Re: Welcome to "The Watering Hole" Mawarra's Home Thread, part IX

OOC: Ceera has 'toned down' the effect of her eyes, so her eyes are not glowing, at least, nor are they much more compelling to look at than any other attractive woman's eyes. BIC:

When Amethyst replies, Ceera gets up and walks over to the bar. She sits on a stool on the far side of Amethyst from Mawarra, one that still leaves one empty space between herself and Amethyst, to give the other girl a bit more 'personal space'. Ceera's eyes are also green, but a very bright green, rather like green neon. Or, since Amethyst has probably never seen neon aside from the sign outside the Pub, which has no green on it, perhaps a better analogy is the green of a newly budded Ginko leaf. Much brighter than most green eyed girls.

"Domo arigato gozaimasu. I would prefer speaking English then. I picked up some familiarity with Nihongo in my travels, but this is more comfortable, and more likely to be understood by our host and the other patrons here."

Ceera seems quite friendly and relaxed, yet still somewhat reserved.

What's it called? She didn't see the huge neon sign over the door? AH! Perhaps she can speak English, but can't read it?

"The name of this pub is 'The Watering Hole'. It is owned by that kangaroo fellow at the end of the bar. His name is Mawarra. The fox is Lady Silver Fox, his sister, and she helps run this place. Heh! I can see the look in your eyes when you gaze at them. No, they aren't Kami. Just... different from you and I. You'll find that people like them are more common here than pure Humans. It takes some getting used to if you've never been around Furrs before, but I assure you, they are nice people."

"If you didn't notice the name of the pub as you entered, you ahh... might have also missed the sign that said what the pub rules are. So please allow me to give you a quick recap of them."

She ticks off an abbreviated version of the rules on her fingers as she recites them.

"Let's see. You don't need money here. All payments for drinks or meals are accepted in the form of stories, tales, songs or adventurers you have participated in or heard about."

"You're safe here. It's a declared sanctuary, like Temple grounds. No Fighting, spitting, throwing things or other brawling is permitted. Weapons must be kept unloaded and holstered, swords peaceknotted, or secured in it's scabbard is fine. In short, it's a no-combat zone."

"Ummm, Eating of Intelligent Sentiant Beings is stricly Off-limits, even by Pets. That's kind of important, given that some of the guests here may look like they belong on your dinner menu. Or they might think you look tasty. If it can talk or otherwise communicate, you can't eat it. And they can't eat you."

"That's the important stuff, I think. The food and drikks here are quite good. It's a nice place to relax."
