Glayp'neir

Jian finally wakes up from the ruckus, the pain in his leg has returned from the herbal mix he applied has worn off. He struggles getting out of bed, stretching and yawning out. He feels a bit worn out but in general he's doing okay.

He scratches his head and puts on his light armour, then slipping into his shoes. The noise then catches his interest and he proceeds to go and look what's going on, leaving his room. He walks in to everyone being present, including another face he hasn't seen before. In his quite tired state, he doesn't seem to bothered, plus, it seems like a norm to have new people come in almost every week.

"Good morning everyone, and... Hello there", he adresses Frazil directly, "We two have not met, not that I recall, so it's nice to meet you. Name's Jian, I am one of the people that are part of this bunch. If you have any questions about me, ask away. I also would like to hear about how you ended up in our... Let's say home!"

He then reaches his hand out to her, wanting to shake hands, smiling a bit tiredly.

She hears out Frazil's story, which describes the one named "Shyft" that she mentioned when they first met. This whole talk of other worlds and void spaces doesn't exactly perplex her so much as it makes her think that things are getting weirder by the day. First the previous night, Doc telling them about his little secret and then Frazil showing up again, this time without the water-based abilities she used when they first met. She smiles at her, brushing a lock of hair from her face with her silver hand.

"Well, I'd say you're welcome to stay. I'd imagine you don't have any legal tender to use, so you'd best follow us around. Learn the culture you know? Its not like you're a completely alien being of incomprehensible ability and inconspicuous vastness." She says, and looks at RD.

"I do have some things I wanted to take care of in the markets, maybe we could take Frazil with us to learn the lay of the land so-to-speak." She says as well, and looks back at Frazil, giving a glare that asks 'Would That be ok?'

Lox let a soft sigh pass his lips as the strange woman was allowed into the house, and then watched as she strolled in, and took a corner seat for herself. Once she began to command the room's silence with her story, Lox left. He walked back upstairs for the shower he intended to get before his curiosity had brought him downstairs, it appeared he had finished just in time, as upon coming out of the shower fully dressed, he saw RD coming up to use the shower. Lox gave a quick, silent wave to him before returning to the room they had shared to grab his backpack, though decided against the cloak, and left it on the floor where it was before throwing one of the pack's straps over his shoulder and making his way back downstairs.

Once downstairs he stuck around for the tail end of the new girl's story, once she had finished he began making his way past some of the others and towards the door when RD came back down with an announcement about going into town. Lox chuckled under his breath briefly before speaking up. "Well I was just planning on heading out there. Mind if I tag along?"

While Jericho is in the kitchen making his tea, he is only sort of listening to what is going on. He sips some of his tea but quickly puts it down when he hears that this new lady is from another world. "From another world? This could help me out alot. Gosh knows what kind of science and medical knowledge that world could have. Maybe she has the answers to the questions I have, He then gets up and walks over to the group.

"Good afternoon everyone. I figured now would be the best time to introduce myself to you all. I am sure The good Doctor didn't tell you my name. The name is Jericho Atrium." He does a quick bow, then makes his way to Frazil. He nudges Jian out of the way so he can be in front of her. When Frazil looks at him, one of the first things she notices is that he has bright silver eyes. The second is that this man seems to hold himself much differently then the man she meet a few hours ago. "You wanted The good Doctor to take a look at you? He is away at the moment but I can take a look and make sure everything is as it should be." Jericho then holds his hand out so he can help her up onto her feet. "If you fallow me hun, I will to the check up in a more private area."

He then turns and noticed Rd. He smiles at seeing him. "Richard. So good to see you again. It has been many cycles since we last saw each other, It was a shame we split to begin with but such as life. We will have to catch up when you return from your trip to the market." He then looks at the only other girl in the room. "She shouldn't go out, not just yet. If she is considered out her well being, then that needs to be addressed before she 'learns the lay of the land'. If there is something wrong with her and it goes unnoticed, she could die. I can not let that happen. It's for the greater good. If her health is good when I am done checking on her, I will bring her to you myself." He then turns to look at Frazil. He is smiling softly to show that he really does care about her wellbeing. "Lets get going hun. The faster I check you out, the faster you can go out and have fun in this new world." He still has his hand out for her to grab.

