<div class="floatright">(http://www.infinitelibraries.com/images/Elli/Kiva.jpg)<br/>Kiva (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=280528.msg13792246#msg13792246)</div>Kiva just looks right back; she gets stared at all the time, this isn't new. She wrinkles her nose a little - cheap-skate! - but nods. Twenty gold up front, room and board until they leave... still cheap, accounting for more or less literally walking into the unknown.<br/>"Most be new at this; usually th' hiring body is playing up the shiny treasures by now." She shakes her head, finally breaking eye contact. "I'm almost afraid t' ask how somebody builds something like that without somebody raising a fuss, especially th' way you describe them. They that nasty, or that sneaky?"<br/><br/>With the question of payment settled, Kiva hooks a chair and sits, without looking, and without looking concerned at the way the wood creaks when she trusts her weight to it. The largely friendly way some of them interact, Kiva takes as a good sign; they know each other. That implies coordination, familiarity... it's a good sign. To Kiva, anyway. Neeral's comment makes her focus again, and she grins. "Rock, stock and barrels .. Neeral, was it?" The grin widens; Kiva doesn't have fangs, as some tieflings do, but there's a hint of them. "Sounds good to me."
