Angus cocks an eyebrow at Anbessa, giving them a smile. "Well, I do seem to have a reputation and all it seems." He murmurs, listening in on the numbers, tapping his claws on the bar counter as he waves to everyone with his free hand. Smiling to everyone before he turns back to the bar. "Now, Anbessa. What do you want to drink?"

Dio takes a close look at Jian, trying to put together some memories. So familiar.... "Jian you say?" He questions, taking the wolf's hand and grasping it within his strong grip and giving it a few solid shakes. "It certainly does sound familiar, but I'm afraid I've been out of the loop for quite awhile now. Although I will admit, you do remind me of a certain husky I've had times with." Releasing his hand, the lion chuckles and rubs the back of his neck. "And I hope you haven't heard any bad things, now!" Within his suit-pocket, a faint buzzing is heard, soon revealed to be his communicator once slid out. Reading the message upon it, he raises an eyebrow and slips it back from which it came.

Zar is a little absorbed in soaking in the atmosphere when suddenly her brain snaps to reality and it occurs to her that the number on her raffle ticket thing came up! Oh boy, already! She turns 'round and all but frolicks up to the stage, beaming a wide grin at Rea. "Meee, that's my number!" she mewls out, waving her arms as she strides up.

Loveblade looks around the bar for more people she might know, and can't find them. Her gleaming black Anaconda body slowly moves forward after she gets her drink, one hand holding the glass and the other the straw to sip with her head a bit down and looking up over her long lashes, a third hand on her belt getting her cherry chapstick and the fourth on her hip as she glides up to Anbessa and Angus, catching their eyes and smiling in welcome "Hey guys, is this place great or what?"

Jian shakes her head. "Good things! I have heard that you are the best negotiator ever! And... I don't know why I remind you of huskies! I'm not a husky. My mother is, sometimes! I don't know. You know Edel, maybe? She's the one that told me you were good with words, so I am assuming you do."

Hasuko giggles and offers her hand to Zar to finish leading her up on the stage and take her over to Rea. Winking a bit at Rea and leaving Zar standing beside the wild haired girl. Moving to literally ruffle Rea's hair right there infront of everyone.

Rea smiles at the lion woman. "Nice to meet you, I'm Rea, and I have to say you're lovely, go ahead and take the mic, introduce yourself to those, and go ahead feel free to state what you're looking for, make sure they know what they're buying be it a good time or a friend for a bit." She laughs "Going of your number they might have, like, a tottally biased idea of whats in store for them tho." She moves the mic, allowing the other woman to speak into it, her eyes amused as she quiets down to let them speak.

Anbessa laughs lightly, him shaking his head for a moment as he watches Angus. "How about just a straight Slo gin?" He asks, chuckling afterwords as he watches Zar go up onto the stage, and also watches Jian for a curious moment. Though as he hears Loveblade, he looks towards her and shrugs, nodding his head. "Place doesn't look too bad. Though I am mainly curious about what is going on... Well, on stage." Anbessa says, him turning his attention towards Zar quietly to watch what is about to happen, him chuckling at Hasuko's teasing.

Hearing the mention of Edel, the gears click in Dio's head. "Ah!" He exclaims, laughing slightly under his breath. "I'm sorry I couldn't remember. You're the daughter of Lady Edel, are you not? She's mentioned your name here and there. You know, I hear she's gotten a brand new tea house out in the forest. I do hope business is doing well?" As the winner heads up to claim her 'prize', Dio squints his eyes. She seemed quite familiar as well! Bringing a hand to his chin, he rubs for a few moments until he finally remembers. "The receptionist," he mutters under his breath.

Angus nods a bit, picks up two Slo gin's, handing one off to Anbessa. "So, how are you liking the place so far?" He asks, turning back to watch the crowd as he smirks, yawning a bit himself as he looks around.

Jian smiles and bobs her head. "Yes! I am her second eldest daughter. The tea house business is pretty good, yes, for such an out of the way place. I am the cook! You would certainly be welcome if you would like to stop by sometime. She speaks highly of you."

Zar nods to Rea, smiling and snickering a bit at her joke. "Thank you! Alright, can do... Er.. Wait, did you say 'what they're buying'?" Before the tiger can get an answer, though, she notices the eyes on her and nearly swallows her heart. She wastes no extra time in stepping up to the microphone and carefully speaking into it. "I'm, uh..." She leans back, clears her throat and leans back in, eyes shut tight. "M-my name is Zar, annnd ummm..." She can feel herself sweat a bit but does her best to regain her composture, opening her eyes and peering at the crowd. "I like... Uhh... I'm..." Oh jeez oh jeez didn't someone mention something about dancing? Yeah, sure, why not. "I'm good at d-daaanciiing? B-bellydancing..." Her feet tap together a bit, and a blush comes over her face. "Among... other things..." Oh, dear, that's probably suggestive... Either way, she calms her thoughts and pipes down, pursing her lips in a sheepish smile.

Loveblade smiles and leaves Anbessa and Angus to get reaquainted, making her way over to the big Lion Beast she saw earlier. She's seen him at the Zephyr office often and she could swear they've talked once or twice about things, but never spent time with him or most of the people here. Might as well break the ice! Coming up she stops and waits a moment, then...stops as the mike is tapped, standing right beside the big Lion, warm and sweet, she watches the stage as Zar speaks.

Anbessa picks up his drink as Angus hands it to him, the talakai letting out a light 'wuff' in thanks before he looks back towards the stage, him smiling towards Zar's performance. Stagefright. Still a deadly disease that passes on from before P-day. Ahh. He does try to give Zar a bit of encouragement as he lets out a wolf whistle, him smiling afterwords before he returns his attention to Angus. "Looks pretty good here, to be honest." Anbessa says, watching Loveblade pass by for a moment, giving her side a tickle with his fluffy tail as she passes near him before he chuckles, returning his attention forward, taking a sip from his Slo gin, which makes him quicklet let out a happy sigh. Sweet flavor is what he can mainly taste... Too bad the alchohol gets filtered out for him.

Rea smiles and takes the mic back. "Thats great Zar, you were like, tottaly done and everything right?" She smiles at the tigress "So who's gonna buy the lady here? You heard her, she's here to dance! I'll even throw in one of the cages for whoever purchases this fine tottaly FINE woman." She winks at Zar before leaning over "You did great, sorry to put you on the spot, you seemed like, tottaly surprised, oh and another thing!" Turning back to the audience she flashes a grin "This might be something that doesn't need stated but, any one who tries to force anything gets to spend an hour in a booth with Brutus." She points to a large skunk beast bouncer who grins back and winks. "He's been kinda antsy lately, besides turn about is like, tottally fair play right?" She smiles sweetly, though her eyes are hard as steel as she talks, her stance on it rather firm.

Hasuko facepalms behind Rea and leans over to whisper in her ear. "Good god I thought you were joking about that." Shaking her head a bit while rea talks to the crowd. Tring to keep from bursting into giggles.

"She does, does she? I'm quite honored. Please send lady Edel my highest regards." Dio once again dips into a deep bow, only coming up seconds later. "I will certainly have to visit quite soon. Things have been awfully slow these days, but I'm enjoying my time relaxing and such." Seeing someone new approach him, Dio turns his focus towards the snake. "Why hello there, ma'am. How ar-" The microphone taps cease his speech, muzzle turned towards the disturbance. He couldn't help but feel bad for her predicament. Perhaps he could find a way to help her. "I shall," Dio proclaims with his booming voice, raising his hand in the air.

Zar quiets herself and peers over at Rea. She was still not entirely certain... at all... what was going on, but she stuck to her mantra of sorts: Nod and smile. She murmurs under her breath, "The hell is all this 'buyin' stuff about, meooow...?" Poor clueless Zar.

Jian glances towards the stage, blinking before she smiles to Loveblade. "Hello there! And I will send them for you, yes, Dio. I am glad to hear that you are taking it easy, though! Relaxing is good."

Angus smiles at Anbessa, nodding. "Yep, rather nice place?" He sticks his tongue out at the Talakai, finishing off his drink rather quickly. As Brutus is announced he smiles, giving the skunk beast a wave! "Make sure to make em squirm Brutus!" He teases! Whistling at Zar as she speaks.

