BARTENDING

*Bernard. In the bar.

At the Bar.

Taking orders.

Imagine that.*

[ooc: Clarice gets a flat in the Staff Wing; Tom Riddle gets a scotch and an update on Bernard's love life, which is rather awesome; Sunny is imperious and snuggly and calls Bernard Daddy for the first time; Tony is depressed (OMG SHOCK AND AWE); Ace is seduced away from Tim with Vegetable Korma; Tim and Bernard talk about Security issues, including Faith and Barty Crouch, and Bernard pricks at Tim's conscience without meaning to; Laini is over-friendly; Q offers his services in the future; the Trips get cockroaches and a knife; Ginny's just plain nice and talkative; and Raph and Bernard talk about EVERYTHING (definitely worth a read).]

"Anything. We Q are omnipotent."

Uh.

Golly.

And what do you charge for the service?

He shrugs. "Depends on what you want. Mostly I do things because it sounds amusing or because I'm bored."

And if you do want payment...?

"Usually it would be something you'd have to work at, to keep you from taking me for granted."

[the-woodpecker.livejournal.com]

Well.

I can't see that happening.

But that's good to know.

He chuckles. "Good. I'd hate to have to teach you a lesson."

[the-woodpecker.livejournal.com]

So would I, I think.

"I can't imagine the bar or patrons would be happy either."

He downs the drink and slaps a 1oz silver coin lightly on the counter. Emblazoned on it is the NCC-1701-E on the face, Q's face on the reverse.

"Have a good night, Bernard."

He vanishes.

*The Bar absorbs the coin, and, feeling inexplicably unnerved, Bernard turns to deal with another patron.*