Everyone gathered to greet the lady at the door in the absurd outfit. Jack emptied his flask, doing his best to pretend there was actual rum in it, and made his way down the stairs, huffing under his breath as he approached Frazil. There was a stern look on his face.

*Sigh*

"Before I introduce myself, I want you to see things from my perspective. I've been locked away in a castle, attacked by meat cleaver wielding undead, fought a demon, discovered that I am not human, become haunted by the ghost of my deceased brother, got arrest, fought of living breath vampiric test subjects, and witnessed a tear in the fabric of reality. That...m'lady...was in the past two days. Now, you, with your bizarre name and horrendous fashion sense, show up at our door to tell everyone that you are from a separate universe. I know with out a doubt that the trauma of the past events have shattered my psyche because I am actually willing to believe your whole story down to the part where you claim to be 100% fluid instead of the average 50 to 75%...no...just no...Gah, I'm no longer going to acknowledge your presence unless...unless...uh...unless your universe has rock n roll, a 2000 year old music genre, based on multiverse theory, the probability of that is 1 in infinity.

"ACDC FTW"

"Personally, I'm more of an ABBA man myself...gah, stop getting me distracted!!!...wait, did you make me say that part about rock n roll?"

"Whaaat, I was curious."

"She claims to be from another universe and thats the only thing you're 'curious about?!"

"Shit in this universe is already as weird as it can get, your words, not mine."

Sharpe shuts the door after Frazil comes in and leans against it, arms crossed, keeping a wary eye on Jericho. He knows that the man works for a supposed "Greater Good" but a lot of extremists and bad people tend to work with that in mind as well. He mouths something to Frazil.

You don't have to get checked by him if you don't feel comfortable with him.

"I have some things that require my attention, but I don't think I'm going to stick with the group since it's a job. Investigation specifically." He positions his head a bit higher than normal.

"Rich," he yells, "Let me know when you're done in the shower."

There were almost no questions. Many of the people pretty much shrugged off her presence and only half listened to her story, instead going about their own business as though she had just stopped by to deliver the paper. Frazil was a bit perplexed. She did get a bit of attention and introductions, and she made a point of returning the sentiment, repeating her name, shaking hands, nodding, or waving as the situation warranted, generally making sure that those people knew she appreciated the greetings.

She stands and takes Jericho's hand, smiling coyly at his obvious charm. I apologize Airgetlam, but I believe the doctor is correct. As was my intention, I would like to get a checkup before I go gallivanting around, though I would be happy to afterwards. In the mean time, being the only other girl in the room, I would actually appreciate it if you would accompany us during the examination. She turns her gaze to Jericho, For propriety's sake. I'm sure you understand.

She then turns toward Jack, her hand still in Jericho's. Finally! Someone with the sense to wonder what the hell is going on. Congratulations, your last two days have pretty well matched my last 6 years, give or take the odd vacation week. As for acknowledging my presence, I think you will find it hard to pretend I don't exist, as I obviously am standing here. However; to answer your, frankly, odd curiosity: Yes, we have "Rock and Roll" though we typically just shorten it to Rock. Novarock has actually become a favorite of many, though I'm more of a dance girl myself. Novamix is fun, but I enjoy baseline EDM too.

After throwing her backpack over one shoulder, Frazil extends her other hand in Airgetlam's direction, to help her up and encourage her to follow. Please? Hopefully it won't take long. I feel fine, I just want to be sure.

"I'm all set." Richard calls out to Sharpe as he ties up his boots, finishing his preparations to go out.

