Kirby was trying to find his place- everywhere he went, he had found one place that served liquor that had become sort of his base of operations, his headquarters. It was typically here that he made his friends, where he exchanged ideas and became more acquainted with the world he had stepped into. Coming back to his home, however, was strange. Everywhere was familiar, but unexplored, so he had no ideas of where to begin. The thing that drew him to The Hog's Head was it's relative distance from the rest of the quaint little village of Hogsmeade. Emmeline was sickly but had come along for the journey. However she had run into a friend from ITaly who was staying in London, and the two decided to tour the village together. Kirby had told her to keep in touch and he continued on his own until he found The Hog's Head.
He had no prejudices as he walked in. What did draw him, though, was the spirited conversation occurring at the bar. They all seemed to be arguing about something- the Ministry, was it? This was the best way to settle into a "new" place, Kirby knew very well, so he headed for the bar, ignoring the patrons at tables who had evidently come here just to get drunk. He ordered himself a Firewhiskey and lit a cigarette, taking a seat at the bar and soaking himself into the conversation. The night had become a promising one.
