Joachim's Inn

OOC Can we pause this? I'm trying to think of how best to proceed

ooc of course, but just so you know...krystal will not accept an aplogy from him

After she left, Joachim tried to stay angry. She was robbing him. She deserved to be kicked out and good riddance to her... 

But he found he couldn't even think of his life without her in it.

"Sorry buddy," Teivel (FINALLY looked it back up) patted his cousins shoulders, "Bitches be crazy..."

Joachim knocked his arm off his shoulder, "She ain't no bitch! Her name is Krystal." He defended adamantly. 

"Look boy, I know you and her are friends, but stealin' from you, means she was playing you. Best to drop it and move on..."

"Yeah I know... but still, why would she make this place all legal and stuff just to do this?"

"To blindside you obviously."

"Yeah but she was always like that, there was no signals that said I'm due for some cash... ah fuck it... " Joachim took out his pipe and started to smoke it, needing to calm himself from all of this commotion that he was finding hard to believe. Sure the evidence was there, but evidence always gets tampered with.

ooc -whishles innocently.- (also, im skipping a few days)

Krystal had been back. once. In the middle of the night, when she knew Joachim would either be asleep or drowning his sorrows.
Silently, she had stripped her room of anything she owned, leaving behind only the black and pink wall paper.
and then she had dissapeared- no one had seen her since.

Joachim went back into her room one day, finding it stripped barren. And... it hurt inside to see it.

Lucy (the bar maid...i think thats what i called her. lol) walked up behind him. 'Can i speak my mind you you? without getting into troublle?'

"What? Yeah yeah go ahead..." He took a seat, lighting up his pipe, trying to act like nothing was happening.

'Your an idiot' she frowned 'Sorry. I mean. im not sorry but its rue. but then its true.'

"The fuck do you mean?"

'Look at yourself. It doesnt take a genius to see you made a mistake.'

"Hey, the damn coin was in her pocket! She was stealin' from us, I kicked her out!"

'She knew about it! why would she keep it if she knew?'

"maybe she messed up!"

Lucy snorts. 'of course, because Krystal really messes everything up.'

"hey! Don't backtalk me got it?!

The girl grins. 'You know im right. thats why your getting grumpy.'

"You shut the hell up and get me some money or you find your ass on the streets with her!"

'And you wonder why she left.' Lucy shook her head. 'Fine. Deal with this yourself, but just remember...This is Krystal, Joachim. You know her. she woulnt even think of ever hurting you. I know that, im pretty sure everyone who works here does.'

"But she did... by leaving."

'And why was that? Because you upset her. You blame her. you told her to leave.'

"I know that! But I was hoping at least for a 'Hey wait I can prove it wasn't me, I can find the guy who did it. I need this place!' I don't know, just feels nice to be needed..."

Lucy just stares at him, her foot tapping quietly on the floor

"what?!"

'THnk about it, joachim. what did you just say? now think about how she feels.'

"Well what can I do? Who else could've been stealing?"
