[LPF] Elenore's Jewels

[perrinmiller]

Tyrien, Half-elven Archeress

Tyrien keeps near the Receptionist and beings chatting with her about inane topics regarding their attires, hairstyles, jewelry, shoes, men's looks, shoes, and shoes.

Eanos hears them giggling at a few comments in hushed tones.

~ 3:55pm: The Roses - Bath House Reception ~

The guard is a bit slow on the uptake at first, but then he catches on that the expression on Eanos's face is indicating there are euphemisms at work. He motions for Eanos to raise his arms and begins the pat down process and it finally become clear that Eanos is trying to tell him something else and what that might be.

He keeps checking for weapons and things, eventually touching upon the dagger. He looks at Eanos with and arched eyebrow.

He asks quietly, "I... suppose I would like to try goldenrod." The guard mouths "Fifty" and keeps himself positioned with Eanos facing him, yet screening them from the desk.

The Receptionist doesn't appear to catch on.

Eanos Setirav, human inquisitor

Eanos smiles and returns a nearly-imperceptible nod. He starts undoing his belt pouch as he crosses the room, pointing to the open door.

"I find it's wonderfully useful, indeed. Now, over here, is this the waiting area? It's quite well-apportioned. Lovely. But: goldenrod. Did I have it in my belt pouch or was that ... oh, my."

Eanos manages to 'spill' gold coins onto the floor of the reception area, making a bit of a mess.

"Goodness. Would the pair of you be kind enough to help a clumsy soul out?" he says, kneeling to the ground and doing a terrible job of picking up the coin efficiently, instead looking pleadingly to both the receptionist and the remaining guard. He figures the guard is the likelier to help, as it should be clear this will be how he might get his payment. If he can manage to get the receptionist to help as well, then both would be angled so that Tyrien might make a break for the changing area to await Eanos.

[sblock=ooc]Not sure if Eanos is paying to get Tyrien in, as well, but even if he is, he'd have to distract the receptionist. So: another Bluff roll, this time to create a distraction so Tyrien can get inside if she decides to take the opportunity. I couldn't get Invisible Castle to respond, so I used Coyote code:

Bluff (distraction for Tyrien): 1D20+13 = [14]+13 = 27

Tyrien, Half-elven Archeress

Tyrien misses the cue to sneak off into the men's changing room. Even if she had known, she figures the first person that sees her inside would yell out and the jig would be up and would be hesitant to take the chance when Eanos appears to be doing well with the guard.

She bends over to pick up the gold coins thinking Eanos was wanting an opportunity to speak quietly while they are kneeling on the floor.

She waves the Receptionist back down into her seat, "Don't worry, we can help him."

The half-elven tart gives the guard a wink.

Kneeling down close to Eanos, she whispers, "How's it going?"

~ 3:55pm: The Roses - Bath House Reception ~

The Receptionist stands up and asks, "Do you need another pouch, sir? I could get one."

Walking over, the guard nods and replies, "Yeah, go see if there is a spare in the office. I can handle things out here."

The pretty woman goes through the smaller door where the other guard was last seen and you get a few moments at least with some privacy.

The guard kneels down and starts collecting coins, putting them into his own pockets.

"This will only cover my letting you in with that weapon. And, I don't share this," he holds up a gold coin for a brief second and then resumes collecting his bribe, "so if you get caught you are on your own."

[/sblock][sblock=OOC]I will award another one for getting rid of the Receptionist. "5 successes!"
That maxes social skill successes for skill challenge. You will probably need to roll more as you get deeper and can risk gaining a failure if you flub one

It will take another 50gp for getting in Tyrien past him. No roll required, it rides upon the other successes.[/sblock] Updated Map

Eanos Setirav, human inquisitor

Eanos holds back the instinct to sigh in relief as the room is finally clear for open negotiation. Or, rather, open-ish, as he continues to play the part of a courtier just trying to get a tart in to 'pay back a friend.'

