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.

"That's right! I'm bad with faces, sorry about that," he chuckled. "Yeah I'm into cars and I've read some of your things. I like to renovate old classics back to their former glory on my free time, slowly but surely. I buy old heaps of rust, skeletons of classics, and then I spend a lot of time and money and effort to revive them." He shrugged. "It's just a hobby."

"We all say that," Joel replied. "I have my few babies being stored back home while I'm here. We'll have to get together and talk about them. I'm looking forward to seeing what I may find here. My friend had a great love for American Muscle cars." With that thought Joel frowned. One of the reasons he was here was to forget. He tried to change back to the happy face but failed slightly. "So you recommend the high style living here?"

Robbie looked around a bit. "High style... well it is awfully decorated and a little pompous but it is the place to be and the best place to live. There's almost everything you need here, the coffee shop there and a garden, a pool and another garden on the roof, a freaking spa in the cellar, there's the best pub of the City right around the corner - the Slaughtered Lamb - a big library and Lord knows what," he listed and rolled his eyes. "And the service is phenomenal, the community is active and friendly, and the ladies..."

Joel had to chuckle with him when he said 'ladies.' "Perhaps once I get settled you can direct me to the local hot spots. I'm terriable with directions and usually have to ask more than once how to get there. One reason to living here, to be close to things."

Joel wished he had a new card on him, he still had to get a cell phone set up and such. "Do you have a card? I could ring you when I'm set up?"

"I'll take you to the Lamb for a pint some time," Robbie promised while he reached inside his jacket and got his wallet out of the breast pocket. From there he got a card and handed it to Joel - it said his name, his contact information, boasted a peculiar Celtic logo, the company name Gréasaí and a title under Robbie's name - CEO.

"There's the number, but you can find me up on the fourth floor, I'm 479."

	"Thank you, look forward to catching up with you to the Lamb." A taste of home would be in good order. "I'll ring you when I get settled in." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Brilliant," Robbie said brightly and zipped up his jacket again. "See you around, Joel," he said with a nod of his head and headed for the front doors where he had been going. (Reply to this) (Parent)
