Ben noticed that the man was much more defensive of Synge than he had expected. Perhaps this really was a man who was her lover, if that was the case then he would have lots of questions for Synge...even more than he currently had.Hmm...well, I must admit that I really didn't get to to talk to her but that's the impression she gave me. So you love this girl? Is that woman someone like your girlfriend or wife? Seems like it with the way you are talking. Ben looked around at the place and seemed rather concerned about the man saying he wished to stay. He almost wanted to make it impossible for the man to stay but he also needed the funds so he came up with a clever way to mix the two together.Sticking around? Okay. But due to the current inflation rates, I have to ask 500G per night for a room or 5000G per week. It's all inclusive. That something you want to do? The man really didn't like Hikaru, perhaps he was jealous or perhaps this man was too odd for him to understand.That name's Benjamin Austerre, owner and proprietor...nice to meet you. Ben only nodded at this time, rather than offer a hand. He wasn't going to trust this man until he heard from Synge. If this man was who he said he was, his first relationship in many years would be over almost as soon as it began.Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some breakfast food to grab. With that being said, Ben goes back to his food he had placed on the warmer and brought it out to the lobby to eat at his table. He was going to treat this man coldly until he could find out more information.Heather ((You two are funny. They made an announcement about new mouths and eyes. It is now a common option when you make a new character)) (( I saw that announcement but guess I never looked at the new eyes. Plus, I thought that Synge created him before that change was made. Oh well.. hehe...did you like Ben's information about Keira? *LOL* I am sure I will hang for that one! ))

*As the two men were talking, Keira bursts through the door with the same smile on her face. She had been gone for 3 weeks or so. She felt a bit bad about it seeing as it was her fault and that she had a job here even*
Hiya new person! *She turns to Ben quickly* Yeah I am sorry Ben for being gone! Long story...
*Keira frowned and then waited for the new person to say something back*
((Lol, my font was also that blue when I was RPing here Synge! How dare you! *Changes color* xd ))

Long story... *Keira frowned and then waited for the new person to say something back* Here's the sea faring girl I mentioned. Ben decided to shift slightly into management mode as he saw Keira and heard her explanation.Long story? That's a story I would like to hear if you don't mind. Heather ((You can delete and make again. Kiki's eyes are new. I deleted her to get the eyes.

*Hikaru seemed confused that you would even be asking him about love. His manner of answering was very straight forward.*Of course I love her, but I doubt she'd ever take me for a lover, heh. I doubt she'd ever take anyone really. *He laughed at the thought of this and smiled across the bar at you. He seemed to be a little surprised at the cost of staying a night, but didn't seem too let down.*Well, perhaps that is why you have so little customers? I wonder what draws them in then, your pretty face maybe. No matter though, I could spend that for a few days, but then I'd be too cheap for you, but I have no issues with staying somewhere else and coming here everyday to see if I can find her here or not. *Hikaru was confused as the why Ben would be acting so coldtowards him, but didn't seem too worried about it overall. His personality was too laid back for that.*
Did I do something to upset you? I wouldn't like that. Care to fill me in? Kiki Liu Kilala *As the two men were talking, Keira bursts through the door with the same smile on her face.

I suck! I'll change mine, you change yours back!)) *Hikaru turned his attention to the girl as soon as she entered the room. He smiled charmingly and politely.*Ah, you must be the sea-faring gal I've heard so much about from Ben here. Nice to meet you, ah, what was your name? Ben never mentioned that! Mine is Hikaru.

*Keira shrugs*
Well, actually it's a short story...I got...lost...
*Keira blushed and felt rather odd about it. She then quickly turned to the man addressing her*
Sea-Faring gal? *She looks back at Ben a moment* Hmm I suppose so.
*Keira throws out her hand at the man and smiles*
My name is Keira. Nice to meet you Hikaru.
((That's better! xd 3nodding blaugh ))

Keira *Keira shrugs*Well, actually it's a short story...I got...lost... *Keira blushed and felt rather odd about it. She then quickly turned to the man addressing her* Hmm...You got lost? Well...perhaps you should avoid sea travel for a bit... PseudoMun *Hikaru seemed confused that you would even be asking him about love. His manner of answering was very straight forward.*Of course I love her, but I doubt she'd ever take me for a lover, heh. I doubt she'd ever take anyone really. *He laughed at the thought of this and smiled across the bar at you.

Did I do something to upset you? I wouldn't like that. Care to fill me in? Well, perhaps if she wouldn't take you as her lover she might have reasons...or perhaps that shows what kind of person you or her might be on the romance front. Doesn't really effect me though.... Another great part of being in business worlds for so many years is that Ben could bold face lie in some matters and wouldn't feel bad about it unless he made a wrong decision. However, as the man insults his prices, Ben takes some offense.Well then? Perhaps that is why I don't have customers you say? Perhaps if you paid attention to the amount of detail in this place...if you saw the rooms and the way they are furnished.. and you knew about the history of the place, you wouldn't feel that way. I used to offer it at lower prices but I simply can't afford to offer it cheaper with the current economy. But any man who comes to the same place each day looking for someone isn't being nice...they are being a stalker. He finishes most of his food and approaches the man, taking a seat near him with a determined look in his eyes.Did you upset me? Indeed you did. You burst in here, request information about someone like a stalker, insult the quality and comfort of my business and haven't acted in the politest accord to me...would you not be offended if our faces were reversed?

