Auntie Mab nods her thanks and smiles as Kasha sets the tea and bourbon down on the table. Tristram, who had been expecting a smaller portion of whiskey (perhaps a shot glass), let's out an elated, yet puzzled *Meep?!?*, as the half-orc sets a brimming-full tumbler down in front of him. He sniffs around the glass for a moment, trying to decide how to handle this beverage that is clearly to big for him, then dunks his entire head into the amber fluid and proceeds to gulp it down greedily.
"Not much luck, no dearie. My little neffy's still stuck fast in his sleep, and I'm afraid I'm nearly spent out keeping up with the doctor's bills. Tristram and I will have to find some sort of work soon. There doesn't seem to be much demand for fortune telling around here..."
Busy sipping on her tea, and scolding Tristram for his bad table manners, Auntie Mab had missed most of the commotion surrounding the mysterious man in the corner. When Bob approaches Kasha to discuss the stranger's needs though, the old woman's eyes light up at the mention of good pay. "Well now..." she muses, "could this be the sign that Luran told me to watch for?"
[sblock="ooc/Luinnar"]I'd be interested in getting in on an adventure, and Auntie Mab is still available. But if yours is full already, I'd be happy to wait, as she's my second character. Also, I'm getting married on the 4th of September, and I'll be leaving on a 2 week honeymoon afterward, and unable to post on weekends before then, so I wouldn't want to hold things up for you.[/sblock]
Rysethynn smiles at Mab and Tristram.
"Hullo again!" she says enthusiastically. "How're things shapin' up fur ya then? Any luck with down't ta hospital? 'Fraid I haven't seen anyt'ing poppin' up 'round here by way of work."

Not me whose wanting work done miss, but that gentleman over there. he says pointing to the corner. Wants a package delivered. Didn't say what's in it. Will pay gold up front and when you get back. Pays good money too. Told me to pick out some sturdy lads and lassies that could do the job. You look like you have some experience with this sort of thing. he says all in one breath, cleaning a glass with a dirty rag.
