"It'd Be a Shame if a Garrison Had to Leave You Here..." Log Date: 8/26/97 Log Cast: Cami Garrison, Lerren (NPC), Howie Darklighter, Rellawy Woodlake, Kendra Sa'argreen, Thraknor Log Intro: The past couple of days had been tense for Rell, but no tenser than usual; thankfully, there had been absolutely no sign of the thug Galdric and his Gamorrean partner, and she had begun to wonder whether her sense of the two of them had finally begun to wear off. Several days had passed since she'd healed Galdric, and she'd only glancingly touched Tabak during the fight with Drake... long enough to get him back onto his feet again. Thomas Drake's sense in her mind had faded -- though Rell suspected that was due more to his having left the moon than time passed since she'd healed his blaster burn. She'd shown up when she could for work in the Burning Deck, and the usual motley band of sentients had made their rounds of the place. The tiny rodentoid had been a change of pace -- Rell was amazed that a creature smaller than she and apparently rather more defenseless was running about Nar Shaddaa, and she found herself worrying about the little creature who'd called himself Meenik, as the bar got started for another day of business... ---------- Cami comes through the double swinging doors and enters the bar from the floor outside. Cami has arrived. Cami walks into the bar, her eyes bleary and red, from lack of sleep..Her appearance slightly disheveled..and moves towards the bar, after glancing about, sitting down heavily on a stool, and sighs.."Stong black caf please.." Looking slightly drowsy himself at this time of the continually active day of the Smuggler's Moon, the bartender nods gruffly and starts building a coffee; behind him on a countertop is a brewing pot, smelling of the stuff, not too old quite yet. Cami sifts through her utility belt for some credits, and lays them onto the bar, yawning..blinking a couple times and mutters under her breath. The requested coffee is provided, along with a 'there yah go,' from the bartender. He's actually got a cup of the stuff himself, which he turns to drink from, once the customer is served. Must not be too bad a brew, if the 'tender is drinking it. Cami sighs and takes a sip of coffee, leaning back in her stool, glancing at the sparsely populated bar, and rubs her eyes. Not too many sentients here, no, not at this hour. Some die-hards are hanging out nevertheless, a scattering of beings mostly keeping to themselves as they nurse whatever beverages they've been provided. The Deck's young waitress is in view, moving tiredly herself, cleaning off the top of one of the unoccupied tables. Cami mumbles something and pulls out a small pocket secretary and flips it open..typing quickly, looking up to glance about occasionally. For the most part, the bar remains pretty much quiet, the relative silience unbroken save by the occasional drunken babbling of the amphibious-looking sort of creature parked in the booth at the very back of the bar, and the shuffle of the chairs hoisted up and over as the waitress does her work. Cami looks up..keeping an eye on the door..as if watching for someone and sighs..going back to her typing. Howie comes through the double swinging doors and enters the bar from the floor outside. Howie has arrived. The bar continues to be quiet at this hour, as the Burning Deck's bartender hands out rather more coffee than liquor for once to get his credits, and its waitress works her way through the unoccupied tables, cleaning off their surfaces. Both the bartender and the young waitress look rather tired this morning, the waitress more so. Cami sits at the bar and glances up, spotting Howie and smiles slightly, nodding, waving him over..her appearance, like she hasn't slept..her eyes a bit puffy and red, a data pad in her hands. Howie walks in through the blaster beaten swinging double doors. He takes a few steps in and looks at the surroundings. He sees Cami waving him over and thinks for a few seconds, looking around again before deciding to walk over to her. He takes a seat at the bar next to Cami, "I see we meet again." Cami Standing before you is a human female. She stands about 5'8" tall and weighs about 140 lbs. Her black hair is held together in a thick braid that hangs down her waist. Her blue eyes are alert, and take in her surroundings quickly. She is dressed simply in a green jumpsuit, that has patches ripped off the sleeve. And a black utility belt around her waist. Around her hips is a holster which houses her blaster. Her black, calf length boots are polished, and zipper up the sides. She wears a black leather coat, that looks like a duster, and has the sleeves rolled up. Her complexion is fair, but with the healthy glow of the