Dun dun dun, another one bites a tree stump, dun dun dun, another gets hit by a bus, and another one gone and another one gone... My sense of humor is dark.

Bio

You know the whole song and dance, I'm Eric, not really though, and I'm that one anti-social shy guy with a decent sense of humor and a love for Roleplays, stories, and all that good stuff. I honestly spend more time here then I should, but real life sucks, we all know that.

Although I can get behind just about any kind of roleplay, I have a passion for horror themed ones, but honestly, anything is fun.

My characters aren't the most amazing, original, or even interesting, most of them are pretty standard, thankfully I try to avoid the Mary/Gary sues when building characters.

And there we go.


@over easy That was a fast reply. Dear god I've never seen such speed. Except my cat when he hears a car. Alright I'll get working on it.
Whazzz uppppp! Any room left in this store or should I take my 10 coins elsewhere?
Gordon Edwards

The Crabbyshack, investigating a possible sabotage.



She had certainly stepped up to the plate quickly. They both were out of the rain, and the smell of the ocean instantly hit him square in the face like a surprise tax collectors visit. Seafood practically reined supreme in the building like cats marking their scent, and it was almost overbearing. A strong stomach was certainly required for this job, it made Gordon glad he didn't mind the smell to much. He'd witnessed others turn greenish hues the last time he'd been in there.

With a light bow, the man grinned at Keeler, but said nothing. She seemed like a spoiled one, but the kind that made up for it with their wit and smarts. The insults were going to annoy him though, so he pretended not to have heard the comment about his education or his birthright. Still, if she was going to be rude about it, he'd hold off on his own introduction for now.

Running a hand through his hair, Gordon raked his eyes around the establishment, until his eyes fell on the tank that contained the precious namesakes of the pub, the crustaceans. Without waiting for Elizabeth to follow, he swiftly advanced towards the tank, staring into it with intent. From what he had read, normally the tank was filled with the buggers, but as also stated, nearly 50% of them had gotten sick or died, neither of which was good for business, and now the tank only had a few within it's glassy confines.

His presence at the tank hadn't gone unnoticed, and one of the few waiters who worked the place came dashing up to him, almost in a panic.

"Hullo! Welcome to the Crabbyshack! I see you've taken an interes' in the lobster' n' such, but we're low at the moment and these ones are for disply' only!" His accent was thick, and his demeanor clearly pointed to a person with a dire need of money who had no experience working such a position, but regardless.

Gordon's head moved from the glass tank, to the troubled employee, grinning internally to himself for tricking a staff member into coming to him instead of hailing one over like he normally had to, then jabbed a thumb towards his lovely female companion.

"We're here to speak to your manager about the lobsters actually. Go alert her to our presence if you will." His voice was surprisingly smooth, but an edge in it made it clear he wasn't taking no for an answer.

"Mister!" The waiter flailed a bit, "S-She's b-busy at the moment! Y'can't jus'-"

"Your boss complained to the industry we work for, she'll be expecting us, so stop making excuses and bring us to her."

The waiter clammed up, and with a nod gestured for the two to follow him into the kitchen.

@Rune_Alchemist
I'm just waiting on y'all. :P
Alright so here's something to think about, does a place like the Crabbyshack have enough going for it to have something fancy like waiters, or is it more of a one person show?

(Edit) Ah heck, I'll just imagine the place with one or two, nothing big, nothing fancy, just some hicks who were slapped into somewhat nice uniform and made to work because they needed money.
@Raptra Take your pick, catching cats could be tricky, but so could convincing a couple of bickering loons to tell the truth.
@LetMeDoStuff :p Oh yeah, forgot about this for a bit. Uh, I'm gonna cancel, I'm caught up in a lot of other rps.
Up and running. Though writing doesn't really run.