RD then responds to Air's question, "If ya want i can wait and we can all head down town togetha', but i was planning on repairin' Jian's knife today, so imma be in town fer awhile... Plenty ah time if ya wanna show 'er 'round I guess, but i'll probably split off to get this done once we get around the smithy. Same to you, Lox. I'm fine with ya comin' down, but that's mah plan man."

He then turns to regard Jericho, "... Mmm can't say the same 'ere. Not long enough if ya ask me." He gives the man a rather harsh glare, "Hopefully we won't 'ave a repeat ah what happened last time, eh?"  Richard turns away and walks to the door leading out to the front of the house, "I'll be outside..." and closes the door behind him as he exits.

Being sort of pushed away by... the doctor? Jericho? Jian doesn't even know at this point, he just feels a bit of a distress. He never was the kind of man that was fond with people pushing others aside to force in their attention. He also doesn't really understand what that whole thing with a new life and the doc being absent is all about, it all seems like... Jericho or well... the doc is just turning insane, at least in Jian's eyes. He leaves it at that and scratches his head, walking over to RD.

"If you give me about five to ten minutes, I'm also up for coming along, if that's fine that is.", he says to him, his voice clearly showing that he is quite confused about that re-introduction from Jericho.

Airgetlam looks at Frazil's hand, and then to her face, then to Jericho. She doesn't exactly trust him but if Frazil wants to get this out of the way, then that's fine. She'd much sooner trust her than Jericho anyway.

"Ok. I will come." She says simply and takes Frazil's hand with her silver one. As she walks she decides to inform Frazil on what plans she had.

"So um, I'm going to basically be out clothes shopping, I need something more practical than what I currently wear. I kinda question what I was even thinking when I decided that." she says, stroking the back of her head.

"So where you come from, is it nice? Bigger than Recudor at least? Maybe bigger than Global? That's the capitol by the way. I can get you a map of Recudor later from my bag actually, I sketch out more of it the more i explore. I'd imagine your world has a lot going for it, or you have a lot of strange things. I kinda wonder if the average person is like one of us or if they're like you.... sorry if my questions are annoying also."

"Yeah sounds good to me, I was planning on breaking off and grabbing some supplies for myself anyway." Lox gave a small nod before reaching for the doorknob so he could wait outside, though he abruptly stopped as he overheard Jack talking to...or ore like talking AT the new girl. He stared at the man with an obviously perplexed look on his face for an extended time. Music? Really? That was the big takeaway from the new girl? That was the information that would acquire his trust? Lox let out a soft sigh before letting go of the thought and stepping aside so RD could exit the house, he gave a quick wave to Sharpe as he followed RD in exiting the house to wait outside, speaking to Sharpe as he walked out the door. "Good luck with the job Sharpe."

Once outside Lox removed his backpack, placing it on the ground next to him as he leaned his back to a wall a few feet away from RD. A few moments of silence passed before he let out a soft sigh, quickly following up by muttering in a tone low enough to keep quiet, but loud enough for RD to hear. "I don't trust her..."

Jericho frowns at what RD said. "Some people just cannot let the past go I guess..." He looks and sees that Frazil's other hand is being held by Airgetlam. He lets the hand he is holding go. He would rather not make a chain of people to walk up the stairs. "Please fallow me and we can get this check up done and over with.

He walks up the stairs and opens the door. He makes a motion with his hand that tells the ladies to go in first. After a moment Hitomi comes running out from under the bed and rushes down stairs. Jericho jumps out of the way. "What the heck...Oh...That must be the feral creature that Atrium found and took." He watches the little girl run down the stairs and out of his sight to do whatever she has planed. He then goes back to guesting the girl to go in first.

The pressure was really getting to Jack. He felt somewhat embarrassed about the outburst at the inter-dimensional being.

"OOh ooh ooh, ask if her universe has anime!"

"I'll never understand how you can be so calm when the world has been going to shite over a couple of days...then again that statement can apply to almost any one in this house."

