Oct. 13th, 2010 09:24 amparkerleeParker is hiding.
Going AWOL. Shirking her duty. Playing hooky. Etcetera. Everyone has rough patches at work and Parker (and her coworkers) are in the middle of one in the form of a bridezilla who wants the outdoor ranch version of a wedding in the Sistine Chapel.
Today the freak-outs were about the menu, and the possibility that less than pristine smells might drift over from the barns during the ceremony and reception. Parker has had it, and is taking a much needed breather.
(She feels a little bad for her coworkers who can’t hop to the End of the Universe for a break, but dammit, she has an out and she’s taking it.)
Parker is reclining on a sofa with her feet up, a library book, and two kittens (one red tabby, one grey tabby) curled up on her stomach. And she plans to remain in this position for the next two hours, or until she needs a snack, whichever comes first. She’ll go back to being a responsible adult in a while.
She wouldn’t mind a chat, so long as the subject isn’t weddings.
[OOC: Open all day. Unexpected work-related slowtime warning in effect.]

Oct. 13th, 2010 01:27 pmcrabbycustomerIt's dark, just before dawn, and Karkat is outside, lurking. (He doesn't mean to lurk, but he's got a lurk-friendly color pallette.) He found this outdoors area earlier, and he's had a good time prancing around with his sickle being all adorabloodthirsty venting his constant frustrations, but he'll have to go inside soon. Even if the human sun seems milder than his world's, he's not going to take the risk.
But for now, here he is. The stars are wrong--neither the stars of home nor the ones they lit up to sign their names to the human universe--and the moon is kind of eerie, small and pale and lonely compared to Alternia's huge pink and green satellites, but the homicidal and carnivorous wildlife is comfortingly familiar. He's cleaning demon bunny blood off his sickle by the waterside.

pickyourmomentsChandler walks through the door and goes straight to the Bar. After a conversation with Bar, he writes something down and gives it to her.
He gets a chocolate Yoo-hoo for the road, and gets up and leaves.

Oct. 13th, 2010 02:41 pmthe_cupbearerGanymede steps into Milliways today with a wooden crate held between his hip and his arm, a folder of adhesive labels laid on the top of it. He's dressed in very casual clothes, just jeans and a simple shirt rolled up to bare his arms; there's dirt under his nails.
He takes a seat on a couch, setting the box down with a gentle clink of blue glass bottles, all filled with a sweet wine and corked as well as wax-capped in dull silver. He picks up the labels--white rough paper and silver script--running his fingertips over them for a moment before peeling away the backing to affix them to the smooth bottle sides.

Breakfast (Alba is 23)

chronodisplaced.livejournal.comShe was not sad to watch herself (from a year ago) leave this morning.
It was an awful few months and she would much rather not remember them again, thank you.
So, that leaves one Alba (twenty-three, dark hair pinned up in a bun, in polka-dotted pajama pants and a gray thermal pullover) sitting in a booth with a few books, her journal, a lap blanket of brightly crocheted granny squares and breakfast.
(Bar insisted. And she doesn't argue with her.)

Oct. 13th, 2010 04:59 pmisaprofessionalSherlock's next entrance in the bar is anything but unobtrusive.
The telltale shriek of Mrs. Hudson follows him in through the recently appeared door before he sweeps in, expecting his personal quarters.
Milliways is rather unexpected, understandably, and his quickly changing expression reflects that, as does the subsequent concealing of a still-smoking gun.
"Insufferable harridan," he mutters, exchanging gun for pipe within the depths of his ratty maroon robe, and proceeds to move rather decisively in the direction of his favorite overstuffed chair by the fireplace.

Bartending
Oct. 13th, 2010 05:46 pmmagneticxmanLorna had only intended to come in to grab some chocolate for after dinner. Instead of that goal, she found herself confronted with a note from the bar. It was accompanied by an apron. She read the note, then laughed, slipping behind the bar.
This was bound to be pretty fun. After a moment, she wrote the three drinks she knew how to make on the Specials board
Specials!
Rum and Coke
Anything with Vodka
Irish Coffee
She nodded in approval at the board, and began reading the mixed drink book behind the bar, to parse out some other drinks she could make.

Oct. 13th, 2010 05:54 pmmakesthingsSam's by the fire with a warm spiced one and a book about locks. He has lots of ideas of how to make the lock work for Mia, but he's not sure which one is best. When things get to this point, being in the forge can make it worse as he keeps trying things that don't work properly.
Since he was in the forge earlier in the day, his linen shirt still has a good layer of grime on it, but his breeches and boots are slightly cleaner, the fire's helped dry the mud he collected while going back and forth in the mud today.

Oct. 13th, 2010 06:28 pmasingledropleft.livejournal.comEdward is in the bar proper tonight...asleep.
This might defeat the purpose of him being in the bar, but when one is warm and feels safe one is apt to sleep anywhere and the rats have kindly been leaving him well enough alone.
That's not to say however that someone could wake him up.
Should probably wake him up. there's a plate of food in front of him that's going cold.
Isn't bar thoughtful?

Weaving, weaving
Oct. 13th, 2010 06:46 pmdeath_gone_madWith the help of Ben Grimm, Lorna Dane, and Ryu Hayabusa, [plus a few others, mainly Handy and Wavey] work on the training grounds and obstacle course has been going well. Especially with the stack of plans Sensei Hayabusa provided.
They are an interesting bunch of characters.
Between her work here and the work on her world, even if it consists of only saying, "Fuck off and kill x amount of y monster, they annoy me," she hasn't slept much. Sleep isn't necessary, but it is nice.
There is one tan-skinned, red-haired, and red-eyed woman at a table weaving a trapeze net. And trying not to nod off to sleep.

Oct. 13th, 2010 09:20 pmgorgonfondnessOnce he got used to this whole "world" thing he's had to put up with, Cepheus has been a really easygoing baby. Or at least, his parents were able to handle everything he was figuratively throwing at them.
But Mia doesn't know what's gotten into Cepheus today. He's been fussing and crying almost nonstop and she can't figure out why.
And she has to work tomorrow.
She's claimed a rocking chair in a quiet, secluded part of the fireplace area and she's trying to calm him down with every technique she's learned in the last seven months.
Sorry for any excess noise.
