He has been extremely bored. What does an injured pig do with his time? Luckily Bar gave him something to play with.
It looks like two toilet rolls wrapped in wire and a radish.

((OOM: The Council of Crosstime Tims. Serious Stuff.))
The door flies open, revealing a rather.. colorful figure. Spandex, shades of blue, with a high collar and a black Robin style mask. He tumbles on through, landing on his feet, as ever.
For here, is a superhero of long standing, one of the first of a generation to go beyond the sidekick stage. Once upon a time the youthful ward of Playboy millionare John Constantine, Tim Hunter now stands on his own two feet. No longer is he Sparky, the Sorcerors Apprentice, sidekick to the great Hellblazer. Now, he is Hellspawn, leader of the New Mystic Youth, and hero in his own right.
He is also extremely confused. One minute he's dealing with a traitor in his midst, the next, BAM, there's this weird Council of him's, saying he's been chosen to come... here?
Someone might want to explain to the kid in the mask.

If you're looking for someone to talk to, there's a young man in a back booth. He has his nose in a book by Robert Frost, thanks to someone's reccomendation, but he'd still far rather meet you. Not really an introvert.
People walking by may notice a subtle drop in temperature around him. Drinks set on the table in front of him will be frozen. Fair warning.

The man likes mornings. Perhaps because people tend to be less guarded when they are still tired. -This explains why he is up and about today. Of course, it really doesn't justify his walking outdoors.
Ah well, that's where he wanted to be, and so he is. Sure, there are more people inside, but why not be unconventional right along with him, and wander out into the cold?

"...Bar...person...thing...keep?" Carl eyes the bar, "Listen, um-sorry about hittin' you yesterday-ya gotta understand I'm under alot of pressure and um-"
Feeling utterly ridiculous, "Right-could you uh-recommend something? House special?"
and to prove his point, that's a 20 dollar bill he's got there in his hand.

An' I reckon, as he goes wanderin' around th'room, if you're sittin' at a table he's sittin' down right there with you, an' same if you're at a booth, or at th'Bar, or on one've them couches by th'fire.
An' if you ain't at any of 'em, well, chances are you'll find him where it's nice an' warm, whittlin' away at a stick that may or may not someday be more'n what it is.

The Devil walks into a bar.
Ok. The Devil floats into a bar. Sort of. If you look too quickly it may not appear as though her feet touch the ground. Of course, if you look too closely, they will.
Did we mention the Devil is a woman? Well, she is. For now.
So, to sum up, the Devil, a 7'5" woman, ducks under the doorframe and walks/floats into a bar. But not just any bar. And she whistles.
"Well. Ain't this something."

Cold tea sits next to his elbow as he busily jots down symbols on the scroll in front of him. He is bundled up in thermo underwear under a toga and a cloak. There are gloves on the seat next to him long forgotten.

Giles had a small smile on his face. He had taken a peek at the recent notice about Blodwen.
The news of Claudia was disturbing. Reminded him of the Anointed One from his world.
Hopefully this one wasn't as powerful however.
Still, he was more content than he had been of late.
While he had some reading by him with his tea and brekkers, it was definitely pleasure reading today.
Though granted he would find ancient treatises on early ritualistic practices of the Druids, or complex tomes on comparing Egyptian and Roman religious structures, and how the societies interlapped as his idea of pleasure reading.

~Sarah had given up on beadwork for the time being, and was sitting over by the observation window with a banana split that was mostly forgotten and a book she hadn't read in a while, that had apparently grabbed her attention once again, go ahead and interrupt her though, she's almost finished.
~Adric was here and there, gathering abandoned dishes to take back to the kitchen for washing, though he'd welcome conversation, he's like that. You might have to poke him though, because he's discovered something better than number puzzles, and that's headphones and whatever assortment of music Bar had given him.
~Anoia was thumbing through her encyclopedia of kitchen utensils once more and occasionally rummaging in an apron pocket, coming up with something and looking it up in the book. So far nothing she had matched the pictures, but she'd be happy to give them away if someone could tell her what they were.
~Jane was once again having an entirely too healthy lunch, this time a grilled chicken sandwich with cheese, fries again and a cup of soda that was almost bigger than her head. What? She'd skipped dinner and breakfast, she was hungry. She'll probably talk to people though, as long as they don't try to steal her fries. That's a good way to get yourself snarked at.
(taadaa! Because Cass made me do it!! *cough*)

[OOM: What came between]
Swirling lights of many pastel colors fill much of the room. They swirl and coalesce near the Door, then clear to reveal Felix. On seeing where he is, the Adept scowls and begins to mutter.
"This isn't the Aerie. This is Milliways. We should be in the Aerie. We lit the subbeacons, the dragon made the telepad appear, and Ivan examined it and he said it led to the Aerie. Then Sheba said we needed more... more power, so we left, we beat Valukar, we beat Star Magician, we beat Sentinel, we beat Dullahan (hate Dullahan), we got the summon tablets they guarded. We came back, we stepped on the telepad, Ivan cast the Psynergy, but this isn't the Aerie."
By this point Felix has turned around and jerked open the Door. The open doorway is full of crackling energy that reminds one of the swirling lights a moment before.
"That's not the Aerie, either."
Tentatively Felix sticks his hand through the doorway, then draws it back quickly. It doesn't look any different, but it obviously hurts a great deal. He directs yellow motes of light from the other hand into the hurting one, but it doesn't make a difference.
"OW! Venus, that hurts!"