Jack makes his way up the stairs, just barely dodging Hitomi as she scurried down it.

"Uh...hello there...Jericho was it? A while back, I bought an encyclopedia of mythical creatures for the Doctor. Would you know where he might have placed it?"

Sharpe nods to RD and goes upstairs, undressing and getting into the shower. After a few minutes, he gets out and looks at himself in the mirror, cleaning himself up. He gets himself back to looking decent and walks out, then into his room to change into his spare shirt and pants, and pulls on his webbing, affixing his sword to his belt, and this new pistol to his hip, tucked into his belt since he has yet to find another holster. He'll need to find some ammunition for it and take it to a protraction worker or smith to have it examined, so he can load and fire it without having it go off in his face. He puts his coat on and puts his older pistol in it's holster, the radar device as well in his coat pocket. He puts his had on, fixing it so it is facing the correct way and walks down the stairs to the main room.

He waits around, partially to keep an eye on things, partially because there's really no rush for him to just get out. He sits down, putting his old pistol out on the table they have, and the revolver alongside it, looking about the weapon some more, comparing it to his old magnum.

Frazil Steps quickly into the room, practically dragging Airgetlam behind her in order to out pace Jericho. In the few seconds they have while Jericho is watching the girl that ran by, she whispers to Air: I don't think your friends like me much.

She finally lets go of Airgetlam's hand, and pulls the other strap of her backpack onto her shoulder. In response to the earlier comment, she responds" You are correct about my financial situation. I was hoping you knew of a way I could make some, at least to eat on. A breakfast of energy bars isn't very satisfying, and at the moment that's all I have for lunch as well. She smiles sweetly at Air, and continues. The only immediate idea I had was trading my services for food at a local charity... either that, or hope that salt is as rare here as it was when my world was this primitive.

As she talks, she continues into the room, awaiting instructions from Jericho.

"Do whatevea ya want Jian..." Richard answers nonchalantly with a wave as he exits the building to wait outside.

Almost immediately after he leans against the house with an exasperated sigh, waiting for whomever would be joining; Lox exits the house as well, wishing Sharpe luck on his 'job'.

"Sorry bout' the door mate, didn't know you were behind me." He apologizes for the unintended rudeness, to which Lox, merely nodded while placing his knapsack on the ground next to him. The two men wait in silence for a short while, until Lox lets out a sigh and mutters feelings of mistrust towards the 'newcomer'.

RD chuckles before saying, "Well its good to hear not ere'body 'ere is so willin' ta instantly trust anyone who saunters on in thru' the door, but ya ran into er' before right, when she apparently 'arrived' no?" Did she give ya any bad vibes back then? I'll be frank wit' ya, i dunno where she's apparently from 'nd ta be completely honest, if she's tellin' the truth about bein' completely water before, then i dun know what she IS. I'm not sure if that state of bein' is common where she 'ail's from, and 'er story was so vague... Fer all we know this 'Shyft...'" he said while quoting with both hands, "... Had a damn good reason fer getting rid of 'er... She honestly hasn't explained much of anything ta us and i'm not sure i wanna even assist her in getting back if i'm not sure helping her is the right thing ta do. That's up ta her though, i weigh people's actions a bit more heavily than i do words..."  He glances at the taller man with a smirk, remembering Lox's tale of literally leaping into the situation he was now in. "...I'll keep an eye on er' for a while and make a decision later."

He pauses as he turns his gaze from Lox, skyward, "I'll admit i'm a bit worried. Things have been going nuts here lately, too many coincidences ere' in Recudor, and now this. At this point i'm getting a bit numb to it. I mean Christ man, other worlds?! Jesus... And i have a feeling its only going to get weirder." Despite saying he's worried RD has a mischievous grin on his face like a kid in a toy shop who's just seen exactly what he wants.

