McKenna
"Well, I suppose, sure." The clerk said. "You got a datachip? Or a forwarding e-mail? Any other catalogues you want? We're having a sale, right now, if you want." He points to a sign showing discounts for certain order volumes and companies.
Jessica
"I'm retiring soon, sweetie." Said the older woman. "Odds are, before you get the custom work to me. Unless you have something you can hand over now, I'm going to have to pass on these nest eggs."
Xavier/Mensk
The pair are seated at a table, with Xavier waiting for Mensk to talk to him.
Foreman
Tawfeek stood next to Foreman at the bar. "I swear, there were women dancing here last time I came."

" Uhh, yeah, I do." McKenna dug into her purse and came out with both a datachip and one of her old business cards. Taking out a pen, she scratched out her old work address, but there was still a public freelink address on it she could access from any starport with her shipboard terminal. " Put it all on that chip then. I'll have a look back on board. Thanks." she smiled plesantly to the clerk.

"No doubt, with all the ships passing through here. Chances of some females are pretty good. Just luck of the draw probably. So boss where we headed next," Foreman asks before taking a sip of his beer.

Jessica smiles in an 'Aw, shucks' kind of way. "Unfortunately, I didn't bring anything with me, as I wasn't expecting to have to trade any of my products. If it's all right with you, I'll take the box of parts now and I can head back to the ship to see what I have laying around and come back. If you give me some kind of an idea of what you are interested in, it would help narrow things down."

"What do they have on tap here?" Mengsk asked looking at the patrons around him.

"To be honest I am not sure. I just usually when I come here order the house beer on tap and that seems to satisfy me!" Xavier responds to the person in front of him. "By the way the name is Xavier." As he puts out his hand for the greeting.

"Xavier, Mengsk." he shook hands. He guaged him carefully enough but did hid best not to be rude.
"Say what line of work are you into?" he asked hoping to find some sort common ground.

Jessica
"Well, if that's all you can afford, certainly." Said the contact. "Will you transfer it yourself, or would you like it delivered? What ship are you on now, anyways?"
McKenna
All that convoluted stuff to say she could access her old work address through the web, huh? "Alright." Said the clerk, and slid the chip in to give it a try. "Come this way often?"
Foreman
"Simple. First, the Earth colony centre in Texas, then Mars. We'll see after that."Tawfeek said.
Mensk/Xavier
Still sitting with the not-so-overpoweringly thumpy music.

"Well Mengsk, I am an engineer and was informed that I would be meeting with you to see about a job the Captain offered. Sort of a secondary interview to see if we get along and for you to evaluate me."

"So your the new guy..." he grinned, "I take you have your engineering qualifycations...Well you like beer...what sports do you follow?" Mengsk orders a house beer.

Jessica grins as she replies, "If it can delivered, that would be greatly appreciated. I'm currenly on 'The Galaxy with Tawfeek. Raising an eyebrow, she asks "You never answered my question about a possible trade? I'm sure I have something on my ship that you might be interested in, if you give me an idea of something you are looking for."

"Um sports, never been a huge fan of watching them, I mean I do not mind but never been an all time favorite of mine. And for engineering qualifications, yes I have plenty of those. Anything specific you would like to know?"

"Sounds good. Hey cap, whatever made you want to run a freighter?"

(she doesn't know if she can. Hence the freenet account she uses) " not really, " McKenna replied," I just signed on to crew one of the freighters docked here. the Galaxy."

McKenna
"The ship that pulled in this afternoon?" Asked the clerk. "Planning on being a while?"
Jessica
"Well, It'ld be a risk, but I know someone who comes through who tends to like heavier weapons." Says her contact. "Higher calibres. If you have it."
Foreman
"Same reason as you, I guess." Tawfeek says, taking a small swig of his beer. "Needed the income. Plus, more freedom in the Galaxy. Why aren't you still in the military?"
Mensk/Xavier
Chat away!
