 FERRIS RANDALL
Ferris shrugged his shoulders when Bela knocked down his question. To him, if it was personal all she had to say was 'that's too personal'. However, Ferris didn't think it was personal at all. He was just trying to get some information, as well as maintain a moderate conversation. It wasn't like he was asking her weight or anything.
He took another sip on his drink, loving the way the near straight alcohol felt crawling down his throat.
He watched her look around, opening his mouth again to say something. He wasn't expecting her to answer, so her vague response was better than nothing. It didn't make much sense though, she answered his question with his question. He had asked why she would want to work in a town so small, and she told him it was because it was small. That was going in circles. He frowned once more taking another sip of his drink. The girl was pretty, but he wasn't sure if she was that smart.
He looked at her again, taking her all in. She wasn't in her prime, well maybe she was, but as far as acting goes, she was just a couple years too old to really come out on the scene. Her height, weight, and looks were perfect for the silver screen, but age was another question. She would have done better at twenty. She was too old to be an it-girl, and there was no such thing as an it-woman... unless you were Meryl Streep. Bela would make a nice important extra, or maybe a female love interest with a couple lines. She was pretty, but too old to wear out for all her star quality. If it was a another time, in early film, she would have been a favorite.
He smirked at her, but more at his own thoughts. That must be why she didn't want to work in the city, with all the young soon to be successful girls, she might fall flat. She was stunning for her age though, maybe she could make it with the right amount of work. The man grumbled, taking another sip of his drink. "So, all the girls who work here...it's just you?" he asked, looking around for the familiar red head. Where was she?
"I mean, you're sure to keep a healthy amount of business flowing here, but you don't have competition?" he asked, trying to cover his blatantly obvious questions with flirting. "You know... healthy competition."

 x████████x x████████x Or... not. This guy was insistent, he wasn't taking no for an answer. "If you are requesting for someone else, then I assure you, the only competition here, is Leroy over there." Bela pointed at Keith, her face looking rather irritated at his constant questioning if there were any more people. It was insulting, like he was subtly calling her inadequate to please his refined tastes or something! "And I don't really think you want what he's giving, unless...?" Bela asked in a whisper, leaning toward him with a smirk.
"If you wish to see some more women, then hang around. I'm sure there's may be another woman that could suit your tastes; young and endowed, she is. She comes around every other night, it's actually rather irritating." Bela said impatiently, "Much like your pestering questions." she sniped off, showing him exactly how she felt of his unprecedented interrogation. She was actually speaking of Integra, not that he'd know.
"If your looking for a specific type, then I recommend you look in the yellow pages."
Her voice was laced with as much ice as she could muster. Sure, it was a bit out of line, but this man was not even being subtle about it. And if he was trying, he was failing horribly. Bela took a dainty sip of her drink, awaiting some kind of retort from the man's part. Already trying to work her way around whatever he could say.
"Oh, wait, let me answer your next question. My name is Joy, by the way. Joy Bennett." Bela lied sarcastically, though her irritated mood would make her tone sound rather justifiable. He wouldn't and couldn't be able to tell what her real name was, so what better than to lie about her name? And using the name 'Joy,' was just so ironically humorous, since it contrasted her current mood so well. x████████xBELA JAMES x████████x THE MISGUIDED HEART

