"Um...excuse me? If I could have everyone's attention for a minute."

The hustle and bustle of the bar continues a pace, as if he'd said nothing at all.

"Hello? Can I have your attention, please."

Still nothing. There are drinks being drunk and foods being eaten and hub-bubs to bub.

"Okay...that's it."

A near ear piercing whistle makes it's way through the din. You'd almost expect a fleet of taxis to pull up along side the dirty-blonde haired man standing behind Bar. After all, that's what whistles like that are cultivated for in the first place.

"Thank you. Uh,...I guess I have an announcement to make. Um...first things first. Apologies to those who've had questionable...uh...bar-fare in the last couple of days. There's a refund coming your way if you were inconvenienced in any way. It's been a rough week of transition for everyone involved, and we appreciate your patience.

This brings me to my second point, um...for the time being...."

At this turn of phrase he winces slightly, as if someone had just poked him rather hard in the brain.

"...I will be assuming the role of Head Barman. So uh...yeah. If you've got any concerns, let me know I'll do what I can. If you have any complaints...please keep in mind that I am a highly trained ninja that can kill you in your sleep.

Okay with that said...the Bar is open."

He quirks a half smile.

"Honestly? I don't have that much to say that can't be summed up thusly."

Now he pulls a jaw dropping stare of amazement.

"Is there anything I can do?"

[mnt_mike]

"Are you on duty?"

Oh that's a dirty smile right there. Look out, Sara.

[lvpd_sidle]

"Depends on what you mean by duty."

Ooooh, that's an evil smile, Mike. Care is advised.

[mnt_mike]

"Do you get....handcuffs at work?"

[lvpd_sidle]

"Fairly often. The cops carry them. In fact, I confiscated a pair of leopard-print fuzzy ones from a scene the other day."

[mnt_mike]

"MMmm. Nothing says sexy like swiped from a crime scene. Tell me more!"

[lvpd_sidle]

"Taken from the scene of a murder in a crackhouse. Call me old fashioned, but I prefer to acquire my toys from Good Vibrations."

[mnt_mike]

"Those crackwhores, they sure do know how to party."

Mike stops for a second to see if he remembers Good Vibrations from somewhere.
He snaps his fingers in recognition.

"Oh yes. They are perveyors of fun to be had by all."
