Apartment Two, Builing Six on Weavers Way, Jasper Tinsfield

[Eulia]

"Aiden! Come say hello to your sister!" shouted Eulia from the apartments front hall. She was starting to take off her boots as her jubilant 13 year old brother came tumbling into the hall.
"Eulia!" he cried as he barreled into her.
"Oh you rogue!" she screamed as she fell over. They mock wrestled until Eulia pleaded exhaustion. When they stood up Jasper was in the doorway with a twinkle in his eye.
"Hello youngun'"
"Hallo Jasper, what have you made your poor working lass for dinner?"
"All in good time. How was your day?" he asked with a meaningful arch of his eyebrows.
"I had a fine day thank you, sir." slinging an arm around Aiden she walked towards their makeshift parlor. "Did you have fun at the glassblowers today"
Business could wait until Aiden was safely in bed.

[Eulia]

Aiden was safe asleep in the room he shared with Jasper. Jasper was nodding off in the sitting room. Eulia was now effectively left to her own devices. That day after her run in with the assasin she had gone to a healers, one of the few that treated the rogue, and found out all she could about poisons. Then she went to a potion makers and purchased a potion. The man had told her when she dropped it on anything with poison it would glow a color. He gave her a color card after she tossed him another copper noble. Based on the color she could know what poison it was. On her way back from that shop she went to the eating house the man targeted had gone into and saw that the establishment had been taken over by the provosts men. Playing the innocent girl with one of the guards she had found out who had died. She wanted to know who employed that assasin and what else she planned to do in Corus. Eulia didn't particularly care, but it would be a challenge she was sure, and her days were getting dull.

[Anna Strange]

"Miss Domasik!" whispered a voice in her ear. Anna skipped back, laughing and grinning. "Gotcha!" she exclaimed.

"What are we doing now..." she murmured.

[Eulia]

"Anna!" Eulia hastily sweeped the things under her bed. "What on earth are you doing here?"

[Anna Strange]

[Oops! I was confused by your post and thought you'd left the house. Wow. But, I can run with it.]

"I followed you home, silly," Anna told her happily. "Watch who's behind you next time. Besides I'm very quiet. Is this where you live?" She surveyed the room from corner to corner, eyes pausing to rest on the bottom of her bed. "What's under there?" she asked.

[Eulia]

OOC: sorry 'bout that. I suppose I should be over the confusing posts by now, but I'm not really.

IC: Scrambling to her feet Eulia planted herself firmly between Anna and the bed. Hackles rising Eulia struggled not to get angry.

"It's none of your business Anna. Anyway, I'd prefer if people knew as little as possible about what I do with myself on the weekends. Just for safety. What would you like to do, now that your here? Whatever it is lets not make it noisy. I don't want to wake Jasper and Aiden. They both had long days."

[Anna Strange]

"Who's after you?" Anna asked concernedly. "You didn't get on the wrong side of Lasser, or anything...?"

[Eulia]

Giggling quietly Eulia arched an eyebrow, "No one's after me Anna. Lasser could care less about what I do as long as I pay my dues. No need to get worried about me. Just so that no one finds out anything they don't need to know is what I meant. Here lets go on the roof so we can talk."
Tiptoeing to the back door Eulia opened it and climbed the rest of the stairs to the top floor of the building. Stepping on top of the railing Eulia swung herself on top of the wooden overhang that shelterd the stairway. Eulia crawled to the real roof of the building and waited for Anna to follow her up.

[Anna Strange]

"Well, you can't be too sure," Anna said, following her up the ladder. "Remember when my father made that joke about the King (not the one on the hill, of course) and had to go into hiding for a week before he cooled off? Or were you in the Roses then..." She sighed perplexedly. "It all gets so confusing after all while, these details. Well, here we are." She surveyed the surrounding rooftops with a critical eye. "Too bad you have to look at your neighbors laundry."

[Morgana Roberts]

"Not all of it is going to be the neighbors." Morgana replyed coming up from the ladder with a basket in tow.

She looked at Eulia. "Please tell me your not getting yourself mixed up in something, again 'Lia"

[Eulia]

"For Mithros' sake you two! No one's afer me! I prefer laundry to gutters thank you very much. I remember that about your father, Anna. I've been hanging around the Roses since I was 10. Morgana has for about just as long too. Anna?" Eulia said quieting down alot. "I know you don't like to talk about it, but do you still... well... feel the same way about Crispin?"

[Morgana Roberts]

"Just whatever you do, don't get Lesser mad at you. I don't feel like rescueing you." she said teasing the young girl as she hung the laundery.

After she finished. She turned to Eulia. "After your done up here, I need to finish hemming your dresses."

[Eulia]

"Oh, you don't need me for that do you? Besides Morgana I don't need rescueing."

OOC: sorry so short, gotta run.

[Anna Strange]

[*curses her limited internet access* I wrote this a long time ago, and now I must edit. Sigh.]

Anna threw her head back and laughed, if a little bitterly, Eulia could be a nosy know-it-all sometimes, and she was seriously regretting having told her about her crush. Then again, she probably would have guessed anyway - with such an expressive face, Anna was never especially good at hiding things, especially at fifteen.

"That's ridiculous," she told Eulia.

"But, still, be careful, Lia," she warned. "I know it doesn't seem like much now, but if you meddle too deep..." she widened her eyes expressively... "you could end up like Jess Wheeler. Remember her?"

[Ack. Choppy.]

[Eulia]

"Meddle to deep in what? And, no, I don't remember Jess Wheeler. Remind me please. Are you sure it's so ridiculous Anna? I saw those eyes of yours when Crispin was talking of Lady Love up at the palace. You remind yourself once in a while that he is twice your age right? And that he is a total lush? I don't mean to pry it's just I hate seeing you be uncomfortable around him. We all see each other so much, it's rather painful really."

Eulia glanced at her friend. She really didn't mean to pry, but it just wasn't good for Anna to have to interact so much with Crispin while it obviously hurt to hear him talk of his affairs. Especially since he talked of them so much.
