It was late in the evening, not that anyone here would notice, but it was about that time when bars and clubs, like the one Shira found herself at, started to actually fill up with people of various assortments. The one she currently found herself in was rather small, but that did not dissuade others from attending said establishment. It was dimly lit with lights, some of different color than the traditional illumative white lights. There was some form of loud music, a band was playing or something, they weren't very good for a group that considered themselves a well known traveling group of minstrals. But that wasn't the reason most of the villagers bothered to come to it. Nope, it was for the decent assortment of liquor that stocked the shelves, as well as some decent company if you were looking for it.
It was for this very thing that Shira now found herself in the bar. It had been a rough couple days, dealing with Ko and Shizo, hearing several different sermons of the great Lord Dekishi's accomplishments. She just wanted it to stop. Another problem was that her seal was cracked. Her demon was now occasionally interrupting her thoughts or making her presense known all just to bother Shira. So what better way to fix it than to just go out and have a good time with some good old fashion alcohol. Not to mention the people she would meet was always interesting.
Sitting on her bar stool, Shira glared at the bartender as she ordered for him to bring her a mixture of sake and Shōchū. It's alcohol content wouldn't be as strong as some of the stuff she has at home, but the flavor was usually nice and she could at least get tipsy within one to two drinks. She was almost thankful that she was such a light drinker. She stared into the crowd with a bored expression a moment later, watching others converse about their day or try to pick up a random stranger. She sighed. A clink from beside her suggested that her drink was ready, and she downed it in a matter of minutes. She ordered another and told him to keep it coming. As she sat there contemplating, she could feel herself relaxing a bit. "I need to get out more." She breathed out with a slight smile as her second drink was sat down. She'd start having some fun once the alcohol set in, or when someone of interest showed up.
