Ramon inna bar. This particular ~~Servant of Evil~~ cartel boss/terrorist isn't in a great mood, due to the fact that it's a certain someone's birthday and he feels like he wants to be really nice to them.

No, the irony is not lost on him. He'll probably end up being horrible to the person because of it, but in the meantime he's in the bar and drinking.

Oh and if your name is Lee Castle, approaching is not advisable. ~~He'll be finding you later anyway...~~

The Castillian has once more ventured out of his room and is sitting in a none-to-distant booth. He is hoping not to run into Ramon, but knows that is unlikely. He is also not wishing to have another conversation with Random, because that last one was just 'Whoa, what the fuck.'

Never the less, he is in the bar. He is looking resolute, if somewhat tired. Not having slept in 3 nights will do that to you.

Ramon is scanning the room idly, looking for something to do. He's quite in the mood to start some trouble - or if Random is around, have some fun.

Instead he sees Andres. Never a candidate for the latter - unless snarky conversations count - but usually a good chance of some of the former. Except...didn't he say to Random that he wouldn't start anything?

With the mood he's in, that's a good enough reason to go talk to him at least. So he walks over and sits himself down.

'Morning Andres.'

Is there an ever-so-slightly smug look on his face? Why, yes! But it's only faint.

Andres smiles, albeit somewhat weakly.

"Good day, Ramon. Is there something I can do for you?" He asks civilly.

'No, nothing you can do for me. You just look lonely sitting over here on your own and I thought I'd come and cheer you up.'

OK, so he's stepping slightly outside of the 'I-won't-bait-Andres' comment he made to Random, but oh well.

"I do not need cheering up, Ramon. Though I do thank you for the consideration." *Another smile*

Ramon just grins, then flags down a rat. He orders Andres some red wine and gets himself another tequila.

'I guess buying you a drink is the least I can do.'

"No. Thank you." He has not had anything to eat or drink since Wednesday, and does not intend to start with something Ramon purchased. He looks away and tries to keep his face clear of emotion.

Ramon mock-sighs and rolls his eyes. 'There's no point being a martyr about it Andres, its only a drink.'

"I am not thirsty Ramon. Nor do I care for company.
I'd prefer to be left alone."
*Sternly*

'Well I'd guessed that. Still, it never stopped you bothering me when I'd prefer to be left alone. And as embarrassing as this must be for you, you must know appreciate that there's no way I can just leave you here without saying anything.'

He's always enjoyed that when two people know they severly dislike each other, there doesn't have to be any tiresome pretence at politeness.

Andres closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, attempting to maintain composure.
"The only one this should be embarrassing to, Ramon, is Random. I have nothing to be ashamed of."

'Why should he be embarrassed? I think he's shown remarkable good taste.'

His smirk is probably bordering on insufferable right now.

"You would think that Ramon. Most everyone else, would not."
"Also, I have left you alone, I have not forced my company on you. I have made it clear that I have no wish to associate with you. Why do you insist on my company if it is so unpleasant?"

'Well its lucky that the opinions of others dont matter to me then I suppose.'

He grins widely and has a drink. 'I never said I found your company unpleasant Andres, not when we have such fun with our little chats. And the threats always make me laugh so why should I deny myself?'

"I keep fooling myself into believing that one of these days you will get bored and move on to someone who is willing to fight back."

A delighted chuckle. 'Let the record show that I didn't even have to call you a fool. You did it all by yourself.'

He raises an eyebrow. 'And I'm good at not getting bored sometimes. Especially these days when I have such fun ways to amuse myself.'

*Smirk*

"I am a fool at best Ramon. So I am not insulted,"

'Oh, thats a shame.'

He grins again. Judging by the look of the man, he was beyond rising to jibes but that didn't mean this wouldn't bug him.

'Self pity is so unattractive Andres. Now you've admitted your foolishness, maybe you can find someone else that fits you better.'

Andres rolls his eyes.

"I'm not really interested in finding someone at the moment, Ramon."

'Well, I can understand that. When all your boyfriends dump you at once it probably would tend to put you off a bit.'

*Smirk*
"I will be doing my fair share of dumping, Ramon, but I am glad to see that you understand."

He actually does understand all about that. It's what the whole vendetta is about after all - but he just doesn't care when it happens to other people.

'Ah well, that what I was saying about you and your reputation Andres. Some break up with you because they have other's they like better and some just get more attractive offers. And I guess you must get bored easily, if you're dumping whoever's left. Or maybe you just like brooding in a corner and feeling sorry for yourself.'

"Just remember, Ramon, when Random gets bored of you, misery loves company. Thank you for the concern regarding my reputation, but the matter is my own."

He just shrugs and laughs. 'If he does, he does. I might get bored of him, who knows?' His eyes gleam. 'It's just sex Andres, just fucking. How does it feel to know that you got dumped for that? Your friendship must have really meant nothing to him.'

Andres frowns and his eyes dart down to the table as they avoid meeting Ramon's.

"Random offered to maintain friendship. I could not do it." He says quietly.
