Bruce returns the nod in kind as Alister exits the room, the Mage had not made the best first impression on him in the entryway but seemed to be not all that bad (especially when compared to others Bruce could mention). With Alister's departure Bruce turns his full attention to Mike, "Excellent, I really cant tell you how much i appreciate this". Looking around the room Bruce takes in the private area, studying the wallpaper and other such bits of decoration. Like the main body of the shop it was much to much for his tastes. "So...how long have you been here, in town i mean", mentally Bruce rolled his eyes at his piss-poor attempt at small talk, something he was never any good at.
