[ModNote: Continued from Reconnaissance.] * the large invisible cat, pads quietly into the public house, with no-one batting an eyelid to his presence. He searches around the room, looking for a sign of the faerie creature that led him here. But there is neither hind nor hair of the creature in sight, sound or smell.* *in belief that he has missed them.... he leaves, in a rather disgruntled mood, heading for outside the pub, to find some shelter and somewhere to sleep.....* *he walks outside the pub. (next thread Round the Back)

*The Crazed Heifer's piper, whose ear for music is just one of several heightened senses, is vaguely aware of Coriolis' brief presence in the tavern; but feels no anxiety. Rather, he feels a curiosity, mild because he knows that it may never be quenched, despite his surroundings; he closes his eyes and allows a new melody to filter to his lips, trusting in himself that it will reflect his mood.*
*The piper plays a tune known as 'The Pink Panther'.*

[ModNote: Continued from the Dungeon.] * the pair appear outside the heifer.... and can hear two noises as they walk towards the entrance......one sound like someone after too many refreshments, and the other..... a faint snoring noise, possibly a cat purring?* *But both noises are of no interest to Midnight and mog, thinking that a pair of drunkards are lolling about the back, and avoid the area for puposes of safety....and enter via the front door*

*As Midnight enters the pub she takes a quick look round trying to work out any escape routes. In case they are needed. She then walks up to the bar to ask where she can find some where for her and Mog to stay.*
*The serving girl looks up as she sees movement out of the corner of her eye.*
Midnight: Excuse me miss but could you tell me where I could find some where to rest?
*The serving girl looks a bit surprised at the sight of Mog in Midnights arms.*

*Slevela, the serving-girl, knows that if she recommends the Wolf's Howl Inn as a place to sleep (the Crazed Heifer has no beds), Owen will berate her for squandering potential customers. So she says...*
Slevela: You can rest here, if you wish! Settle down at one of those tables and I'll bring you some drinks! You'll find it quite restful, what with the piper playing. What would you like?

*Whilst some of the people in the Crazed Heifer are startled at this sight, most of them are mildly amused. The piper takes encouragement from it as he plays.*
*Slevela is a little confused - didn't the duo say they were tired?*
Slevela: You're going to be thirsty in mo. You want drinks?

*Midnight laughs and shakes her head in amusement and affection at Mog's sudden burst of energy. Noting Slevela's look of confusion.*
She gets excited easily. I'd love a white wine please. Though I'm not sure what Moogles drink.
Mog what would you like?
*For the first time in days Midnight feels herself begin to relax. Watching Mog looking happer than Midnight has ever seen her she hopes this will last a while. She lets the music flow over her while she turns her attention for a moment to the room. There is a man playing the pipe and other humans and creatures most of them watching Mog.*

* after noticing that everyone in the room is looking at her, she gets quite embarased... she then looks at the girl, with a glance of childish indecision.... her finger in her mouth, and swaying from side to side leting her other arm swing about in time with it..*
Ummmmm....... do you have Kupo juice?

*Slevela is a little taken aback. Does wine come in white? What is a kupo? This is possibly the first time anyone's ever asked her for anything other than ale or mead.*
Slevela: Er... give me a sec, I'll check what we have.
*Slevela scurries down a stairwell at the back of the room, which presumably leads to the cellar. Several minutes pass. The piper is playing a new tune: a profound monastic hymn called 'Like A Prayer'. Slevela returns, carrying two flagons and a nervous smile, and places them before Midnight and Mog.*

*Midnight looks a little surprised at the apperance of the flagons but quickly hides it as she sees Slevela's nervous smile. Slowly Midnight reaches out for the drink and takes a sip. To Midnights surprise the flagon does indeed contain a white wine and a good one at that.*
That's great thanks. Whats your name?
Slevela: It's Slevela.
Midnight: Well nice to meet you Slevela again thanks for the drink.
*Slevela smiles as the woman is pleased. She just hopes the little Moogle did the woman say... is happy with her drink.*.
*Midnight decides to leave the bar and chooses a table at the back of the room. She can watch the room and door from where she is. Even though relaxed she doesn't forget to keep her eyes open for trouble. She takes another sip of the wine and waits to see what Mog thinks of the other drink*

*mog takes lifts looks into the container, which is nearly as big as herslef and has a sniff....*
*she looks up at the maid,*
That doesnt look like Kupo Juice..... *has another sniff* and it doesnt smell like kupo juice.....but it appears to be interesting.... i'll try anything once.....
*the moogle picks up the drink and heaves it into the air, flapping her wings in the process, and manages to get into the air. She then hovers across the room to where midnight is sitting, sits on the table top and puts the drink down.... and then she attempts to take a drink...*
*she tilts the drink towards her, and tries to balance it on it's edge... the lid starts to open and the liquid is rapidly making it's way for the moogle's pompom, but it starts to topple.....

*Midnight quicker than she intended jumps and catches the drink before too much is spilt.*
Slevela could we have a smaller cup for Mog please? The flagons just a bit too big for her.
*Slevela brings over a glass to the table and Midnight puts some of the liquid into the glass.*
Thanks Slevela.

*the moogle is given a very small glass, small to a human, but about the size of a mug to the moogle.* *she holds it steady while Midnight pours some of the liquid into the glass* thanks Midnight! *she lifts the little glass to her lips and has a sip...* MMMMmmmmmmmmmmmm......
