Welcome to Gaia! ::

Welcome to O'Reely's Restaurant and Bar, owned and operated by Adam O'Reely and his lovely lamp assistant, Ava. At O'Reely's patrons are encouraged to mingle with others and be comfortable. Oh, there's also food. And alcohol. Lots of alcohol. Have a beer or two.

The sole waitress of the moment will soon be lovely lovely Ava, who should also do some singing and small-time cooking. Most of the cooking and big business is done by Adam. We have a good menu, and the booze is good too. Did I mention we have booze?

So sit back and enjoy yourself at O'Reely's. It's O'Reely awesome! (insert crappy slogan here)

MORE TO COME

She reached the trees and peered out into the rain, only to discover that O'Reely's was only a few shops down from the library.
So Jasper, clinging to Kiran, ricocheted from the trees into the doorway of the bar, realizing that the doors swung outward only after impact. Thank goodness she had figured as much, and turned her back to the doors. She didn't want to have hit them with her elbow sticking out as it was.
Hunching her shoulders, she opened the door and went inside. "You okay there, Kiran?"
He had still gotten damp despite the precaution, and flapped his wings roughly like a dog shaking water off. Looking highly ruffled, he drew his wings around his body again.

Jasper took her attention from her lamp-to-be to the surrounding environment. It was a nice looking place, clean and tidy. Thankfully, Jasper had enough money to buy something nice, she noticed, looking at the menu.

Jasper heard the other person speaking and glanced over. They appeared to have a lightbulb too, and a very odd one at that. It was hanging upside down from the ceiling, and the man was attempting to coax it down. She giggled and set Kiran on the table, where he flapped his wings again. She'd noticed he did that a lot. Maybe he'd be able to fly soon.

"Let's go meet someone new," she murmured to her companion, scooping him up and wandering over to the man.

"Hey. Having bulb problems?"

Jasper smiled. "I'm Jasper, and this is Kiran. He slept all day too." She held up Kiran, who actually showed the first signs of wanting to fly, flapping his wings wildly and making funny little hops in her palm. She bit her lip and grabbed his body with her other hand, making his wings wave all the more agitatedly. "And you are?"

Jasper froze, scared that she would somehow dislodge Nora from her perch. Kiran seemed absolutely outraged at this intrusion on his friend. Wiggling out of her fingers and flapping his wings wildly, he hopped up her arm, avoiding her careful swipe to recapture him, and stopped on her shoulder.

"Kiran, stop it!" He ignored her and continued waving his wings; the breeze made her hair get up in her face. Looking at Jack, she smiled apologetically.

"I'm sorry, he's usually pretty shy."

Jasper reached up and set Kiran on the table before sitting down. "Mind if I eat with you?"

Kiran hopped to the center, the breeze from his wings making the flame of the candle dance wildly. He halted an inch or so away from Nora, standing upright for the first time Jasper had seen. His wings had grown a bit, she noticed.

"Hot chocolate and grilled fish sounds wonderful. Not together," she added, glancing up from the menu, "But something to ward off the cold and wet, y'know?" Setting the menu aside, she glanced at Nora. "Your little lamp-to-be seems to like high places."
