Moonlight Marina

Just another evening in the Carmina Gadelica Marina.

Vafrum
Carmina Gadelica Marina - Inner Square

    The moonlight dances across the waves that lap against the wooden beams of the Marina. Most of the people that work and live here have gone home.

The light that shines on this now sleeping city is by either flame light or by the very moon itself. Though one soul stands alone at the edge of the railing that overlooks the ocean.

In hand, a bottle of some type of drink, while those golden eyes observe the waters, moving like night diamonds against the rays of moonlight. From there, Vafrum starts to softly hum a song to himself, not aware that any may hear the humming or the melody that his own voice might carry.
June

    The middle aged librarian looking barbarian princess... or perhaps barbarian princess cosplying middle aged librarian... it's all a matter of perspective... June wanders by and noting a familiar face she simply leans on the railing, long fur cape hiding most of her, tousled hair and sandaled feet the only things on display as she produces a long silver kiseru.

    Slender ink stained fingers pack a small twisted ball of tobacco into the ball and then the tip of her finger glows like a hot coal that she presses to the ball before puffing a few times. Then she draws in, before letting a small plume of smoke to drift from her lips. June is quiet and that might seem an oddity.

    The man doesn't sing for to long though and the smell of tobacco is one thing that gets his attention, before glancing over to see June there.

His eyes look to the plum of smoke, to her, then takes a sip of his bottle as he looks back out over the ocean. "Hello dear June. Smacker of behinds." There was a teasing grin on his lips, before he looked back over to her.

"I am dare curious as to where you gained the tobacco from. One of the objects of my desire to bring about was cigars." Vafrum looks away once more. "Though be my luck such is already out there and it be a fool's errand to continue such a chase."

    June nods her head, but it takes longer before she speaks than previous encounters might indicate is normal. She points her kiseru at a shop down the street. Then takes another lungfull of smoke and relaxes against the railing, smoke drifting from her nose and fading into the night sky. The response is almost mechanical, like auto pilot and without the animation and well life June often expresses. She takes another pull on her pipe looking out at the waters, her position graceful and looking almost like something a Lander might do as a waiting animation before the Apocalypse.

    Vafrum watches as June does NPC like behaviors. He does look where she points, but his eyes fall on her, before back to the waters before he takes another drink from the bottle in his hand.

He listens to the waves and the wind, his index finger gently taps the bottle, as he goes to shift his weight. "You fought well during that duty and my words hold true." The man closes his eyes, "Though I am going to take a guess, that you are not much of a conversationalist, or only when you deem to be."

"That makes you a bit of an enigma and... Hard to figure out." Vafrum opens his eyes once more. "Wise move in an unknown world around unknown situations."

    June snorts, it's a loud unladylike noise. "Oh shit shit no oh kami above no." she shakes her head and puffs on her pipe. "You see my guild tag right? I mean please what?" she giggles and it is a girly noise. Yah she's a bit hard to pin down. "I converse all the time, people just don't want me to, see you've got problems if I'm talking and you're listening." she grins and shakes her head her hand moving her pipe around in little circles. "See cause that means you have to listen to EVERYTHING that is in my head and no one wants to live in my head trust me I'm here all the time." she giggles again and takes a draw of smoke. "If I want peace, I just have to let things run and generally that means not talking becuase not talking is not thinking and not thinking means I can just exist. You want talking you get talking there's little I can do more than I do talking, hell most of the time I'm talking regarless of if anyone is there or not so... yah wise engima I am not. I'm more Golum and less Galadriel." she takes a deep breath, then a puff of her pipe and then kind of drifts back into 'npc' motions leaning against the rail and just letting her body do as it will.

    Vafrum quirks a brow when suddenly...

June speaks!

"Then I suppose I have problems." Vafrum admits with a mild hand gesture. "But I like listening to people. They have details, information. Bits and bobs. Things I can even take into account later for future economy endeavours."

He then goes to take another sip, before going to empty the bottle; Which wasn't much left. "I suppose the question is. Do you wish to speak and thus think, or would you rather stand in silence, not think, and thus not speak?"

Vafrum looks over to her. "After all, the air is calm. The peace is here..." Though he goes to move away from the rail. "Though I do find this little port a bit to... humble for my blood."

    June shrugs a little, the fur cloak lifting and falling and she takes another draw of smoke. "I don't mind talking... I guess I should explain why I'm a sleeping knight." she says and then switches to Sindarin "Do you really think he's going to care why you're a sleeping knight? Well it is a way to let him know what you're like. He knows what you're like Junie it isn't like he wasn't there when you made an ass of yourself on a quest." she taps her lips and in Japanese she says "And.. there you have why I'm a Sleeping Knight..." she says and licks her lips.

    June nods her head "I'm a linguist...polyglot... I design conlangs and conscripts for authors and games." she says "And well... Flash of Death happened and I have... well I'm a Sleeping Knight now... easier that way." she says and puffs on her pipe lightly.

    "That does explain why you seem to enjoy speaking in other languages, breaking what seems to be... the odd translator that came with the expansion." Vafrum points out when she brings up linguist and such.

"I had to learn a few foreign as well, but most for.. corporate reasons." Vafrum explains, tossing the bottle over to the trash bin. "However after Pluto's Kiss and the like, gears had to shift, things had to change, so on and so on."

The Were Fang hiding in human form, then steps away, before he turns to face her. "And now I wonder if I may have hired someone like you in the real world, but," He places a hand ot the side. "Hard to say and really, until this digital world can be broken free from, ha!"

Vafrum then smiles. "It is best we make our dues in this digital landscape, so! Hopefully you are at least happy in the Sleeping Knights and this world bring about all type of new experiences and wonders to test wet your," He turns to face her, "Skillful lips on." Then his smile turns into a dangerous grin.

"However, given your combat abilities and being in such a guild with a reputation to challenge self. I am guessing should I ever need assistance from a fighter, I could call on you, hmm? After all, I may one day need your assistance and it could be more of a ... permanent venture with pay."

Vafrum taps his chin gently, "Though that comes down to if cards are played that way I THINK they will be played."

    June taps the side of her head with two fingers and shakes her head. "I don't..." she looks for the words a linguist probably should have. She switche to Sindarin "It's easy enough Junie, you don't have words in your head anymore that's easy enough right? Hopefuly he'll understand that he doesn't seem stupid." she switches to Japanese. "I don't have words in my head no... internal voice to verbalize my thoughts... I use other languages so that I'm not rude... but this infernal translator." she growls and then she's a bull woman snorting green mist, and you might want to back up... perhaps walk away because the bollard she's decided is expendable might not last long enough for her rage to run out as her iron clad limbs smash into it over and over in flowing but methodical martial arts strikes.

    Vafrum observes her, he has heard everything including the conversations to herself. An unstable woman perhaps, but one that if fine tuned can be still useful.

It is though when June transforms and seems to become angry that he takes a step back, resting his hands behind his lower back. "If it is any condolence, it doesn't bother me. We all have our quirks. It is, however, our actions that truly speak for us."

Vafrum then turns about and goes to walk away. "Just don't make to much of a mess, June. I don't have the coffers yet to repair what you may do, but one day, I do hope we can work together!"

He looks over his shoulder toward her, that predatory smile on his face. "So, I'll be in touch." Then he leaves while the leaving is good.
