[Rei is working the late late shift at a seedy diner all by herself. And by seedy diner, I mean the dining room. That somehow employs people for the duration of the event but really isn't that much different, except all gritty and film noir-y.

SHUT UP IT WORKS SOMEHOW.

She'll be closing up in an hour or so, and in the meantime, she's wiping things down and getting ready. Her inner monologue is pretty quiet for the moment, focused on the mundane tasks of work.]



[ooc: Rei's monologue will appear in italics following her normal speech. But um you probably shouldn't expect her to be thinking much more than she actually says most of the time. :||||]

An hour.

But he'll stay as long as he likes.

[He takes a sip of the coffee]

Isn't that a bit late for such a young woman?

He could trust her to say exactly what she had to say and no more; although he strongly suspected that she was thinking less than charitable things. Perhaps it was that lack of fear that made her so interesting. He'd been ear by almost everyone since he'd first learned to make people fear him.

It is necessary.

He knows about things that are necessary.

Is it now? but surely some of the clientele are less than upstanding.

[She nods.]

Like him. But it's okay.

How has business been lately, Rei?

He can see her judgement in her eyes, but chooses to ignore it.

Fine.

The same as always.

Is that so, I've heard awful rumors about businessmen being harassed in these parts.

And some of them he wasn't even responsible for.

Yes. Some of them.

But not me. Not yet.

I'd hate to think of something happening to this place, I'm fond of it.

For once, I don't even mean it as a threat, although she might take it that way.

I take him at face value. I have no reason not to.

[She nods and moves to wipe more stuff off.]
