 So, I live on Cantina Street in a tiny apartment with Lil J. We moved in about a year ago, and have so far managed to stay. It's under my name, and we pay rent to the landlady, Mrs. Gomez. She's nice enough, but strict on the rent. Due at the first of each month. Sometimes girls visit, but I don't make a habit of it. I'm too busy for that on a regular basis, so it just happens when it does. Sex leaves a bad taste in my mouth from some shit way back, even to this day, but whatever. |

So I can't figure out how to post an image here >.<
Anyway I'm on Verde Drive, which intersects with Cantina Street at about a 45 degree angle, aiming NW and intersecting with San Carlos Blvd. Reaper lives in an apartment with two prostitutes who work for her "husband." This is where Sugardaddy's best whores live. It's one of the nicer buildings, and far from San Carlos due to the illicit activities, about 5 buildings down from Cantina. The landlord is a drug dealer by the name of Rodriguez, who's a pretty cool cat.

There's a small blue reply button, which you have to use instead of quick reply. Then, you can post an image as an image link (from imgur for example) or straight up attach the image with the Attachment option, I believe.

Nope! I think I'm good! You've got questions waiting for you on your character thread, though!

 Running more or less parallel to Cantina Street is Eliza Street. It's an alright place. Got a few storefronts. Switch lives there, in a single apartment above a coffeehouse. He's renting it from one Mr. Edward Vale, who's giving him a good deal in exchange for a favor Switch did for him some time back. He tries to keep his living quarters a secret, since he doesn't want people trying to barge in on him at all hours of the day & night, but if you need something set up, and you've got the money, and Switch thinks you have a face he can trust, he'll invite you back to talk over coffee. |

Yes beautiful I love you all.
Now we're not done yet.
Ha ha sucks to be you all.
Now, you all go around and place An Important Place on any street other than your home street. Think about public places everyone can go -- grocery stores, bowling alleys, public parks, a bar and grill, etc.
Draw it on any street EXCEPT where you live, and TELL US what ties you to this place. A family member owns it? Works there? You work there? You're on a bowling team? You play pick up games at the bball courts? This is where your dealer hangs?
Go motherfuckers, draw draw draw

 On the corner of Cantina & Verde is the Cantina Diner. They've got a mix of your American diner food with some Latin American specialties thrown in as well from the immigrant chefs. The owner, Ortiz, wants to keep the cops away since not all his workers are exactly of the documented type, so any sniff of illegitimacy is sure to get you kicked to the curb, but if you're willing to grease the wheels a little, Ortiz might let you use the side dining room for special guests. My sister Wei works there as a waitress. |

I won't be able to draw this in until later, but around the middle of San Carl is the club I work at, Oasis. It's nice enough, sort of an Arabian nights feel to the place but the liquor is good and some of the waitresses will be your friend if you pay enough under the table. I protect them if they need it and get rid of idiots who are wing drunk and rowdy.

Another street, Community Ave. runs perpendicular to Cantina, and goes through before Verde hits. It dead ends on Verde, just a house down from where I live. That is where the Chinese Restaurant I work at is. It's called Dragon Express.

Well hold on, Reaper! We're no longer adding streets! We're now done with that. The neighborhood of San Carlos Boulevard consists of SC Boul, Cantina, Verde, and Eliza. Anything we add now, goes on one of those streets.
So, place Dragon Express on Cantina, Eliza, or SC Boul.

Oh my bad >.<
I didn't realize this was only going onto current streets. Okay i'm going to say that Sugardaddy's club is up on Eliza Street. Closer to San Carlos than Switches joint, but a block or so away to give a respectable distance from a main street, considering.
