A Night in the Hedge

Navaja walks nervously into the lounge of the Four Seasons, hoping that the summer king is not around, since their last meeting didn't go very well. She's also looking for someone named 'Arch.' Not sure what he or she looks like, she's scanning for any changeling at all really.

She's wearing jeans, a sweat shirt, and sturdy shoes, and carrying a cheap backpack.

Al-Adin bursts through the door. "Got lost again." He smiles at Nightfall. He heads over to Arch. "Flower Courier Al-Adin, at your service Arch." He seems extremely pleased with himself.

She sees Nightfall and watches him walk to the person by the pillar. She nods in their direction, and whispers to John "Well, one of them is probably it. You sure you're not coming just to protect me? I can take care of myself." She smiles. "I mean, with what's been going on, I wouldn't go myself, except that there might be stuff I can learn that I can use to take care of myself even better."

(forgot to put this in)

Navaja walks over to the two by the pillar. She says quietly to them, "Is one of you two Arch?" She nervously shifts her bag from one shoulder to the other and glances at John. They've had mixed results meeting other changelings in the city.

~ Appearance- Medium height, male, Medium length brown hair tied back into a ponytail - Cheap black buisness suit with a sabre by his side
Mien : Pitch black eyes belch forth shadow, which flows down his cheeks like a wispy cloud
jaw is filled with long, thin fangs, which show only when he smiles - Courtless ~

Aldamoth walks in slowly, trying not to attract too much attention. He was new here, and while he had managed to overhear mention of this expedition, he was not sure if he was welcome to tag along, or was it invitation only. "Only one way to find out" he mumbled under his breath as he closed in on the group gathering in the lounge

Betony had almost decided not to come. She hadn't left the last meeting in a particularly dignified manner. She had spent days trying to just get the courage to leave her room. But Autumn was about controlling fear and in the end blind paranioa and embaresment were not suficent reason to hide.
So Betony Rue the four seasons hotel, dressed as she had before, with her bag.

Silas walked in wearing his usual get up with a white waist coat over the top. His hair was out of place, more than usual, and he joined the crowd.
He'd been tipped off by another member of the Autumn court, gods know why, but he'd came all the same. Such commotion was sure to be...interesting.

Aldamoth takes one of papers from the smiling changeling, and glances over it.
"Will we be assisting in your hunt m'lady, or is our path more benign?" He asks with a grin on his face.

Silas came up at took a paper.
"And what, pray tell, are we to do?"
He looked closely at the paper been given.

Kyle grabs his backpack (holding three different kinds of gardening clippers, one steel, one cold iron and one silver as well as matching hand spades for each wrapped in a couple of plastic bags in the bottom) before beeping his car alarm and heading to the elevator up into the lobby of the 'Seasons. The Coyote checks his appearance in the full-length mirrors that cover the inside of the mobile room, and he liked what he saw. The black jeans and tight black shirt gave him nice, clean lines, and he was wearing his exploring boots, tough suckers that gave him a delightfully safe feeling when tromping through the underbrush.
Kyle wondered what kind of Goblin fruit he'd find this trip while he waited for the golden doors to open. Once they did, he saw the clustered changelings speaking amongst themselves. He made his way across the room, his boots making clickity-click noises as he crossed the enormous lobby. He smiles as he greets the improvised motley, "Sorry I'm late, I just had to finish some things up at the office." He snags a map before they all go to someone else. When he realizes that some of the locations are some distance away he adds, "I can give some people a ride if they need it."

Aldamoth smiled, he had been hoping someone would have room for him in there vehicle, public transport was so unreliable these days.
He turned to Kyle, "If you do not mind the company, i will take you up on the that offer" he say's with a sheepish grin

Kyle looks the other Changeling up and down before answering. "Surrre, just as long as you don't poke holes in the upholstery. There's two more spaces, three if you're really friendly." He extends one of his hands to the man, "The name's Kyle."

"Aldamoth De'taldier, and thanks for the lift, I appreciate it" he say's whilst shaking the changelings hand.
He turns to Arch "As a Baron of the lesser ones, it is both my honor and duty to assist you if you so wish it, m'lady" he say's, with a grin almost seems sincere

Kyle's ears perk up at Arch's suggestion. Hunting poisonous Boojums sounds much more interesting than gardening.

Navaja glances over the directions. She says to Kyle "Is your ride full up?" pointing at herself and John. She feels under prepared, but it's a feeling she's gotten used to, and so far it's turned out okay even if it doesn't make things easy. "And is anyone else just trying to get the lay of the land? I'm not really into a guided tour, but I want to know what the hedge is like around here. Knowing is half the battle, after all." The way she says the last part would indicate to the observant that she feels that knowing is considerably more then half the battle.

"I may be wrong" Silas voiced out his opinion to the girl who clearly was being silly, "But chasing around creatures that have venom could be quite...dangerous, and not something that girls should trouble themselves with." He let off a smile.

"Yes, I do. Thank you for offering." Betony replied. She shouldered her bag and walked over to the carpool group she would be going with.

Adin smiles. "I'll go with Arch. Come on Nightfall, it'll be an Adventure!"

Kyle didn't have any problem with girls fighting... each other... possibly wrestling... in mud... or honey, even...

Kyle blinked. Dude, focus! You can visit the Honeytrap Club later. Damnit, to top it all off now he was hungry.

Kyle winks at the Darkling, "Nah, there's always room for a pretty girl in the backseat of my car. And her beau, too."

Unless someone holds him up, he brings his contemporaries down into the 'Season's Underground parking to show off...

Silas stuck with an easier way of travel, he'd get a cab when he got out of here.
But he muttered to himself when he left something about "Women today..."

Navaja walks over to Brandon. "Unless John has other preferences, I'd love to catch a ride with a fellow autumn courtier. I'm new around here, and maybe you could give me Local Autumn Court 101 while we ride, if the other folks wouldn't be too bored by politics."

She glances from her map to Brandon's "You know where we're going? John here knows how good I am at following a map." She laughs a little.

John shrugged. "I don't have a problem with Autumn." He said simply with his arms crossed. He smiled a little when she mentioned maps. She wasn't that bad, she just had a mostly unreliable map as far as he could tell.

"Oooh! Spiders!" Al-Adin is bouncing.

Silas thought to himself for a few minutes.
"I think i'll stay and meet this 'Tiffany'" Silas went to lean againest anything that could support him. "You not knowing the sizes of these spiders puts me off somewhat."
