Good with her hands, in all senses of the word~~</em><br/><strong>Post Number:</strong>5<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Temudaria grinned broadly; perhaps Shaninera wasn't as bad as her reputation implied. She didn't seem all that bad, certainly not the kind of gal that deserved the welcome that Mouser gave her, and if she was willing to grin and have a bit of a joke with the rest of them, she couldn't be quite so psychotic as people tended to say, right? Well, Temudaria wasn't one to put stock in the rumours of the uninformed - there were some people who claimed that she herself was nothing more than an easy slut! Imagine that! The gall! - over her own experiences, and if she proved to be as pleasant and boisterous as she was showing herself to be at that moment, well...who was she to judge? If she got the job done, then her enjoyments were her own darn business, no? She shifted her weight on Dorghar, beginning to nudge him back into attentiveness; Shaninera was correct, of course, that it was high time to get back to the matter at hand. There would be no treasure for them as long as they stood around gassing on the road like a group of old grandmothers at a knitting circle, and she was all about that booty! She hadn't ventured all this way for just talk of an orgy, as fun as that may be. Besides, you know what was better than an orgy? An orgy on a pile of gold! A gorgy! Actually, on second thoughts...ew. That didn't sound quite as appealing.<br/><br/>One thing did bother her, however. She was just about to open her mouth to respond - something akin to a flirtatious or suggestive remark or other - when she caught sigh of a brand new addition to their party, one who had as of yet gone largely unannounced. Of course, Temudaria recognised the dashing black-coated figure of one of her best bosom buddies, Cass, as she strode up to the group, and almost lifted her hand in a cheerful wave...but then she caught the expression on her face. It was only a momentarily glance, but when it flickered towards her, full of cold scorn and disgust, with that peeling of the lip reserved only for those she deemed worthy of momentary contempt...well, it caused the ordinarily bubbly blonde to blink sharply with the sudden sting of it. She'd seen that kind of expression before, on both men and women who didn't know her and who judged her based on her open sexuality, looking at her with disgust and contempt, but she'd never expected to see it on<em>Cass's</em>face of all things.<br/><br/>Her mouth opened a fraction, as if to say something, a frown flickered across her face, and she closed her mouth again. It wasn't often that Temudaria allowed other peoples thoughts about her to "Get" to her, as it were, but this one...this one did it. She didn't have many outright<em>friends,</em>and even fewer who she trusted to watch her back in dicey situations...and to have one of them give her that disgusted, scornful look, as if she were somehow beneath them? Like she were nothing? Well...family was important to the Atanai clan, and with the rest of her family dead, people like Mira, Cass and Vendi were the closest things she had to sisters. So seeing Cass look at her like that...it stung, a lot more than she'd otherwise like to admit. She cleared her throat quietly to herself, and gave herself a little shake. Now was not the time to be worrying about it. She could...ask about it later, she supposed.<strong>"Well then,"</strong>She said brightly, a bright smile on her face. Even to her, it felt forced.<strong>"Shall we get to 't? Everybodies here, 'n those goblins ain't gonna loot 'emselves! Last one there has't' fuck 'n Ogre Spid'r!"</strong>With that, she turned Dorghar about and kicked him into a trot, not waiting for anybody else as she headed in the direction of the tower.<br/><br/><hr/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">TL;DR</div><div class="spoiler_body">1) Temudaria notices Cass's scorn<br/>2) Tem puzzles over the source<br/>3) Tem is hurt by the apparent disgust with which Cass is regarding her<br/>4) Tem attempts to disguise her hurt with a quip<br/>5) Tem turns Dorghar around and heads towards the tower, not waiting for the others to agree<br/>6) Tem is now ahead of the party, riding down the road towards the Tower</div></div>
