Open Club Thread

[Switch]

Switch sat back at her stool at the bar, before waving over the bartender. "Can I have a glass of water, please?"

She dropped a handful of credits on the counter, she had not paid for any of her previous drinks yet.

 

[Carden Lorps]

Carden walked back to the bar and sat down still in his thoughts a out his father.

 

[Switch]

Switch chugged down the entire glass of water she was given. She still had a funny taste in her mouth... All in all, it seemed a relatively small price to pay, but still. She lit a third cigarette, smoking it lethargically. It was a weird night, she couldn't figure what the problem was, though...

The music changed to a slower song, something more melodic. It was soothing, but somehow, it made her sad. Switch pressed her cheek against the bar, closing her eyes.

 

[Jaime]

In the club walked a pretty girl.

Spoiler

She wore a simple white dress with a leather jacket over it and a black fedora on top of her lovely hair. She had on a pair of white sneakers and wielded a small purse to hold some valuables. She approached the bar and asked, "Corellian ale if you would."

 

[Carden Lorps]

Carden looked at the newly entered girl Carden decided to talk to her "hey im Carden, you are?"

 

[Jaime]

When the drink arrived a man introduced himself. She gave him a smile to greet him. "Jaime," she said.

She took a sip of her ale then returned her attention to him. "What bring you here Carden?" she asked.

[Carden Lorps]

"Not much ma'am just waiting for a person to offer me a job, what about you?"

 

[Jaime]

"Oh me?" Jaime said, "I'm just here for the sights. I don't visit clubs often. Or Coruscant for that matter."

She took another sip of her drink then asked, "What kind of job are you looking for?"

[member="Carden Lorps"]

 

[Carden Lorps]

"Whatever gets me paid ma'am but ive been here for a while" Carden lets out a harsh laugh

 

[Jaime]

Jaime gave a chuckle to go with his laugh. "Well I don't need to be harsh but you would have better luck at a cantina than a club. Clubs are to dance and get away. Or conduct private business. I hate to say it but you might be in the wrong place," she said before taking another sip.

She notice that the music was slower with a melodic tone, perfect for dancing. "So what are you going to do now?" she asked.

 

[Iris Tyrad]

Iris exited the bathroom, and started to wonder back to his seat. He noticed the boy, Carden, had wondered away from his seat. "Guess he went to bark up some other poor birds tree.." He muttered under his breath as he sat back down.

He turned towards the still drugged up woman, "sorry about earlier by the way" slurring his words from the alcohol earlier "but I don't think we've been formally introduced" Iris held his hand out, ready for a handshake. However he quickly put it away when he noticed the woman resting on the desk, he didn't expect much communication now. Quickly, Iris gestured for another drink.

[Carden Lorps]

"I might just hang here for a while" he said in a normal tone. then looking back at where he was sitting noticing the man was back.

 

[Jaime]

"Hmm," was the reply as she took another sip of her drink. The music was beautiful. She gave a sigh. She wished someone would sweep her off her feet and take her dancing. Her eyes watched the dance floor as couples swayed with the slow music. She's been alone most of her life. It was fine days but sometimes she longed for companionship.

 

[Carden Lorps]

Carden decided to go back to his thoughts of his father not even noticing the girl starring at the dance floor.

 

[Switch]

Switch sat back up in her stool. She was feeling a bit better, cracking her neck and shoulders as she dropped her cigarette on the floor. It had burnt out when she wasn't looking. She heard the man next to her attempt an introduction, before quickly pulling his hand away.

What's up with that? She reached her hand loosely across the gap between the two, tapping the bar with the other to get some service again.

[Iris Tyrad]

"Oh sorry I thought you'd past out" Iris laughed, at the dramatic mood swings of this characters were something he'd never seen before. He grabbed the hand she presented, not tightly though, he might hurt her. As he shook her hand, he finally dropped the question he was eager to know the answer to, "so, ughh, what's you name?"

[member="Switch"]

 

[Switch]

The man took her hand, but he was barely applying any pressure. Either he didn't know how to give a handshake, or she looked more sick than she thought. Switch squeezed his hand, turning their handshake into a firm one.

"It's Switch... Call me Switch. And you?"
[member="Iris Tyrad"]

 

[Iris Tyrad]

Guessing she had either ignored, or not heard him earlier, Iris repeated his name "the names Iris, Iris Tyrad" he didn't blame the woman for not hearing him, she did look terrible to say the least. Iris thought she'd had enough drinks for one night, but it didn't look like she shared the same thought, instead she gestured for more drinks, by tapping the counter.

"You may of heard of me on the news" Iris joked, though there was a hint of smugness in his voice. It was possible that he was featured on the new, due to his recent acts of terrorism, but it was unlikely.

[Carden Lorps]

Carden was tired and walked back to his old seat not paying attention and bumped into the scum that was talking to switch, he didn't mean to though.

 

[Switch]

Switch stared at [member="Iris Tyrad"] for a moment. "Hold up a sec. Did I already ask your name? Sorry... my head isn't on straight, right now. Another shot of whiskey slid over, coming to a perfect stop in front of her. What the hell? She couldn't see where it had come from. That bartender has a dumb sense of humor.

She shook out of her reverie, Iris was saying something. Something about being on the news. He probably thinks I recognize him... "I don't really watch the news."
