Thread: Ro and X WHO: Xavier and Romance WHEN: A week before No Man's Land was declared WHERE: Throttle Saloon WHAT: A meeting of the Rodare. X picks a Queen. RATING: R - Violence and Implied Sexual Abuse
It was five minutes past nine o’clock when Xavier, better known as X by the rest of his clan, strolled into the dimly lit bar. He gave a nod to the man behind the bar before ducking just right of it. There was a doorway, which led to a hallway, which in turn ended up in the back room of the bar. Here was where they held clan business. Whether it was important or not… only the rodare where allowed in that little doorway. The bartender had been instructed to shoot anyone that tried to get back there that wasn’t marked as a rat. So far no had been stupid enough to go back there which meant that X was doing his job correctly. People understood that you didn’t mess with the Rat King or his clan. The punishment was fatal.
As X pushed the door open he could hear talking. He didn’t pay enough attention to try to hear what it was that they were talking about; he just noticed that it stopped as soon as he came into sight. A slight smirk crept onto his face as he took his hat off, hanging onto the hat rack. He gave a quick look around the room to see who was there or better yet who wasn’t. Just because he was late didn’t mean that the rest of the clan was allowed to be. He shook his head as he noticed that there was one of the younger rats missing. Well that would just mean a trip to visit the young thing. “So glad that all of you could make it” He said so that everyone could hear him. “Someone get me a jack and coke” he flopped down onto his seat. The room had been moved around so that everyone had somewhere to sit or stand but still be able to see their King.
“Well I’m sure you are all wondering why I have called you and you will find out in a minute” He paused to wait for someone to bring him his drink. Once it was in his hand he took a sip of it and sighed. It didn’t matter that it was harder for him to get drunk that humans… he just enjoyed the taste. “So I have decided to pick a queen” He took another sip as whispers broke out from the small crowd. He pulled out his pack of cigarettes, lighting one up while he waiting on the murmur to quiet.