Rea smiles as she answer Zar "It's just a fun way to get to meet people, or hang out with people you know, the creds go to you, or to your drink tab if you have one." She pats Zar's shoulder in a friendly manner "Ok, shall we say starting at one thousand credits? I'm sure this lady is worth a good bit more for a night but I like, tottaly don't know how many of you got your creds ready! Remember this goes mostly to the one you "buy" for the moment, or to settle any tab they have open. So, I'm sure I heard a go ahead from the lion in the suit, can anyone top it? Show the lady what she's really worth, come on now!"

Hasuko smiles softly at Zar, "We won't let them force you into anything you don't want dearie." Curling an arm around rea's waist from behind while she baits the crowd giving them a bit more to look at as the redhead hugs the announcer a bit.

Loveblade looks back and smiles "Hi! I've seen you around" turning toward Jian as Dio adresses the stage and raising her voice as the noise rises "I've seen you around, and wanted to meet you! My name's Love," holding out one of her hands and you notice her face is human and her four arms are well toned, her sari riding high on her bosom as she blushes excitedly at the energy from the room, and sports a definite six-pack. "I haven't been to a club in, well, forever!"

Anbessa flicks the underside of Angus' tounge with his finger as the 'yote sticks his tounge at him, him smirking as he wags his tail. "Rather." He responds, chuckling afterwords before he looks towards Dio, him chuckling playfully as he hears the starting of the auction. Man oh man, he hasn't been in one in a long tiiiime! So, Anbessa does the sensible thing. "Two thousand." Anbessa shouts, raising a paw for a moment until he spots Rea's confirmation, him wiggling his tail behind him as he smirks in Dio's direction, sipping his Slo Gin as he looks towards the lion.

Rea smiles and nods "Got a two thousand from the talakai there! Can we get two thousand five hundred? Wait, Brutus! Fine, fine, two thousand five hundred from Brutus!" She leans over to Zar "Don't worry, he's a softy, probably just thinks your cute." Putting back on her announcer smile, grinning wide "Can we get three? Anyone? Come on now, this lovely lady is worth more then three even, this is a steal, let me see those bids!"

"It certainly is, my lady," Dio responds, nodding his head. When Loveblade begins speaking, the lion turns his muzzle and delivers a warm and gentle smile. "Quite! I'm often around the Zephyr building doing various tasks, or simply eating in the cafeteria when no one's around to assist me in cooking. I'm not too great in that department I'm afraid," he chuckles, grabbing Love's hand softly and raising it to his lips for a short kiss. "It's wonderful to meet you, my lady." But it would seem pleasentries would be cut short! Another bid leaves Dio rubbing at his chin. If anything, he could at least raise the price a little. "Eight thousand," he says, raising his hand for attention.

Rea blinks "I have an eight! Anyone else? This lovely lady is worth at least ten! Come on everyone!" She leans over to Zar again "You're good at dancing right? Show off, prove how much you're worth, trust me, confidence boost is amazing, you're worth it, show em!" She grins and winks going back to trying to get more bids from the crowd after that bit of advice.

Jian gives a little bow to Loveblade. "I am Jian! It is a pleasure to meet you miss! At least... I don't think we've met before?" Introduction done, she falls quiet and turns her attention towards the stage.

Oh that cheeky little... Anbessa cannot help but chuckle as his own bid is shot down by Brutus, and then Dio by a landslide with a reraise! The Talakai can hardly help but give Dio a bit of a competitive gaze, him waving to Loveblade as he does so before he looks back up to the stage. "Sure, ten thousand!" Anbessa shouts, smiling widely with a playful mirth filling him as a small bit of nostalgia pokes at his head. But enough of that! A dance is on the line!

Loveblade smiles and looks down at Dio, blushing a bit at the gallant feline, her long tail coming up to make a couch behind her so she can rest supported by her body, room for at least 5 more sitting and more laying, but coiling tight to avoid tripping "Charmed, Mr. Dio, I'm sure" she says at the interruption and turns back to Jian as he goes back to his heated haggle "I think I could definitely come to enjoy it here. But did I hear correctly, you have a cafe outside of town? That sounds wonderful, and chic." taking a sip of her drink and padding her rest silk-scaled rest with feathered wings, smiling slyly at the commerce taking place, wondering what is next on the order, and looking forward to seeing the results! "

Angus blinks as Anbessa bets ten thousand, hip bumping him a bit as he squints. "Now, that's a lot of cred." He teases, smirking a little as he buys another drink, sipping slowly at a glass of Vodka as he watches the crowd, making sure that no one decides to get carried away.

Zar blushes up brightly once it all finally dawns on her. They're betting on /her/. She didn't win jack! Although... "The credits go to meee? ... Well it isn't SO bad." She claps her hands together a bit and giggles, practically bouncing in place for a moment before she remembers she's in front of a crowd, then going still with embarrassment. Still smiling, though! What a model Zephyr employee. "... The BOUNCER is betting on me?!" At Rea's reccommendation, she shakes her paws briefly. "O-oh no no no I couldn't. Not without the music or the clothes or- or... Well, I guess these would /barely/ suffice, but..." She scratches at the back of her head and mewls quietly.

Hasuko giggles a bit and pat's Zar's shoulder lightly, "Well the clothes would need a change but music, that we can do." Waving over toward the DJ to get the music turned up a bit to try and stroke more bids for the girl. "Better?" Still up on the stage with Zar and Rea.

Dio took a moment to think just how high he should go. At the very least, he could make sure the bouncer doesn't get the dance. Deciding to play a bit with his loose change, he goes in and raises the price. "Very well," he proclaims, "Twenty thousand shall do." With his bet out of the way, he returns his attention towards Love. "Indeed! And no need to call me mister, my lady. We can be friends right off the start. No need to be formal in a club anyways, don't you agree?" The lion laughs a small amount and nods his head. "So, would you mind telling me about yourself my lady?"

Anbessa lets out a chuckle, looking down towards Angus. "Hardly. Its pocket change." Anbessa teases, him patting Angus' head for a moment until he hears Dio's own bid, him flicking his ears at the sound of it before he smiles. "Well~! Sounds cruel, buuuut... Toss it up to Thirty-five thousand." He yips out, looking towards Dio before he looks back up to Zar, him chuckling softly at the antics going on up there as his tail sways behind him slowly. This place wouldn't be too bad to hang out at... Wait, when did his Slo Gin empty out? Aw well.

Narg drags herself inside after a short to find auctioneering is still going on... no wonder she never went to these things way back when. Chuckling the Husky pads on over to someplace comfy to sit, settling down with a sigh as she watches the goings on and wait for her turn.

Jian blinks and smiles at Loveblade again. "Of course! It's... A tea house out in the east forest! Near the base of the mountain. I just do the cooking, though. Chinese style food and tea! At affordable prices, for those who manage to make it out there!"

Angus smacks Anbessa on the rump, leaning in to whisper to the Talakai before he sits back up and passes the Talakai another Slo Gin. Tail flicking a bit as he smiles. "Come on now, show us a dance!" He shouts, chuckling a little!

Loveblade lays along the top of the couch she's formed out of her own body, facing the stage and with Jian at the 'arm' of the couch and her lying down and reclining across the back, her wings down and acting as a soft cushion along the seats as she props herself up on one hand to watch the action, another adjusts her sarong and a third rests comfortably on her hip, the fourth rests on her wing, stroking the feathers as she nuzzles them "Well, I'm not from around here, and my story is long so perhaps more later? I came here from France, having been in flight before" she flexes a wing, sending a radiant shimmer as the pristine feathers ripple "and have made this my home." she smiles at this and sips her drink, picking it up off the silken-black 'armrest' and smiling "You could say I'm putting together a few productions at the moment, maybe more if I can find the resources to feed my hobbies. I had a lot of schooling before, and so you could say I'm rebuilding a few sites to meet my own needs." she smiles "Resource Aquisition is my job for the moment" she grins, turning to Jian "I will, certainly! The forest is my favorite place near the city. I'll visit soon,!" sipping her drink she frowns, her mouth in a moue of disappointment "I'm sorry! I'm being rude, would you like to sit?" she asks, smiling at you both, distractedly watching the stage.

