Argus looked over at Drusia. Blinked. Took her all in. Started to say something. Stopped. Finally, he just sighed and gestured to Harker. "Hummina-hummina-hummina," the familiar all but drooled.
"Well said, Harker." Argus rolled his eyes. "And yes, we're done here." It had taken a very brief amount of time to whip up some stealth runes for Harker, which the familiar had secreted under his heavy vest. Naturally, the casting had been done privately. "Do you have a plan for dropping in on Kurou?"I watch as Rose and Suriah arrive and smile at the looks everyone is giving me. Good start. First things first, though.
"I just need to know where this castle is," I say. Harker should be able to fill me in on that. "And, funny you should mention 'dropping in' as that was rather my idea." Too bad about the dress, but then, I know a tailor who does wonders with repairs.
"Shall we?" I ask Harker. He nods and follows as I turn towards the door. I take a moment to approach Rose and Suriah on my way out.
"Wish me luck," I say to Rose.
I turn to Suriah and tell her "I was hoping to speak with you, but it seems that any conversations will have to wait for a few days. Until I get back, I'd like you to keep me in mind - I think we have a lot to discuss, and I look forward to getting to know you better." The smile I give her is both friendly and flirty.
As much as I'd like to stay and observe the effects my pretty dress has on my companions, particularly Suriah, I have elsewhere to be. With a sexy hair flip, I turn and head out the door.
Outside I pick up Harker and look around for a hill and a castle. "That one?" I ask Harker. He nods.
I gauge the distance. That's a little far without an established gate, but then, I don't need to make it all the way there. "Hold on," I warn him and concentrate.
Reality bends. And we're standing in the middle of the forest, halfway up the hillside.
Eh. Close enough. I put down Harker and start walking. "Stay close until we get there," I advise him. "When I make contact, use the distraction to get inside."
