She chuckled, "I would pay an exorbitant amount of money to get you out on that dance floor." she said as she jerked her thumb towards it. "The cloak swooshing out behind you and you twirled." she giggled and took the menu back, "And of course we have whiskey, you want it neat or on the rocks?" she asked him. 

"Bring me the bottle," He growled at her.

"There isn't enough money in the world to get me dancing. I'll stick to this corner and try not to be seen."

He did have his eye on a blonde off yonder. But picking up women in this sort of club wasn't his specialty. He preferred dive bars and pubs. He was here for the sole reason on visiting Rayln and supporting her business.

She grinned and gave a mock salute, "Aye, aye." she told him before turning on her heel and heading back to the bar. She checked on the people sitting there and topped off a few drinks before grabbing the bottle of whiskey and two glasses. She paused for a second staring at the counter and then laughed before picking something up and tucking it behind her back. She came back over and set the glasses down and the bottle before pulling out the paper pirate hat and popping it on Ronin 's head. "You can have this as well. Don't worry, I won't charge you for it." she said with a laugh as she opened the bottle and poured some into her glass. 

Ronin sat there looking ridiculous, with the paper pirate hat perched lopsidedly on his hood. He allowed himself to chuckle, before pulling it off of his head and lighting it on fire with his zippo. He then used the burning hat to light his cigarette.

"Thank you. I value your gifts."

He downed his glass, and then held it out for another filling.

"Get me about seven more shots, and then we can talk about dancing and paper pirate hats."

She topped off his glass and took a sip of her drink, "Seven more of these and I'll be dead." She told him with a laugh. "And thats not nice, I spent time making that hat!" She told him as she pushed the ashtray towards him. "Jesus, don't burn the place down." she said, "I'm still making payments on the building." She told him with a frown. 

Ronin dropped the flaming hat into the ashtray with a grin.

"I wouldn't let that happen. Unless you cross my business, then I'd have to torch the place. But I wouldn't use a paper pirate hat to start it."

He took a long drag from his cigarette, nearly killing it in one hit. He tossed back his second glass of whiskey and killed the cigarette in the next drag.

"How was the move to New York? Get everything over there alright? It's good you can come back here and still see to things at the club occasionally. Both my businesses are relatively close to each other; Philly and New York. Just a short hop back and forth."

She groaned and sunk down in her seat, "God, its a nightmare." she told him, "Truthfully, I'm loving New York." she told him, "But the flights from there to here with layovers in Chicago?" She asked him, "Its a bloody nightmare." she shook her head, "I don't know what the hell I was thinking when I decided I needed more than one business to keep me occupied. Now I'm running around like a chicken with its head cut off, and never have any time to myself." she sighed, "But at least its keeping me busy, I guess." she tapped her finger to her chin, "I don't think I've actually ever been to Philly." She told him, "No reason to visit."

Being new in the motor city I decided to get some fresh air and stretch my legs by walking through the city. A friend of my, Rayln, who I met back in NYC supposedly owned a bar down here called the Neverland Bar and I decided to stop by and get a drink. I have admit from the outside it didn't look like much but when I stepped inside THAT'S where all the action was. I hung my jacket up on the coat rack and made my way to the bar and grabbed a stool.

Back in Detroit, Ilammo headed to the Neverland Bar to hang out seeing that it was ran by Rae, the lady who was also running the ice cream shop back in Chicago.

Entering the door as quietly as possible, he made his way to the far end of the bar and ordered himself a glass of warm milk. He see's Rae entertaining a guy, so he just waited for the opportunity to say hello while he's still in DT.

After getting of the flight from New York city Tesla walked down the streets of Detroit. While deep in thought, Tesla remembered Rae telling him he needed to come visit her bar in Detroit. After a few minutes he finally saw the sign outside saying "The Neverland Bar".

Tesla stepped through the door and walked to an empty table in the middle of the bar. He sits down and asks Rae:

"Could I have a glass of whisky please?"

Rae got Cristian seated and his drink before winking at Ilamo. She was about to head over to say hello to her friend when another man walked in. She gave Ilamo a little shrug and grabbed the bottle of whiskey to pour a bit into a glass for Tesla. She hopped over the bar and sauntered over to him. "Well Hi there." She said with a grin before setting the glass down in front of him. "If you need anything else, just give me a shout." she told him. 

She headed back to the bar and headed back behind it. "If I keep this up," she said out loud, "I won't ever have to worry about my weight." She said with a laugh. She moved over to where Ilamo was sitting and leaned against the bar, "So, what can I get you, dear?" She asked him  

SpikeS strolls into the bar and after attaining a drink or five he flops himself out onto a couch.

