Private Finished The trick to forgetting the big picture is to look at everything close-up

Yoka arched an eyebrow. Okay, first time he was hearing about them. That meant that, at some point, she was going to be cooking this guy pancakes. Maybe that's what she'd do for the staff next: a pancake appreciation day.

But that brought her to a follow-up question.

"What about waffles? Or...oh god, crepes?" she rolled the French off her tongue easily. She wanted to ask, what do you eat, but that would be rude.

"Okay, so, you can start when you would like in the next two weeks," Yoka explained. She looked serious but then her expression broke into a smile. "But there's a condition for your hiring. You must try pancakes first. Does this sound fair?"

"No," Yoka said. "There's no need to hold off signing. Just let me know what day you intend to start, and I'll have pancakes waiting for you."

She laughed then and took another sip of her drink.

She was relaxed now, especially since the formal decision had been made. It was simply up to him to call and tell her the day. He interested her, and Yoka liked to be interested. She said, "Unless you have any questions for me?"

"Right, Right," Yoka said. She picked herself up from the table and motioned for him to follow her. Yoka made her way to the center of the bar, where she slipped between a surprisingly disguised slip inbetween the shelves. It wasn't magic, just an optical illusion. She motioned for Devias to follow her.

Inside the center of the rounded bar was the one-way mirrors that allowed whoever was inside to see out. There was a rounded staircase that went up to the office that allowed Yoka a 360 view of the club, and a ramp that went down into the dancer's area.

"So, mostly, the dancers area leads connects to a few tunnels. one goes across the street, to the Asian Fusion restaurant across the street. You can enter from there if you choose, or manifest or portal right here," Yoka explained. There are doors that are marked out to stages. Most of the times when there's an issue, we get the dancer back to the downstairs room. There's a private room off to the side for examinations, procedures, what have you. We can have it stocked with whatever you need for your shift."

Yoka thought about something else and then said, "We also have a locker for you here. I'll get you a key for your first day."

As for the onsen...that would require a bit of prep work.

"It's a bit of a drive, or a hike, as it's in the woods," Yoka explained. "Schedule a day with me and I'd be delighted to have you there as well."

She didn't need to keep him off floor there, for one thing.

Yoka considered the dates. She pulled out her mobile phone and opened up the calendar app, which she had to admit that she liked. She'd used other electronics for this before, but thank god for smart phones. It was better than having to carry around an actual planner, which she still did out of habit.

"Friday morning can work," she said. "If you're so inclined, you're more than welcome to even test out the services and to see what they're like."

Yoka could now assure that everything had been tested to the fullest extent, and she was reasonably certain there would be no more disasters like the one with Murphy. Hell, maybe she'd have to bring Devias along the next time she took Murphy....assuming he'd even go back.

"I'm looking forward to working with you," Yoka said. She extended her hand for a shake, and then laughed. "Normally now I'd give you a key, but I don't think you'll need one."
