For once, Sands is moving without purpose, and has been doing so for some time. He drifts from table to table, sunglasses firmly in place but the face beneath them pale and strangely blank. There’s a cigarette in his hand, dangerously close to burning his fingers, and he drags on it as though it caused him personal injury.

Watch closely, however, and a pattern may begin to emerge, as the spiral he walks- has been walking for the past few hours- takes him once again past the wall where, for you perhaps, a door may be.

It is the fifth, or maybe the sixth, time passing that he snarls, face twisting, “Just. Fucking- Open!”

The door remains non-existent and Sands, scowling, continues his prowl of the bar.

Maybe not so purposeless after all.

Steph staggers down the stairs early in the morning, and keeps on going right through the bar. The back door slams, there's a loud splash, a yelp - as of a young face coming into contact with cold water, for example - and then the door opens again, and Steph, dripping and wide awake, comes back in.

"Bar? Food. Uh, something greasy. ... With gravy! You know, that totally awful potatoes and gravy mash thing the fried chicken place used to make on Earth. Like, concentrated mush. That stuff." A bright smile.

It appears. So; teenager at the Bar, sporting crumpled pyjamas, dripping hair, and a hangover, tucking into a little plastic container of goop like it's the best thing since sliced bread.

It is a night like any other for Penelope Clearwater, the exception being that she's up rather later than she tends to be for reasons of insomnia.

She shuffles downstairs, wearing the St. Mungo's utterly ridiculous nightdress (it made financial sense to just wear what she had, rather than try to buy anything else off the bar), and goes in search of tea.

A few moments later, she and her cup of tea go to the door.

It's habit, at this point. And besides, that's how she got out last time.





As the door swings open onto the halls of St. Mungo's, Penelope reflects that persistence frequently pays off.

Except for the part where everyone's going to wonder where the hell she's been this time.

Perhaps if I'm very quiet, they won't notice me.

Cassie practically bounds down the stairs from room seven. She goes over to Bar, obviously on a mission. Something is scribbled something on a piece of paper, then placed on Bar.
"I'd like all of that. Oh, oh! In a box, please."
The paper disappears, and after a moment a box materializes in it's place.

Cassie thinks for a moment, then whispers, "Can I borrow a room for a day?"
There is no response.
"Please? Just for a day. It's for..well, the same thing as the stuff in the box.
Still no response.
"I promise"
There is a long pause, then a key appears.
"Thanks!"

She scampers back upstairs.

So after her panic attack and after the noise had died down, Isuzu was back in the bar.

Somehow, she had picked up a couple of pencils and some white letter-sized paper, some of the paper had some things on the back but, she used the blank sides.

And, thanks in part to her mun, she's now at the bar and sketching something out on the paper.

She knows nothing of how the bar she's drawing on works.

Someone wanna be a friend to her and help her out? She looks a little lonely.

Feel free, she's a little melancholy right now.

Sitting out on the roof of Milliways is a female figure. At first glance it's hard to tell who it is, but once the lion, glowing softly in the moonlight appears, it's obvious who the figure is.

Strength.

And somewhere out in the grassy field is a lone wolf, midnight-black in colour.

Wheel, who apparently is still in her wolf-shape from earlier that evening.

It's a cool night and all three are enjoying it.

Even if Strength can't wander the grounds due to prowling shifters she'll happily watch them roam about the fields and forests of Milliways Bar.

"--the kriff? Runt? What'd you do to this place? I haven't even been gone four hours!" He looks around for his horse-faced bunk- and wingmate, but can't seem to find him... and for good reason.

Hank settles at the bar, drinking his coffee and watching the bar. A long day. Watching his school... his home, turn completely chaotic, and watching the few students left start to go cabin fever-ey, was getting to him. Along with his inability to make any headway on finding a way to restore those who wanted it... Everything was turning out so dark. Some days... some days he wondered. So he came here.

He watches the bar, and wonders, and drinks.

After having recovered and rested Alice is downstairs in the bar again. She's back to being dressed how she normally would be and is back to being decked out in her guns. Now more than ever she doesn't feel safe. Well... no, that isn't true. After her bad run in with Umbrella Corp again she's not sure what mutation her body has taken on. She's still got the strength, agility and such along with the telekinesis. But after this last time she's not sure she wants to know what'll surface due to being experimented on and being injected with the T-virus again. She knows that she's Umbrella Corporation's best and strongest bio weapon and that should scare her. But for some odd damn reason it doesn't. They consider her nothing but a project. Project Alice they call her. Her eyes roam around the bar for a moment seeing its patrons as if she were looking through night vision goggles even though she isn't. She's seeing them through her real eyes. Kind of creepy if people really knew that.

Distractions would be good. Or just company. Doesn't really matter. For now the bio weapon is sitting in a dark booth just watching people or perhaps she's seeing through them, or just zoned. You never really know. Either way it goes... she's got her guns nearby and before anyone asks like the one blonde haired man did, no she doesn't think all the guns are too excessive in a place with a no violence rule.

