Paquin: Caravan City

A rich rust colored city, hung everywhere with brightly sewn tapestries and fabrics.  Preformers wander the streets - singing, puppet shows, instruments, acrobatics, storytelling - anything to dazzle and awe ... and distract unsuspecting people away from their money purses.  The city bustles with life, but it can also be dangerous.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

Kale steps out of Destiny and onto the dirt streets of Caravan City, the air is still warm as the last rays of sunlight bathe the town.  He glances down the streets and then makes a right, trying to remember where exactly The Blind Mans Eye is supposed to be.  "Just make sure you keep an eye out fer your belongings." Kale says with a grin to the group following behind him.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

Geoff stepped off the ramp and looked about the city, a light smile on his face. He was glad to be out and about again and especially glad to be going to a bar. This had all the makings of a really good time, in his book. He looked over his shoulder to make sure Lei was following before he moved on. Even then, he would insist that Lei walked at his side or in front of him so he could keep an eye on her. No telling what could happen when he wasn't looking, after all.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

Acacia takes a deep breath, Gosh, how long have I been stuck in the ship.  It feels so good to not be breathing recycled air.  And to have natural light.    She grins broadly Right Charlie-girl?

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

   Lei followed down the ramp, and fell into step beside him when he motioned her to. While walking down the street with the group, Lei's head keeps turning from one side to the other as she constantly finds something new to look at. She didn't ask anything about what she saw... There was just too much going on to find out about, and she didn't know where to start.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

"You guys are always goin' on about how nice fresh air is.  To here you speak you'd think I keep ya'll locked up on the ship." Kale comments, as he smiles at puppet theatre on the side of the road, a group of young children all huddled around it.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

Geoff smiled lightly at Lei's obvious curiousity at everything she sees. He finds it strange to think that these sights that he considers common and mundane are all brand new and exciting to her. It's almost enough to make one think they're taking things for granted. Luckily for Geoff, he is not one for deep thinking or philosophical quandries so he just shrugs and follows the captain at a casual pace, keeping track of Lei out of the corner of his eye.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

I swear Kale sometimes, I think if you could jelp it you would never leave the ship, me I can almost taste staleness of the air.   It is just nice to get out  Acacia walks over and looks way up so she can look him in the eye.  She pokes him in the chest, you better keep us locked in I can't treat explosive decompression very well.  She laughs then storlls a little away before he can respond.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

"Damn right I love my ship!" Kale called after Acacia with a laugh, "Ain't nowhere like the black." he added mostly to himself.  Then came to a stop as he almost passed right by the Blind Man's Eye.

"Well, here's the place." Kale said and stepped inside.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

   Lei looked up at the building. She couldn't really see any difference between it and all the other buildings they'd walked past, each place was as colourful as the next. Sure, there were many small differences between the stores they'd walked past, but they just made that place part of the colourful riot of the city. After a gentle nudge from Geoff to send her towards the door, she followed the captain inside.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

Geoff nodded lightly at the place, smiling wistfully as he did so. "This'll be a good time...", he said as he moved inside after gently making sure Lei would move inside before him. A bar was definitely a place to keep an eye on the girl, he figured, so he followed closely after Lei, making sure to keep an eye on her and those around her.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

The Blind Man's Eye is draped in colorful tapestries (much like the rest of the city).  Tables litter the floor and crowds of boisterous people sit around them.  A fairly large cleared area on the right side of the pub serves as a make-shift stage where a woman with a tambourine and brightly colored sashes dances to a man playing on a set of drums.

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

Kale grins and then leads his group to an empty table fairly close to the preforming area.  "Ah, just what they say it is." he says, taking a seat.  "An' look, live entertainment and everything."

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

Acacia walks in looks around the place.  It seemed nice, well at least it was new people, she loved her shipmates, but gee did she wish to kill em sometimes,  wel at least most of the males.  So  Acacia said trying for a low mysterious whisper,  What kind of nefarious plan are we enacting in this establishment?

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

Geoff grins lightly as he lightly places a hand on Lei's shoulder to guide her to the table and gestures for her to take a seat as he himself sits down, glancing lightly to the stage. "Well, that's right nice there, Cap'n. Right nice. Better than some o' the other places I've been in.", he remarked as he grinned over to the captain,"Here's hopin' the drinks are as good as the entertainment..."

"No nefarious plans, Acacia." Kale said in mock offense, "Well, perhaps a bit business dealing if we happen to come across it.  Folk like us need work."

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

"It's a shame, having to breathe stale ship air every day."  Charlie spoke, taking in a deep breath as she did, tilting her head back.  There was nothing more wonderous than the night, especially in a place like this.  There was a moment of pout in her face as they went inside, but it passed immediately at the lush atmosphere of The Blind Eye.

"I love this planet.  You're buying the first round, right Cap'n?"

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

A young woman in her early twenties stood behind them.  She was dressed more like a dancer than a waitress.  She definitely had the build of a dancer.  She was wearing gray tights with  a matching leotard and a contrasting skirt.  She smiled at them, her hands clasped in front of her..

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Blind Man’s Eye, I’m Wei-Li and I will be your waitress for the evening.

She looked around the table and smiled.  "Could I interest you in some drinks, or perhaps something from our kitchen?

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

   Lei stared around wide eyed as Geoff guided her over to the table. There were so many people in here! More than Lei could remember seeing in one place before. And they were all talking about different things... So many conversations. She sat down where Geoff showed her to, then sat up straight, craning her neck to see over the heads of the crowd to try to take in everything happening in the room.
   ((Ok, it doesn't need to be that crowded to make Lei think this is a huge crowd...))

Re: Paquin- Caravan City

Kale laughed at Charlie's request, "I suppose I owe to you all." he looked up at the attractive woman who had just introduced herself as their waitress and smiled. "We'll have a round of the finest ale you got.  See, I ain't evne skimping out on my crew." he said pointedly to everyone then his eyes fell on Lei, "Oh and how 'bout a fizzy drink for the lil' lady here."
