[The door is unlocked, and when he enters, he'll find Claudia sitting at her desk, immaculate despite the paperwork in piles around her. She smiles, standing from her chair to approach him with an extended hand.]
Monsieur Rayflo, I have been expecting you. Please, make yourself comfortable.
[Notably, the office is lacking in any particularly red decor, unlike the rest of the club.]
[It's not uncommon for vampires to be old fashioned, but she still seems to appreciate the formality. So many uncouth types in this city. Once her hand is freed, Claudia returns back to her seat behind the desk, poising her hands into a steeple upon its top.]
I'm excited to learn more about you. Is there a particular position you were hoping for, upon being hired?
[ he seats himself across the desk from her, crossing one leg over
the other and leaning back against the chair. ]
I'll admit I don't know too much about Fangtasy, beyond it being designed
to cater to vampires and those with a, ah... Vampire kink. There's rather
little I'm unwilling to do, though--and a great deal I'd be happy to.
[If she's honest, she cares little for the individuals who come in looking to be fed upon. Foolish behavior. But as long as they're paying, she'll accept them as patrons. As long as she, herself, doesn't get too close; Claudia hardly trusts her own self control.]
I see. I'll keep that in mind. Would you consider yourself to have any particular talents?
I've spent centuries being careful not to. [ He keeps it lightly
teasing and amused, gently self-deprecating without sliding into anything
too grim. ] Consider it a result of my making sure I can live the
most ridiculous life possible.
[Claudia, being cynical and generally distrustful of her own kind, is certain that he's purposefully downplaying himself. It makes her wonder just how many layers he may have beneath that outward, easy charm.]
But as long as it's fulfilling for you, I don't see any reason I should criticize.
I appreciate it. So, yeah! Am I hired? Or was there anything else you
needed to ask?
[ He can't quite get a handle on her and what she's looking for,
which is both fascinating and unusual. However, she doesn't seem to mind
him the way he is, and Diva had been the one to suggest he talk to Claudia,
so... He'll carry on as he has. Besides. This sort of light-hearted banter
is comfortable. He genuinely likes it. ]
[She had no intention of rejecting his request for employment, after all, not with Diva having recommended him. Well, there was always the chance he would have severely offended him, but Claudia has yet to encounter anyone bold enough.
She pulls a few sheets of paperwork out of one of her drawers and slides them his way with a pen.]
Just review these. All standard legalities in accordance to the city's business laws. You'll be working nights, of course, but nonetheless your preference on scheduling will be taken into accord.
[ Scooting closer to the desk, he starts reading the contract over;
he's too aware of the hidden peculiarities that may show up in the fine
print. It isn't so much as he thinks it'll be her, so much as he's wary
about what this place might enforce.
He spins the pen between his fingers as he reads, though he flicks
his gaze up with a grin. ]
Haven't been here quite long enough to have any sort of preferences
yet--I'm sure I can work any plans I make around the schedule.
[There shouldn't be anything untoward within the contract, but she nonetheless can appreciate his thoroughness. She'd read every word carefully, as well.]
[No murdering anyone on the premises, boring expectations like that.]
As long as you dress cleanly and I hear no complaints from customers, you're free to conduct yourself as you wish. The appeal of our staff lies in the variety of character.
I can start as early as tonight, if you need me to.
[ It isn't as though his time is in great demand. As much as he
enjoys lazing around, he'll also like having some sort of schedule to set
his life around. ]

[ he meets her halfway across the room, taking her hand and, instead of shaking it, bows over it--very proper, very correct. ]
My thanks. It's a pleasure to properly meet you.

Not exactly, as such.

no subject
I'm very charming.
no subject
How charming?
no subject
[ he leans forward, resting his forearm on the bend of his knee as he winks. ]
How charming will you need me to be?
[ he doesn't have to be attracted to someone to entice them--they just have to be attracted to him. ]
no subject
[He'll do fine, she's sure. But she leans forward, propping her delicate face on her fingertips.]
I was only curious how you'd assess yourself.

I do so enjoy a man with flexibility.

Oh, I'm very flexible.
[ It's reflexive, honestly. He can't quite help himself. ]
no subject
[It is fun, this sort of banter. Not something that she's had many opportunities to indulge in, for one reason or another.]
How any of our patrons will be able to keep their hands off of you, I'm looking forward to see.

[ That makes him laugh as he signs with a flourish. ]
Are there any rules I should be aware of that aren't listed out on the contract? Or anything not a rule, but preferred manner of conduct?

Wonderful. If anything else comes up, I trust you'll inform me? Otherwise... When should I plan to start?

I can start as early as tonight, if you need me to.
[ It isn't as though his time is in great demand. As much as he enjoys lazing around, he'll also like having some sort of schedule to set his life around. ]
no subject
[Her eyes sparkle as she laughs, the expression somehow making her look more vampiric than she has their entire conversation.]
I do appreciate the initiative, but I believe we have plenty of help tonight. Why don't you start tomorrow?
[But...]
Tonight, why not mingle, get to know who you'll be working with and the patrons that you'll be likely to see often?
