Acqua closes her eyes, taking a moment to navigate the streets by memory just for the fun of it, then smiles proudly when she doesn't take a step wrong. 'Even remembered that hole in the fifth road,' she thinks, chuckling. 'Forces it's good to be home.'
As fun as roaming the night streets are, Acqua's cold and she's looking for a different sort of fun tonight. Giving a wistful thought to how much better this would be with Echo and Mat for company, Acqua heads towards the Guard's HQ.
She's not at all surprised to find that no one is on watch. In this weather she can hardly blame them. The fact the door isn't even locked through, that makes Acqua cover her face with one hand and shake her head in amused disgust.
'Could this BE any easier?' she wonders as she helps herself to a sandwich in the kitchen, then heads to the sleeping quarters.
Over the next hour a curious sight can be seen. Namely the growing stack of shirts, pants, loin cloths, belts and boots outside the door. With every possible stitch of clothing removed from the HQ, Acqua does a last check, only for her luck to run out. A guard rolls straight off his bunk, hitting the floor with a thud.
Swearing mentally, Acqua flings herself under a nearby bed, holds her breath and tries to ignore the unfortunately good view she has of the naked guard's family jewels. When minutes pass and the guard doesn't move, Acqua realises he must have knocked himself out in the fall.
Chuckling silently, Acqua hurries outside, grabs up her stolen goods and begins the next stage of her 'return to Ilyamen' announcement.
The shirts and pants are scattered around Aslan's garden (one has to amuse the Leaders occassionally), the loin cloths are scattered around the town square and the boots go straight into the city drinking fountains.
Laughing at her own cleverness and skill, Acqua heads back to the Merc guild for at least a couple of hours sleep before dawn.
