OOC: You do know that's like saying, "Attack us!" right? (Please be merciful CJ...)

OOC: Wrong, yet likely for how he represents his character.

Vace had wondered deeper into the town, and walked into what had once been a bar. <Just the thing I need to straighten my thoughts...> Vace thought ironically, but threw aside the thoughts and searched until he found an unopened bottle, then went onto roof to drink and think.

Taim sighed softly. He didn't relish the idea of spending the night outside. But from what he could tell, the healer was fast asleep, and he certainly didn't have the heart to wake her.

He didn't mind the cold, having spent more than his share of night out on the street. But he didn't want to fall asleep out here. Whoever had said it was right, there could still be bandits hanging around. However, Cid and the cat looked like they weren't going to be moving for a while......

Taim let his head rest against the wall behind him, and slid into a light sleep, confident that he would hear anyone (or thing) coming up on them with ample time to react.

OOC: what? you want a battle? I was hoping JAD would be on by now and we'd quickly get to spend the night here and then get on our way to the wizard's place... But I guess I could think of something to attack us if people want it...)

OOC: No... No quick night... Must make Jad cry...

Tamakatari had been leaning against the wall the entire time, and watched as everyone else left. He looked out at them as they huddled close to each other. And he huffed. Pathetic. Just pathetic. They get so worked up over one man dying. Tamakatari had left 16 dead men just lying in the forest. Good thing he never told them that, or else they might have done a mass funeral. Damn bleedin’ hearts. Tamakatari shifted his eyes over to the decapitated body. He slowly walked over, and looked at it with a frown.

“What’s wrong? Didn’t the guard treat you well? It’s nothing to lose your head over. Pun intended.”

Tamakatari leaned over and picked up the decapitated head, and looked into it’s eyes.

“We have something in common. We’re alone. In life, your group abandoned you. In death, they left you alone in a room. But hey, it ain’t too bad. Being alone can be a good thing.”

Tamakatari dropped the head to the dust of the floor.

“If you were alone, the guy wouldn’t have killed you. When you’re alone, no one can betray you. Remember that.”

Tamakatari left the room, and closed the door.

OOC: You realize they also killed a bunch of people during the ambush, right?

(OOC: Yep. Which makes me wonder why everyone is so down, when they just killed a bunch of people?)

OOC: Well, those kills were in combat. This one was a tied up man, who was just tortured, then got his head cut off after giving Cid the info. If you want, Tama can help Lynx make Cid cry.

OOC: if you're gonna make him cry, do it quietly. people are trying to sleep over here.
