((Ok, sorry for my character seeming like an a** but I really have to ask, how have both your characters killed before? Denko himself said, it'd be nearly impossible to have killed in the enclosed enviroment your characters have lived in.))
"I'd have to disagree my dear, it has alot to do with your situation. You're a woman, it doesn't matter how your society treated you, in the outside world, you're second class. You will be underestimated, and in many cases for good reason."

(Don't worry about it, but yes Andrea has killed before..but only in self-defense.)
"Then don't be like the outside world: do not underestimate either of us..or that could be your downfall.." she said quietly as she watched him carefully with her green eyes, her fingers still itching to swing her sword around. But she decided against it: it would be bad to spill blood, especially here when he was neither friend nor foe.

 There are no such things as coincidence.((Nah, it'd be boring if there wasn't a character to get on Evacy's nerves. I'm having a good laugh.
As for the killing part... I'll hint, but I don't want the secret known. Not yet, at least.))
"All the better to deceive arrogant, cheeky men, right?" Evacy asked, still smiling. But she knew what Pix was saying was true. Her mother had told her when she was old enough to understand. She sighed. Evacy knew that she might be giving up the freedom to do most of the things that she did underground. "But lower the class, the less you're noticed, aren't I right, Mister Expertise-of-the-Above?" There is only hitsuzen

Pix smiled, they were starting to see how the world worked, "Exactly dears. Take advantage of that fact. Keep your emotions under control though. Don't advertise that you carry weaponry. You all need a lesson in cloak and dagger work. You neither know much of the situation of here, nor how your friend has affected, who he's made enemies with. It would not be good to advertise where you're from, our skin already marks us as strange, no need to give further clues."

There are no such things as coincidence."Oh yes, next thing you know, we changed from a group looking for Tanner and nice suitable ground to live in - what was that called? A search party? - to a spy/mercenary party. Very ideal." Evacy rolled her eyes. "I'm not a complete idiot. I know my stuff." But inside, Evacy sighed. She had a feeling that no matter how much sun they were exposed to, she was going to stay nocturnal. 'All the better for me, really. And if that mercenary hasn't noticed my daggers, then my cloak work is more than good.' She thought, slightly smug. There is only hitsuzen

Andrea turned her head to the side while crossing her arms, feeling cross towards Pix. "Hrmm..." she lightly blew some of her spikey hair away from her face as she listened to what he had to say, hating the fact that he was right.

Cian placed her hand to her hip, leaning down to one side. She was unusually quiet, usually she’d want to be part of the action on what was being said, but she found herself looking out in the distance, their conversation was a background noise to her. It was nice being here, it made a great big change than underground, but of course, it was never what she had imagined.
She closed her eyes and pushed her long blond hair back, the few locks managed to slip from the capture of her hair tie.

The green eyed one seemed to understand what he was saying, but the other one was just bothering him now, "Exactly. If you tell people you're mercs, than the light skin can be explained by saying you work during the night. No one has found the underground but think what they would say about it. You live underground, never go into the sun, have extremely pale skin, you'd be sure to get a whole group of crazies calling you either witches or vampires, would you want that for your people?"

"No, I wouldn't." Evacy sighed reluctantly. "And I never said I'd tell anyone, now did I?" she flicked a lock of her black hair out of her half amused eyes. She smiled, a new idea sprouting in her head. "I wouldn't mind being called a vampire. That's what I look like, right? But then I'd need a familiar, flight, and a thirst for blood. Oops, I already have that. So, a familiar and flight. You don't happen to have an owl or a cat, do you?" Evacy shrugged, her playful nature dying for the moment. There is only hitsuzen

((Well she has green text xD))
"Arrogance will get you nowhere quick." He chided her, waving a finger. "And now, I've had enough of this tension. Old man, you have any booze for us, I'm sure everybody's much more forth coming with a little alcohol in their system."

Kai chose to end the rather awkward conversation right now. He didn't want to take any side, so he simply said, "While it's true we are really just a search party in most senses of the word, and our fighting expertise is rather debatable and in question, what matters is that we're going to try."
Looking down, he popped his fingers again, afterwards massaging his palms.
He glanced up at Pix. Pix's mercenary story sounded made up, but what did he know? After all, he had lived underground his whole life, as had his father and his father's father and so on... Maybe Pix was telling the truth. There were definitely a lot of unresolved questions Kai had on his mind on this point. But he brushed them aside for now.
At this point, Lucas was satisfied. They were definitely going. Tanner's going to be very happy that I got some people. Skilled or not, it's better than nothing. "Well then, we're definitely not leaving now," he said, answering a previous question that got caught up in the argument. "We're going to stay the night here and travel at dawn."
Lucas sat in a chair and ate the remnants of the bread on the table, the conversation had worked up his appetite.
"I would suggest you all get some sleep, but that's your decision."

"No booze then?" He shook his head in disapointment, " and I'm guessing the chances of having some nice female company tonight are rather slim as well... Where do I sleep?"

There are no such things as coincidence."Outside where you won't accidentally find yourself decapitated." Evacy said rather cheerfully, despite the threat she spoke. "I'm going to catch some sleep so that I can torture my eyes with the morning sun tomorrow." But before she could sleep, her memory of her mother plagued her. 'She wasted away, longing for the cursed sunlight. I'll never understand it.' There is only hitsuzen

Cian threw her arms behind her head, the strong voice of Kai earned her attention. Finally, some form of direction, she felt silly just standing there with her eyes closed. After Kai had spoken, Pix shortly commented, the woman couldn’t help but scoffed in a mocking way to his tone, as if her scoff covered up her words of ‘No chance.’

"I'll take that as a hint," he said equally cheerfully heading torwards the door.