Rea was a bit gobsmacked at the twenty thousand before grinning wide. "And sold!" She smiles at the lion. "Treat her right for the night! She's all yours!" She grins, and gently pushes Zar towards the lion. "There, off to a brilliant start! Let see who's next shall we?" Smiling she ruffles through the hat, pulling out another number. "The surprise sale! 77! That's you Angus, come on up!" She giggles "Head of Securtiy Angus the coyote! Our little contriubtion since we can't participate ourselves! Lets go ahead and start at, hmm, one cred." She grins and winks at the coyote, giggling again.

Things were going up awfully high for a dance. Although, getting a dance out of his cat girl back home was about as hard as managing a stubborn cat back before the nanite plague. Deciding to bite the bullet, Dio raises his hand again and shouts out his bet. "Forty thousand credits." Hopefully that bet would go over well. With his attention no longer divided, he gives keen interest to Love's story and crosses his arms. "A foreigner? Quite a tale, ma'am. I'm home grown in the United States, but I wasn't born in California. Rather, New Orleans holds that right. I hide my accent quite well I think. Regardless, enough about me. I must wish you luck on your projects. We're working on a project as well where I work. Digitizing books and such. If you ever find any, K&S solutions would be more than appreciative."

Angus perks his ears up, not expecting that so suddenly! "One cred....really?" He asks as he leans in and gives Anbessa a hug before getting up and walking out on stage, giving everyone a wave as he now stands in the spotlight....Trying not to sweat about it! "Evening everyone...."

Hasuko laughs softly at that and ruffles Rea's hair a bit with a shake of her head, "So mean, one cred really?" Smiling and waving to Angus as they come up to the stage.

Anbessa was rather quickly denied his dance, though he cannot help but smirk in subtle victory, waggling his tail as Dio wins the bet. "Lucky fluff ball..." Anbessa mutters, him looking towards him before he looks towards the stage. But as soon as Angus is going up the stage, Anbessa is rather quick to shout out, "Ten thousand." Winking playfully towards the 'yote, he cannot help but wag his tail excitedly and playfully.

Jian shrugs and sits her tauric half down next to Loveblade. "I will sit, sure! Maybe not on you, though. That would be impolite, I think! I only have one question... What is France? I think it's a place!"

Luck softly intones, "page hasuko= :wonders how hasuko knew luck was in nyx's lap"

Loveblade speaks to Dio, "Oui, New Orleans was still there when I passed through, but that was years ago now. And French blood in Orleans flows strong I recall. It is good, non? But there is more to this then. The plane I took to travel here landed and we were attacked soon after. It is good that I made it here, and I will keep my eyes open for more books for you Dio. There will be time later as well, to talk more. I would enjoy talking about food with you both sometime, a subject close to my heart." and looks over to Jian, a bit surprised but smiling "Oui, there is a landmass on the far coast, if you could survive outside the bubble you could reach it, but the ocean you ave to cross over is vast, and there are monsters there now that put the Kraken to shame; a large many tentacled monster known to eat giant floating buildings, specially made, that move across the water. The sea seems impassable now, but I have hopes that will change. We have much more to offer them over there than one would think" smiling as she says this she places a hand on Jian's shoulder "but you are young n'est ce pas?"

Rea leans into Hasu and smiles at Angus "Yes, one cred, wait, nope five from Brutus right off the bat, you're loved Angus imagine that." She giggles. "We got five from the wonderful Brutus, can other takers? Anyone? This is a bit of an inflation of price here, it being a special sale after all but hey you pay what you think it's worth! Can I get a six from anyone? Anyone at all?" She winks "Though I'm sure Brutus would just love to keep Angus for the night."

Hasuko laughs and shakes her head hugging Rea back aginst her a bit, looking over at Angus, "I think Brutus REALLY likes you Angus. Maybe he'll want a dance? hehe." Quieting down a bit to listen to the bigging war.

Angus blinks at all the cred being thrown his way, hands in his pockets as he just stands there, presenting the entire room with a warm smile as he definitly isn't sweating, nope....the coyote was definitly extremly calm. Leaning forward he speaks into the mike "Got to warn ya, I'm not a good dance." He counters, smiling a little.

Zar scratches at the back of her head as it abruptly comes to a total halt, tigergirl stumbling off the stage even more confused than before. She timidly steps over to the lion, still looking rather sheepish and beyond confused. "Umm... Hiii... Wait a minute." She squints at him. She squints hard. "You're that guy what got me coffee a while back. Hey, guy." She doesn't do a lot except the usual, smiling and being fidgety.

Anbessa cannot help but sigh as he is outbidded, but with Dio out of the running, he is quick to come to Angus' defense. "20 thousand." Anbessa yips out, raising his paw over the crowd before he looks towards everyone else, him watching Loveblade and Jian for a moment before he returns his attention to the stage.

Rea blinks and grins wide. "Twenty thousand! Can I get twenty five? Do I hear a twenty five out there for this lovely yote here?" She smiles and looks around, seeing Brutus frown and sigh, grinning as she knows quite well he doesn't make THAT much. "Anyone at all? Going once!"

"It certainly does," Dio agrees, nodding his head. "Although, my bloodline doesn't have French origins as far as I'm concerned. But I must admit, I never researched my family tree very far. We certainly must talk more in the future. For now, it seems I have a dance in my future." With a smile, he walks towards Zar and looks down upon her in silence for a few moments, simply keeping that smile of his going. "You sure picked an interesting place to be, ma'am. Look before you leap is a good thing to adhere to, especially in these days," he chuckles, putting a warm hand upon Zar's shoulder. "You know, dance doesn't mean much if it's forced or paid for. It needs soul, spirit if you will. So..." He looks towards the sky, and soon releases his hand, stepping back a few inches.

"That's about all I wanted to tell you. I just wanted to make sure the uh... Horny fellow didn't nab you. I suppose I just got in the moment. A hard time with gambling in the past you see. Anyways, that'll be all. Consider our dance completed. But if you have the will and drive, why not dance for that gentleman over there," he says pointing towards Anbessa. "That way, the dance will have spirit! Not paid for you see."

Angus perks his ears up, tilting his head as he watches Anbessa, not secretly cheering that he had to spend an evening with Brutus. Fun guy, but he's still a skunk beast after all! He smirks, cocking his hips a bit as he takes a step back from the mike.

Hasuko leans over a bit to speak low to Angus, "Awww I'm sure that breaks poor Brutus' heart." Giggling a little bit, "Dunno if we'll do this again its kinda crazy."

Jian scratches her ears, a little confused by the foreign words. "Ah, yes! I am a few months old now. I was born Almost a year ago I think?" A little shrug is given. "Edel would know more about other places!"

Rea smiles, feeling she'd given them all enough time to place another bid. "And Sold!" She smiles wide "This is going rather well, go ahead and have your fun Angus, we'll page you if we need anything to blow up, or blow up anyone." She pushes Angus towards the stairs and the talakai. "Have some fun, as a thanks for agreeing to the post, drinks for you are on the house." She grins and goes back to pulling another number from the hat, the dj seeming to think it'd be funny to start up a drum roll, which quickly earns them a glare from Rea, before she pulls another piece of paper out. "And number 41! Please come on up to the stage!"

Loveblade nods once to Dio with a gracious smile and turns to Jian as she speaks, a confident grin lighting up her features from beautiful to radiant, "I'm a fool sometimes then. It's a good thing to be curious after all, and if you like, I would call ahead before I come to the cafe. We could talk more and I could show you photos, if you like."

Zar lets out a soft sigh of relief at the mention that she doesn't actually have to dance. "Hooboy. Thanks." She glances between him and Anbessa, and rubs at her neck a bit more. As Rea says 'sold', she peers at Dio and nods in Angus' direction. "Looks like he's already got somebody anyways. But. I'm, uh... Thanks." She twists her foot against the ground.

Jian claps excitedly at Loveblade. "That would be wonderful! I'm there most of the day, since I'm the only cook, but I would love to see some photos! I have seen some in the books at the library, but I cannot really go exploring too often to far away places." She frowns at this fact and scratches at her flank.

