Today's action begins with cheap booze at the Devil Rats Bar and Grill.
It's just inside the depths of the Barrens, close to the highway. Low life, sleaze ball dive, frequented by organleggers, bikers, and poor ass drunks.. The kind of people that would just as soon cut your throat and sell your liver, if they could stab you from behind, drug you, or have Huge Eddie (the door guy) knock your ass out. You've recently found the place, and have found it has a reputation for cheap booze, strong drinks, NO FUCKING QUESTIONS, andvery little eye contact. Inside it's dark as night and solid smoke. Fights and knifings are not uncommon, you've seen one, but what is common is the surly, the drunk, and the quiet. You see the booze, but see no sign of sims or BTL's. There is no grill, but there's a hot plate with a big pot of greasy, nasty, soy chili. Not too spicy. Not real good. An acquired taste. Rumor has it the chili pot just keeps getting added to. There's a hand scrawled sign above the counter. “You puke it up, you clean it up.� The same guy's been behind the bar the three times you've been here. He looks 65, bitter or angry or both, and is heavy smoker and drinker (just watch him for 5 minutes). Devil Rats is a dank, smokey, nasty, and clearly dangerous place. But it appeals to you the privacy it silently demands. Huge Eddie walks back from the pisser, looking totally at home as an alcoholic troll walking back to his post at the stool just inside the front door. You have a round of shot glasses in front of you full of something clear that you suspect a jet could run on. There's no walking in this place without buying something, and quickly. Who knows what will happen if you wait longer than the dirty look lasts. It's 2:12pm. There is a scattered crowd of professional drinkers. What are you going to do now? |
