And in walks a young woman, barefoot and smelling of sea and sand and sweat, with skin darkened by the sun and hair bleached by it and chemicals, quite pretty, since these things are often passed on, and wearing a simple sundress.

*waves from her usual perch on the counter* Hello there!

[itsy_spider]

*waves back, not perturbed* Hello! Are you tending the bar?

[shinierthenyou]

No, but I could be.

[itsy_spider]

But you're not.

[asombertone]

*bows immediately, because zomj yay pretty girl* And there's so very much to see. I'm John of Cedar Hills, and it's a pleasure.

[itsy_spider]

*well, pretty boy, but-- oddlooks him* Do you always do that? It's not good to be bowing to any ol' person who comes by, how d'you know they're worth it?

[asombertone]

*...laughs* Believe me, I only bow to the women that deserve it. And I can certainly tell. *grins, and it's genuinely cheerful if deliberate*

[itsy_spider]

You're lucky it's hard being angry at someone so charming.

[notthefurryone]

*grins, offering a hand* As did we all, Miss Nancy, though many of us are quite enjoying ourselves here. I'm Spike Hawke-Next, welcome aboard.

[itsy_spider]

*shakes his hand, smiling in turn* Good. I wouldn't want to be here if it weren't fun.

[notthefurryone]

It can be insanely weird, depending on what you're used to, but overall its mostly fun, really. I hope you enjoy yourself, you look like the type of girl who can.

[itsy_spider]

*smiles a little* Enjoy myself doing what?

[umbrapervusviri]

*he really still isn't quite up to seeing people, but he's forcing himself to anyway -- so he'll nod to her with a faint, polite smile* Welcome, and I hope you enjoy yourself. I'm Leo Pendergast.

[itsy_spider]

Thanks. *offers a hand to shake, with a slight, indulgent smile* Don't you shake hands, Leo Pendergast?

[umbrapervusviri]

*looks a little embarrassed, taking it and shaking* I do. I'm sorry, I've been -- preoccupied.

[itsy_spider]

With what? *it's not, of course, her business, but since when are Anansi's descendants concerned with matters of privacy?*

[solvetsaeclum]

*grins, 'cause omz yay new people ^____^* Hi there. All roads lead to here, apparently, which is kinda weird, though I don't usually mind at all. I'm Dies, nice to meet you too.

[itsy_spider]

*oma, it's the Majpuppet reunion! ^__^* Rome it's not. It's not dead enough, and everyone here's young and pretty.

[solvetsaeclum]

*it is >___>* Rome's silly anyway. People don't stay dead here, anyway, and we are young and pretty, aren't we?

[itsy_spider]

That's the way it should be. We all are. Very pretty.
