It was just another day at the casino. Bella was making her rounds with Matty trailing at her feet. The cloyingly sweet scent of cigars filled the air. She made small talk with the patrons, congratulating those that struck it big and consoling those that didn't. That was the thing about Bella, she wasn't some money-mongering tyrant when it came to her casino. Sure, she had a business to run, but that didn't matter nearly as much as seeing people happy. She felt genuine sympathy when she saw customers gamble away their assets and come out with nothing. She longed to see them all succeed and have fun. Of course,
some of them had too much fun.
"Miss Fawley," a voice called out behind Bella. She turned around to see Alonzo standing there, a rather grumpy look on his face. Bella cocked an eyebrow in response and Alonzo continued. "We, uh, have a patron upstairs who, it seems, has had a little too much to drink. We think he may have alcohol poisoning."
Bella sighed. She herself was a fan of the drink, but she knew her limits. Some people, on the other hand, obviously didn't. Bella picked up her cat and made her way back to her office, cutting her rounds short to deal with the situation. She closed the door to her office and picked up the old-fashioned telephone sitting on her desk. After going through the proper channels, she finally got on the line with the welcome witch. "Yes, I have a patron with potential alcohol poisoning. Yes, the White Lotus Casino. Male, late twenties. Could you send someone over to check on him? Thanks, love. Uh huh. Goodbye." She hung up the phone and sat down in her chair, spinning around in it for a moment while she waited for the mediwizard to arrive.
Just another day.
