Why: Craven is just curious, tis all
Rating: PG

Craven had gotten the majority of the information he wanted from the wench at the bar on Tuesday. He had spent the past few days looking around for the tribes and their respective leaders. He figured out who Saga and Lokie were but was a bit unsure about the smaller tribe. If Olivia was indeed in this damn town, Craven was pretty sure she wouldn't be with them. A small, weak-willed tribe that had to pay tribute to another more powerful tribe, yeah, so not worth Craven's time.

But he wasn't so sure that she would be with The Lost Girls either. So he decided to get a bit closer to both the Aesir and the Lost Girls. This way he could also get rid of any threats before he got his hands on Olivia.

His first stop was the machanic shop he had heard about. His plan, to pretend to be interested in their work. He wore tennis shoes with jeans and an old tee-shirt this time. He had to look the part of an interested machanic just 'passing through'. "Uh.. excuse me? Is there anyone here I can talk to?" he asked, walking into the shop.

Loki felt his head spin as he whipped it up from the crouching position he'd taken in front of the bike. The warehouse buzzed with busy hands and mouths as each member of the tribe worked to try and meet the ridiculous demand for the bikes that had previously been sitting idle against the walls. He didn't want to seem ungrateful but he was tired as a dog and fast running out of parts and patience. Everybody had mucked in,if they weren't doing a job then they'd better find one or find themselves out on their ear for the week - if you didn't pull your weight you didn't get a roof.

Luckily for him the extra trade meant that he'd been able to organise a party down at the bar to wave goodbye to the week and welcome in the sunrise of the weekend. It felt teenage but he was currently clinging to the thought of knocking back more booze than his grandaddy to get him through the afternoon.

The voice at the door was a strangely unwelcome sound. He wasn't a mean person by nature but one more body at the door meant one more bike to sell and he hadn't spotted anything resembling a sell-able bike since Thursday morning. Frowning as light spots danced at the edges of his eyes he made his way slowly to the man standing in the busy workshop. "There's lots of people to talk to," Loki replied wiping his hands on the back of his jeans, "The subject of your conversation might help me narrow down just who exactly you'd need to talk to," he cast an assessing look over the man. The man wasn't any younger than Loki and his face was hard like a man on a mission. Crossing his arms over his chest Loki inhaled and subtly brought his shoulders up.

Craven grinned on the inside. He had heard that Loki was the leader of this tribe, but he, frankly, was expecting more from the guy. Just the fact that the man had to bring up his shoulder to look bigger told Craven that he was an incompetent fool.

Craven extended a friendly hand anyways. "Hi there, I'm Craven. I'm new to to town and heard there may be some work here working on bikes? I was wondering if that was true or not? Could you all use a hand?" He was pleasant and a little eager sounding. Craven had to sell the act of a man in need of work. Shouldn't be a problem and as soon as he was in enough with this tribe, the sooner he could get the information he was looking for.

He shook Cravens hand then crossed his arms over his chest and gave Craven a long once over. He didn't bother to hide the scrutiny in his gaze - it was his tribe afterall and although he could waste time trying to be discreet he was too tired to bother with subtefuge. He was going to chew this over and then make a decision. It could take days but the Aesir wasn't for the weak of will.

"Is that right?" the guy was reasonably hamrless looking but there was a glint beneath the unassuming and non-threatening look on his face. Loki wasn't a stranger to unsavoury characters in the neighbourhood, three quarters of the world was unsavoury - heck once upon he'd been unsavoury, but that didn't mean he was going to let murderers and thieves into his tribe. Although there was nothing outwardly threatening to the man before him, he wasn't taking a risk. "You got any experience with motorbikes? Engines of any sort?"

Craven didn't put hard pressure in the handshake, just enough for it to be a respective man handshake. No need to crush any bones today. Craven nodded his head curtly in response to Loki's 'Is that right?' question.

"Yes sir, it is. And I have some experience with mechanics. Mostly computer stuff, but I fixed up a beaut of a Mustang before the world went to heck." More like he jacked up a beautiful Mustang, but what's the difference really? If he can take them apart and place hidden tracking devices, then he could easily put them back together, right? Of course he could. The man before him wouldn't know any different.

Loki's arms never moved from their posiition crossed over his chest but he did nod when the guy claimed to have fixed up a mustang. Bikes were different to cars though. "Look I can't offer you a job right here on the spot, it's a democracy around here so I'm gonna run it by my tribe and I'll let you know. It's the best I can do, is there somewhere I can contact you? A place you're staying?"
