A host bar owned and operated by Miss Freya Bello, also known simply as "Ma'am".
Host bars are run by demons. They generally cater to demons and humans alike, but depending upon the owner, can be more inclusive and allow a wider array of supernatural creatures, or more exclusive and cater only to demons. (note: there are host bars staffed by demons that only serve humans, but the demons involved generally aren’t there voluntarily and may be victims of a form of slavery)
These bars serve a wide array of functions, being a good place to drink and socialize, a safe space for demons to gather, and a platform for live entertainment.
The staff at these bars can vary greatly depending upon area, but generally follow these rules:
• The most common types of demons that work the floors at these bars are the ones that might be described as delicate, domesticated, or lovely: lambs, rabbits, deer, mice, swans, peacocks.
• In some events, however, more powerful or exotic demons are employed to appeal to a larger crowd. Some examples include snakes, ravens, and foxes.
• The hosts usually wear some form of indication of what type they are. This is a typing that is frowned upon in just about any other context in the demonic community.
• A host bar is not a brothel, however, employees may individually decide to prostitute themselves. These bars place emphasis on the safety of their staff and, without necessarily supporting or condemning this practice, tend to be very diligent when it comes to accounting for all of their workers. Because of this, a host bar is considered the safest place for demonic sex workers to operate from.
Gargoyles are stronger demons employed for the purpose of watching over the bar. Their job is primarily to protect the staff from rowdy customers, but they’re also expected to fight back in the event of a raid (hunters have been known to storm these bars and take prisoners under petty charges). Wolves and coyotes are the most common gargoyles, with the occasional bear or snake. They tend to sit quietly and observe somewhere isolated throughout their shift rather than getting involved with the bar or its patrons. -
She stands behind the bar, meticulously polishing glasses with a white rag. A girl with pastel pink hair stands on the stage, singing her heart out, while another with platinum blond hair worn in an intricate braid dances along.

He lays on the counter next to the woman, wearing a pair of lacy cat ears and a corset. He is very drunk, and very asleep.
-
He sits at the bar, stirring a mixed drink boredly. The performer is lovely, and he's not just saying that because she's his good friend's sister.
He's wearing a tight white dress and a forest green, fluffy fur coat. He also has a pair of ears on, but they resemble a fox's. -
She finishes her song and jumps off the stage gracefully, heading toward the bar with a wide smile on her face.
-
She loses interest in dancing quickly when her sister stops singing. The next performer comes on stage and a slow musical number starts over the speakers.
Ignoring that, she follows Caaguru through the crowd. -
"Hey!" She calls once to the demon sleeping on the counter.
-
He continues to snooze.

She manages to push her way to the bar, where she sits down on the stool at the counter where Sehei lays. She props her elbows up on the table by his side and rests her head in her hands.
"Heeeeyy." she tries again, leaning in close. -
Though his eyes don't open, he turns on his side to face her, a bit of his long hair falling in his face as he does.
"Hm?" he grumbles.
