<strong>Name;</strong>Kei Kyouki<br/><strong>Location;</strong>The Prancing Pony<br/><strong>Tagged;</strong>Zam Sharrow, if you insist<br/><br/>Kei heard Mizuki talk about a band of demons on the outskirts of town that needed extermination, but before she could reply, her character froze up.<em>Darn!</em>Kagami, Kei's player, swore.<em>A lag at this time?</em>There was nothing to do while waiting the server lag to sort itself out, except to count the hours she had been in-game. Kagami had spent the most part of the day in the game now, though that should not have caused the lag. She had played for days on end without any server problems.<br/><br/>When she could finally move again, Mizuki had gone, presumably to her room to retire for the night. Kei sighed. She really was terrible at making small talk, wasn't she? That was why although she spent so much time in this game, she rarely made friends. Draining her glass, Kei decided it was time for her to retire too. As she stood, her gaze fell upon the shifty thief-looking PC again. She remembered what she had thought earlier about not judging characters by their looks, and before she knew it, Kei had done something totally out-of-character: she smiled at him.<br/><br/>Hoping the man had not noticed, Kei grabbed her weapon, which had been leaning against the table, ran up the stairs into her room, and locked the door. She was tired and had not been around civilisation for too long, that was all. There was no other way to explain her odd behaviour. Sighing audibly, Kei began to unbuckle her armour, undressing herself until she stood naked in the middle of the room. Then, she made her way to the adjoining bathroom. The tub was already filled with hot water, waiting for her. Kei untwisted her long braid, shook out her golden tresses, and sank into the tub. Aaaah, nothing like a good, hot bath at the end of a long adventure...
