Looking up at the unassuming bar called The Fox Hole, Fe stood there just tapping her foot rather impatiently on the pavement and rolling her eyes while thinking it had better be nicer inside that out, cause out was not anything special and the place did not look like it attracted more than the random passerby.

Fe Glaux had heard things, good things about the place and its owner. Some foxy fellow named Jericho, though she had to smile at her own bad pun since Jericho was, supposedly, a fox, and not just in the ... hey, good-looking way, but in the real god-like way.

Something she had to admit that as a Sirin, she found both intriguing and appealing to her own owl-like nature. 'Weren't the two creatures naturally rivals or something in nature?' she thought for a moment with a small frown before shrugging mentally. Fe had no clue to be honest, since she didn't hunt even though she ate fresh meat, and wasn't a fan at all of getting dirty - especially outside or in the forest or wherever wild animals supposedly lived.

"Okay, well, here goes nothing," Fe said to herself as she ran her hands through her hair and fluffed it up a bit and then straightened her top, adjusting herself and her assets before she entered the bar wearing red high heels, a lowcut dark red top, and tight black jeans that showed off her long legs nicely.

Stopping as soon as she entered, Fe cocked an eyebrow at what she was seeing. The place was definitely nicer, way nicer than its facade. It was a place she could definitely see herself singing in. Glancing around, she then saw a waitress and asked her if Mr. Jericho was in and if they were looking for a singer.

Jericho was in his office reading over a few papers. Mostly making sure he was getting his orders in, checking people's pay and other things. It was mostly just a facade though since he was really just planning to sneak in a smoke. Despite being the owner of a smoke lounge, Jericho still didn't smoke in public and around people. He resided to the privacy of his office for such things.

Though before he could even light his pipe there was a knock on the door. It was one of the waitresses, Elizabeth. He gave her a smile and waved to her. She informed him of the visitor who was asking for him who was some lady who didn't look like a regular. "Hmm" Jericho scratched his chin as he eyed Elizabeth. He had a few visitors who usually came because they seeked power or something. That was his assumption at the moment anyway. "Ah well bring her in!"
Jericho's office pretty much was like the rest of the lounge. The floor seemed to be grass, there were all sorts of flowers and plants everywhere, and his desk was basically like a giant fallen log turned into a table. Not saying his office was fancy but, it was indeed fancy.

While Fe waited, she took advantage of the time to wander around a little to take a small, but very interested peek at the place. The bar was decorated, surprisingly, like a forest, more modern than a forest but a forest just the same. And while Fe would never have willingly entered a forest just because of the getting dirt on her shoe factor, she found that this place actually struck a chord with her... strange as that may have been since she was more the concrete jungle type - or so she had thought.

When the waitress came back and told Fe to follow her that Jericho would see her, she followed her in silence, quietly impressed by her surroundings, despite all her preconceived notions about nature and dark dirty forests.

"Mr. Jericho Fox?" Fe asked, thoroughly thrown off her game now when the waitress showed her into an office which was, once again, a total surprise. Glancing down at her feet, Fe didn't know what to think about the grass under her as her heels sunk deep into as she walked forward.

"My name is Fe, Fe Glaux, and I was wondering if you are hiring singers?" she said as she regarded him openly, pleasantly surprised that Jericho was indeed a handsome looking fox, well, sort of.

"Hello Hello, Welcome to The Fox Hole." Jericho was as cheerful as ever when it comes to meeting new people. He got up from his seat , revealing his full height, and reached out his hand for Fe to be able to shake as his lips curled into a smile. "You can just call me Jericho, Ms. Glaux. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Once all the introductions was done, Jericho moved around the table to pull back the chair for Fe before sitting back down into his. "Take a seat, no need to just stand there."

Once Jericho was back in his owm seat he eyed Fe. She wanted a job here as a singer? Well that was certainly a new one. "Sadly, I am not hiring singers sadly but..." His tail twitched behind him as he continued to watch Fe. He actually never thought about hiring a singer nor did he think of ever needing one for the place. "You gave me a wonderful idea though! I suppose hiring a singer can help liven the place up a bit. I just never fully thought about that, hm."

Jericho smiled some more just thinking about the idea. If he hired a good singer he could probably attract more customers to The Fox Hole.

After shaking Jericho's hand, Fe took a seat, surprised actually at his height. She had not quite expected that, in fact, none of anything was quite as she expected it to be and found herself at a bit of a loss for the moment. Her usual bravado, and even snarky thoughts, seemed to have been left somewhere between Jericho's office and the Strip.

