*Enter Nan King, a young woman in her early twenties, dressed in a rather fine suit and shirt. She raises an eyebrow and takes off her hat, looking amused*

'Lo, there. I'm Nan King. *she pauses, then, and adds, softly* Is there a Miss Kitty Butler here?

Typist: Nan, from Tipping the Velvet. I blame Anna. XD

*tilts his head at her* Hi. 'm Nothing. I haven't seen your, um, Kitty, sorry.

[kent_mermaid]

*sketches a short bow* Pleased to meet you. *and then bites her lip, frowning* She's not mine.

[muchadoabout]

Nice to meet you too. *...oh -- oops* Then why're you looking for her?

[kent_mermaid]

I s'pose this ain't London, then? --I want to talk to her. She's an ....old friend.

*smiles prettily and is just about to dip into a curtsy when she realises this is a lady. dressed as a man.* Innerflails!*

Er....bonjour, mademoiselle. *keeps smiling, because doesn't want to appear rude!*

[kent_mermaid]

*headtilts, smiling a bit* French, are you?

[la_baronne]

Oh, yes indeed! *beamity* Do you, er, always dress...like that?

[kent_mermaid]

'Ve never been there, but it sounds interesting enough. *and this is a rather blank look* ...Yes. I'm -- I used to do this on the stage.

*he can't help but smile, bless him, when he notices exactly the same thing that has unnerved Cosette; he offers a sweeping bow that is not quite flirtatious and yet not quite sincere* Welcome, good sir-- or lady, an 'tis wished.

[kent_mermaid]

*and she bows in return, looking rather amused* Thanks. I think I'll stick with Nan, now. *winks*

[thefoodoflove]

*laughs* Why, then make I welcome, good Nan. 'Tis a curious habit, yours.

[kent_mermaid]

*lights a cigarette, still with faint amusion* It make things simpler, most 'f the time.

[jack_fing_twist]

sorry, havent seen your friend. *smiles at her* welcome to these parts. Sure are a few odd ones but `m sure you'll get used to it. If you tell me bout this friend, I'll tell you if I see her.

[kent_mermaid]

There's odd ones every place I go, it seems. *tips her hat* Well, she's about my height, with brown hair 'n freckles. *and here's a vaguely bitter grin* She'll probably be in a dress, though.

[jack_fing_twist]

Wull if I see her I'll sure tell you. You British? I'm from Texas m'self.

[kent_mermaid]

*nods* I'm from London. Pleased t' meet you.

[loonyradish]

I think I've seen her around, but not recently. *vague smile* Hello! I'm Luna.

[kent_mermaid]

*perks up -- hopefully not too noticeably, and bows* So she was here, then?

Typist: Let's pretend I don't fail at spelling.

[loonyradish]

She was. I'm not sure where she's now, though, sorry.

[kent_mermaid]

Mmph. I've got a fair idea.
