"Don't I know it. OK that sounds like a decent gig to me. I think I could be considered interested. Look I was just going to get a room here. If you want, I'd sign whatever disclosure agreement I would need to go and see this place. I'd give you an anwser about working for you after that. Just let me get another cup of coffee." Amelia says finishing off her current cup. She has been up for too long already but she is curious about this work.

"Glad I could help," he responds shortly. "Now, I think I'd better get back to work...I think you mentioned earlier that some of the rooms need tidying...?"
((I don't have anything else of great significance to add to this scene, so we can close it up and just put Leo to work whenever you're ready. He'll have other plot-related things to do later, but for now he'll help out around the Inn and interact with some of the customers if Naku and Mist are busy.))
"And I appreciate it." Naku says with a nod. She hadn't learned anything she didn't already know, but it had been worth a shot. It was also kinda fun, and got Leo's suspicions dealt with in the best way she could think of.

"Go ahead and go with Mist, and he'll show you around." Naku says, before smiling at the two of them, and finally turning to Aiden.
"Hallo!"

Aiden smiles back at Naku and stands from his seat. "Hey you. Anything exciting happen while I was gone?"

"Not tooooo much. Just hired a new guy who decided he wanted to do some sort of looking at my soul to see what's there. That was fun.
Besides that, not too much going on. How about you? Any progress on the cafe?"

Re: [NEXIS] The Dancing Fox Inn IX: No Longer Symmetrical
Makaria and Ashara, presumably, arrive!
They're met at the door by a pretty female Tiefling with straight horns and purple skin, dressed in leather armor, who smiles at them, and motions for them to follow her to the table.

The grinning Makaria complies, trying to drag Ashara with her!

And Ashara is dragged!
Once they're seated, the other Tiefling smiles at them, pulling out a notepad and a pencil.
"I'm Fear; what can I get for you two today?"

She asks.

Fear blushes, tail twisting uneasily.

She asks.

"Definitely an option, yeah." Fear grins and nods, writing it down. "Anything else? Drinks and such...? We've got all the major ones, and a bunch of weird stuff too."

"Sure do. Both radioactive and non. Any preference on which?"
Ashara, meanwhile, orders a Black Shadow.

"Err... Sorta like wild magic?" Fear doesn't really know too well either, being from the same area as Makaria, but that's the closest she can get.

Makaria replies.

Fear nods, and heads off to get their drinks and their food! She'll be back in a few posts, once the hamburgers are ready.
"So... What is there to know about you, anyhow?" Ashara asks quietly, kissing Makaria's cheek.

Hmm... Nothing that I haven't already told you, him.
Makaria smiles, and kisses her cheek as well.

"Oh? Fair enough... Don't even get to know if you worship anyone or hate deities in general for what your brother did and such, though?"
Ashara pokes her playfully, giggling.

Aiden decides to gloss over the whole soul-peering thing. "Actually, I'm open now, and actually managing to make some money," he says.

No real preference, honestly.
She giggles, and puts an arm around her.

"Mm... I see, makes sense. How'd you end up with your powers? And how are you liking me being your new owner? Better than the last ones?"
Ashara grins down at her, returning the arm.

"Oh, very nice!" Naku says, smiling and nodding at him before being completely taken aback by the return of at least Fear, who just went right to work rather than even saying hello. Huh.
"That's great, Aiden," she says, shaking her head slightly, shrugging mentally, and turning back to Aiden. "and I'm really happy for you."

A foolhardy pact in a hope for power.
You're my first one, actually.
She says, smiling

Re: [NEXIS] The Dancing Fox Inn IX: No Longer Symmetrical
Well, Naku was sorta busy. She'll probably say hello when there's not other stuff going on.
Meanwhile, she returns to the table, bearing drinks and food!

The best that it could possibly be!
Makaria replies, and kisses her.

"Thanks, Naku," Aiden says. "I'm pretty happy about it myself. I''d tell you to stop by, but woth the sunlight thing...""

She replies, smiling.
