[Day 205] It's the end of the world, get drunk

Who: Georges and anyone about
Open: Open
When: 205 sometime in the afternoon
Where: Around the Monument
What: The Cael way of celebrating everyone not dying involves booze, so drink up! (Fun fact: the Cael way of mourning may also involve booze.)
Format: Any
Warnings: Drunken shenanigans, likely. Also feel free to treat this like a mingle thread and not just talking to Georges! (Although he'll try to chat with everyone if he can)


So, just to double check: A cure has been found? Everyone's recovered? No one's dead? It's safe to leave the house now? Excellent.

With this fact well known, one can find Georges starting off his morning not hanging about the bar (as is his custom as the only bartender in the Bastion) but in fact setting up something in front of the Monument. Tables, chairs, some blankets to sit on when those inevitably run out... There's also something of a makeshift bar area, a variety of liquor in fascinating bottles set up along with some glasses.

Everything is all finished up around the afternoon, and Georges goes behind his little makeshift table-bar to cup his hands around his mouth so he can yell-

"DRINKS ON THE HOUSE!"

...What do you mean he technically never makes anyone pay for booze at the end of the world? Just come up and have a drink, Georges will be happy to recommend something. Or maybe bother someone else having a drink?

[AZ will happily wander over to the 'bar'.]

... I take it you're in good spirits.

[Hooray terrible puns.]

[Oh look it's someone new. Rob's left his coat and backpack behind in an attempt to not sweat so much and has forced himself to come to this little event in an attempt to be social with his new neighbors. Considering his only previous experience with going to a bar was less than enjoyable it wasn't easy for him to come at all, but he's here now and wondering how long it'll be before he regrets coming.

For Georges:

Rob walks up to the "bar", takes one look at the actually really interesting bottles that back home he would probably collect the empties of and display but here knows that they'll need to be reused, realizes he has even less idea what any of them are than he would in a bar back home, and decides to ask the bartender. When he does speak... his voice is low and kind of hard to hear, regardless of how much background noise there is.]

Hey, um, are any of those sake, mead, or vodka?

[For everyone else:

New guy. At the farthest table. Watching the goings-on and taking occasional sips from a glass. Alone. Go say hi.]

[From the entrance of the Bastion could be seen a lone figure approaching; considering the familiar nature of the hooded cloak, one might mistake it for Gasfella that had wandered a little too close to home, but closer inspection would find the individual to be distinctly more...human. A pair of metallic gauntlets attached to the person's hand might give his identity away to those who knew him, but now that he was home, he pushed the hood back and smiled as he took in a deep breath of that fresh Bastion air.

Ippo had left without a word nearly two weeks ago after his chat with Zuko. He was uncentered, unfocused, and at best a danger to others as well as himself. He had needed to isolate himself, to properly contemplate himself and his place at the Bastion; as well as to further hone his skills against the beasts of the wilds, and it showed on his person.

He was fortunate enough to have found a discarded gasfella cloak on the ground during his travels, and with his shirt having been utterly destroyed, he had opted to wear it and found that it was large enough to keep him warm. It did leave his shoulders and arms exposed, showing that he had three jagged scars running from the top of his right shoulder and down behind the cloak, possibly stopping at his chest; even under his left eye could be seen a rather straight looking scar that stopped just short of his ear. His hair looked even longer now, painting a messy picture that almost completely covered his eyes, and over all he just seemed...bigger, his muscles compact, but now bulging against his skin without any help from him whatsoever.

Much to his surprise, there seemed to be a festival going on...or at least there was a party of some sort. The boxer walked up to the makeshift bar that Georges had set up and gave a wave to the friendly bartender, taking the nearest seat that was available with an exhausted sigh.
]

I think...I'll have a Hearty Punch, if we still have some of that left.

[After all those cold nights out in the bushes...he could use something that would warm him up.]

Apart from that though...what's got everyone so festive? Did I miss something?

[A little later AZ is wandering around with... quite a large glass of alcohol in his hand. It takes a lot to get him drunk, okay? On the other hand Floette is sitting on his shoulder, sipping at a tiny bit of alcohol poured into a leaf.]

[She's old enough and it's kind of nice sometimes. Shh.]

[ Georges: Is there a stool or something at your bar that Anna can climb up on? Because she will and watch him. Don't mind the obviously underage child. ]

[ Open: Bugging the bartender done, Anna has her wagon and firebug at one of the tables. She's mostly just watching everything. ]

"I think most people would prefer drinks sliding down their throat to a peaceful, if temporary, home within their liver," Colin said, approaching, out of his environmental suit for the first time in over a week. "Splashing drinks all over the house just seems like such a waste."

He gives Georges a grin.

"Daiquiri, if you're familiar with the drink," he says. "If not, I'll just have to show you how to make it."

[ Now that the plague is cured, anyone can get near Tris without risking getting zapped. Chime is perched happily on her shoulder again, occasionally flaring her wings to better catch sunlight, because she's a little glass attention hog like that. ]

If you've anything that won't get me drunk, that would be good.

