To say she was a little startled by someone not part of their conversation taking her hand was a bit of an understatement. But, that faded immediately into utter delight at who it was. Not noticing, or caring, that it squealed out a bit more exuberantly than normal, Ninkasi tipped her head up and with a bright smile said, “Hi!!” She was still a little buzzing. Damn all that whiskey. Damn those Celts. Especially the Irish ones.
“I was looking for you, too. Well, I started to, after I got a drink... but then I saw Reshi and Nergal... and she saw me... and there was this whole moment of.. hrm what to do... And I decided that was a huge bucket full of nope, not going there, so.... did a 180, to avoid her... which happened to bring me back to the bar.”
Finally, she took a decent breath. “I haven't been here long, though. Got held up... How about you?”
