A hazy-looking yūrei girl that used to frequent this place a lot was asleep in the rafters. Regardless of what time it was wherever she came from this was probably very lazy of her, because ghosts don't need to sleep, right? Probably? Hey, I wouldn't know.

Sanghyeok wrote:Ichiro: Haven't heard of such a place. Is it in our universe?

Ichiro signaled to the bartender while he waited for Leo's response.

Ichiro: Pina colada, please.

Bartender: Wait a moment, it's coming soon.

Ichiro turned his attention back to Leo.

“It’s the capital of the Galactic Republic. Is your planet a part of that?” Leo asked.

Ichiro: Not at all.

At this moment, he noticed a dim light above them.

Ichiro: Hey Leo, you see that up there? Looks rather odd.

Ichiro: Hey Leo, you see that up there? Looks rather odd.

“Are you from the Milky Way? Coruscant is near the center of the galaxy.”
Leo explained as Ichiro mentioned a light. He looked up and saw a strange light. “No idea what that is. It is very odd.”

Ichiro: Honestly, I've never heard of it. Are you from around here?

The bartender places the pina colada in front of Ichiro's seat.

Bartender: One pina colada.

Ichiro: Thanks man. I've been looking forward to it.

He looks at Leo.

Ichiro: Do you want something? I can get you something if you want.

"Based on what you said it seems likely we could be from different universes." Leo replied as Ichiro asked for a drink and asked if Leo wanted anything

"That's very kind of you. I could use another tequila sunrise." Leo told Ichiro.

'Well damn my only friend that was here is dead or gone, ah well not like i'm here much anyway so yeah....'

A revenant of Lowblood walks into the establishment, sitting at the bar counter, placing his warblade to his side he speaks.

"I am not dead, not yet. The existence of my nation, and those of the nation are in a frozen state. I am the ghost that roams these lands."

He looks around and chuckles to himself.

"This place however, this place is dead."

"Yep and you look craaaaaaazy dead too"

"I don't know maybe I am. Or perhaps close. I don't know anymore." He nods "Though our kind is known for being dead I can assure you i am far from it. I have the warm flesh, pretty sure i still bleed. I am healthy, like a average Lowbloodian... Do you want an example?" He asks almost eagerly

'Oh right we don't die we just pause or freeze or go into statis. Yeah this place is dead reminds me of other places I frequent. Guess I'm the dead one and another year is coming to an end.'

"And yet we are still here in this saloon. It's silly. But understandable."

A dapper gent, with grey hair and a dignified air wanders into the saloon.

He is wearing a dress uniform of some old type, obviously copying European fashions from a century ago.

It is covered in dust and dirt and he keeps trying to brush it off as he steps through the doorway.

"Quite...so this is the place where someone can actually get a drink these days...right then..."

eyeing the others in the bar...

"Bar keep, can one get a decent whisky in this place...I'm told that Vrakian vodka is no longer sold..."

He stands at the bar and nods his head..."Quite...the unlively place around here...seems everyone wants to start a war or post on Piffle net...or some such..."

An obvious android, about twice the size of a normal human, wanders aimlessly into the saloon.

It scans all of the lifeforms inside and computes that they do not pose a threat, it stations itself in the corner of the room. One could almost mistake it as a statue; if not for it periodically opening it's eyes to scan the environment once more.

"No longer sold eh?" Vixen walks out of the shadows and claps his hands together. "I could check if we have such a drink. After all this is a bar in which the multiverse folds, i can get you just about anything as rules don't exist here."
The demon grins

Eyes start to look at the machine from the shadows it rests at "What are you looking for?"

"Dangerous individuals." The machine states bluntly.

A voice emanates from seemingly inside the machine. "Ah shut it Grunt, we're safe here. You can stop scanning the place."

"Fine." Grunt maneuvers himself into a sort of sitting position against the wall, but again he looks painfully robotlike doing so.

