[ Maxwell is a frequent visitor to the taverns. Not always the same tavern, but always the same seat: wherever he has the clearest view of every person and every exit in the place. He hasn't had much time to make enemies in this place, but old habits die hard when one lives the life he's led.
He grimaces slightly in the doorway when he notices a stranger already seated where we intends to go, but the expression doesn't last, quickly replaced by the genial look he sends the barkeep's way as he waves a casual and familiar greeting. ]
Evenin', Horus. The usual, if you don't mind. I'm good for the coin t'night.
[ He has a gruff smoker's voice, but it's friendly and loud, easily cutting through the din of boisterous conversation in the tavern. And he's dressed in all black, a somber contrast to the jaunty cadence of his speech. ]
You're in my spot, y'know.
[ He stops in front of the table, but only briefly, because then he settles down into a seat with an unsubtle grunt of appreciation for finally getting to rest his bones. Not across from the unusual stranger, but beside him. Like hell he's sacrificing his view. ]
I take it you're new here?
[ He gestures to all of the Medicine Seller's... everything. ]