It passes quickly though, knowing damn well that the next few days were already going to be rough, and now Richard needs to pay attention to yet another newcomer. He honestly didn't completely trust Lox either, the man's back story was ambiguous at best, and this could honestly just be an attempt to create discord within an already barely functional gathering.

Richard brings his gaze back to Gaea, then returns it to the tall man next to him, "We've all got our strange tics though, right mate? Plenty a' reasons ta barely trust even the people standin' right next ta us." Not really making an effort to let the man know he was still 'under the scope' as well.

Jian tils his head at RD, quite an unexpected response. He decides to tag along as he has no point in staying here, sitting around. He might have a few thigns he wants to attend himself aswell. Entering his room again he slips into his shoes, grabbing his backpack aswell. He runs his fingers through is medium-long hair, then scratching his stubble, getting rid of all that would be a good idea too.

He stretches once he is geared up and goes to leave the house aswell, a rather slow pace he's having, and his leg was not dealt with either, so he has to go a bit slower for now. The doc offered him to look at it yesterday, but with his... Jian still doesn't know what exactly is going on, that won't happen, he'll have to consult someone else for that or let it heal out normally.

"Can someone explain...", he starts once he left the building, "...what is wrong with the doc? He seemed so... I don't even know"
Jian can't tell if it's magic, the doc losing it, or something random happening to him causing him to talk the way he did. But in general he just wants an explanition for now to understand why all of that happened the way it did a few minutes ago.

"Also, uhm, I overheard you're getting my dagger repaired, which is nice to hear, that means I can get back to carv-... Actually, I should use a different knife for that", he interrupts himself, realizing it would just wear out the knife again.

Airgetlam nods and checks the door to make sure Jericho is far enough out of earshot.

"We haven't been together long anyway, but given a lot of weirdness has happened as of late..." she says, trailing off as Jericho enters the room. She simply nods, hoping Frazil knew where she was going with her string of thought.

She watches him a bit nervously, she has yet to really observe him besides his behavior downstairs. She looks back to Frazil.

"Well we do a variety of things, mostly I would say what suits our talents. I have a lot of abilities and tools that lend myself to stealthy jobs, Rich is a burly guy with a number of melee weapons, so combat is his forte. I imagine you must have combat experience, since you were in conflict with this Shyft guy. So in the middle of the market area there is a bounty board run by the local militia guild. They don't really have any ties to the city guard so they basically handle freelance work. Is that sort of what you did where you come from? O-oh also, we use coinage here, a system of copper, silver, gold, and platinum, ascending in that order. I assume you have maybe a similar currency system?"

Lox nods along as RD speaks, waiting to chime in when he won't interrupt. He couldn't help but agree on the issue of the others being a little too trusting. He knew he probably should be one of the last people casting judgment due to his recent arrival to the group, but he knew he had nothing to hide. His story may have been a bit thin, but all he really left out was his family, and the fire. For all he knew, this girl could be making anything up, the way she walked into the room and commanded the attention of everyone around didn't sit right with him. Not to mention having been around to see her water form in person. "Yeah, Air, Doc and I were present for her arrival. It was less than pleasant. When she first appeared she was in fact made of water, I saw that with my own eyes, and to be honest, was why I made this..." Lox leans down to remove the thick aluminum disc from his backpack, showing of the inscribed rune briefly before returning it to his pack. "It's a pure aluminum lightning rune, very dangerous for the person who uses it, but I imagine also equally dangerous for a being made of water." Lox kept his explanation short, as he knew RD would most likely have no interest in his talk of runes. "You're right about that Shyft guy too, we have no way of knowing whether he is genuinely a bad person. Her story could be a cover for her to just gather intel in our world... I mean I'm pretty sure she wasn't wearing that military outfit last I saw her."