A girl wearing a dark dress confidently walked into the building. The somewhat formal dress contrasted greatly with a pair of hiking boots, a rough-looking knapsack, and, for some reason, a balalaika slung over the girl's back. After making it a few steps past the door, she tripped and fell flat on the ground, before quickly standing back up and dusting herself off.

Oddly, this girl would get picked up by the machine's scanners shortly before he ceased using them, marking her as a dangerous species. Exactly how this person was supposed to be a threat to anyone was not clear.

"Hold it." Grunt stood from his sitting position and grabbed the girl's shoulders.

Again a voice emanates from inside Grunt. "Eh? What is it Grunt?"

Grunt says nothing, and proceeds to scan the content's ofbthe girl's knapsack.

Grunt says nothing, and proceeds to scan the content's ofbthe girl's knapsack.

The knapsack contained a variety of strange trinkets, some tools, some snacks, some video games, an old camera... perhaps some of it could be used as a weapon, but there didn't seem to be anything in there that tripped the alarm. It actually seemed to be the girl itself that had caught the attention of the scanners. Assuming they could differentiate between the different species of the multiverse, they would identify the fox-eared girl as a kumiho, a being known for preying on humans. Usually just a mythical creature, but apparently not wherever she came from.

"Hey! Why'd you grab me like that? Am I not allowed in here or something? I don't think I've done anything to be banned from here. Though there was that hot chocolate incident..."

Apparently, the now-identified monster was oblivious to the reason she was being stopped.

Leo couldn’t help but notice the commotion going on and walked over to the girl. “ Is everything all right ma’am?” He asked as he realized this girl looked very familiar.

"Grunt. Release." The voice inside the robot ordered. Grunt released his grip and stood motionless as a sort of door opened up on his chest, revealing a teenage girl. "Apologies, my partner can be a little rough." The girl stepped out and closed Grunt's chest behind her.

"I dunno, sir. I haven't been in here 60 seconds and already I'm being restrained."

Calimama wrote:"Grunt. Release." The voice inside the robot ordered. Grunt released his grip and stood motionless as a sort of door opened up on his chest, revealing a teenage girl. "Apologies, my partner can be a little rough." The girl stepped out and closed Grunt's chest behind her.

She was a bit surprised by what she just witnessed, but was more curious about her new acquaintance than anything else.

"It's alright. What was that about, anyway? Oh, and what's your name? I'm Z!"

The kumiho, probably not much older than the girl who had been inside the robot, seemed to be forgiving of the whole situation, even if she didn't really understand what was going on, or why this person had been piloting(?) a robot.

The girl noticed the kumiho's perplexed look on her face. "Name's Chloe, and this here's Grunt. We're what you might call bounty hunters. I programmed Grunt to scan the police database for any wanted criminals, say... he did react to your scan." Chloe had a deceiving look on her face, before quickly smiling at Z. "Well you don't look like a criminal to me, probably Grunt's scanner is on the fritz. And before you ask - yes, I can pilot him, but usually he just carries me around, walking succcckkks.

"Bounty hunters? That's pretty cool. And yeah, I'm pretty sure I haven't committed any crimes. Ha, walking can get pretty tiring, yeah. Luckily my friends and I have a van to get around in, but it breaks down a lot. We've been traveling between the old towns in Siberia. Most of them are abandoned in my timeline... this place is where a lot of different worlds meet, yeah? It never seems like anyone's from the same place. Every now and then I find an entrance to the saloon and come to hang out a bit."

Awfully friendly for what she apparently was. Maybe she didn't even know what she was, if such a thing could be possible. In any case there was hardly anything she could do to hurt anyone, especially when there was a large robot standing by.

"Wait a minute, Grunt! Weren't we chasing that guy in alpha 1-6? How the hell did we end up here?" "Don't know." Grunt says dryly. "Heh, that's why I call him Grunt, he may be conscious, but it doesn't make him any smarter." Grunt takes about thirty seconds to flip Chloe off. "Just kidding big guy, you know I love ya."
