Summary; Big ol' open log for the grand opening of Isaak's bar~ Feel free to come and socialize, even if you don't know the guy! Hooray!
Log;

Word has been spreading, in a quiet sort of way-- a tasteful poster here, an idle comment there, a few personal invitations (with varying degrees of detail) delivered by Isaak himself, and (of course) the polite request that others pass the word along. Simple, but (one hopes) effective.

The Wolf's Den is luxurious without being overly ostentatious; it's warmly lit and comfortable in spite of its newness, with comfortable leather seating and a well-stocked, under-lit bar. No detail has been overlooked-- and, perhaps, no expense spared-- from the hardwood floor to the ornately-tiled ceiling.

There's plenty of food and drink to go around, and as the evening gets underway, Isaak is contentedly mingling among his guests, socializing and keeping an eye on things in equal parts.

So, have a drink; make some new friends. Everyone is welcome, here.

"And there are certainly worse ways to be kept busy."

It is, he suspects, a balance that will even out somewhat once the glow of newness is no longer about the place. Isaak wants to succeed, of course, but there is something to be said for setting his apart from the City's thousand other bars. And, no doubt, there is an aspect of self-indulgence to the endeavour.

He leans in, a perfectly innocent reaction to the noise of a crowded room, dropping his tone ever so slightly.

"Of course, you're welcome to drop in any time you like for a drink."

"I intend to take you up on that offer. I'll drop by when you least expect it."

As an investor, it's his duty to come by and see how things are going, after all. He wouldn't be doing his job if he didn't turn up at the bar every so often, with or without prior notice. It's something to focus his attention on, after all, and when he gets involved in business, he gets very involved. He's sure Isaak has noticed that, given the involvement he already has with the Wolf's Den -- and its owner.

[defies_reason]

My, my, Andrei, are you so attentive in all your business affairs? If so, Isaak might have to be impressed with your energy levels.

"Well, I look forward to it."

For any number of reasons, actually.

[rianofski]

Only the business affairs that involve people like Isaak -- but then, he's always had a knack for doing business with people like Isaak.

"As do I. I won't keep you much longer; I'm sure you have quite a bit of mingling to do."

After all, as the owner, Isaak has to greet just about everybody. As an investor, Andrew can afford to be much quieter.

[defies_reason]

Under any other circumstances Isaak would be considerably less of a social butterfly, but he's never been one to shirk his duty. And it's not an unpleasant one, surprisingly; people are hardly likely to be anything but complimentary. He smiles faintly.

"Of course, of course. Besides, I'm sure we'll speak again before the evening's through."

[rianofski]

"I have no doubt that we will."

Andrew, of course, intends to be considerably less social than Isaak will tonight, but that's because, as an investor, he doesn't have the same need to be. He'll take his drink and find a quiet place to sit to observe the crowd. You can learn a lot from simple observation, and he has to admit, he enjoys watching Isaak, as well.

[defies_reason]

Perhaps his smile widens just a bit, but he doesn't answer, only giving Andrew a companionable pat on the shoulder as he slips off into the crowd. He's gentleman enough not even to let it linger.
