The tavern door made a depressing creak as it came open. The smoky bounty hunter strolled in, seeing if he could find any jobs. He ignored the strange woman bawling her eyes out and sat down at the end of the bar. He ordered a drink, and lit up a cigarette. He began his usual routine of listening in on conversations and watching other patrons.

Fantastic. The two patrons with the least emotional sensitivity chose to walk in right at that moment.
Emma wanted to punch somebody.

''Look I am not gonna sound like a heartless b*****d like i have before...I just want to make sure people live okay?'' I said as i opened my helm ''But that feeling..I know how that feels and dont say i dont know. Im an immortal man and i have longed for death many times but over time I learn to just live and fight it out...I really dont want to sound like a bad guy but how?...how are you human you were the person i thought would live almost as long as me.''

David snorted at Big Guy's comment, yet he didn't turn and he didn't say anything else.
His eyes were focused mostly on his beer, but his ears were focused on everything else.

"Not you, not now."
Her voice was muffled but the tone was unmistakable.
It was the voice of somebody of a person very close to harming something. Herself, somebody else, an inanimate object, anything.

Skutz walked into the tavern for the first time in quite a while. She was feeling mellow, and having gotten used to the female form, kept going on like nothing had changed. "Ummm, just a apple-pomegranate tea please," she ordered when she approached the bar. She took a look around and noted the changes, surprising in the changes of a few people as well. "I've gotta keep up-to-date here before I get thrown out of the loop..." she thought as she sipped her tea.

At that moment Zach entered the tavern, deciding to take a break from her research, and stepped up to the bar to order something. She noticed Emma and her new appearance and her eyebrows shot up.
"Emma," Zach questioned the woman. "That you?"

The tone in her voice was something David could recognize. Since he was turned away from Visher and Emma, they would not have noticed his hand reaching into his duster to slowly pull out a combat knife, just in case something happened.

Question walked back into the bar wearing a ghostbusters uniform. "MAN, that was a feisty ghost. He wiped a bleeding wound on his forehead (that started to bleed again despite his wiping) and sat down at the counter next to Emma. "Don' worry about my head, tis just a flesh wound."

She looked up, staring at Zach with red, puffy eyes. "Yes."
One hand was resting on the pommel of her blade.
Hysteria crept into her tone.

Skutz just shook her head at what she overheard. "Hey Question, how's it going?" she murmured as she sat closer to him. "You look rather.....special in that getup..." She sipped her tea as she kept looking around.

"It's just a costume," he said to Skutz. He then turned to Emma. "Still upset about being a human, eh? Well I got the thing that'll cheer you up." Question then proceeded to sing the lumberjack song. ALL of the lumberjack song. Panting for breath and waiting for applause, he said, "I can do the Knights of the Round Table song too, if you'd like."

David put his knife away and when back to making love to his drink. Hopefully all these people would cheer up the sniffling woman.
He continued to keep himself at a low profile and would occasionally look around, but he would never make eye contact with anybody.
