How long that huge blast of Glamour would keep the Pub
enchanted, or if it would have faded away by whenever 'now'
is... *shrug*.]

"No thanks," the boy raises a hand protestingly, "I just ate."

"... Oh, wait!" He smacks himself on the forehead. "Duh!"

He reaches out to shake Jonathon's hand. "So pleased to meetcha.
Call me Ishmael. Or Toby, if you like; some folks call me that,
though I have no idea why."

Toby looks appalled. "Don't tell the owner that. He worked
hard to make the place a going concern, all by himself, and
he's very proud of his stock. 'Something for everyone', that's
his motto."

"Anyway, what about your friends here?" He indicates the dogs.

"Very pleased to meet you Ga-ya-da-hi U-nu-le."

Despite the handicap of his accent, Jonathon does a pretty good
job of pronouncing your name correctly.

"Although I would prefer to use your alternative if I may.

I'm Jonathon Young. And my companions are Broderick and
Elizabeth, Brody and Liz to their friends.

Liz, Brody, say hello to a friend."

The two dogs move forward and sniff gently.

Jonathon.

closer. "Neither do I."

He was probably already there in the corner, brooding over a pint; after
all, the door wasn't locked when Illyana came in. Pale skin and paler
hair, sunglasses - blue-gold lennon-style - unnecessary in the dim
lighting of the pub, but too much a part of his identity to remove. Very
well tailored charcoal grey suit, white shirt, no tie, black leather
driving gloves. Briefcase by Giger on the floor beside his chair.

Shane watches the people entering the pub with mild interest.

Not-so-rogue mage

"I _hate_ it when that happens." She smiles. "Anyways, i'm an amiable

with, other than Thumper."

A serious expression settles on her features.

"Glad to hear it and since the bottle is a gift from me to Padraig, _I
expect _you to take good care of it, because it wasn't exactly easy to
get a hold of."

She holds her hand up, palm in front of her face and says "Da-ni-ta
ga."

She sits down cross legged on the floor and holds out her hands.

"O-si-yo, Gi-li-ni-ta, how're things in the hectic canine world these
days?."

Illyana sips her vodka, ironically missing the friendly(?) face. Rustain
*grolfs* at the mage.

Rustarin eyes him cautiously, then looks to Illyana, who growls at her. The
dragon nods, conveying a feeling that he should be honoured to be allowed to
touch her.

Rustarin shakes her head and growls.

She takes a bite of the chocolate and consents to being petted.

Jane nods at the dragon. "You certainly are a fine young
dragon."

Jane continues straightening up. "The last I knew it was worked
on by a Ragabash Garou and a Technocrat." She pauses. "Get
baby out of it?" she asks blandly.

"Interesting creature."

- Friendly enough whilst here. Outside? I can't answer that.
