The Tavern

Cat shakes her head in shame.
"Sorry about that. She tends to kill people a lot. I'm sure," she pauses to poke Zhia with her elbow, " that she will apologize to you. By the way, @15253 I did find that Doctor Who reference you just made very funny."
Cat sits back down and tries to continue reading her book.

Then her undone homework rushes in, smashes her over the head with a science textbook, stuffs math worksheets in her mouth as a gag, and drags her away, kicking and screaming muffledly. Her ice chocolate falls off the table and spills on the floor but her Kindle is miraculously fine. Everyone stares for a minute as the homework leaves, but then goes right back t what they are doing.

Returns to the Tavern with a wrecked toy shotgun, blots of candle wax all over his face and a burnt tux.

I hope your happy Zhia -__________________________________-

Catch enters the Tavern and orders a tall glass of Coke. On his quest to find an empty seat, he notices an abandoned Kindle on a table. He sits and starts reading.

*Sees a fellow ghosts and walks over to it.*

*Plays dubstep reaLLY LOUDLY and manages to shatter everyone's glasses)

GG

Meandbooks is glad she opted for a plastic mug and not a glass one. She cringes at the loud noise, shooting a nasty look at @15253. She reaches behind her ears to turn her hearing aids off, which blocked out all sound, allowing her to continue to serenely sip her hot chocolate.

Good thing I had a water bottle then.

Walks outside of the soundproof walls to drink her melted chocolate in peace

Catch looks up.

"Oh, hey, r4!" He says. There's cheer in his voice, but disappointment on his face. He holds up the Kindle for r4 to see. "I found this Kindle lying around, but there's no good books on it! Whoever's Kindle this is, they've got bad taste-"

Suddenly, an ear-wrenching, Skrillex-esque song starts playing at an excruciating volume from a nearby table. Shocked, Catch loses his grip on the Kindle, dropping it into a puddle of ice chocolate on the floor. His glass of Coke spontaneously shatters. Catch freezes, true horror spreading on his face.

"THAT WAS A DOLLAR NINETY FIIIIIIIIVE!" Catch cries out in anguish, tears rolling down his cheeks.

Cat suddenly struggles brokenly back through the door covered in paper cuts and shredded homework. She grabs the counter for support, but collapses on the floor anyway. Then she braces herself and crawls her way into a gap between the floor and the armchair, where she huddles up. Catch, the occupant of the armchair, looks totally weirded out.

A few minutes later, Cat's undone homework trudges through the door. It looks around, grunts through its doodled-on paper mouth, and leaves as ominously as it came.

Cat then peeks out from beneath the armchair and notices her Kindle in Catch's hand.

"Thanks for rescuing it," she says gratefully, and takes it back. She suddenly notices it's on and someone's been looking through her books. "Hey, you weren't looking at my books, have you??"

"Oh... um..." Catch falters. He has never been a good liar. "No, of course not! That was... uh..." Catch frantically darts his eyes back and forth, in search of somebody to place his blame on. His eyes meet with the man blasting the terrible dubstep, still laughing about shattering everybody's glasses. Catch points at him. "That guy. That guy was looking through your books!"

*Frantically rushes and turns off @1523's music and smashes the speakers.*

"Now you will have to pay just as much as the barkeeper," I say smiling.

*Goes and sits down by @TheCatchphrase and reads a book.*

Groans in distress as he realizes those were his only speakers then perks up when it dawns on him that he is an internet troll.

Creates infinitely louder speakers and tapdances across the bar and over to r4

*Knocks @1523 out with my book*

Zhia stomps back inside, having heard music through the soundproof walls. She draws her katanas immediately and stabs them through the speakers, and then slices through all the power outlets.

"Better? I think it is. R4?"
