Am I mistaken, or have we had a bit less down-time lately, between the curses?

As I've seen significantly less people chained together today, I suppose I'd best take the opportunity to address the Network.

My bar, the Wolf's Den, is currently hiring; preference will be given to those with experience, but I'm willing to give newcomers a chance, provided you are competent.

And-- needless to say, if you've an objection to our clientele, then you need not apply.

Well, by and large my patrons are human, or near enough. Keeping creatures on hand that might eat them seems like poor planning.

[thermonuclear_birdbrain]

So many humans around here.

Yeah yeah okay, so I guess I can't work for you guys, then?

[defies_reason]

Discriminatory hiring for a business focused on acceptance and diversity seems highly suspect. Do you have any experience? What are your plans regarding devouring people?

[thermonuclear_birdbrain]

Eh, nobody dies here, so hunting humans is a little weird. Also, if you hired me, why would I eat anyone from your bar? It's really silly to cause trouble where you work -- may as well take it outside so you don't mess up your job.

Experience doing what? If it's a bar, it's got people who make the drinks but also people who kick troublemakers out, right? I'm really strong, and I'm patient, and back home I had a job where I do a lot of manual labor and work with evil spirits who won't settle down. I'm pretty good at keeping peace and all that.

Also, going way back to the start of your announcement here, what kind of people go to your bar? I figured with how you said it, they would be monsters or something. I don't think I can think of anyone who I would have a problem with, who wasn't trying to kill me or something.

I'll admit I'm not sure I'm comfortable with the thought of my employees eating anyone, off or on the premises.

So far I've not needed a bouncer. [Which is to say, most people who don't know him assume that's who Isaak is.] But perhaps that might change, particularly dependent upon curses and the like.

I wouldn't expect any particular violence from my patrons. It's a gay bar. Some people are bothered by that, though the City by and large has been quite accommodating.

[thermonuclear_birdbrain]

Hey, now, all youkai eat humans, it's just how my world works. Anyway, if you don't need a bouncer, I can keep looking around somewhere else.

Gay bar. [She's putting two and two together, given what little she knows about bars.] Oh, okay, sure. Is it guys-only or anything, or can girls show up too?

[defies_reason]

If the need comes up I'll keep you in mind. Perhaps somewhere Underground might be a bit less concerned with your potential dietary habits?

Thus far the bulk of our patronage has been male, but I'm more than happy to have women come as well.
