Future Crazy Cat Lady
Louisa blinked almost stupidly at the half-orc girl, initially thrown off by her appearance. And then the girl's voice pulled Louisa back to the present. "Oh, um... thank you kindly," Louisa said. For some reason, she felt warmer under this one half-orc's gaze than the entire bar of men who'd called out to her. Louisa couldn't decide if that was a good or bad thing - Alden had warned her not to trust anyone in Myrr, no matter how safe they made her feel - so she just smiled. A default reaction. Following the serving girl's eyes, Louisa looked to the far end and saw Logan.
She bit at her bottom lip. Suddenly, finding Logan seemed like a very bad idea. How in the world was she supposed to reason with an angry drunk? Louisa considered whether or not she should just bolt out of the bar altogether. Perhaps she could find another contact, someone who she could speak easier with. Someone who didn't look on the verge of a rampage.
But the half-orc girl! She'd been so nice to Louisa, so amicable. Logan would surely be her problem if Louisa gave up her charade and left, though she doubted the half-orc couldn't handle herself. Louisa glanced at her; she seemed fierce enough. Still, the half-orc was only one individual and she had an entire bar of patrons to keep in line. Louisa kind of pitied her.
"Ah, something like that," Louisa said. Every fiber of her body screamed that she was making a mistake, but Louisa had made up her mind. Best not back out now, lest she look a fool in front of the serving girl. "I'll take care of it. Thank you again." Louisa dipped her head before heading towards Logan's table.