Listening politely, sitting upright with her legs crossed, Fe was not surprised to hear they didn't have a singer. That was partly the reason she had come here, in hopes of convincing by asking or planting a seed. Live entertainment was usually a draw for a bar, especially if the singing was good and adaptable to the environment, both of which Fe knew she could easily offer. She could also be as classy or as trashy as was needed, depending on the crowd the bar wanted to draw.

Watching Jericho change his mind almost immediately, made Fe smile as she leant forward on chair and cupped her one knee, "I can sing almost any style you want, though my own personal style is more indie rock," she explained. "I also have a good vocal range if that helps. And I can provide my own costumes and wardrobe if such a thing is required."

"Well this is a smoke lounge & bar. Most of the people who come in here probably wouldn't care too much about what you sing. They would be too busy getting drunk or high afterall." Jericho snickered to himself a bit.

"Indie rock?" Jericho leaned back into his seat. He was honestly fine with whatever genre but it wasn't about him it was more about the customers. Ms. Glaux was indeed selling herself a good pitch. She had good range and could do her own wardrobe. Jericho still wasn't fully sold yet. He haven't heard her even sing yet and before he got too deep into this he needed to know a few things about Ms. Glaux here. "Do you mind telling me about yourself? Why do you want this job here? Past working history, likes and dislikes, where do you see yourself in twenty years and..."

His ears twitched a bit as he leaned back closer to Fe. "Any criminal history that I should be aware about?" He didn't give her an intimidating stare it just....kinda looked intimidating because he was smiling and his teeth were showing.

Fe had to chuckle, she had, more times than she cared to admit, sung to drunken crowds and while they weren't her favourite audience, she had to admit she had received some of the nicest compliments and sometimes gifts from drunken patrons.

"Well, I am a Sirin if you must know," she started as she adjusted herself, sitting up straighter as she gazed at Jericho, "I am studying music part-time and have sung at ..." here she named a few other popular bars and restaurants in town, "Long term, I hope to sing professionally, record an album, become famous, maybe even a household name..." she grinned, knowing she sounded overly ambitious and that her goals might be unattainable in most people's minds.

"And why do I want to work here," she said, "well, because The Fox Hole has the reputation for offering an experience different to most bars on the island. And I'm very interested in being part of something unique. People remember singers from places like The Fox Hole more than they do from a place like the Green Hat." she told him truthfully.

"Oh, and no, I don't have a criminal record... yet," she remarked coyly.

He tapped his chin a bit. She was a Sirin? That was interesting to note and kinda explained her reasoning to be a singer.
"Well it seems you have some good goals set for yourself. Goals that I am positive that you can achieve one day." Well he assumed she could. Jericho was always the positive motivator.

Jericho wasn't really sure what he wanted to hear from her answer about working here of all places. When she did tell him, he couldn't help but chuckle a bit. "So a unique experience? Yes I guess at a place like this and with the right advertisement you could turn a few heads, get the attention you want." Jericho had no concerns about any form of competition from the other bars. The island was big enough for all them to have a good flow of customers afterall.
It was good she didn't have a criminal record yet at least. "Most workers here have some record of some sorts. I just would like that any criminal activity be kept away from this place." Jericho's smile never left his face despite how serious he was being.

Jericho got up from his seat and walked around his desk heading to the door of his office. "Would you like to take a tour?"

"Of course, I totally understand," Fe said with a tiny nod at his comment about wanting to keep any criminal activity at a distance. And not at all surprised to hear that a lot of his employees had records of some sort. It seemed like a thing in the bar nightclub industry.

When Jericho asked if she'd like a tour of the place, Fe stood up and followed him. "Of course," she said, "I'd love to see The Fox Hole," she admitted, more than a little curious now to see what the rest of the bar was actually like.

"You are open all hours, right?" she asked him, now remembering seeing a sign somewhere stating a 24-hour policy.

Jericho did a low waving motion with his hand and as a result a nimbus cloud was formed. "Can't have a tour without a fancy ride." He snickered at Fe before helping her onto the nimbus cloud if she wanted.
The cloud was big enough for both of them to sit on so there was no need of worrying about who was going to ride it.

Anyway, the first stop was the bar which was basically outside his office. "I'm sure you have checked out the bar already when you came in." The cloud floated them around the bar as Jericho waved to a few staff and customers. In a few moments they came to a stop in probably the most open area on this floor. "I don't have a stage but we can use this space here for you. It is open enough and everyone can see you from here all the way to the back." Jericho made a few gestures with his hands to put emphasize his words.

"I can get a spotlight set up and maybe a few other things."
