In an attempt to better understand one Bart Allen and his concept of "human relationships," Jenny has asked for a book from Bar.
Dating for Dummies appears seconds later along with a note and another book. Bartending? She stares at for seconds, not noticing the red and yellow blur that's run up to the bar beside her until it speaks.
"Hey, Gorgeous, what's up?"
The dating guide gets knocked to the other side of the bar as she tries to hide it from Bart's curious eyes. Instead, she holds up the note. "Bartending. Ever try it?"
"No," he answers. Next thing Jenny notices, he's behind the bar. "But there's a first time for everything."
She follows Bart behind the bar quickly, if just to hide the dating book again. Thankfully, Bar is on her side and new napkins appear with instructions to Bart as what to do. Soon enough, everything is set up for Happy Hour:
Specials:
Yellow Bird
Red Alert
Yellow Strawberry
Red Cloud
Theme? What theme?
Have at!
[ooc: two pups, two muns. open till about 10:30 pm est, then slowtime plz!]

"Can I get a mineral water?"

"Charlie!" There is a big grin on her face as she tugs Bart closer. "Charlie, I'd like you to meet Jay! He's my... um. He's Jay!"
no subject
"Hey."

She nods, grinning as she pours Charlie a glass of water. "Yeah, and it's all kind of brilliant. Jay and I met a goddess and she took us on a flight up to the mountains! I'm so happy I decided to stick around."

I.E., he has glimpsed Dating for Dummies, and cranes his neck for a better look. "What's that?"
no subject
He is not supposed to see the book. Or the way Jenny flushes with embarrassment as she tries to kick it underneath the ice bucket.
"Just a book."
no subject
YOU CANNOT HIDE IT FROM HIM, JENNY.
"What kind of book?" Digging innocently under the ice bucket for said book.
no subject
Just as innocently, "Just a book Bar gave me along with the tending guide book."

What? He always orders that.

And even "some water", though the dude is TOTALLY missing out with something so plain as water.
"Bart", on the other hand, has him going WTF I DON'T KNOW THIS DUDE.
Wary streetkid is a go. "I think you must be mistaken, because my name's not Bart."
no subject
She's eying AC with intent curiosity rather than any worry, though.
"It's Jay." Beat. "You know Jay?"
no subject
"Nice try. Just give me a water and I won't tell Oliver, or Clark, that you're underage and bartending."

And there is a WHOOSH and Bart is reading off the ingrediants from the book that was not there a second ago. "Gin, apricot brandy, Lemon juice, and grenadine."
no subject
"What he said! It's his favourite colour, at least."
no subject
Yep.
Still amused.

The last thought is almost a contradiction, so he doesn't think about it for very long.
He stands and stares at the board, trying to decide which special he'd like to try. He doesn't recognize any of them. He fiddles with his suspenders, then sticks his hands in his pockets and asks no one in particular, "What's a 'Yellow Strawberry'?"
no subject
"I don't really remember. We got it out of a book."
no subject
no subject
"Light rum, Creme de Banane, strawberries, sweet and sour, and banana."
WHOOSH.
And Christian has his drink! "Enjoy, dude."
(Hush, he totally does have the best bartending manner ever.)

"Bart? Aren't you a little young for this?" Ignore the fact that Clark has tended bar here twice himself. He's Clark.
no subject
"No."
He is totally prepared to claim to be twenty-one. Yep.
"You want anything, dude?"
no subject
"He prefers Jay," she states. "Does this make you Clark?"
no subject
"And yes, I'm Clark. Kent." He holds a hand out to Jenny. "You a friend of... Jay's from here?"
