#34 - Temporary Hotel at Smoke's

[inthecenterfold]

I really didn't believe it yesterday which is why I waited but... looks like my bar is safe from this "can't get in your house" effect. Lucky me~

But lucky for you guys too! Because I've got at least four good beds and a few couches too - long enough for some people to sleep in anyway. For the really desperate there's some cushy chairs as well.

So how 'bout it? Anybody sick of camping out?

[He's grinning just like that] Awesome - glad to hear it. That was just off my cuff anyway.

[He takes note of her 'attire'] Well... unless Kazahana knows what you look like, I doubt it was what you look like so much as ... well friendships between girls and guys... lots of people don't believe that it's just friendship, you know?

I believe you of course, but that's probably why Kazahana flipped. She probably didn't believe you're just friends.

I had an idea to just lend Kiba the game and have him invite Kazahana while I slip away unnoticed. I don't know if that would work, but I would like to keep my friends regardless of gender.

One of the last things I need is another terrible rumor floating around. First that picture taken of me, and then this alleged "centerfold"...

Hmmm... [Smoke thinks for a bit]

I don't think it's about the game. If you just tell Kazahana you didn't mean anything by it and he's just a friend - you never know - you might get another friend out of it when she calms down.

Yes, I could do that. [...Even if the thought of approaching Kazahana scared the shit out of her.]

I really appreciate this, Smoke. I don't usually sit down and vent, but this one was the first time I felt especially awkward. [Locket sigh, giving the glass in her hand a shake, the ice clinking around.]

Okay... I'll finish this as quick as I can, then get to dusting. I'm sure you get an earful of all sorts of stories like this, huh?

Re: Quicklog!

Well good luck regardless. And no, people don't talk to me like this -- uh, venting - as often as you think. But you're welcome to come back any time, Locket.

Even if you're not dusting - alright? [A well-meaning wink in her direction before he starts replacing the bottles he took down to make her drink]