outdoors. Howie Standing before you is a man who stands about six foot tall. He has deep brown hair and clear, sea colored green eyes. For now, you can't see the green eyes since he is wearing a pair of gold rimmed, sunglasses. The glass lens are reflecting. His hair is smoothed back and seems to be just perfect, it doesn't stick up too much and isn't flat. He is wearing a brown flight jacket. The jacket it a bit puffy and seems to be used. There are some small rips on it. The jacket has a leather exterior, only a few area still reflects light, some parts seems dull now. On the jacket are some old patches with pictures of a pair of wings and others with different items on it. There are two pockets near the waste area of the flight jacket. The jacket is zipped half-way up from the top, exposing a green flight suit with a collar and few buttons below the collar. The jacket seems to be made of some sort of soft material. He is wearing a pair of green flight pants. They are tucked into his black boots. The black boots contain black laces and black rubber soles. When Howie walked, you can hear light thumbs on the ground. When he sees you looking in his direction, he gives you a nice smile and a curt nod before turning back and continuing his business. Cami smiles and points to a seat.."Make yer self comfy..I have a few questions Darklighter.." Howie doesn't move in his seat and grins, "So, I come here to relax and now I get interrogated, guess a usual day for me then. Okay, whats up?" Howie looks at you for a moment. Cami smiles slightly and leans over..speaking only so he can hear.."What's the word?..I must tell you, that I had three men following me last night..They caught up with me at The Kache..I didn't much appreciate it.." Off across the bar, Rell swings a chair out and away from one of the tables, wrinkling her nose at the stain of spilled alcohol upon it. This she wipes down with her cleaning cloth, and when she swings the chair back into place, something under the table lets out an indignant squeak. The waitress leans over, peers in under the table, and sighs. "Out o' there, with ye. We're not a hotel. Go sleep somewhere else." With some effort, she coaxes the inebriated creature out of there and sends it staggering towards the door. Howie raises a brow, looking around cautiously, then turns his attention back to Cami, "What do you mean, what's the word? And who were the men that were following you?" Cami smiles and shrugs slightly..Keeping her voice low.."I have a ship full of supplies..If you want them..set something up..And also..these men didn't leave greeting cards..But they said they didn't like who I worked for..That threw me a bit..I now have to hire a security team.." Howie nods and looks straight forward, then says, "I can probably patch you through in a couple of days, the security part I can provide in space, on the ground, I won't be much help. I have a blaster but that won't do much." Leaving the pair of customers to their private conversation, the bartender goes about his business, once hollering over to the waitress, "Rell! Need another coupla bottles of brandy up here, kid. Get 'em from the back, will yah?" "Aye, Lerren," returns the waitress, aiming off towards the back of the bar and the dingy entraceway back there. Cami smiles slightly and quirks a brow.."I have a whole locker full..I used to hunt..But it doesn't do ya much good if you're outnumbered..They said they knew which ship was mine..That worried me a bit.. Howie grins, "Well, if it makes you feel better, anybody would know which ship is mine. And what I'm doing with the ship. Just to let you know that you're not alone in this galaxy." Cami chuckles a bit and nods..sipping her coffee.."Buy ya a caf..or something stronger?"..and rubs her eyes..stifling a yawn with the back of her hand. Howie grins, "I'll take a Corellian Whiskey, Whyren's Reserves if they have them." Cami glances at the bartender and rolls her eyes slightly.."Expensive tastes..Corellian Whisky for my friend here..Whyren's Reserve.." As if magnetically drawn over by the mention of whiskey -- the bartender, it seems, has a good filter on his hearing, and alcohol gets through quite well even when he's not obviously in earshot -- the man's back over in a blink. He cracks a grin and says lazily, "Lady, we got every kind of Corellian liquor you can name. Comin' right up." He goes about pouring out a mug of the requested brew. Kendra comes through the double swinging doors and enters the bar from the floor outside. Kendra has arrived. Howie grins and says, "I can pay for it, doesn't always have to be you paying for it you know." Cami chuckles and waves her hand.."You don't take it with you." And she drops some credits onto the bar. The young waitress