Kitchen, bookie time!

[paysdelamour]

[Here is Francis, holding a plain manila envelope and a notebook tucked into his apron, keeping a careful watch from the kitchen on the proceedings, and that lovely redhead in the front row on the bride's side. But anyone that approaches him will be able to bet - yes, bet - on how quickly the bride and groom will end up splitting. No bets over $300 will be accepted, though, Francis doesn't want to get caught carrying around more than about $3000. But what goes on in the kitchen stays in the kitchen, so keep your traps shut, people.

Also, have some commentary with France about the wedding if you place a bet!]

(( ooc: Here's how betting works, you bet on a specific month marker, so something like "two months", "six months", "one year" (though anyone that takes that bet is going to have France laughing in their face). If the, erm, "happily" wedded couple splits up before a marker, the claimant of that marker wins the bet, netting them 200% of their original bet. So if they groom and bride split up in two months and two weeks, the claimant of the third month marker would win the bet; fourth and fifth wouldn't because they didn't guess close enough.

The rest of the money goes to France, who will use it to everyone's benefit, like buying nicer couches for the break room or a little mini-fridge or throwing a party later or something. Don't worry, he won't keep much of it. ;)

Death of the bride/groom counts as a draw for everyone and all money will be refunded. You may bet on multiple markers but your betting total cannot exceed $300. Also, you can have your friends get in on this too if they happen to give you the money for it, just try to keep it hush hush; this is not really condoned by Raul (or by the bride I'm sure). ))

[One would think Veser would have learned his lesson about gambling.

Nope. In between his waiter duties and trying to score dates with members of the wedding party he's wasting a few minutes with Francis.]

I've got $50 that says they'll last three months, three and a half at the most.

[It's all right, if you don't get a date with one of those ladies, you can always take Francis home. Rrrrowr~]

A frugal choice. [With a smirk, he draws out the envelope and the notebook, scribbling in his still surprisingly neat handwriting - "Veser", "50,00", "3 mos". Then he offers out the envelope for Veser to stick his money into.]

So how are you enjoying the wedding, chéri?

[No promises but we'll see. He slips the cash, all of it tips, into the envelope.]

It's okay. I'd probably be having more fun if I wasn't just passing out drinks and food but I'm not complaining about all the bridesmaids wearing pretty much nothing.

[Francis gives a little nod and tucks the envelope into his apron again.]

And I'm sure you're getting some fantastic tips, out there. [In more ways than one ohoho~ Francis hasn't gotten any, he's not been allowed to leave the kitchen, even if he wants to hit on the pretty ladies >:]
