He'd been working the regular shift most of the night and was now debating whether or not to simply close and head off to bed or to stay up and see if a certain someone actually showed up to the supposed meeting they were supposed to be having today. There was only one other in the bar anyways, and said person was asleep dozing with his head on the bar and his hand clenched around his drink. Lyall eyed the person fighting off the urge to make some sort of practical joke...Hmmm [/scrolly]

[KARP KARP!]

Iris flung open the bar door and rushed inside, knowing she was half an hour late for their meeting. The woman's long purple hair was pulled back into a ponytail held up with a black Meganium-shaped hairclip. Her dark green, long sleeved dress shirt had only two middle buttons fastened, showing off a fair amount of cleavage, and when she moved right, stomach. Finishing off the outfit was a pair of long black dress pants, with a slit in each leg that went up to the knee, and a pair of heels.

Her belt, holding Pokeballs, was partially hidden by her top. In a holster on her thigh, was a pistol, and on her side was another belt of sorts, holding her throwing knives.

The woman strolled up to the bar, her purple eyes locking on Lyall. "Sorry I'm late, Ly," she whispered. "I couldn't find one of my knives, and you know how I tend to get paranoid. I'm good now though.

He wasn't asleep! >> << >>... After a moment, he relaxed a bit and smirked a bit. "Hah, Iris..." Lyall started but caught himself simply shaking his head and chuckling in the process. After a moment, he reached down under the bar and pulled out what appeared to be some sort of bottle. "Club soda work?" he asked already starting to pour a glass regardless. Though he knew that she didn't drink any sort of hard drinks, Lyall did know that Iris did drink soda. [/scrolly]

[KARP KARP!]

Iris gave a nod. "You know me too well. Not a special occasion or anything, and alcohol doesn't set to well with me. And yet you insist on meeting here," she teased lightly. Sure, Lyall was her boss, and she did respect him, her personality just showed it a little differently.

Taking the glass, she took a sip. "So, what's the order of business?" Finally, she sat at the bar, crossing her legs and looking at him. Her tone had shifted from teasing to serious; she took her job rather seriously when she had to.

"You know I own the place, and it's pretty rebel and Black Knight friendly," he answered back before Iris went on to the order of business. "Well for one, it seems a lot of sqabbling's been going on in the north as a new Duke's taken control... I figure we could probably take down a few of the lesser nobles up there and then take down this newbie," he chuckled a bit to himself. As if it would really be that easy, but there it was, the main idea. "Then again, there is the west too to deal with...." Lyall sighed finding himself suddenly oddly indecisive. There was too much to do and so little time. [/scrolly]

[KARP KARP!]

Iris sighed a little, smiling softly. "Yeah, I know; not that I mind. I was just saying." Her light-purple eyes scanned the practically empty bar. In truth, a place like this was a good meeting place, really.

Her eyes sort of flashed at the mention of the north, in a mixture of hatred and intrigue. "North sounds like a good option. I know the area well. The North is my homeland," she replied, then muttered under her breath, "Though I use the term very loosely." Shaking off the familiar rage she felt towards this subject, she continued. "Besides, I have some...unfinished business with a certain Baron." Sitting back, she sipped her soda.

"Oh him?" he asked already rather sure he knew who the person was. However, he could be wrong... maybe, heh. [/scrolly]

[KARP KARP!]

Iris rolled her eyes, though she had to fight the sinister smirk that tried to make its way across her lips. "Maybe. I mean...why not? In my book, he deserves to die more than any of them. Greedy, selfish, power-hungry. Does Era really need that? So I suggest we start with him, then those like him. And maybe the more...tolerable...ones will surrender the easy way afterwards. If not, it'll be all downhill, right?" By no means was she telling Lyall what to do; she was just telling the way she saw it.

"But really, it's your call."

