Roland has given up on the Flannery O'Connor. He's back with the Tolkien. Is it an improvement? Depends on the literary critic you ask.

At any rate, he's not paying much attention to it. Instead he's got a ballpoint pen and he's doodling on a napkin. Might be roses.

River isn't in her room, or in the dining area. Ordinarily Simon would check the other crew's rooms first, but ... this seemed more likely.

There are very few things that could distract Simon from searching for his missing sister. One of them is lying on the floor near the back door.

He hurries over.

*Crowley, looking tired, stressed, but vaguely triumphant, slinks back into the bar. From the door leading out to the lake.

He scans the bar, and as an afterthought, crouches down to check under the tables. Not seeming to find what - or who - he's looking for, Crowley settles himself at a table with a good view of the front door*

He'd been kin-wrecked. He'd gone to Solinde, he'd wed. And he had almost put this place out of his mind. But as he'd been heading to the sunroom for a few moments to himself, he found this inn instead.

"...Aye, when my sanity has returned..." he murmured, shaking his head.

He would not be drinking. Nor would he be accepting strange kisses. He's learned his lesson already.

Val walks up to the bar, looking like she slept perhaps an hour all night. "Bar, can I have a book on the Hutts?" A book appears, in an oddly angular alphabet. Val curses under her breath. "Frellit, Bar, can't you give me something I can -read-?" A paper appears. Hutts are large, worm-like creatures. "Alright, then, Bar, I get it. Just give me an Aurebesh primer, and we'll call it even." The requested book appears, along with a mug of tea. Grumbling about snarky, sentient furniture, she plunks at a table, and opens the primer, taking notes as she goes.

The Librarian wanders into Milliways, carrying two or three thick, heavy books that seem to be fluttering lightly, and sits down at a corner table, watching the patrons. He has both badges with him, now; his badge as officer of the Watch, and his badge as Bar Security.

He bites the Bar Security badge thoughtfully, pondering. Either badge would do, really, but both together, he thinks, is a very good case for being able to interfere when needed.

'Needed' being in a completely different frame of reference compared to humans.

The day after the werewolf incident, Abby had worn baggy pants to work so that she wouldn't have to explain why she had bandages on her legs. After all, the NCIS team could be pretty protective of its members, and she didn't want to worry them about something they couldn't do anything about. And really, the injuries weren't that big of a deal. No infection or anything. She had checked in with a doctor just in case. Not Ducky though, of course.

Still, she was cautious when she saw that she had ended up in the bar once again. Peering around, the gothic lab technician checked the area for any dangers -- like, say, a rampaging werewolf. But everything seemed to be back to normal. Well, as normal as a bar at the end of the universe was.

Sighing in relief -- okay, so she was being a melodramatic, but it was fun -- she made her way over to one of the bar stools, not hopping on it as usual because of doctor's orders, but being fairly cheerful anyway.

Well, not exactly a cantina, a place like he has never seen before. He stands there for a moment, hand linked in his belt. Why had the Force sent him here, what was he supposed to do?

Pre-Milliways Cuthbert got himself killed rather a lot last night.

So, Milliways-Cuthbert had the night off, and is blissfully unaware of anything--or anyone--that may have gone into--or come out of--any evil magic doors last night.

So he's at a corner table, blitely sipping coffee and thinking that life at Milliways is going pretty well right now.

Let's see how long it takes him to get disabused of that notion, shall we?

It's a day.

The weather on the asteroid is changing to reflect the weather at Hogwarts, and Bill does a mental check on what the weather should be like in Luxor, Cairo, Aswan by this calendar.

Warmer.

He misses Egypt, and so he orders a glass of pomegranate wine. It's nearly as potent as Shady's Dragon's Blood, and for a moment he admires those ancient Egyptian wizards who created the brew before the rest of the country knew about distillation. It's a rich blood-red in colour, rich and heady, and he knows better than to drink too much of it.

Taking a sip, he savours it: it reminds him of his home-away-from-home, his adopted country. He misses the sounds and smells and sand and heat.

He even misses the thieves and con-men.

And the Sphinxes.

The film had been just wonderful and Gil couldn't wait to see the rest of it.

But he had jobs to do today so was up quite early and very busy.

He took up the books the dear Bar had selected for Mr Van Helsing - why those particular books he wasn't sure but he hoped they would suit - then he had got breakfast and lunch sorted and dinner or the go.

Then he had looked at the calendar and had a happy thought. Which was why he had been jumping around at the edges of the forest collecting bits of hazel with fluffy catkins and had begged the Bar to provide some bunches of spring flowers. He wasn't much use at flower arranging, subscribing to the technique of holding flowers in one hand and vase in the other and bringing the two together, but you couldn't go far wrong with daffoldils, narcissi and dangly yellow catkins.

