The night was clear and crisp, warm soothing air blowing past accompanied by the sound of crickets (or was it cicadas that were merrily chirping into the night?) filling the area. All in all, it seemed like something out of a dream. Anica, along with the few other few people who ventured out to this plaza at night were the only humans there, not that the Romanian minded much.
The raven haired girl walked over to the fountain and stared; not admiring the spray from the nozzle and how the water curtained down into the small pool. No, she was far too busy looking at the several gold coins that shimmered under the moonlight and rippling surface. The hand not holding her travel bag twitched, itching to reach in and steal some. Just two or three.. dozen...
Anica groaned and dropped her bag, -perhaps harsher than necessary- onto the cobblestones and sat down on the ledge, back to the water. She still had a pounding headache from the last time she went drinking, her company at the time was... interesting to say the least. There was: I'm-racist-girly-boy and I-killed-my-mother-and-I'm-not-afraid-of-admitting-it girl.
Oddly enough, being around those two made her want to find Kiku and Mei again. Maybe it was because the three of them had all stuck their necks out for each other when they had been kidnapped and held hostage by that sorceress, or maybe she was just lonely. More likely than not a combination of the two.
Anica sighed and slumped forward on her knees, knowing all to well that she wouldn't be able to afford a inn, -surprise, surprise- and that unless she found a job she would be pretty much screwed. (No way was she pawning off her rapier, even if it was extremely tempting at times.)
Leaning back on her hands, she looked up to the night sky, the stars glittering as brightly as they always did, but still vastly outshone by the near-full moon.
"And my plan for action is... find a nice ally to sleep in and hope I don't get robbed. Goody..."
