Musings of Lost Souls

These are the stories of those folks that have never had their fifteen minutes. They go to the Serendipity whenever they want something. Just around the corner...down the block...through the alley, Serendipity is always nearby. Just ask for Phae he's the owner/bartender. As you opened the door and entered through the portal...

Lettuce? (Phae)

"Well, the loo is over by the piana." Phae replied nodding toward the far end of the bar through the maze of tables that occupied the floor proper.

"Drink's on the way, I should have some lettuce behind behind the bar and that's a negative on spare patches. Sorry just gave out the last one." he added grinning tongue firmly in cheek. "

Walking back to the bar to fill the gentleman's order Phae ticked off the things he neede to mentally file about the man at the table.
1.) No eye- big deal
2.) The black box on the table- maybe that's where the eye is
3.) The watch- curious I wonder where he got it
4.) He had something under the table- I'll watch that

Crossing back around the open end of the bar he stopped one more in front of the young lady.

"You ok?" he asked before he noticed she had her head down. The soft snoring he heard answered his question for him. He also noticed that 3/4 of the bottle of Diablo was gone, the rest he was going to take to 'tableman'. Reaching beneath the bar he grabbed one of his sweatshirts flipped it out over her and drapped it over her letting it hang down her back. "Sweet dreams sleeping beauty".

"It's been a coupla years, what can I get for you this fine evening, Quint?" Phae asked the gent who had entered as he was approaching the 'tableman' and had lighted at the end of the bar.
