Message: <blockquote data-quote="RChicken" data-source="post: 1090314" data-attributes="member: 13831">Tiptoe nods obidiently as the woman informs him of the cavern's rules and restrictions, smiling a bit akwardly at the times that seem appropriate.Thank goodness she speaks enough for the both of us...He attempts to follow the woman's words as best as he can, repeating some of the lines to himself as she speaks to allow them to sink into his mind.  The Dancing Griffon... he's seen the place, but has never had the courage to venture in.  But she suggested it... it's almost like an invitation.  Grinning to himself: this was such a good idea!  He's already becoming accepted.Scratching his hair a bit, he reaches for the paper, taking it slowly and carefully from her hands."I can read, but not fast-like."He recognizes a few words immidiately, but pauses as he notices some of the more difficult words later on the page.  Moving away from the desk, not turning from her, he thanks the lady once, then twice, distancing himself somewhat so she won't hear him sounding out the words.  After a few minutes of slow reading, he rereads the paper to make sure he can fully understand it: nothing seems to be problematic, so he searches his person for something to write with, realizing it's never really been a problem.He takes a few minutes to read over the paper once more, slowly memorizing the shapes of the characters that comprise the sounds of his name.Returning to the desk, he asks the lady for a quill or inkpen for "just a moment, just one," keeping his head low to his chest. Note to Mith: Still waiting on your decision as to how defend would make the rats respond to enemies not directly threatening my character but threatening companions.</blockquote>