Anbessa doesn't seem to hear Dio as he smiles to Angus and Rea, him sending the two the proper amount across COMM device as he waves the 'yote over. Wagging his tail, he winks to the 'yote playfully as he stands and waits where he is at, him looking towards the stage as he hears the next number being called.

Angus stumbles a little as he is pushed, hip bumping Hasuko as he walks by. Now off the stage he starts towards Anbessa, swaying his hips slowly as he gets closer to the Talakai. "So, you won the bid hm?" He teases, leaning up to plant a kiss on Anbessa's cheek before getting him another drink.

It doesn't seem like Dio was phased by Zar's words one way or another, continuning his smile in all its intensity. "Nonsense," the lion laughs, putting a hand upon Zar's back. "If there's anything better than one dancer, it's two. At the very least, you could get introduced. Having a network of friends in this world is very important. Now..." With a slight push, he presses the tigress towards Anbessa's direction, steps back, and waves. "I'm afraid I simply can't keep up with the new club scene and such. I believe I'll retreat home soon and see if my wife's around. Be well, my lady. Until we meet again."

About fell asleep in her seat when the microphone calls out her number; the Husky jumping up out of her seat. "Huh? Wha? Oh! Right, be right up there." Narg starts to head on up to the stage, bouncing over on her feet and then jumping right up on stage. "All righty! So... whatchya need then Miss?"

Loveblade smiles and her eyes open wide, looking over at Jian and getting even more excited "I'm looking forward to it. I haven't had much chancto to share" her hand brushes Dio's in farewell as he goes off "it would be nice to see what you think," taking a moment, she shoots a glance over at Anbessa and Angus standing next to the bartender, obviously looking to see if there was a queue at the bar. "Would you like a drink with me, Jian?"

Zar stumbles as she's pushed with a slight mewl, though she turns on her heel and pouts at the lion for a few long-feeling seconds before she trots right up to him and gives him a big, dumb hug. "You're a nice guy. Call me sometime." She smiles up at him and then turns right back 'round on her heel. "I owe you," she says over her shoulder before trotting up to Anbessa. Once again, she's a mess of bashful stutters and body language. "Well, the lion-guy, uh... Dio, Dio's his name. That's right. He said to give you his dance, and he was very insistent!"

Rea smiles at the husky. "Well, well, a lovely husky! Go ahead, introduce yourself, we're having a bit of an auction, people can "buy" a dance partner, you happened to be one of the ones who drew lots to be sold, you can go ahead and say hello to the lovely people down their, like really say hello, make em want to dance!" She grins "We'll start the bidding after your introduction." She hands the mic to the husky and steps to the side a bit, giving her the stage.

Anbessa nods his head playfully towards Angus as he lets out a chuckle, him wagging his tail as he leans down to instead plant a kiss to Angus' lips. "Yep yep. Can't let my mate be stolen away, after all!" He teases, him petting Angus when he returns. "After all, when we get home we can have a long time playing about." He teases the 'yote, him perking up at the next voice he hears as he turns to see Zar. He blinks in confusion, though he soon does let out a chuckle afterwords. "Ahh?" He asks, looking towards Dio with a smile before he shrugs and nods. "Well, his choice." Anbessa says, looking towards Angus for a moment. "Wanna join in?" He asks his mate, cocking his head with a light murring noise eminating from his throat. It is like he cannot tell if he should purr like a cat, or light growl like a canine. Given he has bits from both either way, doesn't really matter.

Narg waves her tail side to side, offering Rea a wink. "An introduction eh? I can do that." Taking the mic in hand the Husky taps on the top for a moment. She speaks in her best radio host voise. "Well then! I go by Narg, as some of you out there I can see know! If your looking for someone to have a romp with or simply keep you company then I'm your girl." she smiles to the crowd "Now then, who wants to take this bitch for a ride? Or are none of ya man... or woman enough?"

Dio returns the hug and adds in a small pat, eventually breaking away and giving the room a wave before straightening his suit. Without taking the time to exchange pleasantries and goodbyes, the lion decides to slip out from the way he came without another word. Some hot tea, perhaps a book, and then straight to bed perhaps. He isn't that old, is he? Maybe they were right...

Rea frowns as someone walks over and whispers something in her ear "Krea did WHAT to Reiko? Dear lord, I'm going to beat that girl. Hasu!" Going over to Hasu she talks quickly, enraged, her face red. "Your daughter, oh my, you can go ahead and they'll explain to you, just, duct tape and and markers with Krea being like, a total bitch apparently." Sighs "She's like her mother I guess." Sighing she runs her hand through her hair. "Well, sorry about that everyone, wonderful introduction Narg! Totally great to meet you, now since she issued you a challenge I'll start the bidding, well, lets start out at around five thousand! She's worth more I'm sure just from that display! Come on brave ones, speak up, lets hear what you think she's worth!"

Jian tilts her head. "If I do get a drink, nothing alcoholic! I should stay away from that. I like juice and water, though!" She nods and glances back towards the stage for a moment.

Loveblade receives a beep on her micro-computer and looks at her wrist "Zut!" getting up and adjusting herself, "I am Sorry Jian, but we will talk soon. Would you say goodbye to the others for me please?" as she puts herself together. Glancing around she meets Anbessas eye and Dio's as well, giving Jian a quick hug "Soon, I will call and we will have coffee. Au Revoir!"

Angus perks his ars up, looking back to the stage as he raises a hand. "twenty thousand!" He instantly throws out, gringing a little as he holds up his drink as he gives the husky a wink, leaning on Anbessa a little as his tail wags!

Hasuko blinks and facepalmls, patting Rea before going off to take care of the girls. "Ok ok I'll go check it out." The redhead shaking her head and heading out to take care of what her daughters are up to.

Rea smiles "Ah Angus! Twenty thousand right off! Can I hear twenty five? Twenty five anyone? Comeon don't let the yote win THAT easy!" She smiles "Though he might end up winning in the end regardless put up a fight! Look at her!" She looks Narg over herself and whistles before leaning in "If I weren't happily married." She winks and giggles "Well, twenty going once!"

Narg giggles at Rea, winking a bit as goes to the edge of the stage to take a seat, arms resting on the stage as she leans foreward to stare at the room, licking her lips a she scans the place with her brown eyes.

Zar settles down next to Anbessa and peers up at the stage, exhaling deeply and blinking a few times. "Man, if this were any less conspicuous a place, I'd be slave fodder." She peers between Angus and Anbessa a few times, though for the mostpart keeps to herself for now. Might as well wait 'til the bidding's over.

Angus smirks at Narg, giving her a wink before he leans up and whispers in Anbessa's ear before checking the time, then looking at the bartender. He orders himself another drink, slamming it back before he leans up and plants a kiss on Anbessa's cheek, before sneaking off.

Rea looks about "And Sold! Go ahead, join that like, tottaly fine yote down there Narg!" She smiles and sighs "And now I must take my leave! Family problems obviously, daughters can be a handfull." She takes a small bow and looks up and winks. "Feel free to enjoy the drinks and hospitality of my club! Brutus is charge, and well, you've heard his version of kicking people out." She laughs and stands up. "Have like, a tottaly WONDERFUL evening! Good night!"

Anbessa looks towards Angus with a smile as he lets the 'yote lean on him, him perking up at the 'yote's whisper before he nods his head, lowering a paw to pat Angus' head as his other paw reaches up to pet lightly at the back of Zar's head comfortingly, him looking down at her with a nod. "True true. But it is more like a playdate than anything, I would say." He says, looking up towards the stage as he waves over Narg.