Within a few minutes, he’s in a dream and while he hears the Rayln chattering away faintly in the background, he sees a flat desolate land.

SpikeS wanders out into it exploring for some sign of life. He spends what seems like hours walking in a world with no path, on ground with no texture. He blinks his eyes a few times to see that everything is different shades of gray, and nothing more. He continues his search for something other than the sameness of it all. Every step he takes is like the last step he took. Everything he sees is exactly the same.

The horizon ahead of him doesn’t move, and it all seems static to him. After a while, thirst begins to hit him, and in a world of nothing, that isn’t good. His pace seems to slow down. His breathing eventually becomes shallower, and he takes a seat. In time, he feels too faint to sit up, and he lies back and looks up at the grey sky. He focuses on small dots forming in his vision for a bit. He then raises his hands up. He looks over his hands in shock. He rubs his eyes, but he cannot see them. He can only see the landscape and the grey.

In a panic, he tries to run, but there is no new discovery for him, and he ends up huffing and puffing back on the ground. He feels like he is going to pass out from exhaust and dehydration, and before his eyes shut the grey out, he realizes, he is the grey.

SpikeS wakes up and lights a cigarette. He decides to go seek out a strip club to find some new colour, leaving Rayln's bar with no tip because clearly someone spiked his drink. 

After enjoying being able to sit down and ordering his whiskey, Tesla sees Rae moving towards him with a bottle of whisky. 

Rae replies: "Well Hi there", and pours Tesla his whisky. 

Rae then walks back to the bar. Tesla takes a sip of his whisky. He then starts think about New York and Detroit, the things that have been going on, and starts trying to figure out his future. 

When SpikeS fell asleep Rae nimbly hopped over the bar and held a finger up to her mouth, winking at the people at the bar. "I'll be just a moment." she whispered as she uncapped a large black permanent marker. She tipped toed over to where he was and leaned over his sleeping form. Shaking her head in disappointed that he couldn't handle one single drink, he quickly drew a very impressive french curly moustache on his face. Holding her hand over her mouth to muffle the sound of her giggles she quickly tip toed away to go back to the safety of the bar. "Oh, he's going to be so mad when he realizes." she told the people at the bar. 

When he finally woke up and left she let her laughter go, sliding down the cabinets under the back counter to the floor where she wrapped her arms around her stomach and laughed until she thought she might actually die. "Oh, oh god. I hope he has an important meeting to go to." she gasped out before putting her head on her knees, her body convulsing with her special brand of hilarity. 

After a long day of shakedowns and drug dealings, Niki found herself in need of a drink. She walked in and saw Rae drawing a mustache on Spike. She laughed to herself wishing she had a camera to capture the moment.

She looked across the bar and spotted Tesla, one of her former crew mates - She motioned to Rae to pour 3 shots. One for her, one for Rae and one for Tesla. She made her way across the bar and sat down next to Tesla. "Long time no see!!," She said as she gave him a hug. She nodded at Rae to keep the drinks coming.

It had been weeks since Rae was last able to make it to Detroit. She pushed open the doors on the Neverland bar and sighed, the place was dusty from being locked up so much. Maybe she had been a bit ambitious in thinking she could keep it running without any assistance from anyone else. With a sigh she walked in and started to make a list in her head of what needed to be done. It might take her a few hours, but she'd somehow manage to get it done. 

Once everything was sorted a few hours later she poured herself a drink and looked around. Although Zizi hadn't done much of anything, she was still a part of the place and Rae's heart ached at the thought of her friend. With a sigh she tossed the drink back, straightened her fairy wings and was ready for yet another day of absolute hilarity. 

He pulled up a seat at the bar and greeted Rayln with a smile, "How's it going sweet cheeks?" It was about as informal as he could get but it felt right at that moment with an already lit cigarette dangling from his mouth. He offered her a drag and pulled off his jacket.

She raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Well bless my soul," she said raising a hand to her heart and giving a delicate sniff to the air. "Did you... Shower?" she asked him as she leaned a bit closer for another sniff. "Well lord have mercy, what's the occasion?" she asked as she reached for the vodka, knowing what it was he was going to end up ordering. 

"Ahh! You know me too well Rayln." He said as she reached for the vodka. "Make it a double if you would be so kind, I'm feeling like today is going to be a good day." He rolled up the sleeves of his shirt and nodded vigorously. "I got to thinking about what you said and you're right, I've just got to cheer up. So after our little chat I went home, slept, sobered up, showered and made myself all presentable like. how do you like the new suit? Got it made to measure by a guy I know down on Main Street. He said it makes me look thinner, taller and classier. I don't know about that but i like it none-the-less."
