This Ki-Rin walks into a bar on Christmas eve. A Lammasu is behind the deck pouring drinks.
"Hey buddy, whatcha know?" The Ki-Rin asks the Lammasu.
The Lammasu looks up surprised and says, "Hey man, long-time no-see. Where you been keeping yourself?"
"Ah man, I've got a sweet little Slyph now, and we've had three baby-Sprites already. I peeled her away from some idiot Satyr who couldn't keep his pan-flute away from the Shedus."
"I hear ya. I wish I could anchor-in a sweet little gynosphinx of my own but all I keep running into are Shriekers and Sea-hags."
Right then a Hobgoblin and his Hippopotamus ambled by. The Ki-Rin motioned with his horn-tip in their direction as they passed. "Man, that's a coupla real Gargoyles, ain't they?"
The Lammasu shrugged. "Yeah, we keep getting more and more like that around here since the Chimera began his latest round of experiments."
"Say," the Ki-Rin snorted enthusiastically. "Maybe you just need to get out more and run with a better crowd. I got this buddy, he's part Salamander and part hexa-Naga, he'll fix ya up with a butter-Nymph worth your while."
"Really?"
"Sure. Right now he's dating what's a Gorgon to me, but that bovine seems to know every hot Lamia in town. That way, if you play your cards right, you won't get stuck with all the Medusas and she-Ogres."
"I appreciate that man," the Lammasu said wiping a beer-mug clean. "Thanks for looking out for me."
"Don't mention it. Say, you haven't seen the Owl-Bear around here anywhere have ya?"
The Lammasu pointed with his tail. "He's over there in the corner with the Rakshasa."
"Oh yeah, well, I got some catching up to do with those two anyhow. Why don't you send over a coupla Purple Worms and a Quasit when you got the chance. We could be awhile."
"Will do fella, but I gotta warn ya."
"Okay, what's that?"
"They play the Ropers. And pretty hard," the Lammasu continued with his eyebrow arching.
"That's fine by me Lammy. I got a Xorn or two what's good for it."
"You old Cockatrice you."
"Sometimes it pays to come Nightmared," the Ki-Rin quipped.
"Careful though anyway."
"Why's that?"
"They run with a tough crowd of Mermen."
The Ki-Rin shuddered unconvincingly. "Ah yes, Mermen and Fountain-Brownies. The Hell-Hounds of the dish-watery underworld."
They both laughed heartily.
And then the Umber-Hulk and the Manticore walked in...
