Pip frowned as Alice got so snappy, she didnt have to be bitchy to him. Didnt they have something? Especially after that night? Pip picked up the letter and read it. His green eye instantly showing shock and then anger. His lips went from a gaping hole to catch flies with, to a scowl.
"Non. Non... Merde! C'est des conneries! Cette petite ordure!" Pip went to full on French for this. He slammed the letter down on the counter and glared at Alice.. only to have is gaze falter. It wasnt her fualt.. it was ******** Keiths.
"And i suppose you will fire me to for whats mentioned in t'is about us?" Pip said upset about the whole thing. His friend, only one he had since his boys had died, was out of the job! And they were being sued over.. bullshit reasons, or at least what Pip saw as such. Keith could rip into everyone, make them feel like crap but the minute anyone tried it back? This is what happens?!
"And what about all t'e times 'e made us feel like s**t?! Emotional damage.. pft." Pip scoffed and stormed away from the bar area. He pushed open the males bathroom door and let it slam shut. He wanted to tear his braid out he was so upset.

Bela was much too busy to notice the oncoming tornado that was Alice, once Rachel sauntered up to her with b***h in hand. Damn it, why couldn't she keep it!? Before Bela could shove the pup back into the woman's arms with a huff, she was off to stopping Romane. Wow, lovely. She lifted the dog up to eye level, her look just showing many levels of disgust for the adorable little critter. In comedy movies, this is the part where the puppy pees all over the owner. Ah, it was male. b***h was male! Oh, yes, now's the time you put the pup down, Bela. And she did just that, letting it scamper off in some random direction. What a stupid pup...
When she looked up again, Walter was gone, Alice was upset... aaaand so was Pip, by what she saw. They all had revolved around some papers which Pip had left over there, on the bar. She would move to read them, but she was really not sure if she should. "Cyclops," Bela said gently, not wanting to get blown up at. She was about to break some bad news, but she needed to know what was up. "I'm guessing those documents over there is what has everybody's thong in a twist?" She asked the woman's back, having turned her head a little to the side and made her voice as to coax the information out of the woman. She had all day to see Keith, right up until visiting hours were over. Before she knew it, Bela's forearms were on the bar, supporting her weight as she leaned over the bar to listen to Alice. Sure, she bitched off Alice on occasion, but when Alice bitched her off... well, that just wasn't something as common.

"Ah...ah?" Started the man in mid-voice as he was about to order himself a beer. Had he came to the bar at a wrong time of the day? He just wanted a small somethign to drink, to quench his thirst from that damn heatwave... no to stumble in the middle of a bar fight... "Did... did I just hear the bartender leaving?" He asked aloud. He was hearing other people around him, at least three, maybe four, so he knew he wasn't alone in the bar, but maybe it was their fault that the bartender was angry. He couldn't tell! he was blind for the love of God Almighty! Not that he was as pathetic as some when it came to blindness, but there were still things he couldn't know, like if there was a bartender or not currently.

 __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ - Alice 'Madame Mia' Ladd - __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ He did not just... "Pip get back-Damn it" Alice's voice faded as the Frenchman left the room. Luckily, she had just found one of the bottles of wine she kept around and was serving herself a glass. Granted she didn't get the chance to taste it before Bela reminded her she was here. Her gaze narrowed ever so much at the 'Cyclops' comment, before being reminded of the documents. "You... have no idea" sighed the woman.
Someone else was inside? Alice raised an eyebrow at the newcomer and nodded slightly. "If you wait a bit we'll have a new one coming in" said the woman before taking a sip of her drink.
Didn't she have something to explain to Bela? "It turns out... the thorn in my side, that seems to enjoy tormenting you... has decided to sue me. Isn't that nice?" explained Alice with a sarcastic smile. "Just read the damn thing. It's too much bullshit to read again." And cue snap and glare. "All I know is I'm ripping that little s**t a new one..." Of course Alice was unaware of Keith's current state...

