@SpookySquidTaking the keycard as quickly as he could without seeming rude Chuck smiled at the seeress with gratitude.
"I shouldn't worry, perhaps it means good things for my business in the city." He told her before quickly making his way through the almost rioting crowd and slipping into one of the elevators waiting just off the lobby.
The ride up was uneventful, the only other passengers being an attractive young blonde elf female with perfect sunkissed skin a look that screamed 'wannabe film star' and an old, wrinkled elf male with a look which uttered behind a concealing hand 'casting couch pornographer'. While the girl seemed to be hopping from one foot to the other with excitement for whatever the old man had promised was going to be happening in his room, the man eyed Chuck suspiciously with sweat glistening on his brow, as if expecting him to whip out a badge and ask him some very pointed questions.
When they reached Chuck's floor and he moved to step out of the small travelling box he heard the 'movie producer' sigh audibly in relief. Turning back for a moment Chuck saluted him with two fingers tapping the side of his mask.
"Best of luck for tonight," he said with a wink.
"Thank you!" The future pornstar answered eagerly, thinking Chuck had been speaking to her as the 'producer' returned Chuck's wink with a gleeful smile.
Chuck wasted no time heading into the room he'd been assigned and using the keycard unlocked the door on the first attempt before pushing it open.
That just proves nothing in this place is real. He thought with a chuckle, turning to see if there was a computer terminal or workstation of any kind he could access the internet on in the room.
