Bartending

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

As they say, duty calls.

'Duty' here meaning 'bartending' because Lady Bar deserves some shut-eye'.

So there is a sliiiiightly out-of-place pilot behind the bar, putting up specials.

SPECIALS
Sky Pilot
B-52
Irish Hammer
Drinks free if you outdrink the bartender

Yes, that's a challenge.

"Aye, course I am."

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"Splendid."



Aaaaand there's their second round.

"What's your name?"

[will_scarlett]

"Will Scarlett o'Nottingham an yerself?"

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"'Mad Dog' Maguire," comes the reply, just barely missing being muffled as Maguire downs the shot.

[will_scarlett]

Will nods as he downs the next one,

"Maguire, ye out o'Ireland, then?"

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"Yee-ep. And damn proud of it."


Even if he hasn't been back there in ages.

[will_scarlett]

"What's yer year then an let's 'ave 'nother?"

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"1946. And y'self?"

And, you know.

Two more shots.

[will_scarlett]

First the shot is downed,

"Reign o'King Richard the Lion'eart, serve Robin o'Locksley."

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

This is cause for a rather gleeful laugh on Maguire's part.

"That'd explain rather a lot about your name."

[will_scarlett]

"Oh aye, though 'e's the 'ero na me. Good drink this."

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"Hero's nothin' without the supportin' cast."

[will_scarlett]

"I'm just meself, pour out 'nother."

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"Perfectly fine self t' be."

Which is true.

And are those two more shot glasses I spy?

Naaaw.

[will_scarlett]

Good stuff indeed and Will offers up another clink,

"Aye an what do ye do?"

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

A grin.

(The I do what I like and I like what I do and I'm damn good at it grin.)





"I fly."

[will_scarlett]

Will just laughs, pilots are good fun, almost as much as outlaws,

"Then ye're mad."

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"Got that right."

It's said in all cheerfulness, downing his next shot and laughing.

Flying is nothing if not his life.

[will_scarlett]

Another laugh and another shot,

"Need some madness, makes life more interestin'."

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"Makes life interestin', period."

Madness is SPARTAAA a bit of a necessity.

[will_scarlett]

"Oh aye. Ye e'er tried rum?"

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"Y'sure the better question i'n't if I 'aven't tried anythin'?"

Because he is a regular around bars.

[will_scarlett]

"Oh aye?"

That would be another challenge, Maguire.

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"We could flip through the drink book?"

[will_scarlett]

"Or try a few bottles?"
