The Beakeasy*UNDERGROUND*  The Beakeasy is a 1920s-style bar for the Birds. It offers old favorites, like the Early Bird Special Maitai, and caters well. While the place is known for its spectacular shows in which males strut their stuff on stage for the females, occasionally females join together and do large rehearsed numbers to ease the performance pressure off the males.

<< Enter from The Park >>
Arriving at the front door of the Beakeasy was simple enough, there wasn't anybody else around, except for the couple of pedestrians that were walking by. After landing on the ground, Raive shifted into his more "human" form, and pulled out the key to the door. A small turn sideways released the lock, and Raive pushed the door open a crack, only wide enough for him to enter. He shut the door, locking it once more. Immediately, he hustled to the rear, and opened the breaker box. Flipping three switches, all the lights turned on, and the music began to play. Today's selection of musical entertainment included that of Mozart, Beethoven, and other piano classics, as well as a number of jazz and brass keys for an added flair. The tables that filled the dining area had already been set from the night before, so he didn't have to take the extra half hour to prepare everything, the only thing missing was the glassware, since they would get dusty overnight.
"Alright, time to open, and get today going. I can't wait to see what the performers have planned. I always love their shows," Raive said to himself as he moved back towards the front doors. Turning the lock counterclockwise, the deadbolt snapped down into its cavity within the doorframe without so much as a squeak or thunk. "Now the sign." Raive walked over to a window, and tugged the pull chain on a neon sign that read "Open." With his second morning routine finished, Raive took his usual place at the bar, and gazed over to the patrons beginning to enter his humble business. Remembering that he had to put out the glasses, he pulled out a cart, and began to stack the cups carefully beside pitchers of ice water.
Wheeling the now full cart of cups and water around to the various tables, Raive began to set out the glassware after he filled them with the refreshments. "Hey, Joe, how's the wife been treating ya?" He also greeted the patrons as they sat down at their usual tables. "Lovely to see you again, Denise, pleasant morning up above." Raive loved his customers like they were family, and now that he was finished setting the water out, he returned to the bar, and began to converse with the more alcohol drinkers. Though they usually started to drink around the evening hours, they came in during the morning lightly buzzed or hungover, looking for a place to take refuge from their nagging wives and/or girlfriends. The lights at the bar were dimmed, as to make the atmosphere more settling for the others.
