OOC: this is the reason to post waiting and stuff like that!

Tifa brought back another helping of eggs and sausage, putting it in front of the hero she smiled shyly at the charismatic lug.  "Tee-hee, here's your order sir."

"Well, you two finish up. I'm going back outside with Ginn, isn't like I need to eat." Cherry commented as she got up, blowing a stray lock of gray hair out of her eyes.

"When you two are done, just come outside, okay?"

So saying, she headed outside.

[Ginnezumusha]

Ginn was standing there, looking exactly as he did when Cherry left, the only noticable difference being a shorter cigarette.

"Mmm, Cherry, I've been meaning to ask you... who was the guy that recommended this place to you?"

[Anonymous]

"Symoon Jyam, he's the head of the merchant guild. Why do you want to know?" Cherry calmly asked.

"Thinking of asking him for any jobs? We do need the funds, unfortunately." She sighed, running her hand through her hair.

[Ginnezumusha]

"Yeah, he's our biggest in right now, and it sure beats running around the city looking for random odd jobs.  Of course, we only have 3 days to spare, so it'll have to be pretty quick.  Could you... talk to him about it for me?"

[Anonymous]

"Of course I will. I hardly want to starve out in the street." Cherry got a strange gleam in her eyes at that, but she quickly shrugged.

"If he'll listen, I'll speak."

[Ginnezumusha]

"Excellent.  Since he's the head of the merchant's guild, he should be pretty well known.  Lets go see if the innkeeper knows his current whereabouts."

Ginn flicked his cigarette down, and turned into the inn.

"Right." Cherry followed after Ginn as the both of them walked up to Ocra's desk.

Reaching over, she sharply rapped on his desk three times before hurriedly asking.

"Do you happen to know where the head of the merchant's guild lives? We need to talk to him about a..business proposition."

[Dracos]

"Ol' Jyam.  Of course I do.  He's a major customer.  He lives up town in the wealthier section of town.  Not more than ten minutes walk from here." *smiles cunningly* "For a gold piece I'll have one of my boys show ye the way."

Cherry carefully considered her and Ginn's choices. They could find it on their own, but this was a port city. Typically filled with all manner of ruffians and whatnot.

But she also didn't like the smile on Ocra's face. Reminded her too much of her own smiles, that it did. Ultimately, she had to give up one of her hard earned gold pieces to the man.

"Now, we'd like our guide, please." She said in a carefully controlled tone.

She'd make it back...

She'd make it back...

She'd soon see that gold piece's twin..and possibly all its other relatives.

Soon...

[Dracos]

Taking the gold piece, Ocra smiled.  "TAAAAAAAAARG!"

From behind him a scruffy young lad, roughly Cherry's age walked out.  He has a short orange beard and messy short orange hair.  Dressed in a light blue shirt and some grey pants, he had a sharp gleam in his black eyes.

"Targ, guide this lady to Jyam's." Ocra commanded.

"Yes Ocra." The boy nodded and turned to Cherry.  "Are you ready to go now?"

"We're as ready as we'll ever be." Cherry said, lightly shrugging. "Lead the way."

[Dracos]

Targ smiled and slipped out the door, holding it open just long enough for Cherry to follow behind him.  With a swift gait he moved through the early morning crowds, leading the way from the port section to the nearby wealthier area of town.  It was a short walk.  Syam didn't make his wealth by not keeping a close eye on the ports.  Stopping before a modest dwelling, compared to some of the more extravagant ones nearby, Targ turned to his employer.  "Here you are m'am.  Happy ta be of service."  With a rougish grin he strode back the other way.

Cherry crossed her arms over her chest as she considered the home. Quietly sighed, she turned to Ginn.

"Shall we?" Not waiting for Ginn's response, she made her way to the entrance and swiftly knocked on the door thrice before waiting for a response.

[Dracos]

The large wood door opened, revealing a young maid in black livery behind it.  "Hello.  This is the Jyam Residence.  Do you have an appointment with master Jyam?"
