--ropes for the night. I can't really tell how Kage Karasu -- *Parody* feels about that but I put a smile on my face as I approach her, holding --

--out a hand in Kage Karasu -- *Parody*'s direction* It's nice to meet you. I'm Jesse.

*I can't help but notice that it takes Kage Karasu -- *Parody* quite a while to respond though I'm not exactly sure why. Maybe she's just not that-

--happy about having to show me the ropes when Kage Karasu -- *Parody* also has her own job to get on with. I could understand that, I don't think-

--I would be too thrilled myself. I keep my eyes on Kage Karasu -- *Parody* though and my hand outstretched in her direction, smile still on my --

--lips. There's a bit of an awkward pause, I can't deny it and...there's a look on Kage Karasu -- *Parody*'s face that I can't quite place right --

--now. Maybe I'm just thinking over things a little too much and I must be because within a couple of moments she shoots me a smile, --

--finally managing to shake my hand. I laugh a little Kage Karasu -- *Parody*'s comment, pulling my hand back after shaking hers and slipping it --

--into the pocket of my jeans.* Well, I do prefer Jesse but I suppose 'fresh meat' will do just as well. So, you're going to be showing me--

--the ropes then, Kage Karasu -- *Parody*? I hope it's not too much bother for you.

*To be honest I did notice the fact that Kage Karasu -- *Parody*'s hand was slightly warmer than I was expecting but I didn't mention it. It --

--wasn't exactly something that many people just came out with....and her hand wasn't the only thing hot about her but there was no way I --

--was ever going to mention that. You don't exactly tell your workmate you find her attractive when you've only just met. Kage Karasu -- *Parody*--

--doesn't answer me, only shrugging her shoulders so I simply nod my head, loitering by the entrance to the club. I had already clocked in--

--since I had arrived so early.*

*I don't notice Kage Karasu -- *Parody* glance at me because I'm still taking in my surroundings as best as I can. Maybe I should have came here --

--a couple of times before I started just to get a feel for the place but it's a little too late now. My eyes do move back to --

--Kage Karasu -- *Parody* as she gestures for me to follow. I laugh a little under my breath, nodding as I follow her out into the club.* I'm --

--as ready as I'll ever be Kage Karasu -- *Parody*. *I'm not really surprised by what I see when I walk out. It's a club and I've been to plenty --

--in my time. I can totally do this.*