"Thats not what im saying though. Birthday or not, she shouldnt be here." Vlad said to Hansel as they came into the Grindhouse.
"Und she ist mein niece und i vill vatch her." Hans said with a roll of his eyes. "She ist 18 now und she can drink if she vants. I vould razter have it be in mein presence."
"Oh okay. So when she gets shitfaced and started hitting on people are you going to keep assholes like me from taking her-" Vlad started.
Una slipped by both Vlad and Hans, breifly showing Pip her new ID, in her cute Gothic school girl uniform. It had made Vlad stopped in his tracks and swallow hard as he watched Una run up to the bar and take a seat with a smile.
"Sweet.. innocent..." Vlad said his eyes getting that predatory look as they trailed along Una's young curves. ".. tight.. ******** that." Jan laughed as he came in behind them and slapped Vlad on the back, derailing the taller males train of naughty thoughts. "If anyones getting into those cotton panties tonight its me." Jan smiled as he stretched and slipped his hands into his pockets. He let out a whistle and looked over to Pip. "Who the ******** ripped your heart out man?" Jan said, knowing Pip long enough that he didnt need to ask to know what the Frenchmans mood was.
"Oh i can take a wild guess." Vlad said as he looked over to Bela and Keith. Oh so the boy was out of the hospital and seclusion. Interesting.
"Like Una is going to touch you with a ten foot poll." Dante said to Jan, one of the few times he wasnt in drag this evening. Hanging on his arm was his adopted sister Integra.
"You boys wont be touching her if i have anything to say about it." Integra added before she looked to Pip. "Oh sweetie.." She said as she released Dante and came to stand infront of Pip. She cupped his head in her hands and frowned lightly. "Where they being assholes again?" Integra cooed gently.
"Well if theyre going to be like that we can head back to our place." Dante added with a light sneer.
"Nein!" Una said as she got up from the bar and ran over to Hans and Vlad. "Ist mein celebration. Und i vant ein drink, und someone vill buy me ein dammned drink. Got ist?" Una said as she grabbed Vlad and her Uncles ties and tugged on them in protest.
"Alright! Fine. Get your jailbait a** over there and order a ******** drink then." Vlad retorted to her with a narrowed gaze, as he pointed to the bar.
"Gut. You are so nice Unkle Vladdie." Una smiled cheerfully, she gave Vlad a kiss on the cheek and ran back to the bar. "Valter! I vaaaaaaant.. i .. i dont know.. someztingt vith alcohol!" Una declared proudly before she took out her ID and showed it to him. Like showing off a good grade to someone.
"Well my bonnie lass that doesnt limit it. um.. hm.." Walter sighed and ran a hand through his ebony locks. while the others, all but Integra and Dante joined Una at the bar.
"Im going to obliterate her later.. im just telling you." Vlad said honestly to Hans as they sat down besides Una. Jan sat on the other side of her so she was between Vlad and Jan.. probably not the best two to be sitting besides but Hans was right by Vlad. And there were others around that would keep an eye on the young one.

"Dolly, baby, I'm not requesting anyone else. I'm quite fine with you here. However, between you and me, I have a friend I thought would be here, I guess I was wrong.. .looks like I got stood up." he shrugged and took another sip of his drink. That's all the information he would give out, he didn't want her tattling on him.
He knew she wasn't talking about his sister, seeing how she wasn't very endowed. At least not well endowed enough for it to be a defining factor...not that he had looked. Well, he had seen it in magazines. It was despicable.
"Now, maybe it's just me, but how about you flush the snark out of your voice and let's have a conversation like adults." he said, with another sip of his drink, as he watched the new group come in, "You'd think a Joy would be more joyful, but maybe I'm pestering like you say I am."
"Whatever the case, let's both relax. It would do you and I some good, I think. Don't you think so too, J?" he said, putting emphasis on his new nickname for the blonde. The girl had spunk, moxie, and that was endearing on top of her looks. If she had been ugly, he didn't know if he would be able to stand her.
"My name's Ferris Randall, and to answer your next question, or simply just to get this conversation moving without speedbumps, I'm from New York, you know the big apple." he said with a smirk, handing her his card from his pocket.
Ferris Randall, Director
"See, I know you work here, now you know what I do." he laughed, "I make movies, pretty good one's if I were to toot my own horn. I'm here to scope out locations, and look for up and coming talent, just like yourself, Joy..."

