the whole universe appears as an infinite storm of beauty

[valyrianstorm]

Who: Daenerys Targaryen & Open
Broadcast: Yes.
Action: On the Wonderduck.
When: Evening.

[Sitting in one of the pilot seats, violet eyes bright as she maneuvers the controls with deft, small hands, Daenerys seems to be totally in her element. Flying awakens a whole new side to her - one hungry for adventure and freedom. How could she possibly be freer than when she is amongst the stars?]

I have been wondering...

Where does one go for strong drinks and pleasurable company? You cannot convince me all aboard the Fleet abstain from alcohol and sex.

[She leans back, then, tilting her head impishly.]

If that is a term we must fulfill, I can think of others I would rather take my place.

I doubt we would all still be sane if the Atroma took that away from us. We're all human after all, well, some of us are anyway.

[He might not be as human as he looks.]

As for drinks I tend to frequent the Iskaulit's bar area and see what I can find from our visits planet side. As for intimate relations....those seems to be in rather short supply at the moment.

[As in: he doesn't have a partner to share that with right now.]

[valyrianstorm]

Sanity is another issue entirely. We could all be mad. [A rather sensitive point for her considering her family.] I am human and the body's desires cannot be completely hushed when ships are quiet and stars are bright.

[Daenerys is not a heavy drinker, but intoxication does appeal. However that can come in many forms.]

They needn't be in short supply.

[maledictus_semper]

That is very true. Yet, I believe we still have our heads if we can hold a decent conversation without bursting into maniacal laughter.

[Because that would make you insane, yes?]

Oh? Are you propositioning me, my lady?

[She seemed royal just by the way she held herself and how she spoke. Ardyn was a good judge of character, even when he wasn't poking into people's minds reading who they were.]

Well, there are a couple bars on the Iskaulit, and like - a whole slew of fine drinking establishments and dive bars and let's not forget the massive wholesale liquor stores on the planet so .... that's got you covered there.

As for sex .... [Coy grin,] All you really need to do is ask. [Ask her? Ask someone else? Really it's up to Daenerys for that interpretation. Peebee is just throwing it out there.]

video

[valyrianstorm]

I admit I do not have a strong taste for alcohol. I enjoy a good wine now and then, but to become completely, helplessly drunk seems reckless. [And ultimately useless. The problems - the frustrations - exist nonetheless.]

Are you offering? [She isn't shy!]

Re: video

[pb_n_jocular]

I'm sure you can find something adequate; there's no lack of variety. [Peebee's not going to mention that, yeah ... she's gotten to that level of inebriated before. Recently. Whatever it's not a regular thing that happens, no harm no foul?]

[She leans back in her seat and gives a lightly dismissive shrug. She's an insatiable flirt and loves the game, so she's going to try and drag this out as long as she can.] Well, I guess it depends; are you asking?

[Lumière is standing on top of his communications station when she speaks. He turns to her, flashing her a charming smile. ]

From what I understand, ma cherie, there are bars on the Iskaulit for strong drinks. As for sex, I am sure plenty of people in the Fleet would indulge a beauty like you. If not, then they are blind, no?

Action

[valyrianstorm]

[Well hello there, dashing candlestick! Oh the horrible things Martin would do to you in the Westerosi universe.]

I do not like to presume. [She simply might not suit the tastes of those onboard.] My pride will not be crushed if I am denied.

[He'd have the worst time of it, he really would. ]

That is good to hear, but I doubt you will have any problems. Alas, I am not in a position to help you currently, or it would be my delight.

There are at least two bars on the Iskaulit, but you might want to check the planet for pleasure of that sort. Or bars, even.

Some people just don't have sex as a priority. Some take sex seriously, which is just as well as taking it casually. Personally I'm a bit of column a and column b, but I'm a little picky.

[valyrianstorm]

Drunken company is not precisely what I seek. A glass or two of wine never did anyone harm, but I like to keep my wits about me in bed.

[And out as a matter of fact.]

I wouldn't say it is a priority, but to go without for so long...

We are being punished enough.

[torsion]

Fair enough! I typically prefer my company at all times to be sober and lucid.

Well, maybe priority isn't the word I was looking for. Interest? It's nothing I need or even necessarily want and it rarely crosses my mind. Don't think there's a big deal about it either way, though.

Unfortunately I can't give greater advice on the subject. Just be careful if you're going to hit anyone up on the planet and I don't know, take a wing man.

[ Sure thing, mom. ]

[tallasaking]

You know ... I don't know if I'm shocked to hear such things come from you lips -- or hurt that you did not ask me personally.

[Is Tyrion's wry response.]

Video

[valyrianstorm]

I did not know you would be interested? [Is she playing dumb or is she that naive? Flip a coin.]

Re: Video

[tallasaking]

When anything involves wine and possible debauchery, I am absolutely interested.

[Khadgar's face is entirely red.]

Ah, there's a bar on the Iskaulit. And I know some members of the fleet have private collections of alcohol. Hopefully they'll offer if you don't want to visit the bar.

[Not touching the sex part.]

video

[valyrianstorm]

[Now what's that color for? Daenerys gives him a more private smile.]

I am content with a little wine now and then. Do you have a drink you favor?

video

[touchallthebooks]

[Do you want to play 'Find the virgin' Dany?

Surprise, you win.]

Ah, mostly wine. Some mead. Mages and getting drunk, not the best combination.

video.

[collegedropout]

I work at The Space Bar — some of the alcohol there's pretty rough to drink, but there's some that aren't too bad. I could recommend a few, depending on your preferences. As for the... pleasurable company. I'm sure you could find like-minds.

[He mostly came here for the bar mention, but hey, everyone needs love, right?]

video.

[valyrianstorm]

Is there anything resembling a sweet wine? The deeper the red, the more flavorful they seem. [She hasn't had much of a chance to become a wine connoisseur yet, but she is well on her way.]

I have had some luck in that regard. I am relieved to know not everyone has forgotten such joys!

video.

[collegedropout]

It's easy to forget all kinds of joys when you're in a place like this, I guess.

[He considers for a moment, though. A sweet wine...]

I think we have something pretty close it it; it takes a little mixing, but I can manage it.

[mrfancyhat]

These are great questions! Booze seems to be the easiest thing to come by. There's a bar on the Iskaulit, and I keep some wine bottles on board at all times. They're good to have in case of an emergency, you know?

[Chuuya laughs, blowing smoke from his cigarette.]

Sex, even cigarettes are difficult to come by. We only stop at waystations between destinations, so I have to get as many packages of cigarettes as I can before landing. Meanwhile, where I lived, there were convenience stores with all sorts of stuff, including cigarettes, at every corner, and red-light districts.

video

[valyrianstorm]

Are any of the wines in either stock sweet? I crave one from my world called Arbor Red. [Rich, sweet and a beautiful hue.] I cannot think of an emergency that necessitates drink - unless we are exceptionally thirsty?

[Alcohol should not replace water. Even the people of her world know that.]

Cigarettes? I have not heard of convenience stores or red-light districts either. Is the latter like a brothel?

[universal_charm]

If you're looking for something on the ships, the Iskaulit is your bet there. Crowley owns the bar there, and he actually stocks the good stuff. As for the sex - you're going to have to charm that on your own.

[valyrianstorm]

What is "the good stuff" in your opinion? [She seeks sweet wine - a copy of Arbor Red, perhaps.] I have enough charm for the task.
