[Tauriel Turned back to look for Lindir, but the Klingons were starting to crowd her again. CLEARLY, they thought she was Romulan or at the very least worth bothering.

Naturally she was inclined to move away from them vowing to apologize fully to Lindir when they were not both attracting attention. She heard Niko's voice, on the other side of the stage. To Tauriel, it's just an obstacle so she hops up onto it, much to the sudden cheer (and a few jeers) of the patrons.

The unoccupied pole certainly has her attention. Tipsy as it is, she suddenly wonders if she can do the same things the dancer had been doing annnnnd thus decides to give it a try. It after all had looked fun, and it certainly was a challenge....]

[lindir]

[Lindir was getting his ears stroked by the green lady when he saw Tauriel climb onto stage. When he sees what she was doing his eyes go wise... it somehow looked... not appropriate.

Finally panicked enough to move fast enough away from his new 'friends' Lindir makes his way to the bottom of the stage near the other Elf's feet. He reaches out to get her attention.]

Tauriel! I do not think you should--

[Of course, just then a bouncer is tapping him on the shoulder and telling him not to touch the dancers or he'll be kicked out. This guy practically towers over Lindir, and that's saying something, since Lindir is actually quite tall.]

[vengeance_driven]

[Oh jesus. Oh no. Niko holds his hands up, but the bouncer also stops him from physically getting up there. Even though she's technically not a dancer, the brothel mistress is amused enough with it (and she's getting favorable enough reactions) that she's letting it happen.]

[Niko has to be careful not to get pushed away from the stage altogether, so he just holds up his hands from where he is.]

Come on, Tauriel. I am done here. I left the money. We can go!

[tawarwaith]

[Tauriel sees Niko and and waves to him, human fashion, Which ends up getting her to spin around on the pole. That causes a lots more cheers but more people are also beginning to yell for her to "Strip or "take it off", whatever that means.

If one hand had been fun, what was it like with no hands? She was just contemplating the mechanics of that and about to try it when Niko spoke to her.]

Why do we have to go? This is fun?

[lindir]

[Mentally Lindir was sobering up now, if for no other reason than necessity. Though Tauriel was clothed, many of the other ladies were in various states of not. It gave him a bad feeling about what could happen in this place. (And let's face it, Rivendell Elves are kind of prudes.)

Trying very hard not to shake like a leaf with the bouncer looming behind him, he calls out to her.]

Tauriel! Please come now!

[Someone nearby laughs at Lindir and makes a comment about buying her dinner first, which he didn't understand...]

[vengeance_driven]

Hey! [Niko snaps at the bouncer for looming over Lindir.] He's with me! [He is going to take a risk, a big risk to do in front of a patrol officer, Thankfully being what he is comes with a few perks. Not a lot. But a few. And the patrol officer is drunk. And Lindir looks scared.]

[The bouncer looks like he's about to have a few more serious words for Niko. But at least the heat is off Lindir for now. He steals a quick glance up at Tauriel.]

I don't think this is the type of place you want to spend too much time in drunk. [He has to keep his eyes between her and the big thug of a- whatever he is -who almost drowns him out with a "Are you listening to me?"]
I'm sorry, I was distracted. [This isn't a real apology. Niko's an ass, and Niko's being a distraction, himself.] It's real hard to listen to you when you're the ugliest thing in the room.

[tawarwaith]

[Tauriel notices then that Lindir was getting loomed over, and realized that maybe she should stop doing what it was she was doing and help the bunny-elf out. Before she could hop down, Niko intervened, earning both a smile and her internal thanks that he was helping Lindir.

With a laugh, she finally comes down, wobbling only a little since she is both drunk and now dizzy from one to many spins about the pole.]

That was fun! I wish to do this again sometime!

[lindir]

[This Elf was more than done for the evening, so he hurries to join Niko and Tauriel, as if they would protect him from the bouncer and the scantily clad women.]

I-I wish to return now, if I may.

