This was his chance. It was his chance to talk to the beautiful girl that had just walked by him into Tibby's. He quickly found his way into the little restaurant and sought out the pretty girl he had just seen.
Spotting her, he walked over casually and pulled up a seat. "Hey. Names Rick. Mind if I sit here?" he asked holding out his hand for her to shake.
For all he knew, she could be rude and completely embarrass him in front of everyone, or she could be courteous and take his extended hand.

"Hi, I'm Starsage. No go ahead."
He grinned, "I know - You're the new Bronx leader..." he said coyly. That was part of the reason he had wanted to have a little chat with her. He knew all of the leaders, but not this one. He made it a point to know all the beautiful girls. Don't get him wrong though, he wasn't a player, he just liked to have open options.

"Yep, thats me. So, obviously you are not one of my newises. Where are you from?"
"I'm one of Houdini's guys..." he stated grinning sheepishly. It hurt his ego a bit to say that he was under the rule of a girl...And a scrawny one at that, but he respected her.

(*Cough* I was BUSY *Cough.* Doing what you told me to! *COUGH!*)
Note walked in to Tibby's, he had been working hard on this hot day, and now he could eat a few chickens, cows, and pigs. The door ringed when he opened it, announcing his arrival. He looked around to see if anyone he knew was there. Sure enough, there at a table, was Starsage.. and.. some other guy.
He walked over to them with a smile on his face. "Hey Starsage!" He said happily. "Who's dis?" he asked more seriously. He hadn't met him yet, but he looked like he might be a newsie.

Limerick stood up politely and held out his hand for the other guy to shake.
"Rick," he repeated, "I'm just tryin' to get to know the Leaders a bit better - You're the new Harlem leader, right?" he asked recognizing his face.
He hadn't meant for him sitting with Star to look like a date - but it had, and made things very awkward.

Note looked from Rick to Starsage. An awkward silence covered them. "Note." He said, shaking his hand. "I hope I'm not interrupting anything." He said, looking at Starsage. Rick had said he was just trying to meet the leaders, but sometimes guys had something different in mind.
"Yeah, I'm da leader of Harlem," He said, answering Rick's question. "How'd you know?" He asked, he certainly had never met him before, at least - he didn't remember it.

"I hope I'm not interrupting anything."
"Oh no - we was just talkin'." Limerick said shaking his head.
"Yeah, I'm da leader of Harlem," "How'd you know?"
Limerick laughed, "I'm one of Houdini's newsies - Houdini knows everyone in New York!" he said flashing a charming smile in Starsage's direction.

"Sua," He said, accepting her proposal. "As long as Rick hea don't mind." HE said looking at Rick. He was curious to how he would reply. This guy seemed fake to him, really fake. He didn't like him one bit.
"You sua you don't mind Starsage?" He asked her, if she was enjoying Ricks company alone, he didn't wan't to mess it up. She should be happy.

((Wow..I'm making him sound like a total idiotic jerk...))
"Oh I don't mind - It's not like it was a private conversation or anything." Limerick said shrugging. That sounded terrible. They must both think he is one conceited jerk. He sighed. "Maybe I should just leave you two...You seem to know each other pretty well - an' I don't wanna be a third wheel..." he said clenching his jaw.
He began to put his coat back on and head towards the door.

Limerick smiled sweetly to Starsage, "Are you sure...?" he asked. "I don;t want to intrude.." he added glancing over to Note.
He really felt like they had something going on and felt as though he was just some idiot bystander.

Note could see she didn't want hin to leave, so he played along. trying to convince him not to leave. "Yeah, stay." He said forcing a smile to his lips. "we can get sumptin to eat, then go to Irving hall and throw ice at the dancers. I'm told its quite fun." He said smiling.
he looked from Rick to Star. "Whada youse think Star?" he asked, "You don't mind getting your hands a little cold and wet do youse?" He chuckled and sat down beside Star and waited for her to decide.

Limerick nodded and sat down with them. It appeared as though Star was taken, and he figured he might as well not even try for her.
"You must know Houdini..." he said in reply to the ice throwing comment. She was known for her sport in throwing ice at the dancers..

"Yeah, I know her." He said looking at Star. "A little too well actually." He laughed and waved to a waiter. The waiter stood with his notepad open, waiting for their orders.
"What are you two going to get?" He asked, He had only eaten here a few times. Most of the time he ate around Harlem. So he didn't really know what to get.

"Yeah, I know her." "A little too well actually."
Limerick raised his eyebrows questioningly and ignored his question on what they were going to eat. "What's that supposed to mean?" he asked frowning. He wasn't one to get jealous - but when it came to things regarding his fellow newsies and his leader - he could be protective.
((gotta go - I'll reply later or tomorrow!))
