She'd closed the place up for some good time. Well, it might have been a good time if time actually ran as it should here. The Black Rose Tavern & Inn rode a rift in space and time, making it possible to bring in people of everywhere and everywhen. Now though, with her renovations made during her mother's absence, Kimiko was standing in the middle of the dance floor, wearing her favorite shirt with her favorite dark wash jeans and her favorite boots. Her hair was down, covering the scar that ran across the front of her neck for the most part, her POW/MIA flag on her left wrist showed though, and her newest addition was still under cellophane on her right arm. An ace of spades with a .338 lapua magnum round coming through the center of the card.

A look around, and she pulled a silver pocket watch from the watch pocket of her jeans and clicked it open. "Alright pretty girl, time to wake up now. Let's see if ya still got it..." She said, then clicked the watch again. For a moment, the shudder was a little rougher than it should have been, and she grabbed hold of something solid just in case the door got yanked off and the time vortex came trying to suck everything out. In retrospect, she'd done this before, and should probably have tied herself down ahead of time. Soon the shuddering stopped though, and she let go of what she'd grabbed hold of, then looked down at the multiple faces of the watch. "Silly girl... You had me there for a second." She patted the stage then moved for the front door and opened it. Yep, definitely not America Twenty-twelve anymore. She shut the door as she clicked the watch shut and slipped it back into her pocket, then rounded the bar to fix herself a celebratory Jack and Coke.

Moving elegantly, as if he was preforming a dance Kaito moved his hands in a swift and rhythmic motion moving water from the flowing river next to him. Moving his hands over each other in a circular motion he jumped up into the air with a flip; landing on his feet he thrust his hands out in front of him as water flew toward the young man standing in front of him knocking him off his feet and onto his back. With a loud gasp and holler the young man flew close to fifteen feet away. Kaito stood in a ready stance still twirling water in his hands, his eyes locked onto the man. The young man looked to him with wide eyes, got to his feet and took off running. Kaito watched with a smirk on his lips as the water in his hands soon evaporated. Once the young man was out of sight Kaito turned around and grabbed his bag. Slinging the bag over his shoulder he began to walk down the side of the river until he came across a dirt path. Stepping onto the path he continued quietly yet swiftly down the path until he reached a clearing. A large tree stood in the distance with a spiral stair case leading up to a building in the tree. Kaito looked on toward the building in the tree and started to move faster. Once he reached the tree he looked upon the staircase and started to make his way up the many stairs until he reached the doors of the building. Placing he hands on the doorknob he pushed the door open and stepped inside. His eyes scanning the area before him.

Isaac flashed himself into the room. He had been absent from Gaia for the better part of three years, popping up only every now and again. Now, he stood in the humble establishment, looking around with a slender eyebrow quirked upward in amusement. It had taken the better part of the first two years of his seclusion to grip the powers that had been bestowed on him by the Malevolent Deity those years ago, and he's only been learning to actually master them for the last year and a half.

That's why he was here.

He wasn't trying to flash himself into that particular tavern, but while he was here, he may as well have a drink.

Accompanying him was the lingering smell of the sea and the fresh scent of ozone. It permeated the room. He was dressed in a blue vest, a black coat, form-fitting black pants, and a pair of black boots. His hair was black, streaked with electric blue that tumbled into his face.

Sighing, he strolled across the room and took up a seat at the bar where he waited to be served.

[ Sorry. I'm really rusty. ]

Whilst she was sipping at her fresh-made Jack and Coke, the wind chime above the door sounded out delicately and she looked up to see a guy come in. She just laughed a little to herself. "Just couldn't wait to fill with people again could you Rose?" She asked the building as she set the glass down on the bar. "Hello, welcome to the black rose," She said just after the other man and phased into the room, "I'm Kimiko, owner and bartender. You name it, I can probably mix it." With that, she leaned on her hands against the edge of the counter.

Isaac looked at the woman from behind his shades. Rapping his knuckles on the table for a minute, he thought about what he wanted to drink. "I'll take a glass of your finest white wine."

He tapped his chin for a moment before adding, "Actually, just bring me the whole bottle."

User Image -Kaito-
Kaito smiled and bowed slightly as he was greeted. He had noticed another man just sort of pop into the room out of nowhere. Kaito just watched curiously, his mind was in wonder about the powers this man may possess. Looking over to the fire place on a far off wall he stepped toward it and walked until he was in front of it. Kneeling down onto one knee and placed his hand out in front of him and moved his hand over the fire with a more ridged, yet elegant movement. With doing so fire sat in the palm of his hand, the light flicker of the fire made him smile. Twirling his fingers gently and in a simple rhythm the fire began to move in a spinning motion. Kaito did this for only a few seconds before moving his fingers toward the fire swiftly sending the fire in his hand back to its original place. Standing to his feet Kaito moved from the fire to the bar and took a seat three seats down from the man who phased into the building. Here he sat patiently and waited for the woman behind the bar to finish serving the man.