"Nor should you have to, good man. My friend's known for her discretion, and not unfamiliar with working in the shadows, as it were," he says with a wink as he quickly produces enough gold to guarantee Tyrien's entrance, as well. "I don't suppose there's any kind of badge she might use to seem to be staff? Probably too much to ask, but I do appreciate the help."

He glances surruptitiously over his shoulder to the door behind which the other guard and the receptionist have gone.

"Best we were gone before they returned, though, wouldn't you say?"

[sblock=ooc]Sweet. If he has a way she can try to pretend to be staff, huzzah. If not, I guess she just has to be sneaky.[/sblock]

~ 3:55pm: The Roses - Bath House Reception ~

The guard shrugs, "Only their attire, which you would have to already possess."

"Don't get caught. If you raise a ruckus, I will forget about your gift of goldenrod."

He gestures for you to move along into the changing area as he positions himself in the center of the reception area.

Opening the door reveals a curtain that still blocks the interior from the reception room with the door open. Parting the curtains, you slip inside. There a rows of cabinets, tall and narrow to put your clothes into and hang cloaks on hooks. Each is numbered with keys in the locks of the vacant ones. Each key has a cloth ribbon to drape over a persons neck while they are inside the bathing area.

There are benches in front of the cabinets to sit on.

A small table with a stack of white towels and another stack of white washcloths is in the corner to your right.

There are no people inside the changing area at this time. The only other door from the room is also closed with a translucent curtain over it.

Eanos nods his understanding, and sighs a bit in relief as they make their way into the changing room.

"Can block you if you stand at the end of the aisle, just in case someone comes in," Eanos decides after a painfully long pause while he surveys the room. He points to the row of benches nearest the door into the baths, asking Tyrien to stand at the far end as he changes quickly in the front.

Gone is his false embarrassment, as he strips with efficiency. He doesn't comment on the scars--or anything else--he exposes in the moment, his facade of the playful courtier not necessary for now. He moves his dagger to his thigh, knowing he can't hide it once his clothing is off, and drapes another towel over his right hand so that he can carry his component pouch. He frowns a moment as he has to leave the rest of his gear, but there seems little choice.

"Me first. I'll signal as the coast's clear, yes?"

[sblock=ooc]Work never did let up, I'm afraid. Okay, as above, moving his dagger so he can hide it under his towel. I didn't move him into the next room because I didn't want to push things too far. [/sblock]

Tyrien, Half-elven Archeress

Tyrien gives Eanos an encouraging smile.

"So far so good. Let me hurry up and change. I presume you are going to talk your way past any of the staff with me still pretending to be a tart. Don't forget your coin purse."

She offers him some of her spare coins if necessary. Stripping down to her panties doesn't take much time. The modifications to push her little breasts together and up are covered with one towel over her chest and tucked in snug under her arm. She slips her dagger into another folded towel that she has tucked under her arm as well.

Nearly forgetting her exposed panties, she sets the towel with the knife down again to grab a third towel to wrap around her waist and tuck in at the side. Overall her work is not that great and after bending down to pick up the folded towel with her concealed dagger, the torso towel threatens to loosen and come apart. She tries again and it stays, but she has to hold the towel at her waist to keep it in place as she walks.

With a little exasperation in her tone, Tyrien says, "Let's get this over with before I lose something."

~ 3:55pm: The Roses - Bath House ~

With Tyrien ready, Eanos slips aside the curtain to crack open the door to the interior of the bathhouse.

There is an open space with a large pool of water to the right. A few men are standing up to their chest in the water. A few more are sitting at the edge, loin clothes only around their waist as their feet are in the water. Past the pool is a door to the outside, a relaxing garden within the walls of the compound.

To the immediate left is a massage room, according to the lettered sign, with the door closed. The next door to the left is open and there is a yelp as someone cries, "Eegads! That is freezing my-"

Straight ahead is a closed door with a fogged up window.

There is man (Square Token) wearing a loose white tunic and sandals on his feet. In his hands is a tray with some goblets on it.
