"I've seen the castle but never been inside it. it must be quite the grand place. You're awful lucky to be working there." He gave her a sincere smile.

Electra shrugged" it is nice inside " she said gently. But growing up she didn't see a lot of it mostly the ward area of the castle." I grew in the life of a guard so I was use to it" she said saying she grew up under a guard which she did in a way, but a part of her didn't like saying she was a ward because everyone knew what that meant. She didn't like thinking about it.

"You seem rather comfortable talking with random strangers enough," he pointed out, slightly teasing, slightly curious. "I wondered at that. Though I suppose you have enough training to take care of yourself, eh?" He took a long sip of his soda, studying her closely.

Electra looked at him and studied him as well wondering how much info she could share with him" I've only disclosed the basic detail of my work and where I'm from "she said gently. Basic as in where she's from as of since she was a young child. and that she worked as a guard at the castle to basic info nothing that would give anyone an upper hand in a fight against her. nothing too personal which is how she liked it.

“I didn’t ask for dissertations on your life or anything,” he said defending himself, “I just mentioned you’re probably well trained. All the guards of, well, any city with royals and leaders and the like typically are. Even mercenary bands have excellent training by their captains and such. I’m not one to press information not freely given.” He pointed his finger at her to emphasize… something. Then he went back to looking around the bar area for their waitress, obviously hungry. “But how about you tell me something that isn’t top secret then,” he said, turning to her. “For conversation’s sake.”

Electra let out a calming sigh before nodding" yeah I can handle myself in a fight. I may be on the small side for a guard I can still kick butt and take names." she confirmed. She glanced over to see their server getting stuff on the tray. She glanced back at him" Sorry about kinda going defensive on yea "She said before pausing for a moment" you fight some times?" she asked calmly. sparing and stuff that's a good convocation to talk about, at least in her mind it was.

"Oh yah," he replied, waving his hand in a nonchalant manner. "Petty troublemakers. Vercingetorix a few times. But that was mostly when I went traveling to Elector. They were having problems then." He paused. "Of course, I do some sparring every now and again which I suppose is the bare minimum to keep me conditioned. But you could probably take me in a fight. Not ashamed to admit that."

Electra chuckled and grinned" oh yeah? would you like to spar sometime maybe?" she asked smoothly. her calm and relax self coming out again. The server walked over with their food.

"Perhaps," he said. "Time permitting of course. That's the big thing these days. Not enough time." He looked up as the waitress gave them their food, wished them a happy meal, and bounced off. He dug into his roasted pheasant with gusto.

Electra nodded and started to eat" yeah maybe sometime "she said gently" where do you work?" she asked calmly not recalling if she had asked him already or not.

He was also eating. He really liked meat. Odd, since he was a werehorse and all. When he was a werehorse he ate grass and grains and things, sure, but he didn't care for them that much. He looked up at her question, swallowing his mouthful. "Oh me? I do lots of different things. Sometimes courier, sometimes mercenary, sometimes bodyguard. Depends on what people need."

She nodded" that's cool "She said as she ate. She took a drink of her drink and looked over at him. She wondered more about him. like what kind of life he grew up in.

He watched the musicians for a minute as he ate, enjoying their song, though he couldn't make out the lyrics. He took another bite of food, then looked at her. "What?" he asked.

She blinked" huh?" she said gently. She glanced down at her food and started to eat. she properly shouldn't ask because he might ask the same question in return. She didn't like sharing personal info especially if that info says she was an orphan.

"You looked like you wanted to ask me something," he said, though he judged by her actions that she would rather drop it all entirely. He looked back at his own food, wondering why she was acting so shy and reserved. She was a guard. Didn't she have wild stories to tell and lots of bravado and stuff? Or maybe that was all in movies and books and real guards were cold introverts. Engel only knew a few guards personally, so he didn't have a big enough base to judge the total population's personality.
