"I think we could order now," Linx responded as he sat down. "Four is good enough, now, waiter..." Looking between Archon, Dantin and Mokwa, he found that it was easier than he'd imagined to be with them all at the same time. Levels of tension were nothing like he expected. Perhaps it wasn't just tolerance on his own part.
"Zo... What is there, to eat, I mean? I was only here onze before and all I had was an ale I couldn't drink." Mokwa hadn't had much anything to eat since he arrived at the fort, just the odd thing Linx brought him. He had gotten so used to being hungry that it didn't really affect him anymore, and upon reflection he wasn't sure if that was a good thing. Is there any meat or something around here? Some seagull or something?

*Dantin shook his head at Mokwa's question.* "Well, don't ask me. I'm horrible at that kind of stuff. Have no imagination with food at all. *He looked over at Linx.* "You wanna help him out?" *Dantin wasn't ever very good at choosing what food he wanted, which is why he mostly stuck to the food in the barracks; not much choice but at least filling. Pus, he didn't even know al the food they had here or where it came from or anything.*

"You ever had seagull, Mokwa?" Very few beasts up at the fort hadn't at one point another, and Linx didn't expect anything but a yes from the lizard– Greens weren't so high on that guy's list.
"Zeagull? That ztuff is excellent. If you can... Yez. I'll take zeagull." As much as Mokwa butchered the word, he found seagull to be a rare treat down south. It would be heavenly to get it all the time. He glanced up at Finnerator, still at the bar. "...Who is that? You're giving her looks."
"That..." Archon didn't even need to follow Mokwa's eyes to see who he was talking about. "That's Finnerator. Fort leader. Haven't seen her here in a while. ...You know, if none of you have any objections, I'm gonna go invite her over. She looks so unbelievably bored over there."
"I'll do it..." Linx got up before Archon even knew what was happening, and approached the fort leader with no caution whatsoever. The atmosphere of the situation had dissolved his fear of leaders for the moment. "Hey. Finnerator. I take it you've noticed me already... What with the watching me and all, really, you wanna come over to the table?"

*Finnerator wasn't precisely bored, but the tavern keeper certainly wasn't an interesting conversationalist. She was glad when Linx walked over to invite her to join them*
"Hey. Finnerator. I take it you've noticed me already... What with the watching me and all, really, you wanna come over to the table?"
*The sea otter was a little embarrassed that she had been caught observing the other people in the tavern. People-watching was something she did often, but the otter wasn't used to other beasts realizing they were being watched. Finnerator laughed in spite of herself and replied with an easy smile* I was wondering how long you were going to make me wait. I'd be happy to join you.
*Finnerator left the counter with mug in paw and sat herself down at the table. Since she didn't recognize some of the beasts assembled she decided to introducer herself* I'm Finnerator Rudderbow. Pleased to meet you all.

OOC: Introducer?
BIC: Mokwa nodded to her, not precisely knowing nor caring the significance of the presence at the table. After all, being around Linx so much, he was accustomed to talking casually to beasts with far more power than himself. "Good to meet you, uh... Finnerator..." At least he didn't butcher her name as he could with others. That might have provided for an awkward moment.
Archon spoke just as Linx sat down next to him. "Hey, I didn't know you... Ah, whatever. Great to have you with us, can you guess what day it is?" Aside from Sunday? Not many beasts knew that this was the day Linx turned 25. If Finnerator knew, he'd be blown away, to say the least. And if not, he could inform her. Not that she'd want to join in on all the festivities...

*Finnerator knew Archon, but she had not yet met the other two beasts at the table. Nobeast seemed too enthusiastic about introducing themselves so rather than asking them directly, she just decided to wait and learn their names through the conversation*
"Great to have you with us, can you guess what day it is?"
*The sea otter shook her head* I haven't a clue. What day is it?

*Dantin had been a bit surprised when Finnerator had been invited over but he figured it was the polite thing to do. For reasons unbeknownst to him, he found it rather funny that she didn't know it was Linx's birthday. He stifled a laugh hastily, it wasn't good to laugh at other beasts... especially when they where the Fort Leader and all. He also decided it was time he introduced himself.
"Today is Linx's birthday! Er, sorry... I'm Dantin, good to meet you."

*Before Archon could answer the mouse that Finnerator had not met yet answered enthusiastically. The sea otter smiled and looked over at Linx* Well then, happy birthday, Linx!
"Er, sorry... I'm Dantin, good to meet you."
*Finnerator offerred her paw to Dantin to shake* And it's good to meet you too, Dantin.

Sinthin stepped into the tavern, he knew he was late, and he felt bad about it. He saw an otter he didn't know at the table, Linx, Mokwa, Archon and Dantin all at the table. He walked over and said to Linx
"Sorry, I was late, I was trying something. Just smithin stuff. Who's the otter?"
He asked quite loudly. He glanced at her and waited for an answer
**Fishrudder walked into the tavern, it was time to eat something. He glanced around the tavern, he scanned it, stopped and did a double-take, was that actually Finnerator? Wow, that was surprising, she was with Mokwa, Linx, Dantin, and Archon, Sinthin was over there too. He walked over and said to Linx.** Mind if I join you?

Linx certainly didn't expect Fishrudder. He did figure Sinthin would show up, though. "Fishrudder, you're welcome to sit here... And, uh, Sinthin, that's Finnerator Rudderbow... Fort leader... Who I still can't believe is right here in the tavern."
Archon gave an acknowledging nod to Fishrudder, then a much warmer look towards Sinthin. "Hey, Sinthin," he greeted in a tone that was equally so, "You wanna sit down here?"

*Finnerator moved her chair over a little to make more room for the newcomers* Fishrudder, great to see you! Pull up a chair. *She gestured to an empty chair at the next table over. The other beast who just sat down loudly inquired Finnerator's identity, but Linx replied before she could herself*
"And, uh, Sinthin, that's Finnerator Rudderbow... Fort leader... Who I still can't believe is right here in the tavern."
*Finnerator laughed heartily, not at Sinthin, but at the latter statement* Well, I figured I better show my face around here every now and again. People have to be reminded that I'm still alive. *She waved a paw towards Sinthin* Right here is a perfect example. So, honestly, how many of you didn't know me before I walked in here? *Finnerator asked lightly looking at the other beasts around the table*

Sinthin piped up and said "Nope, heard of you, never seen you." He chuckled and look down embarrassed.
Fishrudder smiled and commented "Well, I know you." **He squinched his eyebrows together and smiled (They do have eyebrows, right?). He reached over and grabbed the chair, pulling it over and sat in the space next to Finnerator.

OOC: Yeah...
BIC: "I didn't," Mokwa replied once people had stopped talking. "I don't really know who you are... Uh... Leader zomething?..." Barely interested in the topic, he stared off into space idly.
"I didn't, either," Archon added sarcastically. "Who is this 'Finnerator'? What fort? Who are you people? What's my favorite color?"

*Dantin laughed at Archon's statement.* "Hey, how are we supposed to know something like that? Besides, I didn't either. I knew we had a fort leader but thats about it... kinda sad really..." *Dantin shook his head in mock sadness.*

*Finnerator put on an expression of mock surprise* What? You mean I'm not famous? How could this be? *But the otter was never much of an actor and she couldn't keep a straight face for long. Her face momentarily changed from the pretend shock to a wide smile*
