Esau has always prided himself on being a keen observer, and lately, he's noticed a plethora of discarded cigar and cigarette butts littering the streets. He had also heard the complaints of many citizens and mobsters regarding the number of smokers cluttering up the public spaces. He shakes his head as he looks down the street, noting the amount of cigarettes and cigars that had been left laying around bins, just stamped out on the floor littering the ground that we walk on. No one seemed interested in doing anything to clean up the streets, the streets are always cleared up of threats and rogues, so why not rubbish too? 

Esau had recently bought a building on the high street of Detroit. Initially, he planned on turning it into a hunting shop, after all that was his specialty. Luckily enough he hadn't spent any further money on the property yet, as in his eyes, it didn't exactly need it. Esau was far too cheap and has bought the building decorated and painted. The only thing left to do was furnish it.

Being far too busy to personally pick the furniture, he sends Aeus, g0d and Vixen to take care of things. Two men for the heavy lifting and a woman to bring a woman's touch on the place. It didn't need much too be honest, just a few fans, ashtrays, furniture to sit on and a jukebox. They could easily handle it.

After almost half a day, the furniture is bought and carried to the business. Vixen had done a great job "managing" the two exhausted men, adamant that her role was finished once everything was purchased. When everything was in place Esau remembered something that he said to Rayln in the streets regarding smoking...something about how 'it is suppose to keep females slim and beautiful.' Rayln had just shrugged it off and looked at her body with a terrible look.

The final touches were put in place no thanks to Vixen. "Cheers doll." Esau taps her on the bottom as she makes her way over to the small bar area where they only sell rum, all water is free.

Before finally announcing the opening of the smoking business, Esau instructs one of his heavies to go fetch Rayln, she wouldn't want to miss it for the world.

Saue flew to Detroit a week or so afterwards to visit Esaus new smoke palace as he too did not like smoking in the streets polluting the air of the young and old carrying a box to deliver something  Saue seen as importance to the smokers corner when he arrived he was greeted by vixen and g0d he asked where Esau was so he could show him what he brought.

Vixen went to get Esau and i could tell he was still saddened by the death of one of our own as he walked down the stairs "Hey boss, i have a new addition Plague to hang up in here" Saue says to Esau as he opens the box and takes the Plague out.

The Plague read in Script.

In Loving memory of

Aeus

After Saue shows Esau the plague he heads towards a table takes up a chair, takes a smoke from his breast pocket and lights it 'Puff, puff' Saue says as he exhales "Feels good having a smoke where i dont feel guilty about filling some poor kids lungs with smoke" Saue sits and waits for Esau and the rest to come join him and have talk and remember all the days they had with Aeus because he will be forever remembered in The Genesis.

Esau watches as @Saue brings in the plaque in recognition of Aeus's amazing sacrifice, if it wasn't for him Esau might not be alive today, he owed his life to him. The plaque is a kind gesture and Esau welcomes in into the Smokers Corner, he hands it up directly behind the bar so it is one of the first lines of sight you notice upon entering the establishment.

Saue removes a smoke from his pocket to sit down, relax and enjoy the space around him. He clicks his fingers and holds up two fingers to indicate what he wants, the usual of scotch on the rocks. Esau brings both drinks over to the table and nods to @Saue as he sits down.

"The plaque is a kind gesture, I am sure Aeus would have appreciated it dearly." He sits, a few moments pass and still not been offered a smoke. "Not even going to offer?"

Saue sits and watches Esau hang the plaque above the bar for all to see as soon as they enter The Smoking Corner. Saue puffs away as Esau sits and joins him holding two glasses, Esau hands the glass to Saue saying "The plaque is a kind gesture, I am sure Aeus would have appreciated it dearly" Saue pleased to hear these words from Esau was happy that his boss liked the plaque in the honor of our late brother.

