Closed go Beni-Enma
...
Okay, maybe that isn't new either. Regardless, Felix has taken it upon himself to hunt down this fool, so here he is. Besides, it is part of being responsible and that. As he's interrogating people (rudely) and getting some dubious leads, that is when he runs into Beni-Enma.
Or rather, ]
What the—watch where you're going!
[ Not exactly the nicest opener, but Felix isn't feeling all that nice right 'bout now...even if he's yelling at a person? Person-sparrow?? ]
no subject
Chi—rp!
[ But her instincts kick in, and she quickly steadies herself, with Felix's sharp scolding striking at her ears as soon as her own feet steady. ]
I'm sorry, sir, cheep! I was being too hasty...!
no subject
Hmph. Right about that.
What were you even trying to do? Chase someone down?
[ Normally, he'd not bother, but he is in the midst of doing so himself, and so that is his first presumption. ]
no subject
That's right. Chirp, I heard that one of the restaurants around here was hit by that lying scoundrel, so I was trying to see if I could catch one of the wait staff to ask some questions. It seems that they're no longer on lunch break, though...
[ Back into the land of the frying pans, in other words. ]
no subject
Tch, naturally. Well, since we're both looking for that fool, we should work together to hunt him down. Maybe try another restaurant, or someone being serviced at one of them.
Doubtless there were 'customers' who witnessed that daring cowardice that man pulled.
[ And it is a start, he supposes. He hates having to question people but it is the best to get a lead so the smack down can be rightfully executed, so to speak. ]
no subject
I agree.
[ And for every partnership, temporary as it may be, there's always something that should come first. The sparrow oni bows courteously once more, as much of a rush as she was in earlier. ]
My name is Beni-Enma, sir.
[ Exactly like the god supposedly in charge of this place. ]
no subject
Right. I'm Felix Hugo Fraldarius—been here for more than a couple of months by now.
Let's start with here. You take one end of this restaurant, and I will take the other.
[ He may as well take lead on this as he is the one who has suggested their next plan of action, together. Technically, he is in a position of leadership, and though he vastly prefers to lone wolf it, he knows how to work in teams, perhaps slightly better than he did at the academy now.
Anyway, with that brusque introduction and the proposed action delivered straightforwardly, Felix moves on to take to the right side of the restaurant—he considers while snappishly interrogating some of the customers that it is entirely possible they may get another chance at the wait staff. The people here seem to give variations in answers, with some having seen the haggard-looking man, some having not, been too far interested in their drink or food, or...pretending not to know anything but do, even if the information isn't of any worth. In the end, when he's done, he turns to see if Beni-Enma has finished so that they can share what they've learned. ]
Closed to Crow Armbrust
Why? Reasoning is simple. Less opportunity to be forced to socialize with some imbeciles he'd rather not. Though, it doesn't mean that he passes such places, or steps in when some other minor Shuten clan member drags him in for some reason. Or perhaps he is on the peripheral of such establishments when someone decides to punch or hit him in the face.
Whatever the case, a fight is happening, and he is pissed because somehow he got dragged into a bar fight even though he wasn't standing inside. He catches sight of someone with stark light-colored hair also embroiled in the midst of it, and almost thinks it's Dante for a split second, but Crow's features are distinct enough to clear up the difference. ]
Tch. Don't tell me you started this nonsense?
[ Not that Felix necessarily expects for him to have done so. He looks less...like he went into a foolish drunken rage than some of these lot. ]
no subject
it's fun to watch from a distance, that's for sure. people fighting over anything and everything. but it's less fun when you're a little to close to the action and end up pulled into the chaos. like this time. luckily it wasn't hard to spot when things were going south and get himself out of the way, but now crow's perched in one corner of the bar watching a bunch of people essentially slap fight each other for fun.
and he can't even get past them to reach the door.
so when he's accused of starting the whole thing, he gives the accuser a flat look over the rim of his drink. ]
I just came here for a drink and to listen to gossip, man. Don't start a smear campaign.
no subject
Anyway, he scoffs at the answer regardless. ]
Hmph. I suppose your answer is good enough.
Though, I doubt you're going to get to listen to any good 'gossip' with all of this foolishness going on.
[ As he says this, some drunkard comes running over to them, and takes a swing, which forces Felix to duck and then deck the man in turn, causing him to fall backward into another rowdy fool. He can't wait until this nonsense settles down. He has better things to do. ]
no subject
[ he just watches as Felix casually dodges an angry drunk like it’s no big deal, still sat casually at his seat with his drink. sure, the chaos is moving ever closer but until he has to get up and start dodging or defending himself, he moves for no one.
can’t a guy just have a nice drink around here? grumble, grumble, etc. ]
It’ll die down eventually. Either when they all get kicked out, or pass out, whichever comes first.
no subject
[ Another disgruntled comment made with no real, true expectations that such a thing would come to pass. Well, maybe one head might roll. This is hell, after all, and there are oni around who are known to get pretty goddessdamned rowdy.
Around this time, some other fighting drunkard gets knocked over their way, faceplanting at the ground nearby them.
Yep, probably going to be awhile. ]
Maybe some of them will pass out after beating up on one another for so long. Whoever owns this bar doesn't seem all that interested in kicking anyone out. Or maybe they're just hiding like some kind of coward.
