Fnicket had always been on the lookout to save expenses, and doubling-up halved the cost, it was perfectly reasonable. It had honestly been a week and a half before other benefits of the arrangement became clear. Namely that most of the inns were cold as asmodeus' balls, and spooning helped with that. And<em>then</em>some other advantages became apparent...<br/><br/>The raucous ruckus below just made Elly grumble and tuck the thin blanket tighter around herself. She wasn't going to get up. She was comfortable. She was warm. She was... being kissed. Without opening her eyes she smiled into the smooch, sighing as it ended. "D' I<em>hafta?</em>That floor looks cold." She complained, finally opening her eyes and watching the halfling. "I'm sure we could come up with a reason to stay in bed," she offered with a smirk, lifting the blanket away from her pale, pink-capped breasts...  But apparently wasn't serious. She stretched under the covers, yawning largely before tossing them off fully and sitting up on the edge of the bed.<br/><br/>"Man? What man?" She asked, pushing her ash-blonde hair back and tying it. "Nobody told me anything about a man," she grumbled, slipping off the edge of the bed, grimacing as indeed, the floor was found to be cold. She padded around the room, gathering her scattered articles of clothing, putting them on as she finds them; one stocking, her shirt, then the panties, the second stocking, trousers... Her shirt was still unbuttoned and opened when she caught Jilcy by the hips, leaning up on her toes to return the earlier kiss to the somewhat taller halfling girl. "There, now we're even. I hate being in debt," she teased, before letting Jilcy go and beginning to button up her shirt. "Where did my hat land, did you see?"
