A bit of background on the pub and Syr.

"So what's this "glutton" business?" Bell demanded of Syr as he looked at the menu. "I don't even eat that much! Can't really afford to!"

"Actually, all I did was jokingly say, "I hope he's a big eater," when I mentioned I might have gotten us a new customer," Syr chuckled sheepishly. "Apparently, that kinda spiraled..."

"No kidding..." Bell grumbled. "...also, don't you have to work?" he asked, noting that she was sitting right next to him.

"The waitressing part isn't too busy," she smirked as she scooted close to him so her thigh was against his leg. "What would you like to eat?"

"I guess I'll have pasta," Bell said. "And thanks for the free breakfast this morning," he replied.

"It's no issue, I consider it a form of advertising. I do want this pub to do well," Syr said as the heavyset owner milled about. "Mia Grand, the owner of this place, used to be an adventurer herself. She employs only women, but she was willing to hire even ones with... Histories. Though I'm just here because of superb working conditions," she said. "You get all kinds of people coming in here... Adventurers, regular people, even a few well off people and the like. I'm learning all sorts of different things from them. I should say that getting to know new people from many walks of life is a hobby of mine," she told Bell with a bright smile.

"I see," Bell replied, getting his food and eating it, before the doors opened, and someone else stepped in.