[ Once that's settled, she'll pick an edge table and settle there. ]

[It's good to see people out and about again, especially those who were sick, but Zuko is not so sure about participating herself. The last party of any kind that she went to ended in fire and destruction (but thankfully no deaths). Plus she doesn't even drink.

She's just going to linger in sight of the Monument for a little while. Drag her over?]

[ All alive and well - at least physically - Duke is back in the usual turtleneck and pants. The knight still looks a little worse for wear, but that's what you get for catching plague. ]

Something that doesn't burn that much would be great.

[ Because coughing is still very uncomfortable.

Drink in hand, the knight settles sort of in the middle of the tables.

"Sake? Please say you have sake..." Seimei's voice rasped, still raw from so much coughing. He had no business drinking when he was still in the process of recovering his strength. Not that he cared. He wanted a drink and while nothing really got him drunk, he wanted to taste that sweet ambrosial burn and relax his tension and wander in search of Kaoru and...

Well, he wanted to set some things right, but a little liquid courage could do anyone some good, really. At least he didn't look like a corpse anymore, washed and combed. His hair was still loose, flowing around him in a black sheet, but he didn't feel like asking anyone for help with it and was just grateful to be on his own two feet.

[ She hasn't had any drinks yet, though at some point she'll likely get curious and try at least something. For now, Kohaku was just wandering around the area and observing everyone who had turned up. Eventually, she finds a place to sit. She hasn't tried to say hello to anyone just yet, content for the moment to just watch.

She does look a little lonely, though.

Please, come say hello. ]

Being unable to talk to most people meant she had to be resourceful, so now Zarina wandered around with a pencil she whittled down to a little thinner, easier to use, and a scrap of paper. Of course, she was drawn to the noise, and the people, and the shiny glass bottles. Fairies... didn't really have alcohol, but if there were nice things to drink she'd definitely want something.

She still hadn't found a dollhouse tea set to have a cup.

She unfurled her paper and put it on the ground to scribble on it with her pencil, looking vaguely like a human would with a mop.

Berry Juice? or Tea?

[Whenever the word alcohol is brought up, you can bet your bottom shard you'll find a Cael somewhere close by. They were a hearty people that loved their drink as much as their craftsmanship, and Raile was no exception. However, today he wasn't drinking to celebrate so much as he was just drinking in general; he'd pilfered a bottle of Bull Brandy and was idly drinking from it, a hand on his chin and a distant look in his eye as he gazed off into the distance.

Feel free to talk to him, although he might be a little short on the conversational end. Or maybe suggest that an entire bottle of heavy booze isn't the best thing to be drinking all at once.

[Kids with heart conditions shouldn't drink.

Kids in generally shouldn't drink but like Georges is paying attention to that little fact.

Luckily for Haruka, though, he was insistent enough that alcohol would probably kill him and Colin would probably kill Georges for it that the barkeep willingly handed him something non alcoholic.

So the messy haired teenager (finally in clothes that wasn't a hospital tunic, but still probably a size too big) can be found enjoying his drink quietly in a corner.

Not because he's being antisocial. Because hes drawing the crowd and the various faces within it.]

[Jay is sitting on the bar, sipping the fruitiest drink he could find and swinging his legs. Occasionally, he starts singing, quietly. He's got a pretty good voice, but is clearly untrained. He'd be looking for a violin if he was certain people would know what he was talking about.]

[He's feeling rather chipper, but it's all the alcohol's work. Now that the plague is over and he isn't needed any more, he was starting to slump back into depression.]

[To be honest she doesn't feel like celebrating much. It was good news to find that there was a cure and nobody had died. Yet this warrior was still deeply saddened by the loss of her friends and all the worlds they'd fought to protect. It's not a thing she's ever sure she'll be over.

But Edea knows there's only so much good laying about in her apartment can do her (or anybody). At least here she can see what the other residents are like. She's just going to sit out of the way and people watch.]

[the plague left him a little deflated and peaky, but he's just happy to be around other people, even though he should be restsing.

He sits on a stool by the bar, looking over the bottles curiously... but everything he's heard about Cael booze has kind of put him off - Squirt extract, who in their right mind would drink that?]

[Wherever Kaoru and Seimei are these days, Hikaru's not far behind. He's got a careful eye on both of them, and it's a bit hard to unwind when you're still scared someone is going to drop dead at a moment's notice.

As usual, Hikaru's uncertainty gets translated into obnoxiousness. He'll be hanging over people's shoulders and getting in the way of just about everyone, and that includes the guy at the bar. Hopefully Georges won't be too upset by a red-haired brat winding up on his side of the bar, poking at the drinks.]

[ Well, Naegi'd had enough of being cooped up in his apartment after the initial outbreak to the point that once he's learned that people are feeling a lot better now, he'd decided to just come out to relax a little.

Though part of him feels bad that he hadn't really done much of anything during that time... should he be here? This thought is probably why you'll just see him being a quiet wallflower just watching all the people having fun, really... ]
