Sera opened it, looking down at her in surprise. "Oh, back already?"

(Bruh my phone didn’t charge when I was asleep?? And I didn’t notice until I went to check out of my hotel rip)

“Hey! Um…” Ky offered a little smile. “Tomhas and I are going to the village. He thought you and Rickard may want to join? No pressure, though! It’s okay if not. Up to you.”

(Aw that sucks!)

Sera looked back toward Rickard, who looked down at his hands, blushing.
"That could be fun," he said. "If you want to go, I mean."
"I'd love to," Sera said. "Are we leaving now?"

"We'd be happy to join you." She smiled. "We'll be down after we've gotten our cloaks."

“Sounds good!” Ky grinned at her, then looked past her and gave a little wave to Rickard. “See you guys soon!”

Ky grinned again and turned down the hall, starting for the stairs.

Ky decided she would rather risk the soldiers on the wall to the soldiers in the barracks and made her way outside, briefly glancing at a chicken as it scratched along the ground in front of her, hoping that Captain Bay had already gone back to his post.

Bay had indeed gone back go his post; he was up on the wall with the rest.

Ky spotted him, then immediately ducked her head and lowered her gaze in hopes that the soldiers wouldn’t notice her or at the very least wouldn’t interact, as she made a beeline for him.

They did, greeting her dutifully. Bay looked over as he saw her. "Welcome back," he said with a nod.

She blushed and reluctantly returned the acknowledgements as she walked quickly to him. She smiled hesitantly. “Thanks! Um… Tomhas and I are going to go into the village now to get me armor and um he asked me to come ask you for a guard… if that’s okay?”
