<p> Aging, early 40's power players are nearly as common in Los Angeles as that tropiest of tropes, the Nebraska 8 wanna-be starlet.

Isabel arrived in Los Angeles at the beginning of 2023, after winning a scholarship in Entertainment Arts by the Los Angeles City College. Thanks to the relatively light curriculum she has enough time to hold a job as Dance Instructor of Latin American Dances, in a dance studio in Hollywood. On the weekends she is occasionally hired as a dancer or even as singer in various venues around the Los Angeles, often replacing performers that were unable to show up at the last minute. She also sometimes works as simple hostess or model, although the competition for those makes them rarely worthwhile, if other options are available.</p>
 
<p>Even brief conversation dispels those notions. Roland is not a silver-tongued charmer who leaves a trail of sighs and desire in his wake. Instead, a conversation with Allard generally leaves the impression that he is insightful, keenly observant, interested, self-aware, self-possessed, self-confident, and committed to understanding those around him. And when he is too direct, his ever-present partner, Leila, is there to act as the smooth, balming voice of diplomacy, etiquette, and taste.</p>

History is too serious to be left to historians.
~ Ian Macleod; "The Observer" (July 16, 1961)

Background

Aging, early 40's power players are nearly as common in Los Angeles as that tropiest of tropes, the Nebraska 8 wanna-be starlet. Men playing power games (both real and imagined) are among the most common dysfunctional figures that any denizen of LA is likely to come across. Allard looks that part. He dresses that part. Most of the time, an exotic, fetching woman named Leila can be found on his arm, so at first blush, he acts that part.

Even brief conversation dispels those notions. Roland is not a silver-tongued charmer who leaves a trail of sighs and desire in his wake. Instead, a conversation with Allard generally leaves the impression that he is insightful, keenly observant, interested, self-aware, self-possessed, self-confident, and committed to understanding those around him. And when he is too direct, his ever-present partner, Leila, is there to act as the smooth, balming voice of diplomacy, etiquette, and taste.

Tito y Tarantula ~ After Dark
Watching her
Strolling in the night so white
Wondering why
It's only after dark
In her eyes
A distant fire light burns bright
Wondering why
It's only after dark
I find myself in her room
Feel the fever of my doom
Falling falling
Through the floor
I'm knocking on the devil's door, yeah