One nice bunch went upstairs with a breakfast tray for Claire and another was left, hopefully, propped against the House of Arch picture with a label reading "For Mrs Bigby". The rest, tied into little bunches, went into a large jug on the Bar.

Gil smiled to himself a bit wistfully as he wrote the specials up:

Dear Customers of Milliways and especially all the Mum's who may read this.

Today is Mothering Sunday in Britain though we appreciate that it isn't elsewhere. If you are a Mum please help yourself to the flowers on the Bar with the thanks of sons and daughters everywhere.

Our specials today are our usual Sunday Roasts with all the vegetables and accompaniments you might expect.

Don't forget to eat your greens.


And he drew his smilie faun underneath then went back to the kitchen.

The Triplets, prone to making a scene wherever they go, do not come quietly down the stairs. Instead, the two boys, who had woken up cranky, tumble down the stairs, clawing at each other and hitting each other with sticks. Shock walks slowly behind them, peering out at the patrons, looking for the big man from last night.

She hisses at her brothers, but they don't hear her. They land at the foot of the stairs and Barrel releases Lock who rolls into a chair. They both jump up, look around, and smile widely. They grab their masks from where they had flown, and run to grab seats at the Bar.

The puff of smoke that brings George Weasley to the Bar is neither colorful nor impressive. It's rather gray and well, a dud. Dudish. Dudley-ish. Ha.

George makes his way to the bar counter and orders a butterbeer, sulking too much to even order something to get him properly drunk. Besides, he doesn't want to be that pathetic.

As he sits there, the sighing starts. One every few minutes, approximately five seconds long, and full of disappointment. And loneliness.

George Weasley, infamous prankster and one half of the Terrible Two of Hogwarts, is, gasp and horror, thinking about a family. Mostly how he wants one of his own someday. He's thinking about how it can't all be laughs and jokes and especially how he wants a lovely lady and maybe a few brats to share quite a few laughs and jokes with.

He's also thinking about how that's never going to happen if he's all jokes and pranks and irresponsibility, and lets his work take over him at the same time. He's thinking how that's never going to happen if this war goes on, too, because he doesn't want to put that lovely lady and those brats into danger, and being a member of the Order of the Phoenix means danger.

For you see, dear readers, George Weasley, infamous prankster and one half of the Terrible Two of Hogwarts, is, believe or not--gasp, shock, and horror--starting to grow up.

Now, if someone would pass the smelling salts around to all those who have passed out from shock, that would be quite nice. Thank you.

Asmodean walked slowly down the stairs. Noticeably without his harp.

No, this is not Bizarro-Asmodean.

He glanced around conspiratorially before walking over to the piano. He stared at the keys for awhile, before he put his fingers to them. He pushed the keys for awhile to get a feel for them. He experimented with the pedals some.

He hated practicing in public.

Very softly, Asmodean began to play some very simple melodies. He had played an instrument somewhat similar, but he still had to grasp the nuances.

With long pauses in between each short piece, Asmodean slowly began to practice the piano. Simple, almost-child-like melodies clunked from the piano. He approached this with a great deal of intensity, despite the sounds resulting.

Go ahead, bother him. He is not angsting. Well, over his past anyways.

He walks right over to the bar and, after looking around a little guiltily, asks quietly, "Chocolate cake, please. With ice cream."

A bowl of buttery grits and a plate of bacon appears instead. "Awww...," James complains, but he climbs into a seat and starts to eat anyway. Maybe, if he eats this, the bar will give him cake.

Bill Weasley is an evil, evil man. Therefore he is the one you should blame for unleashing drunken Weasley twins upon the bar.

The very first thing they do is stand upon a table, and get ready to sing. What they sing about, is, of course, Quidditch. In very loud voices. That are out of tune.

The song, is, of course, quite indecent.

Build a bonfire, build a bonfire
Put France on the top!
Put Spain in the middle
and burn the fucking lot!

Build a compost heap, build a hee-eap
Put Bulgaria on the bottom!
Put the Swedes in the middle
And the kiwis can go an' sod'em!

Pass the Quaffle, pass the quaffle!
Beat those bludgers at their faces!
Send a wink to the pretty ladies,
And everything will be aces!

Pass the beer, pass the beer,
Pass the beer around the room!
Then the ladies will simply love you,
And go for rides on your broom!


Feel free to heckle. Or alternately...

"Any requests?" George calls out, laughing so hard he might fall off the bar.

Also, please note there is a tray of treats on bar counter. It is quite innocuous. And there is a note there in Val's characteristic green ink that says:

I made some snacks for everyone. No reason really; I just wanted to treat you all. Help yourselves and please don't be greedy!

Yes, bargoers. Help yourselves. And have your hair turn purple and turn into giant canaries.
