[FONT=Century Gothic][SIZE=4]"Thank you for a lovely time, dear" Emmeline said as they concluded their time on the dancing floor.
Emmeline looked around, and went back to the bar. "May, dear," she exclaimed, "another glass of water please, it's been a fun time so far and I believe there's more to come!"

Oh my. So, this man was from the future. That means Listens-To-Wind was not the only one plucked from his timeline. Why did he have to spend his last moments in a foreign land, in [I]Edinburgh [/I]of all places? Why not somewhere in the Great Plains, or by the Huron?
"That's a pretty boat! She sail well?" He said, trying to adapt around what might be future lingo. Maybe Mal will think he's being metaphorical.
[QUOTE=Mordru][B][COLOR="#800080"][SIZE=4]Without opening his eyes, Mordru snapped his fingers. Immediately, the brooms around May began to sweep on their own.

Yet another display from this wizard Mordru. Listens-To-Wind sipped his water as he watched a nearby broom sweep away stubborn dirt and dust, happening to reach his boots in the process. The Senior Council member was impressed that the man could enchant them all without any preparation beforehand.
He lifted his drink in Mordru's direction.
"From one wizard to another, here-here."
[QUOTE=Danielle Moonstar]"Not too long ago, my grandfather spoke to me to discuss my future. It was then... that we saw a vision. A vision of him being attacked and murdered by outlaws.

Listens-To-Wind couldn't help but see himself in this Danielle Moonstar. He knew something about what it felt like to be wronged by those of European descent.
They have caused anger and regret he has been dealing with for several hundred years now.

Listens-To-Wind shuddered as the entity walked in. He had felt similar presences before, Mother Summer or Mother Winter, but this might be even more potent, and [I]much[/I] more malicious in nature. He felt like he wanted to dive into a freshwater spring. He kept an eye on that one, fearing for Mal or May's lives, for all the good he might do against this figure. And the polygamist who accused him, she sensed it too. Perhaps she possessed an untapped magical talent? Was she a Sensitive? He might inquire once he got the scope of this Marvel Town situation down.

Rejected by Harribel, Reed slumps his way back to the bar, just in time to hear a newcomer give some exciting news.
[QUOTE=Deadpooligan;353627]The Captain whispers out of the side of his mouth.
[COLOR="#696969"]"It's okay. I've got a [B]tab[/B]."[/COLOR]
He runs his fingers along the bar grabbing an idle bottle in the corner and sneakily stuffing it into his coat. With a raised hand he gestured to Mal Reynolds behind the bar.
[SIZE=3][COLOR="#696969"]"How you doing? [I][B]Frank Castle[/B][/I]. Couple of glasses of [B]whiskey[/B] for myself, the fella in the gas mask and the big guy."[/COLOR][/SIZE][/QUOTE]
It crosses Reed's mind that this fella could pay for his drinks, too, of course, but before he can ask, the owner shoots 'em all down, with words, not pistols.
[QUOTE=Anodyne;355490]"Your 'tab' outran my forebearance last time you were here," retorted May Parker, deftly retrieving the bottle from under the Captain's coat. Placing a bowl of stew in front of Mal, she said, "You've done your fair share of work, and I thank you, Mister. You want whiskey, beer or sarsparilla?" She then turned to the other would-be freeloaders and said, "Anyone else wanta earn their food and drink, there's dishes that need washin' and a floor that needs sweepin'."
"By the way, anybody who ignored my request to leave their weapons outside can just put them in this here box 'til you're ready to pay up and leave," May added, pulling out the box and her shotgun from behind the bar. "Peter, I'm countin' on you as deputy to keep the peace."[/QUOTE]
"Never meant to be a freeloader, miss." Reed puts his revolver in the box. He says with some exasperation, "Keep an eye on it, Sterling, and everyone else, too. Looks like I have dishes to wash." Reed makes his way to the back and does as he's told.
