And there's a wizard sitting at a corner table in the bar. No telling how long he's been there. He's not doing anything special, just eating dinner, drinking tea and reading a book that the Bar provided: The Portable Greek Historians. (Not what he expected, but he's not going to criticise or argue with the Bar.) His crystal case is beside his left foot.

Feel free to interrupt him, if you like.

There was no door leading to where she'd come from, escaping Hell wasn't that easy after all. She remembered the searing pain in her wrist though, John smiling at her as he pressed the Rhapsody into her dead flesh and saved her. Redemption...not a word she'd ever thought could be as sweet as this...

Though...where was this?

She drew a shuddering breath and looked around, numbers immediately popping to life before her gaze. The face of a clock, barcodes on beer bottles, chair legs...all of them whispered to her, and they said "Not in Hell...not in Heaven...dead dead dead but saved"

Well...she was feeling pretty good for a dead girl, and she'd never believed she'd see Heaven anyway...so this place was just right. The tattered remains of her fishnet and jeans still carried the scent of brimstone and blood, but she didn't care.

She was free.

...and she'd kill for a cigarette.

Tilly had come to Milliways.

There is an angel in Milliways.

Well, there usually is. But this one's the girl.

Sariel is looking very very innocent, which is usually cause to worry. But she's late for the chaos with her friends -- and is only safe downstairs now that she knows things are Generally Rather Okay, Ace-wards.

And now she's sitting.

And looking very, very innocent.

Tonight, there was chaos. A bubbly, amusing sort of chaos, but one that landed a good portion of the bar at least ankle deep in assorted goop and most the tables at least peppered with tidbits and stickiness.

And Rachel promised to do at least something to help. And lo, the goopy morass on the floor parts and then swirls upward into a funnel of sticky debris, finding a conveniant drain to go down. The hoses of seltzer water are neatly tucked back away, the harder to reach areas stripped of fruit pieces and stray whipped cream...

Eventually, the worst of the weight mass from the fight is taken care of, though what it'll do to the drains is anyone's guess. Sentience isn't ruled out at all. What remains is a sad and bedraggled bar, sticky spots and dried goop that refused to move along with the rest...

Not a fun time, but not as bad as it could be...

All in all, Rachel calls it living up to the bargain of a shower.

The front door of Milliways shimmers and not so much opens as unfolds. Beyond, a ragged crowd boiling in the Arrakeen sunlight. A cloaked figure groans and staggers backward, clutching his chest, as another buries a crysknife in it. As the hooded one reaches the doorway, he seems to divide in half, with one part slumping to the dusty ground and another taking a teetering step across the threshhold. The door shimmers again and is closed. Another dead messiah has walked into the bar.

Rather than falling like his vanished twin, the cloaked man turns, revealing that the crysknife has also disappeared. Realizing that he isn't injured after all, he finds with a shock that he's no longer blind, either. Searching the room with his blue-in-blue eyes, he mutters, "I don't know this place." Its smell is too clean, too wet, and completely devoid of the Spice. He instinctively searches within for the future pathways that he knows shouldn't be there, and sees no future. Pathways abound, but all of them end beyond these walls or curve upon themselves into the past. For a minute that stretches into several, he marvels at this.

Utterly lost, Paul Atreides goes to the nearest empty table and sits, staring at the menagerie around him with a measured awe. Somebody buy this man a spiced beer.

Barry is seating by the fireplace, in a state of calm. Despite everything, he feels good, and knows that if he strives to keep this sense of calm for even a little while, then perhaps he can deal with the disease, and with Q, and with the state of the security staff, without getting flustered.

He sips at a tall glass of iced passion fruit tea, and ponders what to have for breakfast.

Andres is in the bar sitting in a booth in a corner. His chin is resting in one hand and hes staring out the window. The Complete Works of Shakespeare is sitting near his elbow, unopened, and there is a piece of creased parchment laying on the table in front of him. Frequently he looks away from the window and takes a drink. Occasionally he rubs his forehead as if he as a headache, and even more occasionally, he glances at the parchment and scowls.

Despite this, he is in a decent mood, if slightly worried. Go ahead and visit.

Today is Wednesday.

Edmund starts work on Friday.

Bernard said he was to pick specials on his own.

He's fairly certain, having watched the other bartenders, that the specials ought to be somewhat original.

Which would be why Edmund has gone up to Bar and asked her a question quietly, and was not entirely surprised to get a very large book as an answer.

Also a pot of tea, because one can never go wrong with tea.

He takes his new acquisitions over to one of the couches, and makes himself comfortable.

It's a big book.

He had just said his last farewell to Le Phantome Familiar, who he knew the real reason why it had sheparded him, and prodded him throughout his entire life. The catspaw of the Lylmik, guardian of the Remilliard Dynasty.