He murmurs, listening in on the numbers, tapping his claws on the bar counter as he waves to everyone with his free hand. Smiling to everyone before he turns back to the bar. "Now, Anbessa. What do you want to drink?"<br> <br>Dio takes a close look at Jian, trying to put together some memories. So familiar.... "Jian you say?" He questions, taking the wolf's hand and grasping it within his strong grip and giving it a few solid shakes. "It certainly does sound familiar, but I'm afraid I've been out of the loop for quite awhile now. Although I will admit, you do remind me of a certain husky I've had times with." Releasing his hand, the lion chuckles and rubs the back of his neck. "And I hope you haven't heard any bad things, now!" Within his suit-pocket, a faint buzzing is heard, soon revealed to be his communicator once slid out. Reading the message upon it, he raises an eyebrow and slips it back from which it came.<br> <br>Zar is a little absorbed in soaking in the atmosphere when suddenly her brain snaps to reality and it occurs to her that the number on her raffle ticket thing came up! Oh boy, already! She turns 'round and all but frolicks up to the stage, beaming a wide grin at Rea. "Meee, that's my number!" she mewls out, waving her arms as she strides up.<br> <br>Loveblade looks around the bar for more people she might know, and can't find them. Her gleaming black Anaconda body slowly moves forward after she gets her drink, one hand holding the glass and the other the straw to sip with her head a bit down and looking up over her long lashes, a third hand on her belt getting her cherry chapstick and the fourth on her hip as she glides up to Anbessa and Angus, catching their eyes and smiling in welcome "Hey guys, is this place great or what?"<br> <br>Jian shakes her head. "Good things! I have heard that you are the best negotiator ever! And... I don't know why I remind you of huskies! I'm not a husky. My mother is, sometimes! I don't know. You know Edel, maybe? She's the one that told me you were good with words, so I am assuming you do."<br> <br>Hasuko giggles and offers her hand to Zar to finish leading her up on the stage and take her over to Rea. Winking a bit at Rea and leaving Zar standing beside the wild haired girl. Moving to literally ruffle Rea's hair right there infront of everyone.<br> <br>Rea smiles at the lion woman. "Nice to meet you, I'm Rea, and I have to say you're lovely, go ahead and take the mic, introduce yourself to those, and go ahead feel free to state what you're looking for, make sure they know what they're buying be it a good time or a friend for a bit." She laughs "Going of your number they might have, like, a tottally biased idea of whats in store for them tho." She moves the mic, allowing the other woman to speak into it, her eyes amused as she quiets down to let them speak.<br> <br>Anbessa laughs lightly, him shaking his head for a moment as he watches Angus. "How about just a straight Slo gin?" He asks, chuckling afterwords as he watches Zar go up onto the stage, and also watches Jian for a curious moment. Though as he hears Loveblade, he looks towards her and shrugs, nodding his head. "Place doesn't look too bad. Though I am mainly curious about what is going on... Well, on stage." Anbessa says, him turning his attention towards Zar quietly to watch what is about to happen, him chuckling at Hasuko's teasing.<br> <br>Hearing the mention of Edel, the gears click in Dio's head. "Ah!" He exclaims, laughing slightly under his breath. "I'm sorry I couldn't remember. You're the daughter of Lady Edel, are you not? She's mentioned your name here and there. You know, I hear she's gotten a brand new tea house out in the forest. I do hope business is doing well?" As the winner heads up to claim her 'prize', Dio squints his eyes. She seemed quite familiar as well! Bringing a hand to his chin, he rubs for a few moments until he finally remembers. "The receptionist," he mutters under his breath.<br> <br>Angus nods a bit, picks up two Slo gin's, handing one off to Anbessa. "So, how are you liking the place so far?" He asks, turning back to watch the crowd as he smirks, yawning a bit himself as he looks around. <br> <br>Jian smiles and bobs her head. "Yes! I am her second eldest daughter. The tea house business is pretty good, yes, for such an out of the way place. I am the cook! You would certainly be welcome if you would like to stop by sometime. She speaks highly of you."<br> <br>Zar nods to Rea, smiling and snickering a bit at her joke. "Thank you! Alright, can do... Er.. Wait, did you say 'what they're buying'?" Before the tiger can get an answer, though, she notices the eyes on her and nearly swallows her heart. She wastes no extra time in stepping up to the microphone and carefully speaking into it. "I'm, uh..." She leans back, clears her throat and leans back in, eyes shut tight. "M-my name is Zar, annnd ummm..." She can feel herself sweat a bit but does her best to regain her composture, opening her eyes and peering at the crowd. "I like... Uhh... I'm..." Oh jeez oh jeez didn't someone mention something about dancing? Yeah, sure, why not. "I'm good at d-daaanciiing? B-bellydancing..." Her feet tap together a bit, and a blush comes over her face. "Among... other things..." Oh, dear, that's probably suggestive... Either way, she calms her thoughts and pipes down, pursing her lips in a sheepish smile.<br> <br>Loveblade smiles and leaves Anbessa and Angus to get reaquainted, making her way over to the big Lion Beast she saw earlier. She's seen him at the Zephyr office often and she could swear they've talked once or twice about things, but never spent time with him or most of the people here. Might as well break the ice! Coming up she stops and waits a moment, then...stops as the mike is tapped, standing right beside the big Lion, warm and sweet, she watches the stage as Zar speaks. <br> <br>Anbessa picks up his drink as Angus hands it to him, the talakai letting out a light 'wuff' in thanks before he looks back towards the stage, him smiling towards Zar's performance. Stagefright. Still a deadly disease that passes on from before P-day. Ahh. He does try to give Zar a bit of encouragement as he lets out a wolf whistle, him smiling afterwords before he returns his attention to Angus. "Looks pretty good here, to be honest." Anbessa says, watching Loveblade pass by for a moment, giving her side a tickle with his fluffy tail as she passes near him before he chuckles, returning his attention forward, taking a sip from his Slo gin, which makes him quicklet let out a happy sigh. Sweet flavor is what he can mainly taste... Too bad the alchohol gets filtered out for him.<br> <br>Rea smiles and takes the mic back. "Thats great Zar, you were like, tottaly done and everything right?" She smiles at the tigress "So who's gonna buy the lady here? You heard her, she's here to dance! I'll even throw in one of the cages for whoever purchases this fine tottaly FINE woman." She winks at Zar before leaning over "You did great, sorry to put you on the spot, you seemed like, tottaly surprised, oh and another thing!" Turning back to the audience she flashes a grin "This might be something that doesn't need stated but, any one who tries to force anything gets to spend an hour in a booth with Brutus." She points to a large skunk beast bouncer who grins back and winks. "He's been kinda antsy lately, besides turn about is like, tottally fair play right?" She smiles sweetly, though her eyes are hard as steel as she talks, her stance on it rather firm. <br> <br>Hasuko facepalms behind Rea and leans over to whisper in her ear. "Good god I thought you were joking about that." Shaking her head a bit while rea talks to the crowd. Tring to keep from bursting into giggles.

