"Hey! Oi, look at that shit!"
A loud voice slurred through the silent hall.
Leo turned to look and at the table closest to the entrance, a massive, barrel-chested man shoved his chair back with a screech and stood.

He staggered forward, pointing a thick, filthy finger at Leo with a smirk that showed too many missing teeth.
"Oi, you see that?" Jax laughed, voice echoing, "Pretty boy here is acting like he owns the place. And you… The slutty receptionist…" he jabbed his thumb toward Mara,"You damn near sucked his finger off like you was starvin'."
