 [u][b] Los Paraisos : the Grande Diamond[/u][/b]

Aria followed as Mordie led the way through the Grande Diamond, chatting almost nonstop as they stopped here and there to peek into some rooms. She couldn’t help but grin in response to the white-haired woman’s cheeriness, following along closely as the group moved through the first floors of the building while giving occasional glances back to Chirps and Lucy to make sure they were keeping up and not tripping over their shoes or dresses. Now that would be quite the sight.

[i] "At this rate the tour's only gonna last a few minutes. Once we hit the fifth floor, it's nothin' but... well, bedrooms for the ol' GD's patrons ta rent out. Ooh, does anyone here like dungeons? The whooole seventh floor is dedicated ta that. Ah think. Or was it the eighth floor? Hmmm. Oh, actually! Follow me!"[/i]

“Dungeons? I guess some people are into that kind of thing, huh? Or is that where you put the rulebreakers?” Aria laughed in reply, half joking and made a mental note to ask around about these dungeons on the upper floors sometime later. Perhaps they were just there for… certain activities some rich people might have a thing for, but one could never be too careful. It certainly sounded ominous enough. Maybe check out the fifth floor as well, just case.

They finally stopped on the balcony conveniently overlooking the bustling party happening underneath, giving them a great view of the crowded floor. The lively jazz music playing had her tapping her toes to the beat. This was certainly one fun mission.

[i] "Anyhoo. Y'all know each other or somethin'? Been waitin' to get employed here? The GD hasn't had its hirin' sign up for that long, so ah'm just curious." [/i] Mordie’s eyes met Aria’s.[i] "'n where are ya other girlfriends? Yaknow, from the Pellagio? Not confident enough to sign up too?"[/i]

“That’s part of it, I guess.” Aria answered vaguely with a small laugh before continuing. “As for us applying so quickly, word does get around. It is one of the best establishments in the resort after all, and we certainly didn’t want to miss this big chance.”

Aria turned around from where she had been leaning on the railing of the balcony. “How about you, Mordie? How long have you been working here?” It was a genuine question. She had been quite surprised to find out the woman from the casino yesterday would be working here. “And how about your handsome friend from yesterday? Does he work here too?" The illusionist gave an amicable laugh. "After that exciting round yesterday I've been itching to play a good game of poker. Perhaps we could get together and play some cards sometime now that we might become coworkers." She paused in thought. "Speaking of work, what do you do here? We might be seeing quite a bit of each other from now on."