"Good god I thought you were joking about that." Shaking her head a bit while rea talks to the crowd. Tring to keep from bursting into giggles.<br> <br>"She does, does she? I'm quite honored. Please send lady Edel my highest regards." Dio once again dips into a deep bow, only coming up seconds later. "I will certainly have to visit quite soon. Things have been awfully slow these days, but I'm enjoying my time relaxing and such." Seeing someone new approach him, Dio turns his focus towards the snake. "Why hello there, ma'am. How ar-" The microphone taps cease his speech, muzzle turned towards the disturbance. He couldn't help but feel bad for her predicament. Perhaps he could find a way to help her. "I shall," Dio proclaims with his booming voice, raising his hand in the air.<br> <br>Zar quiets herself and peers over at Rea. She was still not entirely certain... at all... what was going on, but she stuck to her mantra of sorts: Nod and smile. She murmurs under her breath, "The hell is all this 'buyin' stuff about, meooow...?" Poor clueless Zar.<br> <br>Jian glances towards the stage, blinking before she smiles to Loveblade. "Hello there! And I will send them for you, yes, Dio. I am glad to hear that you are taking it easy, though! Relaxing is good."<br> <br>Angus smiles at Anbessa, nodding. "Yep, rather nice place?" He sticks his tongue out at the Talakai, finishing off his drink rather quickly. As Brutus is announced he smiles, giving the skunk beast a wave! "Make sure to make em squirm Brutus!" He teases! Whistling at Zar as she speaks.<br> <br>Rea smiles as she answer Zar "It's just a fun way to get to meet people, or hang out with people you know, the creds go to you, or to your drink tab if you have one." She pats Zar's shoulder in a friendly manner "Ok, shall we say starting at one thousand credits? I'm sure this lady is worth a good bit more for a night but I like, tottaly don't know how many of you got your creds ready! Remember this goes mostly to the one you "buy" for the moment, or to settle any tab they have open. So, I'm sure I heard a go ahead from the lion in the suit, can anyone top it? Show the lady what she's really worth, come on now!"<br> <br>Hasuko smiles softly at Zar, "We won't let them force you into anything you don't want dearie." Curling an arm around rea's waist from behind while she baits the crowd giving them a bit more to look at as the redhead hugs the announcer a bit.<br> <br>Loveblade looks back and smiles "Hi! I've seen you around" turning toward Jian as Dio adresses the stage and raising her voice as the noise rises "I've seen you around, and wanted to meet you! My name's Love," holding out one of her hands and you notice her face is human and her four arms are well toned, her sari riding high on her bosom as she blushes excitedly at the energy from the room, and sports a definite six-pack. "I haven't been to a club in, well, forever!"<br> <br>Anbessa flicks the underside of Angus' tounge with his finger as the 'yote sticks his tounge at him, him smirking as he wags his tail. "Rather." He responds, chuckling afterwords before he looks towards Dio, him chuckling playfully as he hears the starting of the auction. Man oh man, he hasn't been in one in a long tiiiime! So, Anbessa does the sensible thing. "Two thousand." Anbessa shouts, raising a paw for a moment until he spots Rea's confirmation, him wiggling his tail behind him as he smirks in Dio's direction, sipping his Slo Gin as he looks towards the lion.<br> <br>Rea smiles and nods "Got a two thousand from the talakai there! Can we get two thousand five hundred? Wait, Brutus! Fine, fine, two thousand five hundred from Brutus!" She leans over to Zar "Don't worry, he's a softy, probably just thinks your cute." Putting back on her announcer smile, grinning wide "Can we get three? Anyone? Come on now, this lovely lady is worth more then three even, this is a steal, let me see those bids!"<br> <br>"It certainly is, my lady," Dio responds, nodding his head. When Loveblade begins speaking, the lion turns his muzzle and delivers a warm and gentle smile. "Quite! I'm often around the Zephyr building doing various tasks, or simply eating in the cafeteria when no one's around to assist me in cooking. I'm not too great in that department I'm afraid," he chuckles, grabbing Love's hand softly and raising it to his lips for a short kiss. "It's wonderful to meet you, my lady." But it would seem pleasentries would be cut short! Another bid leaves Dio rubbing at his chin. If anything, he could at least raise the price a little. "Eight thousand," he says, raising his hand for attention.<br> <br>Rea blinks "I have an eight! Anyone else? This lovely lady is worth at least ten! Come on everyone!" She leans over to Zar again "You're good at dancing right? Show off, prove how much you're worth, trust me, confidence boost is amazing, you're worth it, show em!" She grins and winks going back to trying to get more bids from the crowd after that bit of advice.<br> <br>Jian gives a little bow to Loveblade. "I am Jian! It is a pleasure to meet you miss! At least... I don't think we've met before?" Introduction done, she falls quiet and turns her attention towards the stage.<br> <br>Oh that cheeky little... Anbessa cannot help but chuckle as his own bid is shot down by Brutus, and then Dio by a landslide with a reraise! The Talakai can hardly help but give Dio a bit of a competitive gaze, him waving to Loveblade as he does so before he looks back up to the stage. "Sure, ten thousand!" Anbessa shouts, smiling widely with a playful mirth filling him as a small bit of nostalgia pokes at his head. But enough of that! A dance is on the line!<br> <br>Loveblade smiles and looks down at Dio, blushing a bit at the gallant feline, her long tail coming up to make a couch behind her so she can rest supported by her body, room for at least 5 more sitting and more laying, but coiling tight to avoid tripping "Charmed, Mr. Dio, I'm sure" she says at the interruption and turns back to Jian as he goes back to his heated haggle "I think I could definitely come to enjoy it here. But did I hear correctly, you have a cafe outside of town? That sounds wonderful, and chic." taking a sip of her drink and padding her rest silk-scaled rest with feathered wings, smiling slyly at the commerce taking place, wondering what is next on the order, and looking forward to seeing the results! "<br> <br>Angus blinks as Anbessa bets ten thousand, hip bumping him a bit as he squints. "Now, that's a lot of cred." He teases, smirking a little as he buys another drink, sipping slowly at a glass of Vodka as he watches the crowd, making sure that no one decides to get carried away.<br> <br>Zar blushes up brightly once it all finally dawns on her. They're betting on /her/. She didn't win jack! Although... "The credits go to meee? ... Well it isn't SO bad." She claps her hands together a bit and giggles, practically bouncing in place for a moment before she remembers she's in front of a crowd, then going still with embarrassment. Still smiling, though! What a model Zephyr employee. "... The BOUNCER is betting on me?!" At Rea's reccommendation, she shakes her paws briefly. "O-oh no no no I couldn't. Not without the music or the clothes or- or... Well, I guess these would /barely/ suffice, but..." She scratches at the back of her head and mewls quietly.<br> <br>Hasuko giggles a bit and pat's Zar's shoulder lightly, "Well the clothes would need a change but music, that we can do." Waving over toward the DJ to get the music turned up a bit to try and stroke more bids for the girl. "Better?" Still up on the stage with Zar and Rea.<br> <br>Dio took a moment to think just how high he should go. At the very least, he could make sure the bouncer doesn't get the dance. Deciding to play a bit with his loose change, he goes in and raises the price. "Very well," he proclaims, "Twenty thousand shall do." With his bet out of the way, he returns his attention towards Love. "Indeed! And no need to call me mister, my lady. We can be friends right off the start. No need to be formal in a club anyways, don't you agree?" The lion laughs a small amount and nods his head. "So, would you mind telling me about yourself my lady?"<br> <br>Anbessa lets out a chuckle, looking down towards Angus. "Hardly. Its pocket change." Anbessa teases, him patting Angus' head for a moment until he hears Dio's own bid, him flicking his ears at the sound of it before he smiles. "Well~! Sounds cruel, buuuut... Toss it up to Thirty-five thousand." He yips out, looking towards Dio before he looks back up to Zar, him chuckling softly at the antics going on up there as his tail sways behind him slowly. This place wouldn't be too bad to hang out at... Wait, when did his Slo Gin empty out? Aw well.<br> <br>Narg drags herself inside after a short to find auctioneering is still going on... no wonder she never went to these things way back when. Chuckling the Husky pads on over to someplace comfy to sit, settling down with a sigh as she watches the goings on and wait for her turn.<br> <br>Jian blinks and smiles at Loveblade again. "Of course! It's... A tea house out in the east forest! Near the base of the mountain. I just do the cooking, though. Chinese style food and tea! At affordable prices, for those who manage to make it out there!"<br> <br>Angus smacks Anbessa on the rump, leaning in to whisper to the Talakai before he sits back up and passes the Talakai another Slo Gin. Tail flicking a bit as he smiles. "Come on now, show us a dance!" He shouts, chuckling a little!