Hermione inna bar!

"Hello, Bar," she says, patting the Bar's surface. "Any messages for me?"

None appear, so Hermione shrugs and orders a glass of milk and a swiss cheese sandwich. She's got a copy of Ender's Game open on the counter, and she reads while she eats.

OOM

Nita comes downstairs, sniffs the air, and abruptly decides that no, food will not help her headache. If the nausea's any indication, food won't help anything much. She orders a glass of water and commandeers a booth, looking paler than she realizes.

Her headache's not getting any better.

Upstairs in his room, The Corinthian is satisfied. He sets down the staple gun and opens his bottle of wine.

Every inch of wall and ceiling has been covered in the taffeta, givng the impression somewhat of being inside a huge pillow.

The room is definately, if unintentionally divided, with his bed, desk, bookcases and armoire taking up two corners,
and a collection of 8 mis-matched frames on the other two walls opposite.

The contents of the frames look as tho they may have come from a rummage sale, they are so seemingly random. A skull covered in glitter, an anhk, an LP record, a huge fishook, a hammer, a locket embedded in some chocolates, an open (blank) book, and finally: a skeleton key affixed to a shard of mirror.

"First, a bit of a swim in the old brain, then..." He says to himself, pouring himself a heroic glass of the wine, "...then to business."

He takes a conservative drink from his glass. "And I do love business."

Barry comes downstairs, in civvies, and gets his usual cup of something - decaf with cream today. He's in a good mood. He looks outside and notices it's a nice day.

He heads upstairs and then back, grabbing the maroon windbreaker with a Justice League logo on the left sleeve that the bar gave him some weeks ago, and then emerges into the pseudo-sunshine and relatively mild air.

The front door crashes open and in flies Lara Croft with her rocket launcher pressed into her shoulder. She slides across the floor and comes to rest facing the door.

A shadow falls across the bar, and those looking out can see only a large, yellow eye that takes up most of the doorway looking in...and focusing on Lara. Before any of the bar can react, Lara sets off a rocket straight at the eye.

An echo of thousands of screams fills the bar proper as smoke bellows out the door. Quicker then a flash, Lara has kicked the door shut, and the everything is once again quiet.

She takes in the fact that she has caused no damage whatsoever to the bar.





"...Huh. Must be losing my touch."


And she rocket launcher on the bar as she settles in for a drink.

Mike makes his way down the stairs from the guest suites. He's wearing a very familiar brown fedora hat, a matching bomber jacket, and there is even a whip attached to the side of his utility belt. He's a turtle on a mission. Nothing will stop him. Nobody's gonna breaka his stride. Nobody's gonna hold him down. OH NO! He gots to keep on movin'!

And in this case, he's moving to various points around the Bar, tapping on the wood looking for hollow spots and hidden doors. Heh, retard.

Claire steps behind the bar, setting Seth's baby carrier on the floor. She looks around, noticing quite a bit more dust and general disorder than is normal. She frowns curiously and sets to work, wiping the counters and glasses with a damp towel. A few minutes later, when she's pretty satisfied with the cleanliness of things, she looks around the bar with a smile.

"Can I get anyone anything?"

Susan goes to the bar for hot chocolate, and then turns to go settle on the couch that she's beginning almost to think of as 'hers.'

Some hours after he helped Charlie upstairs, after Lochiel gave them his terrible news, Liam returns to the main bar. He's carrying a clearly exhausted and sleeping Charlie, his face marked with tears, like a child - not without effort, but he's nearly a foot taller and considerably heavier than his brother, and he can manage this short distance.

He settles on a couch by the fire, Charlie cradled against him, and very softly starts to sing an Irish lullaby, hoping it'll soothe Charlie in his sleep.

[identity profile] tigatron.livejournal.com
Tigatron is once again in the bar, this time decidedly in a more relaxed mood than he was in during the other times he'd come close enough to the establishment to fraternise with the patrons as best he could, given his reserved nature.

Airazor has assured him that this bar is peaceful, and that violence is not tolerated by the bar or its management.

And though the bar is as artificial a structure as it always was to Tigatron (who has an innate distrust of anything "artificial" or at least "inorganic"), he's lying next to a roaring fire, asleep and content to know that this is a bar of peace.

It may not be the Vok-created flying island Tigatron tried to protect from Predacon forces but ended up destroying in order to save himself and his friends from Black Arachnia and her treachery, but it's home.

Home for as long as he and Airazor remain here at this Bar at the End of the Universe.

When Roland comes downstairs, he doesn't see anyone he knows. Good.

He goes to the bar and says in a low voice, "I want a sword. A good sword. The best. To aid in the disposal of vermin." If indirectly, he thinks. "Would you give me one?"

A long moment passes. The gunslinger waits.

Soon enough, a long, slightly curved sword in a scabbard appears. There's a tag on it. Roland turns it over, reads it.

Handcrafted by Hattori Hanzo.

