005 - Will you do the fandango

[onlyanapple]

Who: Crowley and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Iskaulit
When: Today!

[The Fleet will be greeted with the blasting noise of that song he got for Christmas, you know the one. If you don't, now you do. You're welcome. The screen flickers on to show the interior of the Iskaulit. Specifically, a brand new bar.

Everything is black and metalic, sleek and modern. Neon lights of blues and greens offer some light. This place screams fancy. It's even got a pretentious name, the word 'Málum' in red above the bar proper. It's an inside joke.

Crowley turns the device to grin at the audience.]

So, Varric may have started up his quaint little shithole but I'm here to offer you an alternative. After all "I might get a disease from one of these chairs" isn't what some people are looking for in a watering hole.

Open til late, free shot with every pitcher, yadda yadda, come and drink your troubles away. Enjoy our jukebox with songs from...whatever the fuck is on the network. Sorry if it's shite. That's just standard jukebox fare, if we're being honest.

Let's drink our bullshit troubles away.

[[OOC: And from this point on, Málum is a location you can use! If your character wants a handwaved job, they're welcome to it. The more people, the less Crowley has to work for himself and he does love less work.

You...actually opened the bar.

[Color him surprised. By now he had half figured it'd all been a ruse to get people to give him alcohol and do odd jobs for him]

Video

[onlyanapple]

Of course I did. I said I would and I did.

You don't have to sound so surprised, Allen.

Video

[save_the_souls]

I know you did!

It's just...well, after awhile I had started to think it'd been a scheme to get people to donate alcohol to you.

Video

[onlyanapple]

Goes to show you, then, doesn't it?

[He sounds SO SMUG. Maybe he did this just for the chance to be a smug asshole. It's as good a reason as any.

Plus he kept the good stuff for himself. ]

[ A bar. Thank the Force. ]

I'm surprised such things are allowed.

[ video ]

[onlyanapple]

[Bringing good things to the people! ]

Well, if we've got a great big spaceship amongst us, we might as well use it for something important.

I doubt Atroma cares either way.

Re: [ video ]

[beardstrokes]

I wonder.

[ Alcohol does make fools of people. And quality entertainment. ]

I'll be sure to visit. I could certainly use the respite.

[ Perhaps even now. ]

[ video ]

[onlyanapple]

Well, I have respite in spades, at least.

[i_got_this]

[You can bet she's showing up as soon as she sees this. She's wearing the fanciest thing she has I her closet,which is this little fur and leather number she got on the planet. Not what she would have watched to show up in, but a magical castle kind of spoiled her.]

[onlyanapple]

[Crowley flashes her a wide grin as she enters. He knew he could rely on her. ]

South. Looking very suave, if I do say so.

[i_got_this]

Yeah yeah, wouldn't want to get kicked out of your bar. [This is what she's wearing.

She waltzes over to take a seat next to him. She's not going to say she missed him, because it's only felt like a few moments for her, but then again being on separate ships is pretty annoying. She says hello with a no-fucks-guven well placed kiss, a little longer and deeper than normally 'friendly', and then turns away casually to look at the menu.]

So, you got anything good here, or is it all flash?

[She can guarantee he's got the Good Stuff, but what fun would it be if she didn't haze him about it?]

[onlyanapple]

[He's certainly not going to turn down that kiss, returning it with an idle smirk. ]

Since when have I ever been all flash?

[He starts to rummage about behind the bar.]

What;s your poison tonight?

audio

[dancingmd]

Crowley, are you still interested in the synthehol?

[Her tone is professional, careful even. She doesn't know what Tek has said to Crowley about their ... argument, if anything.]

I have a decent supply of it now.

audio

[onlyanapple]

[The short answer would be 'not a damn thing', as such, Crowley's tone's the same relaxed-boring-on-mellow it always is. ]

You better believe I'm still interested.

audio

[dancingmd]

All right, I can bring what I have over shortly. Which docking bay is closest to the bar?

audio

[onlyanapple]

Five.

You, Beverly, are a star.

[mikangirl]

Oh, good. This means I don't have to drink where I work.

[But largely because she knows this bar will attract an entirely different clientele then. It's always good to mingle.]

[onlyanapple]

There you go. Everyone wins~

[And that's exactly what he and Varric were going for. Please the masses, benefit from that. It's flawless, as plans go. ]

[mikangirl]

[In a fleet where this kind of accent is a rarity, she does think about her conversation with Cole. Makes her wonder--]

Your name Crowley?

video

[unconfines]

[Anders has, melodramatically and appropriately, slung one arm across his eyes at this revelation.]

Maker, finally. Here I thought I was going to waste away before I finally got the opportunity to be absolutely sloshed every day of the week.

video

[onlyanapple]

[Poor Anders, his suffering has been great. ]

Come on now, Anders. I wouldn't let you waste away. That'd be a tragedy for everyone.

[unconfines]

It would be, wouldn't it? [He sits up, smiling.] Knew I could always count on you, Crowley. You're doing the Maker's work.

[lord_wizard]

[It's possible he's lent a hand here and there to the demon, so the announcement is not a complete surprise to him. Something else, however, does.]

You finally decided on a name...

[It's not entirely a question.]

video

[onlyanapple]

Hm. I think it denotes just the right amount of class, don't you?

[He's so pleased with it. Nerd. ]

video

[lord_wizard]

It certainly has a...flair. But...Crowley, what language is that?

[Because, if there was anything he learned from that week in Paradisa where it removed their ability to understand each other, was that Cymellunar is essentially identical to the Earth language called Latin]
