LAU, YOU CAN BE GUEST OF HONOUR

[reanimated]

Days one through four without boss: Aces, the pub is mine for the night, free shots for everyone, etc. etc.

Day five without boss: Considering the possibility that he might be dead? Aces, the pub is mine for the night, free shots for everyone, etc. etc.

Day six without boss: Turns out he was released, the pub is mine FOREVER, free shots for ME, etc. etc.

Anyway so he's gone and seeing as he left no last will and testament (cos what would it say anyway? "I leave all my shite poetry about blood to my girlfriend, ohhhhhhhhh wait") I'm going to go ahead and say the Phony is now under my ownership from here until the end of time!

"But Nathan, you don't know how to run a business" — WHO GIVES A SHIT? Open bar at the Phony tonight in loving memory of our dearly departed friend Connor or Constatine or whatever the fuck!

Pour one out for Conrad, right? I'll try and convince Lydia, think she must be pissed a me for getting arrested. Start without me!

[reanimated]

Who's Conrad?

[reanimated]

Why would she be angry with you? Thought she liked bad boys.

[notvictorious]

Nevermind. I'll text you when I'm on my way over.

[notvictorious]

Tell Ramona she's on Nathan babysitting duty till I get there!

[reanimated]

I don't need babysitting, I'm a BUSINESS OWNER now

[icesolation]

I don't think it works like that.

[reanimated]

And why wouldn't it work like that? Look I'm essentially his next of kin as far as fucked up immortal genetics go so I'd say it absolutely works like that.

[icesolation]

I thought you were his employee.

[reanimated]

That too! And excuse the fuck out of me, do I know you?

[icesolation]

I was working for Conrad as his accountant.

[highlyinformed]

I believe Conrad was an employee at the bar before its previous owner was released.

[icesolation]

That's ridiculous. That's no way to run a business.

[highlyinformed]

I agree, it should go to someone who is responsible enough to own a business. Mister Young hasn't the experience.

[highlyinformed]

I've never been a guest of honour before.

[reanimated]

OI

[reanimated]

Well fuck me, I didn't think he'd have it in him to hire a beautiful woman without pissing himself in the process! So, you do the books. Is that all you do?

[highlyinformed]

You're much better suited for a managerial position.

[icesolation]

Are you implying something?

[icesolation]

Yes. Why, is there something else I should be doing?

[reanimated]

Seriously? You're practically the life of the party!

[reanimated]

What the fuck's the difference?

[highlyinformed]

I've had an interest in this bar's success since the very beginning. I'd be happy to compensate Mister Young for a fair stake in its future. You would be the lady to discuss numbers with, I take it?

[highlyinformed]

You flatter me. May I bring my sister?

[reanimated]

I guess we'll find out together, won't we?
