It was a slow night in McKenna's and Mike had let the bartender and most of the waitstaff go early. There was no point in keeping them standing around when there wasn't any demand for them and they wouldn't make any tip money. He knew the business as well as anyone and he hadn't scheduled himself to work the Dive that night, so he put himself behind the bar instead.
Not that there was much to do there either, there were only three customers in the bar area and he had one waitress left to cover the tables. The prep work was all done and at this point unless there was a sudden flood of people all they'd need to do is put things away for the night. He looked up from his newspaper as the bell over the door rang, jostled by said door's movement as someone stepped in from the street.

“Nah,” he shook his head, “I don’t have anything like that, and what I do have, I don’t think will help in this situation.” He looked at the bartender. “By the way, it’s hounds. Two of ‘em.”

He glanced between the two men. "I've got to check on my other customers and the staff. Figure something out or I'll figure it out for you."

"Well, this does leave us in a fine predicament," Gerald said, coming to stand beside the young man. "What did you do to draw their attention?" he asked, glancing at Daniel a little more closely than on New Year's eve. "Whatever it is, it's certainly raised their ire, as well as their hackles."
