She glanced at him, and tugged open the door. "It'll do. C'mon."

He held the door open for her, and followed her in.

A short man with a long beard and potbelly, wearing a stained white apron, came forward to greet them. "Good evening, may I help you?" He glanced between the two, clearly mystified by the curious pair. "Two rooms for the night," Masquerade murmured, holding out a handful of strange gold coins. The innkeeper examined them with great interested, and snatched them up, tucking them away into the folds of his apron. "Right this way, madam." He lead them to one side of the room, up a flight of old wooden stairs, and down a long hallway lined with closed doors. He paused before the two at the end, and dug out a pair of keys, handing one to each of them. "Call if you need something," he said, disappearing back down the stairs.

He nodded and waited for Masquerade to go into her room before going after the innkeeper. "Hold on, here." He pulled out enough coins for one room from the bag at his side. "Take this, and if I could see half of those coins..." He motioned towards the man's apron.

The innkeeper raised an eyebrow incredulously, but said nothing, and happily turned over half of the original coins, taking Tobias's payment before heading off again.
Masquerade closed her door behind her, locked it, and formed a simple Charter spell on it to keep it sealed. Then she carefully removed her bells and hung them on the back of the one small chair in the room. Her staff was leaned up next to the bandolier, and her pack dropped beside them. She plopped down on the bed and unlaced her boots, kicking them off and laying back with a sigh.

He returned to his own room, closely examining the coins. He kicked the door shut behind hims and set the coins on the bed, then returned to lock the door. He dropped his stuff in a corner and removed his vest, belt, and boots, then flopped onto the bed, looking at the coins again. He shrugged, dropped them in his coin bag, and closed his eyes. 'Ugggh, why is it so hot in here. I thought it cooled down outside?' He grumped to himself, rolling his pants up to his knees and removing his shirt. "Alright, now it's bed time." He sighed, laying face-down on the bed again.

Masquerade did not sleep, just lay there with her eyes closed, thinking. Finally she let herself relax, and drifted off into a light doze, waking up at every little noise. It was a long night.
OhOhSee; Morning now?

(( Sure, why not? c: ))
Tobias woke up to the sunlight filtering in through his window, casting four squares of light on his face and pillow. He groaned, and literally rolled out of bed, and picked himself up to go wash his face.

Masquerade had already been up and ready since before the sun had risen. She stepped from her room, closed the door, and turned to pound on the one next to it, calling the mercenary's name.

"Yes'm, I'm coming." He mumbled groggily, drying his face and opening the door, still dressed as he had been when he had gone to bed.

She raised at eyebrow at him, a slight smirk crossing her features. "All ready to go?" she asked in an overly cheerful voice, grinning.

"Uhm, no, but I can be in a minute." He rubbed an eye, turning around to fetch his shirt and boots.

She watched him go, still grinning. Humans were so strange in the morning, half-asleep and disoriented.

He tucked in his shirt and rolled down his pants, and sat at the corner of the bed, tying up his boots. Finally, he stood in front of the cracked mirror and knotted his headband back into place and slung his sword and pack over his back. "Awwright, I'm ready now."

"Then come on. We'll get breakfast downstairs and then get going." She turned and lead the way down the hall to the stairs, and the front room, which also served as a dining room. Most of the other guests were already there, sitting around at the various tables eating their meals. Masquerade plopped down at one empty table, shoving out the other chair with her foot.
