As she had suspected patrons continued to fill the bar area at a moderate pace that would no doubt increase drastically as the hours wore on and the sun sank lower outside these steel walls. She couldn't help but wonder how some called this place their home, perhaps it was just her opinion as an outsider but she couldn't imagine living in such an iron trap. Her ramshackle apartment on the edge of town wasn't much, but it's large factory-style windows at least afforded her a view and let the sun and moonlight in. And perhaps other areas of the Ark might offer much the same, what did she know other than the area around the fighting pits dimly lit by the lights that hung above. It wasn't truly her place to wonder or care as she situated herself in front of the bar, focusing instead on her one goal tonight: land a job. This place had to be her best bet, not only did it specifically cater to her kind but the security it provided was something she couldn't help but appreciate. Amongst the crowds she would be harder to find if anyone ever came looking.

Her slender fingers ran over the cool counter of the bar top as the bartender exited back behind the bar to hopefully fulfill her request to speak with the manager, or whoever was in charge around here. She hadn't, however, exactly been expecting to see the young woman who next stepped out from that doorway carting a box of liquor that she left on the counter as her blue eyes homed in directly on her own. Her long curls and slender figure were foreign enough, but the scars that ran across her face were impossible not to notice and for Carolina not to recall that this was exactly the girl she had met within the ship once before. Unable to help herself she fidgeted nervously, pulling a strand of blonde hair that hung from her loose ponytail into her fingers and twirling it round. A nervous tic, but something she hoped would calm her a bit the last thing she wanted tonight was trouble though she doubted what Raven knew of her was enough for that. Still, perhaps it was guilt she felt even though she had never gone through with the job she had been hired for.

Gathering herself she managed a smile as Raven stopped in front of her, her hopes that she wouldn't be immediately recognized dashed instantly as the girl mentioned exactly that. It had been years ago and she had been shifted at the time so it surprised her that she was so easily identified once more, but Weres tended to have a sense of one another so perhaps she should have expected it. It had been a while since she had been around her own kind. Shifting the weight on her slender hips she released the hold on that lock of hair and extended her arm to shake the girl's hand, pink lips parting to respond "Oh, noth-" when a deep voice interrupted her from overhead.

Turning, her blue-green eyes trailed up to the balcony overhead to find a dark-skinned man with a mess of tousled hair and piercing green eyes looking down at them. The same balcony she had errantly found herself on during her last visit to the Ark. The intensity of his gaze made her pause for a moment, his stance and words making it obvious that he was at least one of the persons in charge here that feeling of nervousness crept back into the edges of her mind once more. Attempting to swallow it she reached for the confidence she had once possessed and met the man's gaze as squarely as she could. "There's nothing wrong," she responded, her light voice holding a bit of bite that her intentions could be questioned so quickly upon his arrival. She had barely spoken a word in the establishment and yet he already assumed she was causing trouble? Then again remembering where she was that wasn't such a poor assumption.

She turned her slender shoulders back to Raven, though she didn't wholly turn her back on the man overhead it was easier to concentrate if she didn't focus on him too much. "I just wanted to ask about a job opening at the bar, I noticed the sign." Her delicate features nodded towards the orange-lettered "Help Wanted" sign at the far end of the bar, her bright gaze flicking back to the dark figure on the balcony once more before back to Raven. He was intimidating, perhaps by sheer habit or personality but it was easier to look at the girl behind the bar. "I just got back into town and could use the cash." She rolled her shoulders, hoping to come off as nonchalant despite just how desperate she was for the job, any job at this point.
