Lorenzo looks between the two before piping up.
"Eh...From what I heard it ain't uncommon mostly because Ropers don't have the same gender issues the rest of us might. Or Mr. Roper just can't be bothered to care about things like that."

Frances would hum a bit and nodded. "Makes sense." He said and said "Though I admit this is new to me as well, ah well, still it is a pleasure to meet both of you, Inoue and Lorenzo." He said. He then turned back to Inoue and said "By the way, if it's alright with you, I do believe Lorenzo can come in and make himself at home." He said, not wanting to step on anyone toes.

"Oh! Yes, of course, I'm sorry." At this point, a lizard-man in the doorway doesn't even faze Shiori. "Inoue is my clan name, by the way, you can call me Shiori. I know most places put the clan name second, but I am from Kara-Tur." Small talk small talk small talk. Don't panic. It is unbecoming of a ninja. "What about you? Where are you from?"

"Oh, no need to worry about that. Mostly wanted to go around to the rooms and see who all might be up to checking things out once they get the basics settled with living conditions, stuff stowed and beds figured out sorta deal. Y'know, investigating the city and all that. Maybe do a show or pub or something to get to know everyone, treat if I can afford it since jobs are likely gonna be plentiful enough around here it won't be hard to make the cash back."

"Ah, my apologize Shiori, and to where I'm from. A small farm town on the Sword Coast, moved into a city for a bit, and started traveling around. Sharing my music with whoever wants to listen, and hopefully find a place I can at least settle for a bit." He said, picking a couple of notes from his harp. He would listen to what the large gator like Lorenzo as he nodded. "That sounds like a good plan to me." He said. "Ah, but I was just relaxing a bit, it's been close to few weeks sense I rested in a bed."

Lorenzo's eye crest rises at that, though he pulls out an old map from a pocket before unfolding it.
"Ain't heard of Kara Tur or Sword Coast, so likely not from the same plane. But basically my world's known as Eberron here. I come from Xen'Drik. Jungle continent, throne of the Giant Empire of old y'see."
He hands the unfolded map to Shiori and Frances, pointing to a continent near the bottom of it.

"What a peculiarly-shaped plane," Shiori remarks, sounding a little distracted. Frances seems polite enough. Very properly dressed; her father had warned her that outside hidden ninja villages, men don't always wear clothing that obscures everything but the eyes, but not even her grandmother could object to Frances' garb. Privacy is still an issue, but... she's a ninja, isn't she? Getting up, showering, toweling off and getting dressed without being spotted by her roommate is basically just a bit of extra homework. Yeah, okay, she can deal with this.
"I would enjoy going out to see the city, if you are offering."
Offline
Frances would look over the map and nodded. "Interesting." He said. When Shiori said she would like to see the city, Frances had to give it a thought. He's no stranger to cities by any means, but he did feel like one sometimes. But, so far everything's been good.
"You know what, if it is an offer, I would like to take you up on that as well." He said, picking up his few items and stowing them away again. Frances knew how to pack real light as well.

Lorenzo looks at it and then to Shiori curiously, before he gets it.
"Ah, no, no, it's a sphere. Less crazy than the map of Sigil I saw-did you know we're in a giant donut? Just damn hard to show that on a flat surface, yeah? Also got twelve moons and a ring of precious stones in orbit. But yeah, it's an offer. When you two feel ready, c'mon out. Gonna go try some more of the doors currently."
With that he gives a cheery wave and steps down the hall, knocking at 511 since he knew a bunch of the others were out still.
Offline
The door to 511 opens and a slender halfling opens up. She stares at the lizard man and says something in a sharp, monosyllabic language.
