Cafea chimed lightly at the strange, rodent-like creature. He had forgotten how much other beings hated being told the truth. It was too bad he possessed no capability for dishonesty.
((As in: No, he isn't going to stop being annoying 
))
The Frog shook his head. "I wouldn't worry. Just some interceptors from their main fleet. We don't get along too well."
Frosch nodded, "Right, still a little disconcerning." He said, "But I'm sure I'll live through the nightmares." He said with a laugh. "So my amphibious friend, would you like something to drink?"
"Believe it or not, I'd like some of the stereotype you'd expect."
"Swampwater, if you will."
"No shame in that my friend." He said as he actually pulled a bottle of it out. "The stuff is packed full of good nuterients." He said as he poured a glass.
Leeni hopped over to Cafea, lowering her goggles and peering at the other alien, ears twitching.
"Ya know, you shouldn't assume that just 'cause I'm packin' means I'm lookin' for trouble, unless you're lookin' for trouble in which case I ain't gonna back down. No. No. Hell no. The Twitch don't play that, man. The Twitch likes t'play nice but she won't back down. That's how I roll."
Reaching into her bag, she pulled out a little flyer and handed it to Cafea.
"This' my boss, Ushlax. He's the hottest R&B sound this side of the star system, man. An' I'm his right hand - Ushie ain't goin' nowhere without the Twitch! ...Err..."
Leeni glanced to the side a little guiltily, twiddling her fingers.
"...That is, he usually doesn't."

The alien suddenly snatches one of the plasma weapons from the short one's stash. She began picking at it with her webbed claws, then suddenly ripped it open, exposing the plasma core.
She tore it out and, with one swift move, clapped her 'hand' to where her mouth should have been, splattering the plasma over her masklike face.
Slowly, creepily, the plasma seemed to be absorbed into her skin. Then it was gone.

Kreigg pushed the vegetables around on his plate for a few seconds before picking up one of the blue beads between his fingers. He lifted it up to the light and inspected it and he ripped off a hunk of the meat and shoved it into his mouth.
"Wha's this" he asked mid-chew, "Caviar or sumtin?" He glanced around at the assembled patrons, taking notice of some newcomers. His gaze settled for a long moment on Leeni. There was something familiar about her...
Short...
Rodent...
Sarcastic and jerky...
..........nah, couldn't be.
He returned his attention to the food, deciding to give the vegetables a try.
The Frog took a single gulp, and then sat the bottle on the table.
Those who were observant would actually see the thin green film on the top of the slowly shrinking amount of water.
<Thaannnksss...> The alien said, its telepathic voice dripping.
It slowly walked around the room, and it settled its gaze upon the Frog, fixing him with an unnerving emerald stare.

Leeni let out a piercing screech.
"WHAT THE HELL you gotta freakin' pull apart my heat for!? If you wanted the power core you coulda asked or something because I've got extras in these belts ya know! Gawd like it's not hard enough finding a decent mechanic on this podunk planet without having someone pullin' [censored] apart like a Denubrian slime lobster."
Leeni's deft hands gathered up the pieces of her plasma pistol and began reassembling busily. Pulling another power supply out of one of her bandoliers, she slapped it into the newly reassembled firearm and notching it back on her belt.

The alien turned back to Leenie, fixing her with the same unsettling stare. Yet, she seemed to be apologizing somehow.
She turned away and slowly walked around the room, her webbed talons leaving wet spots wherever she stepped.

Frosch looked at the meal, "Actually, I think those are a type of bean, I really don't know. But I'm pretty sure they aren't fish eggs." He said with a shrug and then noticed the no mouth creature was gone and hadn't touched the plasma he had put out for her. "Well, that's just mean..." He said.
Teide had her own dealing with the alien that had attacked her guest's personal property. "Ma'am." She said harshly, "I have no authority over what you do, but in my Inn if you cause anymore problems I'll have Briareus thorw you out, literal." She said, "That's your one warning. Now Twitch was it? You wanted a room?"
"Eh?"
Leeni spun around at being addressed, and leaped up onto the reception desk.
"The proper name's Leeni, but everyone calls me Twitch anyway so whatever works for you. Yeah, if it ain't too much to ask, how much are the rooms goin' for? I gotta li'l cash from the last gig."
When the owner seemed to reprimand the other female alien, Leeni waved her small paw dismissively. "Ain't no thing, ain't no thing, the Twitch knows some people roll against the flow, man, the Twitch ain't gotta problem. Plasmagal is coo' with me, totally coo'."

What an odd little creature. "I have no real set price. I give on the basis of what's in demand at the time. So what kind of payment can you give and I'll tell you what'll take." Teide explained.
Cafea laughed. "You miss my point, little creature. My point is that those weapons are designed for violence, and violence only leads to more of the same. If you enjoy working to destroy your race and the universe in general, though, I am sure that is your prerogative."
"Hold on just a smeggin second," Kreigg blurted into Cafeas' conversation, "Yer obviously missin the point of violence. It only leads to more violence if ya do it wrong."
The alien saw the plasma on the counter and made a beeline for it, consuming it in the same way she had the first bit of plasma.
She looked up apologetically, not being very observant...

"Interesting," Cafea responded. "And exactly how, may I ask, would you do it right? By killing succesfully, and thus adding another wasted life to the mounting death toll?"
"Because!" The Frogman butted in, "That's one less baddie tryin' to pump you full of lead!"
"Exactly," Kreigg agreed emphatically with Rulaag, "And, if you do it in a...." he chuckled from somewhere deep in his gut, obviously amused by his next thought, "...creative enough way, that's a hundred less people that'll be willin to mess with ya."
"Yes, and for every one 'baddie' who dies, two of its relatives take its place," returned Cafea. "And they shall return the favor, and the feud shall grow ever greater and fiercer as the entire world begins to form two sides. One that says 'You hit me first,' and the other saying 'You deserved it'."
"Daaamn straight!" Leeni said, turning back towards the conversation. "Besides, I gotta stand up for the Ush. 'S what I'm here for ya know. All the peeps are all like kablamblam! And I'm like, 'Oh hell no you di'int! Twitch gonna mess you up now!' Blamblamblam! An' then it's all--"
She paused, emptying her pockets of various and sundry coins from multiple galaxies.
"I'anno how much this is, but you can have it. The Twitch is loaded, baby!" she said to the innkeeper, seemingly forgetting she had been in the middle of another conversation.

Rulaag shrugged. "Whatever keeps the world a turnin'. Besides, we wouldn't be symbiotes without warfare."
At the stares he got, he grinned. "My million little buddies here."
"Hey man!" Leeni whirled around, pointing to Cafea. "I ain't out to like bust up the universe or nothin', me and my boys are just --"
Just then, she noticed the hungry-looking alien hovering over her.
"Uh...Somethin' I can do for ya?" Leeni mumbled unsurely, taking a brief hop backwards.