There's a table near the middle of the bar. For over a year and a half, it's been stained, almost strangely prominantly with green ink. Many times, there's a blonde woman sitting at it. Today is no different. What -is- different, however, is the woman's red-rimmed eyes, and the brown over-Jedi-robe she's wearing. Hunched over a notebook, she seems to almost stab at the words with her pen. The empath, for once, needs a hug.

Happy Anniversary, Valentine.

The twins came in through the window again, the observation window, ghosting for longer than usual, drifting through the bar to the fireside, filtering slowly to solid once more, one perched on either end of the couch, watching the flames and then scanning the bar, their movements even more in unison than usual, more in synch than ever after watching the end of the universe up close.

Go ahead and talk to them though, they aren't as distant as they seem, and they do like meeting people.

For one, it wasn't exactly sanitary.

"Bar, I don't suppose you could retrieve my sword for me?" he asks. "I feel like a practice session."

Bar produces a sword, a long, light, silver sword, not unlike his real one, but not the same, not the same at all, and Sam shakes his head. However, he picks it up with a grumbling murmur, and heads outside.

He pauses, closes his eyes, sliding back into practice mode, and his hands and feet slide into the same practice dance that he's been doing for centuries.

Sam can do this without thinking, almost. So feel free to bother the immortal, he's really very unlikely to slice your head off by accident.

Tonight, a shirt without a collar (only a simple band collar. Red, white, and navy stripe. Two-button cuffs, real pearl buttons, brass stud at the neck.) with a heavy tumbler of Żubrówka ("it smells of freshly mown hay and spring flowers") vodka over ice. His attaché case has been exchanged for a leather suitcase of some kind, a weekender. (A Gladstone, that's what they used to call them.)

He is reading from a book (Trump: The Art of the Deal) between leisurely sips and pauses to make a few notes into his Filofax in neat blue ink.

Today, Sands is sitting at the bar. For once, not smoking, though he’s got his spare lighter out and is flicking it idly, watching the flame as it sparks and dies. He’s smiling faintly and without a trace of humour.

There's a small child in the bar.

Well, not so small. A few weeks have passed in Libria and Robbie's a growing boy. (Taller if anything)

He takes a cautious look around and darts back into the bar.

Maybe you can catch him. If you're quick.

[oom: Flight of the Tarkheena.]

She closed her eyes as she pushed the door open. It all felt wonderfully ceremonial; the street would be different now when she opened them. Wider. As she rode out of the city all would avert their eyes and bow, reflecting their gratitude that such a highly born Tarkheena moved among them and allowed them to look upon her unescorted. Once free of the walls of Azim Balda she would don the armor of her brother once more, fasten his blade to her side and ride for the North. Under cover of darkness, the stars glittering above like oil on velvet trapping and reflecting the candles of a shrine, she would approach Tashbaan, home of the Tisroc--may he live forever--and pass right under his nose, and Ahoshta's. She would move through the city undaunted, the sunlight radiant upon her as she passed through the northern gates. Hwin would take her through the Tombs while it was still li...

Why did the streets of Azim Balda sound like a tavern?

And smell like a tavern?

And look like a tavern? Well, sort of.

Aravis' eyes flicked over the scene in front of her. Clearly she had chosen the wrong door to exit by, but the Post of Azim Balda kept a very queer sort of dining hall. She had been here before and could recall no such room. Never mind that no one here looked like a Calormene. Azim Balda was a center for trade, a cultural crossroads. She was likely to meet all manner of demons and infidels here. She would simply have to remain strong until she could figure a way to leave without attracting notice, as surely all had seen her enter.

Likely this wrong turn was a sign from Tash the omnipotent, the indefatigable. His mighty hand had steered her here to keep her from danger in the street just now or to permit her a respite before the next leg of her journey. Surely no one would blame her for treating it as such. His will was unknowable.

She sat at an empty table and wished she had her brother's blade nearby as she waited to be served.

Sheppard is incredibly hungover at the moment. However, he's also on a mission at the moment. There's a Earth to save once he's finally unBound, after all, and that can't be done alone. Which is why there's now a sign tacked up.

Wanted: Suicidally virtuous heroes, preferrably with experience of inter-planetary travel, murderous monsters and certain peril. Must be prepared to travel. Must bring own weapons; chestplates preferred. No evils worse than the Wraith.

If interested, leave a note for John Sheppard or Rodney McKay.


Once that's done, he heads over to the bar and sits down, rubbing at his forehead. Stupid hangover.

Mr. Universe is in the bar, hunched over his laptop as usual.

Come get his attention away from whatever he's doing. Make him eat, maybe.

It's late afternoon, via some slight twist of Millitime. The sun is lowering in the west, gilding the lake and the nearest ranks of clouds, and a honey-golden light pours over forest and field. Most of the trees are still bare of leaves or only beginning to haze green with buds, and the grass is still half winter-brown, but the air is warm. Early wildflowers are in bloom, and spring seems to be finally settling in to stay.

Boukephalos is picking his way along a muddy stretch of trail down by the lake. River balances easily on his back, slim and erect, and tilts her head back to watch a bird fly overhead.