Alice blinked as he slipped past her and moved over to the door. What was that about? She was just... just wondering... Well, the obvious step was to let him cool off. And Alice would probably kick herself later for this but she was... curious? "Let me rephrase that... you're pissed" said the woman after making her way to the door, standing behind him and leaning at the wall. "Why?" Did she really need a reason to ask him that? ...It was just off to see him like that.

x████████xx████████x"Speak of the devil." Bela muttered under her breath, seeing Boobs McAsstown over there trying to be all motherly. Ugh, it made Bela sick. Those motherly things were what kept Pip in his world of delusions, what made it hurt so much more later. It was rather hypocritical of her, since she herself was rather protective of Keith lately, but it just wasn't the same thing. She didn't hide ting from him, and she usually told him the facts. Hell, they even got physical, at some point. A catfight, of sorts.
Returning her gaze to Ferris after the group settled, listening to how he tried for a compromise and introduced himself. From New York, huh? She'd never been there before, but she heard there was a lot of types of different people there; different races. It sounded interesting, but the high level of crime made it rather unattractive to live there.
Oh? A director, huh? And he even carried a card around, how cute. She eyed the card for a moment, finding it to be rather... to the point. And then he mentioned a possibility for her as an actress? "I'm sorry to inform you, that I, however, don't have a card for you." Bela said, though she didn't sound sorry at all. Another name that started with J, like Jessica. Wow, how long had it been since she saw Gaston?
"If I ever decided to become an actress for you, would it help my case any if I 'tooted your horn,' instead?" Bela asked, a mischievous glint coming to her eye. Of course, however, he wasn't sarcastic or made her smile... at all. "You know, with what they say about directors nowadays..." Bela said solemnly, bringing her glass up to her lips and watching him with the corner of her eyes. x████████xBELA JAMES x████████xTHE MISGUIDED HEART

Pip had just gotten done explaining what had gone on to Integra. Though he had whispered it to her and was just now pulling away from Integra's ear. When Alice came over to ask him why he wasnt his cheery self he looked to her and then back to Integra. "Go ahead.. 'ave some fun." Pip smiled gently to her.
Integra looked to Alice and then to Pip before looking back to Alice again. "You know im glad you didnt hire me. What with those two constantly shitting on everyones parade?" Integra said not naming names, she didnt have to. She shook her head and wrapped her arms around Pips neck. She gave him a quick hug before tugging on Dante's arm and taking him with to the bar. She'd have to fill the twin in.
"I would tell you to go ask your employees.." Pip said as he resumed taking long drags on his cigarette. "But since t'ey dont care about anyone but t'emselves, t'eyll just say im 'aving a bad day." Pip said to Alice before he turned his gaze away from her. "Besides.. you dont believe in love Mademoiselle, net'ier do t'ey. And apparently no one should by t'eir logic. T'en.. you all act so concerned when one of you is 'urt or upset? T'ats not love? Compassion isnt love of some kind? T'en what do you t'ree call eet?" Pip said looking to her. "And why do you care if i am angry? You made your point clear several times over. I was just t'e fool t'at wouldnt give up. Or just make love to you, cause i wanted more." Pip ended up explaining partially what was going on. It was more of how he felt.

"Okay.. what about a Alice in-no no thats too much at once. Bloody Hell." Walter was leaning on the counter, right infront of Una. Trying to wrack his brain for a good first drink. He ran his hand through his locks once again.
"Give her something sweet where she wont taste the alcohol." Vlad said with a smile as he watched Una.
"Oh? What so she drinks so much she ends up in your lap. I think not ol boy." Walter smirked. "I know. I have an idea." Walter slapped the counter lightly and reached over to touch Una's cute little nose. "How about a Mojito?" Walter smiled to her.
"Ja!" Una smiled as she scrunched up her cute nose at the touch.
Walter then soon got to work on Una's Mojito, a Rum and Coke for Vlad, A Cosmo for Dante, A slippery n****e for Integra. A beer for Jan, and a nice Old fashioned for Hans.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ - Alice 'Madame Mia' Ladd - __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ...Oh she knew Bela and Keith where a handful, and that was an understatement. Perhaps the understatement of this year and the last. That she probably would've handled easily... She had thought then that it was just something they did or said to Pip. It certainly wouldn't have been the first time. Then Pip spoke up. ...They were back to the love topic. "What is it with you and love Pip? They can have their reason for not believing in it. I have mine. I don't have to love someone to give a damn about them" replied the woman at some point. Was he really still... "So that's what this is about..." she said after he finished. This was feeling just like their first date... that outburst on love and whatnot.

