Location: Unknown
Synopsis: Summary needed
Cast of Characters: Domino, Sublime




Domino has posed:
It's not the usual place one would expect, but tonight, the patrons of the Yellow Flag are in good spirits. The beer is cheap(er) tonight, and there aren't an over abundance of customers.

That means there's less chance of a fight breaking out.

Buried in the arse-end of Chinatown, the Yellow Flag is, oddly enough, run by Thai immigrants, and owned by a part of interest in Madripoor. It's got great pad woon sen, but that's not the draw for this establishment - this is a place where hired muscle comes to look for work.

The entire bar is dimly lit, golden yellow lights from slowly turning ceiling fans above. Everything is wood, and in the corners god shelves are decorated with golden statues, a few with incense lit burning beneath them. The back of the bar is mirrored and lined with just about every vintage you can think of. Simple round tables and folding chairs are scattered around the floor, with round stools at the bar and booths against the wall.

Sitting alone in the back right corner is a woman dressed entirely in some kind of black bodysuit. The rest of her looks as if God used a grayscale printer - white skin, black hair, dark gray oval over one eye. She's reading from her phone, a bottle of fireball whiskey open in front of her.

Sublime has posed:
    The door opens, drawing a few looks...then a few more looks at the blonde stepping in. She's worth the second look, as she apparently hasn't learned to dress down for meeting in places like this..or that's just her regular uniform. It's..well, tight, and that's usually enough. Rather than the full bodysuit, she's gone for the bare midriff, though she does have the abs to pull it off at least.

    She glances around a bit, then saunters her way over to the bar, looking like she owns the place, either out of personal arrogance or just putting on such to hide concern. She pauses at the bar to talk to the bartender a bit. Some money changes hand, as well as a bottle of beer, before she walks over towards Domino's corner, looking a bit irritated as she tries to find a free seat that's not taken.

Domino has posed:
Ice blue eyes glance up the moment the door opens. Domino is ever circumspect, and isn't here without a means of handling trouble. As the tall girl gets her beer, Dom sits up straighter, pulling her feet off the seat across from hers, and attempt to make eye contact with Sublime, thumbing towards the now empty seat across from her at the booth.

Sublime has posed:
    The blond bombshell has a certain haughty air, like she's far too good for this place and she knows it. But...here she is. Because she needs to be. So...she'll just suck it up.

    Her blue eyes run across the woman in the bodysuit, then meeting her eyes, slowing a bit. After a moment of thought, she alters her course towards the corner. Up closer, it's obvious she has some sort of holster slung behind the small of her back, about a foot and a half across and several inches thick, that's currently closed. Though there's a faint jingle like...chains?...inside when she gets closer, then gracefully slides into the chair. "...hey." she says evenly, watching Domino curiously.

Domino has posed:
The jukebox plays in the background, not too loud, but not unnoticeably. Seems that Lujack is in a 90's mood tonight. ( https://youtu.be/rWBM2whL0bI )

"Evening. You're a new face here," Domino greets. She's friendly enough, giving a slight smile. Her body language is relaxed and confident, as she glances down at the phone once more, turning it off, and sliding it into a side pocket beneath the table.

Sublime has posed:
    The girl cocks her head slightly, still a bit wary despite the smile. While she's playing it cool, it doesn't extend to her body language completely...she's pushing attitude to cover uncertainty. "Yes...haven't been here before. But I hear it's a good place for...connecting with people." she says simply after a moment, taking a sip of her beer. "Thanks for the seat...
