I made all of this very clear in the initial description. I rather feel you didn't bother to read past the first few sentences.
-
Reyna raised an eyebrow at the conversation but didn't make a remark on it. Obviously this woman knew her way around.
"Small town about thirty miles away." Reyna replied mildly. It was a lie, but she was good at lying. -
(Technically you never stated we couldn't have over one character... But I suppose you implied it.)
-
Maru nodded, taking another sip. The stuff didn't have a very good taste, but all things considered, it would suffice.
"What town?" -
"It was called Stam, after its founder," Reyna shrugged, "doesn't even show up on maps."
She leaned back against the counter, watching the screen of the TV. -
With a nervous grin, Vivian walked over to her share of the money, and started to pack it back up. Well, it wasn't really her share, it was Melody's share, but Vivian was smart enough not to bring this up with Nikkili. It was better to not bother the man if you could avoid it.
Taking what she could, Vivian stood back up; pulling a cell phone from her pocket. "Do you mind if I make a quick call, sir? I mean, we are pretty much done here." When Nikkili gave a quick nod, Vivian leaned against the door frame.
The phone rang for a few seconds, before the voice on the other side picked it up. Vivian went straight to the point, "Melody, meet me at the bar. Bring Neon. We have some...things we need to discuss." Just as quickly as she started, she hung up again.
When she looked back up, Nikkili was gone. A retreating shadow racing down the back alleys once again. Vivian waited for a minute to gather her thoughts, before leaving out the front door. God, Melody was going to hate cleaning her front lawn tomorrow. Vivian was glad she wouldn't need to do it. -
(... But before I left...)
But before Nikkili left, he asked Vivian a question: "Do you want to leave my hand now?" -
(Leave your hand? Clarify.)
-
Maru grunted indifferently, finishing her half glass.
"Never heard of it. Nother drink, if you would." she called, holding up the empty cup. The guy took it with narrowed eyes and squinted down at her.
"What kind of connections?" he asked, picking up the bottle again. He took the lid off but held it for the moment without pouring any.
"All kinds. We'll discuss specifics later, sweetie."
"I don't like-"
"All kinds, my friend. Please don't start this now."
He gritted his teeth for a second but poured the drink and slid it across the counter toward her waiting hand. She picked it up and sipped it again. This was another one of her habits she desperately needed to work on. Drinking just because she was in a bar.
"Don't let me get any more after this." she chuckled, peeking out the side of her eyes at Reyna. -
(As in leave Nikkili for... Ever. For a small fee.)
-
(I'm the bad guy, correct?)
-
(Vivian is already paying a fee to leave Nikkili. What did you think the 5K was for?)
Walking away, Vivian thought back to her meeting with Nikkili. More specifically, the deal he'd offered. God, she hated him so much. Her problems were not a joke open for ridicule! Her memories condensed as she walked, it felt like she was there all over again.
Vivian stared at Nikkili in disbelief, before scowling again. "You're a real sick b------, you know that? How dare you make such a joke at my expense! Get out of my house! Get out and take your filthy money with you!" -
(Although, it would be more accurate to say she was paying a fee to have Nikkili leave her alone, but still. And yes, you are the bad guy. Maru/Sun is your assistant. Keep up.)
-
(I know I'm the bad guy. *Crosses legs on couch made of confetti* Like a boss. Plus, I thought the 5K was simply for a past debt, not leaving... Yet.)
Nikkili was walking through a thin patch of forest and... -
"It's your own mind, control it." Reyna said coolly. She really hated people who drank. Why would you lose yourself in alcohol? You could be spending the time solving your problems?
"Where did you come from?" She.added after a moment.
