Re: Sutra's Apartments
"This is the seedy side of town. While I'm sure you can take care of yourself, it's still not good to give people the wrong idea, yeah?" he said.
"This place isn't too horrible, though. I spent every other night here from the time I was six. It was kinda weird, actually. One night, I'm here, the next I was in one of the nicer apartments at Derring Condominiums. It provided an interesting contrast, to say the least."
As they drew nearer to his uncle's door, an electric guitar chord pierced the thin walls, though it was still somewhat muted in the hall. When they got closer, Ozzy knocked on the door, calling, "Yo, Unc'! It's me! I brought a friend, so make sure you're decent!"
The guitar stopped, feeding back a bit as it was forced to quit playing. A couple of seconds later, and there were clicking and sliding noises, followed by the door opening to reveal a man in his mid-thirties with long black hair and green eyes. He wore a pair of ratty jeans and an old white T-shirt, and if the state of his hair had anything to say, he'd just woken up.
"Heeyy, Ozzy! What's up, my man? Who's your friend, huh? Come in, come in! I was just getting some practice in, but no worries. Got a gig tonight, man, gotta get some extra practice in, you know? Anywho, what can I do for you, bro?"
"Hey, Unc'. This is M. M, this is my uncle Dave. Unc', I just need your mailbox key. Grandpa asked me to do some stuff, and I figured I'd see how you were doing while I was over here, and the guy at the front desk said you hadn't gotten your mail yet." replied Ozzy, smiling.
"Oh, thanks, dude! Yeah, I just got up, you know how I am. Gimme a sec, lemme go get it. C'mon in for a bit, take a load off. Nice to meet you, M, and just call me Dave, 'kay?"
With that, Ozzy's uncle walked into one of the other rooms in the small apartment, leaving the door open. Ozzy poked his head in first, then pushed the door farther open, holding it for Mirage.
"Looks safe enough. After you, M."
