You got records back home? [No offense, Vyng, you kinda look like an Olde Timey Elven Guy from the woods.

Saxsice notes the quick subject change and wisely goes with it.] Called it "On The Rocks". Cause it was...on the rocks.

[spiritwalks]

Music bottles, actually. But people will still sign deals with producers. Somebody's gotta handle the actual recording and distributing, you know?

[He chuckles at the name.]

Very clever.

[With a half-lidded smile, he adds:]

You know, my buddy and I got a bar here. Maybe you and I could meet after closing time one night, eh? Mix some spirits, make a little magic. You seem like somebody who could show me a thing or two.

[queenking]

Oh yeah, for sure. Gotta have someone business-minded involved. [Despite literally running her own business, Saxsice knows jack-all about the inner workings.]

You do? Really? [Her whole face just lights up.] That'd be awesome! I was real worried I was gonna have to...get a job sellin' flowers or somethin'. Seems like the kinda thing they'd make women do here.

[spiritwalks]

[That makes two of them.

Vyng mostly made the connection because his childhood friend Danny Buoy became a famous music producer. Also, My Alchemical Romance has been on the brain ever since Trenchies started talking about the Black Parade, so that might explain why somebody (he hasn't seen in over half a century, no less) is at the forefront of his mind today. He hopes Danny's doing well for himself.

Saxcise's enthusiastic assertion catches Vyng off guard, though.]

Huh? Oh, uh. Wait. You mean...you actually want to work for us?

[queenking]

Yes. [A beat.] No. [Another beat.] Maybe?

[Saxsice finally frowns, raising and lowering her shoulders.] If that's what you want? I'm not really doin' anythin' else with my time. Unless this is like...a special secret bar-runnin' club, which I totally respect.

[spiritwalks]

No, the bar's open for anybody. You just have to get past our snappy gator-keeper.