emerges from the back again, bearing a bottle of brandy in either hand; she approaches the bar and hefts them across it to her employer, observing, "As ye wanted, Ler. Found a '92 and a '98." As the bartender's occupied with handing the man his whiskey, he just nods to Rell, before turning to take the bottles and set them into easy reach on the shelves behind him. Kendra A young female human, Kendra is slightly below-average in height and has a light, trim, build. Her hair is chestnut in color, and is usually pulled back in a loose ponytail to keep it out of her way. (It tends to be flyaway in dry ship air.) Her eyes are striking, not in particular brilliance but in color, because they can't seem to make up their minds if they are brown or green, and so are an interestingly speckled mix of the two. She's wearing simple, versatile clothes: well-worn pants, a light tunic, and a heavy duty vest with a sprinkling of pockets. Rellawy(#242Pc) This is a young human woman, about 5'4" in height, with a stocky, compact build. Her hair is a sun-streaked mass of honey-gold, framing a face with generously defined features, and a faint smattering of freckles across her nose and cheekbones. She is not exactly lovely, not with a slight crook to that freckled nose and a jawline too broadly drawn to be delicate, but neither is she truly plain; rather, there is something austere and elemental about her, centered in the blue-green gaze of her slant-set, almond-shaped eyes. When she speaks, it is with a soft lilting brogue. Her clothing is old and faded in hue. There's a dusty blue shirt probably originally intended for a man, its sleeves rolled up to her elbows, its tails tucked into black work breeches that sport several pockets along their legs, and which are in turn tucked into calf-high, travel-worn brown suede boots. Most of her hair is caught back behind her neck in a thick, sloppy ponytail bound down near its end with blue leather; the rest of it, though, has been wound into a pair of braids before either of her ears, and into one of these braids is wound another blue thong, sporting several tiny glass beads and a pair of dark-streaked brown feathers. Howie asks, "What kind of supplies have you gotten, Miss Garrison?" Kendra slips in through the doors, looking around carefully. A grin settles onto her face as she approves of the place, and heads toward the bar. Cami quirks a brow slightly and chuckles.."Oh..ship parts..med supplies..survival packs..food..Corellian Ale..Nerf Steak..Basics.." By the door, the big ursoid on duty as guard sniffs passingly at the third customer to enter in about ten minutes, before settling back down to keep his vigil. The waitress returns to her own business, scanning the place for anything else that needs cleaning, and any other sentients that might need to be pried out of their seats. Howie nods, "Thats good. All that stuff, we need. Even though some are considered luxury foods to me." He ends his comment with a smile. Cami chuckles and drinks at her caf and shrugs.."Basic where I lived..Why suffer when ya don't have to?..That's my motto for things..And besides..I really need to be kept busy right now..Personal reasons.." Kendra reaches the bar, nodding a greeting to the people there. Cami glances toward Kendra and returns the nod..smiling slightly, before turning back to Howie. Howie nods to Kendra and takes a sip from his mug. He turns back to Cami, "Well, I've been pretty busy myself, usual patrols and reconnaissance duty. I get pulled for double shifts, sometimes triple shifts." The bartender, at the arrival of Kendra, ambles over to her with a gruffly amiable, "What'll it be?" Kendra half-listens to the conversation as she turns to the bartender, "Got any of that Chandrillan ale in?" she asks, scanning the shelves. Cami chuckles a bit and sighs..smoothing out her hair and looks down at her mug..frowning slightly at something..before clearing her head with a slight shake and turning back towards Howie.."If you can notify me..as quickly as you can..I would appreciate it..Especially in light of what happened last night.." The grizzled Corellian behind the bar considers, surveying his stock himself, then turning back around with a regretful. "Nope, missed that on the last shipment. Getcha somethin' else instead?" Howie nods and grins, "Well, in space, if you need any help, you know who to call, I'll just swoop in and vape a few of your back. Nothing to it." Kendra nods, "Sure, any other ale you'd recomend?" she turns back toward Cami and Howie, listening with intrest. Cami chuckles and shrugs.."I don't think they're stupid enough to attack me there..I just don't like the fact they mentioned my family..Especially my father.." Howie asks, with a little concern in his