A man walks in.

He's moderately tall, black hair a little long on top and curly, falling into his face. Blue eyes look down at the bundle in his arms, the little tuft of similarly black hair sticking out the top the only indication of what it might be other than the absolute adoration in his eyes. Nestled in the crook of his arm is tall golden staff, hook on the end gleaming in the low light.

He's not dressed up really. There's a Hawaiian shirt, open and showing a wifebeater underneath, accompanied by a black leather jacket tied around his waist. Green goggles sit atop his head at a rakish angle. He's in loose slacks, accompanied by black boots, and he looks like he's had a long day.

"Hello, Kyle...how're you tonight? Daddy's home from extra work and Mikey and Tony are all gone and it's just you and..."

He looks up.

Blinks in confusion.

"Me?"

She pets one hand over the surface of the bar.

"Right, then, introductions. Bar, sweetheart, this is Jack Knight, and his son Kyle, and he's fresh in and fresh Bound as well. Jack, this is Bar, and she's really quite nice as long as you're respectful. If you're not, you'll be enjoying the attentions of an irate redheaded bartender who's rather fond of explosives... not to mention Bar's fiance, Broom."

Eris grins.

"Go on, then, Jack. Say hello. Ask her for something, or tell her what you want in the room... and don't worry about the tab yet, you can pay for it later, or get a job here somewhere, or make an arrangement to have your tab covered." She shrugs. "I know I have some of Mine on my tab, and Echo as well..."

He peers carefully at the bar.

"Okay, um, Miss Bar...would, uh, it be possible to get some baby supplies for Kyle here? And, uh, a room? I don't have the money right now, but I'm good for it as soon as I get home, I promise."

Eris chuckles, and leans down to whisper something to the Bar for a long moment.

When she straightens, there's a key marked for room 47 sitting in front of Jack.

"There... a single room, ensuite, large enough to make room for the crib in it... just up the stairs and around to the left, you'll find."

Eris smiles.

"And don't worry about paying for your room, Jack. Take care of that boy of yours, though. Family's important."

He nods, smiles, and takes the key. A few minutes later, the staff, glowing faintly, follows him up the stairs.
