"Nay, he doesn't know I'm here... can you believe that wired drekhead had the nerve to threaten Sensei? I just packed it and left... I'll return periodically for training, but I'll need to stay way under radar... He didn't report my location to Lonestar, so he's up to something more sinister. I know you got my back bro... ya always have" *shoots an appreciative smirk*
"Know any good apartments around? something in the 500¥/m range? That'll gimme a chance to get settled and find some work. I like your establishment... ya know, I'd make a good door/bodyguard" *smirking and nudging Quick in the arm*
"Barkeep... can you send Stylez another of whatever he's having? Tell him it's from an old friend." *look at Quick* "He probably doesn't remember me... (slowly and quietly under breath) remember me..."
*gets quiet thinking about seeing J.J. again*

" Well to be honest I don't have a pad myself been stayin with the girls but who knows how long that will last, and ya may wanna ask Dom or the Doc about work here. Have you actually seen Jakob, cause I heard he got himself blown up in a falling out over a lack of payment for his bike," (Gesture toward Styles) "But who knows right?"

While walking ahead to the boot, the card man walked off to the bar, near the elf.
Jack drank a shot of his drink, lost in his thoughts
"Nice ambiance in here...but not enough brawls for my taste, that could live up that place. Well this is downtown, if I wanted action I should have whent for Puyallup."
Looking around, he did manage to spot some guy, around his age, talking to some beefed-up ork with a cyber-hand, some suits who had to much of the good stuff, and the low, low balance on his credstick.
"Drek..payday is 2 weeks away and I'm aready broke, guess I may always rob those suits when they leave..nah, not in downtown, petter play it safe....Well could always ask the bartender if he got a one-night buzz-boy job, or something."
He empted his drink, stand up, lit a smoke and proceeded to the bar.

"I didn't hear that about Jakob... doesn't suprise me though... look that this guy headed up here... he's got a look in his eyes... see that? You can tell he's looking for some action... and I don't mean the dancing girls..."
glances over at the bargirl giving Stylez his drink...
::if he acknowledges me, I'll ask for a private meeting:: ::if he doesn't... I'll continue drinking and catching up while waiting for J.J.::
Either way, I order another drink for me and Quick...
*thinking... wheres the other one the cards were telling me about?*

"Well not that he died, or at least I didn't hear if he did. But should ask Styles Jakob's misfortune wasn't that long ago he would know more I am sure." Takes a swig off his new drink and nods toward Noah " That guy isn't a regular hope he isn't here to start trouble."

"If he does, I'm right here with ya. Got my retractable walking stick in my pocket. Checked my gun in at the door of course."
"Are you sure everythings ok? J.J. seems to be taking a long time back there..."
*looking back at the guy walking towards the bar... the 3rd card I pulled... the hunter. hmmmm...?*

Jack walked to the bar, nervously taking a puff from his lid smoke.
"Hey Barkeep, gimme another one...make it a single and a syntetic whisky please."
"Oui sir... ... ... Here you go sir."
"Thanks..say since the place looks pretty crowded, I was thinking if you guys need any help.. I can do a buzz-boy, trow the troublemakers out and pass the mop after the night...Or anything else you think, or know, of... *grin a small, but very revealing grin.*
"Please wait here sir, I will see if anybody here needs anytihg."
"Oh yeah, it worked! Guess I might be able to buy some beers and some drugs...oh wait and some smokes too, this is easyer to get one here than a regular job, hahah...Wait I'm might gonna have to do the drek job!. Frag me dammit."
After the shock from ,amybe getting a crappy job, jack puffed his smoke and drank a shot.
"Wel, nuyen are nuyen, at the end of the day, whatever job you do, as long has the nuyens are there, no problem. Even if I end up doing buzz-boy"l

A dark skinned man in a beat up worn duster walks in from the humid night air. His head is wet with swaet but not that one would think caused by working but just from the temperature difference. He scans the place but does not make contact with anyones eyes. He steps to the end of the bar near the wall, grabs a towel and wipes his head. places 10 hard currancy on the bar "Bar keep a cold can of pabst if you carry it behind this counter." His old hang out Moldy's always had it in stock. The place seems well put together and laid out so the girls can make all the extra creds they like in the back rooms. Must be weary of those cubicals who else is waiting back there plus you never know are you getting 100% female when you get extra attention? "Bar keep thank you for finding me a can. That dam draft micro crap just does not have the famaldihide(sp) can beer does hahaah. You know of anyone in this joint hiring out? I need a job and want to catch on with a new group of skilled persons. I cut you 5% of what i take in my first job if you end up pointing me in the right direction."