He glanced down at Marcel, his Maine Coon cat, "Reckon's that's that, old Fur-Face. Let's get on to bed."

He opened the door to his bedroom, and stepped through. A bar in his bedroom? Bonne chance indeed!

"Batège! C'est vrai?" He was certainly up for a little celebrating, and cackled a little, rubbing his hands with glee. And it looked very well-stocked! Mon Dieu est le bon Dieu!

Nanami (that's the towel, if you missed the memo that Trillian sometimes takes advice from Anthy) is flung casually around her neck, like a scarf, and she falls into her usual booth.

He's going to be in so much trouble.

Anyway, here he is in a booth, having managed to make his way down the stairs without falling. He's dressed only in a pair of jeans and wrapped in a couple of blankets that occasionally shift so that you can see the green scaly skin that has completely taken over his right side. His hand on that side is still missing, as are a couple of toes now.

A plate of dry toast sits nearby. He attempted to eat, but that just wasn't happening.

Claire's behind the bar today. Didn't think she would be? Well, you thought wrong. She's behind the bar and she's already cleaned and straightened everything twice. She looks tired and stressed and generally dissatisfied with life, but that's all par for the course lately.

Her smile, when she turns to face the patrons around the bar, is genuine though. But that's probably because she hasn't seen the source of her worries sitting in a booth to the side of the bar.

Yet, anyways. So take advantage of her ignorance.

Naraht's in the bar.

The splint is gone and her step is a little steadier. She also seems slightly more with-it. Having a mission to focus on is helping some.

She is heading toward the Bar. She stops for a moment just before she gets there. Her lips press into a hard line before she takes the final steps.

"Excuse me, Bar," she says in a tightly controlled voice. "May I please have a small voice recorder?"

Nothing. The Bar seems to exude an air of bewilderment. As if she has noticed Naraht's avoidance and is...well not quite "hurt" and not quite "miffed". Naraht's jaw hardens.

"Yes, I've been avoiding you. I am not pleased with how you treated a friend of mine, but that is immaterial at the moment. I am on a mission for Barry to document the extent of the outbreak here in Milliways. So..."

The recorder appears on the Bar's surface. Naraht collects it. "Thank you, Bar. Perhaps we will talk later, but I have work to do at the moment."

Naraht begins making her round of the ground floor of Milliways, starting with the booths so that she has something handy to clutch if her balance becomes uncertain. After she explores the main areas (which will take a while given how big the place is), she will do the grounds and then see how far she can get in the rooms upstairs.

If you're sick, moan or cough loudly.

She had been about to enter her ruined home to see what she could salvage.

Strange beings are scattered through the giant room. Not Gelfling. Not Podling. Not even Ur-Skek. She scowls as her eye looks over everything and is about to go back through the Door when...

Christian has developped a serious writer's block. Having hidden in his room for ages, trying to write and trying to forget the sad incidents, he is completely unaware of the illness and the quest. He comes down from his room and doesn't even discern the tension in the room. He turns to the bar to have his fill of absinthe. Maybe he will meet the green fairy, or, even better, forget.

There is a once and future king in the bar.

He is very obviously Max, once King Zan of Antar, because of his hands.

They're stuck on cerulean.

He's looking down at them and fighting, in his head, with Zan.

The hands aren't budging.

BAMF.
And Q is in the bar.
No, wait. That's a different canon. Damn. So, standard flash of light, ho hum.

Naraht walks over to bar and places a data chip on her top.

"If you would please see that Barry gets that, Bar. It contains some important information."

The chip vanishes and Naraht goes back to work.

There is a very serious-looking redhead in the bar. At the bar, actually, staring into a strong mug of tea.

The last dream - whatever it was - had not been nearly so serious, and so she has had something resembling sleep, but the implications are far more worrying.

After a while, she goes outside. Then comes back, and speaks to the bar for a minute or two. She leaves then, tucking a knife into her belt.

Danielle Rousseau was gathering plantains in the jungle, a half-mile from her hidden, underground hideout when she heard the whispers. Immediately aiming her rifle, she stopped and turned slowly, almost certain that the voices were coming from behind her. That is, if there were really any whispers at all.

When she turned to raise the rifle in her defense, however, she found herself staring at a door. Having been alone on a deserted island in the middle of nowhere with its fair share of oddness for the past sixteen years, this shouldn't surprise her but it does. After a moment of staring, Danielle makes a decision.

Doors must be opened.

She enters into Milliways bar with her finger on the trigger.

*Well-armed and dressed for traveling, Alanna exits the staff quarters and looks around the room. She stops by the notice board and rereads Lady Ako's notice about the illness, shaking her head. Restless and ready to be on the way, she climbs up on a chair near the door and speaks loudly, but not overly so.*

Right. Who is going with me?

[OOC: Narnia-quest participants only please.]

Connor MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod.

