At Gara's question, Ari turned, eyeing the crowd, Talis's voice warming to his audience, and then over to where her father stood.  Shrugging, she turned back to her friend, a faint smile on her face, her brows knit.<br/><br/>"I just came down myself, but this feels less like trouble your brothers caused and more like...  I dunno.  Something?"  Idlely she picked up the silver coin, tipping it up on one edge, then sending it spinning with a flick of her fingers back towards the Orkish girl with a snort.<br/><br/>"Family discount.  Ale's on the house and Slops for Snuff will be doing us a favor.  Be back in a wink."  Spinning around on the bench before Garashna could protest, she threaded her way across the busy floor, returning quickly with a mug in each hand, setting one down in front of herself and pushing the other one across the table.<br/><br/>"I told Thomas the younger to take care of Piggly.  You'd think I'd have gifted him a fortune." she chuckled.  "Boy's got a strange fascination with wild critters."  Taking a small pull of ale, the Inn's best, of course, she planted her elbows on the table, chin in one hand.<br/><br/>"Reyata should be here soon.  Soon as she gets here, though, if you want, we can hide out in my room.  It's warm there and it's more... well, comfortable."  she glanced over her shoulder once more at where her father stood, a scowl upon his face.<br/><br/>
