Blending In: Class 4, Period 3

Aly wasn't upset the island had decided to move.  Really.  She totally hadn't planned an entire class around 'blending in France.'

So inside she asked the class to meet her in the Danger Shop which was currently a tavern of the sort one would find in just about any Tortall town.  That is to say vaguely medieval, filled with barmaids and lower more scruffy sorts mixed in with a few fine gentlemen slumming it and a mix of craftsmen drinking, eating or otherwise engaged.  If anyone was familiar, this particular tavern looked a good bit like the old Dancing Dove in Corus, but few other than Aly probably realised.

Aly leaned against one of the walls, watching the students.  "Today we're going to practce fitting in to a place that most of you might be a bit unfamiliar with - those who are?  You have an easy week.  Enjoy it.  The name of this tavern is the Dancing Dove, and what I want you to do is dress the part after seeing what the other patrons are using.  Try to blend in with the patrons, don't start a fight, and find out who Rispah is.  Pair up or go on your own."

She grinned.  "Questions?"

Michael was listening, and also paying attention to his surroundings.

It took him a while, but Michael eventually found an outfit that seemed appropriate.

He knew bars, pubs, taverns, whatever you wanted to call this one. Michael was confident enough to go in on his own.

Dōjima listened attentively, occasionally glancing down at the box that held Romeo. Huh. Blending with a mousie would be tricky.

Before class, Dōjima walked up to Aly, a small box in her hands. "Ano, sensei? I have a problem," she said, holding it out. "Or, well, Romeo does, so he won't be participating today."

If you could quantify Jen's visceral reaction right about now, it would boil down to a very enthusiastic ZOMG.

. . . yes, with all the emphatic fonts and everything.

Now this was a time period she had never been to, and kind of would have loved to, because ZOMG.

After a few minutes of ZOMGing, she sobered enough to actually pay attention to her surroundings and put some of that Academy insertion training to work in getting a sense of the place and trying to plan a way to blend in.

He found something vaguely Ozian, though perhaps a little more on the rustic end of things and considered dirtying it up some.

People here had no idea how much cleaner things were.

Liir was not in a 'pairing' mood. As such, he slung the quiver with his broom over his shoulder so it looked proper enough before heading in.

He made as little noise as possible and headed for a dark corner.

Gwen listened attentively, frowning a little, since this probably mean skirts and those were awkward in a fight.

Gwen looked for clothes that were more on the faded and worn side.

Gwen nodded to the bartender for a drink, even if she had no intention of actually drinking it.