"It's a thought," he acknowledged with an easy smile before finally sipping his drink and crossing his arms in front of himself before leaning on the bar a bit. "Now what about the west though," he asked putting his elbow on the table and looking sideways at her. "Any news about what the heck is actually happening over there?" he asked. Apparently Marcella had disappeared, but... that was just... odd. [/scrolly]

[KARP KARP!]

Iris shook her head, running a hand through her long purple hair. "None at all. I'm tempted to go digging down there myself. You know, if that's fine by you." She sighed, then smiled a little nervously. "I've been sort of...focused...on the north lately. Don't know why, except a certain someone needs to die..." She shrugged, drinking more soda. "But yeah, I could search West. I need to catch a few more Pokemon, anyway..."

"Anything you're looking for in particular?" he asked with ease. It wasn't like they were entirely getting off subject either, really, and seeing as no one else was there, they could take their time. [/scrolly]

[KARP KARP!]

The Second in Command rubbed her chin. "Hmmm...Actually, I would love a Bisharp." She grinned, finishing off her soda. "But work comes first. Whatever you want me to do, consider it done." The womans' purple eyes sort of twinkled lightly. One hand sort of toyed with her long, purple ponytail.

Didn't... she name her pokemon like a chess board? Well given she was looking for a Bisharp a Bishop Harp, well wasn't that right up her alley? Then again, Lyall wasn't about to ask if that was the reason and make himself sound like an idiot if Iris simply stated that it was becuase it was a strong pokemon. After a few seconds, he found himself snatching up an empty glass from the hanging ones and cleaning it rather out of habit. "Well we won't move too quick just yet. The last thing we need is to run everyone around again," Lyall sweat dropped a little at his own words. That had been a crazed mess if he had ever led one: his first real act as leader and such and such. He'd learned a bit of how to keep hold of things over time though still not up to par with what he wanted. "I think we'll pay the west a visit first seeing as the north's got the summer festival going on. Don't need to scare a bunch of people," he laughed a bit to himself before shaking hi shead again and working if a bit harder on the glass. [/scrolly]

"Of course. What I'm thinking, is, I go out west for a few days. Head around Wharfenfair, get my Bisharp, along with whatever else catches my attention. And along the way, I scope out the area, find what details I can, that sort of thing. No one there will know my true intentions. Hell, unless I want 'em to, no one'll even see me." She smirked, winking slightly at this. [/scrolly]

"You have this down pact," he grinned easily nodding his head a bit more. "Meanwhile, I'll scope out the north a bit, and after say about a week we'll meet back, that work?" he asked. [/scrolly]

"Of course I do, Ly. Though, you're the one who taught me structure. Before, I was just killing people with no purpose but money." She smirked a little more. "Sounds like a plan, 'boss,'"" she teased. "So, that all ya got for me?" [/scrolly]

"Pretty much, not a long meeting is it, heh" he laughed a little glancing at Iris. "Just figured we needed to talk on something before another full Black Knight meeting comes up." Holding back a yawn, Lyall looked at the clock a moment before looking back. "Ya know the Castle up the street is supposed to have Pawniard and Bisharp." [/scrolly]

She flashed an almost sadistic grin at this. "Thanks for the tip, Ly." Standing to her feet, she added. "Well, if that's it, I'll see you in a week. You know, if you can wait that long." The last part, she added teasingly; she loved to mess with him like that, just to see his reaction. Though, deep down, in truth, she didn't know if she could go that long. Okay, she knew she could, but still. [/scrolly]

Era Castle, once home to royalty and grounds of knight training was now nothing but ruins. It probably hurt some, yet that was not the case for Lyall. "Ya don't want to stay and finish your drink?" he halfheartedly teased raising his eyebrow a little as though to try and act more serious. [/scrolly]

As slowly as she could, she lifted the glass to her lips, drinking while trying to make it last. After about a minute, it was empty, and she set the glass back on the bar. "Happy?" she asked with a wink, looking him in the eyes. [/scrolly]