voice, "Where's your father now?" "Try this on for size," the bartender advises, turning to scoop up a small, fat bottle of something that smells strangely fruity as he pops its cork. As he pours the stuff out into a small mug, the liquid within the bottle can be seen to be a delicate, faintly orangeish shade, and as he presents it to Kendra, he adds, "Sunfruit ale, in offa a little known world called Alendar." Cami smiles slightly.."Retired..On Coruscant..he's from Corellia originally..My father is the ultimate business man..He goes where the money is..Even if it means to Coruscant..Don't worry..he can take care of himself.." Rell returns to the bar, most of the rest of the establishment seeming to be taken care of at the moment; she pauses near the cluster of humans, and puts in, "We've got fresh bread this mornin', will any o' ye be wantin' some?" Cami glances at Rell and smiles, nodding.."That would do me I think..I'll take some miss..Thanks." "Aye," says the waitress, ambling off again towards the back of the bar, and its miniscule kitchen. "Back in a moment." Kendra swirls the ale slightly in the mug, thanking the bartender before turning to Rell, "Sounds good, I'll have some too." Howie frowns a bit, "Hmm... Coruscant is very dangerous Miss Garrison, very dangerous. Sometimes, the Empire do some sweeps of the area and pull people off to do some checking. If they make a connection between you and your father, I don't know what would happen. I think you father will be safer away from Coruscant or any Imp held worlds." Cami grumbles slightly as her comlink goes off and pulls it out of her pocket..putting it to her ear..She listens a momment and then frowns..speaking quietly back into it.."Whatever..never mind.." Howie shakes his head at Rell, "No thanks Miss, I'll pass for now." Howie asks Cami, "Anything wrong?" Noting the answers of Kendra and Howie as she goes, the young woman is back in a few moments, bringing a small basket of slides of wastril bread within it. "Here ye go," she says to the women, setting the basket on the bar before them. She turns to Lerren, and adds to him, "Gimme a mug ol' that sunfruit ale, will ye?" The bartender complies, as the young woman sinks tiredly down onto a stool, taking a break. Cami frowns darkly at her comlink, and stuffs it back into her pocket..mumbling.."Men!"..and turns, facing the bar, a frown on her face. Cami glances briefly at the girl and smiles, nodding.."Thanks for the bread miss.." Howie grins a little and turns his attention to his Corellian Whiskey, "Well, I can leave if you don't like my company." "Welcome," says the waitress, settling down with her own mug. She doesn't seem to catch the mumble of 'Men', as she leans tiredly forward; the bartender, if he hears Cami's mutter, gives absolutely no sign of it. Evidently, like many of his breed, the man's got a helluva sabacc face. Cami starts slightly and glances up at Howie.."Oh..not you..I'm sorry.."..and frowns, looking down at her coffee mug..an embarrassed flush starting on her cheeks. Kendra grins across to the waitress, "Thank you, it smells wonderful." she says, a quick bite confirming it. Cami picks at her bread, taking a small piece..putting it in her mouth..chewing thoughtfully, her brows furrowed into a frown and sighs..running a hand through her hair. Rell flashes a brief wan smile in Kendra's direction, as Lerren turns to the latter woman and says, deadpan, "The catering unit's working, for once." But he looks pleased. Howie grins and decides not probe any deeper, he takes another sip of his whiskey. Cami glances up briefly and looks about, as if expecting someone to arrive and frowns slightly..shrugging to herself, taking a long sip of her caf. Howie watches Cami and sees her looking around, he instinctively moves his right hand to his blaster, also checking the area out. Kendra turns to Cami and asks curiously, "Heard you mentioning cargo, you Captain of one of those ships up there?" Her hand gestures towards the docking dome. The bar remains pretty much quiet. The big ursoid by the door squints as alertly as a nearsighted ursoid can at everything within his range, though his muzzle twitches frequently, suggesting the creature's checking things out more with smell than with sight. A few patrons are busily guzzling down their beverages; one limp-looking Rodian has passed out at his table. Cami notices Howie's reaction and blushes slightly..leaning forward to say something quietly to him.."Just waiting for my crew to show up..I don't think he's showing though.."