"J, you don't get cards until you're famous." he laughed, taking another swig of his drink. There was that burn, nice. After the girl got over herself, she wasn't that bad. She turned from sarcastic in a deadly annoying way, to sarcastic in the cool way. Like said before, the girl had moxie, and seemed to know how to handle herself.
"You know what Joy, I'm going to cut you in on a little dirty secret of the film industry." he said, placing an elbow on the counter and leaning in closer to her to whisper, catching her innuendo, "I'm going to tell you now that sleeping with me won't get you ahead, in reality, unless you're already famous it won't do much. I might put you in a couple roles, but if you just suck, in more ways than one, you aren't getting anywhere."
"I often suggest to actresses that instead of ******** the director, they go take acting lessons or something. That's probably going to pay off better in the long run." he sighed, "I know that probably cuts down on the amount of a** I get, but I'd rather produce a good film with good actors than get laid. Maybe that's weird of me."

"Oui. Eet is." Pip said to her before he shook his head and waved his hand. "Dont worry about eet. Even t'ough none of you 'ave given me a reason why you dont believe in love. No wait scratch t'at. Keit' i can understand." Pip said as he pointed a thumb at Keith. "'is best friend betrayed him, didnt show up when 'e needed eet most. But you and Bela, just say you dont believe in love and t'ats eet. No reason why." Pip said to Alice.
"But if your both goingt to be t'at way t'en just let me do my job and i wont say or do anyt'ing but t'at." Pip added before he sighed and smiled sadly. "I dont even care anymore. C'est la vie" Pip said. He was done with trying to have others see his point of view. And he didnt want a woman who he had to convince to even date him. So that was it. Alice wouldnt have to worry about him flirting with her anymore. Bela wouldnt have to worry about Alice. And neither would have to worry about love or anything like that.
"You want to know what eet is with me and Love? Do you really 'ave to ask t'at from a Frenchman? From someone who 'ad people, brot'ers in arms t'at would 'ave your back on t'e battlefield and off?" Pip said gently to her. "Im sick of just one night stands. I want somet'ing more t'an t'at. Love, being in a relationship is about 'aving someone who will be t'ere for you no matter what. T'rough t'ick and t'in. Someone you can count on, tell secrets to, share t'ings with t'em, t'at you cant with ot'ers." Pip added. "Someone who you cry with, laugh with, be yourself with and would do anyt'ing in t'e world to protect t'em from 'arm." Pip added. "If t'at is stupid of me to believe in.. t'at t'ere is someone out t'ere t'at one day i can do t'ose t'ings with? Take care of eachot'er, raise a family and grow old toget'er?" Pip said as he locked gazes with Alice. "T'en let me 'ave my delusion... " Pip concluded.
"Sorry Mademoiselle. I did not mean to upset you.. but you asked." He added gently.

 -Clark Rothenburger-___________________________________________________________Clark just shook his head at the though of his brother spying. No, Avien wasn't that much of a creep, he just liked to be annoying since he is the older brother with way more sexual... experience... Not that the man really wanted any sexual advice from the other. That would just be awkward. And what kind of brothers talked about their sex lives openly? Hell, this was the first time Clark ever had to think about talking about a sex life. He'd never had one before. It was weird to think that he had one now, but he actually felt kind of comfortable sitting next to Keith, hearing him talk and offer him a smoke. He's smoked before, still did a bit, never had he tried drugs though till the night before. He took the cigarette with a smile and took one drag. This was how he knew how to smoke the day before, even if it wasn't the same substance. This was just regular smoking for now. "Um... I don't know... when I woke up the TV was off..." for all he knew the game could still be locked in combat or something. There was no telling what happened to his game while he was high and tired. Oh well, his game could wait... WAIT! Did he just consider putting off a game for social interaction?! What was he thinking?!?! ____________________________________________________________

