<div class="floatleft">(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t295/JoanieSappho/Jo_zpsrcv42ozu.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Johanna Laurus<br/><strong>Location:</strong>The Vine and Horn Inn and Tavern<br/><strong>Time:</strong>the present<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Helia, Stanis, Lesslie, Maelynn, open<br/><hr/>Stanis' reply prompted a small, shy smile from the blonde, before her her attempt to speak to the purple-haired girl caused her to bolt.<br/>As her face fell, Johanna had started to rise to her feet to follow her but stopped when Helia took after her. She didn't have quite as much trouble talking to others, but she had enough to recognize the signs in the other girl and knew that crowding afer her would just make matters worse, even though she wanted to apologize for scaring her off like that.<br/><br/>Still, there was Maelynn's arrival to deal with, and the trail of knocked and jostled individuals that she left behind her. Johanna quietly hoped that her wings wouldn't provoke any sort of hostility, but despite that it was, as always, good to see her.<br/>"I'd like to hope so in the future," she sighed in response to her question. "But you saw how good my attempts at making friends go. It only ever seems to work if I pull them out of a river first. Oh!" She shifted slightly as she remembered something, putting aside the dragon-lady's words for the moment. "I've found us a little adventuring job. It's out in the woods, so I think you'll like it, collecting wood and gossamer for a musician to make things from. It shouldn't be too hard, and the reward is something I'd rather like. You don't have to come with me, though, of course." But, while Johanna had funds enough to support herself for a while, her finances hadn't been arranged with a supporting two people in mind. Still, a little something to help her magic would let her (hopefully) manage more risker - and better paying - jobs, not that she would ever bring up something like money with Maelynn. She didn't want the other girl to feel that she had any sort of obligation to her, after all.
