Synopsis: Sam asks for Logan's advice about booze.
Cast of Characters: Wolverine, Cannonball




Wolverine has posed:
    The stables are quiet this time of night, most of the horses and Brightwind are asleep, occasional breaths and sounds being heard from them as they might jostle a touch in their sleep. But they are used to Logan being there at odd hours as he tends to what needs doing.
    Currently the line of light bulbs along the hallway cast a hearty glow on the interior. The wheel barrow next to an open stall is partially tilted on its side and there's a faint /scrraape/ /scraaape/ sound of a shovel working along the floor in that empty stall.
    A heavy glob of manure is tossed into the wheel barrow with a faint fwumpf, and for a moment Logan pauses as he rests the shovel spade first, hands resting upon the end of it. After a moment or two he starts to hum a song to himself, but stops fairly quickly.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie has actually been out here himself helping out as well, specially with Brightwing. Tonight though, Sam has actually came looking for Logan. He has a six pack of beers with three in it, and a note pad with him. As he gets tot he door, He will speak in a normal tone knowing Logan should be able to hear him, but it is not loud enough to disturb the animals "Logan, you have a moment to talk, Ah need some advice, and think you maybe able to help."

Wolverine has posed:
    The elder X-Man emerges from the stall and catches sight of Sam, giving the kid a nod as he sets the shovel down in the corner of the now clean stall and then starts to walk down the hallway. He emerges through that back door, holding it open for Sam to come on through with him, then taks a few strides until the door swings shut behind them.
    A cigar comes out of his jacket and there's a flicker of light that likely only Sam can see as Logan shields the light with the curve of his hand, then he takes a drag and his nostrils flare as he takes in the sounds and smells of the night.
    Over his shoulder he asks, "What's eating you, Sam?"

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie will walk over offering the man the carton with two beers in it. Sam has pulled one out, but Logan's enhanced senses can see the one Sam while dark brown is an ICB rootbeer. "Well sir there are a few things on that, but Ah actually came to ask for some advice about a new job Ah am starting and figured, Ah knew maybe two men who would be best to ask for some advice on specific parts of it.

Wolverine has posed:
    Above the night sky has low hanging clouds, rain or snow likely coming tommorrow or the next day. It's enough to haze over the moon and prevent a good amount of light from reaching them. But all in all it's an amiable night.
    He accepts that carton of two beers and sets it down beside the wall of the stables, leaving it there for now. Another drag on his cigar and Logan stands there unmoving, gaze sidelong and levelled on Sam. He waits a moment for the youth to continue but then he says, "A'right."

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie nods, and says "Ah am going to be running a club in Mutant Town, perhaps you have heard of it. Club Evolutiohn? Ah am looking over the place, and looking at all the booze they sell, and realize that is something Ah know little about. Ah was wondering if you would look over the brands they have and let me know if if is things that is worth having. The clube is all ages, so Ah not looking to get folks hammered easily, or watered down stuff. Ah would like to make sure we have a little cheap stuff, a little expensive stuff, but mostly decent stuff that we can make a profit on, but aint gonna cost the customer too much. " he will smile and add "And if Ah need to keep a keg of a special brew on hand for you as well."

Wolverine has posed:
    Still eyeing Sam sidelong, Logan quirks an eyebrow and then says with all such a matter-of-fact tone of voice, as if trying to explain the Nets=Death equation to an errant dolphin.
    "Sam, yer 20."
    But then he holds up a hand to stave off protests and instead takes another angle. "Look, kid. If yer lookin' to throw your money away and just wanna make a decent place ta hang out for you and your buddies, then hey by all means."
    He takes another drag on his cigar, "If yer actually expectin' ta make some money, then I'd advise against the whole cockamamie scheme." He shifts his weight to the other foot and seems flares the cigar again, then crushes the ember with the sizzle of two fingertips.
    He turns and looks like he's about to head back in, the signal being him throwing his butt away into the woods.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie looks to the man and says "Ah know I am 20 sir, but it is a decent club, that has been there for a while. Actually a popular place. Live music open to all ages and such. Ah will be honest, Ah been going there for a while, and like the place. Ah had an idea about the place and was telling Berto about it, and he offered to buy the place if Ah ran it and tried some of my ideas.

Wolverine has posed:
    Well that changes things. Logan stuffs his hands in his pockets, tilting his head to reconsider Sam and gives a nod, "Roberto puttin' up the money then?" He heaves a grunt and looks past Sam, letting his gaze distance for a time as he thinks about matters. Then he gives a nod.
    "A'right, he can stand ta lose some coin. And for you it might be a learnin' thing. Alright." He says that last word as if reaffirming it more to himself than the youth.
    Then back to Sam, "Get him ta pay you a salary on top of any percentage deal. You head on back and next time I see you I'll have a booze list. Used ta run a place myself back in Madripoor. Might be a few years outta date but it'll be a starting point."

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie nods his head a bit to this and says "We are talking salary still, Ah trust him, and to be honest most of it will be going into trust for the little ones. Ah been to a couple places in Mandipoor, the ones I went to were probably a bit more high class than this place, but I do appreciate the help. Also, was wondering if you knew of anyone who might need work. Ah plan to ask guido to come check out the bouncers but Ah of course trust any suggestions you have as well. Place aint any big problems, but in Mutant town could be some issues, plus hoping to put word out that if someone is needing help that might be able to get word to the x-men. Figure there is already a tie to us with the big mural on the wall.

Wolverine has posed:
    "Ehn, we'll see." Logan steps to the door and pushes it open. "Alright, I said what I was gonna do. Get lost, kid." He nods his head and lays a shoulder to keep the door open for a time as he heads back into the stables and sees about getting back to work.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie nods and writes something down offering it t the man "Thats the adress if you want to check it out." He offers to the man before heading out. He can be heard talking to himself as he goes "Now, how to ask an ex to play at a grand reopening while not upsetting the current girl." He hmms
