Number One Perk of working a club: free drinks at the bar.

Lucky for him it took a lot for him to get wasted. Not so lucky for the club owner. As his break rolled around, Hak ambled away from his post by the door and popped his neck in a bid to rid it of stiffness. Hak supposed he couldn't complain: he did like that most of the time he got paid for nothing more than standing around, and when there was action, it was usually over pretty quick.

Even luckier tonight, there was an empty stool with a cold one already waiting. Hak slid into it, picked up the second drink Kuranosuke had bought, and started downing it without a second thought.

[kurarinn]

Kenya must have bumped into someone he knew, because he was taking his sweet time. Some idiot decided to help himself to his beer. Maybe that was just as well, since it would lose its fizz sitting there, but Kuranosuke was somewhat annoyed anyway. What kind of person just walked up to a drink and assume it was theirs for the taking?

"You must've been thirsty," he said dryly, glancing at the guy from the corner of his eyes.

[raijyuu]

"Ahhh, was this yours?" Hak asked, looking rather unconcerned in Kuranosuke's direction. Logically, of course, he'd known the drink belonged to someone. He simply didn't care. What were they going to do, call security? They'd be in for a sorry surprise. Besides, it wasn't like any harm was done; this was easily fixed. Hak raised his hand and-- just slightly-- his voice, to get the bartender's attention.

"Hey, Pervert, get this guy another one of these... and make my next one something much harder," He added with a dark grin.

[kurarinn]

The guy didn't seem all too surprised he was drinking someone else's beer. Why he didn't just wave 'Pervert' over to bring him a fresh one in the first place was a mystery. Kuranosuke eyed that dark grin with a cool look, not really annoyed anymore but discerning. He's seen this guy before, in the club. He worked security here, though apparently not at the moment.

"Slow night?" It was ironically said, given how crowded the place was then.

[raijyuu]

Hak snorted and swiveled the stool partway around in Kuranosuke's direction. He had no objection to chatting up the guy, and maybe was even interested. Now that he'd gotten a good look, he remembered the man. Infrequent patron, usually accompanied by a much more energetic guy, didn't talk to people much. Hak wondered why that was.

"Well... depends on how you want to define slow. Where'd your buddy go? You get separated?"

[kurarinn]

If Kuranosuke was surprised that the guy remembered he'd come in with Kenya, he didn't show it. Maybe the guy wasn't just some dumb muscle after all. He turned to face him, giving him a more thorough once-over.

"He probably bumped into someone. He comes here a lot more than I do," he answered.

[raijyuu]

So he had the guy's attention. Turning the body towards anything showed openness and interest.

"Really? I never would have guessed," he snarked.

[kurarinn]

"How observant of you," he said dryly. Kuranosuke wasn't going to give an argument there. Maybe it was pretty obvious that he wasn't the sort of person who usually poked around establishments like this on a weekend night.

The guy was brash and sarcastic, qualities that most people probably found offensive. At least Kuranosuke wasn't most people.

[raijyuu]

"There are a lot of different types that come to clubs," Hak continued, needing little excuse to continue talking. He lifted one eyebrow. "But they usually don't come here to be alone."

Which made the man's sitting at the bar a bit of a puzzle. Maybe he was just having a drink for now, but his demeanor wasn't exactly inviting. He had to know this. And while Hak did remember he was here with a friend, a club was surely a horrible place to spend quality time with just the one you came with.

"So: anything in particular you're looking for?"

[kurarinn]

Was this guy trying to pick him up? Kuranosuke wasn't exactly the most inviting sort of person, but this kind of thing did happen on occasion. He dressed well, and Kenya would say he had a good face. Not that Kuranosuke really took much of that into account.

"Like what?" he asked, with a quirk of his brow. Was he offering?
