Jokor frowned, seriously she didn't know what she meant?
"Well I can escort you to the market for a coin or two, Its hard to live without money you know."Jokor explained and held out his hand.
"But I think I'l come with you for that audition thing right now, whatever that is."

"I would love to!" said Rosetta happily. she turned and went down the make shift ladder so that she could walk with the two other people. "By the way my name is Rosetta, Rosetta Little." she said as she looked up at them.

"Oh," Cheska blushed, reaching her purse. It had only a few coins jingling about. Most of it was going to be spent on the circus' meals, and the rest had been left in her tent. Still, she did need to go to the market, and Cheska supposed it only seemed fair. After all, he wasn't working for the circus yet. She gingerly placed a coin into the boy's hand, giving him a tentative smile. After all, dinner depended on him! "Sorry, I can be so stupid at times," she smacked her forehead to prove the point. "Well, this is just perfect! We can all go to the market, and you guys can audition just in time for dinner! You'll have to let me know what kind of food you like-" she blushed again, realizing that both humans had not given their names. "My name's Cheska, by the way."

"Wonderful!" Cheska turned to Rosetta. "It's very nice to meet you, Rosetta! Are you sure you want to walk, you can sit on my shoulder or in the basket, if you like. I'm worried someone might step on you," she said in a worried tone, looking about for crowds with the potential of treading upon small pycons.

Jokor quickly stashed gold away on his body as soon as the girl dropped the coin in it.
"I'l eat anything you give me so don't worry." Jokor said. "and you can call me Jokor its easy to remember. So let get our asses in gear and go to the market."
Jokor motioned Cheska and Rosetta to follow him before turning around and walking down the street quickly trying to remember the shortest route to the market.

"Thank you. I have to admit I'm kind of afraid of someone steping on me too." Rosetta said as she climbed onto Cheska's shoulder. From there she could she better and wouldn't take up any space in the basket. "I don't really eat food." she said, "I eat clay once or twice ever few weeks and I have some in my bag." Rosetta said as she lightly tapped the bag that was one her back.

Cheska smiled at Rosetta, it was certainly a most odd experiance to have another person sitting on your shoulder. Odd, but it was silly enough to bring a smile to her face.

"Oh, I didn't know you ate clay. What does it taste like?" she asked the pycon, finding the eating habits of the small race quite interesting. "Should we get more clay? Do you have enough?"

"Nice to meet you Jokor," Cheska nodded to the boy, following him with the smoothest gait she could muster, since she didn't want Rosetta to fall off.

"Yeah sure." Jokor said, not really paying attention to Cheska. Jokor walked inside an alley the buildings not letting much light reach it. "Just don't lose sight of me, I don't wan't to go and look for you guy's." Jokor said as he began walking through the trashlitered alley.

When they entered the alley, Rosetta grew stiff. There was something about ally ways that frightened her. She looked around, noticing the garbage that littred the area and the filth that seemed to cling to the walls. "I'll be fine for the next week or so." she said, replying to Cheska's question, "It dosen't really taste like anything I find. maybe it's because im also made of clay."

Rosetta had become alittle less afraid as she talked to her company and was relived to see a street coming into view at the end of the alley.

"Oh, okay," said Cheska, smiling as she gathered that bit of knowledge. It would be easy to keep her new pycon friend fed, if all she required was clay. "I guess we'll need to get quite a sizable amount of if before we head to the next city," she told Rosetta, stepping delicately around the filth covered alleyway.

"Okay," she told Jokor, following him closely. The last thing she wanted was to get lost in this accursed city again. She'd never know why Verduth chose this place to gather performers.

Jokor stepped out of the alley not having bothered to step around the piles of filth or dirty puddles.
"Only a street away from the market right now, keep your hand on your purses and don't get close to anybody, there are way more pickpockets around here then just me." He said walking down the streets. Slowing a bit down so that he was walking besides the group.
"So what do you actually need?"