<br> <br>Loveblade lays along the top of the couch she's formed out of her own body, facing the stage and with Jian at the 'arm' of the couch and her lying down and reclining across the back, her wings down and acting as a soft cushion along the seats as she props herself up on one hand to watch the action, another adjusts her sarong and a third rests comfortably on her hip, the fourth rests on her wing, stroking the feathers as she nuzzles them "Well, I'm not from around here, and my story is long so perhaps more later? I came here from France, having been in flight before" she flexes a wing, sending a radiant shimmer as the pristine feathers ripple  "and have made this my home." she smiles at this and sips her drink, picking it up off the silken-black 'armrest' and smiling "You could say I'm putting together a few productions at the moment, maybe more if I can find the resources to feed my hobbies. I had a lot of schooling before, and so you could say I'm rebuilding a few sites to meet my own needs." she smiles "Resource Aquisition is my job for the moment" she grins, turning to Jian "I will, certainly! The forest is my favorite place near the city. I'll visit soon,!" sipping her drink she frowns, her mouth in a moue of disappointment "I'm sorry! I'm being rude, would you like to sit?" she asks, smiling at you both, distractedly watching the stage. <br> <br>Rea was a bit gobsmacked at the twenty thousand before grinning wide. "And sold!" She smiles at the lion. "Treat her right for the night! She's all yours!" She grins, and gently pushes Zar towards the lion. "There, off to a brilliant start! Let see who's next shall we?" Smiling she ruffles through the hat, pulling out another number. "The surprise sale! 77! That's you Angus, come on up!" She giggles "Head of Securtiy Angus the coyote! Our little contriubtion since we can't participate ourselves! Lets go ahead and start at, hmm, one cred." She grins and winks at the coyote, giggling again.<br> <br>Things were going up awfully high for a dance. Although, getting a dance out of his cat girl back home was about as hard as managing a stubborn cat back before the nanite plague. Deciding to bite the bullet, Dio raises his hand again and shouts out his bet. "Forty thousand credits." Hopefully that bet would go over well. With his attention no longer divided, he gives keen interest to Love's story and crosses his arms. "A foreigner? Quite a tale, ma'am. I'm home grown in the United States, but I wasn't born in California. Rather, New Orleans holds that right. I hide my accent quite well I think. Regardless, enough about me. I must wish you luck on your projects. We're working on a project as well where I work. Digitizing books and such. If you ever find any, K&S solutions would be more than appreciative."<br> <br>Angus perks his ears up, not expecting that so suddenly! "One cred....really?" He asks as he leans in and gives Anbessa a hug before getting up and walking out on stage, giving everyone a wave as he now stands in the spotlight....Trying not to sweat about it! "Evening everyone...."<br> <br>Hasuko laughs softly at that and ruffles Rea's hair a bit with a shake of her head, "So mean, one cred really?" Smiling and waving to Angus as they come up to the stage.<br> <br>Anbessa was rather quickly denied his dance, though he cannot help but smirk in subtle victory, waggling his tail as Dio wins the bet. "Lucky fluff ball..." Anbessa mutters, him looking towards him before he looks towards the stage. But as soon as Angus is going up the stage, Anbessa is rather quick to shout out, "Ten thousand." Winking playfully towards the 'yote, he cannot help but wag his tail excitedly and playfully.<br> <br>Jian shrugs and sits her tauric half down next to Loveblade. "I will sit, sure! Maybe not on you, though. That would be impolite, I think! I only have one question... What is France? I think it's a place!"<br> <br>Luck softly intones, "page hasuko= :wonders how hasuko knew luck was in nyx's lap"<br> <br>Loveblade speaks to Dio, "Oui, New Orleans was still there when I passed through, but that was years ago now. And French blood in Orleans flows strong I recall. It is good, non? But there is more to this then. The plane I took to travel here landed and we were attacked soon after. It is good that I made it here, and I will keep my eyes open for more books for you Dio. There will be time later as well, to talk more. I would enjoy talking about food with you both sometime, a subject close to my heart." and looks over to Jian, a bit surprised but smiling "Oui, there is a landmass on the far coast, if you could survive outside the bubble you could reach it, but the ocean you ave to cross over is vast, and there are monsters there now that put the Kraken to shame; a large many tentacled monster known to eat giant floating buildings, specially made, that move across the water. The sea seems impassable now, but I have hopes  that will change. We have much more to offer them over there than one would think" smiling as she says this she places a hand on Jian's shoulder "but you are young n'est ce pas?" <br> <br>Rea leans into Hasu and smiles at Angus "Yes, one cred, wait, nope five from Brutus right off the bat, you're loved Angus imagine that." She giggles. "We got five from the wonderful Brutus, can other takers? Anyone? This is a bit of an inflation of price here, it being a special sale after all but hey you pay what you think it's worth! Can I get a six from anyone? Anyone at all?" She winks "Though I'm sure Brutus would just love to keep Angus for the night." <br> <br>Hasuko laughs and shakes her head hugging Rea back aginst her a bit, looking over at Angus, "I think Brutus REALLY likes you Angus. Maybe he'll want a dance? hehe." Quieting down a bit to listen to the bigging war.<br> <br>Angus blinks at all the cred being thrown his way, hands in his pockets as he just stands there, presenting the entire room with a warm smile as he definitly isn't sweating, nope....the coyote was definitly extremly calm. Leaning forward he speaks into the mike "Got to warn ya, I'm not a good dance." He counters, smiling a little.<br> <br>Zar scratches at the back of her head as it abruptly comes to a total halt, tigergirl stumbling off the stage even more confused than before. She timidly steps over to the lion, still looking rather sheepish and beyond confused. "Umm... Hiii... Wait a minute." She squints at him. She squints hard. "You're that guy what got me coffee a while back. Hey, guy." She doesn't do a lot except the usual, smiling and being fidgety.<br> <br>Anbessa cannot help but sigh as he is outbidded, but with Dio out of the running, he is quick to come to Angus' defense. "20 thousand." Anbessa yips out, raising his paw over the crowd before he looks towards everyone else, him watching Loveblade and Jian for a moment before he returns his attention to the stage.<br> <br>Rea blinks and grins wide. "Twenty thousand! Can I get twenty five? Do I hear a twenty five out there for this lovely yote here?" She smiles and looks around, seeing Brutus frown and sigh, grinning as she knows quite well he doesn't make THAT much. "Anyone at all? Going once!"<br> <br>"It certainly does," Dio agrees, nodding his head. "Although, my bloodline doesn't have French origins as far as I'm concerned. But I must admit, I never researched my family tree very far. We certainly must talk more in the future. For now, it seems I have a dance in my future." With a smile, he walks towards Zar and looks down upon her in silence for a few moments, simply keeping that smile of his going. "You sure picked an interesting place to be, ma'am. Look before you leap is a good thing to adhere to, especially in these days," he chuckles, putting a warm hand upon Zar's shoulder. "You know, dance doesn't mean much if it's forced or paid for. It needs soul, spirit if you will. So..." He looks towards the sky, and soon releases his hand, stepping back a few inches.
+"That's about all I wanted to tell you. I just wanted to make sure the uh... Horny fellow didn't nab you. I suppose I just got in the moment. A hard time with gambling in the past you see. Anyways, that'll be all. Consider our dance completed. But if you have the will and drive, why not dance for that gentleman over there," he says pointing towards Anbessa. "That way, the dance will have spirit! Not paid for you see."<br> <br>Angus perks his ears up, tilting his head as he watches Anbessa, not secretly cheering that he had to spend an evening with Brutus. Fun guy, but he's still a skunk beast after all! He smirks, cocking his hips a bit as he takes a step back from the mike.<br> <br>Hasuko leans over a bit to speak low to Angus, "Awww I'm sure that breaks poor Brutus' heart." Giggling a little bit, "Dunno if we'll do this again its kinda crazy."<br> <br>Jian scratches her ears, a little confused by the foreign words. "Ah, yes! I am a few months old now. I was born  Almost a year ago I think?" A little shrug is given. "Edel would know more about other places!"<br> <br>Rea smiles, feeling she'd given them all enough time to place another bid. "And Sold!" She smiles wide "This is going rather well, go ahead and have your fun Angus, we'll page you if we need anything to blow up, or blow up anyone." She pushes Angus towards the stairs and the talakai. "Have some fun, as a thanks for agreeing to the post, drinks for you are on the house." She grins and goes back to pulling another number from the hat, the dj seeming to think it'd be funny to start up a drum roll, which quickly earns them a glare from Rea, before she pulls another piece of paper out. "And number 41! Please come on up to the stage!"