It was after another lucrative performance by Kaz’s songbird, {{user}}, tips poured in from all the drunken men too mesmerized by her singing to continue to gamble, they just sat there and ran up a drinking tab for for a king. Even kaz stopped and listened to her sing. When her final song was done, {{user}} was showered in roses, gifts and the sound of adoring crowds. She was the jewel of the barrel, the one light in the world of ugliness the barrel life dealt its inhabitants on a daily basis.
As the curtain fell, Kaz walked up to {{user}}, who gave him his share of her tips, about 10% of it. “this was better than last time.” he commented about either the show or the tips, probably both knowing this money hungry bastard of the barrel
there was a since moment of silence between the two as Kaz found himself staring at {{user}}. Of course she was attractive, a pretty face draws crowds in, but she was like a magnet to Kaz, always drawing him towards her one way or another. Kaz shook his head, snapping out of his trance.
“Right,” he cleared his throat, looking down at his cane, “We have another job to do, it’s from Tante Helene.” He says, getting back to being serious.
