Band Meeting

[adam_balister]

Who: Adam, Gideon, Oz, Malone, Eliza, Wolf, & staff and other patrons of the Bronze,
When: Thursday Night
Where: The Bronze, upstairs in the loft section for privacy and the ability to talk over the music.

It was time to discuss band business. With the way Gideon was working recruiting people, it seemed very plausible that things would be falling into

Adam's eyes fell to Gideon's hand on his leg. The simple gesture immediately seemed to calm his nerves. His legs ceased it's movements and he even let out a soft sigh, shoulders relaxing some. A nervous chuckle came from the vampire. "What is it with you and Albuquerque? Did you watch too many Bugs Bunny cartoons as a kid or something?" Adam was joking around as usual. Good sign that he was less nervous.

"I suppose you got a point" Adam replied then suddenly stood up. He went to the railing and peered over it at the crowd that had formed below in the main area of the club. "I swear if no one shows up, I'm killing this whole band idea" Adam muttered lowly.

Eliza grimaced and slipped through the doors into the loud shadows. She wasn't one for darkness, finding it made it all the more easier for her to trip over or run into things, something she was already a pro at in the light.

She was also late. And wearing a skirt. Dinner with her father and his new girlfriend had been...well, there were better things to think about.

Tucking a few fallen locks behind her ear, she skimmed the place for the stairs and made a beeline for the second floor. She took them at a rather enthusiastic gallop, arriving at the landing breathless and slightly woozy.

She wiggled her fingers and sheepishly sighed a hello.

"Sorry I'm late."

[oz_fest]

Oz had already been on his way upstairs when Adam looked over the railing. He caught sight of the two and made his way over to the table.

"Hey," he greeted, talkative as ever.

[adam_balister]

Just as Adam had muttered the words, two of the others showed up. He actually breathed a low sigh of relief as he addressed them both together. "Hey guys. Glad you could make it. We're just...waiting on one other I think" Adam looked to Gideon as if to get conformation on that.

[eliza_morely]

Eliza bit her lip, pulling it into her mouth, and glanced at the other three.

"Who else are we waiting on?"

She felt slightly foolish, not knowing everyone who made up the band, but she was never one with names, or making friends. She crossed the landing and snagged an armchair opposite the railing, folding her feet under her and fanning her skirt over her pale legs.

[adam_balister]

It looked like everyone was finally there. That certainly had to be a miracle in itself. Adam turned to face the other while they waited for the newcomers to join them in the loft.

[mi_malone]

Malone headed up into the loft with Wolf, and settled a small distance apart from the group- close enough that he could hear what was going on, but far enough that he didn't feel crowded.

"Hi band," he said shyly.

[eliza_morely]

Eliza grinned and waved from her chair, waiting for a more opportune time to introduce herself.

She thought the band a motley crew, but found herself thankful in a way. At least it would be fun.

She hoped.

[adam_balister]

Adam returned to his seat next to Gideon, taking the same posture as he had. He held a half smile on his face and finally addressed everyone.

"Okay, so...I called this meeting for a two specific reasons. First, so everyone can get to know each other better. If we don't mesh well, the band will never work. And hell, I don't even know all of your names. Also, we really need a name for the band. I think once we have a name, it will sort of make it all official, ya know?"

[eliza_morely]

"Yeah, and I could design a logo!" Eliza piped in, hopeful. She bit her lip then, her cheeks flushing as she realized the desperation in her statement. With no useful musicality, she felt left to market all her other skills.

"But a name, yeah, that would be good." She grimaced, her lack of social skills becoming even more apparent. She sighed.

"I'm Eliza," she mumbled, with a sheepish wave of her hand and a glance around the group.

[adam_balister]

Adam lifted a hand to Eliza and nodded. "Yeah, I remember your name. From when we met at Sid's. And if we decide on a name tonight, it would be killer if you could design a logo or something."

Adam then looked to Oz, pointing at him. "I vaguely remember you, but I think...isn't your name Oz?"

[oz_fest]

Oz remembered them all (with the exception of the new guy - whom he greeted with a "Hey") from the original introductions. But maybe he was the only one who'd not been caught up in whatever drama had been going on that night. He lifted his hand in a motionless wave. "That's me."
