Happy Hour and a Bottle of Rum

[readsthearticles]

Billy's still undecided on the reality of this place. He still more than half figures that he hit his head on his way out of the captain's cabin and is laid out dreaming strange dreams. But hell, there's no point in standing around and arguing the point. Here he is and he might as well look around a bit.

He'd napped in a booth in the corner and when he ordered breakfast received with it a polite note--with instructions to come back in the afternoon and tend bar. With specials.

He writes SPECIALS up on the board in a tidy round hand...and then runs out of imagination for what the specials might actually be. So, uh, welcome to Happy Hour. With unspecified Specials. Provided by the big lad with his sleeves rolled up, currently standing behind the bar pulling out bottles at random.




((Hullo! Thanks to everyone who welcomed Billy! I admit I'm kinda running out of steam for Wow I'm New Here What Is This Place threads--is it okay if we handwave/let those drop? I'd love to pick up new conversations, I just have such a hard time holding up too many OMG I Don't Believe This Place What Is It threads at the same time...))

Sinric comes into the bar from the garden, barefoot with daisy chains in his long blonde hair. In a loose linen tunic that falls to his knees, Sinric is easy to mistake for a woman.

He smiles to the rather muscular individual behind the bar. "Beautiful day."


{ooc: happy to drop the thread with Jay.}

"Yeah? I haven't been out yet. There...is an out, right?"

He'd be faintly concerned for the safety of a girl like that in a tavern--is faintly concerned--but who knows, she's probably tougher than she looks.

"Oh yes." Sinric lights up with a smile. "A lake and gardens. And in the mountain beyond there are many beautiful glades and private places. Perfect for wandering."

"Huh. Anyone living out there?"

Oh, right, tending bar. He waves a hand towards the bottles. "Get you anything?"

"The mermaid of the lake and the demon rabbits of the hills. But other than that, I don't believe so. People got off to explore sometimes. Or journey into the Labyrinth and are not seen for some weeks. But I don't know if anyone who has made a home outside the Bar."

"Oh, forgive me." Sinric nods. "A glass of wine would be lovely, if you would be so kind."
