Is there a problem? « Thread Started on Feb 5, 2008, 9:47am »
Apparently no-one ever came into Bit House no more, something to do with something or another, yet here she was, Lacey, striding down the middle of the street one hand on her holster, fingering her revolver and her other hand running through her hair. She didn't need to look up as she was walking, in fact she didn't really need to look where she was walking at all. Lacey had a sense of direction, but rarely took it anyway. While she was walking her hand never left her side. One could never be too careful in streets in unknown territories, especially ones that you haven't ventured into before.
Finally reaching the Bit house Lacey put her head down, reached up to her head and pulled her hat down a little more so that her face was hidden as she pushed open the saloon doors and entered. It smelt slightly musty and old, but that didn't bother her, she was here for one thing and one thing only. She walked to the bar and sat down at one of the stools, immediately the bartender slid upto her. "Whiskey." She whispered and he poured her one instantly. Lacey didn't thank him, she just sat there and took the drink in her hand not taking a sip just yet. She was waiting.

Low profile was very hard to keep when you're a Turner, Tristan no less. He came into town, leaving Savvi hitched on a post closer to the outskirts. That horse was a dead give away, and, though he usually doesn't care, he just wanted a drink tonight. The only reason the bartender didn't mind him was the fact he payed double. It wasn't like he couldn't get a free one back in his town, but alcohol seemed to taste better when you dared a town who hated you. Tristan took a step into the saloon in his own cocky way. One didn't need to see his face, his walk was enough. That man was too distinct.
He'd been in here enough times, the man behind the bar looked at him and already poured a drink, setting it on the bar before Tristan found himself sitting. He smirked at the bartender and nodded his head before glancing around. The only other person in there was a blond who's face was mostly hidden. He kept his eyes on her for a moment before looking at his drink before taking a small bit. Usually there was at least one guy he could tussle with. Who knows, that lady didn't look too dainty.

Taking a sip of the whiskey Lacey allowed the burning liquid to run down her dry throat. For another person that probably would have hurt and made the dry throat even worse, but for Lacey it didn't, she was used to it afterall she was a tough woman with a dark past. No-one knew about her past, and to be quite honest she wasn't too sure on it either. It was just one of those things that happened, if you catch the drift here. For now she was content in just sitting there with her whiskey, no other patrons were in the Bit House so she didn't have to worry about getting herself into trouble. Not that she was looking for trouble or anything, but life had been so quiet lately that Lacey would welcome any kind of trouble. In any form.
For a while she just sat there with her head low and her hat covering most of her face. She took another sip of her whiskey and didn't even bother looking up when another patron entered, although she could feel his eyes on her for a few moments. That was annoying... slightly, Lacey hated it when people looked at her, she wasn't something that you could goggle at in a cell, no, she was a living breathing woman, one that hated it when people stared at her for longer than was necessary, so she hardened her grip on the glass and stopped moving until he looked away. Once he had looked away she was fine and went back to drinking her whiskey quietly and in peace.

Tristan noticed how she gripped her galss when he looked at her, an eyebrow raising. She stopped moving it seemed until he when looked away. Clearing his throat, the trade marked Tristan-smirked crossed his lips as he took another drink, looking at the bartender then at the woman a second time. Silence covered the air for moments longer before he finally should break it.
"Quiet night we have here, ah?" He spoke to no-one in general. The bartender just glanced at him, obviously he wasn't talking to the outlaw.
