Chuckling at his own joke, to the surprise of neither Mr. Black nor TheDeathShouts, Quirinus steps out from the shadows near his HQ. Approaching the smaller crowd of shivering mafiosi assembled before him this bitterly cold January evening, he steps up onto a cement block, in lieu of a soapbox, and waits for silence to reign.

Well gentlemen, and when I mean gentlemen I mean hardened criminals, I have an Announcement.

Pausing for dramatic flair, Quirinus lets the silence linger heavily on the ears of all those assembled, before going on

As a man capable of giving the nod to those seeking opportunity, I have been approached by several members in This Thing of Ours who seek to test their leadership skills in my city. Out of all those approached, one man has stood out as a fine example of what New Blood can achieve. After several long talks with this young man over many things of Importance, I have decided to give him permission to set up a crew in my city.

Turning to the man in Question, Quirinus gives him a rough shake

-Quixote, good luck.

Quixote nods. Something close to a smile comes to his face for but a second, and disappears as quickly as it had formed. He turns and starts at a brisk walk down the street. Quirinus had allowed him to start an operation in the Gateway City, and Quixote would not disappoint. He mumbles into the cold, Saint Louis air...

A lot of work lies ahead. These drugs aren't going to move themselves and the hookers are lining up to be put to work.

Quixote slows up and turns down a dark alley. A shadowy figure leans against the brick wall waiting for him. This man is none other than Zanzabar.

Come, Zanzabar, we have work to do.

Zanzabar tosses his cigar to the ground, steps out the embers, and steps towards his boss.
Quixote throws open the door to the headquarters he just signed papers for. Although appearing grim from the street, it is increasingly impressive as you enter. Quixote and Zanzabar entered to find a small group of men, lounging in the front room.

Welcome, family. Let's get to work, my fellow Knights of the Woeful Countenance.

Quixote, my man you will do St.Louis very good, congrats!

Seeing -Quixote enter the lounge. Marcello puts out his smoke and welcomes him with a handshake." Its good to see another business owner like yourself make it to the top. Im sure you will do well." Marcello said as he sat back to light another smoke and enjoy the good night.

Congratulations -Quixote.  Good Luck on your family and bring great things to St. Louis!

While he closes his coat and trembles in his shoes due to the cold he awaits the men to step out of the HQ. Great news would be announced they said. While going through his pockets a smile appears on his face on finding a nice big spliff...hmmmm

While lighting up his spliff he hears the news to be announced.

As an associate of the St. Louis Connection I hope you can bring fortune to our great city. If you need any help with deploying the hookers, I am all game. Just so you know. I wish you good luck in our city and never hesitate to drop one of us a line for feedback or help.

Ah.. By the Way, Quirinus, your joke was really good..

TDS goes giggling himself too.. He hopes his Godfather won't be mad at him.

Congrats -Quixote! Even though we haven't spoken yet I am certain you will do a great job.. Our Godfather picks only the best for such tasks..

Congratulations -Quixote, hope everything goes well for you in St. Louis!
