((Too many distractions! They're ruining my life!!)

As the girl came out of her hiding place, Jinx smiled, actually purring in delight. "See, that wasn't so hard, was it?" Granted, the hadn't really come out of the tree, but it was a start, he supposed. With that out of the way, he turned to Skeptic and Jack, having heard their previous conversation while he was up in the tree. Those ears weren't just for decoration, you know.

"By the way, I have to agree with you. People with beards are not the most pleasant you can come across. Of course, I've only personally met two men with beards, so my judegement my not be the most accurate." Shrugging, he looked up for no apparent reason, only now noticing how dark it was getting. "While I highly doubt any crazies would be crazier than this group, Skeptic's right. We should try to find shelter. Follow me." The theif's expression changed from playful to psychotic. "If you can keep up, that is..."

On that note, he bolted off through the trees, zig-zagging every now and then as if he was being chased by someone. Jinx liked to think that something about the night just brought out the animal in him. It actually wasn't long before he came to a halt in front of a cave, not even breathing hard. His air of semi-sanity returning, the cat-like humanoid strode into the cave, his own personal lair. There wasn't much furniture, just a few cushioned chairs and a pile of blankets, one of which had been converted into a hamock. The rest of the space was occupied by pile upon pile of stolen treasures, all sparkling in the dim light of the a few glowing crystals in the cave wall. "Well, make yourselves at home," he announced, not even turning to see if the others had followed him. Jinx simply removed the necklace he'd procured earlier in the day and tossed it onto a chair before throwing himself into his hamock. "What's mine is yours, so long as it doesn't leave this cave."