"Alright then... Bottle it is." She said, before picking up her drink and carrying it with her through the doorway to the kitchen. In there, she took a sip of the drink, then set it down on the long prep island, and gave a flick of her wrist toward one of the smaller ones, which moved itself to the side to show a trap door. Soon, Kimiko had the door lifted and was down the stairs, going through the wine before finally pulling a bottle off the shelf and moving back up the stairs. The prep island moved itself back and she was on her way back out to the bar, drinking her jack and coke as she walked. Back behind the counter, she set her drink back down, along with the bottle and pulled a corkscrew out from under the bar as she snapped her fingers at the wall behind her and one of the wine glasses came and settled itself in front of him. If there was a "Like a boss" for de-corking a wine bottle, it would have been how easy Kimiko made it look.

Taking the bottle with a gloved hand, his exposed digits wrapped around the neck and he lifted it to his lips. Taking a few sips he sat the bottle back down. Honestly, he didn't know why he drank anymore. Nothing happened. Never did he feel inebriated or even slightly tipsy, but it had become such a custom to drink it that he didn't really have a taste for anything else.

Sighing, he looked between the two people in the establishment. Everything seemed so different to him. His time in seclusion had definitely taken it's toll on his social abilities, and soon he found himself staring down at the bar quietly as he thought about how to approach this situation.

    Large, black and red wings flapped hard through the sky, flying towards the nearest inn.

    Black converse landed on the ground, his wings immediately folding behind him. The dragon entered inside, wearing nothing but his converse shoes, a pair of black jeans and a studded belt strung through the loops. He didn't bother wearing a shirt because of his wings. Taking them out was a pain and so was putting them back in. Dried blood covered his back. He would need to clean up, but it wasn't over yet.
    He stepped close to the bar, hands grasping onto the edge of the bar. The skin around the base of his wings began to break apart. The black, bat-like wings slowly sunk into his body, between his shoulder blades. "Aaaaggh!" The dragon would grit his teeth and bear with the pain.
    Fresh, red blood dripped down his back. He was a quick healer, so his skin had already started to push itself back together. The skin where his wings emerged was used so often that scars has formed, but they currently hid under the fresh layer of blood. [********] He cursed under his breath, finally loosening his grip on the counter. What a hassle...

She stood there and watched as he drank straight from the bottle. On that note, she lifted her glass. "Right, cheers then." She said and got a drink about the time someone came in. "Oi! You make a mess you clean it up! I'm the bartender, not the maid!" Right now she was all of that, but Kimiko was very... lazy. In her mind, she'd earned her fair share of lazy time. She was covered in scars from bullets, and the greatest trophy from war was the scar that ran around the front of her neck from one ear to the other. She set her now empty glass down on the counter and held a finger up to the guy that'd just put his wings away. Obviously, she wasn't phased by much anymore. She walked back into the kitchen, and came back out with a damp washcloth. "Here, clean yourself up." She said, tossing the washcloth onto the counter in front of him. "Much as I hate to say it, we get... kids," She almost choked on the word, "in here." Kimiko could. not. stand. kids.

                          Jayne Donovan came through the front door in what could only be described as a tornado of activity.

                          Her red hair was a mess and seemed to float in every direction. The dark fabric of her coat blew
                          first in one direction, then another. After a few seconds everything settled down, and Jayne
                          smoothed the fabric of her lighter tunic until it met her desires.

                          After scoping out the bar, the red-head meandered her way towards it, picking out a spot near the
                          end near another patron. Perching on the stool, Jayne laced her fingers together and placed them
                          on the bar, waiting for the tender to make her way over.

Kaito continued to sit patiently at the bar waiting to be served. He had noticed the irritation and uneasiness in the woman’s voice as she spoke of children. Still watching the woman he decided to open his mouth and ask for a glass of water. “Ma’am, if I could please have a glass of water I would highly appreciate it.” His voice was elegant and soft as he spoke, the words running off his tongue smoothly as he presented a smile to her. Looking over to the other two beings who had entered the Tavern his bright blue eyes scanned over them curiously for a few moments before looking back in the bar tenders direction.

    Ruby red hues looked up, focusing on the woman who was raising her voice, scolding him for making a mess. He couldn't help but grin to himself. There was certainly nothing 'motherly' about this woman. She didn't like kids? Gabriel could believe that, since she seemed to show no concern. But that was fine with the dragon. He didn't need anyone hovering over him What he needed was a drink and a wet cloth.... The dragon perked up when the woman returned. He caught the cloth in mid air. alright, so maybe she was a little nicer than he first thought.
    "Thanks," He said while starting to wipe down his lower back. "You mind getting me a drink, sweet heart? Rum and coke." He ordered, then seated himself at the bar.
    The dragon would continue to wipe his back as best as he could, but his arms only allowed him to reach so far. Damn. A shower might be in order, but he really needed that drink.

And then things started to fly around behind her, including the Jack Daniels. Draft hose came up and out, sprayed water into a glass that slid itself in front of the one that asked for the water. Her glass got refilled with Jack and Coke, but it was the sort of mix that made you ask "ok, where's the coke?" While her drink and the dragon's drink mixed themselves, she gave a nod to the only other woman in the room. "You want something while I'm at it?" She asked. Normally, she would have threatened his tongue for calling her sweetheart, but she was on new medications now, and she didn't fly off the handle like that anymore. Soon, her drink rested in front of her, and his went shooting over to him. She picked it up and took a sip, then smiled and set it down. For once, she didn't get any drinks mixed up.
