Can Any Of Us Even Get Drunk

[mikangirl]

Who: Space Bar staff and special guests
Broadcast: N/A
Action: Space Bar!
When: One fine night after closing

[The Space Bar staff made good use of the ever-replenishing alcohol supply at their last stop, and Nami and Remy got around to discussing the idea of testing various experimental mixes to come up with new additions for the menu.  I mean, add to that Nami hasn't made a decision which one of the applicants should take the main bar job, so clearly the best idea is to shove them all into one place and ply them with alcohol while they talk to each other and work it out after that.

No, it's a good idea.  Shut up.

...okay.  It may just be a good excuse for a party.  Sue her.]



((ooc: this is a mingle!  It's open to job applicants and regulars who hold their liquor and their plus ones.  If you think that might mean you, you're more than welcome here!))

[Inviting the competition (strictly speaking) was just good taste, yo. Or Nami's sense of style, anyway. She'll happily toast him back with the world's cheekiest grin, but she knows they see eye to eye about this sort of stuff.]

Glad you could slum it with us.

[onlyanapple]

What can I say? Sometimes I descend from upon high to mingle with the common folk.

[His shit-eating grin means he's absolutely joking here. ]

Not a bad spread. Some of these actually have a kick to them.

[mikangirl]

Remy's got a good hand for this.

[She slides into the chair across from him.] So. Greatest of curiosity. Apparently you sold "bottled water" to someone recently.

[onlyanapple]

He really does.

[That gets a laugh out of him. ]

Oh, so that chucklefuck did come across to this place after screeching at my bar. He asked for a drink, I gave him one and he was rude. Even my patience has it's limits, and he tested them. Next time, he might learn to be a little more polite to the people serving him drinks.

[mikangirl]

I wondered. He was polite enough to me, but he had nothing good to say about you. He's new, right? He'll either learn or go thirsty.

[onlyanapple]

He's very new, seemed to think the best way to get what he wants is to shout about it. So yeah, he;ll learn to play nice, or he shan't get anything. I wonder if he's pissed off Jarvis, yet?

[mikangirl]

I'll have to ask. Though I think Jarvis has more tolerance for this kind of thing.

[onlyanapple]

Stiff upper lip and all that. But even he has to have a breaking point. I bet once he explodes, it's really something to see.

[mikangirl]

I like him in his non-explosive capacity, really. Otherwise I'd be getting ringside seats.

[onlyanapple]

Oh yes, we'd all prefer the non-exploding part. But when it does, inevitably, happen - I want popcorn.

[mikangirl]

Made by Jarvis beforehand?

[Innocently.]

[onlyanapple]

...Sure, why not?

[mikangirl]

There's a certain poetry in that. [Amused.]

Okay, but guy in the kimono-- think he's just bluster?

[onlyanapple]

Oh yeah, I doubt he's going to cause any real trouble. I don't think he's quite human, there's something...weird there. But I don't think he has anything you couldn't handle.

[He's pretty sure Nami can take care of herself. ]

And if he turns out to be, I don't know, some fire-shooting lunatic, I'm just across the hall.

[It's ALMOST like offering help. ]

[mikangirl]

[Huh. Then again, so many "humans" here which aren't.]

I can deal with fire-shooting lunatics. But I'll be sure to keep it in mind.

[It's almost like saying thank you.]

[onlyanapple]

[He gives her a lazy thumbs-up. ]

I figured as much. You've dealt with worse.

[And lo, this is how they function. ]
