Ryn smiled as she looked back out around the bar. "Well, it isn't quite to bursting point yet, so I'm pretty good." She thought for a second "There isn't really much to help with right now, but thanks for the offer." She looked at Naim "I'm Aeryn by the way." She had been talking to this guy for awhile, at least she could introduce herself so she didn't feel like she was talking to a complete stranger.

Naim heaved a sigh, and wondered how much fuller could the place become? But,he shrugged it off, and turned back around to face the bar. "It becomes fuller?" He asked, even though he had heard what she had said, but he wanted to clear it up. "Oh, I'm Naim (Nah-Heem)..." He added, smiling slightly.

Ryn nodded "It becomes so full you can hardly move. Its torture. No space to breath, and the body heat is killer." She smiled "Cool name, irregular." She grinned, irregular names were the best.

Naim nodded, and glanced over his shoulder at the groups of people. He shook his head with humor, as some of the regulars were laughing like maniacs. He quickly looked back over at Ryn, and he smiled faintly, before replying. "Thanks. Most of the people I know, are regular drunks..." He said, seeing one of his old friends, 'Jaws', a big and burly nice guy. "Hey, Naim!" 'Jaws' exclaimed, as he stumbled up to Naim, and he sat down next to him. "Hi!" He also added, to Ryn, friendly hitting Naim on the back.
"Hi, Jaws..." Naim, said, and flinching once Jaws raised his hand to hit him, although it was friendly. Naim, was always remembering to when his dad hit him, when he was younger. Naturally, whenever somebody raised a hand near him, he thought that they were going to hit him also. Also, hoping that Ryn didn't notice the odd flinch.

Ryn nodded and looked at the guy who Naim had called "Jaws". She nodded to him. "Greetings," She said with a faint smile. For once in her life she was actually enjoying talking to someone, and its inturrupted, of course. She knoticed Naim's flinch, but didn't mention it, figuring it was just from the expected hit.

Naim, rolled his eyes, and rested his elbow on the counter. Tapping, his fingers annoyingly against it, also leaning his head against his palm. "Jaws... don't you have some beer bottles to empty?" He asked, in an annoyed tone of voice. Jaws, moved his hand to lightly hit him on the back, once more. "Don't," Naim said, as he leaned away. Jaws gave him a confused glance, as if asking, Why? "I just don't like to be touched, that's all," Naim added, glancing down at the ground. Feeling, guilty and embarassed, as he remembered all of the horrific memories of his dad. And, the feelings showed on his face.

Ryn reached behind the counter and pulled out a bottle of beer. Popping off the top she handed it to Jaws "here, on the house," She said, catching the look on Naim's face. She shoved the bottle into Jaws' hand as if saying to go sit back down. "I'm sure one more beer would do you good." She smiled sweetly, though underneath it was more of disgust. Thankful she had practiced that smile so many times when working here she didn't show her true emotions, a useful skill.

Naim, quickly looked over at Jaws as Ryn handed him the beer. "Yeah please go," He muttered, under his breath. Fortunately, Jaws didn't hear a word, since he had already turned around and walked back to the table. Naim, heaved a sigh, and looked back over at Ryn. He forced a small smile and explained, quietly, "It's just because of my dad..."

Ryn watched Jaws leave, thankful he had taken the hint to leave. She looked over at Naim as he spoke. She nodded slowly, wishing she could somehow have been in his position "I would say I could understand how that feels, but that would be a horrible lie. That really does suck though, must have been horrible."

Naim, shook his head, not wanting exactly to talk about it. "It's fine..." He started to say, then stopped, thinking first of what to say. "How much fuller can this place get?" He finally said, trying to change the subject. He then quickly pushed down the black wristband on his wrist, as he noticed that his old scar showed. Although, the story behind it, was a complete accident.

Ryn looked around "Well, one owuld hope not much, but one never does get what they hope do they?" She sighed "It can get alot more full, though, I hope it stays like this." She looked back at Naim "Space to move is a great thing to have." ((I'v gotta go))

Naim nodded, and grinned. "I wish that I could have a backspace in life, and change all the things that I've done," He said, shaking his head with humor. "But, there's probably too many things that I could manage," He added, jokingly. "I hoped that it wouldn't get half this full." He said, as he looked over his shoulder, at all of the people.

Ryn smiled slightly. She didn't have anything that she regretted doing, at least, not yet. "i think most people do. I know one guy that I know definatly wants to turn back time. Now I wish I didn't know him." She though of Shane and how he had betrayed her not all that long ago, boy did he ever regret that now. She shook the thought out of her head. Looking around for a second she looked back at Naim "Thats a dream that will never come true. It hardly ever gets lower than this."

Naim nodded, and looked down at the ground for a moment. "There's no use in wishing, anyways. Nothing, that anyone wants will ever come true," He said, quietly, for once, not thinking of what he was saying. He shook his head, to clear his mind, "If you knew all that I did, you'd probably hate me with a passion."

"Thats not true, people do sometimes get what they wish for. Just have to be patient." Ryn said. She looked at Naim as he told her she'd probably hate him if she knew what he did. She shook her head "I can't hate. Its a curse, but I honestly can't hate anyone." Her thoughts brought her back to Shane and what he had done. She couldn't hate him, no matter how hard she tried.
