encountered works for a fellow named Tabart. He himself has never been a danger, but I fear he has someone behind him pulling strings. I will let you know more as needed.â€
Rurutani Sasatani nods. "I appreciate it. I'll take my leave now. I look forward to hearing from you again. Stay safe." He glances to Johnathan and nods. "You as well."
Johnathan Winters looks back to the lalafell and offers a small bow, "A pleasure, sir."
"Safe travels." Andralyn bows courteously to Rurutani Sasatani.
Rurutani Sasatani: You as well, Grace.
Johnathan Winters smirks, then blinks as the lalafell approaches. "Hmm..."
