A cold, crisp fall's day was perfect for moving in, thought Lena as she carries boxes up to her room at the Hafenstadt Tavern. She was now a permanent tenant there, paying it off by working at the bar. She set a bag of her belongings down onto an aged wooden dresser in the small flat. She continued to think about her past, only if she knew why she was brought here, and what was their purpose in leaving her here, in this place, at this time... Unpacking her only possessions, she runs her hands over her clothes, pictures and tokens of her past... of Volos, Greece, of the place she once she called home...

Rach had been walking the halls, key in one hand. His own home was being repainted, not by himself of course...he could imagine spilling paint in his eyes and going temporarily blind. But Rach couldn't stand the smell of fresh paint...it nauseated him to an extreme level. So he had come to the inn and bought a room for the night. He should have assumed that he was about to meet a poor fate...he had yet to hurt himself this week.
He tripped, at the top of the stairs. His hands flew up as he landed with a smack on the floor, his face hitting the ground so hard that his glasses were instantly bent out of shape. The loud smack resounded through the halls, Rach himself to speechless to exclaim something.

A loud thump in the hall diverted Lena's attention from her thoughts. She runs into the hall and finds a young man sprawled face down on the floor at the top of the flight of stairs. Lena hurries over to him and attempts to help him up. "Are you okay??? I heard a big bang so i came out to see what it was... Are you hurt???"............

The floor wasn't comfortable and Rach was more than pleased to have someone help him up from the ground. "I'm fine, quite fine," he assured her with his crooked smile, moving to sit down at the top of the stairs...instead of lying down. He removed his glasses from his nose, beginning to bend them gently in his hands to correct what had happened. "I simply tripped...every day occurance unfortunately..."

Surprised by his natural coolness (for he just slammed his face onto the polished wood floor), she puts out a hand in an invitation to help him up. "Well, let me introduce myself: My name's Lena," she said lightly as she pulls him up.. She smiles as she shakes her hand, happy to have met someone in Lamiere.

"Thank you," Rach smiled as he took her hand and used it to get to his feet. He stared at his glasses, believing them to be effectively mended and he slipped them back into place. He then adjusted his shirt and clothing, which had become rumpled in his most recent tumble. "I'm Rach Jaworski but you can simply call be Rach," he said, returning the introduction.

"well," said Lena, "its nice to meet you Rach. I finally meet someone in Lamiere! Where do you reside? Hey you must be famished, want to go get something to eat???"... Once she realized that she had been rambling on and interrogating Rach, Lena's facial expression moved from happy and excited, to apoligetic and calm. Quickly hiding her face in her hands to cover her embarassment, she said "I am SO sorry! I do this all the time!" Unable to think of what else to say she continued to veil her face from revealing her blushing state.

"It's fine," Rach assured her with a gentle smile. "Talk all you want, I have been told that I'm an excellent listener." He plucked some hair from beneath his glasses, pushing the longer strands behind his ears to keep it out of the way during future conversation. "I currently reside nearer to the hospital but due to some renovations I've been forced out for the evening..." He stared at her a moment, "I am quite hungry now that you mention it..." He wasn't a very good cook and he wasn't too familiar with the area...getting food tonight was going to be difficult.

"So lets get something to eat! I'm starved!" said Lena, just after her stomach made a loud manly growl. "We can eat down at the bar, I hafta work down there in an hour or two so its quite convienient..." They both make their way down the flight of stairs, Lena trying to watch for Rach, incase he should stumble again...

Rach chuckled as he watched how closely she examined his flight down the stairs. "I'm not a toddler," he chided her with a warm smile. "I'm just a little clumsy, that's all." He smiled again and motioned for her to look away from his feet. He followed her down the stairs with the same gentle smile, amused with the caution she was taking with him. Not many people actually cared that he seemed to have two left feet...along with two left hands and a hell of a lot of scars.

Embarrased that Rach noticed her watching him, Lena quickly guided them to two stools at the bar. Both ordering their drinks they look down at their menus. Lena was happy he wasn't so wary of her, for her bright green eyes contrasting with her firery strawberry blonde hair stood out so much, and he seemed like one who didn't like to have too much attention drawn to him. "So... What drew YOU to Lamiere?"

Silently scanning Rach's face for some kind of reaction to the question posed, Lena waited in the awkward silence. She quickly glanced down at her drink, chugged it, and ordered a Spiriteuse, hoping that her actions would disguise her uncomfortable state...

((sry this took me so dang long ^_^ ) Rach looked up from his menu, which just happened to be a meagar slip of paper with some simply dishes printed on both sides. He was still undecided as to what to eat, he wasn't exactly the best person to make decisions on the spot. "I'm sorry..." he said, blinking blankly. He tried to remember the question, remembering it finally. "I came here for work...I need one to get through my life so I had to come somewhere where I could find a position."

Lena thought to herself for a moment and then suddenly an idea came to her. "I KNOW!" she suddenly said in an outburst of emotion. "You could work here! At the Inn! I mean we have bar tending positions open, but what we really need is someone to run the clerk desk of the Inn. Y'know? Taking care of the guests, giving them rooms and supplies! That sort of thing..." Excited about him needing a job, and being able to offer several to him gave Lena a great sense of accomplishment. If it was what Rach really wanted, she was glad to grant him his humble wish.

Rach dropped the menu, lifting his hands and waving them back and forth as the blood rose in his cheeks. "No, I'm afraid you've got the wrong idea," he said with a surprised smile. "I came to Lamiere for a job and I found one." He smiled weakly, "I'm a doctor at the hospital nearest here...part of the psychiatric ward..." He looked around the tavern, "Though I appreciate the kind offer from someone I have just met I must decline...I have quite the busy schedule already."
