Drowning Sorrows

((OOC: Ok, thanks Mara. I think one more post with the bartender and then we can have Rogarr join Pak. How's that?))

Rogarr just nodded at the bartender's reply. It made sense. It probably was better off to lay low in a place like this but, Rogarr was confident that he wouldn't stir up any trouble. He wasn't that big of a nuisance yet. Rogarr considered himself fortunate. In his 5 years of working as a mercenary and pilot for hire, he hadn't made alot of enemies, well not big ones anyways, which was probably thanks to taking mostly small supply run jobs. The biggest enemy he'd made was only recently and he'd managed to dodge that blaster fire, proving himself harder to take down than a simple ship to ship skermish.

Rogarr smiled, his usual cheery grin lighting up his face. "I'm an Amaran sir. I take it you haven't seen alot of us out here. That's to be expected since most of my race tends to keep to themselves. I wanted to see the galaxy though, instead of being cooped up on the station as a plain old mechanic, so now I'm a plain old mercenary" Rogarr said with a hint of mirth and nostalgia. His green eyes darted to the Balosar as he placed his credits on the bar and stood up. The Amaran's ears went up in suprise, expecting the antennabulbed alien to fall right back down to the floor. The Balosar trudged out without trouble though, making Rogarr shake his head in amazement. If I had had that much to drink I'd be passed out cold. I wonder how high a tolerance that Balosar has he thought as he turned back around to the bar.

"Hey Barkeep, who was that Balosar that just walked out of here? Is he a regular?" Rogarr smiled pleasantly, if there was one thing that he'd learned in his five years of working as a merc, it was this. Trust your gut...and right now Rogarr's was telling him that, that Balosar was worth getting to know.

((Sounds good.. new thread should be up soon...))

Arruna, Darken, you two can stay here as long as you want )



The man turned back to his ritual cleaning of the countertop after scooping up the pile of credits the Balosar had left. He would be eating pretty tonight thanks to that guy.

Now that things had calmed down some, with the fight having broken up and the two assailants still out cold on the floor, their opponents sitting at the bar, he could get back to business. Or what passed for business out here in this dump. This dump where he made his living. If only...

His head snapped back up as the furry being started talking again. He had thought the guy had left after getting his answer. He was wrong. The guy was right, though, he hadn't seen any Amarans on Ylesia, ever. Kind of reminded him of stunted Cathars, in a way. A stunted Cathar mixed with a stunted Bothan, but he hadn't always been that good with science.

With nothing to say to the little things little introduction, he just continued on with his rag, now turning it to the few empty glasses he had laying around, shoving the cloth inside until the vessel squeaked. Not squeaky clean, just squeaky.

He grunted at the Amaran's question and shrugged. "My ticket to not going bankrupt this week." He paused a moment, then added, "Haven't seen him before. I'd remember a drinker like that." The human shrugged again and started putting away his cleaned glasses. "Probably just passing through, like everyone else."

Rogarr nodded and gulped down the rest of his drink "What's your strongest drink in here? I think I'll take two for the road if you don't mind." Rogarr watched as the bartender dug around for the specific drinks and came up a few minutes later, naming a price. Rogarr grimaced at the price but paid anyway, it would doubtless be a good start in negotiations with the Balosar.

"Thanks a bunch, cya around" Rogarr said grabbing the bottles and giving the bartender a quick salute. Then he turned around and started for the door. Just then his comlink beeped, telling him his artificial intelligence, Vera, was trying to contact him.
"This is Rogarr, go ahead"