If that's what the bar considers the best, Roland will take it. He does, and goes upstairs.
[identity profile] asar-suti.livejournal.com
Asar-Suti comes downstairs, his plans for the garden rolled-up under his arm. He gets a thermos of coffee from the bar, and then walks outside to potter among the plants. Water the seedlings, pat the little espalier trees, and proudly smile at the Purple Pride tulips in their terracotta pots that lend the unfinished place some early prettiness.

He walks down the few little steps to the lake and looks back. It doesn't look like much yet, but it looks cultivated. No longer like a haphazard back exit only good for walking away from towards the lake, or coming back to to enter the bar.

The small purple god turns female and has a ciggie while looking at the bar building, and the blue sky above it.

Whee, spring!

*Tim is standing at the back door, staring out at the lake. Theres something out there, isn't there? Something by the water... Why is it so hard to remember? He gets fleeting images of a darkened building, and notes...but then it's gone, locked away by whatever Millipower protects the Boathouse. He sighs, turning back to the bar, a smile spreading across his face. Hell with his memories, he's been promoted. He takes a moment to gaze over the bar seeking out his... and inside, he bounces up ad down happily about the fact that he can call them his.... people. This place is important. And Tim is going to make sure it stays safe. First things first, he makes it over to the board.*

"To whom it may concern,

*Then he takes a seat somewhere conspiuous with a cup of tea and a satisfied expression.*

It's been a while since Brad's sought out Milliways.

Not that he's avoiding the place after Valentine's Day. No, that's not it at all. He just - hasn't needed to. Really.

He could stand the break today, though, so in he comes, in somewhat better spirits than usual. He sits at the bar and orders a Budweiser and an ashtray. He doesn't pull out a cigarette right away, though, and for once he looks as though he wouldn't mind being approached.

Not saying he won't have plenty of sarcasm to offer. He's had a decent day, not a miracle.

The front door opens, and in walks Rand. He looks about briefly, then makes his way to the bar. Seeing no bartender about, he procures a glass of mulled wine, then finds an empty table and sits down, leaning the chair back slightly and putting his feet up.

Sipping his wine, he people watches.

Dianne comes downstairs. It may seem like a while since she's been around because her mun's life has been OMG crazy lately, but that's just because you keep missing her. Right?

At any rate, Dianne takes a seat at the bar, which provides her customary sweetened chamomile. She may look distracted, but would welcome - uh, some distraction. From her distraction. No, it makes sense, we promise.

For Grissom, several weeks have passed in his time since his last visit to Milliways. His left hand is heavily scarred from Yrael's claws.

Nevertheless, Elaine is rather down today. She really doesn't know what to do with herself.

There's a mouse in the bar. Or rather, a mouse on the Bar. She's bedecked in lace, and ribbons, and there are two silver bells tied to her tail. Her husband (and doesn't it feel strange to call Twit that, she thinks) sent them to her. They tinkle as she scurries across the Bar.

This is not the sewers of London, she realises.

Not, of course, that she should be down there anyway. But there's something about the Grill in the cellar that keeps tempting her down there, and besides, Jupiter's dead, and the rats are a cowardly lot these days...

There's a mouse on the Bar. And she's Lost.

Hagrid stomps into the bar, sopping wet, his giant boots squelching noisily.

His lantern had gone out as he was walking the grounds, and he’d fallen in the lake.

He strides to the door, and once again tries to open it, only to find it still locked against him. With a sigh, he flips his mass of wet bushy hair away from his face, accidentally spraying the people sitting nearby with lakewater.

“Sorry,” he says sheepishly. “Can anyone here do a drying charm?”

He spots the same man from the other night - the Tom Riddle look-alike, and shies away from that end of the bar, instead, choosing to sit at a small table with a spindly chair. He hopes it will bear his weight - the other man makes him uneasy for obvious reasons.

Anthy wanders in again, fetches another cup of tea from the bar, and heads for her favorite seat at the fireplace.

Nor does it look like Joar Addam Nessossin the famed composer. This man looks like Asmodean the Forsaken. With his dark eyes cold and filled with anger and his face pulled taut, it would be conceivable that this man is responsible for the deaths of millions. This man could have murdered his own mother in cold blood.

A line of heatless fire runs along the floor.

The line widens, as if some gap in reality's seams were being temporarily squeezed open.

A shining figure, armored in gold and caped in red, rises out of the glowing hole in the universe.

"Happy N-Day, everybody!" says Divis Mal as he hovers off the floor.

A moment later, the glow fades, revealing undamaged floor. Mal drifts back down into gravity's gentle embrace, his costume reverting to Dr. Primoris' sensible gray suit as he lands.

Once again, Cassandra found herself in the bar. It was still an odd thing, but she was gradually adapting to the fact that whenever she tried to go somewhere, there was the possibility of ending up at Milliways.

She found herself a seat at the farthest bar stool at the bar, not quite backing up into the shadows but not making herself particularly noticable, too. She wasn't very good at the whole socializing thing, after all. Not because she was anti-social, but because she didn't really meet people that much.

Come, venture to draw her out of her little corner.