"Guten abend Frauliens." Hans said cheerfully not knowing the train wreck he was walking in on, as he came into the grindhouse. His smile faded when he saw Alice behind the bar, Bela looking none to happy, Pip and Walter missing. Matthew.. MIA as well. The two local cops and a child? Oh and there was.. who was this fellow? Sitting at the bar. Hans joined the man at the bar, it seemed the safest of areas right now. Glasses and a cane, intersting. "Ach.. Herr.. i do nicht vant to be rude. Aber, you are Blind ja? Ich bin Hansel. Vhy dont i buy you ein beir?" Hans asked gently taking a seat besides him.
_____________
It would be a bit before Pip came out of the bathroom... And of course he was smoking like a fiend. When he did come out he approached the group of women near the bar and watched as Hans tried to help an apparrant blind guy. For now he positioned himself at the end of the bar to keep an eye on things. Or rather, to grab himself a beer and drink it down.

"To get you this riled up, I surely don't!" Blondie said, shaking her head. It was meant to be teasing, but the other woman's energy was just so... different... than usual. Bela had to walk on eggshells as it is! But, alas, Alice's attention went to somebody behind Bela. This prompted her to ignore whoever it was.
Once Alice got back to her, she started to speak about Keith. Well, who else was all that, if not Keith? "What?!" Bela asked scandalized, shocked at the revelation. The little s**t was suing them? This could end up involving her, too! "Oh, I will!" She nodded, standing up straight and going over to the abandoned documents. Reading them over as she walked back to where she had been. Oh no he did not just... Bells thought as she read, shocked at all the accusations. Hadn't he done all that to them, if not worse? And how dare they accuse them of something that was pretty much Connor's fault!
And then she read that she wasn't to be involved in any of those charges. Wow, for some reason, it made her heart thump a bit. He had thought of her... D'aawww~ But, then she read the whole firing Walter thing and she understood perfectly what the young LeBlanc meant with his message. Damn him! Bela knew that she wasn't exactly on good terms with Walter, but she certainly had come to appreciate his presence... if just a little.
All through this, Bela's mouth was hanging wide open. And she slowly let the papers down onto the counter again, her eyes looking up at Alice with some kind of undescribable emotion. Cyclops was in deep s**t. "Well, what are you gonna do?" She asked the other woman, still withholding the information from the elder LeBlanc.

"Ach nein ist nicht rude." Hans said with a light blush of embaressement. "I know i must vork on my accent. I have been tryingt to learn die Englisch.. mein Neice speaks ist better zten i do." Hans admitted, he ran a hand through his golden locks, not that the man could see but still. "Und ztat ist nice to heir ztat your fruend sprechen sie Deustche. I could alvays teach you to, if you vill help mich vith die Englisch, ja?" Hans said with a light laugh.
"Fraulien Alice.. i hate to be.. ah rude.. aber.. vhere ist Valter?" Hans asked gently.
"'ans 'e was fired.." Pip commented as he grabbed the two men a beer from behind the counter and set one infront of each. He sat down in Walter's stool behind the counter and inhaled deeply on the cigarette he had.
"Fired? Fur vas?" Hans questioned. "Ach.. Ztis ist Pip.. ein Frenchman, he ist die muscle heir." Hans said gently to Kevin. "Pip ztis ist.. ach.. Herr i do not ztink i got your name?" Hans asked gently.
"For some bullshite t'at Keit' is pinning on 'im." Pip said with a shake of his head.

