Faro walked into the room to gather up whatever things he had to call his possessions. He also made a note to go and get more ammo for the weapons he was using. As he was gathering up his stuff, Seras walked in. She was intending to have a little rest after the fight, but when she saw Faro packing up, she walked to see what he was doing. "What are you doing?" she asked as she peered over his shoulder. He flinched and then stood up with a sigh.
"Hey Seras. Uh...so, you know Joanna? Well, she and Samus were thinking about about leaving to go bounty hunting, and...Well I decided to go with them." Faro said, seeming sheepish about it.
Seras took a second to take this in, then seemed sad about this news. "Oh, I see." she said while hanging her head.
"I want to help them, you know, get accustomed to this world. Could be dangerous, especially if they're going to be hunting criminals." Faro said in defense of his idea.
Seras then straightened back up and smiled at Faro. "I understand. Well, let's go say goodbye I guess." she said, then she and Faro went to find Samus and Joanna.

Joanna smiled.
"Alright. Let's go! Oh. I'll just grab my things." She set off for her room at a brisk pace, and when she got there she quickly scooped the upended contents of her bag back in. Once they were outside she grabbed her swords from where they had been left by the bonfire and sheathed them, before continuing with Samus and the Mason sisters. She waved to Seras and Faro as they approached, a little sheepishly. Faro had seen what she now looked like, but Seras had not.

"You don't need to knock." came the woman's voice from within the bounty store.

"So, I've heard you girls are going to be leaving?" Seras asked Joanna and Samus.
Faro moved to stand by Samus and Joanna, having a backpack of stuff on his back.

Joanna nodded.
"Yes, we are going to track down a bounty. Just for a time, I think. I wanted to get out of the public eye for a time, and Samus and Faro have agreed to go too."

Seras nodded with a small sigh. "Well good luck to you three then." Seras said as she went to hug Samus. She remembered Samus was uncomfortable with contact, so she made the hug quick and light. As she didn't know Joanna that well, she simply tried to shake hands with her.
Samus still stiffened a bit as Seras hugged her, but she gave Seras a warm and thankful smile, or as warm and thankful as Samus could get anyway.
Joanna momentarily drew her hand close to her chest, reluctant to let anyone touch her wasted skin. As Seras could see her condition and still offered contact though, she decided she should be polite and hesitantly held out her hand.
Seras gave Joanna's hand a firm shake. If Joanna could still feel, she would notice Seras' oddly low skin temperature. After her handshake with Joanna, she hugged Faro tightly. He patted her on the back awkwardly, but then returned it in full after a second. With that done Seras stepped back and looked at the three again. "Take care of each other, and don't spend too long away, okay?" she said with a smile, her eyes slightly misty.
"I just hate to see friends go. Even if it is temporary." Seras said as she tried to clear her eyes.
<color=purple>"Really? Huh. Somehow I thought the people that issued the bounty would be a lot less mundane than that. One of our companions commented that the information on the bounty sheet seemed a little vague and too general. What kind of universe is she from?"
OOC: Gonna take a shower in a minute.

"Well, a bounty is generally placed on someone who's supposed to go on trial. And trials are run by governments, so they're the ones who place them." the woman explained, as she took out a small file from under the counter. "This bounty is from a magically-active parallel universe. Basically, she's from an iteration of this planet, with native magic, whereas this one only has non-native magic. She's from the same universe as the cait sith your friends captured a while back, in fact."
