Hey - [Sam looks very busy! He's in his office at Merlotte's, gathering up files, folders...] - wanted to let everybody know to come down to Merlotte's tonight, we've got a few stand-up comics hired for the night show and some drink specials. I won't be there though, I've got to meet with some people about gettin' a loan, but I've got someone I used to work with at Club 24 coverin' for me tonight. She's real sweet, so I want ya'll to make her feel welcome, okay? - And don't think this means you can act up in the club; I'll still be back to kick ya'll in the ass tomorrow if you do.

[he grabs his keys, waves at the NV and sets it face-down on his desk. There's a muffled conversation, and soon after a woman picks the NV up and smirks]

...Hey there. I'm Sandra - I'll be watchin' the bar for Sam tonight. Hope to see you all in.

((APRIL FOOLS - with a little help from the devil, Sam's in touch with his feminine side tonight and plans to troll you all. You can respond to this like a post or start an action thread in the club!))

[Samn sneaks up behind him, hands behind her back - she's in a fashionable little business-skirt-and-blouse combo Lucifer whipped up for her April Fooling.] You feelin' any better?

What, huh?

[He turns around, eyebrows darting up in surprise. Oh, hello.]

I, uh... Yeah. Yeah, I'm good.

You sure? You've still got a helluva shiner.

[He ducks his head, lips quirking up.]

It's nothing. Just a little tap.

We ain't met before, have we? I'm Jesse.

I'm Sandra. Sam's out tonight, so I'm watchin' after the club. ...You're the DJ, right? [she hops up to sit on the stage - remembering to cross her legs after a moment] Settin' up for the comedy show?

[Oh, that's good. Gives him a nice view of her legs without it being too obvious that he's looking. Yeah, don't mind him. Just messing with some wires on this speaker over here.]

Yep. So you're the boss tonight, huh? Don't worry. I got this almost ready.

I trust you. Sam says you're a pretty quick learner. [she's... trying really hard to keep from grinning too much.

(Spoilers: she's noticed, Jesse)]

[Hey, as long as she's smiling and not slapping him, it's alright if she notices.]

When it comes to sound systems, yo, I don't need much teaching. You should see the mad setup I got at home.

Oh yeah? Pretty proud of your equipment?

I got every reason to be proud.

Uh-huh.

So, you got a girl back home?

Nope.

[Not one he expects he'll ever see again, now that he's married to a cartel. But he doesn't sound too sad because hooray for getting teleported into another universe!]

What about you?

Nope, no girls.

[He snickers and nods.]

That's good. No husbands either?

[she holds up her hands - look, no rings]

The last time I believed that...

[He finishes the sentence with a gesture to his bruises.]

Is that what happened?

[Back to messing with wires, trying not to look as pissed as he actually is about the entire thing.]

Yuuup.

You know foundation's a good cover-up.

[He snorts.]

Yeah. I, uh, I heard that.

Or are you hopin' it's gonna attract sympathetic women?

Is it working?

[well look at that, Junior has game.]

Not quite.

...But in your defense, that's mostly 'cause I'm actually your boss.

Yeah, for like a day.

No, I mean I'm actually your boss. Sam Merlotte.

[such a bright, sunny smile]

April Fool's.
