Alysia looked at the huge hand as it was extended and smiled at the bugbear whispering "excuse me" to the black haired swordswoman.  she placed her tiny hand, in relation to the bugbear's, inside and allowed them to touch, shaking being quite impossible.  She then withdrew it and looked at the bartender with the same pleasant smile "Thank you for the tip." but the gleam in her eye almost gave the impression she chose her words carefully and knew exactly what she was saying to the bugbear.<br/><br/>Alysia's smile faded briefly trying to gauge if the dwarf was going to start a fight and was truly lost for words when the bugbear removed the holy symbol of Kord as well.  "Well this is certainly beyond happenstance...the mighty wrestler's influence has spread wide it would seem.  Oh, I gave my name earlier, it is Alysia but sometimes it is missed and I hope I will not be a hinderance to you when we go out but you will not need to baby sit." Alysia's face remained impassive as she watched the group begin to gel and smiled softly as the dwarf grew excited by the though of battle. "well, at least some things don't change." she thought.