when approached, styles nearly jumps out of his pants, the caffine raging through his blood, he graciously accepts the drink and looks toward the direction the waitress points no way.... noah and quick? what in the hell are they doing in seattle?... Styles keeps the drink in his hand... and walks towards the duo.... "private meeting chummer? dont see why not.. I was headed towards the corp private rooms anyways to burn one.... cant really be here on the floor anywayz.. damn city inspectors have been haunting Dom for quite some time.. so yeah... lets get outta view here..." * starts to head towards the staircase* (private note here... I just realized I posted the wrong picture of the Eager Beaver, I do apologize for that and have corrected the mistake... heres the picture that was suppose to be there...* theshadowrun.proboards7.com/index.cgi?board=places&action=display&n=1&thread=519 * anyone looking for minor work from Dom (the barkeeper) will recieve PMs from Mr. Johnson if there is anything available)

"Good seein ya again Stylez... the bike still rides like a dream." *knocks knuckles with Stylez*
*Give Quick our old friend handshake and stand up, heading upstairs*
"no thanks chummer" waving my hand to gesture that I'll pass on the fat one Stylez has lit. "I gotta keep my head clear for the time being... which is why I wanted to talk to you."
"I know we've only interacted a few times through my bike deal, but I'm here to get away from a fragger thats ticked me off, before I kill him. The problem is I'm here with a little over a grand with no place to sleep or work. I came to see Quick and J.J... how interesting that fate would have you here too."
"Ya know what? Pass it over bud... I think I'll take a hit after all..." *grinning... if sensei could see this... he'd beat me silly*
"I heard a couple of guys talking to the barkeep about work tonight... I want to talk to him about possibly manning the door or bodyguarding... but I'd like a back up plan... ya know?"
*ok drekhead... shut up and let him talk now... damn you and your nervous chit-chatting... this is why you can't play poker... not another*
"Cool ork friend you have too..."
*damn it*

*Styles takes a hit... holds it for a few seconds* "well ive got myself a small place right now, my shops in the process of being built.. should be done in a few days... its not much now.... ill hollar at dom about security... I overheard someone askin Dom if hes got anything small to make him a little money.. I know Doms got some errands that need to be taken care of and im sure it would be a great help to him so he can focus more on getting this club up and going * speech begins to increase in speed * its all legit stuff too.. make ya a little cash on the side."
*takes another hit*
:: offers more to Noah.. if he accepts it, if not then he continues to periodically hit from it ::
"as for Jakob... I heard his bike had a small malfuntion in it *slight grin* but its not really determined as to what happened.. I wouldnt worry about him for a while..."
"anywho, ill be more than happy to shack you up for as long as you need chummer... heres my spare scan card to get into my place :: provides address, lvl 4 scan card and Vid-phone number :: hate to chat n run but I gotta make one more drop off before I head home"
*extends fist*

"I don't know, may be good to get a little info if possible on your friend Jakob in case. Last thing you need is a surprise visit from him or his friends." *smirks* "Not to be nosey but who was your big friend? He seemed out of place here we don't get many orks in here."

"another satisfied customer.. hes cool, he doesnt know much about me or really anyhting pertaining to the situation, and even if he did, im not worried about Jakob and his crew.. I just picked up a new worker, payin him good, hes not all there in the brains department, but I assure you Jakob will think twice before being hasty at pickin a fight... ill introduce you guys to him sometime... I must warn you though.. he really isnt that smart.. good bikeman.. but he tends to respond to everything with "Daisy Duke" some oldies classical show or something.. I dunno... just dont get him mad.. thats all I can say" *wink*

*Still suprised that Stylez knows Jakob and the situation*
"uhhhmmm thanks, (takin the key and another hit) I uhhh, well, I mean I'm glad that he won't be a problem..." (*maybe the hunter card wasn't about someone I'm going to meet... maybe it's someone to watch out for...*)
"I appreciate you checking into some work for me... and I insist on paying 500¥/mo until I get my own pad... plus 1/2 utilities and food..."
"Excuse me chums... that 1st beer is catching up to me..."
*headin to the head...*
