Joel Castilloux, arrival to MM, lobby

Joel Castilloux arrived by cab to the Morningstar. He had made all the arrangements by solicitor, so the Morningstar Manor had only been pictures to him so far.

He had made arrangements with his agent to have the two bedroom apartment furnished and what items he wanted from home had already been shipped and should, if all things went to plan, be in place.

Joel paid the driver. He walked past the doorman and into the lobby of his new home.

He stopped near the middle of the lobby and did a slow turn to take in what would now be his home.

	"Hallllooooo," Sarah Roth said with a smile. The guy looked a little lost, and he didn't look familiar. New tenant, maybe. She gave him a friendly wave. "Impressive, huh?" She did a slow turn, too. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Joel stopped and looked at her. "Yes, Impressive. I've only seen this through pictures, so I'm taking it all in." Turning to the woman, "Joel Castilloux." he said. "Just moving in." he announced. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Sarah Roth. Nice to meet you. You'll probably love it here. I say probably because most people do, but ya know, I don't know you. You could hate it," she said. "But I doubt it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Joel chuckled, "Well, I'm sure my solicitor would not steer me wrong. She knows what I like and don't. Though living in a step up is different from living in a home." He looked to see the amenities that were in the lobby. The bookstore caught his eyes as did the coffee shop. "So far so good." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You have a great accent!" Sarah grinned and followed his gaze around the lobby. "Yeah, we have a great bookstore, really stellar coffee shop. The Mocha rocks. But watch out for Joy." She shuddered. "She'll boil you with her eyeballs." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Joel forgot he was in the land of America and people love accents. "Joy? Who is she? and why would she boil me with her eyeballs?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	'She's the barista, and she hates EVERYONE," Sarah told him. "She'll strip the skin off you with her laser beam gaze, just because! But she does make a mighty fine mocha latte, I'll give her that." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well I'm more of a tea man myself. Can you recommend a place where I can get a good cuppa tea?" H was going to have to find a good pub too, but it was to early to think of a lager just yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Hmmmm. You can get a good cup or pot of tea in the Mocha. Also in the Green Bean, which is in the Farmer's Market, at the Foundry. If you don't know that place, you need to go," Sarah said seriously. "They have a really great selection of loose teas. AND scones. Yummy!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"That will hit the spot, maybe you can show me sometime. I'm terriably rubbish when it comes to directions." He looked once more around. "How do you like living in this high style of luxury?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	manorplayer_m 2010-02-25 06:09 pm UTC (link)
	"Love it," she said. "Wouldn't live any other place in the whole world. And I'd be happy to show you, any time!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	joelcrpg 2010-02-25 06:17 pm UTC (link)
	Joel smiled at her, "Thank you. Now, I need to meet someone to sign some papers to make this all proper. I believe the manager has the proper paperwork for me." He remembered to ask, "Where do you reside Ms. Roth?" He would have to remember this information. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Ah, you'll want Ms. Vale, she's in the Tenant Office, just that way." Sarah pointed. "I'm up on twelve. I'll see you around, though, especially if you brave Joy's wrath and dare enter the Mocha." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Thank you," he said as he eyed whee Sarah pointed to. "And we'll see about Joy and her laser eyes. The tought of getting used to American coffee is beyond me at the moment." Joel gave a shiver to that thougt. "I believe I'm on the seventh," he said. "Thank you for your time and look forward in bumping into you."

Joel headed towards the Tenant office as directed and readied himself to sign his life away.