He's in the bar.

You'll never guess what he's drinking.

Go on... guess.

Bet you got it wrong.

*Tara opens the door and walks into the bar, looking around and taking in her surroundings. She looks very confused. She slowly makes her way over to the bar and sits down, peeking out from under her hair. At the moment, she's too shy and confused to initiate conversation, so she continues looking around, hoping someone might speak to her and give her an idea of what's going on*

Arithon is in the bar.

He looks pretty much normal for him.

And (fear) he's got his lyranthe and music spread out before him.

Today, Biff bounds downstairs! He orders his pizza! He invests in exclamation marks and throws himself on the sofa!

The sun is shining (somewhere)! A healthy breeze is wafting around his nether regions! There is so much to be happy about! Really!

Enter one sunburned pilot in an obvious hurry, several sheets of paper in hand. He makes a beeline for the Bar and drops the papers on it.

"Hey, can you give these to Lilly Kane?'' )

They disappear. Wash smiles, a bit tightly, and is already turning to go when another note appears. He blinks in puzzled surprise and picks it up.

A few moments pass in silence as he reads. Then he sinks onto a stool and puts his head in his hands, face equal parts concern and confusion as he reads it again.

Anybody want to explain to him just what in the gorram hell's going on here?

Grumpy Vampire Executioner.

At the bar, and watching the people. Not near as pissed as last night, well better hidden at least. She has a soda, and a book and annoyingly enough Bar has produced a stuffed Penguin.

Poke her with a stick!

A rather soaked Valentine walks into the bar from the back. She's in a grees swimsuit, which is now covered by a towel. Plunking on a stool at the bar, a book appears in front of her, along with a steaming mug of tea. Eyeballing the book: (Der Prozess mit Die Verwandlung) she picks it up and starts to read, still dripping, and very much still in her swimsuit.

Malcolm is in the bar. Sitting in one of the booths, reading a book. From time-to-time he tries to pick up a glass of Laphroaig. Then realizes he's trying to use the hand that isn't there.

Some might find this comical.

What's he reading? "Casting the Runes and Other Ghost Stories," by M. R. James.

That Bar. She's quite the kidder.

After spending most of the day in and out of the bar and a large part of the morning swimming, Kim's ready for a snack.

She comes down to the bar and is about to order something when she spots someone that she thought she'd never have to see again. 'Ramon Salazar'.

Whatever she is about to say she forgets as she stares at the man. Her eyes widen and she unconsciously holds onto a chair for support.

'No, he can't be here, he can't be here...' she thinks as her heart beats faster and she can feel the phantom pain of broken fingers. A memory he probably doesn't have.

She wants to run, but she can't, stuck in one spot as images she's tried to forget seep back into her brain.

Kim takes a breath and tries to keep herself from screaming.

[ooc: Summary for 24-ways - "Snowflake" comes to calm down a shaken Kim, he makes her feel better and then goes off to 'meet' the person who caused her distress. Kim has no idea how much Snowflake could protect her. In a thread that somehow happens at the same time, Nita comes and makes sure Kim's okay, they talk about Nita's family and Chris's illness. Nita promises Kim that nothing will happen to her.]

[OOM: Barty inna kitchen. He's starting his punishment work there. Baldrick's got plenty of chores for him to be getting on with!]

Barty's in the bar, and he's quite tired. A hard afternoon of cleaning out an encrusted wok does that to you.

Faith is curled up on one of the sofas in front of the fireplace, coffee cup in hand and a pensieve expression on her face.

Yeah, Faith's thinking. No it doesn't hurt.

Merriman has a newspaper in front of him, but it's rather obvious that his full attention is not on it. Rather, his attention seems to be divided between the newspaper and a silent observation of the number of patrons in the bar who are exhibiting signs of illness, or other things.

His cup of tea is tepid. That will have to be rectified at some point.

Trillian

(Tricia -- Not Tricia, Trillian -- Trillian Astra, Trillian)

is cold.

Sitting in the bar, leaning against the wall, just slightly frightened, and not liking other people's identity crises.

She's gotten over the shock, right now. That bit's okay.

She's just a little worried.

She could use her friends.

Kon is sitting at a booth, tapping his fingers against it as he stares at a wall. He is bored. Not only that, but he is -very- bored.

In fact, one might say he is EXTREMELY bored.

A distraction of some sorts? Would be very appreciated.

*Snow, Millie and Wade are at the usual booth after finishing dinner, the family curled up together and Snow reading to them from a book she got from Bar. It's probably Dr. Seuss or at least something that is most definately not a fairy tale*

Raina's at the bar, sipping at a cup of tea. There's a bowl of soup in front of her, barely touched. She's turned slightly so that she can see at least a decent portion of the room, but for once she seems more curious than wary.

Not that curious is necessarily better.

*Damn he's missed this place.*
