Who: Susan Bones and Open
When:
Monday, 9:30ish at Night
Where: Bottle of Bones Pub
What: Who needs a drink?
Warnings/Rating: We can just say there might be language at some point.

It was another reason that Susan was so glad that her pub wasn't set up near Diagon Alley. There was no paint to clean up, nor was there any paperwork to fill out. Oh no, all she had to do that day was flick on the lights and set the glasses right. Before she unlocked the doors to open for the day, she had spent an hour or so with her pointe shoes on and the music playing loudly. At around noon, she flicked the neon sign "Open" sign on and flicked the locks open.

Her day was normal. A few normal customers throughout the day. Some people from out of town that kept commenting on the weather and other silly things. When 5:15 hit, those who worked nearby came in for their normal drink. It was also when some of her employees wondered in for their shifts. Pouring drinks, making jokes, listening to the woes of others. It was her job, and she enjoyed every second of it.

Around nine, the employees left after helping clean up after the rush. The last of the regulars filed out with a hefty tip, a wave goodbye and mentions of seeing her tomorrow. Only a few customers remained. Some author that was going through a terrible writers block. She took another whiskey and a clean ashtray over to him. One couple was accompanying another on a first date and Susan smiled at the thought. Then her normal four older gentleman sat there playing cards. She rarely ever gave away free drinks, but for them she took over a round of lager.

She went back to cleaning some glasses and going to the back to start refilling what was sold for the day. The bell over the door made a noise and she dried her hands on the black skirt she was wearing. "What can I help you with?" Susan asked before she even looked up and recognized the face.

Cleaning the paint had been such a hassle. Filling out the paperwork had been worse. While Lily had agreed with most of what the vandal had painted she wished that he hasn't painted her window. Diagon was getting back to normal. That didn't mean that Diagon felt like a place to relax this evening. That's why she decided to head out to Susan's place.

"A pint of cider please" Lily said as she took a seat at the bar. She hadn't seen Susan for a while and Lily couldn't help grin at her former housemate. Instantly she knew she had made the right decision. "How are you?"

Susan smiled widely as she saw her newest customer was Lily. It was always nice when a friend came in. A good friend, and not a random customer. Turning around, she picked up a glass and filled it with a glass bottle that had been placed on a shelf behind the bar.

"Here you go." Susan placed the glass down in front of Lily with a napkin underneath. "I'm doing alright. How are you? Hopefully cleaning up the graffiti wasn't too terrible?" Again, it was something to be glad about that Susan wasn't even close to Diagon Alley. Yeah, every so often some kid would come through with a can of spray paint, but it was an easy clean. "It didn't disturb sales today, did it?"
