[Out of Milliways: "Someone gave me a radiation suit. Why did someone give me a radiation suit?"]

Shephard wanders through the door whistling to himself, Mrs. Wilson the houndeye puppy in tow. It's been a good day, oh yes it has. New explosives and a whole new school of cussing? Very definitely a good day.

Nevertheless there are people back home who maybe don't want to see him so much right now, so he's just gonna mosey on out the back door and play with his eyeball puppy for a while, mm'kay?

While not one usually to succumb to such things, Dominic has taken one of the couches by the fire, back against one of the arms, legs stretched out on the seat. There's a folder on his lap, and he's going through the contents in a somewhat detached manner. He's slightly more involved in the fact that the jukebox (apparently dormant - or at least in a good mood - for the moment) has begun playing an aria, and he's always had a terrible weakness for opera. If you think he's humming along to it, it may not be completely your imagination.



Dick Winters is sitting at the bar, with a glass of water by his elbow that has largely been abandoned (although not on purpose). His boots are hooked up on the rungs of the stool he's sitting on, and on the counter in front of him are spread a couple of maps. He's trying not to take up too much room, but if he's in your way, feel free to tell him to move.



Although he's still not the biggest fan of the bar (it's a variable quantity, and he likes constants when it comes to his everyday life), Topher's learning how to settle in. And, okay, he still doesn't really like the rats (they're neat and all, but they're still kind of bizarre), and Bar still freaks him out, but really, he's doing better. Today finds him holed up in a booth with an old-school GameBoy and a number of cartridges, which, incidentally, are his own, and not Bar-provided.



Michael has recently discovered that his brother-in-law is posing as an English nanny in order to try to bond with his daughter. Understandably, he is not in the best of moods about this, especially since Tobias' attempts to get himself discovered have been growing increasingly distressing. When he comes in, he makes a beeline directly for the bar and gets himself a glass of scotch. He tries not to drink (his mother already drinks more than enough for the whole family), but some days, it's just hard.



The possibilities that Bar offers are endless, and Paul has never been one not to take advantage of that. Or at least, up until he got his bar tab. Remarkably, it isn't that high (he's been bailed out a couple of times and he's never had anything more exotic than an Aqua Velva - and not even those recently), so he's decided to pay it off now. As such, the contents of his pockets litter the space in front of him, ranging from ticket stubs to spare change to newspaper clippings.



Having secured a table, Septimus is sitting with his feet propped up on one of the empty chairs, spurs for once not on his heels but in his hands. (They were his father's, once.) Chances are he wouldn't mind a conversation, but this tends to vary from second to second.

A metallic, sliding door opens in the bar room, and out comes General Grawl.   Tall, muscular...green.  Yes, green.  He removes his sunglasses, and squints his eyes as he glances at his surroundings.  "This can't be right..."  Deciding now is a good time to turn back, the door disappears with a strange 'poof' sound.  While Grawl seemed somewhat calm at first, how he would stand upright with his arms behind his back, the way he squinted his left eye seemed to show just how annoyed he was at the situation.  With a sigh, he turned around to face the bar again, deciding to explore his surroundings.  "No matter, I'll just find out where I am.  I'm sure I can get back to Base Nine from here."  With that, he sharply looked for anybody close by.  "...which very much is a lie and I am lying at the moment...yes."

Paperwork

Abe has found a nice quiet corner to hole up with his coffee and his stack of mission reports. 

There's only one thing he hates more than frog cultists.  That's paperwork.  

But he's been putting it off so long, Kate actually gave him a half-hearted speech about professionalism and keeping up with his end of the bargain.  He'd given her a long look, and she'd backed down, saying it was her job as liaison to give him hell about things like that.   And so, reluctantly, he'd promised he get caught up.

It's going to take another pot of coffee and maybe some of one of those cheese danishes to help him get through it.

When the door swings open, a fresh breeze rolls in, bringing with it the scents of violet and rose, and then she is here.

Her hair is swept into a messy, elegant knot, her limbs are long and lithe, and her little black dress is rather chic. It may not be a special occasion per se, but why let that stand in the way of being fabulous?

Aphrodite slides into a seat at the Bar, easy and smooth, and crosses one leg over the other as she surveys the crowd.

"A Sea Breeze, sweetie," she says to Bar with a smile. "If you please."

The door opens on a scene of fading smoke and chaos. It's a typical day at the Medic's work place. Naturally, he's been busy today, but when he sees the Bar standing empty, he shrugs a little. He can handle being busy somewhat longer.

Teja is working today, folding steel in the forge.

His hammer is ringing on the anvil, sparks flying, hissing in the open cask of water beside the fire.

The door is wide open, the cats are lounging in the sunshine, and on the open door, there is a hand-written sign:

Blades -- ornaments -- implements

Made to order -- in stock -- repaired

Help welcome!

Whosoever works a shift at the bellows for me, shall be paid in tab.


Anybody is welcome, even if they are merely curious.

The kid who stomps in, rolling his eyes, has keys jingling in one hand and his teeth grinding almost audibly; he was not intending to wander into a cross-dimensional watering hole.

If the last few months attested to anything, however, it was that what John Wayne Cleaver 'intended' was not always how things ended up. In fact, it was rarely the case. Usually, he was confounded by the fact that People Made No Sense. Today, something greater was apparently at work.

He stops, looks around, and instantly jams the keys into his pocket. Then he taps the ground with one foot, making sure he's on terra firma, before taking the next step.

Ladies and gentleman, there is a newbie in the bar.
