Hazuki took a few silver coins from the newly handed pouch and slid them into his pocket then tucked the rest of the pouch carefully into the side of his leather bag.
He gave a lazy wave to the two receptionist girls. "See ya."
The polite one smiled and bowed slightly.
The loud one grinned and shouted, "Come back if ye get broke again, Rich Boy!"
Hazuki pulled the door open and stepped out into the warm morning air.
"I thought you were still sleeping."
"Whoa!!" Hazuki jumped as Ridan casually floated up from behind him. "Damn it, Ridan! You're gonna give me a heart attack one day!"
Ridan stared at him.
Not speaking.
Just… stared.
Hazuki stared back.
"…What?"
Ridan slowly descended and perched himself onto Hazuki's shoulder like a bored pigeon.
"Where'd you go before?" Hazuki asked, brushing off his coat.
"Nothing. Just floatin' around, checkin' dwarven babes. You were sleeping like the dead and I got bored."
"Oh… Right...sorry."