..and frowns slightly, taking a bite of her bread. Howie relaxes his hand and nods without replying. He puts his hands to the whiskey again. Thraknor comes through the double swinging doors and enters the bar from the floor outside. Thraknor has arrived. Thraknor strolls in and walks up to the bar. Cami glances at Kendra at her comment and smiles slightly..nodding.."The Pulsar Skate..I haul cargo where needed.." Cami glances towards the door again and blushes when she sees Thraknor..turning back towards Kendra. The bar appears to be occupied at the moment, with three humans talking quietly, and a fourth, Rell, sipping at a mug of something; the bartender whistles to himself, scooping random credits off the bar top and ferrying them over into his register. Howie looks at the door way aswell and sees a new arrival, he leans over to Cami and asks, "Part of your crew or the unknown harrassers?" Kendra grins, "Ah, I'm navigator on the Nudj, one of the other freighters up there." Thraknor sighs at the full bar and heads to a table. Cami smiles at Kendra and chuckles.."Oh..aye..Kris is a friend of mine..heard he hired a crew.."..and glances at Howie and smiles slightly.."Crew.." The quiet waitress, Rell, finishes off her mug of sunfruit ale, and passes it back to Lerren with a murmured, "Thank ye." With that, she gets wearily up, and makes her way towards the unconscious Rodian, to make sure the sentient's still actually breathing; once at his table, she shakes him, murmuring, "Okay, ye greenie, let's be movin' along now, we're not a hotel." The being stirs and mumbles blearily in his own language. Thraknor sits at a table in the back. Howie nods slightly and takes another sip of the Corellian Whiskey. Cami holds out a hand to Kendra. "Cami Garrison..Pleasure." Kendra glances at Thraknor as he comes in, and turns back toward the bar, "Kendra Sa'argreen, glad to meet you." she says, shaking Cami's hand As the Rodian fails to move, Rell crinkles her nose and sighs, but decides not to press the issue; it's probably safer for the drunken being to stay in here than otherwise, anyway. With that, the waitress turns to scan the place; Thraknor is spotted, and Rell's brow crinkles a moment, before she smooths it out again deliberately and heads toward him. Once at his table, she says, "What'll it be, then?" Howie looks at Kendra, then back at Cami, then back at Kendra, deciding whether to introduce himself or not, he choses the former. He says with a nod to Kendra, "Peter Davidson." Thraknor says "Um a Shakla without the brandy..thank you" Thraknor You see a young man strong with work and tan from being outdoors. He is not tall and wearing nice clothes. He is wearing a white silk shirt, dark midnight blue pants, and a dark brown suede jacket. His hair is dark brown, and short. He has a slight cut above one eye, and his elbows and knuckles are quite bruised. He looks at you with eyes of midnight blue. The waitress nods neutrally, promising, "A moment." She heads off to prepare the shakla, darting into the kitchen in the back. Cami glances at Peter and quirks a brow slightly, then going back to her normal expression and turns back towards Kendra and smiles.."Form these parts Kendra?" Kendra grins back at Howie, "Nice to meet you too." She thinks a moment, "Not quite, been traveling around a lot lately running cargo." After a minute or so, Rell emerges from the kitchen with a steaming mug in her hand, heralded by the rich scent of its contents. "There ye go," she tells Thraknor, setting it down before him. Caminods and rubbs hre chin.."Any of the routes change?..Or is Corellia still the best place to trade do ya know?" Howie's comlink beeps, then a light squeal and a few chirps is heard. Howie then replies, "I'll be right there whistler." He shuts off his comlink and addresses the two ladies, "Sorry to break up the party ladies but I have some unfinished business to attend to, and Miss Garrison, I'll see if I can speed up the process, I'll be seeing you." He finishes his whiskey, then throws a few credits on the table. He stands up, look around first, then disappears into the crowd. Howie pushes open the swinging double doors and exits. Howie has left. Cami watches Peter leave with a slight smile, before turning back towards kendra. Kendra shakes her head, "Well, nothing's changed since I started at least. And Correllia is still busy and crowded." Cami nods and rubbs her chin.."i'm lookin for some Durasteel..Know a good spot to get some?" Kendra nods, "We were just at Byss and picked up a load of it for a pretty good price. Still sitting in the hold taking up space, though. Know of a place to get rid of it?" she asks hopefully. Cami glances towards thraknors table briefly..slight concern in her eyes..before clearing her expression and turning back towards kendra.. Cami hms and thinks..flipping open her pocket computer..punching a couple buttons.."When in doubt..as the computer.."