[He wasn't completely sober, but he was starting get a clear enough head to be more himself again, and that meant being a bit anxious about the circumstances.]

[vengeance_driven]

[Niko points between his eyes and the bouncer's when the guy is looming in on him. Nope. Not scared. But then Lindir is talking.]

Excuse me, I have to see my elf friends to the door.

Not Romulan.

[He puts his arm around Tauriel's shoulders and one against Lindir's back and he's ready to head for the door. Though there's a bunch of guys making disappointed noises. Except for two. Who might be catcalling something about threesomes that Niko is pointedly ignoring.]

I promised I would be right out. I wasn't going to take long.

[tawarwaith]

[Lindir's discomfort makes her feel guilty for insisting they come here in order to sate her own curiosity. She looked around realizing perhaps for the first time what exactly this place was not an ideal spot.]

I am sorry to the both of you. I had not been here before and so was curious.

[lindir]

[Trying not to think so much on what that threesome comment might mean, Lindir walks stiffly along with the other two, glad the Niko seemed to have things under control. Not for the first time that night, does he wonder perhaps this was a bad idea. With luck, though, they'd be headed back to the resort so he could sober up in peace. He says nothing, somewhat afraid that if he said or did the wrong thing, he might very well be in trouble with the bouncer.]

[vengeance_driven]

It's okay. You did a very good job at it. I think you surprised them pretty good.

[He takes a relaxed breath when they get outside.]

You alright there, big man? [He asks Lindir.]

[tawarwaith]

Are you alright, friend? [Tauriel reached over to Lindir and pats him on the shoulder, offering him a moment of comfort.

To Niko She just smiled warmly, excited that he thought she had done well.]

Maybe I will go back an learn more, it was a fun challenge.

..aaaandd Lindir is done for the day XD

[lindir]

[At Niko's remark, Lindir looks offended.]

I am not a Man, I am Elf-kind.

[Really, he thought they'd been over this, and he was far too jittery right now to think about his tone. He jumps slightly when Tauriel touches his shoulder. He didn't particularly want to be touched by anyone at the moment. He sighs.]

I am well enough, but I wish to return now.

[vengeance_driven]

[He's about to tell Tauriel that might not be such a good idea. But then Lindir's snappish tone makes him raise his hands defensively.] Hey, I wasn't calling you a human. It is a word for male in English. I'm sorry! [But then he's speaking in words that aren't familiar to Niko and he just frowns and looks to Tauriel. He has no idea what that was.]

[tawarwaith]

[She drops her hand down and shrugs to Lindir as she struggles to switch to a language they can all understand.]

I think the resort is the best choice, Lindir I think needs to lie down, and I am hungry. If you could take us back I would appreciate it.

[She doubted Lindir would want to travel in the vehicle again, but walking back to the resort was not an option.]

[lindir]

[Wait. Were they going back into that...thing again? Lindir walks along with them but it a bit hesitant in his steps, from the doorway he can see the vehicle.]

I would - If I might suggest...

[He looks between the two of them.]

...Must we really?

[vengeance_driven]

[Niko just sighs and that overly heavy brow of his rises a bit. He can't understand elf, but he can understand tone and balking looks. He sometimes screws things up when he's trying to help.... Okay, he often screws things up when he's trying to help.]

How about I pay for you a cab, ah? I will show you food another time. [He pulls out his comm to call them one. They already had a pretty big adventure.]

[tawarwaith]

[It wasn't that she would have minded going in the car with Niko. Once you got over the terror of it, it had actually been pretty fun. However, Lindir did not look at all well and she was worried for him.]

Possibly for the best, yes. Another time we can share a meal together.

[To Lindir She offers him a friendly smile and asks just to be sure:]

Are you sure you do not wish a repast?

[lindir]

I wish only to return and rest. If I hunger I can find food there.

[Still, he had to remember his manners. He turns to Niko.]

...My thanks for the company this evening.
