Jess automatically began greedily devouring the bread and cheese, her stomach whining at the wonderful prospect of having something inside of it.

ooc- I'm gonna have Sebastian kind of fade out of the picture until me and Link get moving to Seadale. then I'll come back here with a reason for us to head north. Might bring in a NP(non-player character) in a minute. You guyz can just do whatever until I get backkk.
bic- Sebastian watched them for a moment before mumbling something about needing to contact someone and scooting off, throwing half-amused glances over his shoulder at Jess and Cambion. Maybe Cambion could come out of his shell for awhile.

((ok))
Cambion glared at Sebastian, as he watched him walk away. He was supposed to be alone with this human? He really had no interest in talking to her, but he didn't want to raise any suspicions, either. So, he said what he thought another human would say. "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Cambion. May I ask who you might be?" Using manners with humans was almost unbearable, but Cambion continued.

"Jeshica Amawante," Jess said, her mouth full of food. She swallowed before speaking again.
"Jessica Amarante, but everyone calls me Jess. Cambion's a pretty name. It sounds almost like a color."

It was all Cambion could do to keep from turning into a wolf and devouring Jess, but he kept his cool. "Yes, well....... So Jessic... Jess, how did you wind up on the streets?"

"I ran away from home," she said, reaching for another piece of bread, "To become a bard. I didn't do so well as I had hoped, though."

"Why did you run away? It seems that the conditions you were living, no matter what they might have been, would be better than starving to death. Would it not?"

"Oh, no!" Jess said, passionantly, dropping the food held in her hand, "If I had stayed THERE, I'd be married and pregnant by now! Oh, no, buddy, I would MUCH rather starve!"
She picked up her dropped piece of food and dusted it off.

Cambion's face showed a shadow of a smile. "Well, I see that you don't regret your decision at all." His eyes glinted with a slight admiration. "What do you plan to do now? If you would like, you may travel with our caravan. Though, I can't say that there isn't any danger in that." He mentally berrated himself for momentarily admiring a human. Although, she did have a strong will.

Jess paused her cheese binge, pensively.
"If I'm in a caravan, I'll be able to perform for lots of different types of people, right?"

"Yes, you will. You will be free to go as you please." Cambion's shadow of a smile grew a little.

"Allright!" Jess said, finishing the cheese, dusting off her lap, and standing, "Who's in charge in hye-"
She stumbled and fell back to the bench.
"Heh...who's in charge around here?"

"No one is really in charge. We decide where we want to go and we go there. If you want to join us, you are not required to check with anyone first."

"Yes, but doesn't that get a bit confusing?" she asked absentmindedly, "What if everyone wants to go someplace different?"

"We are a simple traveler's caravan. Everyone is here to travel where we're traveling. Not many of us are choosing when it comes to our destination." Cambion started to wonder when Sebastian would get back. This was probably the longest conversation he had had with a human, other than Sebastian, for a long time.
