ooc: I never said you ramble, Skye! Your character said she was rambling, and I just said that bards love to talk.

Just citing the difference between quiet thieves and loud bards. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Starshadow looked around the assembled party, noting some of the new faces. He glanced in Heartless' direction and noticed the daggers. "Those were the ones I caught a glimpse of earlier," he thought. "So she was the one spying on the conversation. I wonder why she'd didn't join the conversation...? Best be wary of her." He also admired the legs of the woman while he was at it. Even if she was a human. He wasn't blind, after all.

"Okay, who else needed keys to get into their rooms?" he asked aloud. "If you can't get into your room without a key, how can I expect you to open any other lock?" He was a professional and he expected the same out of the others. So far, he'd been disappointed. Maybe it was a mistake to join.

He turned to Heartless. "You'll get paid after the job is over. We have to see what we come out with first. The guild has no reason to shortchange you; if it wants to keep your services, you will be paid." His eyes moved towards Shadow underneath the hood. "That's the normal way things are done, at least."

Starshadow noticed a newcomer at the entryway; a rather tall and well-built human woman. "I wouldn't expect an Elf maiden to walk in that door, would I?" he thought. He was impressed with the bandage on her arm; she, at least, was battle tested.

"How many bards do we have? Unless I'm mistaken, we only have one. This means we're going to have to have a couple of make-shift ones. Who can play the part of a bard?" He paused a moment. "I can lead the second group, if you want, but I'll need competent people. I need wall climbers, lock pickers, lookouts, and so on. If you do not have an exceptional talent in one category, I say you go with the bards."

Now that they were talking about a job, Starshadow went into professional mode. He knew how to get things done; he had the experience, after all. "Of course, the final decision does fall on our guildmaster." It was almost an afterthought, really, as Shadow had not proven that he was capable of handling things.

ooc: I think this should get things moving.