At the sound of the sudden loud noise coming from the entrance, Keith tuned his head to see just what it was. What he saw, however, didn't please him. "Oh ********. Not them." He said before slamming his head against the bar. He could deal with Walter and Pip, but he sure as hell didn't felt like dealing with the whole crew of moron and their queen Integra. He left out a growl before simply flipping his head in Clark's direction, still resting it on the counter. "So, what are you drinking Dude? Don't worry, it's on me." He told him with a faint smile. He was grateful that Clark had showed up for even more reasons now. At least he could try to ignore the group in favour of the other boy. Try being the keyword there. "So...? You ******** woke up and came directly here to see me? Ain't that nice of you" He laugh a bit, not really trying to mock Clark, but still ending up doing it anyway. He grabbed the cigarette off Clark's hand to take a drag himself before handing it back to the boy. "I didn't peg you as a smoker... I do prefer you like that, tho." Just like Conor....

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ - Alice 'Madame Mia' Ladd - __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Wasn't that a hit to the gut... Alice had been stuck on that part of not giving him a reason.Well... he was right in a way but-He didn't care? That hit harder than expected on the woman, but she wouldn't be dwelling on that too long with Pip's next words. It actually... pissed her off. To hear such a delusion, such a lie on what love was. It wasn't like that at all... not to her anyways. Which was just why she scoffed while the man spoke, and held back a laugh at that protecting bit. Alice really considered snapping right there, until he added that last bit. She had asked hadn't she? "...Have your delusion then Pip.." she said simply to the Frenchman. If he searched right, he'd probably find a lot of hurt in the woman's gaze. Well if he did before she turned away from him to leave. She hadn't taken a step yet before she spoke up again. "...I believed in it once Pip. I didn't get anything more than hell and this..." she said softly raising a hand to her eye-patch. Speaking that soft, was probably the reason no one would notice her voice drifting off. "...So I apologize if I don't share your enthusiasm to go back to that. I apologize for not viewing love like you do" she added herself, refusing to glance back at the Frenchman. He wanted honesty. He got it.

x████████xx████████xBela listened to him speak, and once he finished, she nodded in approval. As much as she liked sex, what he said was good, specifically, for his line of business. "So, you are one of the good directors." Bela nodded, showing some kind of actual respect. Unlike Keith, who was an a*****e for these kinds of things. He totally just gave her the look earlier because he wasn't man enough to admit that he liked and agreed with her speech. Speaking of, she sneaked a glance at Pip and Alice, seeing her in a tense posture, which meant that... oh well, not her problem. Yet, anyway.
"What are you talking about? You should be getting more a** because of it, instead!" Bela said with incredulity, finding what he said really hard to believe. If he did good movies and got good actors, he should get more recognition because of it. Not lose points in the sex department! "Maybe people are just stupid." Bela shook her head in disgust, because some people really were just that.
With that, she polished off her drink. But really, she wasn't feeling like drinking anymore. She was feeling a buzz, but it was manageable. She never drank to the point of getting drunk, she hated it. When she got drunk, she usually was granted the gift of the gab. And, in that state, she revealed each and every one of her secrets if coerced the right way. It was partly how Alice knew so much of Bela, but the rest she admitted of her own free will.
There was a slight commotion near them, because of the annoying ragtag group. And Bela tried to avoid looking over, but failed a few times of doing so. "Do you mind?" Bela asked, holding her hand out to him. Uncrossing her legs and making every indication of getting down off the bar top. Since she never trusted herself after drinking to get down from there, she was asking for Ferris' assistance.x████████xBELA JAMES x████████xTHE MISGUIDED HEART
