Ye Olde Ranger Guild Hall: General Chatter


Recommended Posts

It's time once again for a new challenge. The guildhall is as welcoming as ever, with roaring fires going that somehow regulate the temperature just right, more dark corners for you to hide in than Euclidean geometry says there should be, and everything to drink, inculding what you don't yet know you want (the bartender has a...complicated relationship with physics, and can read minds, though he usually doesn't).

RES is in her usual corner, sipping an Irish coffee and wondering if it's the recent arrival of spring that has the hall so quiet....

Cheetah saunters in, casually looking over the room, a vague, semi-vacant smile on his face.  He wanders up to the bar.

 

You know me, bartender.  Cuppa tea.  Make it the hard stuff - leave the bag in.

 

He takes his tea and meanders around the room, eventually settling into a comfy chair near a fire place.  Contentment ensues.

Elasitigirl  looks around the Hall, sees several of her friends, and a few newcomers. Knowing the Ranger's tendencies to hide in dark corners, she decides it's time for everyone to get acquainted.  Looking at the bartender she says, "Next Round on the house is on me"... grinning she continues,

BARTENDER!  I'll need... uh.... seven ace bandages... a stack of Hello Kitty bandaids... and a shot of whiskey for color and stuff.  No wait.  Make that TWO shots, that's how all the best Bard songs are created you know!

Echo wanders in. It has been a confusing few weeks, her getting lost while on her new assignment, and now having to come back in the hall to regroup and see if she can restore herself a bit. She sits in a light corner, not really wanting to be alone, as she unfurls her scroll and takes note of all the things she needed to do to get ready for the new spring. 

"Bartender, a coffee please. I'll need the energy."

 

I made a challenge guys! My first ranger one! Lets hope it goes better than the last one. I'll keep up with yours as much as I can but I might be lurking more than not.

Never leaving home without his trusty oversized tankard, Azukmul starts pounding it on the table and sings his own song.  It is doubtful he will stop until someone fills the undulating mug.  Spills are socially acceptable.

Xena strides in with her hair piled in a messy bun and loops of a bulky scarf overlaying her armor. She notes the bartender’s raised eyebrow and returns her newly perfected icy stare.

“Don’t give me sh*t. I’m trying something” she says under her breath with a hint of a smile.

She wrinkles her nose a bit at the Carlsberg the bartender slides toward her before downing it in a gulp and setting the tankard forcefully on the bar. "Now how about a real drink?"

Emerald Eagle smile as she walks into the Guild Hall, it was good to be amongst friends. Following closely behind, her faithful pup bounds over to the fireplace and curls up for a nap. It has been a long journey, yet there was so much more to go. 

 

Walking up to the bar EE notices there is already a tall glass of sparkling water sitting on the bar, "I know it's not what you want, but it is what you need." said the bartender with a wink. "I've also left a bowl outside for hound." 

 

Saluting the bartender EE grabs her glass and settles on the couch next to @Cheetah. They begin a discussion of accents.

After meeting some new ranger friends who welcome him cordially, Matt sits back in his corner, pondering the many months ahead of him in this guild, and observing the merry horde of rangers. Suddenly, he sees a familiar face - @Siuken - a friend he recently met at the academy as a level 1 student. He comes to his table. "Nice to see you in the guild! I heard there is lot of work for swordmages here."