The front door flies open, and Imp comes in, looking just a bit panicked about something. Only a little, though, and he relaxes when he sees where he is.
I sing my song to the wide open spaces
As it happens, this is the bar he was looking for.
I sing my heart out to the infinite sea
The relief, however, is extremely short-lived. He was coming here to get away from something, but it seems to have followed him in instead. And instead of getting easier to fight off...
I sing my visions to the sky-high mountains
...it seems to be taking over. This is a problem, this is a big problem, he realizes that much, but if coming here doesn't work, he's not at all sure what to do about it.
And suddenly, to the casual observer, he appears to relax. It's also possible he's slightly bluer than he was, but not in any sort of unhealthy way.
Listen, we think we have found you...
Music with rocks in is running the show now, and it thinks it's going to like this place.

She's been rather productive recently, it seems, for she is sporting a bright red rabbit skin hat, which matches her gifted gloves. And unmatched as they may be with her hair, the accessories do look rather striking against her black sheepskin coat, over similiraly monochrome sweater and pants.
She's dressed for the outdoors, and that's where she goes directly, hardly stopping in the bar at all.

Sometimes not knowing what you want is depressing, but sometimes it's liberating. There's a certain freedom that goes along with no responsibilities, and really, Gren can't imagine death bringing a whole lot of responsibilities.
At least he can't imagine it today. Arm in arm with Julia -- his friend, his confidante, his almost-love, the shore to his ocean -- he walks into the bar from upstairs. Again, he has no idea how long it's been since he was down here, though he thinks it's only been a couple of days. It's not that he has any fear of being out and about with people.

Snowball just couldn't resist taking the solenoid apart.
He has decided to improve it. Instead of a basic toilet roll wrapped in a lot of wire (with a range of about two bar stools) there are now four long twigs strapped under a heck of a lot more wire to make it bigger. He tried filling it with spoons to see if they were iron.
They weren't.
So now he's dropping the spoons repeatedly on the floor to demagnetise them in case he gets in trouble with whoever owns them.

Every step forward is something to celebrate, he thinks, and besides, he's tired of being injured. He's ready for it to be over. He's at that stage of healing that some shrink would probably label denial, but Spike's always called it the get the fuck over it and move your sorry ass milestone. Plus, he wants to get Beth back to Mars to see Doc and he knows she won't go if he's not doing better.
So he's doing better. Like it or not, he's doing better. True or not, he's doing better.
He might not be moving with his usual careless ease, but he's moving nonetheless.
Taking on a rival Syndicate by himself aside, he kind of can't wait to get back to Mars. Their trip got interrupted and he wasn't ready to come back. Of course, it might be that he's never going to be ready to come back once they get out there again. But for right now he's made one concession to what happened: his left arm is in a sling. He promised Beth he wouldn't overuse it, because that's when the bullet hole opens up again and starts to bleed.
See, Slim, I can behave when I want. I swear I can.

They are silent for a moment, Mercutio's gaze on Benvolio's almost fierce. And then he breaks the tension with a sharp nod and another hard hug, before stepping back.

In no particular order.

*Raph is at the bar nursing a beer.
He's not damp, so he's clearly been inside for a while.
Must be cold though, why else would he be wearing those fingerless gloves with the silver rune embroidery?*

Honestly, if she knew there was house dropping about, she wouldn't even venture out much now.
But since she's one of the most antisocial creatures known to exist, she doesn't.
Which is why Elphaba is curled up, knees against her chest, in the corner of a chair reading.
She's also humming, softly, and not really aware of it.

Even when Mal's planetside, he's hardly ever off of Serenity for long.
Besides, he missed having liquor. An abbey is not the best place for finding some, you know. Maybe he'll bring some back, even.
Otherwise, he is holding a video capture in one hand at a table, a pocket-sized plain book to one side.
Steal a grape at your own peril.

Ben likes the House of Arch. It's quiet when he wants it, nice and warm and safe. It feels safe enough that he even risked opening up to the Force, and since nothing terribly bad happened, he's open to it now, just faintly, as he wanders out into the main bar.
He had been heading for the stairs, up to the sims, but ran into a bit of a distraction on the way. A certain pilot playing with a bunch of toy ships (no, setting up a very accurate battle, really).
Yeah, that's right. Wes Janson and Ben Skywalker, in the same place at the same time, recreating what must be the Old New Republic Alliance Battle of Yavinhothendor, from the looks of the ships.
"Killik dartships incoming!"
"What? No bugs, kid! I said no bugs!"
"You're the one with Ewok crews in your ships..."
[ooc: mun should go to bed at midnight GMT. mun probably won't, but might, so fair warning. :)]

On a table are a packet of fruit shortcake biscuits, a completed epithelium jigsaw and a sign.
The doctor is in
Next to the table is Guppy, who has music playing on his cd walkman and earphones in one ear.
Most of the time he watches the bar. Now and again he has a biscuit.

Utena slept through her alarm.
And then she forgot dinner.
And feel asleep again.
So it is a rather bemused, cranky looking girl coming down the stairs, buttoning up her uniform jacket, and because Utena has never been all that observant at the best of times, she completely misses seeing the young man by the door until after she's gotten her tea from Bar.
And when she does, her eyes widen.

Sharpe is sitting in a booth, the dog out of sight and asleep in the other side.
