Davey nodded and watched the man walk off. He went back to his absentminded drumming on the counter. Maybe he should have asked when he'd be taken to meet the Prince.
He realized it didn't really matter, he was going to have to do it sooner than later. And why not tonight?

Bren decided to wander down anyway. He was a tad peckish. He had already tucked Torin in for his nap. He walked down the side stairs that led to the balcony, keeping his eyes on the crowd. There was something here that had his nerves racing, but he could place what.
Oh...the boy...the kid he took the cd from. He was sitting off in a corner. He smirked slightly to himself, then made way to the bar. He could sense new kindred here, but not one he had met yet. No matter, Adam would bring the whelp along at some point. He looked at Bently and slamed his hand on the bar, startling the older man. "Hey, you! Get me a lager of your best guiness!"

Davey looked over at the slam on the bar. Whatever, he thought as he went back to his tapping on the bar.
He hated this waiting, but he'd do it. He belatedly thought that he should have picked a place that was more his taste for the night instead of this place. But that couldn't be changed now, so he moved on with his thoughts.

Bently eyed the seemingly younger man, then grinned. "Get it yerself, whelp. I'm busy with real customers...not some slacker such as ye coming here orderin' me about like you own the joint."
"Uh...Bently, ol' boy...I do. Not for long, suredly, but for now I do. I don't see your name on the deed yet, old man," Bren smiled and moved bhind the bar, gettign is drink. He glanced at Davey, then put a second drink before him. "Drink your sorrows, or drown them and forget. Either way, lose the sour face."

At the statement, the first thing that came to mind was to give him the finger. Or comment on the lack of good music. Both options, he decided wasn't the best with an unknown. "Thanks," he borthered to mumble.
He didn't drink, he'd had enough of not remember or seeing through a haze. So he settled for something else. He dug into his pocket and came out with an MP3 player. Settling the headphones in his ears, he hit play and turned it up all the way. Too bad, the bass from the club still bled through.

Bren eyed the boy, then sighed. He took the drink back and downed in in one go...he was definately showing his roots. He tossed the glass aside as if it was nothing, catching Bently out the corner of his eye frantically grasping the glass and glaring at him. He wiped his mouth, pulled his own drink over and leaned on the bar. He stared at Davey, then reached forward and pulled the earpiece out of his left ear. "You'll go deaf you listen to it that loud. Besides, the music here isn't so bad. I rather like Flogging Molly."
He had to admit, the kid might hit him eventually, but it was fun to tease the locals...and he was curious to why Adam had been speaking to him earlier.

He didn't have an answer, as he was currently listening to Dropkick Murphys. He looked back up, "Yes well going deaf isn't really something that I'm concerned with."
Especially given his love of going to concerts. He half wondered if vampires could even go deaf. He at least turned it off but didn't remove the headphones, before jamming his hands in his pocket.

Bren shrugged, then stood to lean on the bar on his hands. He looked out atthe dance floor, and could see Adam talking to a few others. He looked back at the kid. "I'm curious what my mate, Adam, talked to you about. Care to spill?"

Well, he thought, he now had a name to go with the face. He pondered if he should say or not. Then again, the other man didn't tell him not to.
"I'm suppose to be invovled in some mission or something. And meet the Prince," he stated passively.

"The prince? Really?" Bren laughed. "Of England?"
He sighed, took a drink from his guinnes, then leaned on the bar. "Mission sounds good...there anything in it? Money...chicks...fame?"

Davey opened his mouth, then closed it. "I was hoping it was going to be the Prince of Space, the Future and watermelons myself," he said after a short pause.
"Money's overrated, fame's boring, and chicks only want one of those two things," he concluded. "It doesn't really matter, in the end it's just something to pass the time." He took the chance to drag his headphones back into his pockets since they were have a conversation now.

Bren nodded, then took another drink. He watched the dancers a moment, then glanced at the front door. He could see Moriko heading through to make her way back upsatirs. He sighed and ducked slightly behind the bar. "Well...that prince is currently taking holiday. Will the prince of a city do?"
He peeked over the bar, making sure his right hand woman was upstairs. He looked at Davey, "You know...sometimes women want a little more than money and fame. Some times they just need..."
Bently cut him off, "Now don't be filling the youth's head with garbage. Don't need him ending up like you."
The elderly man sighed, and began cleaning a glass. "Cor! Last thing anyone be needing is someone the likes of you...one's enough."

Davey chuckled, amused both by the other one's ducking and the bar tender's words.
"I suppose if the one I want is all booked up, the other will do," he said when his laughter subsided. He didn't mention that he was pretty sure what the other was going to say. But he couldn't tell for sure.

"Ah...you know he's upstairs?" Bren peered at the boy, finally standing again. "He lives up there. Only a select few really getto meet with him, talk with him, you know...buddies. I mean, the only other time anyone sees him is when he's needing people to do his work for him."
He glanced at Bently, who'd moved on down the bar to take a few orders. He looked back and grinned. "Course, I don' know why you'd be wanting to talk to him...little thing like you. Oh...right...the mission. What is this mission?"

He almost snorted at the little thing comment. But for now, Davey would just see what he meant by it exactly.
"I see. I didn't know that, all I was told was I would meet him later. As far as the mission, that's all I know," he stated. "I didn't know I wanted to talk to him. I was informed I would be meeting him, that's it."
