Snippet #1717941

"Gregson Wallace Aldridge the Third, Mercenary and Barber Extraordinaire, at your service!" He bowed, then rose. "I take it from your being on the ship you are also a part of the new crew for this fine vessel. May I have the pleasure of knowing your name?" About to answer, Ria was distracted by the blade he flicked into the air. Victoria watched it as it spun gracefully above their heads, then as the man caught it at precisely the right moments. He must have been doing that for quite awhile to execute it with such precision.

"Impressive handy work. High five?" Ria looked over to see yet another man from the cafe. Hm...weird.

Not waiting for Gregson to say anything, she introduced herself. "The name's Victoria, but call me Ria." She stuck out her hand, grinning all the while. The young woman loved adventures; and this seemed like a good one.
