[Action for housemates, neighbors are free to hear Hawkeye smack her Not!husband upside the head =3, later she's hitting the streets!]

-Morning-
[Riza Hawkeye was naturally an early riser. It was the nature of her work. Most of the time, she didn't even need an alarm; she woke just before the sun came up and was ready to go about her day. Today

[Hol wasn't an early riser... in fact, he made it a point to sleep in as late as he could before that drone wife of his tried to make him breakfast. However, that wasn't the case this day.

The poor fellow was given a rude and earlier than normal wake up call... that coming by the means of a less than called for beating from... from... someone new. He struggled out to stand and was met with a less than happy woman.]

Whoa, whoa... whoa!!! Calm down...! What am I doin' in your bed? Question is... what're ya doin' in my bed!?

[Yes Hol, that's the perfect way to make an introduction... he probably could've given a better explanation if well... he woke up on better terms.]

[emperor_cowboy]

[He looked thoughtful for a moment. In all honesty, he had lost track when he arrived.]

Long enough, but not long as some.

[snipingmissy]

[Hawkeye sighs. Knowing how long Hol had been here didn't really help much, but it might have at least given her an idea of how long she would be stuck here.]

Thank you, Mr. Horse. If there is anything I'm needed to do to keep up appearances that won't be readily obvious, please let me know.

[emperor_cowboy]

'Nothing thing before I head out.

[He turned to look at her.]

"Mr. Horse" sounds too fancy for my tastes.

[snipingmissy]

All right.

[She pauses, looking at him levelly.] My apologies, using titles is a hard habit to break.

Is there something else you'd prefer?

[That's right. Calling him by his first name hasn't crossed her mind yet. Or, rather, she just isn't comfortable with it.]

[emperor_cowboy]

Well most folk who know me call me Hol. ... 'Course if ya ain't comfortable with it, suppose "Hol Horse" works too.

[It's how everyone referred to him back home... it was only when he got here that people simply called him by his first name.]

[snipingmissy]

If you're comfortable with it, I'll call you Hol. [It might take some getting used to, but she would try.

She smiled at him, weakly.]

[emperor_cowboy]

Well then, Miss Riza, I hope ya enjoy th' stay as long as ya can. This town has its moments.

[He returned the smile with a nod and then turns to take his leave. My, what a curious thing for him to say.]

[snipingmissy]

[Hawkeye watches him leave, perplexed. What was that supposed to mean--the town has its moments?

As much as she wanted to ask, she realized she'd taken enough of his time already, and turned back to the room, deciding it was time to take a good look around.]
