A New Life

[Nox]

Nox let the comment that tickled his lips go. He was pretty sure Carmen wouldn't appreciate his Yes, mother. Though it would have been meant like a compliment and not anything more but he kept it shut and the coffee that Raffe brought with his fully clothed self made that easier as he picked up the black coffee and took a long sip before nodding.

Carmen made the offer and Nox grinned at the prospect. A roof over his head, and a job. He wasn't looking for more, now he could survive and hunt monsters. He didn't care if the Atharim hunted him, they weren't going to find him easily - unless they frequented places like Kallisti. And while they might, they weren't likely to come in guns a blazing. More like what they did at Methos' concert. They were probably after Jaxen and his crew too though Jaxen was already on their list. A failed mission even. Nox was happy about that. Nox laughed at the moves in a club comment. "It's probably not like classical ballet or ballroom dancing either. More improv than anything. Give me a few days I'm sure I can come up with something to show you. My mother believed the best thing to do if I was going to be sent into danger's hands was to keep me away from those hands with grace and agility." Nox glanced to Raffe and the sweater wrapped up around his neck - self conscious when he hadn't been before. He turned his attention back to Carmen with a smile. "Though I'm beginning to think she was trying to help me remember who I was."

Nox stood up and finished off the cup of coffee. "Show me where this goes, and I'll get out of your way until you need me for something. I have to teach a pup boundaries before you have guests all over." Nox smiled, "Thank you, Carmen, for both the roof over my head and a shot at making a few pennies. It means the world to me right now."
