This is the first time my day gets a bit more lively than usual since I joined the Watch. How come? Well, I went for one of those usual evening patrols I am supposed to do, expecting nothing but empty streets and chilly air. And it was that way, actually. So, after having several walk-arounds I decided to peak into the tavern and rest there for a bit, giving myself a little break. As soon as I entered - I headed straight to the beam which now, according to how many times I stood there, should be rightfully mine without me re-claiming it every evening! So I stood there, trying to rest. And that's when things started getting weird. A chap, whose head was reflecting probably all the light directed at it started staring at me. Well, I decided to stare back, I mean, why not? We had a short contest before he approached me, remarking me wearing my uniform in a public place like ''Pony'' when I am not recommended to. I immediately figured out that he was a Watcher as well, which I have not met yet. I felt a bit shameful, because I am recruit and already lack important knowledge which I was never told about. He stood by the same wall as me before a new guy approached, greeting the other stranger. I guess they...knew each other? There is even more to that - they were both Watchers. The bald guys called himself Fletwood, told me that he is a high rank in the Watch. the First Watcher? And the other fellow looked a bit younger to me, with definitely more hair on his head as I noticed. He introduced himself as Nygell. He called me a fresh meat. I really don't know if I should get offended here or take it as it is, because probably I am. Oh, well, they started talking about business and I started feeling uncomfortable of third-wheeling around. So I excused myself and left for a night-morning patrol.
The following day I come to get changed in the armoury, noticing Nygell again. He was talkative, unlike me. Maybe a tad more confident than me. Well, he claimed barracks because he had to change. When I was about to...So I've waited. I am not a really patient person, but I reclaimed barracks for myself after he finished. I've changed my hauberk to a light tunic, rolling my limbs and walked out. And now I see Captain Nessya, Nygell and some stranger arguing about something. That seemed interesting, so I hid behind the pillar and started watching
Nygell was constantly laughing. Not laughing even, more like bursting, exploading. He couldn't stop and I could feel Nessya's frustration by the way she spoke. Oh boy, I couldn't understanding anything that was happening. It was just hard to comprehend through Nygell's laughter. But it seemed funny. I tried to hide my smirk and giggle. So, at the end everything resolved, the man left and everything seemed calm again. So I decided to sit in jail with both Nygell and Nessya, probably ones of the few friends and aqcuantances I had. It felt good to talk to people, engage in conversations and have a giggles at jokes. I found new friends!
