"Why am I back here at this shithole, Kris? Because I felt like it. I was born here, and I think it's time I came back."
"[i]Eve, you know it's not safe here. Your father, and everything, they could sti-"[/i]
"Shut up."
Kris sighed disappointedly as he followed his companion out of a small freighter.
"It's changed a lot, ya know. They've added onto the defenses and the village... I almost preferred this place more open."
[i]"I think you should shut up this time."[/i]
Eve chuckled and followed the path into the village, Kris following.
"I think we should stop by the bar, see if we can find anything... or maybe..."
Eve turned to face Kris, a happy smile on her face.
"Some[i]one."[/i]
[i]"God I hope not."[/i]
The duo eventually made their way to a crowded but acceptably clean bar and entered, Kris holding the door open for a drunken, vomit-covered man.
"Ew."
[i]"Mhm. We've seen worse, take a seat."[/i]

"Drake, you're not serious?" Alpha said, scoffing "You're gonna let them in?"

[b]Midget, wanna hear a joke?[/b] "What?" [b]What happens when you put a bullet through a man's head?[/b] "Uh.. he dies?" [b]...Goddamnit, you weren't supposed to guess that.[/b] "Not really a joke.." [i]The two were conversing rather loudly at one of the round tables, with both of them across from each other, the duo speaking to each other. The former of the two, a deeply cloaked, padded individual, it's head clouded by a bandana and a pointed leather hat, revolvers hanging off of his side. The younger girl was quiet, blonde-headed and pale. She was short yet of average height still, yet muscular.[/i] [b]Mornin', sunshine and dandelion.[/b] [i]The robot raised a thumbs-up, to the newcomers.[/i]

Eve chuckled lightly at the bot's nickname/joke I'm sorry I'm really tired before sitting down at the bar. "Two Merenzaine Gold's, please." Kris set two gold coins on the counter before turning to Eve. Quietly and in a hushed voice, he spoke to her. [i]"The two over there. Guy in a cloak and a short girl."[/i] "Hm. We'll talk with them after we have our drinks." [spoiler]Ok. What in the fuсk does OK stand for? Also, Merenzaine Gold is an extremely expensive drink from Star Wars... *coughs* not that either of them are Star Wars related. The characters, I mean. I need to go to sleep.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]OK, as in Okay? And I know what Gold is, lol.[/spoiler] [b]Gal's cute. The guy is too. You'd like them.[/b] [i]The bot murmured, punching the young woman in the shoulder as it laughed quietly in it's monotone voice. The latter of the two would only sigh.[/i] "Seriously? Creep. This is a business trip, not a social call. I told you - we need to get those supplies for the boss moving-" [b]Or we could tell the purples-[/b] "No! No. Please don't." [b]They'd pay me quite a lot, sweetheart.[/b]

[spoiler]Wait are the bot and girl the same ones that you opened the post with[/spoiler] "Hey, have you heard about this guy called Michael Dra-" "[i]Eve![/i]" "What? I'm just asking a few questions." "[i]You'll raise too much attention.[/i]" "No, I won't. As I was saying." She turned back to the robot. "Do you know about a guy named Michael Drake?"
-
[spoiler]Yes.[/spoiler] [b]Michael Drake..[/b] [i]The robot kept quiet at that, though he would raise a single finger. From underneath his attire, Eve could see two glowing white eyes, nothing more.[/i] [b]Hermes incident, that Drake? The one that blew up an entire NTR ship with his crew? Uh.. Arrow-something?[/b] "Arrowhead. Surprised you haven't tried joining them like the dumbass you are." [i]The girl spoke up, sighing.[/i] "No, we don't know Drake. Not personally, doubt we will."
