[QUOTE="loxmyth, post: 763502, member: 1255"] [b][i]~ Behind Philander's Clockwork, Rooksbridge[/i][/b] The leader of the ruffians looks down at the gold coin in his palm with amazement, hefting it in his hand as if he can't believe it's real. "Good man," he says approvingly, satisfied by the money. "All we want's what's ars." With that, he backs off. Once he reaches his friends, the four of them round a corner and are gone from view. The young boy's eyes nearly pop out of his head as Larina throws him a coin and he catches it. He too, weighs the coin in his hands carefully, then cautiously bites the corner before breaking out into a relieved smile. "Th-thank you, ma'am," he manages to mumble. "Ya gotta believe me, I ain't no swindler, ma'am. I be a child of the street and no more or less. It's a hard place, and I thank ya for makin' it a little less hard. Isame bless ya." That said, the boy cautiously starts to move down the alley in the direction James and Larina just came from, away from the last sight of the ruffians.
