All that fuss

**Thistle** · Jun 13th, 2009 12:10 AM

Corbin realised he was too used to working in a more casual environment as a janitor. Or the cook might just be a jerk. Either way he'd have to adjust.
Corbin was slightly disappointed as the man left. The way the conversation was heading he thought he might have been able to get some angry glamour out of him. Oh well.
Corbin thought briefly of breaking into Vivian's office to leave a note but that didn't seem a very good way to "adjust", even if it would probably be faster.
He gave a half smile to John. "Not very helpful. Front desk can probably get us some information. If we're lucky we can leave a message with one of the other sovreigns or the Vizer. You want to talk this time? It would probably save a couple rings of the bell." The half smile faded a second too fast.

John shrugged. 'Sure. We might get somewhere faster that way." He said as he jerked his head back towards the back door, neck making that notable creak that plauged him.

Corbin follows John out and around the hotel building. It seemed like they could have gotten to the front faster by going through the building. Of course that was acting like they worked there, so he didn't say anything. The front entrance was much more glamourous. Corbin thought it was overdone.
Still following behind John, they went up to the front desk and Corbin moved over to the side. There was a bell, so Corbin rang it. It had a chime like a mantle clock.

As soon as they reached the lobby, John just stood there with his arms crossed. He hoped they would get somewhere faster than talking to the chiefs here.

Corbin rang the bell some more when no one came. To him it sounded like it got deeper each time. It got lower and more resounding till it was like a grandfather clock. The sound aroused strange feeling of chill and numbness. The sensation was at once familiar but distant. Corbin wanted more of it, even though it was uncomfortable. He kept sounding the bell. Soon it was a the tolling of a church bell. DOOM! DOOM! DOOM! it rang. He was frozen in a reptative state staring wide eyed at the bell, when he finally recognized the feeling. The bells of the Tower rang such when the Lady approached. Once he realised it, suddenly it switched back to the tiny tin vibration of before.
Corbin stopped pressing the bell.

John was growing irritated with Corbins sudden need to bang the bell to oblivion. Not just because it was annoying, but because it was ringing in some bad memories he didn't want to think about right now. Live for the now, do everything you can in life. Worry about the Old Man when he does decide to show his face. He though untill Corbin finally stopped. He seemed to relaxe a little and continued to wait.

~Narration~

All the bell ringing does is bring out security. With rather large batons. "Would you like me to explain why you should leave now in a polite, or painful manner?"

This was becoming more trouble than it was worth, when he could just sneak in unnoticed to see Vivian. It was getting tedious running into unhelpful people. The ringing of the bell had made things more.. unnerving as well. In total, Corbin didn't feel like the completetion of the task was worth the effort being put in it.
Still he realised he must have seemed rude and angry from his actions, so he put on that emotion "I just wanted some fucking service but apparently this high class hotel," he gestured out to the foyer "can't manage that."
He added firm planting of the feet as he walked off to indicate more rage he didn't feel. He exited the building and vanished himself into the morning pedestrian traffic and smaller streets, changing his stride as he went. If the security managed to look back at the counter, they might notice the bell had disappeared at some point. It had interested him.

John was left standing there, pinching the bridge of his nose as though he was starting to suffer a headach. He was a step or two away from where Corbin stood. It was a better idea to look like he had noting to do with the Wizened than get beaten up by security. "I still Have no idea why I was pared up with him. Navaja was never that irritable as far as I could tell.[/i]
