It had been a while.

And in the meantime, she'd managed to cross two things off her list of things to do before she died--okay, a little belatedly, but better late than never, right? And really, the Goblin King...At any rate, it is a newly-graduated Hedwig who returns to the bar today, dressed up (for her, anyway) in a slightly-too-short dress

It's an exceedingly unhelpful sign.

It's also being tapped at its top by a pale finger, belonging to a similarly pale boy in (pseudo-)Victorian garb.

"Clients for what?" he asks, looking skeptical (and a little wary that some of that glitter might float off of her and attack him).

"...well, I can do a lot of things," she says with a cheery smile. "And some people here need a lot of things, in my experience. Are you looking for something in particular?"

[lillord1eye]

"No."

The young noble cannot help but look suspicious - people who beat around the bush about their trade, in his experience, tend to be the sort whose trade is not quite legal - as he draws back his hand and brushes it idly on one sleeve.

"I was simply curious."

"Your loss, honey," she says, undeterred, and sips her beer. "This place seems to draw in a lot of lost souls, and those are my people--they all need something. To help them in here, to help them back home... doesn't really matter which."

There's a woman looking at the sign curiously. She's also got a too-short-dress on, and a little too much sequin in the form of some ruby slippers.

"What sort of clients?"

[singintheoven]

"Nice shoes, honey," Hedwig grins. "And it depends on what sort of work you're looking for. I think I may be this bar's first licensed beautician, though. But that's not all I do."

[spandexed_edie]

She smiles back, "They're the originals, if you were wondering."

Proud of her shoes, yes she is.

"Beautician, huh? What other work do you do?"

[singintheoven]

"Anything that's needed, that people are willing to pay for--I do take charity cases, but a girl's got to pay the bills. Psychic advisory work, music lessons, that little interpersonal touch that people may be missing."
