San Myshuno

It had been a long week of meetings and empty promises for Bridgette. Nothing seemed to have come from that impromptu meeting with Taeyang, so she wasn’t hung up on it. However, tonight she was going to expand her palette.

Something about that meeting at Symphony still didn’t make sense to her. Why would a bar owner be so worried about corporations disappearing? It’s not like he’d be affected. Ah, but less huge companies means less corpo patronage. She could see why that would be a bad thing for business. Still, making such an aggressive move like that wasn’t really the answer.

Or maybe Taeyang summoned them there for another reason. Maybe he was looking to see if anyone else was acting on this information before he had. That’s more like it. He seemed to be the opportunistic type. I mean after all, he was running one of the biggest bars in town. All types of patrons poured into that place. You don’t run something like that without running a tight ship.

A couple of swipes of her favorite lipstick, then she checked herself in the mirror again. Bridgette didn’t care about petty stocks or corporate espionage. The week was finally over, and she deserved some self love.

Checking her hips in the mirror one last time, she set off.

The Red Velvet Lounge, San My’s Red Light district

San Myshuno boasted a wealth of choices in the Entertainment District. Corpos need a place to let off steam, after all. It’s either get wasted here or spend hours on end at home or in the office typing up papers until the sun rises again. 99% would choose to let loose before going back to the grinder again. Bridgette was one of these people.

Nearly every club knew her by name and outfit. They had tabs under her name, all paid handsomely. Different options lined up for when she wanted. Favorite drinks, tables, songs, you name it. Patrons would dub her the ‘queen of the scene’; what she wanted, she got.

Bridgette had a different game in mind tonight. Normally, she’d arrange a ‘meeting’ then call ahead. But tonight, she decided to show up unannounced. Perhaps the one she was seeking would do the same…

Bridgette: Hey, Sai-nam.

Sai-nam: Mmhmm?

Bridge: Do you guys have any specials for the weekend? Generally speaking.

Sai: Not generally, no. Sometimes we might get requests from patrons which we then try to fulfill with a weekend slot. Were you hoping for someone?

Bridge: I am, but I didn’t want to be pushy.
