Topic: Knock, knock. Who's there? A singer, that's who!

The door flung open and from a rusty driver's seat she stepped, eyes wandering from behind light brown lenses of a kitty kat frame, jacket shook off and the slam of the copper door. Then, the steps, as the fluid stride of the Bandit Queen headed for the Club.


She'd heard of it, in town, and it had sparked interest. Waitressing (an excuse to get closer to the vibe), even some performances was what she hankered for, missing the music almost painfully in recent days. Her life had become a playground of action and firestarting, and while she loved it, so too did she pine for the cool shadows of a club, nestled on stage in sparkle, kicking her heels and belting a tune, with that voice of her hers, close to the ear like torches burning, mellifluous as she strode spunky under limelight...


Snapping out of her desiree, she pushed her forecaster into her belt, hiding it behind the jackets arm how she held it, and cleared her throat.

"Hellloooo in there! Meetin' with a Kina I do believe?"

A rap at the door and she stood tall, nudging the shades to the tip of her nose and awaiting that door to open.

The door is opened by a pair of identical twin bouncers, who usher the woman into the misty confines of the foyer, Twin number one looking the woman over before saying gruffly, "Wait here" before stalking off across the bar.

Lerida would not be left to cool her heels for long. Kina, looking absolutely petite next to the massive bouncers, hustles out of the office. "You must be the new applicant. I'm Kinadria Falconne, one of the club owners." The five foot nothing catling extends a scared palm for a handshake. "Welcome to the Alley Cat Club."

The catling waves the woman inside "Come take a look around."

Following the woman she shook hair from her face with a shake of the head and pushed the shades into her cleavage, turning in 360 as she walked, 'round and 'round, checking out the place, fishing for that 'vibe'.

"What's the crowd like?"

She asked, reminiscing on days of glory, eyes sparkled furiously as she finally stopped to settle her eyes on Kina and leant into a foot.

"I like it!", she thought to herself, and with a broad grin, she canted her head to the side.

"The crowd depends on the night, Right now Monday nights are our biggest draws, thats when Sheyleigh and Dark perform. Otherwise its pretty standard every night at between forty and fifty people in the doors at any one time."

The catling looks the woman over. "Right now we have all the performers we need lined up.. but we have been looking for an assistant bartender. Are you interested?"

Daerli took a moment to ponder. She'd given it a go, earlier, in her old life, at the tavern, but here, here was different, what she was familiar with. Here was music, smoke, stagelight, thromping basslines that slithered to shake the floorboards and have her snake hipped...

"Ok. We have a deal"


A look back to Kina, hand proferred, the other rested at the dip of her waist. She was ready.

"Show me how you like it done, and we're on"


A broader grin, then, life abundant in her eyes.