..and chuckles, taking a sip of her caf, finishing it off..sliding it forward.."time for an ale please tender.." Kendra grins, taking a sip of her own ale. Lerren responds readily enough, providing a mug of ale within a few moments of being asked, while in the meantime, having dropped off Thraknor's shakla, Rell returns to her business, roaming the bar and taking requests from the sentients in the bar who're actually still conscious, but working on emulating the Rodian in the corner. Cami hms and quirks a brow slightly..reading the screen. "Says here..Etti 1V, or Bespin..I'll have to check it out.." Cami lays some credits onto the counter top and nods to Kendra.."Excse me a minute.."..and stands, walking over to Thraknor's table, sitting down across form him..speaking quietly. Thraknor nods to CAmi. Kendra nods, "I think we'll be somewhere near Etti soon..." she says making a mental note. She nods to Cami, and turns her attention to what's left of her ale. Thraknor sips his Shakla. Thraknor nods a little, with a reassuring smile. Cami smiles slightly and looks at him.."I had a slight problem last night..Can we go and discuss it?..i think you should hear this.." Thraknor nods slowly. "Sure.. Thraknor finishes his Shakla, and drop some credits onthe table. Cami downs her ale and stands, looking towards Kendra, and smiles. "Be back in a bit." Thraknor stands up to leave. Cami turns and heads for the door..waving to the tender and Rell. "Keep my seat warm..I'll be back.."..and smiles, heading out the door as they swish open. Thraknor nods slightly to Kendra and heads for the door. Kendra nods, giving a half wave as the two leave.. Lerren casts back an absentminded nod of his own; the girl, Rell, looking a bit surprised to be waved to, inclines her head dubiously as the two depart. Cami pushes open the swinging double doors and exits. Cami has left. Thraknor pushes open the swinging double doors and exits. Thraknor has left. [And after a time, when Kendra Sa'argreen had left the bar as well....] Morgan comes through the double swinging doors and enters the bar from the floor outside. Morgan has arrived. Morgan storms in, looking none-too-pleased. "No time for worship and adulation now, my goddess. Coffee. In tremendous amounts." Morgan sits down at Table 6. Cami comes through the double swinging doors and enters the bar from the floor outside. Cami has arrived. Morgan has just seated himself in the bar, and looks a mite calmer. Just a mite. Cami glowers stil as she walks in and ignores Morgan..other then shooting him a glance..and moves towards the bar..sitting back down in her seat.."An Ale and a shot of brandy tender!" Morgan says "I don't get it. If you hate me so much, why follow me in here? Masochist." Cami looks annoyed as her comlink goes off and listens to it..and grumbles a reply.. Both Rellawy and Lerren blink at the returned Cami... and at the man who occupies Table 6. The bartender moves to produce the woman's order, while the waitress, her expression warily neutral, moves off to get the coffee. Cami glowers and throws some credits onto the bar and faces Morgan.."If you want another punch..on the opposite side..go right ahead and continue pal!..Otherwise..don't even look my way!" Morgan indeed doesn't look her way, but he makes some interesting shapes and sounds with his tongue. Cami starts as her comlink goes off again and puts it to her ear and listens..frowning darkly and almost yells a reply into it.."Whatever!" Cami glares at Morgan and picks up her ale..moving to the far end of the bar..sliding into the stool, her hand balled into a fist.. Morgan He is an average man of some indefinite age in the late twenties; just over six feet tall without those boots. His sun-streaked brown hair is short, though far from regulation. His liquid azure eyes shine like the Devil's, when not hidden behind a pair of dark sunglasses framed with silver wire. His skin is smooth, lightly tanned and peeling. His hands are big, strong, and capable. He wears a pair of drab khaki trousers tucked into military boots, secured at the waist by a utility belt supporting a number of tools, a large knife, a comlink, and a blaster pistol. Hanging untucked over the belt is a worn and faded shirt the tone of Mississippi mud, buttoned in cheap gold-colored plastic and spotted with fuel. The sleeves are rolled to the elbow, and underneath is a long-sleeved white shirt. Coffee arrives on the scene at Table 6, set down without a word from the waitress, who then moves off on her business. Morgan says "You're beautiful, doll. One in two." Morgan sips his coffee contentedly. Cami mumbles under her breath.."I hope she put strictnine in that coffee!"