<div class="floatleft">(http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2015/056/5/1/asvett_by_pixeldust86-d8jgb3o.jpg)</div>Asvett nodded solemnly, which was a great ordeal for her.  The goblin's instincts told her to smile and make some witty comment to lighten the mood, but this wasn't a time for joviality.  She pocketed the gem coin Jiroph had offered with a mental note to give it directly to Lyari for anything concerning Erica's that it could help purchase.  The girl sat at the table again, near the elf silently.  She looked over the bar patrons and back to him, unsure of how to bring him back from the brooding sadness that had seemed to overtake them both.  After a moment, she ventured a few words about the lost girl that may both honor her and bring a smile to Jiroph's face.<br/><br/>"I don't know, sir. From what I've heard about that girl, she'd have kicked your arse as well as the guard for trying to stay by her side. I imagine she was a tough chick."  Asvett looked back to the bar, wishing she'd brought more than just Jiroph'e beverage.  The girl bit her lip, having a hard time sitting still and not bouncing around like her normal self.  She wanted to both console and make the man laugh and smile, but that wasn't something she could probably manage in his state.  "Is there anything I can do, Jiroph? Anything at all? I'm sorry your friend is gone, but I have no doubt Erica wouldn't have wanted you to sulk about her."  Asvett hung her head, wondering if that was the right thing to say.  She didn't want to push him away after coming such a long way in calming him after his initial paranoia of the entire bar.<br/><br/><hr/><div class="floatleft">(http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/320/3/9/kira_by_jennyverse-d86p93e.jpg)(http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2014/316/0/9/chariss_by_jennyverse-d865odh.jpg)</div>"You said ten silver if I could go a night without sleeping with someone, and I didn't! Pay up, pipsqueak!"  The semi-large wall of green muscle shifted in her scant outfit.  Kira was nothing if not punctual about debts.  She never let one go unpaid and expected the same from her friends.<br/><br/>"Yeah, because the bloody place burned to the ground! The bet was off as soon as the Imperials stormed in!"  Chariss, on the other hand, didn't part with her coin so easily.  If there was even a hint of technicality that would get her out of a bet, she'd find it and exploit it for all it was worth.  It wasn't that she was cheap, but that she wanted things to be fair.  At least when it was her turn to pay.<br/><br/>"No, ma'am! You owe m-"  Kira was stopped by the ethereal voice and turned to give her practiced smile and a polite hand wave.  "Hey, yessir, one moment, sir. You owe me! I- Adon!?"  No matter the silver at stake, Kira was more than happy to let it drop for her favorite partner in crime.  She leaned over the bar with her toes still on the ground, which was easy for one of her height.  Her bust squeezed between her torso and the polished wood provocatively as she gripped the demon's jacked.  She pulled him into a kiss, holding him there for a long moment.  As she let him fall back to his stool, Kira was nothing but smiles.  "I haven't seen you for a bit, babe! Where the hell have you been?!"<br/><br/>Chariss leaned against the bar and cocked an eyebrow.  "Friend of yours? I don't remember you two hitting it off so well before the raid."<br/><br/>Kira shuffled her feet as they hung and looked around embarrassingly.  "We.. kinda.. hooked up a few times? A week? After the incident? Maybe?"  Her cheeks glowed bright red as she tried to avoid the dwarf's smirk and gaze.<br/><br/>"Uh-huh. And you 'hooked up' that very night I bet. Didn't you?"  Chariss knew when to find a breach in a bet even better than a technicality.<br/><br/>"I.. but it wasn't.. shut up and go pour some drinks, runt!"  Kira turned away sharply, her black pigtails whipping about behind her head.<br/><br/>Chariss chuckled happily and hopped from her stool to go pour the aforementioned drinks.  It was clear that the two love birds needed some time alone.