<br> <br>Loveblade nods once to Dio with a gracious smile and turns to Jian as she speaks, a confident grin lighting up her features from beautiful to radiant, "I'm a fool sometimes then. It's a good thing to be curious after all, and if you like, I would call ahead before I come to the cafe. We could talk more and I could show you photos, if you like."<br> <br>Zar lets out a soft sigh of relief at the mention that she doesn't actually have to dance. "Hooboy. Thanks." She glances between him and Anbessa, and rubs at her neck a bit more. As Rea says 'sold', she peers at Dio and nods in Angus' direction. "Looks like he's already got somebody anyways. But. I'm, uh... Thanks." She twists her foot against the ground.<br> <br>Jian claps excitedly at Loveblade. "That would be wonderful! I'm there most of the day, since I'm the only cook, but I would love to see some photos! I have seen some in the books at the library, but I cannot really go exploring too often to far away places." She frowns at this fact and scratches at her flank.<br> <br>Anbessa doesn't seem to hear Dio as he smiles to Angus and Rea, him sending the two the proper amount across COMM device as he waves the 'yote over. Wagging his tail, he winks to the 'yote playfully as he stands and waits where he is at, him looking towards the stage as he hears the next number being called.<br> <br>Angus stumbles a little as he is pushed, hip bumping Hasuko as he walks by. Now off the stage he starts towards Anbessa, swaying his hips slowly as he gets closer to the Talakai. "So, you won the bid hm?" He teases, leaning up to plant a kiss on Anbessa's cheek before getting him another drink.<br> <br>It doesn't seem like Dio was phased by Zar's words one way or another, continuning his smile in all its intensity. "Nonsense," the lion laughs, putting a hand upon Zar's back. "If there's anything better than one dancer, it's two. At the very least, you could get introduced. Having a network of friends in this world is very important. Now..." With a slight push, he presses the tigress towards Anbessa's direction, steps back, and waves. "I'm afraid I simply can't keep up with the new club scene and such. I believe I'll retreat home soon and see if my wife's around. Be well, my lady. Until we meet again."<br> <br>About fell asleep in her seat when the microphone calls out her number; the Husky jumping up out of her seat. "Huh? Wha? Oh! Right, be right up there." Narg starts to head on up to the stage, bouncing over on her feet and then jumping right up on stage. "All righty! So... whatchya need then Miss?"<br> <br>Loveblade smiles and her eyes open wide, looking over at Jian and getting even more excited "I'm looking forward to it. I haven't had much chancto to share" her hand brushes Dio's in farewell as he goes off "it would be nice to see what you think," taking a moment, she shoots a glance over at Anbessa and Angus standing next to the bartender, obviously looking to see if there was a queue at the bar. "Would you like a drink with me, Jian?"<br> <br>Zar stumbles as she's pushed with a slight mewl, though she turns on her heel and pouts at the lion for a few long-feeling seconds before she trots right up to him and gives him a big, dumb hug. "You're a nice guy. Call me sometime." She smiles up at him and then turns right back 'round on her heel. "I owe you," she says over her shoulder before trotting up to Anbessa. Once again, she's a mess of bashful stutters and body language. "Well, the lion-guy, uh... Dio, Dio's his name. That's right. He said to give you his dance, and he was very insistent!"<br> <br>Rea smiles at the husky. "Well, well, a lovely husky! Go ahead, introduce yourself, we're having a bit of an auction, people can "buy" a dance partner, you happened to be one of the ones who drew lots to be sold, you can go ahead and say hello to the lovely people down their, like really say hello, make em want to dance!" She grins "We'll start the bidding after your introduction." She hands the mic to the husky and steps to the side a bit, giving her the stage.<br> <br>Anbessa nods his head playfully towards Angus as he lets out a chuckle, him wagging his tail as he leans down to instead plant a kiss to Angus' lips. "Yep yep. Can't let my mate be stolen away, after all!" He teases, him petting Angus when he returns. "After all, when we get home we can have a long time playing about." He teases the 'yote, him perking up at the next voice he hears as he turns to see Zar. He blinks in confusion, though he soon does let out a chuckle afterwords. "Ahh?" He asks, looking towards Dio with a smile before he shrugs and nods. "Well, his choice." Anbessa says, looking towards Angus for a moment. "Wanna join in?" He asks his mate, cocking his head with a light murring noise eminating from his throat. It is like he cannot tell if he should purr like a cat, or light growl like a canine. Given he has bits from both either way, doesn't really matter.<br> <br>Narg waves her tail side to side, offering Rea a wink. "An introduction eh? I can do that." Taking the mic in hand the Husky taps on the top for a moment. She speaks in her best radio host voise. "Well then! I go by Narg, as some of you out there I can see know! If your looking for someone to have a romp with or simply keep you company then I'm your girl." she smiles to the crowd "Now then, who wants to take this bitch for a ride? Or are none of ya man... or woman enough?"<br> <br>Dio returns the hug and adds in a small pat, eventually breaking away and giving the room a wave before straightening his suit. Without taking the time to exchange pleasantries and goodbyes, the lion decides to slip out from the way he came without another word. Some hot tea, perhaps a book, and then straight to bed perhaps. He isn't that old, is he? Maybe they were right...<br> <br>Rea frowns as someone walks over and whispers something in her ear "Krea did WHAT to Reiko? Dear lord, I'm going to beat that girl. Hasu!" Going over to Hasu she talks quickly, enraged, her face red. "Your daughter, oh my, you can go ahead and they'll explain to you, just, duct tape and and markers with Krea being like, a total bitch apparently." Sighs "She's like her mother I guess." Sighing she runs her hand through her hair. "Well, sorry about that everyone, wonderful introduction Narg! Totally great to meet you, now since she issued you a challenge I'll start the bidding, well, lets start out at around five thousand! She's worth more I'm sure just from that display! Come on brave ones, speak up, lets hear what you think she's worth!"<br> <br>Jian tilts her head. "If I do get a drink, nothing alcoholic! I should stay away from that. I like juice and water, though!" She nods and glances back towards the stage for a moment.<br> <br>Loveblade receives a beep on her micro-computer and looks at her wrist "Zut!" getting up and adjusting herself, "I am Sorry Jian, but we will talk soon. Would you say goodbye to the others for me please?" as she puts herself together. Glancing around she meets Anbessas eye and Dio's as well, giving Jian a quick hug "Soon, I will call and we will have coffee. Au Revoir!"<br> <br>Angus perks his ars up, looking back to the stage as he raises a hand. "twenty thousand!" He instantly throws out, gringing a little as he holds up his drink as he gives the husky a wink, leaning on Anbessa a little as his tail wags!<br> <br>Hasuko blinks and facepalmls, patting Rea before going off to take care of the girls. "Ok ok I'll go check it out." The redhead shaking her head and heading out to take care of what her daughters are up to.<br> <br>Rea smiles "Ah Angus! Twenty thousand right off! Can I hear twenty five? Twenty five anyone? Comeon don't let the yote win THAT easy!" She smiles "Though he might end up winning in the end regardless put up a fight! Look at her!" She looks Narg over herself and whistles before leaning in "If I weren't happily married." She winks and giggles "Well, twenty going once!"<br> <br>Narg giggles at Rea, winking a bit as goes to the edge of the stage to take a seat, arms resting on the stage as she leans foreward to stare at the room, licking her lips a she scans the place with her brown eyes.<br> <br>Zar settles down next to Anbessa and peers up at the stage, exhaling deeply and blinking a few times. "Man, if this were any less conspicuous a place, I'd be slave fodder." She peers between Angus and Anbessa a few times, though for the mostpart keeps to herself for now. Might as well wait 'til the bidding's over.<br> <br>Angus smirks at Narg, giving her a wink before he leans up and whispers in Anbessa's ear before checking the time, then looking at the bartender. He orders himself another drink, slamming it back before he leans up and plants a kiss on Anbessa's cheek, before sneaking off.<br> <br>Rea looks about "And Sold! Go ahead, join that like, tottaly fine yote down there Narg!" She smiles and sighs "And now I must take my leave! Family problems obviously, daughters can be a handfull." She takes a small bow and looks up and winks. "Feel free to enjoy the drinks and hospitality of my club! Brutus is charge, and well, you've heard his version of kicking people out." She laughs and stands up. "Have like, a tottaly WONDERFUL evening! Good night!"<br> <br>Anbessa looks towards Angus with a smile as he lets the 'yote lean on him, him perking up at the 'yote's whisper before he nods his head, lowering a paw to pat Angus' head as his other paw reaches up to pet lightly at the back of Zar's head comfortingly, him looking down at her with a nod. "True true. But it is more like a playdate than anything, I would say." He says, looking up towards the stage as he waves over Narg.[[Category:RPLogs]]
