There's wind and a bit of snow outside as a man in a hideously orange and white scarf throws open the door and stomps in.

Once he's in however, Carl relaxes. There's only so long that a man can be angry. Not to mention he's angry about petty matters anyway. Millie and Danny and their constant heckling about the monkey-the studio-a new script.

Ah, the burdens of being a filmmaker.

So he sits, but not before depositing a stack of bills and some coins on the bar.

"Tips."
The tips vanish.

Carl is a good tipper.
Afterwhich he procures a pad of paper and a pencil, trying his best to write out a story idea he's had for a bit. Hey-he can write. He's just...um...bad at it.

He's trying to write a first person narrative about an astronaut in space orbiting Jupiter with a giant black triangle.
Or square. Something like that.


You can talk to him.

He frowns.

"Nothing. It's...it's pathetic, really. Nevermind."

"I said it was nothing!"

[ ooc: and I must slink away to church. dunno when I'll be back, depends on if mom wants to go out later, but I should be able to squeeze in one tag when I get home if that happens. ]

"I've just received...a few unneccessary comments about my nose, is all."

"Cut my nose off?"

He's heard it could be done.
