[Her first mission. And with her brother, no less! It's an entirely nerve-wracking experience for Seles, and so she's been notably silent the whole time up until now. Her mind is focused on the task at hand, and honestly, she finds no problem with it-- it's worry that she'll mess something up that has her held back. Worried.

Nervous.

Ahh... But she's strong, isn't she? Tokunaga said it himself. He may be kind enough to try and make her feel better about some things, but she knew him long enough to tell when he was lying. And those words... they weren't a lie. She didn't have to be stable or healthy to be strong. Even if it's not as strong as she'd like to be.

But her thoughts are getting distracted here, and she shifts on the edge of the bed of the simple inn to slide a small dagger into place beneath the garter on her right leg.

She drops the dress again, standing from the bed and grabbing her newly styled (but still plenty useful) handbag from it as well. She had all that she needed inside, and magic on her person, but she didn't want to be stuck in a situation without some sort of a backup if her purse was snatched away. (She can think ahead like this!) She was dressed to look the part, at least, in a long, western dress nice enough to go out in (she was very determined to not wear anything she deemed looked 'low class'), and a surprisingly simple hat.]

How are we going to find them? [She finally speaks up, with a bit of hesitation because she's so worried about saying something that may have a simple answer. That may seem stupid. She can't seem to look at Zelos while she asks, for this reason, brushing at the ruffles on her front instead.] All I've heard since our arrival is that they're 'ruthless'.

Threaded | Flat

[Zelos was already hating this mission idea. Sending his sister into a dangerous mission with con-men? This seemed like a terrible idea. ]

[Then again, after finding out his roommate is hosting some evil thing and may one day be taken over if they don't find a solution-- this might be a nice distraction that isn't sex and lots of liquor.]

[He meanwhile is wearing proper clothes that match the station that Seles picked out, since there was no point in not going as siblings. A suit with tailcoats, a top hate, a cane that was actually a sword. The clothes certainly were comfortable, and they suited him well and he knew how to wear them- though it sure did feel weird after not being dressed higher class for months and months. ]

[At her question, he considers while looking out the window.]

With how we look, easiest way would be to get robbed ourselves.