..and takes a long drink of her ale..glaring at the pictures on the wall behind the bar. Setting her face in a decidedly neutral expression, Rellawy ducks into the kitchen again, emerging with a couple more small baskets of the wastril bread. One is deposited at Table 6, and the other carried off to the Rodian in the back, who's _finally_ stirring and mumbling plaintively under his breath. He settles down again with a burble as something to munch is set before him, with Rell's mutter of, "Eat this, to put somethin' besides ale in yer belly." Morgan chews on his bread, with a nod of thanks. Cami sighs and runs a hand through her hair, and pulls out her pocket computer, and flips it open..punching a couple buttons..and frowning slightly as she reads. Morgan says "Oh, come on. A night with me won't be /that/ expensive. I'm worth every penny, honey." Cami glances up at his comment and smirks..rolling her eyes, going back to her computer..laughing.."Whatever /friend/.." Cami mumbles to no one in particular and chuckles.."He's delusional as well..Fun..." Morgan finishes his coffee and bread, satisfied. "Lovely meal, thank you. I hope to womanize ... I mean, er, patronize your establishment again soon." Cami sighs slightly in relief at his parting words..not lifting her eyes from the small computer screen. Morgan leaves his bill in neat, orderly stacks this time. Morgan stands and leaves Table 6. The bartender keeps a decidedly straight face but calls over to Table Six, "We'll keep that in mind." The waitress, returned to cleaning off an unoccupied table by the firepit, just glances at Morgan and nods, neutrally. Cami's eyes flicker slightly, and she turns, briefly glancing at him.."I'll wait anxiously for your return..I'm sure.." Morgan makes a face in the reflection of Cami's little computer. Morgan pushes open the swinging double doors and exits. Morgan has left. Cami grumbles slightly at his departing back and sighs..visibly relieved at his leaving..her fist unballing..and leans back into the stool. Fresh bread, borne by the young waitress, makes its way up to the bar, as the girl slides onto a nearby stool and starts nibbling at a piece of the stuff. "Less loud this time, that 'un," she observes lowly, to the other woman. Cami sighs and rolls her eyes..smiling slightly.."Punched him in the jaw outside..the little bastard kissed me!" The waitress's blue-green eyes blink a bit, then she smirks briefly, swallowing bread. "Good for you, then," she murmurs. Cami chuckles and sighs..shaking her head..'Should've shot the little sob..but i didn't want to waste the ammo on him..Oh well.."..and shrugs, taking a sip of ale.."The name's Cami by the way.."..and holds out a hand towards the girl. For a fraction of an instant, the honey-haired waitress looks vaguely alarmed at the notion of shots being fired just outside the Deck, but she covers it quickly, instead putting out her own lean hand to shake the one offered. "Rell," she answers, the word rolling out of her in her brogue. Cami smiles and nods..shaking her head.."Pleasure to meet ya Rell." That elicits a slightly wider smile from the tired-looking young woman, who murmurs a pleasantry in response before reaching for another slice of the bread. Cami sighs and leans back, glancing about.."I guess I should go see my crew man..But he mightily ticked me off outside..not coming to my aid at all.." Rell's brow crinkles a bit, but all she says is, "Thraknor?", her tone slightly inquisitive, as if to simply confirm who the other woman means. Cami glances and nods, as she looks up.."Aye..he's my crew..But..he just stood there..while the fool kissed me..and didn't even try to stop..because, I had said I don't want him into fights..but he should know the difference!" With a sort of 'well, 'tis no business o' mine' expression, Rell simply nods, listening nevertheless, to be polite. She does look vaguely puzzled after a moment, though, and she murmurs, "I hope I didnae put him off from helpin' ye." Her tone takes on a bit of dismay. Cami glances up with a start..and smiles, shaking her head and sighs.."if anyone did..it was me..I shouldn't have been so harsh with him.." "He tried t' help me, and I put him off," says Rell quietly. Cami glances at Rell and smiles a bit and shrugs slightly.."I just don't like employees to getting into fights..But helping someone is another matter..I'll have to speak with him about it..and other things as well.."..and sighs, glancing down at her mug. Looking slightly uneasy, Rell simply nods, and glances about the bar to verify whether anybody happens to be waving for her attention. "I'm sure it'll be workin' itself through...." Cami stands and yawns slightly and shrugs.."I just don't understand men half of the time I guess..Oh well..yer right I suppose.." "That'll be makin' two of us," says the young waitress, half-smiling.
