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.

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?"

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"What, ask Lady Bar for a mystery bottle an' try t' identify it?"

[will_scarlett]

"Ye're be'ind there, tis lots o'bottles."

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

"Fair 'nough."


And Maguire ducks down, resurfacing with a bottle of -- of --

-- something.

[will_scarlett]

"That'll do, pour it out."

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

It's a gold colour, less clear than beer or a similar liquor, but shiny in the light.

(It's, well, pretty.)

Maguire pours out two shots, offering out glass to Will.

[will_scarlett]

Will takes it and grins,

"Cheers."

Then downs it, tastes a bit like mead but with an odd sort of bite.

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

Whatever it is, it's good, which might explain why Maguire is already pouring out the next round of shots.

[will_scarlett]

That's fine with Will, he likes this one too and starts humming happily.

[mad-dog-maguire.livejournal.com]

Drinking songs?

Maguire just grins, listening to Will's tune as he keeps pourin' 'em out.

[will_scarlett]

And lo there were drinking songs, he has a nice tenor voice,

"Oh, a dragon's a very fine fellow when 'e's got a maiden beside 'em..."
