"And you all must be my new friends!" Bea reckoned. "My goodness you all are just so charmin'! I can't wait to get to know you all, 'specially you, twitchy." She points to the half-elf and gives him a playful wink followed by a sultry chuckle. "Well! I best be gettin' to introducin' myself, my name is Be--" And then she was cut off by the door opening, her eyebrows raising in interest at the new face.
"Oh! Oh ho, my dear, lookit~" Her hums, pleased at this sudden turn of events! The girl who spent quite the pretty penny on her the other night. Goodness she was a wildy one. "My favorite customer just walked in." She clasps her hands together with a smile of delight. "What am I doin' here? What you think I stay at the hive for all my days? Well you'd be right, but this little bee is gonna fly some, get some nectar in other parts of the world." She giggles lightly and keeps her eyes on Cora. "Were you lookin' for another round of honey, hunny? Or you here for the job too?"

"I'm here for the job."Cora said, putting her hands on her hips, a soft smile twisting upon her lips, staring at Bea with a look of questioning, curiosity, and intrigue. "You're not exactly cheap, you know. But damn, *****, you're worth it. But you already knew all that, didn't you."That's when her smile really widened. "You understand this trip is for 50 days, right?"
Bea gives Cora a warm, sultry laugh. "Oh, you flatter me, my dear! I am indeed quite a pretty coin seeing as I am the owner of the hive. They don't call me Queen Bea for nothin'!" She laughs again while waving a dismissive hand. "I do hope our night was enough to... satisfy your cravin' though. Haven't seen that much sexual prowess in ages." The blonde hums happily for a moment before continuing. "Anywho! I am aware of how long this trip is gonna be, and it seems I got 50 more days to get to know you better, hm? Maybe I won't have you pay this time, just for how good you were the other night~"
She turns to the others with a smile. "Please excuse my rudeness, it's not very often I see a customer outside my establishment! As you heard my name is Bea, but you can call me anythin' your heart's desire; hun, sweetie, *****, mommy, if you're into that, blondie, whore... Now who are we workin' with here?"

"I ****ed the owner?"Cora muttered to herself, then made a face as if she was impressed with herself. "You still got it, you slut."
She snapped out of it.
"The gnome."she said. "Angel Licka Stella d’Saliva..or..something."She pointed to the gnome, not remembering her name.
"Angelica Estrella d’Sivis"Angelica correctly cheerfully. "When you're ready I can show you the ship!"
Cora walked over to the half-orc in the wheelie device. "Hello."she said, nodding, "Sorry, was talking to the whore I..didn't expect to see again."she cleared her throat. "Sometimes a girl's got needs, am I right?"she then barked in a loud awkward laugh, as if caught in a secret. "I'm Cora. Cora Perkins. Is this like, a bicycle, or something?"she waved vaguely at the wheelchair.
She walked over to the fox thing. "I'm Cora."she said, trying to hide her obvious reaction of the fact Willow had ears and a tail. "Are you, like, some sort of fox person?"she asked. Cora has seen some shit in her days, but some things she couldn't wrap her head around.
Finally, she gave Averian a brotherly singular pat on the shoulder. "Wazzup, dude."she nodded.
Willow, snapped out of her daze by Cora, glances between her and Athela. "I... Yeah. You could say that's what I am. Partially a fox. My name is Willow " Her ears twitch slightly in thought. "My sister, Athela, uses her chair to get around most of the time. She has trouble walking." She then offers Cora an interested smile. "You don't seem to be that modest about your personal business and... language. You seem to be a very confident woman." She brushes her fingers through her fur on her tail slightly almost absentmindedly.

