Buying a house (open)

[Deleted]

Bandit stared through the window of the run down estate agents as he counted the gold in his pockets wondering how much he would have to spend in order to just get somewhere to call his own all he wanted was somewhere to rest and contemplate how he was going to survive in this ever changing new world he had found himself in, Sure he had the funds to survive  he also had the means to make sure he wouldn't want for anything ever again yet the more he looked in the window the more he felt as if he was making the worse decision in his life.

Working up the courage after an hour or so of staring at a small house in the northern district of the slums Bandit walked into the building and strolled towards a short man behind a desk placing 10 gold pieces on the desk he stated " I wish to buy the old house in the northern end of the slums I have the money to pay for it and I would like to move in right away." Carefully watching the man study him as though he were some sort of the lunatic he smiled and pointed at the house he wished to purchase, the estate agent asked him to wait for an hour or two while he sorted out the essential paperwork an deeds tot he property after sometime had passed the estate agent returned with the deeds and the keys to the property.

Bandit grinned happily as he signed the deeds and took the keys from the estate agents hands and left a slight skip in his step though it pained him due to his damaged knee ignoring the pain he continued to think of the warm fire he was going to be sat in front of watching the flames flicker and roar, Mostly his head was full of thoughts of the beautiful older woman he was now courting as thoughts of Fayton's smile sprung into his head he couldn't help but yell "MANGO RUM IS DELICIOUS."

Eventually reaching the doorstep to his newly bought house grinned as opened the door and walked inside thinking of how he would tell Fayton that he now had a house of his own a place to call his, His ow private escape from his new and frightening environment.

"Shit it's cold out. Akatosh damn it all." Twitchy wandered the Old City Quarter looking for a place to stay while this freak coldfront passes by which shoul only be a few days seeing the weird weather here, he was walking by as he heard someone shout something about mangos and go inside their house. He decided to go up and knock on the door.

Sitting down on the moth eaten thread bare armchair Bandit attempted to make himself comfy just as he heard someone or something knock on his door getting up grumbling as he walked to see who it was, looking through the eye hole in the door he noticed what looked like a weird upright cat shrugging as he opened the door and asked in a manner that didn't make it seem as thought he creature had disturbed him "Can I help you?"

Bandit wasn't sure whether this new being was a threat or not so he stood in the door way his left hand gripping the hilt of his rapier ready for a fight if it should ever come to that.

"Yeah uh, I was won-" Twitchy blew his nose into a tissue. "I was wondering if I could stay here? Even if it's just for the night. I was not prepared for this, sniffle, cold. I will not be a burden, I even have my own food, I just want some warmth." Twitchy said through sharp shivering teeth and a huddled posture. He tried to give the most sincere of smiles.

Bandit smiled at the weird cat like being he waved him inside as he pointed at his feet motioning for him to remove his footwear Bandit was weird like that he liked everything neat and tidy even though he was a pirate he was still allowed to be prideful and take pride in his possessions. "Come on in then but take ye shoes or boots off I take pride in me possession an' I wain't let no one ruin that."

Moving aside to allow the stranger inside Bandit headed back to his comfy chair as he shouted down the hall "Close the door after ye done." Getting comfy in the arm chair again he imagined mango juice in his rum as it appeared in his hands smiling as he began drinking it enjoying the flavour.

eventually getting up he looked at the open fireplace and pulled a lighter form his pocket and lit the fire sitting back down as he watched flames spring to life and roar as the wood in the fireplace began to crackle and burn. Bandit loved fire almost as much as he loved Rum infact it was one of the only things he could enjoy with out the aid or company of Rum or any company at all.

Twitchy turned around and closed the door and then looked down at his feet and crouched and took off the flimsy footwraps he put together at the last second to protect his feet from the warmth stealing ground. He took the flimsy things and stuck them in his bag to keep them of the nice man's floor he then quickly skittered over to the fireplace where he took off his bag, cloak and then the twin sickles he tossed over with the rest of his stuff in a pile. Twitchy then curled up in the hearth with his back to the fire and his face to the swashbuckler. "So you look like a sea thief or uhh pirates as you say here but yet you have majiicks, from my understanding that is not very common. Are you also a mage? Oh sorry I did not mean to pry." Twitchy immediately regretted saying that, he was already intruding on his house and now his life too? He gave himself a mental facepalm for that.

Pondering the question as he set the bottle on the ground Bandit thought long and hard as he tried to come up with an answer for the odd question that had been given to him by his new guest matter of factly he didn't even know how he was able to do what he did in the first place it just happened one day when he was a child, disappearing into that distant memory over two centuries ago. smiling as he snapped out of his trance like state he faced Twitchy and shrugged "I don' kno' ow' I do it but I jus' do I'm no fancy mage that you speak of jus' a common garden variety pirate."

Leaning back in his chair as he picked up the mango flavoured rum he thought of how he was goin' to decorate his new home after all it wasn't the worlds most amazing place to live infact it was described by the man who sold it to him as the most pitiful excuse for a house in the entire city but Bandit was determined to make it his plus he had more than enough gold to fix the place up properly which is what made him smile the most.
