Looking for some people to work at a bar ASAP. If you've seen Bahamut's Fury, well, you can probably figure out it's not in the best shape. It'll take some work, but if you're willing to put in the time and effort, we can arrange something.

Looking for:

Bartenders
Bouncers
Maintenance
Cleaning

Some of these might need to double for a while. Please know how to count and exchange credits.

Shoot me a text if you'd rather speak privately.

I've got a few. Take your pick. Give me some of your details and contact info so I know how best to keep in touch with you. I don't need much, just the essentials.

[And off they go, just about five coordinates that he pick from, along with contact names and his own name as reference.

And if James knows anything about the Company?

He'll probably recognize the name Nyx Ulric... probably. Hero status.]

[lefthandfree]

[He’d left the Company some years ago, but he hasn’t fallen out of keeping up with things since having converted to a killjoy. The name rings a bell, and James raises his brow when he makes the connection.

He sends along his basic info, James Barnes and details to his private line, before replying more freely in a private text:]

James here. Don’t tell me you’re retiring to run a bar. It’d be a real damn shame to lose someone like you when the Company’s already so short on level-headedness.

[servitor]

I'm taking that as a compliment. No, I'm not leaving. Between Company missions I'll be running the Fury. I can't let it fall apart, not when the old man did so much for me.

It wouldn't be right.

[He'd heard some of James, though the details had been vague at best as to his departure. It wasn't Nyx's job to ask why anyone would leave, nor was it in his nature to pry about something that, he figured, was sensitive.

Though he'd be lying if he said he wasn't curious about it.]

[lefthandfree]

Definitely a compliment, pal. When I was small, I wanted to become someone like you one day. Universe had other plans though.

[And when he thinks about it now, he doesn’t know if he’s strong enough to have stayed true with all the internal backlash and conflicts do-gooding does at times within the Company. Maybe if he’d been on a crew alongside Ulfric, knowing he wasn’t fighting alone. Yeah, that’d have been great, wouldn’t it have? But it’s another life, one James doesn’t know, and so he’s only left with the thought of possibility and the knowledge of his own shortcomings.]

For whatever it’s worth, if the Fury means that much to you, I ain’t planning on letting it die out either. There’s something good about people having hope, whatever they might be going through. And a place like yours is the perfect way to remind others that the end is never the end unless we let it be.

[servitor]

The universe likes to throw out a few tests sometimes. I just tend to fight back more often than not.

[Which is exactly why he has as long of a list of infractions as he does. He's too stubborn, too self-assured, to let anything try to break him down. It's all he's got left, anyway.

He would've been there through thick and thin, had it come down to it.]

It's always about the future. If keep a bar open means having a future, then it means keeping a bar open.
