Another drabble featuring Starry's bosmer
Alias lead the way into a cramped bar with Breyela close on behind him. They were on a job for the Guild together as they usually were, and needed to ask a dark elf named Runensi a few questions about their mark. Finding him sitting at a table in the far back corner they approached him, Alias had dealt with him before and knew he would help if given the right offer.
The Dark elf looked up at them, "Ahh Guild master Crescent, what an pleasant suprise..." his eyes quickly flicked from him to Breyela, "I don't think I've had the pleasure of meeting this fine creature. Who are you?"
"Breyela." she replied trying not to say more to the replusive mer than needed be, "A beautiful name to fit an even more beautiful woman."
Breyela blushed slightly, "Err, umm. Thank you. But we didn't come here for compliments, we came to ask you about a man named Nothrasi. He owes our client an awful lot of money and we need leverage for him to give it back." Alias loved watching Breyela work, she was much better at persuading people than him. She made it look so easy.
"I may know something, but i cant just give that information up for free." he looked her up and down, Alias was not liking the way he was looking at her but tried to push the feeling away and let her do her thing.
"I figured as much, i have a deal to make. I heard you're in debt to the Inn keeper here due to a few too many poker games, we'll clear that debt up for you." the Mer contemplated the deal,
"I think i have something better. How about you and I have a few drinks together? I'll feel more comfortable giving up said information if i get to know you and your pretty face a bit more." his eyes werent even looking at her face at this point.
Annoyed, Breyela rolled her eyes "Excuse me?" before the elf could reply, Alias spoke up, "I swear to the eight if you dont bite your tongue, I will personally remove it from your mouth." his fist was balled up tight and ready to knock the elf square in the jaw.
"Come now Alias, you cant keep all the pretty ones to yourself. You should share a bit, I just want her for the night, then you can have the wench back in the morning." that was it, not even a split second later Alias had punched him several times in the face.
Eventually Breyela pulled him off and was screaming at him all the way out the door, he didn't really hear what she said because he was too busy trying not to go back into the bar and finished the stupid mer off, but he knew she was furious
"Why on earth would you do that! I had everything under control and you had to go and let your masculinity get in the the way!" he thought she was adorable when she was mad considering she was only about five foot tall and about as menacing as a door mouse,
"You realize he was a very important contact for us! And now that's all out the window just because you got Jealous! you know sometimes you need to-" Alias interrupted her by giving her a passionate kiss, she smacked him at first but then gave in when he grabbed her face in the way that always made her melt.
Pulling away, Breyela looked up at him "That's not always going to work you know. You cant just kiss your way out of an argument " he didn't believe her, "It worked that time." he didn't regret anything, no one talked about his moon that way, even if he was an important contact.
