Mingle - Emergency Potluck

Pumpkin Hollow Community Bulletin
WELCOME POTLUCK

Greetings, residents! Those more observant sorts among you may have noticed a large influx of very crowded ferries. In order to welcome our new residents en masse, Town Hall is holding a potluck in Town Square. Please bring a dish if you are able and make a new friend!

All of our newest arrivals need only bring themselves. We look forward to welcoming you all into our community, and may your lanterns always be lit.

This event is open to all! In light of our new influx of prospective players following the Great Sail Migration, we've decided to offer a small public event to tide everyone over until the TDM this weekend.

"Oh, it's a possibility of course, but what good does it do you to go around misusing the name of this town's favorite whore?" He can see the tease for what it is, and he must say he enjoys the banter.

She can only blink, the fact clearly a surprise to her-

"If you can get a lordship by whoring, I've been in the wrong business."

"We do happen to be lacking on the female side of things, if you're considering it. How are you with women?" He's not even really joking. He can't help everyone here.

"As for the lordship, that title came from my life before. But it does make for excellent marketing."
abhorrently: (consider.)

"I like women. Men too. Everyone, really - I don't have preferences."

Some people did, she knows, but not her. To her credit, she gives Erik's offer genuine thought, before politely shaking her head.

"Appreciate the kindness of the offer, but I don't think it's for me. My freewheeling nature shouldn't be paid, for I fear I'd lose some of the enjoyment if I thought about it like work instead of play. Still, it's good to know it's an option."

And to know there are those souls who might appreciate something casual. Gods forbid she accidentally lead someone into thinking there's a serious commitment when there's none.

"The same is true for me, and for many here." It's refreshing to meet someone new who is so willing to talk frankly about these things without blushing and stuttering.

"Not to worry, it certainly isn't for everyone. I venture to say you won't have any trouble at all attracting other free-wheeling partners if you wish them. I'd take you for a turn myself with no payment necessary."
abhorrently: (dusk.)

"Hearing that from a professional is high praise indeed. Though I hope you won't take offense if I delay that until I'm a just a touch more settled. If I let a handsome face distract me too much, I'll never get my feet under me."

Which really only means a day or two, but she knows herself.

"None at all. We'll have plenty of time to lift you off your feet later, once you're good and established." Wink.