Athela keeps a firm hand around her sister's wrist to keep her from going after any shiny things, and gives the others a smile. "As my sister said, I'm Athela. My legs don't work, so I use the wheelchair to move around. It's nice to meet you, Cora, Bea. I suppose we will be getting to know each other over the next fifty days or so-airships can be pretty tight quarters." Her eyes flick briefly to Averian with interest before she laughs before looking back at Angelica. "Lady d'Sivis, we would be honored to see the Celeste Noir. She sounds like quite the ship."
Averian seems to visibly shrivel as he sees and hears the other people in the room, he whispers something almost imperceptible under his breath, "I should've stayed at home..."
He introduces himself briefly, in what sounds like a shattered formal air, "My name is... Averian."
He whispers under his breath again, slightly more shocked and louder, "Fifty days? Oh god."
As Angelica offers to show them the ship, he straightens quickly, making a beeline towards her while avoiding making eye contact with the rest of the crew, "Yes! The ship! That sounds wonderful!"
Once the paperwork is out of the way, Angelica leads you all to Skydock Six, where the airship Celeste Noir is docked, at the edge of Upper Dura. The dock overlooks the sea many hundreds of feet below, but the airship’s majesty and sleek, black hull is enough to distract anyone from the dizzying drop beneath their feet. You all board the craft, its engines fire up creating a blazing ring of elemental fire around the center of the craft, and the Celeste Noir departs Sharn. There is plenty of crew cabins on board, and each of you get your own room if you weesh.
You are introduced to the the ship’s pilot, a half-elf named Demetrius d’Lyrandar. He is the only member of the crew who possesses the Mark of Storms, and thus is the only person who can fly the airship.
The ship moves with incredible speed, traveling miles in the span of only a few minutes. It is truly an amazing piece of technology.
Cora slowly walks along the edges of the ship, and up at the elemental fire ring, and has a look of pleasant amazement on her. "Never seen or been on one of these before.."
Athela beams as she wheels herself onto the airship. "Haven't been on an airship in ages! And this is truly a beautiful example of its kind." Upon meeting Demetrius, she gives a fair approximation of a formal bow from her chair as she says warmly, "A pleasure to meet you, Lord d'Lyrandar. I look forward to traveling with you and your crew over the next fifty days." She glances at the scenery blurring past at an awe-inspiring speed, looking impressed. "This airship is truly a feat of magic and innovation. I have never seen its like."
As they are led out of the ship, Willow makes a direct effort to bat one of the wind chimes as they leave, leaving it to click and make sounds for god knows how long after they are gone. She stays close to her sister and hums excitedly.
Now:
Now on the airship, Willow slightly surveys the surrounding for any mice or small rodents she can see scurrying around. Being in the air causes her to almost absentmindedly and stressfully brush her fingers through her tail fur. "Quite impressive yes... It really HAS been a long time." She seems a little skeptical of being near the edge of the ship as it moves. She instead takes interest in Averian, who seems visibly displeased about everything.
She approaches him quietly, keeping a careful eye always on Athela. Willows ears tilt slightly, one perked up with interest as she approaches the man. "Is something the matter? I mean no offense but you seem pretty displeased about... Well... all of this..." Willows foxlike eyes stare at him directly, a slight friendly smile on her face as she await an answer stubbornly.

Averian made an effort to not be introduced to the pilot, doing his best to stay small and out of sight. Other than that, he appeared more at ease aboard the ship, making a quick religious gesture to avert the Devourer, but overall being more relaxed as he stared out the window at the passing clouds. Due to this, he's completely caught unaware by Willow's inquiry, jumping up slightly, and turning with wide eyes.
"Ah! Uh, nothing is wrong. I'm not displeased or anything, I really like the skies. I mean, they're nice and all, and really relaxing, but they're not something I'm dying to surround myself with. I'm perfectly happy with what I have, not that there'd be any reason to be upset with the things I have, of course. Say, does the last name d'Lyrandar mean anything to you?"
Willow tilts her head before laughing slightly. "Ah yes... They pretty much control the airship you're riding on now. They control all the airships. It would make sense that The lord and Lady have their own captains for their airships.." After a minute Willow tilts her ears to the side in thought. "Personally I don't prefer the sky. I'm more of a ground kind of person. But I suppose if I'm stuck here for 50 days, I should make an attempt to get to know everyone. Including you. My name is Willow." Willow gives a slightly regal bow, her tail swishing happily.

