He went there for research. The guy riding with him in the car was also probably there for research.
I swear that said the guy riding him in the car.

“Not dead yet!”
Oh, and sign that my children are adapting to their new surroundings?
We saw a baby furry at Barnes and Noble the other day. (Teenager, street clothes w/tail and ears) and Abby did a minor double take, then shrugged and went on looking at the manga shelves.
Trust me when I say this is not something we would have ever encountered in Jacksonville.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A bar is where you order hoity-toity fancy-shmancy $10 cocktails
::weeps:: I tried to order a fancy cocktail this weekend and nobody there knew what a Dark and Stormy was. So I paid high coin for a Ketel gimlet instead. I should know better than to ask Buffistas for drink suggestions. Arcane hipsters.
I haven't bought anything other than a vodka gimlet straight up in years.

A Dark & Stormy is no good unless the bar has real ginger beer.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Ginger beer, yum. I like it so bitey it makes my tongue hurt.

Dude, let us break for lunch.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I went to a fancy bar once and they didn't know what a grasshopper was. So I told them and they made some for us. Nummy!
And it turns out that what I told them to make was a Wisconsin variant, made with ice cream instead of cream. (The other indredient is crème de menthe.) That's the way my parents made them.
In the North Central states, especially Wisconsin, Grasshoppers are blended drinks where ice cream is substituted for cream.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
OTOH, The Manhole? Just a gay bar.
And closed. It's now Hydrate. Also a gay bar.
I may be pre-verted.
May be? Honey, own it. It's one of the reasons I love you.

Sad now.

Huh.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
There's also a good sushi joint just down the street, IIRC.
