"Rose, Miss Rose.
Actually just Rose."
She grinned then, shifting in place a bit.

[i]"What brings ya to this shithole, Rose?" [/i]
-
"Just about anything. Honestly I don't even know. Fate I guess?"
-
[i]"Right, fate brings you into a desert city during a sandstorm. -blam!- your luck," JT said with a sarcastic tone, as he approached Rose. "There's a bar not too far away, wanna get a drink until the storm blows over?" [/i]
-
She shrugged. "I'm underage but -blam!- it, might as well. Lead the way, Dusterino."
-
[i]"Shit how old are you?" [/i]
-
"Nearly 20."
-
[i]"Oh thank -blam!- I thought you were like seventeen or some shit like that." [/i]
-
"I mean I could pass as that young. Maybe." She shrugged then, grinning under the bandanna.
-
[i]"Th:' bartender won't give a shit regardless." [/i]
-
"Then good, that's decided. Lead the way?" She gestured with an arm to do so then.
-
[i]JT led her over to the tavern, walking through those flap door things and heading for the bar. He ordered himself a whiskey. [/i]
-
[spoiler]"flap door things" 10 out of -blam!-ing 10[/spoiler] Rose walked in after him, sauntering into the place with a certain swagger that could only be compared to a gunslinger. The girl was cocky, confident, and she flaunted it. Sitting down at the bar next to him, she ordered rum.
-
[i]JT took a few sips of his drink before turning to face Rose. "So, what's your story el bandito?" [/i]
-
"My story? Rough childhood, too much pressure, broke down and ran away. Found some 'people', they took me in, been with them since. Yours, Marshal?"
-
[i]"Grown in a tube, given to an experiment family, raised in a gang, girlfriend tried to kill me, ran away. -blam!-ed a lot of people, had too many kids to count and never fathered them, and I went to Cedyetica. From there to now, it's a blur." [/i]
-
"We then Mr Midlife Crisis, that's quite a story." She chuckled then, taking a sip of her glass now.
-
[i]"Nah, that was what... Twenty years ago now? I like t'think I got my shit somewhat together." [/i]
-
"Heh, if you say so..." She grinned then, setting her glass down.
-
[i]"What kinda shit do you do for fun around here?" [/i]
-
"Well, lets see. Usually sitting around, pillaging, scavenging, the likes."
-
[i]"Sounds fun, looter." [/i]
-
"Its what I do, and I do it as good as I can." She shrugged then.
-
[i]"Aye." [/i]
-
She went silent for a bit, before having to ask. "Not much of a talker, are you?"
-
[i]"Kid y'don't strike me as th' type that needs an old dude rambling in yer ear or flirtin' to high hell with ya. I got stories, but I ain't forcing none." [/i]
