As an aside to Nergui, Aranno muttered "I'm glad the necromancer's gone. Her attitude was very different, but seeing her discourse with the cleric, she reminded me of my wife."

I never said that you were flirting. And yes, I've been travelling with the circus. New places with new people every few days. It works well enough, for now anyway. Oh, and I'm actually not as tall as most of my sisters. I can think of at least eight off of the top of my head who are quite a bit taller than I am.
Reyna continued to blush, and she smiled. It was so rare for people to actually ask about her, and try to understand anything about who she was.

What sort of place are you from? A town of half-giants?

Are you from a town where everyone is part dwarf? Like everyone else on this continent? she thought with much disdain.

Dwarves aren't that short. Morlius thought. I was only teasing you. Though, what do you do in the circus?

Usually, I'm one of those people who swallow fire and stuff like that. I don't know why that's so unusual and fascinating here. Reyna thought, though she was still clearly hurt by the Tiefling's comment. I know that I'm
different than most people here, but that doesn't mean I'm
not normal. Do people make fun of my sisters as often as they mock me? I answered your question, now you answer mine!

Huh? People make fun of you? And sisters?

Staring at Morlius, Aranno wondered aloud "The hell are you talking to, Morlius? You're the only one I see scrunching your face or anything. Unless you're talking to the Zeke, but despite his perpetually plain face, his eyes don't seem to be very aware of anything. Not right now, anyway."

We won't even be here that long, but for some reason, people just can't look past shallow things like our height. But they forget that they're just as strange to us as we are to them! Imagine my surprise when I was much taller and stronger than the first man I met...

Most women aren't nearly as tall or strong as you either. Even then, if we arm wrestled, I'd need a Restoration. That's always a plus. Plus, you're pretty, and unlike most women, you haven't run off yet.
Morlius displayed his tail to Reyna as he neared her a bit more.

Aranno raised an eyebrow as he watched Morlius move further away. "Aaaand there he goes, gentlemen. And madam. You know, I've got the vaguest feeling he's either really into whatever's going on in his head, or he really doesn't like me already."

Well, that would be counter-intuitive based on my current circumstances, but...
As she was starting to get a little creeped out by the Tiefling, Reyna could no longer keep from blurting out her thoughts.
"Wh- why are you showing my your tail...? That's a little...strange, and I'm not sure if I should be comfortable with this situation, and-" she said before she realized she was talking out loud, and clamped a hand over her mouth to keep anything else from coming out. She also took exactly two steps away from the Tiefling out of instinct.

Ezekiel suddenly came to attention.
"Morlius! Was that your name? You have maps? Of the eastern continent perhaps?"

"Sorry!" Morlius blurted as he hid his tail again. "Didn't mean to freak you out!"

"No, it's just that I wasn't sure what that meant... You people and all your strange...what's the word? Innuendos? And it's harder for me to understand Tiefling gestures anyway, so I really have no idea what they mean."
Could we just sort of forget what's happended so far, and start over? Maybe we'll start off on the right foot this time.

That was in all seriousness. I didn't think telepathy could be misinterpreted.

So, when you made that comment about how I hadn't run away yet... Does that mean that others don't give you a chance? Are you lonely?

Pretty much. Though, no one at home seems to mind since I've lived there all my life. Most people I meet are fairly scared. I have horns, you know.

Ezekiel got up and was about to tap on the tiefling's shoulder when he noticed the eye contact between him and one of the circus performers. That made him hesitate a moment before grabbing his shoulder anyways.
"Map seller. Map buyer. I could use your guidance when you're done."
He sat back down, figuring another 1d4 to his next charisma roll might help.
