[Okay, that's enough adjusting for the time being. Time is money, and Azul needs money.

And to start building a network.]

What jobs might be available for a young man with experience in the restaurant business? I don't mean waiting tables, I mean running the business. Or, even better, what sorts of restaurants and eateries is this place lacking?

[Could he have just wandered around and figured this out on his own? Sure, but this way he knows what people actually want and not just want's missing.]

I suspect that there are far more interested than seen. [She can think of three offhand who might want to dine at such a place.]

[dottedline]

Oh? Unfortunately, I can't take the word of a woman I've only just met, no matter how charming she seems.

[beautyrest]

Certainly fair, I suppose. But you did ask and I am only trying to help. But forgive me for not introducing myself. My name is Aurora.

[dottedline]

Azul Ashengrotto. And it isn't that I don't believe you, I just like to hear things for myself.

[beautyrest]

A pleasure, Azul. I can understand that sentiment well, my Aunt Merryweather is quite the same. My Aunt Flora is too, actually.

[dottedline]

Sensible women. But those other people you implied who might be interested in fine dining--do you know their names so I can ask them myself?

[beautyrest]

Infinitely so. Well, one, in particular, is named Hikaru. We spoke very briefly but he had very refined taste.

[dottedline]

Do you know where I can find him, or is he likely to just pop out of the woodwork, so to speak?

[beautyrest]

It is my understanding that you can contact him over this device, though I am unused to the act myself.

[dottedline]

Well, it shouldn't be too hard to find someone named Hikaru. That's not a terribly common name...

[Hopefully, anyway.]

[beautyrest]

Please let me know how it goes, Azul. I wish you the very best of luck with your restaurant. I shall have to come to pay patronage once it is up and running.
