OOCHope its okay!
It was nearing mid-day and Jasper was going to be late. Following her previous sparring session with Tourmal the two had agreed on a day and time to meet again. Jasper had spent a solid three days debating whether or not she would go or not, she had found herself incredibly embarrassed as she remembered her actions from their last meeting. If anything her brothers were what nearly convinced her that it was safer not to go, they had spent most of their time badgering her about who she was meeting up with and what she was doing. Apparently they weren't satisfied with the truth, she was meeting with a friend (well, she supposed that's a fairly apt description for a man she only barely knew) and she was sparring. To them though her reasons had to be false, in their opinion no body would bother sparring with her other than themselves. And according to them their little sister must be using her time to sneak around with a mysterious stranger, which wasn't actually that far from the truth. A small part of her worried that they would follow her and find out for themselves. She dismissed the thought though, her brothers were far too useless and idiotic to follow her without tripping up and Jasper noticing it.
Jaspers hair had been tied up in an intricate swirl at the back of her head, thanks to her mothers efforts in making her 'presentable'. She had spent most of the morning attempting to hide around her pavilion without looking too conspicuous as her mother had a habit of choosing men who were too old and too stern. Apparently, in the opinion of the one she'd had to displeasure of meeting today, crouching behind a barrel confiding to a dog about the misogynistic values of out-dated beliefs and culture was just plainly unsatisfactory and unladylike behaviour, which really just proved her point as far a she was concerned. Jasper and the dog disagreed with him. Her mother of course had been mortified and had ordered Jasper out of her sight, which Jasper promptly used as an excuse to grab her Tulwar and take off as fast as her legs could carry her.
Jasper slowed from her jog to a walk as she reached where her and Tourmal were to meet, craning her head and glancing around people as she tried to spot the tall, tanned man.
