The smokey, warm home of the wood miners guild. This is a thriving secondary industry, with the center of town being devoted to an elevator that descends into a large cavern in which a strange form of fungus grows that possesses many of the same traits of wood. The majority of the town works at some job related to the Rhook fungus, either in the mining or the processing of it. They build and sell beautiful Rhook furniture, carts, and other wood-based paraphernalia here. A number of auctions are held here, with the items often bearing a smokey scent or bit of ash - explained as having been recovered from the ashes of a recent fire.

All visitors must report to their customs entry, an easy diversion given that it is the only entry into the town. Provision of an adequate gift will result in their tin visa being stamped with a series of lines that looks like the rings of a tree. The police here are marginally more relaxed about proof of identification, but they are sharply on the lookout for arson and any property-related crimes. There is a smokey scent hanging in the air and a whole section of the city is little more than a warm, charred cinder. Questions about this earn the explanation of a dark mindset overcoming half the residents of that area only two months back and it worsened quickly into strife. One night, the area went up in flames and many of the residents perished with their homes and nearly the whole town was lost. Since then, they have been careful about fires and changes in personality both, with many residents currently residing in jail until their foul tempers dissipate.

I wonder... What color do you admire the most? I should like to find my hat in something neutral so it may match whatever I choose to wear with it.
jondrette: (smile)

I do like green. Oh! And blue! Rich colors. I once liked red, but now find myself having trouble with it. [Probably because of all that blood.]

You would match me? How charming! That is the sort of thing courting couples do, I have heard.
lecentre: (037)

[personal profile] lecentre 2013-12-10 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Green or blue it will be... And we will stay far from red.

[He hadn't... intended to say he would match her. Just... the rest of his clothing. But he wouldn't dare mention that now, so instead he just laughed.]

Is it, then? I should not know as I've never properly courted someone. But what a charming thought that is.
jondrette: (giggle)

[personal profile] jondrette 2013-12-10 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
That is what I have seen, yes. [She smiles kindly, his laugh infectious.] I have not, either. But I have seen it. Marius and his lark both wore black for some time.

[Bitterness? Just a bit.]

I find it hard to believe that a man such as you has not courted anyone.
lecentre: (039)

[personal profile] lecentre 2013-12-10 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, but Pontmercy and his black clothing, well.. I hardly find it difficult to match such drab choices.

[That's not to say their choice of matching blacks is trivialized, but... Black is such a standard, boring choice.]

A man such as myself, you say? A man such as myself has not courted anyone for any length of time, cherie. Therefore, I have not paid attention to how to properly court someone.
jondrette: (frown)

[personal profile] jondrette 2013-12-10 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Hush, he looks handsome in black.

[Well, dark green. Details.]

Then it should be a learning experience. [...Eponine.]
lecentre: (009)

[personal profile] lecentre 2013-12-10 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[.... Eponine.]

Is that so?
jondrette: (you're kind of an idiot)

[personal profile] jondrette 2013-12-10 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
It is.

[Uhoh. Courfeyrac...]
lecentre: (045)

[personal profile] lecentre 2013-12-10 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[...... Eponine. He stops and turns to her, taking her hand into his.]

Ma cherie, I mean to say that I am no good at courting for any lengthy periods of time... It is nothing on you, I do enjoy your company.

[How to put this delicately... He presses a kiss to her knuckles, watching her sincerely.]

But I enjoy many people's company equally.
jondrette: (sitting)

[personal profile] jondrette 2013-12-10 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[She watches him, her jaw dropping slightly as he speaks, but his words and actions... No, there is something missing. There must be.

So she smiles and laughs it off.]
It is alright, my dearest Reynaud. I am patient. We shall learn to court together. [She takes his hands in hers.]

I do not mind if you spend time with other ladies. [We all know that's a bold-faced lie.]
lecentre: (008)

[personal profile] lecentre 2013-12-10 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[..... he really needs to learn to be more firm in his word choice. Good lord.]

Eponine... I should not care to learn to court properly.

[Not at all.]
jondrette: (how happy some o'er other some can be)

[personal profile] jondrette 2013-12-10 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Then we shall do it our own way! To hell with rules and what is proper! I have long ago been removed from all that.

[She pulls herself closer to him.]

You have kind eyes.
