Shrinking down to her normal size would turn out to be a better idea than AJ had originally thought, for with her slender body and shapely wings, to the common passerby she would appear to be a butterfly, flitting along on whatever course she choose, but before she could even garner a responce from her intergalatic roommate, everyone's attention was pulled to what sounded like someone falling shoulder first into the door. There were the sounds of earnest apologies half heard over the din of what was going on in the hall, filtering through the wood of the door itself. Xlorvok, Chandi, and Kei looked at one another, trying to decide whether to investigate, or merely let the disturbance pass. Chandi shrugged as if to dismiss it to which Kei nodded in agreement, when there came a knock.
"Oh, with AJ perched here, wings a-flapping, suddenly there comes a tapping, as of someone gently rapping, rapping at our chamber door. 'Tis some visitor," Xlorvok muttered, "tapping at our chamber door. Only this, and nothing more."
Chandi and Kei exchanged confused glances as AJ giggled to herself at the pirate's particular brand of humor at that moment, his swagger seamlessly blending into a casual stride as the rest of his features slid into the more human form of John Starling who couldn't help but feel like the luckiest man in the galaxy at the moment. On the other side of the door he was greeted by a fellow in his early thirties with short, sandy blonde hair and a type of natural build to him that caught all three ladies eye's for a brief moment. A build that was being hidden behind nothing more than a cook's apron, which left the sides of his legs clearly visible, as well as quite of few of his other assets, if one was standing behind him.
"Sir. Ladies..." he said in a proper Australian way of speaking, his accent unbutchered by foriegn influences like De's had been. "...My name's Daniel and I'm here on behalf of the hotel to offer our deepest apologies to any inconvience this little... mishap may.... have caused."
He said in a slighly more than jealous way, peering over John's shoulder to see both Kei and Chandi clad in what was obviously no their formal wear.
"But on behalf of the hotel, please feel free to treat youselves to breakfast in any of the dinning rooms on the third floor, at no cost of course...." He added with a wink towards Kei. "...and please accept our apologies for this event, and our gratitude for your patience. Thank you."
And with that he excused himself, turning and walking down the hall to the next door where he'd deliver the same message to the guest within. John shut the door behind him, cutting off AJ's view of a proper postieror, before shifting back to his true self and looking over his companions.
"What do you say ladies? Up for a bit a breakfast before we head off?