After giving the captain the appropriate greeting, Athela wheels herself after her sister, giving Averian a warm smile. "The skies are quite lovely, and yet also nerve wracking to surround oneself with," she agrees. "I don't think I got to properly say that it's nice to meet you, Averian. And of course, any Marked scion of House Lyrandar is able to use the last name of d'Lyrandar."
Averian definitely perks up upon hearing that Willow prefers the ground to the sky, "Ah hahaha, yeah. The ground is pretty nice, and I'm glad that you're a fan of it! I'm, uh, Averian, but you can call me whatever you want! I don't even really like the name Averian that much, so feel free to call me something completely different and unrelated! You can tell everyone else, too! Yeah, there's no need for everyone to meet me personally ahaha..."
He trails off as he sees Athela wheeling over, he glances around quickly as though looking for an exit before turning back to the half-orc and picking nervously at his robes.
"I mean, there's really no need for any formal greetings, right? We can just be casual, it's not like we've got some sort of hierarchy here or anything. That's pretty interesting, that they all have the same last name. Makes them stick out, right? So that you'd remember if you'd met anyone with that last name before...?"
He trails off, a nervous smile on his face, as he waits for a response.
Willow tilts her head as she studies Averian. "Averian is fine by me. Although I do think we should all meet each other personally. You cant judge a person truly from a distance." She looks to Athela with a smile.

Athela smiles. "Of course there's no need for anything formal, I just didn't want you to think I was ignoring you," she explains calmly. "And yes, I suppose it is interesting, although the noble lines work much the same way-the ir'Wynarns all share the same last name as well, after all. And I've met too many Lyrandars to really remember specific ones." She laughs. "Unless they were of particularly high rank or very memorable, of course."
She smiles back at her sister, some extra warmth in her eyes. "I couldn't agree more, you can't judge someone from a distance very well at all. And I'll stick with Averian unless you'd prefer something else."
Cora made no effort to personalize her cabin, being alive for so long and constantly on the move, she didn't care to make it more her own. While most of her memories were fuzzy, she remembered most of the general details. The rough childhood, the Academy, her old partner, killing her father, being an adventurer, making friends, and of course, working for Hell. Dying a few times. Living a long troubled life. And now here.
She walked back outside and continued to admire the vessel, especially the arcane fire ring. Sure, she had lived long enough to see a world where there was no magic, even high technology, but that wasn't the case anymore. For whatever reason, she was alive again, and on a completely different planet she'd never been on before. No friends, no meaning, no love..no purpose.
Growing slightly alone again, she watched as the fox, the handicapped, and the anxious man spoke among themselves, and didn't feel like joining the conversation. So, she found Bea. "Hey. Hi."she said, awkwardly, and she didn't know why. "So, uh. Yeah. Is your business going to be ok with you away for so long? I know this sounds weird, but I didn't expect to see you apply for this job, knowing your occupation. I mean, i'm a wanderer, but..you've got a business, and shit.."
Averian looks at Athela warily and speaks in a rushed voice, "Oh wow you've met a lot of Lyrandars that's pretty cool huh Averian is totally fine unless you find something else interesting but I guess I really should be going since I want to be checking out the accommodations and times a wasting ha ha ha bye nice meeting you."
With that, he makes his way past the two as a column of fog appears directly below him, propelling the half-elf over their heads. As Averian lands behind them, his clothes look slightly different, as though some of the fog was sticking to it instead of dissipating. Once he lands, he begins to speed walk away.
Athela gives her sister a look, raising her eyebrow. "He's an interesting one. Remember the time Mother was greeting an airship captain and he literally dropped into the room through the skylight?" She laughs.
Willow nods and laughs with Athela. "Yeah... That was a pretty interesting introduction. As for him... He is an interesting one. Very skittish though. He'll adjust in time I suppose?" Willow still stressfully runs her fingers through her tail fur in thought. "I wonder if the ship has rats on it. I mean... There are always birds... they're just... less appealing."

As Averian lands behind them, his clothes look slightly different, as though some of the fog was sticking to it instead of dissipating. Once he lands, he begins to speed walk away.
Athela gives her sister a look, raising her eyebrow. "He's an interesting one. Remember the time Mother was greeting an airship captain and he literally dropped into the room through the skylight?" She laughs.

Willow nods and laughs with Athela. "Yeah... That was a pretty interesting introduction. As for him... He is an interesting one. Very skittish though. He'll adjust in time I suppose?" Willow still stressfully runs her fingers through her tail fur in thought. "I wonder if the ship has rats on it. I mean... There are always birds... they're just... less appealing."
