Special Agent, being special, in the Bar

[paladinsuitsyou]

And by 'special,' we mean 'drinking coffee and reading case notes.' There's a kid without a mom out there, and he'll be damned if he lets that case slide, even if it means working extra hours at the Bar at the End of the Universe.

This case - it's gotten to him, all right. The small town, the people, the kid.

Yeah. It's gotten to him.

((Off to bed - I plan to catch the rest of the tags tomorrow.))

The door to the bar opens, and Dinah comes in -

- no, sorry, the door to the bar opens and the Black Canary comes in, because someone forgot to change.

Picture a young blonde woman with a black leather jacket over her ridiculously low cut bodice, gloves and boots with noticeable cuffs, and nothing on her legs except for fishnet tights. She heads to the bar and orders a lemonade, where she sits, glowing in the satisfaction of a first job done.

Mallory is sitting in a booth with her arm in a sling, a laptop computer open in front of her, and a text book beside it.

There are shadows around her eyes, and and a faint scowl on her face as she occasionally makes an attempt to type one-handed.

She probably wouldn't bite your head off if you interrupted her.

When's the last time you saw an elephant in a bar?  Sitting on a table?  There's one there now that (usually) answers to the name of Stampy.

Sitting  cross-legged on the floor in front of the table, there's a (half) giant trying to get the miniphant to do small tricks by tempting her with peanut butter filled pretzels from a bag in his hand.  They're meeting with limited success.

Feel free to come by and chat!

It's time to visit the rafters again. Those this time, Charlie is climbing from rafter to rafter, testing his balance, his agility, and his endurance. Every so often he stops and looks down to see who's around, but then he starts moving again.

He isn't trying for stealth, though, and odds are that people below will see him.

[OOC: Millitimed to late last night.]

Tali is not prone to nightmares - fortunately - but everyone has them once in a while, and Tali's got material for some really scary ones.

She recently woke up from a bad dream, and didn't feel like going back to sleep or being alone. So she got up, put on her environment suit, grabbed a mostly-finished quilt, and left her sterilized room for the bar proper. She's sitting in front of the fireplace, working on her quilt and occasionally staring distractedly into the fire.

Although she usually sings or hums while she's quilting, she can't bring herself to do it now.

Cata's been trying to adjust to being Bound. At first, it didn't go so smoothly - even with the arsenal of useful information she got from Ben - but anyone's allowed a day or so to sulk, and it's not going to impact her recovery efforts if she hasn't started yet.
She's not sure how well the training grounds will serve her, once she's done the bulk of her work; her combat skills weren't the strongest to begin with, and she has little hope of rebuilding them. But for now, it's not a bad arrangement.
Presently, she's inside to rest a bit, and examining the odd arrangement of boxes to one side of the bar. One of them has a music box not unlike Artie's attached to it, giving her some idea of what the rest of the boxes are for; still, she's sticking with what's been explained to her for now, and the small box's operation is relatively easy to sort out once she tries.
She ends up choosing 'shuffle songs,' and jumps a bit when the music starts playing all over the bar. That wasn't what she was expecting to happen. The song's also quite unlike anything she's heard before, but when the chorus comes along
(I wanna thank you for lettin' me be myself again)
she finds she quite understands the sentiment.

bartending!

An afternoon workout, a nice long shower, and now a couple of hours behind the bar: it's not a bad day at the end of the universe.

As good as it gets without a few important people around, anyway.

Damp hair held back in a loose ponytail, Tifa picks up a piece of chalk and begins writing on the board.

Tonight's Special: all fruity cocktails half off!

Fruity drinks always were Marlene's favorite. She liked watching the mixing process, loved drinking the finish products (minus the alcohol for little girls like her), and almost always ended up snacking on any extra fruit lying around. Marlene would have a great time here tonight.

With a smile lingering on her face at the thought, she wipes her hands and takes her place behind the bar.

You knew he'd be in soon enough.

After all, the bar's got great central air. Or whatever it is that keeps this place comfortable.

Los Angeles is pretty wonderful, but not during the summer months. That's when the heat is at it's hottest and just because he can take it doesn't mean he wants to. As such, when the door opens from the family restaurant, he doesn't so much walk in as run in and settle at the bar with the first thing on his lips a request just for a cold glass of water.

The Warden isn't in his usual, just a white t-shirt and jeans, but he figures he's due for a bit of security time so he can stay here a bit longer.

There's a loud buzzing zapping sound, and Steed is flung backwards into the bar.

There's no obvious cause outside; just an old van, not even surrounded by people. Parked on the grass, no signs of cables or wires.

Nevertheless, he appears to be unconscious.

Vyvyan has found something dog-sized and fluffy. It happens to be Wellington, dressed in an apron, and stuck in a corner at a loss as to what to do.

Currently Vyv is flicking anything he can find at the Womble to see what he does. Objects range from peas to spoons.

Duo is finally back on active duty! He has his laptop at a table, and is tying up some loose ends. He doubts he'll be doing anything too intense for another week or so, but it's so good to not be trapped at a desk anymore.

He's still wearing his uniform, but is not noticeably armed.

Anyone who is more than passingly familiar with him might notice that his braid is a good half a foot shorter than it usually is.

Guppy finally managed to get a batch of wedding invitations that hadn't got wet or badly eaten. This lot have had the corners chewed off, but all the vital information is still there.

He leaves a pile at the bar for:

( Atton and Gavin, Sam Linnfer and Medusa, Will and Kate, Alex and Rapunzel, Zhaan and Stark, Amanda, Ginny, Sooty and Gil, Miniver Cheevy, Peter Venkman, Malcolm Crowe and Demeter, Mia and Draco, Momiji, Ilyana, Teja, Antman [anyone I missed out] )

He settles at the bar with an orange juice and the day's paper.