  __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ - Eleanor 'Ellie' Vatonage, Rachel Fate, & Alice 'Madame Mia' Ladd - __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Alice knew a third glass of wine would be enough to have her calming down some. She had already blown up what she needed, and there wasn't much she could do about the situation right now. Besides, Rachel and those other two were inside, and they had customers. Pip was sitting not too far from her now but he must still be mad. Why wouldn't he be? Walter's his friend.
The woman let Bela react to the papers, falling into everyone's 'WTF?' reaction once they were done. She sighed at the blond's question and shrugged slightly. "The only thing I can do. Settle." Alice wasn't stupid, she knew she couldn't fight this. "One part of it is done" she added, motioning to the paper, in reference to the bottom part. "I just have to get to the other two."Rachel had pretty much been busy with Romane the past minutes. Eleanor had one elbow on the counter, the beer in front of her. She'd slowly taken down at least half of it, and right now was letting the drink sink in. It felt weird... Her eyes scanned the room to find the blond from before less intimidating, that bartender gone, two new men, and the boss and an employee pretty damn mad. Rachel and Romane obviously paid no mind to the new males, but Ellie did. Well she was the one sitting on the other side Kevin, with Rachel and Romane to her side.Alice's attention drifted to that male's questions for a moment. ...Did he mention something about being blind? Well... maybe but she didn't catch it. Though she was certain it had to do some with the glasses and cane. "Because it's complicated. Now really, I don't think you two came to hear the troubles going on" commented Alice, actually not being sarcastic, but mostly to drop the topic. Right on time, their NPC bartender huddled through the House's steps and made his way to the counter greeting the bunch. He didn't take Walter's stool for he was too busy running around setting things up. Alice nodded to the male before walking past Pip and setting a hand on his shoulder, before basically signaling him to leave the area.Back to the officers... Rachel simply shook her head at Romane's words. "We talked about this. Leave the man alone." stated Rachel herself before looking over to the bartender. Perfect, they'd have something else than beer. For now she would be taking a few sips of her beer. "Come on Romane, this is an outing. Take a break. Release your gun. Chill" said the blond with a small smile.

“..Fine.” She consented reluctantly with another drink of soda, which she wasn't enjoying one bit. How could anyone actually like this?! It burned her nose and throat and tasted much too sweet, while she knew it wasn't healthy at all! “..I do not enjoy soda pop.” She said after another taste and set it down, crossing her arms to stop herself from grabbing her gun as she took scan of the area. “What other activities are there to perform on an outing? I do not see a possibility outside of drinking and conversing.” Which would be hard, since she had Alice on one side with Eleanor beside Rachel.. She couldn't think of anything but work with the blond, while the redhead and Ellie simply made her uncomfortable. Practice at Rachel's was much more enjoyable than this..

Although, for some reason, she envied him. How easy it would be to just fall into a coma and drop all your responsibilities! Bela had so much going on lately, besides taking watch duty for the boy, working and sporadic visits to Xeiro; who was such a stress reliever, he had no ******** idea how much! Like, painkillers to the problems of her life. Most of them revolved around Keith lately, as far as she was concerned. After a moment, she realized there wasn't much of anything she could do to help Alice or Keith. Why was she always so helpless in these situations? Everybody always thought she was so aggressive and assertive, but at times like these, she just couldn't do anything.
Bela had also yet to tell Alice about 'Vlad's' letter, too. They both had been much too busy doing their own things apart to talk much of anything; except of her co-workers. Bela had to go clear that up with the elder Tepes twin. Just another thing that her cry fest in Keith's room at the Clinic had put on hold. It wasn't of too much importance, so she'd get around to that at some point. Vlad was bound to be busy hounding his other 'victims' to remember her. Did she still have that letter? Ah, no. It's probably back in her room. Two things she had to tell Alice now, not one. However, Alice was much too busy talking with some... blind guy.
She had noticed the bartender arrive a little earlier, but she did not greet him. Bela didn't feel up to drink anything today, nor will she any day of this week, probably. Hey, wait a second, where was b***h? Meh, it's not like she cared at all, anyway. That damn pup had almost kept her up all night with it's annoying little whines.

"Hansel Veber. Ach sorry fur ztat, Herr Vinnicot." Hans said to the blind man, he then turned to Alice and addressed her. "Ja, sorry Fraulien.. ist just sad to hear." Hans said with a light frown, Walter was a good bartender.
"Walter, and Hans i t'ink you can call 'im just Kevin." Pip said gently. "Eet is complicated..." Pip repeated Alice's earlier statement. He sighed and grabbed himself another beer. He grabbed one for Hans and another for the blind man. He put the blind mans against his hand that was on the counter. "Careful eet is open, no? Why dont we forget eet for now and 'ave a few drinks?" Pip said with a light smile. Ah alcohol made everything better... well not better... okay maybe for that night it made things better. And Pip was all about getting drunk right now.. job or not.
"Ztat i can drink to!" Hans laughed as he started on his beer. "So vhat do you do Kevin?" Hans asked the male.
