Hmm...

[ It's not often that your resident Witcher comes asking for help on the network. Well, he's not exactly asking for help so to speak but he's definitely in a quandary.

Standing outside one of the spires, Roach behind him trying to graze from the earth below her feet. ]

Now, how do you get a horse up a flight of stairs?

[ Now that things seemed to have settled down and peoples belongings were no longer trying to kill everyone, Geralt thought it was high time he actually took up abode inside one of the buildings... Y'know, instead of roughing it as he had been. ]

[she nods at his words]

She probably wouldn't. I've heard of horses riding on hills and even mountains, but a flight of stairs?

[and he should move into it so she can visit as much as she pleases. which would be often]

I don't think so, but just between you and me? [she leans in closer and whispers] Some of them can be kinda stuffy.

Roach has ridden me through battlefields and more.

[ Though, up a flight of stairs might be too much. Seems strange right?

Geralt smiles a little, amused by Tinya's antics, leaning in like the stuffy neighbours are actually listening. ]

Still, I'll check this place out though. What floors have empty places again?

Wow. Your horse must be really hard to spook.

[just a little strange, yes.

and she smiles back and stays leaning in, still speaking in a whisper]

301 is open and it has two bedrooms. You could get a roommate or use the other room for other stuff.

Not really. Roach is easily spooked by the right kinda thing. Battles with blades and weapons aren't so spooky after the ghosts, ghouls and wraiths shes seen.

[ Geralt is still charmed by her little actions. ]

Hmm, think I'll pass on the roommate but a place with extra space does sound appealing.

[ Geralt pauses for a moment as he thinks. ]

Which floor do you live on?

Oooh. Fortunately, we don't have any of the latter things here. That I know of, anyway. Though, I wouldn't put it past the aliens to conjure a few of them.

[she's a good girl. or at least she tries to be. despite what her mother might have said or thought]

So, see? There you go! And you'll have to let me know as soon as you settle in so I can come and visit.

[she waits]

I'm on the seventh floor in the second apartment.

Aliens?

[ You'll have to forgive him, he doesn't understand what you mean. There aren't any aliens where he's from, in fact, the word simply means 'foreign' to Geralt, so excuse his confused expression. ]

Sure, why not.

[ See! He's loosening up around you! ]

I'll see which ones are close by?

Oh, sorry! Most people here call them gods.

[but religion died out on most planets centuries ago and she refuses to call them "gods." for one thing, they haven't earned the respect needed for such a title]

Okay, great! I'll bring something to eat. Do you like sweet things or savory things?

[he is! and she's very happy he is]

That sounds good.
