::Eastwood's mouth curved into a small smile:: You could try bartending...however the pay sucks, as well as the tips. Hence why I said I was thinking of a new line of work.

RikoSeryuji (Or you could post an announcement who's playing NPCs and where. I know before my inactive streak (which I'm really sorry about) I was playing the NPC doctor at the hospital. If you just put it there, since everyone should read the announcements, then you can call the people who still do this noobs and banning them would seem a little more legitimate and less spiteful. BTW, I edited my post and am waiting for the bartender's response. And W.T. (my nickname for you, wolves tears) I love your sig, it made me laugh when I was having a bad day, so thank you! )

  Katrina couldn't help smirking just a little as the girl asked for a good place to make money. Or she can just try working for the government like I do. Damn the salaries are good!
Sayo laughed in her head. Better not tell her though. If you say anything about it you might get in trouble. After all, it was supposed to be a secret organization. It was hard to tell if Katrina would be able to keep the job if she went telling people about it and where it was and stuff.
I know, I know. It's just a thought. Katrina took a sip of her water. "It depends what job your looking for though. Do you have any special talents? I heard doctors earn a lot."

 I'm through living in sorrow... Tessa didn't understand what the bartender meant when he said the pay sucks. Some money was better than no money, since it could keep her stomach from being empty.
"Umm...don't you have to...learn a lot about drinks and stuff to be a bartender? I...don't really know anything about it...this is actually my first time in a bar..."
Tessa then turned to Katrina as she spoke to her. Tessa wasn't aware that someone else was listening to her conversation, so at first, she was a little shocked. But afterwards, she thought about what the woman had said.
"Well...I do have some...special talents...but I doubt I could get a job from any of them...and plus, they might scare people a little..."
For the first time, however, Tessa actually felt a little encouraged to show off what she could do. She had spent so much of her life hating her powers, but now they were an asset...though not really in this situation. Tessa took her mostly empty glass of water and held it in front of her.
"Okay, I can do a lot more that this, but I don't want to freak too many people out..."
Concentrating her energy through her hand into the cup, Katrina could see that a small flower began to grow right in the cup, seemingly from nowhere. Another joined it, and another, until the cup of water became a full bouquet of flowers, which Tessa put on a table. She then picked a few of the flowers, holding them in her right hand.
"I have the power to make things grow and live, but I also have another one..."
Concentrating negative energy into her hand now, the flowers that she picked started to turn black and shrivel up, eventually turning to dust.
"I can make things die. That's about all I can actually do...sorry if its a little freaky..." ...Now, it's time for me to just live.

"Police then? FBI maybe?" Katrina listed possible suggestions as she took another sip of her water.
Still, what this girl could do was nothing unusual and it didn't surprise Katrina too much. It was obviously based on some kind of 'magic' or 'energy'. Realy it kind of disapointed Katrina, after all she didn't like using magic when fighting, but nevertheless it was interesting to look at, even she had to admit that.
Katrina took another sip of her water.

I'm through living in sorrow... "M-Maybe...I guess..."
Tessa could tell that Katrina wasn't too impressed with her power, and she felt kind of offended by it. She expected some kind of surprised reaction, this wasn't something that people saw every day.
"I-It's not the only thing I can do, though! I can fight too! And I'm pretty strong. Look at this!"
Tessa focused her energy again, forming her massive sword. She effortlessly flipped the weapon around in one hand before letting it rest on her shoulder. She had forgotten all about being inconspicuous, now she was trying to impress someone.
"I've been in tons of fights, and I usually use this to fight. I guess it intimidates people, so I keep using it in this form, though I can make it take almost any form...And I'm really hard to kill too! I've been shot, stabbed through, burned, and tons of other things...none of them pleasant, but I can survive it all. So, what do you think about that?"
It was east to tell from her eyes that Tessa was expecting some kind of impressed response desperately, almost like she needed it. ...Now, it's time for me to just live.

A broad smirk spread across Katrina's face. "Well, then why don't you try to get into the FBI? Even the police would work. Your talents would definately come in handy there." She paused for a second. "Or maybe join the army or something?"
The next part of the girl's sentence surprised her slightly though."So, what do you think about that?" It sounded like she was trying to impress everyone; 'showing-off' even, kind of. Katrina blinked in surprise at the desperation in her voice. For her sake, she quickly added in with a smile. "That's pretty interesting if you can survive through all of that. Like I said, that would come in handy if you were in the army or something." She shrugged. "Of course that's just what I think."

I'm through living in sorrow... "Hmm...the army?"
Tessa realized that she didn't know much about the Army either; she didn't know a lot about a lot of things.
"I'm not exactly sure, but don't army people have to cut their hair and everything? No way would I do that, I like my hair long. Maybe the police or the FBI ones would make a better job for me. But, I really don't know how I would become one of them...I really...haven't had much of a life since I was 13, so I never really got to learn about getting a job..."
Tessa sat down again, this time looking a bit sad.
"I'm kind of pathetic, I know...I'm not that smart, and I don't have any real skills at all...but I'm trying to keep positive! I'll find something that I can do...hopefully...being hungry is annoying, but it won't kill me."
Tessa turned as a guy walked past the both of him and just grabbed a drink on his own and opened it, plopping himself down on a chair.
"Umm...excuse me, sir, but you have to ask the bartender for a drink...you can't just get one yourself. I'm pretty sure its against the rules..." ...Now, it's time for me to just live.

