As always, the Meat Market was ready to celebrate the latest holiday. Valentine's Day meant the decorations were pink and red with plenty of lighting of the same. Heart-shaped balloons floated against the ceiling. And there were plenty of dancers ready to perform, a few too many perhaps. Fabina had to tell her bimbo employees to hold some restraint. They can't dance completely naked on the stage. After all, Valentine's Day is the holiday of love, not lust.
However, ever the opportunist, Fabina thought of something for the Meat Market for couples. Knowing how high-libido Animalians can be, she allowed some of the private rooms to be rented to couples for half an hour. She provided some sexy garments so they can engaged in their own private shows, provided they clean up afterwards. She got quite a lot of revenue from that, though she wasn't planning on letting them use the private rooms all the time. Perhaps on birthdays if they can provide proof that the specific date is a birthday for one of them.
Taking a break from watching over the club, Miss Fabina decided to make a call she's been meaning to do for some time. She just hope both sides of this conversation can be civil. "Hello, this is William Tarr," said a voice on the other side.
"Mayor Tarr, I'm Miss Fabina from Lyre," said Fabina.
"Ah, the current owner of the Meat Market," said William in a cool tone, "If you're still attempting to set up a strip club in my city..."
"No, I get the message loud and clear," said Fabina, "And I do apologize. It's not really your fault that the state of Texas won't allow it."
"But this is more than just an apology call," said William.
"Yes, well, I've heard that Dinotopia is building a new city near Elk Springs, Colorado. Is that true?" asked Fabina.
"It's going to take time to get it built up," said William.
"Of course," said Fabina, "And I know what the zoning laws in Texas says about casinos and strip clubs, but what about Colorado?"
William sighed and said, "You're asking the wrong person about that. And even if I did knew, it's completely out of my hands. I'm sure Mesozoic Enclave will have its own mayor who will be having final say of what gets built in their new city. Maybe things are less conservative in Colorado, but I wouldn't have any say in the matter."
"Ah, of course," said Miss Fabina, "Have you any notion of who would have say in the matter? Do you know who's going to be the city planner?"
"I think we've selected one, but I can't remember the name off the top of my head. I'll provide you their information later. If Colorado zoning laws won't deny it, perhaps you can talk them into designating an area for a casino or strip club or whatever you want," said William.
"Thank you, I hope I haven't taken up too much of your time," said Miss Fabina.
"Not as much as I would have expected," said William.
"I hope you have a pleasant day," said Fabina.
"You too," said William before hanging up.
Well, at least he wasn't too sore about her sending an agent to speak about setting up another club in Dino City. Fabina hoped that there was room for a club in Mesozoic Enclave. There was too much demand on the Animalian website for videos featuring Dinotopians to ignore.