Lox let out a slight chuckle as RD pointed out his skepticism of Lox in so many words, he let his head rest against the wall he was leaning against, his eyes shifting upwards towards the sky as he spoke. "Yeah...message received. I guess I shouldn't really be pointing fingers right now. Been here for a night and I'm already shoving the attention onto the new girl..." Lox lets his voice trail off a bit as Jian exits the house and begins asking about the Doc and his new personality. Since Lox had no real interaction with the new personality yet he shrugged a bit before giving what little info he knew. "The doc pretty much just let us all know that it had something to do with the phases of the moon, something about a new person getting control over his body when the moon reaches a certain state." Lox smirked a bit, as he continued with a bit of a chuckle in his voice. "Then again the moon has been known to have significant affects on the ocean's tide, maybe he's secretly made of water as well."

Jericho hears the two girls whispering but he can't make out what they are saying, not that he wants to. He could care less what they are talking about even if it involved him. He is about to walk into the room when one of the others walks up to him. He frowns a bit.

"I have no idea what the self proclaimed doctor did with that book. I have been away. If you need it so badly, then I will look for it when I am done my examination. Now if you will excuse me..."

Jericho shuts the door behind him as he enters the room. Not wanting that man to follow, he locks the door and puts a ward on it that will send anyone who touches the door flying. He then turns and walks in the middle of the room and looks at the girls.

"Ok Frazil. How thorough of a check up would you like me to do? Do you want want me to check head to toe, inside and out to make sure you are hundred percent human. Or would you like me to just to the basic check the pulse, breathing and reflexes? I can understand if you say no though. You just met me and I can understand if it would be embarrassing to get undressed in front of a man you don't even know. I will leave the choice to you."

The subtle trembling in Jack's hands slowed as the door was slammed on his face. He had been so caught up in all the recent chaos with a laser focus, but with no clues or leads to follow, there was nothing left to do but wait. Once again Jack blushed with embarrassment, realizing he was last to figure this out.

"Uh...Air..."

Jack called into the room from outside the closed door with a hint of innocence in his embarrassed smile.

"I over heard you were going shopping. I don't have anything I need to shop for at the moment, but I would appreciate it if you'd let me join you all the same, just to kill time. I won't mention anything about your arm... Apologizes for fixating over it if that made you uncomfortable..."

Sharpe watches everyone pass in and out of the house, going about their routines. He watches Jack go up the stares to speak with Air and the Doctor, and to seem a bit disappointed, perhaps in himself. He can't really make out what he's saying, not that it would matter, he can however see his face. Hopefully the man calms down a bit from his usual giddiness. Whilst watching, a thought strikes him from before, he completely forgot about it. The house is still fairly unfurnished.

"Hey uh, Jack. Can you take me to your old place in Central? You said you had furniture we could move and we might as well get that done." He says. That is, assuming they can find an efficient way to transport it. Maybe someone nearby has a sort of wagon or carriage they could use to move the goods. He puts his magnum away in it's holster, since there's no need for it to be out now.

Frazil double checks to make sure any windows in the room are covered then turns to Jericho. Let's just have you check anything a pair of panties doesn't cover, including bloodwork if you need it. Just let me take this thing off. Well, most of it. Having worn catsuits in the past, it occurs to Airgetlam that it is quite odd that this one has no seams, zippers, buttons, tassles, toggles, hooks, clasps, or anything else that would make sense.

Frazil runs a finger down the center of her torso, and as she does, the material just... splits. For no apparent reason. The 2 others in the room look on curiously as she basically draws clothes onto herself, creating pieces that can be removed easily. First she cuts out a vest, and then runs her finger down her arms, opening the sleeves into flat fabric. She pulls the vest off, the repeats the act performed on the sleeves for her legs, leaving her standing in the equivalent of brazillian cut panties. She hands all of the material to Airgetlam.

Please take care of that for me, it's probably the only thing of it's kind here. She then turns toward the doctor, What do you need me to do?

