<div align="center"><strong>~Jotham Godstone at the bar | Day 2~</strong></div><br/>Jotham nodded his silent thanks to the attractive woman behind the bar as he grabbed the proffered water and took a several big gulps, quenching his thirst and nearly emptying the mug. The withering stare from the man next to him did not go unnoticed, but Jotham didn't bother to react. Although he had his trusty Colt Peacemaker .45 LC (http://moviegunguy.com/WordPress/wp-content/gallery/us-cavalry-weapons/uscav1873colt.jpg) holstered on his right hip, Jotham was not a violent man nor was he looking for any trouble.<br/><br/>He climbed onto the stool next to him and settled in, turning to lean his back against the bar with a stretch. His back popped and cracked as he finally worked out the hunch between his shoulder blades from his long journey. He watched as another woman in a low cut maroon top approached the bar and addressed the other lovely woman. He listened to the conversation between the two before the man joined in one more. He half smirked, brushing off the comments that were obviously directed at him but said nothing. He was new in town and looking for work. The last thing he needed to do was make a bad first impression and find himself with a bad reputation and enemies to boot.<br/><br/>He listened quietly from his place at the bar, taking particular interest at the mention when the discussion turned to baths and a room. He had been riding for little over a week now and was in dire need of a proper bath and change of clothes. The bucket baths he'd managed on the trail was just enough to take care of the important spots, so when he came into town, at least he didn't smell... too badly.<br/><br/>After a good bath and change of clothes, he would need to procure some more rations for he and his horse. God only knows how long he would be on the trail the next time out. He'd been looking for work for so long now and Oasis seemed a good place to find prospective employers. As he finished his water, setting the mug down with a smile and nod to the lady behind the bar, he felt hopeful for the first time in a long time.