Nice to meet you Hikaru. ((That's better! xd 3nodding blaugh )) ((It has been so long since I've seen you RP that I forgot! xp )) *Hikaru stand to take Keira's hand with no delay and brings it close to his face, as if he is going to kiss the hand, but instead he looks at it for a moment and then shakes it pleasantly before letting go.*
Ah, interesting name. But yes, that is how Ben here described you...He also said something about coming and going like the sea, or something about love. I can't remember which anymore... Ben *Ben laughed inwardly as he thought about Hikaru's statement. He started eating some of his food as he pondered things. Well, perhaps if she wouldn't take you as her lover she might have reasons...or perhaps that shows what kind of person you or her might be on the romance front. Doesn't really effect me though....

Stalker you say? Hmm, I really hope not. I've always thought that trying to find someone you love, and someone you know needs help, was just being kind. Maybe my cousin will think differently, but I doubt it. As for the prices, maybe I'm wrong, but still...A little expensive I must admit. Perhaps the cost depends on the customer?
*Hikaru smiled politely as he said this, as if it wasn't an accusation.*I am starting to wonder, did Syngey do something to make you dislike her. Taking it out on me? Heh, well...

((Tis oK!))
*Keira's eyes lit up and she felt like a million bucks. She's never had a guy kiss her hand. Although, still in this happy feeling, she slowly realized that the new guy just shook it. She didn't even hear what he said and before she knew it he had relased and gone onto Ben.*
Ok...
*Keira just walks off now a little upset. She felt like she wasn't that important at the moment to both of them standing over there. She makes her way to the couch and frowns furiously with her back turned to the two men*
((Look at what you did Heather, you done pissed her off!! Hahahahaha))

Hikaru *Hikaru left Kiera where she was and turned back to Ben as he spoke to him. He notices the strangeness with with Ben talks about Synge, someone he isn't supposed to know at all. He was starting to feel a bit lied to, but shrugged it off. Anyway, he had more to deal with right now, considering Ben wasn't exactly happy with him. He couldn't help but laugh a little, being called a stalker.* Stalker you say? Hmm, I really hope not. I've always thought that trying to find someone you love, and someone you know needs help, was just being kind. Maybe my cousin will think differently, but I doubt it. As for the prices, maybe I'm wrong, but still...A little expensive I must admit. Perhaps the cost depends on the customer? *Hikaru smiled politely as he said this, as if it wasn't an accusation.* I am starting to wonder, did Syngey do something to make you dislike her. Taking it out on me? Heh, well... (( *LOL* Jealousy is a fun card to play sometimes! rofl )) It was obvious to him that he had apparently misunderstood Hikaru's role with Synge. As foolish as he felt he was still not sure whether to trust him or not. All of the discussions Synge had with him about her family were negative and he even seemed to remember her mentioning that one might be looking for her. With this in mind, he stood his ground. Perhaps jealousy did this to him? He wasn't really sure what jealousy felt like so he couldn't tell if that was the case. You can't tell me that if you constantly go to the same place everyday looking for someone who has only been seen there once isn't a little creepy. You must not have been around many of the less wholesome people in the world then. But my price is not dependent upon the customer, it is dependent upon the cost to run the place. If my vendors raise their costs, I must raise mine, if they lower theirs, I can lower mine. Simple as that. One with a knowledge of the business world would tell you the same thing. As he thought about Synge for a moment, he could certainly remember the things that made him not like her at first but now that he had seen past her and had seen the girl she really was, he wouldn't say such a thing. Regardless, he doesn't know whether or not to trust Hikaru so he simply kept on.Synge was only here for a short time and although she didn't exactly make the best impression on people, I am not one to hold grudges. That is your own assumption.... He had finished what he needed to say and took a seat back at this table, turning his attention to Keira.Keira I was on land actually. *Keira frowned* Lost on land? *chuckle* Well...that happens. how have you been? Both Hikaru and Keira would note that his attitude seemed to totally change inside of a second.

Making everyone angry today, heh)) *Hikaru stops short with his conversation with Ben, feeling that Kieia had walked away. Always one to notice these things, he turns around to take a quick glance at her.*What do you say Keira, do you think Ben here will forgive me for being so rude?
*He winked playfully at her before turning back around to face Ben.*Ben (( *LOL* Jealousy is a fun card to play sometimes! icon_rofl.gif )) It was obvious to him that he had apparently misunderstood Hikaru's role with Synge.

((Agreed hehe)) *Hikaru faced Ben as he spoke, taking the half insults that were being thrown. Hikaru still felt as though there was more going on then was being said, but wasn't sure yet how to get it out into the open. He smiled politely and bowed slightly for a moment in Ben's direction.*Well, well, forgive me if you can. I meant no offense. I'm just trying to find her, she was treated badly last time I saw her and think she may be suffering still. That is all. As for the reason I would come back, I know that she will be here. She needs to be here, that is a promise. *Hikaru watched Ben interact with Keira and noticed the obvious change, but didn't seem bothered by anything that was happening at the moment.*
