Who: Vash and you
Broadcast: Yes
Action: The Space Bar
When: Right now

[Vash stands in The Space Bar as it takes a moment for him to talk himself into making an announcement. Perhaps it was because part of him had hoped that Nami would be coming back.]

Hey. [There's a pause. He's heard these types of posts so many times. More than any other person in the fleet except for one, but he still didn't know how to start them.] So, Nami has been sent home. [Or at least he hoped so. Vash still had his doubts about that, but it still sounded nicer.] I guess I just wanted to let everyone know the bar is still open for business.

And, I suppose we should have a staff meeting. Figure out who's going to run the place. [Because he's not management material.] And maybe think about hiring someone else full time?

Ben is happy to stick around too. And I don't see Looma quitting her job as bouncer just because Nami is gone, but I haven't checked in with her just yet.

[For a second Vash hesitates again.] I think Loki was just part time. I'm not sure Nami was his biggest fan.

[Ok, this needed to be sorted out. Reaching into his coat, Remy produced a pen and small writing pad, flicking over to an empty page and dropped it down onto the bar top as he wrote down names.]

I think the last list we had officially was out of date 'nyways, had people who have gone since then. [Remy scribbling down his own name, Vash, Sara, Looma, and Ben. Then after a moment remembering to add Chekov. And Mantis with a question mark next to his.] I say we need maybe one more bar staff, just to be safe, part timer. Also just for general cleanin' 'nd the like too. If we need 'nough chef later on, we can ask 'round for that then.

That's probably a good idea. [Back up should anyone else leave.] Do you have any one in mind?

[Remy opened his mouth to speak, then closed it again and gave a shake of his head.] Non, not at all. We can always advertise later on if we need to.

I do wanna get a look at her paperwork though, figure out what kinda stock list she got 'nd how she sorts out costs 'nd the like. Be good to start gettin' my head 'round it all 'nd see if I can work with her system or I gotta change it 'nto sometime 'm more use to.

Yeah, me either. [The he smirks and giggles slightly.] How do you think Kurt has been doing with his people skills lately? I'm sure he'd just LOVE to work here.

[That... was an option, and while Remy liked it from the point of view of having another friend around...] I got no clue if be the right job for him, or even if he wants one. Can't hurt to ask though. Provided he don't teleport 'round the food 'nd stuff. [Brimstone and sulfur was not appetizing.]

Oh. [Vash hadn't expected Remy to take him seriously.] I didn't think he'd really be interested, but yeah sure! Why not ask him? He doesn't have to say yes after all.

[Why not?

Then again... It was Darkholme. He wasn't quite a Wagner... And while Remy didn't think Kurt had too many issues with anyone on the Fleet, he was not sure he wanted to see Kurt under the pressure of being bar staff, especially when people were drunk.] ...Maybe we keep him as a back up idea.

[Shrugging it off for now, Remy downed that second drink before pushing away from the bar.] Ok, let's see what I gotta work with. [...On second thought, he grabbed that glass and the bottle. He may need it.]

I think she kept some paperwork over here. [Vash will head out to the kitchen where there are some paperwork pinned up to the wall. Mostly notes about their stock levels, menu options, and some other notes on them.]

It a good start. [Remy for the most knew that, or at least the menu ideas. He's certainly added his own thoughts to them over the time he had worked here. Less so the stock list, unless he was adding items to it they were low on.]

Hope she didn't have 'ny of the other stuff at her ship, 'magine that be well gone by now. [Since stuff did just magically vanish if it wasn't claimed by someone else. Setting down his glass and bottle, Remy headed over to the behind the bar section where Nami tend to work when not bartending. It was the next best place to look. For the most he was really looking for their available budget and how she had set it out. Worse case, he could start from scratch, even funding it all with his own accumulation of credits he's gained since returning to the Fleet.]

I'm sure if we ask her crew won't mind checking just in case. [Vash continues to drink from his glass as he looks around in his attempt to give Remy a hand in his search. Flipping through any bits of paper that look like they could be important.]

Seems a little wrong. [Like hunting through a dead person's stuff without invite. Then again, he's done that before too as a thief, some people just wanted stuff from the recently dead's estate.] Can start from fresh if need to.

[Although,] Ah! [There we go. Picking up a folder of papers from inside one of the draws, Remy sorted through them to see what was inside.] Here we go, more than 'nough to go through. 'll give it a look over 'nd sure we can just keep stuff goin' as normal, 'nd make up some plans for when we hit each planet dependin' on what they supply.

You think so? You think she'd mind if it was to keep the business going smoothly the way she had it set up? [Vash refuses to see Nami as dead. And it wasn't like he was suggesting they paw through her underwear drawer so he doesn't see a problem with it.]

Oh? Found something? [Vash comes over and looks over Remy's shoulder as he goes through the papers.] Thank you, Nami! I think we can do this.

She be a smart fille, sharp mind when comes to money. [And... Remy didn't like to think that way either, though it was too easy to consider it that way. Even if she came back, it might not be 'her', not with the same memories or relationships that had been establish. And that was... sad. Very sad.

He can only hope she is happy back home. Or where ever she may had gone.] Let me grab a seat 'nd look this over. For now we just run everything as normal, maybe look at staff first then can... I donno, just keep the place runnin' the best we can?

I think that sounds like the best sort of action plan to me. [Vash starts to head towards the kitchen.] I'll make us something quick to eat. Hard to think and read on an empty stomach!

Smart thinking. [Also, if they are going to be drinking while they worked, it was smart to line their stomachs. Not much would get done otherwise.

Picking out a table for them, Remy hooked a foot around one of the chairs to pull it out, putting the paper work, bottle, and his glass down before taking a seat. Then going back to grab Vash's glass for him for when he came back. Taking a seat, he started to spread out the papers on the table.]

[After a bit of time Vash will come out with a few hot chicken wings and fries for them to chow down on. He sets the food down and refills their glasses while he's up. And thus they spend the rest of the night looking over paperwork together?]