A few moments passed as Esau and Saue sat talking about good old times with Aeus drinking there glasses of scotch when Saue pulls out a packet of Rothman Blue 30's from his breast pocket and takes a cigarette, puts the packet on the table as he hears Esau say "Not even going to offer" Saue takes the smoke he just took from the packet and hands it to Esau, leaning slightly over the table Saue flicks his lighter as Esau leans in and lights his smoke, as Saue sits down and grabs another cigarette he looks at Esau and says "This really is a lovely place you got here boss, any future shops you have in mind for the near future, because im in need of some sort of buisness to kill some time during the day" with a smile Saue takes another drag of his smoke 'Puff, Puff'

Saue lights the cigarette for both, Esau had quit smoking a long time ago but one every now and then wouldn't hurt right?

"You should consider a place in Philadelphia, I hear good things to come over there, perhaps I may even join you if I can find the time to maintain this place and another."

After each having a few puffs on their smokes, Esau picks up the drinks to salute the late Aeus. "To the late Aeus his sacrifice won't be forgotten." Both men have a few sips and place the drinks back down on the table almost in sync with each other. "So you are thinking of setting up a new business eh?"

Saue and Esau continue to smoke and salute to Aeus as Esau says "To the late Aeus his sacrifice won't be forgotten" as Saue and Esau both takes sips of there glasses and sets them down in sync Esau says "So you're thinking about setting up a buisness eh?"

Saue just smiles at Esau as he takes another drag of his smoke, he looks to the table then at Esau and says "We'll boss it has come to my attention that as many of us know our drinking and smoking habits have, (cough, cough) well have become beyond uncontrollable, we not as just a family but as a society surely need to get a grip on what we do to our bodies so i was thinking of either 2 options, #1 a Detox Rehabilitation Buisness or #2 a Crossfit Gym" Saue glances at Esau and sighs as he continues "Because honestly Boss, i believe that the smoke and the booze is what is going to kill us before a gun is even raised towards our heads, I look out into the streets and i see Bars on Bars making alot of money but also creating weaker and weaker family members, creating nothing but problems, turning families against families now i believe without so much liquor we as not only just a family but as a society have a chance to grow together withlut this poison ruining our lives" Saue takes another smoke from the packet off the table and sparks it takes a puff and then butts it out in the ashtray "Today boss i quit smoking, and i will only have a drink on special occasions" Saue raises his glass and says "And well today is one of those special occasions, so Salute" 

Esau listens on as @Saue rambles on and on about business and money, this kid was obsessed, ever since day one all he ever wanted to do was live and breathe money. Making money wasn't so much a problem, but the kid seriously never stopped, by the way he goes about his stuff it was going to land him in trouble one day and on that day, he would need Esau to help him out.

"Kid, that is all you are, making money is one thing but being obsessed is another, be careful how you go about your business."

Esau takes a quick glance around to see who is looking.

"If you are looking to set up shop somewhere, I'd recommend Philadelphia, I hear good things are coming.

Morina, as a fellow smoker himself, but not too keep on walking around with a smoke on his lips. Took his time to change direction towards his boss's Smokers Corner establishment. Maybe get a pack or two of his favorite brand along the way. Chuckles at the thought.

Looks around the places he passed by, Detroit was flourishing. Passing by a lot of population also. A sight he hadn't seen in a while. "Opening a shop or two wouldn't hurt", was on his thoughts, also one of the reasons he changed direction in the way to his boss's establishment.

His destination finally in plain view, getting closer with each step. Finally making it all the way in front of the door. Opens it, taking a slow first step. Sees his boss and also Saue. Smiles at both of them, taking a seat at the nearest chair there. Takes out the pack of his cigarettes he had in his pocket, puts a cig in his mouth. Lights it up. The smoke going in sync with the smoke that was already in the air by the two individuals that were already present there.

As he looks around, his eyes stumbling on the plague sign. Couldn't help but ask: "Hey there there boss. Got a nice place going on here. Calming and all, suiting your personality." Chuckles

After that little chuckle he gave, Morina's face turns a little more serious with a sad look on his face. "So i noticed the plague sign, who's unfortunate name is written there?"

