Well, just like that, half the patrons have gone off on some mission to Rimbor. I don't envy them. I spent a good portion of my life on Rimbor...and silverale and brothels aside, I'd avoid the stench if I could help.
Too bad that Vidar fellow left, though. He was an interesting sort.
And where is Exnihil been?
< finishes drink >
Look at me. Wondering about the men, when I let three incredibly lovely ladies walk out without saying a word. Perhaps I'm losing my touch...

<The bartender brings over the drink and points to Renly Fox>
<says to herself> ha! I'm not going to drink anything some random guy at a bar gives me! How new does he think I am ... heyyyyyy that guy matches the description of ....
<surreptitiously pours out the drink in a nearby plant. plant wilts and dies.>
<takes a moment and then walks over to Renly Fox's table>
Thanks for the drink. It must be my lucky day.

Not really the intent of the gesture...but okay. It is kind of amusing.
I thought it was my lucky day too when I saw you...until the plant took a death bath. I meant no offense.

I'm Renly Fox, and I'm somewhat new to Legion World. I've been waiting for a Gent named Exnihil but apparently he's a busy man.
Are you one of the famous Legionnaires? It's quite...overwhelming having so many of the galaxies greatest heroes in one place.
<Renly's posture suggests a carefree attitude but to a more trained eye his eyes suggest a clever, insightful demeanor>

Just looking for a rare blend of tobacco that only someone of his skills could provide.
<as he spoke, Reflekto could tell this anecdote amused Renly, as if it was a private joke or an outright lie>
I'd love another drink. Tell me, what does a young heroine like yourself do for fun around here? And will it get us in trouble?

oh you know, making sure pirates mind their manners on Legionworld.
super strength comes in real handy sometimes.
<pauses to make sure Renly Fox gets the hint>
other than that, I just enjoy being outside of a lab ...
<orders a gingerale>
Smoking is bad for you by the way, I heard that somewhere.
What do you know about Rimbor? I'm curious about what Power Boy and the others will find there, and how soon they'll be back.

<having left The Tobacconihiist Smoke Shop, Exnihil arrives at SHAKES bar to blow off some after-work steam. He enters and takes a quick look around the place, but doesn't immediately see anyone he recognizes. There were a lot of new faces on Legion World lately. Well... good. Some new blood was always just the thing to keep things interesting. Just so long as his regular bartender was still on, it was all good. He sidled up to the bar>
Babette: "Khundish vodka martini... up?"
Ex: "Ah... Babette, you always know just the right thing to say to a guy."
<Babette smiles and starts mixing Ex's drink>: "So... your ears must have been buzzing."
Ex: "How's that, now?
Babette <nodding over to the table where Renly and Reflekto are sitting>: "Those two. I could be mistaken, but I could have sworn I heard them say your name a little bit ago."
Ex: "My name? But I didn't see anyone that I recogni..." <squints over at the table> "Well, whattya know. Excuse me, Babette."
<Ex picks up his drink and moves toward Renly's table>

Ah, Mr. Exnihil at last! I'm - dare I say it - hopeful you've come with good news for me.
<Renly's face opens up into a wide grim; however it is more wolfish and dangerous than charming>
I can see you're suddenly recalling the last time we met those years ago. Back then I went by a more colorful moniker.
<back to Reflekto>
Tell me, my dear, are you aware of how influential Exnihil is within the film industry? I imagine he's met all sorts of interesting people.

<sitting down next to Reflekto, and speaking to her first>
..our friend exaggerates. Exnihil Studios is no 30th Century Fox... but we do all right. The name's Exnihil... how you do, my dear?
<Reflekto rolls her eyes... wisely. Ex turns back to Renly>
I did, indeed bring you good tidings. I was able to track down your request, though it took a bit of doing. You'll have to forgive me, though... Mr. Fox... "years ago"? The old noodle isn't what it used to be, but I don't think I remember...
<Renly raises an eyebrow rakishly as Ex stops short, suddenly recognizing him>
...oh, good lord!
"Pirates of the Antarean: Curse of the Black Hole"?!
