The first thing they saw when they arrived downstairs was the guard standing in front of the entrance. He was absolutely gigantic, like atleast 3 meters tall. Because of the small size of the walkway, he had to stand there hunched to even fit into it, but somehow he was still able to emit a kind of threatening aura. Once inside of the club, Jimmy was surprised at the decor. It was almost all wood and chairs that looked straight out of an old school western. The bar also had this kind of western style with a bartender that had eyebrows so large that they almost obscured his eyes. Above the shelf filled with bottles that were definitely only put there for decor was a sign that read "Drown the pain of bad jokes with your favourite drinks, including our on the house special which is banned in 28 states.". While Jimmy was looking over the bar, Stabby gulped when seeing a new decoration that wasn't there the last time he went here. It was a wall of stuffed human heads that were lined up like hunting trophies.
Jimmy: "Look, it's the reception for the improvised stand up comedy award. It will take place in 25 minutes and they still take new participants. How convenient. Which one of us two wants to try to get it?"
Stabby: "You."
Jimmy: "Ok, sure."
So while Jimmy was registering himself into the competition, Stabby sat himself down to a table and waited until one of the waitresses came to take his order.
Waitress: "Hello, what could I bring you?"
Stabby: "A glass of whiskey, please."
Waitress: "Sure thing, mister."
The waitress was really fast and after only a minute he had his glass of cold whiskey.
Stabby: "I noticed your new decorations."
He subtly nudged towards the stuffed heads on the wall.
Waitress: "Oh those. Yeah we have them for a year now so you probably haven't been here for a long time."
Stabby: "Yeah. I mean it's...very...charming. Whose unfortunate heads are these?"
Waitress: "It's of the people who broke the rules of the improvised stand up comedy award, especially the improvised part. Stealing jokes is an absolute no go like you can see here on the wall."
Stabby: "Yeah, I got that. But when I kill someone I let the body lay on the floor so the family can have a funeral, it kind of gives them a lot more respect than just putting them on your wall as a kind of cheap and crude decoration."
The waitress just started laughing.
Waitress: "Yeah, as if the people who come here have anyone coming to their funeral."
Stabby: "You got a point."
Stabby just sighed an drank his glass in one shot.
