He smiled cheerfully towards their guests and greeted them with a cloth on his arm and bowed so much he almost touched the floor.
-"Aaah~, good evening Mrs. Gabriell Illous and William Hegrid." They both laughed over to see him again after all these years and Gabriell took her little fan and waved it around in her face.
-"Oh, dear Joseph, it was sooo long since we met, how's it going with your little pub here outside of town?" Joseph smiled and tweaked the cloth while William laughed so much that he finally coughed.
-"Yes, Joseph. Hrrmmh… Tell us a bit more about your job, I see in all cases that your place has been greatly popular! Have you met any girl perhaps? Then you know, you've just turned 20 and received no result yet? One day it will happen?"Gabriell struck him lightly with her fan, and sighed with a laugh.
-"William! You know he have it tough, he may take it at his own pace." They both laughed and Joseph could not help laughing a little low too.
-"Weell...." Said Joseph very uncertain.
-"I've been so busy with work that I had not even thought about it at all... But yeah, sure girls at a young age trying to seduce me but easy it is not. " Joseph looked at them and Gabriell smiled broadly.
-"Really? Well, that's what girls like! When a man plays hard to get!" William coughed a little bit to get attention.
-"Gabriell please! It is you who are such a girl who likes those kinds of men; do not think that everyone is like that." Gabrielle sighed a bit annoyed and was just trying to be a little friendly, she knew that Joseph had a hard time now but he did not look so worried about it.
-"Well... Joseph is a real girl magnet, I can tell! And even if you did not notice it Joseph, I'll tell you that BOY! They check on you like hawks, even I was a bit fond of you at the beginning.... But do not tell it to my husband." Joseph laughed and William also.
-"But you, Joseph... How is it that you know so many who are here, there will always be new people here and yet you know everyone's names." William coughed a little and looked a little pensive while Joseph smiled and Gabriell sighed and shook her head.
-"But William, I have already told you, he can see everyone's real names above their heads or somewhere around their body, and when they are born and...." She thought for a bit but did not remember on what the last one was, and she glared at Joseph to get help remembering.
-"Well not quite, I can see everyone's name and when to die. It's a very special gift I received from my dead father." William opened his mouth a little and took a sip of his wine, he did not want to look all too surprised and Gabriell waved the hand with the index finger outward and nodded with a grin.
-"Yees~ Oh, yeah! That's it! I remember now!" She drank from her glass.
-"By the way, I do not have the best memory, but you should probably know that after all these years you've known me... But hey, have you seen my husband Calvin yet? He said he would go to the bathroom but is not back? Could he run a smoker or is he having a hard time going?" She grinned and tried to hold her laughter back and took her glass of wine in hand and touched the wine until she then drank from it altogether.
-"Well... I can't keep a look out of everyone when they go to the bathroom, even if they are guests. You know? There's a limit on how far one can go..." Joseph said and Gabrielle laughed and almost got her wine up the throat while William smiled broadly and raised his glass.
-"Well, you're right in... But anyway, now that you can read people's real names, does it matter where they are? I mean...." William looked left and right before he leaned forward to whisper and Joseph leaned down to hear him out.
-"Can you see vampires' name too? Werewolves? Witches, sorcerers? Magicians.. You know… characters that are not normal people?" Joseph looked at him with eyes open but then nodded, William nodded too and grinned softly like if he was right for once.
-"But hey... Joseph , then who is that young man?" William asked and pointed; Joseph turned a little and saw the man who drank from his glass.
-"Ah, yes. He just came by and seemed to be totally confused so I took a glass of wine for him and let him get some rest." Joseph said and Gabrielle nodded and looked at the man and William pulled up as he always did when he got an idea, like he had a rocket in the butt and went up out of the chair or sofa, even.
-"Why not prove us your talent! Then what's that man's name?" William smiled broadly and although he already believed his best friend already, he could not help to have some sort of evidence.
-"Yeah ... What's his name?" Said Gabriell wondrous and wagged her fan, Joseph sighed but continued to smile kindly, he always had a welcoming smile that was always warm to anyone, from friends to strangers. His eyes would always sparkle for the customers, they had these green yellow eyes that were not as common, but they always showed kindness, no one had ever seen him as a cold fella, not even those who've tried to fight him.
-"Yes, of course. His name is........"
