...and Alexia starts down the stairs, doing a proper sneak.

Amaya can't hide the happiness at his words, but that happiness doesn't stop the embarrassed blush from deepening.
She gives him one last, long look, full of hot promise before ducking behind one of the screens. "We can negotiate that after we are married."
She peeks out around the screen, "Besides," her grin just a tad mischievous. "Waiting is good for you."
"Love?" he calls after her, doing his best not to let his thoughts of Yeah, but you're not the one who's going to have to get through another night with blue balls impinge on his tone, "there's something else there for you, if you'd like to try it on. I know it looks a little like lingerie, but it really is armor and you can wear it under something else [ooc]I think[/i] or make it appear like pretty much anything you want." a short, poignant pause, "and I'd really like to see you in it." he says this last most meaningfully and completely leave out the or out of it, for that matter.

Rygel chirps. "He's not a big fan of work. At least, work that doesn't end with him face first in a mango."
To Mina, he says, "Every armor has gaps. It has to, otherwise they couldn't move in it. There's always a gap at the back of the knee, for one. And if someone's quiet, you should remember you have four other senses. Watch the bottom of a door for shadows. Pay attention for the slight change in odor as a body gets close. Feel footsteps in the floor before they reach you. The best part of catching someone who thinks they're sneaky is that they never expect it."
Cassian can't help himself. He kisses her, fingers running through her hair, murmuring into her mouth, A moment later, he puts a bottle to her lips, a potion of cure moderate wounds. Something to get her mobile.
Then, arm around her, unwilling to let go, he moves to the stairs. He pauses, looking into her eyes. For the moment, he has her. She's alive. And he is a little frightened at how much that matters to him.
And then, he moves/

A pause, "Now where is my mango. Or at least a bug or something."
Even after Gravlax falls off of the message connection, Rygel is calm, unworried.
He can follow the path for about 500 feet when suddenly, at a blank wall, the cleaner path ends. Although the ledge continues on, it is obvious that, for some reason, the area between the dress shop and this point is frequently used.

Alexia looks over the wall for a hidden door.
She also checks at sewer's edge for any signs of a regular "ship" landing.
she says to Rygel.

Amaya darts back behind the screen and slips on...
The little kid looks up at Rygel utterly hopeful and absolutely certain that he will get nothing. Sadly,
Mina nods slowly, utterly serious in taking in the lesson.
The faint smile comes back to Crosael's lips as Cassian kisses her. "And really you. " She swallows down the potion, the wounds on her legs mending, letting her move a bit easier.
As the pair goes up the stairs as quickly as Crosael can manage her tail trails after them. She tries to hide it but every time her tail thumps against another step, there is a wince, and a growing anger in her golden eyes.
At the top of the stairs, Cassian picks up a delighted, quick clap from the upstairs room. And then footsteps, one light and unhurried, the other barely audible to Cassian's sensitive ears.
When the stairs creak, Crosael jumps, spitting out a word that means nothing. Then swearing when she doesn't turn invisible. she shakes her head. Still unsteady but pushing herself to move more quickly towards an exit that won't intersect with the path of those coming from upstairs.

Amaya glances back out from behind the screen, looking at him carefully. Then she nods, the cautious look truly feigned for his amusement.
Amaya darts back behind the screen and slips on...
The +3 leather armor that Azhar added glamer to. Which he mentioned and apparently believes totally looks like lingerie at the moment, but since it's glamered, it can look like anything that Amaya wants it to look like.

Cassian tries to get everyone squared away, and those interested in becoming thieves trained. The aim is to educate them well enough so they can support themselves with simple street crime. So after they feel safer, he'll teach them simple grifts, snatch and grabs, and picking pockets.
He looks into her strange eyes as he says this, utterly certain of the declaration and perhaps a little frightened at the depth of emotion he finds within himself.
He pushes her into the side room, his body against hers, shrouded in his cloak.