As the doctor performs his checkup, Frazil converses with Airgetlam, answering questions. Wow, that was an info dump. Umm... for starters, yes we have currency, although we went away from actually carrying heavy coins a long time ago. We carry notes made, by governments, of special paper and dyes so they're hard to counterfeit, that represent denominations of wealth. We do have a few coins, but they're very low in value, and don't weigh much, as they're just representations as well. Also, we have banks that will hold on to your money for you, and give you a little card that you can use most places to directly debit from your account.

As for work, I wasn't as mercenary as you all seem to be, although many novas are. I actually worked for an organization called Project Utopia. It's basically a global entity that trains Novas to use their powers responsibly, and does things for the betterment of the world. Some are combat trained, in order to fight rogue Novas, but most aren't. Utopia even has an advisory seat at the UN. No votes of course, not being a country, but they have pull.

Oh! Nova was the name given to people who have quantum powers, and they run the spectrum. Pretty much any ability you can think of is possible, and of course the jobs that go with them. For example, within Utopia, some do terraforming for 3rd world countries to make water and food more easily obtained. Some are scientists. Some are only barely powerful enough to just make an ordinary job easier. Some are even entertainers, and fairly popular ones at that.  However; Novas are relatively rare. It was last estimated that there were only about 200,000 of us in a world of 8 billion.

Shyft was a rogue. He and a few others got together and went all dictator on a small country in South America. He could transport people and things across long distances. Teleportation we call it. The UN asked that Utopia send a team in. Apparently he doesn't have to let the teleport target arrive anywhere once they disappear, hence my predicament.

"Heh..." Richard chuckles a bit at Lox's ironic joke, before answering Jian's question, "Jericho is Atrium's split personality. Same body, different person. He only 'comes out' on certain phases of th' moon, 'nd doesn't share the Doc's memories. At least that's th' long 'nd short of it. He thinks differently, 'nd therefore acts differently from the doc, two different personalities occupyin' the same body; they just switch which one's in 'command' every so often." He says almost perfunctorily, as if the same question had been asked of him on a weekly basis.

"Jericho is... fer lack of a better phrase..." RD scratches his head as he thinks of the word he's looking for, then snaps his fingers and points to Jian as it comes to mind "... Self-righteous. Which makes him pretty selfish..."

Richard then goes back to leaning against the house with his arms folded. "... And yea ya should use a different knife fer carvin' if ya wanna keep yer dagger intact. See if ya can find a  good one when ya get a chance... Which reminds me..."

Richard steps back inside for a moment nodding slightly at Sharpe as he passes by him on the way to his bag which he left in the room he had slept in the night before. After sifting through it for a moment he pulls out a smooth stone about the same width and length as his hand wrapped in cloth. "There it is." he says as he places it in one of his pockets and walks by Point-man once again, now mentioning grabbing some furniture from Jack's place. "Oh, Jack lives 'round here? Hm. Well if ya need some help wit' that lemme know, i'm hopin' ta only be in town fer an hour or so, though repairin' Jian's knife should only take twenty minutes or less." He mentions in passing as he walks back outside to re-join Lox and Jian.

"A hive-mind then", he says, tilting his head. "Well he is not out of water, RD would know. So he's just someone with a split personality, his other half showing at certain times, interesting, yet somewhat discomforting.", he adds directly after.

Jian yawns out again, he's not been up for long. He could use some fresh air for sure, good that they're outside and about to go run a few errands. Jian nods at RD's statement about a different knife being better for carving, yet, he doesn't know to well what kind would be best.

"Well, as I am not too experienced with any craftsmanship, making charms being the first for that, I don't know which knife would work out best. It'd be nice if you could help me with that", he then says to both of them, in hope they'd have more experience with that.

RD then disappears into the building again and Jian shifts his view to Lox.
"We never really got to really talk, name's Jian, nice to meet you by the way. Sorry for the lack of manners up until now, but additions to the group seem like a really frequent thing.", he reaches his hand out towards Lox, as if he wants to shake hands, smiling.