-ryu walked in and the smell of smoke and noise from music and people talking assaulted his senses like a punch to the face- ahh i missed this place. -he looked around and saw tessa. he walked up to the bar and sat down next to her.he waved to eastwood-
hey Eastwood long time no see haha. i'll have a pina colada please. yeeah i'm just in that kind of mood that i need a little perking up. by the way do you have any of those little umbrellas that you could put in the glass? i'd appreciate it but if you dont its cool either way. -he turned to tessa- well well a familiar face haha i i dont think i've seen you since our fight. well just in case i didnt properly introduce myself im ryu -he smiled at tessa but still felt awkward and had a bit of a lump in his throat. the fact that he fought tessa already sort of made it easier to talk to her but the pretty girl factor still made him kind of apprehensive-

Katrina shrugged. "Eh...I don't know then. You'll probably find some job sooner or later." Sayo, you've been awfully quiet.I know, I'm trying to figure out what those two are up to. Mentally, Katrina felt Sayo nod towards the two men who had been talking about a night club. I just want to find out what they're doing. Their auras are so dark....Just forget 'em. Wait and see if they'll try anything and then, if they do, we'll confront them, okay? We shouldn't start a fight in here for no reason y'know...

::Eastwood just shook his head. A summoned weapon usually weighed next to nothing so he was generally unimpressed. He heard a call for a drink.He looked up and sighed, not even bothering this time. He muttered to himself:: I need to put up a damn sign. What is it with kids thinking they can just waltz in here and drink? Sometimes...
::When Warren felt there were enough people here for his plans he slowly stood up. He turned his back to the bar so he was facing the entire group of people. When he spoke he made sure it was loud enough for everyone to catch:: Attention patrons of the bar! As you may or may not know this...er...hotel has recently come under assault by what appears to be a syndicate of people with malicious intent for this area. While normally I would do nothing about such a thing nor would I help such a place I, like any other person, like my peace and quiet. Thus I propose a job for everyone who feels up to the task. Whomever can find, kill, and bring back proof of the death of the leader of this organization will be paid a hefty sum from my personal coffers. While this monetary value is not of the current currency of this era it is of a far greater worth. The sum of three thousand gold crowns. As we all know gold is good in any day and age. The only catch to this is you must do this task before my Dragoon friend here ::He paused to make a gesture towards Mortemus:: Does it himself. Believe me he is not one to wait around nor is he one to share his bounty. So I must now ask...who is up to the task?
::After Warren had pointed him out Mortemus rose to his full height, towering over almost everyone in the bar. The only one who came close to his height that he could see was Eastwood. He cracked his knuckles beneath his clawed gauntlets. His eyes glistened, anxious to jump back in the fray of battle...for it is what he existed for. He fought the urge to summon his weapon, eventually reigning in control of it. While he had not expected this out of Warren it was indeed a welcome challenge. No doubt he was oiling up Mortemus so he could be at peak performance::

Katrina listened to what he said. "Eh...no thanks. I'll pass..."
The moment she said that Sayo spoke to her, sounding surprised. Wait...did I hear that right? You not wanting to go up to a challenge? There was a pause. Did you...fall face-first into a fan then smash your head into a wall again or something?Why yes, Sayo...yes I did...but that's not the reason. She looked over at Mortemus, her eyebrows raised. He has a pretty strong aura, I'll give him that, but it seems like all his power is based on magic...or at least the majority of it anyways. Enough said. Katrina never liked going against any magic-users since the fights were always boring to her. Of course it seemed like so many people used magic to fight. Katrina sighed. Whatever happened to just punching each other in the face? Honestly...people these days rely too much on magic and fancy technology.... Why can't they just....?
Sayo interrupted her. Well...why don't you let me try it out?Sayo you're stuck in my body...
Another pause. Right... Mentally, Sayo slepped her forehead. Why do I always forget that? Of course Sayo knew she would be able to get out eventually...even though it would take quite a while.
Katrina looked towards the bar. "Bartender? Can you get me a glass of water please?"

::Mortemus stepped forward a little bit, putting himself as the center of everyone's attention:: I don't expect anyone to step forward Warren ::When he spoke it was obvious it was more towards everyone else, that he was taunting them:: I have only been matched once in combat. My strength is unparalleled. These ::he made a gesture to the group:: simple combatants look more suited towards your magics and book that my brute strength and steel.

Ah! There, see? He said he can use strength too! Not just magic.Oh.......so...why don't you....They said it was a 'contest' to find the leader of that one group who attacked the hotel. Katrina sank back in her chair. I don't feel like wasting my time to find that guy. I'll kill that leader if he ever tries to attack me or something. We came here to relax anyway. Not go on some mission.
There was a brief pause. You're right... I guess if it's not me doing the fighting it'll be boring anyway.