Esau waits on Saue to reply, but he seems to have lost his words, at this time a familiar faces comes walking in, Morina. Morina was a new addition to the family, his father worked at a Carnival hence his name for being too into his work. Esau always appreciated hard workers, so he knew Carnivals son would have learned from this. Checking out his new surroundings.

"Welcome Morina, glad you could stop by." Morina notices the plaque and curiously asks what it is about and whom. "The plaque is for a former right hand man of mine, he risked his own life to protect that of his boss, Aeus will never be forgotten."

Shakes his head for a bit. Death is something that one can be afraid and also hate it at the same time. No one wants that, there is not coming back from that. Was on Morina's thoughts, as soon as his boss finished his words answering Morina his question. Puts his cigare back on his mouth poofing a few time exhaling all the unnecessary smoke outside, creating a mist in front of him. Disperses it with his hand.

"Well, we can't grieve forever now. Life is too short to live on the past." Changes the look on his face to that of a cheerful one. 

"Speaking of pasts, boss. Had in mind of following in the footsteps of my parents and the ones that came before them. The move we made in Philly was good and all, but the place business wise, is dead. Have a few business's in mind, legit ones. We do enough money off the records, but doesn't hurt to own one or two official business's." Chuckles.

Alacchi was wandering around while on a "business" trip to Detroit when he remembered a old friend owned a smoke shop nearby. He decided to head on over and see how it was. After a good 15 minute walk he had finally arrived to his destination.

Alacchi walked in and looked for familiar faces. 2-3 faces later he noticed Esau, Saue and Morina.

"Good afternoon friends." Said Alacchi

"Beautiful day, ain't it?, Nice place you got going here Esau. How about a few fine cigars on me. Maybe few drink to if possible."

Alacchi sat down at a nearby table and waited upon his requests.

Esau is happy that his business is finally picking up, even though it doesn't stand to make much profit, it was more about getting the smokers off the streets and into one big place rather than scattered around everywhere. Morina continues to speak and can't help but agree that Philadelphia needs some good business.

"I'm sure our friends at city hall have no objections to us running businesses in Philadelphia, in fact I am sure they'd appreciate the blooming businesses that we can bring not just as a district, but as a city as a whole. Lay your ideas down and lets see what we can come up with eh?"

As Morina is about to respond, TonyAlacchi comes walking in, a man who has just made the ranks and received his button by Tyrion, his crew leader and one of Esau's good friends.

"Tony, I am glad you dropped by, pull up a chair why don't you."

Alacchi sat down with Morina and Esau, awaiting futher conversations. He then lit a cigar that Esau had brought for the table. Puffing on his cigar Alacchi wondered if he could get a few drink on his tab for his friends.

Esau, thanks for the kind welcome. Beautiful place you got here... I'm likely to become a usual. Said Alacchi

Very classy, not too many places where you could enjoy quality time with friends around here. Alacchi inhaled a puff of his fine cigar.

looking around he wondered how much rent was around here for local business', he had nothing in mind yet but that was just a detail.

I got a few friends whom I think might like this place, I'll make sure to put in a good word.

He exhaled his smoke.

Rae had put off going to Esau 's place for some time now. Mainly out of laziness, but also because she rarely found herself in the business district of any of the cities these days. She pushed open the door and looked around, "I heard the rum was free?" she asked as she pulled her coat off and draped it over her arm. "And knowing you, I found that practically impossible to believe." she fell into a seat and crossed her legs, "But on the off-chance that its not wrong, and the rum is free, here I am!" she told te man with a smile.

Out of nowhere Rayln comes walking in and immediately gets on to the subject of free rum, maybe she wanted to have a night where she wouldn't remember anything, those nights are always fun. Esau would be more than happy to give her as much rum as she wanted, if he was lucky, she may even go home with him. She sits down and immediately crosses her leg as Esau tried to get a cheeky which he believes he was caught doing.

"The rum is free for you dear, take what you want and relax." Again, Esau gives her the eye. "No really, just relax."
